General Progress Report

Don't have as much to report as I would have liked, but I wanted to share all the same.

I received a bug report for several issues related to Wanton Cove.  A couple of them had already been addressed, a couple were easy fixes.  But the others were a code heavy issue that I simply didn't have the patience to run down this evening.  On the other hand, once I am able to track it down in one place, it should only take moments to run down the problem in the other places it appears.

Since I didn't want to mess with code this evening, but I DID actually feel the urge to work on something small, I instead wrote a few small scenes for Inheritance.  Nothing substantial, but there were a couple of them that were a lot of fun.

Tomorrow:  It looks as if I'll have a couple of hours on my hands tomorrow evening.  My plan will be to run down those Wanton Cove bugs that remain during that time.  If I experience no further problems with it, then the delay shouldn't affect the release date I had previously estimated of the 15-16th.  If it DOES affect it, then I still expect to release before the weekend.  Either way, you guys will be receiving a new update some time this week for Wanton Cove.

Once the Wanton Cove bugs have been dealt with, then I received a short bug list for Inheritance (Couple of spelling errors mostly) that should only take a few minutes to work through.  Once I have done so, I'll release a new build of Inheritance to testers on the grounds that grayelf rebuilt the entire movement system (Then to the rest of you a few days later if nothing is reported), and while I've spent about an hour combing over everything to see if I stumbled across any bugs, I figured letting all of you have a chance to take a look will both let everyone enjoy the improvements, even if it wont affect the content much.  Never hurts to have a few extra sets of eyes on something after all.

In the coming week and beyond:

At present, I get to work on projects 2, sometimes 3 times a week (Tonight was maybe an hour.  Short stretches like that don't really count.  I'm talking about days where I get to work on a project +4 hours uninterrupted.)  Late this week, my kids go back to school.  This means I'll have more time to work on things in the coming months.  I'll be shooting for four days a week starting next week.  That said, it looks like this week will be a three day week for work (Should have Thur-Sun.  I want to work three of those.)

And now you guys know as much as I do.   Have yourselves a wonderful evening!
