Yes, take the time you need.
Nothing is more useless than programming under stress. It causes bad code and more bugs.
I planned a timeline for the mod i am programming atm.
+ 1 Month (Moving to Switzerland)
+ 3 Weekends (Mother in hospital, will have to help the old father)
+ 1 Weekend (was ill)
+ Next time killer = new girl friend??? + 4 months? ^^
Planned 6 months, because i dont want to copy code. Current realistic timeframe: 8 months
This was just the private life, which prevents from programming. No influences by bugs, arma updates or any other mistakes.
Modders are the things, because they have fun when they script. Modders are doing a favor fot the community - not a job.
If you have any chance for keeping the release secret, than do it.
If you need help by the community, than say it. :-)
