I started moving in with my girlfriend 2 weeks ago, I got about halfway done, and then last week her lab announced that it was shutting down and everyone had 2 weeks's notice. So... yay, interrupted mid-move and I'll pretty much have to move again right away as soon as she finds a new job. There are...

My barren little office with everything crammed onto one desk :(
We've been stranded in moving mode for the past 2 weeks, so unfortunately I have not had much time to deal with the dev project. Good news is that Julian was able to work on it while my office was in wreckage (it still is, mostly) an...

- Added logic for ledge grabbing with and without a supporting wall underneath. Animations play correctly with transitional animation and hanging idle appropriate per ledge type.
- Added climbing up from hanging state on a ledge, and while it executes as directed, it looks a bit derpy....

- Added weapon select quick menu for right hand weapon.
- Updated shield to block bullets. Now it acts as a damage sponge, so that incoming damage is subtracted from your energy instead of health. Directional blocking also works.
- Updated HUD to include XP count.

Only the best in 1980s Solid State technology. This drone will seek you out and taser you if it gets too close.
I can smell that hot dusty metal smell already.

Finished the ladder stuff, so you can more easily climb onto and exit them, and figured out how to make them work in-level (for example, there will have to be a hole in the floor/ceiling to climb through). Matched animation speed so hands and feet move correctly in time with ladder rungs, though mat...

Made new ladders which can be dynamically scaled, meaning that the rungs and height are generated numerically and the collision is just one collision which scales according to the height of the entire ladder. This prevents problems passing from one ladder component to the next. Also tweaked the anim...

Made a fire extinguisher, which shoots out fog, which puts out fire. It has a cumulative effect on the fire as well, making it smaller, less damaging, and eventually puts it out completely.

Well I was excited to have a new build ready for you to goof around with on the weekend, but for some reason (and what fun, the logfile won't tell me why!) it refuses to build now.
