Very early ABC notation playback in Starbound
So, the secret feature Bartwe has been working on. What is it?
It's an entire in game music system!
You'll be able to craft musical instruments including a trumpet, violin, guitar, piano and drum. Once you've got one of these instruments you'll be able to hit various keyboard keys to play different notes. But more interestingly the instruments are able to read abc notation. Which you can read about here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABC_notation
Essentially you'll be able to share tunes with each other as regular text. Copy and paste them into your Starbound directory and your player will use his instrument to play the song in game. You'll be able to play songs in multiplayer and even synchronize different instruments with each other to form a band.
Here's a really early video of a song played on a trumpet. The animation isn't remotely finished and looks really bad. We need better samples and the timing isn't quite right yet. But it gives you an idea!
