I forgot to header the new version

Take CLVI

Neil -> Scyndi

Next chapter.

Another one seems fine (for now)

Take CLV

Done

Progress, but I do need to link to graphics

Take CLIV

Script adapted

And Now everything should be alright!

Link-up

Link into core engine

API for WaitMinTicks()

Adapted TQSL for WaitMinTicks()

This will however required me to adept the SCI Run time application, so perhaps this is a good cue to call it a day.

FPS.MinTicks() requested

Take CLIII

Done!

And I also know I need to link beam to Sys

That works

Take CLII

On booleans this has been fixed now. I will have to investigate the other types later.

Take CLI

A bit of expansion on Scyndi error catching as this type bug is getting quite annoying now

Take CL

Present now?

Map requested

Take CXLIX

#use to audio

FieldBeam renamed

Take CXLVIII

Boolean parameters are bugged too?

Take CXLVII

Another one

Take CXLVI

Missing #use

Take CXLV

Sys.Call to fake lib

Take CXLIV

Whiner

Take CXLIII

Did not seem to be my most imporant aim, though, but hey, if it works, it works, right?

Beam link

CLBeam (was expected)

Take CXLII

Bundle rename => Scyndi

And I guess the next stage, the get the main core of the Flow routine converted, will be next. Wish me luck on that one.

Take CXLI

It's lazy, but it will spare more tons of bugs

future issues on MiniMessage.NewMsg

No more INTERNAL ERROR messages on return statements in root scopes. A proper error message will now appear.

Take CXL

Another

Take CXXXIX

Indeed

I guess we got something to void here

Take CXXXVIII

Directory messed up

Take CXXXVII

Screen

Take CXXXVI

Taken care of!

Unknown identifier ImageFont in line #88 (Script/Use/Misc/MiniMessage.scyndi)

Take CXXXV

I did put on the Module header. I will see where stuff goes wrong with the upcoming takes.

Renamed MiniMessage

Report is okay... (no, that message had to be posted like that, anyway).

That link turns out to work, but now the complaint is about MiniMessage.

Take CXXXIV

Flow.Load

That should be done by now

I do need to make sure REPORT is styled as te rest of the tags here.

All issues with Linked List and Scyndi itself appear to be accounted for

Take CXXXIII

Unwanted fallthrough

Take CXXXII

I really should block return in the root scope.

Take CXXXI

Method interaction is also a bit of an issue here

Geez... And I thought this was gonna be easy

Take CXXX

Another one

Take CXXIX

I voided it for now

Something is really wrong with the pointer typed parameters in Scyndi function defintions

All thens removed now?

Take CXXVIII

Replaced not

Take CXXVII

Replaced all or in Linked List

Take CXXVI

Type added to Scyndi

Take CXXV

Neil still accepted then as a keyword, but Scyndi does not

Take CXXIV

Order issue with GET and SET (?)

Take CXXIII

For now I'll void all this

I think I may have found why the local variable defintion may not work, but it's yet too early to be sure.

Take CXXII

That has been fixed

Ow, wait.... the error reporter is simply bugged, and reacted on the wrong word

Why?

Despite being added to the keywords list, the system regards LDEF still as an.... IDENTIFYER???

Take CXXI

Okay, a slight code modification WAS required

Take CXX

This should help me to get on the road... I think.

Workout done (I hope)

(Please note, I needed to do this to Scyndi anyway. Linked List was just the first to make it inevitable, but more is expected).

A few ajdustments to Scyndi to start a few things out.

The only thing I'd found that will be problemetic is the fact that Scyndi does not really allow functions to be defined inside a function scope, yet (unfortunately) writing an iteration feature with Lua as underground requires just that. I may need to adept one line of Scyndi code, and to put a few changes into the Scyndi compiler. Other than that, stuff looks fine to me.

Oh my. The Neil version was already a conversion from NIL.... XD

I do need to make some adjustments, but it shouldn't be too hard to get the Neil variant converted to Scyndi. As a matter of fact, it's likely that except for a header, I may not even have to change a single line of code at all, but we'll see.

There's no LinkedList library for Scyndi yet.

Added tag REPORT

Take CXIX

I don't expect this to work, but what to focus on first can be made clear by the next error message

When you write as much code as I do (if not more) you can't be expected to memorize everything, you know.

No idea why I did it that way, to be honest, but likely only to make sure a certain INIT scope is always executed LAST.

LoadField

Now before I begin, I must note that it will be one of the most complex operations in this entire conversion, and I was also not looking forward to do it. A lot will have to be converted to get this all on the move, like contact with Kthura, and the BoxText routine and a few other things.... I may even have to fake a few things around in order to save myself a crapload of time.

But I'll try to get a few things done, today

Not to mention I had a severe case of Gastroenteritis the past week, so I needed time to recover.

A little stand still. I was not in the best mental shape for awhile.

The intro map could already be transferred, but I guess that was not really a surprise anyway, huh?

There may be a lot to do here, as Star Story is heavily scripted and the newest version of Kthura won't accept that YET!

Kthura transfer script set up

The error now being thrown is because the Party sub is not yet being converted.
But that's not for today.

That's more like it.

Take CXVIII

I think....

Take CXVII

Again

Take CXVI

One more lazy link. I feel I'm gonna NEED it!

Stuff works as far as it should work

Take CXV

Another one, different member

Take CXIV

No longer a method, but a property now

Well, the game starts.... That's something, eh?

Take CXIII

Link to Sys

Take CXII

Link to link

Take CXI

Self

Take CX

Intervar

Take CIX

Vies! Bah!

Take CVIII

Done

Be back soon!

Ah, a missing link. Easy to fix, but I need a break now first!

Take CVII

Code typo

Take CVI

Resuming the normal checks

That works

Take CV

More of that crap

Take CIV

One of the C++ files for the Scyndi compiler is generated out of this, otherwise Scyndi would not be able to know its own core globals.

Ah, a syntax error in the Scyndi Core Script

Scyndi is going haywire... or rather VS is going haywire over something in Scyndi

Take CIII

Link up script for Party adapted

Take CII

Extra linkup required

(No this data did not get lost. The project was stored on a different device and that device didn't lose its power).

Take CI

I did avoid a few conflicts that would arise between Apollo and SCI

It works again. I found out that the device on which the database for Azor is stored was without power due to the plug gotten loose in the socket. I simply had to reinsert it. However as some data is lost as I noticed too late, and cannot be recovered, part of today's devlog is missing. And it's not worth it to reenter all that crap.

Take C

Let's try the generator again!

Loads of entries went lost in a failure

Take XCIX

EXTERN syntax error

Take XCVIII

Another conflict

Take XCVII

code typo

Take XCVI

Vies bah!

Take XCV

Fix ignored

Take XCIV

Recompiling

Another fix in Scyndi

Take XCIII

more crap

Take XCII

More whatever

Take XCI

Whatever

Take XC
