The failure must lie in Geany... Bob can find things Geany can't.... But which do turn out to be really there... How odd...

Bob keeps on finding things to build things without need.....

Increased max size for hashing to 5 MB

Oh, fuck it! I'm tired!

Not yet fully working the way it should, eh?

Also tied to Anyway (not that I expect to need that tool much, but just in case)

It does appear that somehow the scenario editor can push itself to the background.... This would explain a lot of failed builds and scenario blocks strangly getting back to their old settings....

Can now check if a build was a sucess or not

Updated script to also see Nala being updated

This DOES cause some extra crap to be rebuild, but hey, it's all for a good course... At least I wanna think so! XD

Enhanced with some better checking

Although I could with less heath, and I am more and more worried about my sleep with this fucking heath!

I've done some more testing, but did not lead to any new issues to work out

Added tag BOB

I'm putting Bob to the test

I've written a small program called "Bob" which is to be used in QuickNeil... You can see Bob as a kind of "Make" (the name Bob is not a coincidence.... Can we build it? Yes, we can!) only written in a way more adequate than MAKE. Make kept on doing stuff even when it was not needed... Bob was written from a different approach!

A few more fixups required

Well, that ends this investigation, my dear Watson

I hope this solves all issues, but ya can never know for sure, eh?

As far as I can tell most achievement appearing illegally were merely not correctly tagged... That should be fixed now.... Now that my current savegame is a bit messed up this is hard to check, but this will have to do

Let's list it out for real now, shall we?

Force log to show more info about now allowed achievements still being listed!

Several Syntax Errors

I cannot test that right away.... So this is something to be tackled later on

Auto-Achievements not supposed to be given in the True Abyss will no longer be given there...

And besides... I could use the distraction for awhile.... The project is beginning to bore me, but hey... I wanna finish what I started...

As this contains active content things may be a bit harder on me than for the True Abyss, and that's why I made the basics for Neil during the True Abyss....

As soon as this setup for the True Abyss is done I'll focus on the New Game+

I've been working out a good installer... C# is pretty much dependency based I found out to my horror... Well at least now Microsoft can take the blame if the game doesn't work

Wasted some time sorting things out for a good editor

It's not much... But at least it's something!

I've written a quick editor for Neil.... It also supports NIL (which was used for Dyrt), and SASKIA....

And let's see now!

System should not ask to "leave town" from the start level

Magically the changes to the scenario have been undone

Conchita And the start of a full test to make sure The True Abyss really works!

Conchita

Scenario fixes

Adaptions for Conchita

Config adaption

The logs tell me that one of the characters will indeed learn their supermove.... Before I can test that if that is absolutely true a few more things need to be taken care of first!

Super weapon given

Well, that works.... so far!

TAKE IX

Whatever

TAKE VIII

AI error

TAKE VII

...

Oh, crap

TAKE VI

Declaration issue

TAKE V

Idiocy

TAKE IV

AI configuration

Boss reference error

TAKE III

Put that in

Forgot Boss Activation zone

TAKE II

Some issue in NIL (that is given the circumstances not gonna be fixed anymore)

TAKE I!

Ready to test

A few more checkups

Abyss Guardian

Not yet ready to put everything to da test.... I still need to take care of the AI

Linked these

Game Jolt equivelent trophies

And 3 achievement based on your difficulity setting

I reject your reality and substitute my own

This is needed because his "secret form" will never unlock in the True Abyss

A special version of "Blue Moon" for Eric in the True Abyss

Boss fight can start, but it's not over yet!

Rebuilt Music resource

"Death and Axes" by Kevin McLeod will be used for the Abyss Guardian....

#pure and #endpure

Classwise ++ and --

It should be noted this will be second only to Juggernaut, the strongest boss of the entire game.... And no nerfings will be there... Especially given the way the True Abyss is set up with....

Abyss Guardian

with that the True Abyss can at least be played now from level 1 till 100, but some more stuff needs to be done before this is completely ready

All I can do now is testing if everything works, so let's go!

Adapted to origin (saves memory)

I've set the abyss compiler to automate the animation of the plasma floor.... The effect was asstoundingly good!

I've not yet put in the boss for security reasons, as I need to test a few things out first.....

Yes, that takes care of all areas, but I'm not nearly there yet!

Area 100 True Abyss

NeilProject/Neil#4 (Oh crap!)

QuickMeta support

Take II

Put that in

Forgot Start Exit Point

Take I

But that is a later concern

Yes, when it comes to the not-generated maps, that is the last one before the grand finale....

Area 095

Almost there... But some work is still to be done here!

All the others are in order!

Wrong weakness on Thunder Bulupu

Abilities

Meta settings

Bulupu can easily go wrong, so some extra verifications are in order here

Bulupu - Wind

Bulupu - Thunder

Bulupu - Light

Bulupu - Frost

Bulupu - Fire

Bulupu - Earth

Bulupu - Darkness

You may have guessed it, these are all set up for the Bulupu enemies

Wednesday

Bright Light

Volt's Crash

End of the world

12 Beaufort

Grand Inferno

Not nearly there yet!

Datacopy

And from here, let's cheat around!

Bulupu Water

That all seems to be in order

Neg versions

Bulupu for all 8 elements

Model for Bulupu

Class support ready.... Neil is now ready for OOP

Yes that is regardless of the question if the call was static or not

I've been setting up the static constructors in Neil.... These will be called when a class is called for the first time

Nothing I could do today.... I had some duties elsewhere.... And a broken scooter (3x in a row that thing didn't last longer than a few weeks.

Static fields can be declared and read out (not yet be redefined)

A start up to classes

Class preparational work done

My focus lies (for now) on Neil.... I also needed to step away from the game for a little... I'll soon be back though....

I managed to make neil "void" that issue, though

Lua "deprecated" this

--[[ --[[ ]]

for no reason, but it did get me in trouble....

Fake Seelah Gandra

More Neil work

Yesterday, my time was most of all taken up by the produciton of Neil, of which I am now developing the core....

I use a special generation program for that... Soooo handy!

vUpdate

Everything appears to be in order

Another test then....

Issue voided

MICROSCHOFT!

Who is the idiot at MicroSoft who came up with the idea to use backslashes for directory dividing?

code typo

Let's put that to da test!

On floor 090 you will now get one of the sealed bosses as the floor's boss.

THIS WILL IN NO WAY INFLUENCE WHOSE SPECIAL WEAPON OR SPECIAL MOVE YOU'LL GET ON FLOOR 100

I've also made sure "Hall of the Mountain King" will play when you meet the Mountain Emperor, and the regular sealed boss music when you meet any of the others.

A quick music check

I can throw in a take IIi, But that won't tell me more about the fake enemies... Oh well

Dominance issue with the background on floor 090

None of the fake enemies appeared this time.... Leaving me unable to test if the bug is truly fixed.... I can only hope it is....

Take II

Case error

Wish me luck -- Take I

I gotta test on the way if this did actually fix everything

As I think this is the reason of the bugs on this department

I've tried to set up a system that can make the AI use a method during the Foe compilation in order to get everything for that foe alone in order

The function definition of Neil appears to work now

Well I'm tired to FUCK YOU ALL!

The computer keeps bringing up one excuse after another to make 100% sure the HP bug doesn't get fixed in any way.... Now a silly fact... The HP is the first stat in the list that should get altered.... So I wonder what is happening there...

Well.......

Oh well

Illegal Method Call

Well, we'll see....

I think I fixed the HP issue with the fake-enemies

Yay! That only leaves me 95 and 100 and then I'm done...

Area 090

Bottom pieces forgotten.... Added now!

Non-working exit

Does that all work?

Area 085

Okay, now?

....

I'm tired

Parse error

Let's see....

Floor 80 boss

Blauw Slijm

Fake Rebecca

Again!

Build failure

I do need to recompile NALA for this though....

Of course... I can never tell if it's fixed... I can only tell if it's not fixed when... it happens again.... Oh well...

A few fixes have been applied though....

Unfortunately exits out of reach are still possible.... GRRR!

the town works

Okay and NOW we can test something....

How could I be so stupid

Duncan

Duncan

Duncan

I doesn't end there though

Tagged all stands on floor 075

Hold the show.... I forgot something important

But at least I can test stuff out, and at the current status of things... relax my brain in the process

The boss enemy has not yet been scripted so that encounter will crash the game, yes!

In the meantime I did floor 080 for the True Abyss... That is after all an easy thing to do!

I've done some work on Neil.... This is however where Neil gets very very complex, so I am by far not sure if this is gonna work

Blockmap issue on floor 075

And the missing .negative files are present now!

The negger has been fixed.... It would ignore earlier faults due to a a malformed boolean expression.... Sigh.....
