When Sorrows Come They Come Not In Single Spies, But In Battalions
Tough day of debugging. Minotaurs were loading up an obsolete AI class, so even when spawning for the godzilla quest they were trying to navigate a maze. Had another conflated […]
Bugs
A funny thing happened on the way to the bar.. Nah, actually more bugs.
Well, something happened that is worthy of this devlog, and this is the only rightful place for the story. I thought about putting it on Facebook, but too nerdy and […]
A Fortnight of Quests

Made a function to filter for desired positions on criteria like distance from a point, distance from origin, init status of map/plan, etc. Broke the filter logic I had in […]

Grindin’ out that code
More cleanup of variable names and other minor stuff. Wish I could write it perfectly the first time. Introduced a new creature stat, vision, which allows them to see hidden […]
The minotaur seeks your flesh!
Was sick and/or busy for a while. The maze now picks some minimally-distant starting points for the entrance, some treaure, and a new beast, the minotaur. A* pathing has been […]
