23:27	OFFTOPIC	For some reason these kinds of videos work very relaxing..... The ride starts in Toulouse and ends in Paris... Enjoy!
23:26	STATUS	that all appears to be working
23:21	TEST	Let's see if this works (can't think of a reason not to, but as game development has done crazier things... a test is in order)
23:21	DONE	Right!
23:19	TECHNO	I may first copy these basis scripts for all features.... Saves me a lot of crash risks during later tests
23:18	FIXED	Yeah... it appears fixed.... As long as things don't turn back the way they were.....
23:15	TEST	Take IV
23:14	HUH	I bet these guys are dancing the mamushka for the one responsible for that
23:12	HUH	How does a variable I replaced to be the way it was before I replaced it?
23:07	DEBUG	Let's put in some squares that have to tell me something
23:04	JUDGMENT	Nope, nope definitely now.... And the crash message I got for clicking the quit button shows that it tried to open the "switch party member" feature, and that is definitely NOT the way it should be!
23:01	TEST	Take III
23:01	FIXED	But I was right something WAS wrong here
23:00	JUDGMENT	It wasn't as bad as I thought.... Which surprises me actually....
22:57	TEST	Take II
22:56	NOTE	I say "I hope" as the behavior in general was pretty strange, so I am not quite sure the system understood me
22:56	FIXED	I hope
22:55	BUG	CLICK! Without clicking the system switches already... That's not good!
22:48	TEST	Let's go!
22:48	NOTE	Important note! Clicking any icon that is not the inventory or the abilities icon, will (for now) crash the game
22:48	DONE	Clicking the icons should be possible now
22:44	COSMETIC	Red red wine.... Oh wait, I ain't a member of UB40... I mean I changed the character name to red in the field menu
22:39	NOTE	As both Crystal as Briggs cannot yet get abilities all they'll get a black screen. In Crystal's case, she'll get her abilities once the event has passed she becomes a cyborg, and Briggs is only a guest character. Wendicka will already get access to her lightning spells, although as that part has not yet been scripted all she'll get for now is also a blank screen, but that will be filled out.
22:29	SCRIPT	A basis has been set up for the ability screen
18:35	DEBUG	I've turned off the "#use" debug line.... I no longer need it (at least not at the present time, and I can reactivated easily), and this saves me tons of needless debug output on my console
18:08	STATUS	Since this is as far as I can go now I'll move #25 back to "todo" in my Kaban overview
18:06	STATUS	All is fine as far as I can go right now... Only when I get into the combat routine and stuff I can really get into the deep of this
18:01	TEST	Take III
18:01	FIXED	Illegal object call
17:57	TEST	Take II
17:57	FIXED	Code typo
17:48	TEST	Well, does it work?
17:47	NOTE	At the present time I cannot make use happen, as no items are usable at the current time
17:47	DONE	the "Use" icon should appear now
17:07	ART	"Use" icon
17:01	STATUS	Hey, the open clip art library is BACK!!! AT LAST!!!!!
17:00	STATUS	At least!
16:59	CONFIRMED	It works!
16:57	TEST	Take V
16:56	FIXED	that should do it!
16:56	FIXED	That fixes a part of the problem, but the rest is easy now!
16:50	TEST	Take IV
16:50	SOLVED	Please?
16:50	FUCKYOU	Now this is getting REALLY REALLY annoying!
16:47	TEST	Take III will have to confirme this..... (I hope)
16:46	FIXED	An fixed it
16:46	SOLVED	I hope I found it
16:46	INVESTIGATION	Why?
16:46	COCKROACH	Still NOTHING HAPPENS
16:43	TEST	Take II
16:43	FIXED	Ah.... Formula error
16:41	HUH	NOTHING HAPPENS
16:31	TEST	Take I
16:31	SCRIPT	Trashing items should work now
16:30	UPDATED	Version numbers
14:56	STATUS	Time for a break
14:56	CONFIRMED	That works
14:45	TEST	Take II
14:45	FIXED	Code typo
14:41	TEST	I have trouble concentrating... But let's go!
14:28	TODO	Time to feed my cat, Kitty
14:28	DONE	Trashcan should appear
14:26	DONE	Trashcan load
13:39	SEARCH	Trashcan
12:54	STATUS	All appears to be well
12:51	TEST	Take II
12:51	VOID	....
12:46	BUG	<SIIIIIIIIIGH!>
12:38	TEST	As I did need to do a bit of rescoping, I need to see if everything went well.... Let's say if no crashes happen I must asumme everything is alright
12:16	ENHANCEMENT	Inventory screen now able to deal with different situations.... (The ability screen, which I yet have to start on will also require this)
2:17	UPDATED	#25
2:12	STATUS	All issues accounted for
2:08	TEST	Take XVIII
2:08	FIXED	Okay, let's see now!
2:08	STUPIDITY	AHA!
2:07	HUH	That didn't help, I suppose
2:04	TEST	Take XVII
2:03	FIXED	I hope I fixed the empty socket issue
1:48	STATUS	Now before I call it.... Let's see if I can fix that empty socket issue
1:48	CONFIRMED	That works
1:45	TEST	Take XVI
1:45	FIXED	???
1:35	TEST	Take XV
1:35	FIXED	Right, I think I fixed the return fault issue (although that should have caused a crash due to a non-existent character, so I'm a bit confused here, but let's see what happens, next)
1:30	TEST	Take XIV
1:30	FIXED	?
1:28	RESULT	CSAY>CallBack(FLOW_FIELDMENU)::Party.CallBack(1) Fatal Error! Error: [string "Script/Use/Anyway.NeilBundle/Dev.neil"]:51: bad argument #3 to 'SPRINTF' (number expected, got table) State: FLOW_FIELDMENU Da FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!
1:27	TEST	Take XIII
1:22	DEBUG	Let's first find out if I can see why the item return doesn't work the way it's supposed to!
1:22	STATUS	ONE thing at the time
1:20	BUG	Clicking an empty socket crashes the game, and that's even wrose!
1:20	BUG	Item disappears when leaving the menu and is not returned
1:17	TEST	Take XII
1:17	FIXED	Class error
1:14	TEST	I'll count on - Take XI
1:05	DONE	Auto return item when leaving the field menu
0:58	TODO	Now I need to make sure that if people leave the field menu stuff is reset, as it may otherwise cause of pain (the savegame routine cannot pick this up, and I don't even plan to make it able to.... Too much risks)
0:58	STATUS	All bugs accounted for
0:53	TEST	Take X
0:52	FIXED	????
0:52	BUG	Replacement does not
0:52	NOTE	Empty slot works
0:48	TEST	Take IX
0:47	SOLVED	Part of the issue.... Which was merely a scoping thing
0:46	BUG	The log did show an important thing though.... The Placement routine is not even called at all at many times when it should be, which is to say... odd
0:45	FUCKYOU	Stupid " thing
0:42	TEST	Take VIII
0:41	DEBUG	An extra debug line now has to provide some answers, as this is getting stranger by the minute!
0:40	COCKROACH	Things are getting stranger and stranger!
0:36	TEST	Take VII
0:36	FIXED	Syntax error
0:32	TEST	Take VI
0:32	FORCE	let's try this
0:12	COCKROACH	But that's the only part that works
0:11	CONFIRMED	Placing an item in order to stack it up works
0:08	TEST	Take V
0:08	FIXED	And Fixed it
0:08	SOLVED	I think I found it
0:08	INVESTIGATION	Time to find out why that is!
0:08	COCKROACH	NOTHING HAPPENS AT ALL!
- = 16 Oct 2020 = -
23:52	TEST	Take IV
23:52	FIXED	Syntax error
23:48	TEST	Take III
23:48	FIXED	I think I fixed the replacement... I cannot yet be sure if it's fixed, but I think I did
23:46	DONE	Empty sockets are not addressed separately under the hood, to at least force this to be done right
23:45	FIXED	Will one problem is fixed... Wrong variable read.... But is this the actual issue?
23:44	INVESTIGATION	Question is how this could happen
23:43	BUG	Placing them back, either for stacking up or for replacement or even on empty slots does not
23:43	CONFIRMED	Taking items from their sockets work
23:42	CONFIRMED	No inventory screen for Briggs works
23:38	TEST	Take II
23:38	FIXED	Unknown identifier
23:35	TEST	Take I
23:35	SECURITY	Briggs' inventory will not show at all, for security reasons
23:35	SCRIPT	Taking and placing items should be possible now
20:26	NOTE	This had to work anyway, and it's also handier this way, as this will help me to get the first random encounters tested and keep Wendicka's and Crystal's level a bit more up to par... Although the calculations will remain the same, it is not unthinkable some small balancing issues may still come on the way, so this is why
20:24	CONFIRMED	That works
20:20	TEST	Take II
20:15	STUPIDITY	Group module issue
20:13	TEST	Let's see
20:12	LINK	So that link is complete at least
20:12	SCRIPT	Stairyway down
20:10	CONFIRMED	All's well.... so far!
20:09	TEST	Take II
20:08	FIXED	Code typo leading into a syntax error
20:07	TEST	Let's at least test if no crashes pop up
19:49	NOTE	Nothing is activated, this is all under the hood, but without this code, I cannot get anything to work on this department, and it's a vital part of the item system
19:48	SCRIPT	Preparational scripts to make dragging items possible
18:30	FAILURE	Up until now it still seems impossible to find a SIMPLE and ADEQUATELY WRITTEN document in getting lzma to work in C++.
17:22	C++	I did decide to try out if I can lzma to work... At least the library for VS2019 compiles, so that's a step in the good direction, right?
2:48	TEST	Take II
2:47	FIXED	Code typo
2:47	TEST	Take I
2:47	COSMETIC	DarkText effect on item amounts.... (It was too hard to read, but too important to be left unreadable)
1:25	DUMMIED	Oh yeah, I dummied the debug lines bringing me to this conclusion, as the amount of output I got was ridiculous (but unfortunately needed)
1:23	TEST	I do need to see if this actually fixes the issue, but I can't see why not!
1:22	FIXED	GOTCHA! The force passible processor used the width for both x as y generation.... It doesn't take high-mathematics to see that would never work at all
1:16	DEBUG	Some extra debug lines must give me some answers here
0:37	COCKROACH	I still need to find out why the blockmap builder is malfunctioning, though
0:37	FIXED	Well that takes care of that....
0:28	TEST	Let's find out!
0:28	MYSTERY	Does this fix the player issue?
0:26	MYSTERY	The player itself doesn't even show.... Why not?
0:13	TEST	Well?
0:12	EXPERIMENT	I need to try this debug code
- = 15 Oct 2020 = -
23:45	TEST	Okay?
23:45	DEBUG	More debug shit to sort this out
23:25	DONE	Made sure autoremapping can be set by the interpreter
23:12	DEBUG	Extra line to make sure everything is in order
23:12	COCKROACH	I really don't undestand why this is happening....
23:03	TEST	Well?
23:03	MAP	I've made some changes to the map.... It is impossible now that the blockmap is still an issue, and when it's not the blockmap it must be something else.... That will be the next thing to sort out, eh?
22:59	COCKROACH	The blockmap issue after taking the stairs is still a mystery
22:55	TEST	Let's see
22:54	FORCE	Forcing things... And I really need to look to the color hander in the C++ version of Kthura
22:52	COCKROACH	STILL NO GOOD!
22:51	FORCE	I'll now force the new build to be redone entirely... This because the system refuses to take the changes to the Kthura map in it, like it should
22:46	TEST	Take X
22:46	VISUALSTUDIO	Compiling is in order
22:46	FIXED	Ah, this was due to a bug in my C++ code....
22:41	CONFIRMED	Close.... But no cigar!
22:38	TEST	Take IX
22:38	FIXED	So I hope stuff is fixed now
22:37	SOLVED	I think I found it... Or at least, I did discover something that was not right.... Possibily the icon bar was drawn over this as a result blinding me for what was really happening?
22:36	DUMMIED	I've dummied this line as it does no longer seem needed, but the code denies the possibility of work denial, so I'm at a loss here
22:32	MYSTERY	This confirms that the read data is correct, however, that makes it all the more mysterious that stuff doesn't show
22:31	RESULT	CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 01 > ADHBANDAGE:3 CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 02 > :0 CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 03 > :0 CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 04 > :0 CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 05 > :0 CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 06 > :0 CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 07 > :0 CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 08 > :0 CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 09 > :0 CSAY>Check: UniWendicka; 10 > :0
22:15	DEBUG	Time to check the log
22:12	TEST	Take VIII
22:12	TEST	Well, I hope this test produces some results I can use to make things out, as this is getting REALLY frustrating
22:02	STUPIDITY	The COVID-19 proved unrefutably that Albert Einstein was right when he said this Sorry for blurring the readability of this blog, but really I guess the message is only clear this way.... Problem is that the people proving Einstein right are working for governments and health organisations, and that is just sad!
21:58	DEBUG	A debug line that I didn't wanna put in as it's gonna create TONS of output, has been added, as drastic problems as for drastic measures
21:56	CONFIRMED	What the logs do confirm though is that the autostacking for the same item, and seeking a new socket for a new item appear to be working
21:55	COCKROACH	Still no good in any account
21:52	NOTE	I'll keep it in mind that the last build may have been outdated (due to me also doing other things), so I'll try that again!
21:49	COCKROACH	No effect for any of the fixes
21:00	TEST	Take VII
21:00	FIXED	Not sure, I hope this fixes it all, but at least a coordinate issue is fixed
20:34	DEBUG	I will need to find out why the icons and number of items do not show in the inventory screen though
20:33	FIXED	The leading zero tags are only in the character creator.... That's been removed now, but savegames with before this fix will keep it in these three characters.... That is in Wendicka's and Crystal's cases only in their uniform versions as their normal versions will not have it anymore... As the game ignores these records, and the "broken" savegames only affecting MY memory and not yours, I don't have to do anything drastic to restart my game or anything
