Getting closer....

Let's see.... ????

FUnction value?

And another take

Image of enemy should appear

Another bug

I think ????

Nothing happens at all not even the name coloring... (the logs didn't even alter)

I should have counted these particular takes

Several cases of missing "self"

Does it work now?

Syntax error

In the test there's not yet much I can do,except for seeing if stuff doesn't crash

This will also ignore all data the monster encyclopedia doesn't need

I've set up a fake class to cover the data of foes

Given the way the class has been set up in the combat engine, merely copying it is not gonna do much good

The Foe Database is very much class based... I need to see if I can cover this up, and that won't be easy

Added tag PROBLEM

Here we go again!

Illegal function call

...

Oh dea!

NEEEEEXT!

Invalid boolean expression

Okay NEXT!

Macro extra

Activating a foe is possible now... Data will not yet show, but the list will mark it in ember letters now

But THAT is a later convern!

I only should move things a little to make scrolling possible

works

Another one then!

Formula fix

Nothing happens

And moar!

"self" (GRRR!)

I gotta test this!

Hovering over an enemy's name will put it in a kind of spotlight... Nothing will happen to the right window as long as you don't click and clicking has not yet been put in!

It was Not supposed to turn green, though

I gotta test this... Unfortunately

Mouse pointer in monster list

With the list done, now you must be able to select stuff, so the computer can give you the data you want

Important too!

A break

So far, all's fine!

Take VIII

Forgotten #use clause

Take VII

FUCK YOU!

Take VI

The woes of NIL.... Hey it was only an experimental thing after all... Luckily Neil does this better (although Neil has other problems)

Take V

Voided that issue

I guess I should be glad I swapped NIL for Neil

Take IV

The names of all monsters and their respective categories should appear in the monster list now

Take III

A little swap of parameters should fix that!

DAT LIJKT NERGENS OP!

"to lie to one as beautiful as you"

I should have known better

Take I (And should be the only take, but who knows).

Which should link it all together

The code made which will make the game go to the monster list flow

The work boxes will show, and the link to my debug panel has been set so I can easily back out

More basis

Basis set up

Monster flow will be loaded if needed

LOL

The work I did on Star Story yesterday proved to be really complex and much.... That game is now in a state however that I can fire things up, and as such my attention goes to Dyrt today

At last!

...

Care error

Let's see now!

Lie voided

Liar!

Before I get onto the encyclopedia itself, I'll first check if Foxey responds to you at all, and the encyclopedia itself might not even be for today as I'm still in two projects and things took too long here

That's looks better already

Again!

Infinite loop

Categories are not all right

YUCK!

First list generated

And a while (I REFUSE to call unused identifiers an error, and the fact Go regards them as such is really unforgivable)

Generator syntax errors

Go whines

The tool has been set up.... Does it work?

In order to prevent long loading times when you open the encyclopedia I'll create a generator which will generate a ready to go list

that's all so far, as I do need to set up the monster encyclopedia next, which can be quite some work. Hang on!

Foxey's greetings

LUNCH!

Problem solved!

And does Foxey appear now?

So far so good

Let's force things through then

Set

And I'll be needed to cheat a little in order to get things done in the Hall of Heroes... Unfortunately....

That issue itself has been fixed

Just as I suspected I forgot something unforgivable, and non-fixable

A small test is in order, but this also allows me a little memory checkup, as there's some data I need to check which I can only do in-game

Diane Foxey has been added to the Hall of Heroes

I had to deal with loads of cockroaches in Star Story yesterday so I had no time left to get to work on Dyrt.... So I'll get to work on this game today first....

running

The actual action comes later

So far so good!

And now to test it!

Map Configured

Script to alias the music properly for the Hall of Heroes

Empty base script

The ones who you should meet in the Hall of Heroes will NOT yet appear!

Basis Map Hall of Heroes

In the meantime I managed to unlock "Blast" in my game, so next time I can try to see to get that SpellAni in order

Test complete

I'm gonna test out Iskarderiu Forest, the Imperial Castle and Iskarderiu.... Nothing in my issue tracker can be tended yet... unfortunately

Nothing special I could do during this test, though!

Today, I'll just be testing some stuff in the Red Dragon's Lair.... I must also make sure Eric's Red Dragon Powers do not reset in the New Game++

I will take a break now and after my break I'm going to do some work for Star Story!

And as far as #250 is concerned that only leaves Dernor

#250

Everything tested up to the point of reaching the Red Dragon's Lair

Blockmap issue DragonCrack Forest

Scyndi's attacking pose works, but as I suspected a few height issues may need to be solved

Visibility issue giving away a secret in Dragon Crack Forest

Take II

Syntax error

A few cosmetic changes should be needed though, especially considering some height issues when she makes her backflip prior to cracking her whip

Scyndi's attack pose has been added

And I've also set the new game+ to drop more magic stones

I think I tackled it!

The logs confirm the lie

Investigation shows even more that the entire setup is not possible in any single way. It would claim that the difficulty setting is set to 0, and that difficulty setting does not exist....

And another non-existent error (not a single enemy could have died if this statement was true without crashing the game) pops up!

Take XII

since a non-existent bug cannot be fixed, and can technically also not be voided, I decided to make a different approach on matters

That error is NOT possible in any way (if it was the gamevars could NEVER have worked, meaning the entire game could NEVER have worked, so that is the ulitemate proof computer CAN lie)

Does THIS fix things up?

Code ignored?

Take XI

Save your sources first before testing again, moron!

Take X

At least for the prison... I do not know about other dungeons.. yet, but I doubt they'll work properly

What I feared is true.... Crashes when Game Jolt does not function properly

FINALLY!!!!!!

Take IX

I hope this fixes taht

Almost there!

Take VIII

I hope I squashed it now!

It still hasn't understood a damn fuck about ANYTHING!

At least the game doesn't crash but

Take VII

And who knows what lame excuse in order to crash the computer comes up with next!

I HATE CASE SENSITVITY! THE BIGGEST CRIME IN COMPUTER PROGRAMMING, I SWEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take VI

GRRRR!

Take V

If you don't HAVE a reason to crash you just CREATE one, eh?

Take IV

Scope error

Take III

Illegal object call

Take II

Am I glad I could get rid of this issue in Neil

Lack of "self"

I gotta test stuff out now, and I will also test till the exit... I can also test if the passage to Botanica remains closed now, so all in all this is a bit of the "better run" I guess...

Okay, now I can work on a full stomach

Before I'm gonna test this though I'm first gonna fix myself breakfast... It's 11am and I still haven't eaten yet and I'm hungry!

Linked it to Irravonia's spell

This should cover all of Irravonia's spells

I've done the animation for Irravonia's "Splash" spell

Things appear to be in order now!

It does indeed happen only once (if there was a bug saving inside Weniaria's temple and loading the game would reset Seelah Gandra's skill levels, and since that doesn't happen, this is a confirmed status).

Marker set in to make sure this only happens once!

That should do it!

Seelah Gandra's magic groups do not unlock in the new game+ like they should

Animation works

I'll now test the mysterious crypt, and while I'm at it I'll do Weniaria's temple too.

That only leaves Dernor and Seelah Gandra.... Seelah Gandra is with her whip the hardest to do

#250

Animated Brendor's attacking pose!

And once again I'm logging the wrong devlog

And I've set up a basis for Map Script

Basis set up for the Field Flow

For Brendor and Seelah Gandra's story there's not much I can do except for checking if they work... I hope I've time to do that today, but my medical condition is not super

And I've made sure that Queen Shanda's dungeon is okay

Stuff appears to work now, I guess

Take III

Dupe class (thank goodness that issue with modules is no longer possible in Neil).

Take II

And that should fix the spellanis to be ignored

Done

I forgot to link the spellani to the respective spell and item data

Well, does it work, or doesn't it work?

Take I

Rock

Of coures, I still gotta script it!

I've transferred the rock I used in both Star Story and The Fairy Tale REVAMPED to this game. Was a better way to go, as the original rock SpellAni sucked!

The grammar in that statement is odd in English, so I hope you understand

Headaches have been haunting me for days, and put a damper on my work, and the work I could do was on Star Story, as there the work is more and more complex
