Mini Post: February - Something something about laying down on the job.



This month was a slow month as far as progress goes.  I did finish up the double teams for the male elves, so that's good.

The rest of the progress though is mostly behind the scenes stuff that y'all shouldn't see or care about.  Of those, the biggest one is I'm still not happy with how poison works.  Right now, you can tick down & change poison levels when the game really isn't ready for it.  It's not game-breaking, but it can (temporarily) cause half of your character to change color and the other half to remain the same.  So that's not right, but my first real "fix" made it worse, so I'm back to square one.

That probably sounds a bit bitter, and I'm really not.  These are the sort of problems I like to chew on, it just wears on ya a bit when you think you've fixed it & the fix is worse.  The good news I can leave it alone & the game does still function, so fixing this is a pretty low priority (say, compared to actually making new content).  But this level is the last place where poison really plays a role, so I'd like to have it fixed while I'm here, so to speak.

And that's what's up.  See ya next month.  :)
