Working update.
🕑 Added 2024-01-17 15:53:46 +0000 UTC*cough* I know I said I'd be doing these weekly, but honestly, there's not much else to update on. Work is going smooth and making fast progress.
To that end, Instead, I'll be updating you guys when there is some major change or something that I think you guys need to / would like to know about.
I'll also likely be deleting these "update" posts once the novel starts back up, to cut down on clutter.
Anyway, as for today's Update, I wanted to address an issue a few people have complained about before.
Standardizing the TAWP's size and description.
I'll freely admit, I haven't been to consistent in this. Mostly because sometimes I, myself end up forgetting, and partly because I realize there WASN'T an actual full on description of the TAWP in the novel. Some of the stats were mentioned here and there, but you have to kind of piece it together.
To that end, I went back to Lesson 3 and updated the description when it was first show. This also means that any FUTURE depiction of the TAWP will follow these standards too. Not ALL chapters have been updated yet, however, so new readers might find some jankyness still, but I'm working getting everything standardized as I work on the editing.
The text can be found below if you didn't want to go back and look.
Tell me what you think!
Unpacked, the TAWP frame could stand almost 15 meters at its tallest, supported on four heavily armored, beetle-like legs — though most of the time, the TAWP’s primary chassis rested a comfortable five meters off the ground. From the bottom to the top, the TAWP’s primary chassis was just over five meters thick.
From front to back, the chassis measured ten meters and port to starboard it measured roughly seven meters.The surface of the frame was a matte black-blue color in a scale-like pattern that shifted and rippled as the various nanite nodes along its surface adjusted, settling into their new configuration.
As Alpha’s orb-like AI core nestled into the TAWP’s heart, the frame’s systems coming fully online, several thick lines of teal light raced across its surface, slowly pulsing with power. The lines converged at the front of the frame, where the three bright red lights of its primary optical sensors flared to life. The optical sensor’s plate spun as adjustments were made, and Alpha ‘stretched’ the frame’s two chubby manipulator arms out, as if he had awoken from a deep sleep.
At its base form, the TAWP frame vaguely resembled a certain walking beetle tank from one of Alpha’s favorite retro video games—totally not the primary reason it was one of his favorites, nope.
