2 MAR 2024:
- I have a business trip the next two weeks, so I challenged myself to finish the carriers before I have to go.
- Carriers are done! I made some pretty significant changes to them this time around. The up and down carriers were being problematic so I removed them completely. For at least one of them, I would have had to rework the original Blender files to fix some issues and that would have taken who-knows-how-long.
- Carrier fighters can attack from up to 4 different directions. I wasn't entirely pleased with the old carrier fighter logic, so I created this new attack method for them which is much less math-intensive. And in my opinion it's a lot more interesting and fun.
- Scrapship is currently up to 11000 lines of code. There is only about 3000 lines of code left to transfer over and reintegrate.
- As for my sticky note on my monitor, the only things I have left are "Cargo Boss", "Final Boss", "AI" and "Other".
- 12 of the 16 sticky note tasks have been completed, so I'm about 75% done.
