take XVII (all should work now... at least in room 002)

Barrier did not open

All bugs in the linked button script accounted for... Only one more thing, left for me to do!

Take XVI

Illegal method call

XV

Illegal function call

Take XIV

Did I fix this, yes or no?

I think I found out what I can do about this, but let's see

Take XIII

SOme shit beyond any right person's understanding

I realized that can NEVER work

HOLD THE SHOW!

Take XII

I think I need to use some brute force... especially since the better method failed already it no longer matters

Take XI

I think I found a fix for that, or at least a way to crash out when it still happens

It's clear that some buttons have many dupe definitions, leading to one definition neutralizing the other

Take X

At least that issue's been fixed... Next issue

Multiple ZA_Enter causes some issues, eh?

And some extra debug to provide some anwers, as this is getting beyond me

Tiny fix

still no good

Take IX

so I'll go for the manual approach....

the auto-approach doesn't appear to work well

Resuming Take VIII (which I was still running)

Distrubed by another important phone call

Take VIII

Main table not updated

Take VII

Timeout declaration error

Take VI

Backlink not established

Take V

And an debug timeout enforcer has been put in place also

I hope I tackled that

Apparently an infinite loop is taking place

Take IV

Hopefully

New Setup

False setup

Take III

Code Typo

Illegal function calls

Take II

I HATE case sensitivity..... (It's for a reason I'm experimenting with my own engine (and if unsuccesful I'm gonna make an improved version of Scyndi in order to replace NIL)

Case Error

Take I

It's for a reason I'll save the encounters for this dungeon for the very last moment

And now it's time to get the test running... Which me luck as this ain't gonna be easy....

Area 002

Answered a long but important phone call

Achievement linking to mapscript and game jolt

Sanity is not required for the job! You're not mad enough to be rejected!

I've set up system which will check the button puzzles.... No idea if it works though

#149

It works

#149

Although before I close that issue, I first wanna do a quick test.

Not only that, but the permanencer on the bridge works too....

The bridge works

Take IV

Bridge didn't appear (although the game did not crash)

Take III

Another

Take II

State error

Gotta test it, though

And the crash is "fixed" in the process....

The bridge should now appear

Door room 001 didn't open

Way back didn't work

Target on the right will for now crash the game, as I didn't yet write the mapscript for that

Area 001

The current events will not get me to remove Eric's super file spell "Corona", though

Oh yeah.... achievement 180 worls

Defragmentation of my portable devices was way too long ago, so let's do that.... This will mostly likely take very extremely long (those are MAGNETIC devices, so I still have to do this).

For now this will do.... On Sundays I'm always short on time

Alright

Let's see

Not quite, but I got on the right trail... Now it must be fixed for real! (I hope)

Another take must confirm that

I think I fixed that

for some reason leaving and re-entering crashes the game....

The bolt appears to work, BUT.....

And about time too

vUpdate

Shootings will be terminated immediately if something disappears while the bolt still flies

still slower, but already a bit quicker than it was... This WILL have to do for now, I'm afraid

Let's see

This is not entirely safe.... No objects may be removed as long as the bolt is running, and if that still has to happen, a new table must be created... I hope this will work out, though

I've done a little bit of experimenting to see about #151

Setting up that mapscript is NOT for today, though

Right... Stuff works now....At least the crash I now got is the crash for the non-existent mapscript method, and that crash could only occur when all other bugs are fixed....

Final take I hope!

Take XIX

Syntax error

Take XVIII

#151

reminder #150

(And I'm hope I'm there now, as this is taking its toll on me now)

Take XVII

Tex reference incorrect

Take XVI

Loop kill crash

Take XV

Misformed function call

Take XIV

I need to know more now

The outcome is astounding

Take XIII

Still no good on the targets though, so this debug line must get me some answers

Take XII

closing in

Take XI

Kthura issue?

Right, that appears to be working... Well for a part

Take X

I see... let's see what happens if I .....

Take IX

Added an extra line that should provide some answers

Still "no" eh?

Take VIII

Another attempt

Didn't work

Take VII

Syntax Error

Take VI

And the bolt should move faster now

A different approach to fix this?

No more crashes on shooting itself, but the barriers it should cross are not crossed, and I think I know why

Take V

WTF?

Take IV

Illegal Method Call

Take III

Not really a bug, rather stupidity

Property mismatch

Take II

Syntax error

Nevertheless a test is possible now, so let's do it!

At the present time the game will crash on this as the required mapscript function has not yet been written

I did set the bolt to move now and even activate the target

Time to be out for awhile... I need it (no Corona won't stop me)...

But what had to work, works now

And many takes later

Tons of bugs

Take I

Done

I've set up the creation of a bolt now... However I do need to do some extra configuration and it doesn't move yet!

No errors popped up

For which I'm now using my powershell script to recompile

And thus also in NALA

Implemented in Bubble

API code to create obstacles from script

I did need some rest... I'm not feeling too well... so I do things a bit slower now... And I need a break anyway... I am not entirely sitting still though... Just allowing myself a break (and a well-deserved one I might add).

I've set Aziëlla to make her personal action button appear when she is in the lead

Aziella cannot shoot yet, nor does the icon even appear.... Based on how my agenda will be tomorrow (which is unclear for now), I may make a start on that tomorrow, or even do it as a while.....

It works

Take IV

Only ONCE should the tutorial appear, bozo!

Take III

Scenario map tag

Take II

Aha......

SASKIA alias ignored???????

Let's test this out

Tutorial linked to the map

And I got a visitor now so I gotta test this all later!

Linked world map to the dungeon

If you have a use for it, use it! ;)

ONE HUNDRED AND EEEEEEEEIGHTY!

It's not yet scripted so don't expect it to work yet!

Aziëlla's shooting ability

Area 000 Malabia's Caves

As I suspected no scenario data for Malabia's cave (since that dungeon never needed it in the original).... Since a tutorial will be there about Aziëlla's shooting ability, I suppose I must create that now.

But first I wanna know who the mole is :P

I do need to script Kthura in order to make placement of them more easy....

Target points for Aziëlla to target

But let's try something anyway

My current possibilities to test this are limited, though

Alpha testers who already have level 100+ characters, the system will then cast the award as soon as the character gains a new level....

I've linked the achievements to the characters... When they reach level 100, the achievement will be awarded.

Please note the achievements do NOT yet work, but I can work them all at once with only pretty little code, so doncha worry!

A rebuild was needed due to this though!

One went wrong, but that's fixed now!

All achievements linked to Game Jolt

I also decided that the Game JOlt only bonus dungeon will have its entrance in the final cellar of the Dark Store House... This might technically mean you can enter this place with Kirana in stead of Eric.... But since all GJ dungeons up to this point grant this possibility.... Not a real issue, is it?

I'll run my building script now, as that is the quickest way to make sure all achievement will be linked to their Game Jolt counterparts

if you are an alpha tester, you also must come here to leave Aeria and get the achievement anyway as soon as you get there, and since the game does not end on Aeria... One way or another you'll get there at this point, so no harm done!

The latter will be awarded as soon as you arrive on Aeria beach.... You always get here when entering Aeria for the first time, even though it's then only for scenario purposes, but that triggers SASKIA anyway

Ty ymor syrfa dal Aerya

Gonna take care of the latter right now....

none of these actually work yet though, and they are also not (yet) linked to Game Jolt

Wings! When your heads are in one mind, we can fly through space and time!

I am no man!
