The good, the bad, and the just plain ugly.
🕑 Added 2017-12-16 21:35:04 +0000 UTC I figured that with everything else I was posting yesterday, I'd spare you all the progress update and wait till today to catch you all up on what I'm up to right now.Yesterday, I spent some time writing for Inheritance. Got some smallish scenes written for Eve. After getting the quick fix for the game up last night, I started adding the new scenes to Inheritance in preparation for the next build of the game. In total, there's two fairly substantial sized interactive scenes, and two more that are fairly small.
One of these scenes will be a one time scene once its properly installed into the game, but for the next build its going to be repeatable. There are two reasons for this: 1. It will make it easier for players to explore that content in detail if its readily available. and 2. The code to run it as a one time scene hasn't been completed yet, so it can't be properly installed just yet.
The other three will be normal interactive scenes, all three of which is related to Eve.
Reason I didn't get those completely into the game yet is because I got pretty sick last night. Still pretty miserable since its only been getting worse, but one can't hide beneath the covers ALL day. Probably going to shoot for an early bed time today with the hope of feeling better tomorrow. (Look at the bright side, I wasn't going to work on anything this weekend anyway. :P )

Moving into next week:
Monday is going to be spent working on Inheritance. Hopefully I'll get everything working correctly and ready to go for the next build so we can release a new test build.
Tuesday and Wednesday will see my attention shifted to Wanton Cove as I start trying to get a little extra work done for that so we don't have a dead spell due to my trip.
Thursday is going to be pretty chaotic, so I'm not really expecting to accomplish much that day, though there is a chance I'll have a couple of hours in the morning to work.
The version of Wanton Cove currently in testing will be released late this coming week (Probably Friday). with the work I do in the coming days going towards the following build. Odds are this will be an scheduled post since I'll be on the road. Anything reported related to that build might take a couple of days to get around to fixing. You have been warned.
The week of Christmas:
I know most of you have heard this, but there are always a few new people around, so I want to say something for their sake: I leave on a road trip on Thursday this coming week. Two days drive time each way with a few days in the middle with family. I will most likely be gone from the 21st through the 29th. During that time, my time to work is going to be very limited, and it may take a day or more to respond to any messages in that time.
Just like next week's scheduled post for a release of Wanton Cove, Christmas week will likely include a scheduled post for the Inheritance release.
After the new year, things should settle back down to "normal" and my work schedule should become significantly more predictable again.

Also, I should probably mention the Inheritance Writing Contest again!

Now to return to the sweaty blankets that spawned me to lurk in their shadowy warmth until I either start to feel human again or life demands I slink back into the light once more.
