okay .. so you aren't still in the process of building up the team but merely keeping the devolopment going if a position within the team becomes vacant.. ?
Not sure I'm reading that right.
Artists and coders ask to join the team when they see a position they feel that they can fill or we ask if someone would like to join the team if we feel they are a good fit.
The normal process is they are put into a department to have time to adjust to the dynamics of the team and once comfortable they are more than welcome to work in any area of the game that they are interested in.
Nounou is a good example as he joined as our 2d concept artist and now he is map making not because we asked him to but it's something he enjoys doing.
So if a position does open up or the individual responsible is not available, due to real life, then there is always someone around to fill in until we can find someone to fill the position.
If your asking does development stop until we fill a gap then no that does not happen.
Whoops
