Quoll Work Thread, 2025-01-12 #2 - 2025-01-12 13:15
I’ve reached a point where I think I need to take a break and eat some food. I managed to knock out a few small issues, which I’ll describe below the fold just so there’s something to this post. But the fun of writing looms closer…
The issues fixed:
- Updating the copyright year to 2025
- When Ada is talking to Taffany for the first time, Ada mentions that she has to do to this through her past self. Ada’s mention of that wasn’t firing in one case. It was an easy fix, I just needed to add news rule to fire for the nodes of Taffany rather than Taffany herself. I had done this for a different node, but forgotten these two.
- When Ada talks to Taffany about Taffany, Taffany describes the problem she is having for the optional puzzle. This should let Ada become familiar with a Subject so that the todo list item she has on the optional puzzle correctly reflects Ada’s knowledge.
My next things to work on after the break are pretty similar to that last one I fixed, where what is said should account for Ada’s knowledge of things, such as having met Taffany, or having been told how to fix Taffification. And then I see one more (hopefully) little fix like that for when Ada is talking to Glitch about Glitch.
After that, I will likely work on some handling of when the optional puzzle has been solved and the reward has been used to make Taffany act very different from how she acts at the start of the stage. And then I need to make some decisions on other things I want the skunktaur tutors to talk about, and then hopefully then it is the fun work of writing out all those responses.
I’ve mentioned possibly getting a new release by the end of this month, and I could do that, but I think it’s more likely to be next month, likely on the full moon. I still have a lot of stuff to do around the house before I start work, and that has to take priority.
But for now, break… and not going to lie, possibly nap…
