General Progress Report
Added 2018-06-13 03:48:28 +0000 UTCManaged to get a solid three hour block of work in this morning. In that time, I did a bit of writing for Wanton Cove, but mostly worked on bug reports. Really happy with what all got accomplished. Coming up on 8k words of new content for the next build BEFORE counting the rewriting that's been done this week.
In other news, the coder who is working on the poker mechanic sent me the core code for handling the cards today and was kind enough to walk me through how some of that works. What this amounts to is this is the code that tracks cards, what's dealt, what's in the deck still, what's in the discard pile, all of that. The next step is to create rule sets for the various games we want to present. (We've talked about BlackJack, 5-card, 7-card, and Uno for sure, but are entertaining the idea of additional games as well.) Once that's done, we can get to work adding it to the game. My goal is to add it to Inheritance first, then probably Wanton Cove before creating a separate game just for playing poker (This would allow us to play strip poker with characters from any of our games. You choose the players, the game, then play!)
I'll be busy all day tomorrow, so I don't expect to get much of anything done tomorrow. Thursday is up in the air, I might get to work, I might not. After that, I have the new build of Inheritance coming out on Friday and it should be work as usual come Monday.
Have yourselves a wonderful evening!
