Coming back from other projects and general IRL work.
I looked at this project mocking me with only 1/3 of a base project even functioning. I decided to at least sit down and get to 2/3 before the end of the year.
- Room Tier 2 is up and functioning.
- Recipe Tier 2 can be purchased and crafted.
- Created Tier 2 assets.
- Simplified Upgrade Menu options. Original version would have you purchase every single recipe individually at various prices. This had layers of functions and for loops checking your Faction, Tier levels, etc. every time the menu was open. I decided it would be simpler to just buy recipes in bulk based on tier. This reduced the number of checks and edits taking place.
- Bug Fixes. Upgrading from Tiers would unlock the Tier slots in your inventory, however, these checks were happening infinitely in the background. Set flags to ensure they only happen once.
Even if I have learned tons of lessons from other test projects. Coming back to my first project has been a struggle, since I keep finding issues I should have easily fixed. Some of these problems are more ingrained in the original than others. Like unraveling a knotted ball of twine, fix one loop just to find out it was tied to 20 other lines.
