• Mob bases should always spawn now, those also should not disappear whilst mining
• Now the target appears correctly when switching between regular/ability combat
• The target also now disappears when out of reach (love how the dust settles after)
• Debris should fall in a more controlled fashion and not all over the place (less velocity those have)

Wanted to add a long chain between the player and the target (to better visualize the path), but scrapped it after realizing how awful it looked (as you move the mouse around).

Currently it does nothing, but can go from close to a range; depending on how far you wish to go.

Also, added a little bit of shake whilst mining (not sure if it stays or not):

It's the good ol' jump attack. Nothing fancy, just a quick and dirty work.

Also, now when mining, structures shouldn't disappear accidentally whilst mining near them. It's still a bug in the live version, and only will be patched with the next update; as there's no rush to fix it (it being super-late content).

• An additional console command was added to the list
• Known new bug: occasionally walls don't spawn, conditions are difficult to reproduce, needs further investigating (sometime in the future)
• Mob homes should no longer spawn in walls

• Minecarts no longer get stuck after getting hit (was an issue with the animation system, that also handles movement)
• Accidentally discovered that mobs, after touching water, remained in slow motion. Should be fixed now.

• the previous "jungle" generation from the last devlog
• minecarts and rails
• flying debris from mining, which can also drop items when mined

And some fixes from the last update:

• Projectiles now can hit minecarts (as well as the player themselves)
• Rocks now spawn when mining
• Rocks can now spawn flint when destroyed
• minor code restructuring for display tags (mob bar)
• Bunch of quick bug fixes for the live version
• Debris now mostly spawn to the sides around the player, at a more constant size
• And other bits forgot to mention

• Now you can push the cart on the rails, and nudge it very slow when not
• You can switch between 3 types of track: left, right, straight

While it's definitely not perfect, it is robust enough for a prototype. Switches and other useful bits are planned to be part of a commercial release, but not for a prototype. Now, time to make sure you can purchase and place the cart in-game (as currently the cart is being spawned in at the beginning), and be able to store ores and bring it home. Which is going to take a few days to code and test, especially knowing that mobs could attack the cart as well as destroy it (and loose a portion of the contents inside). See some of the progress below.

• Rails now can be rotated
• Canceling build now has an SFX
• A mirrored image is now shown above the soon-to-be-placed rail for better visibility
• Runestones were accidentally broken at some point, now are fixed

• Now there's a shortcut to quick build ("B")
• Wooden rails now can be placed (same damage principle applies as to braces)

While it's far from complete, as this was just a mere test (as it has a lot of kinks that need to be fixed), it has proven to be quite beneficial for future en-devours, to work out a different method of generating dungeons (as seen in the image). Overall more efficient and faster, which would result in less loading screens.

Now comes the next part: Assembling a tiny test world with procedural tiles. Where all will come together eventually. Would note that this will be the first addition to the prototype that won't effect gameplay at all, will only serve as a visual representation of what-it-supposed-to-be: Purely as a result of it being non-functional by not completing the underlying code. Otherwise it would in full swing, just right now it doesn't serve that intended purpose, other than giving space for trying out new concepts for generating content. Efforts are put best elsewhere.

While it's nothing remarkable, just yet, it already skips a lot of the traditional aspects of generation (like finding points for paths via pathfinding, angles, rotations, etc.), which means that this was made almost instantly; and can be extended forever. Now comes the rooms and should be good to go.

And to spice up things a little bit, to help the project (as it's currently going "nowhere" in terms of project goals), it is planned that the next release will be covered by a proper devlog on Youtube if possible (not sure yet, things are quite hectic around here). Not sure how or in what format, but probably something that would be nice to watch.

• Missing reference would crash the game on trying to throw gold
• Also, items no longer animate when thrown (that was an unintended feature)
  

The last few days were mostly spent fixing a bug that would crash the entire game at random. Turned out there was an issue with the AI routine, which needed to be tweaked in order to work. Lot of faff and back-and-forths, as it only showed up in the build most of the time. Hopefully, now its fixed.

• Console is working again (issue with keyboard focus)
• Slight increase in performance and AI routine, also mobs should get stuck less
• Slight tweak in spawn rates (structures)

• First cheat is in to help with debug/showing off
• Sample voices for the dwarf were added (for certain events)
• Structures are more rare now and boss mobs only spawn above a certain distance
• code fixing and others

• transparency logic got an update (behaves a tad better)
• added some slight bloom
• two structures are being added (modeled, textured and partially animated already) for the next update (exploration and who knows what) for which one of them is going to get a waterfall (see image below). The assets are half done, and under implementation.

• destroyed runes now restore water
• mobs no longer grab buff from other species
• cave-ins fixed
• small fixes here and there

• pixies now slow down in water
• damage to walls now retain when breaking an adjacent one
• pixies now do AOE damage
• UI tweaks

*an extra day added right before the announcement/video update of the next build, sheesh!
