    Make at least 10 maps in my project... Considering I'm so lazy, it is a very challenging goal.

    Goals:
    Still working on the field maps of my monster. I didn't get as much done last month as I wanted, but that's normal to be honest; though I did break the three thousand hour mark on MV according to Steam, so I suppose that means I have been doing something.

    First, I need to finish up integrating the FSM Caves & Forests DLC into my field maps, & correcting any of the errors it caused. Primarily tree size mismatch, & a few touch ups.

    Second, then it's back to chipping away at the mountain that is my field maps, it's monotonous given the sheer number of field maps, but it's getting to the point where it almost looks like the skeleton of a functioning sandbox game is there.

    Third, try not to allow myself to be completely distracted by playing Mordheim, & be disciplined enough to make myself spend at least as many hours on MV, as I spend on it, if I am going to play it during a given day.

    Current field map progress.
    Inprogress:
    1) Swamps 2% complete.
    2) Cliffs 25% complete.
    3) Hills & Mountains 0% complete.
    4) Forests 2% complete.
    5) Field & Battle BGM 0% Complete.
    6) Secondary transfer points 5% Complete.

    Finished:
    1) Coastlines 100% complete.
    2) Lakes & Rivers 100% complete.
    3) Battlebacks 100% Complete.
    4) Visual Encounters 100% Complete.

    7.1

    • Finished mapping four exterior maps.
    • Finished Dialogue for these maps.
      • Dialogue is finished up until the demo point for my friend.
        • You only get to follow one of the characters right now, selecting the other leads to nothing.
        • The end of this demo is dark, resulting in the character being forced to flee.
    While a small update, there isn't much left to do in terms of development for this next demo for my friend. There is a lot of balancing left to do and mechanics for bosses to add in. There's a couple other things to do, such as class balancing and adding another Yanfly script. But these are minor.

    I will also be disabling dash across the whole of the game.

    Update to goals

    I want to get the two characters flushed out for their scenes by the end of July, there won't be a forum thread till end of August now, with a playable demo the end of September. I want to make sure that everything is stable and perfect before releasing a demo to be analysed by players.

    It is iiiii.
    I started working on a new project idea last month, and by the end of this month, I'd like to have a playable demo for it (I know I wont be able to complete the whole thing this month aaahaha).

    Sounds like some good goals! Keep it up!

    7.1 Update:
    -Created the new enemies for the next dungeon in Chapter 6. Placed the enemies and the first couple plot events that occur.
    -Mapped some of the side areas for this dungeon. Still got about 50% of them to go.

    Get the maps working for the demo, so I need to set pass-ability and get the puzzles in order now that the enemies are being balanced.

    Othello now works thanks to Mundy, he made it so you can have multiple colors that in a path can all be converted.
    I've gotten quite a bit of the new busts added and will be working to integrate them as well.

    Bit of P2 busking today... got some $CAN on Canada Day but... 1Euro and 2 US quarters??? Only Prototype 2 can bring home foreign currency on Canada Day! Uh well... less exotic than some I saw. (No idea how much money I did thought.)
    <-----For new peoples wondering who in the whole wide web is P2; here one early picture of her under my handle.

    Got a few things done today :p

    The popup_dialogue system is actually in another project at the moment, have not brought it over to the main project.

    So I now have a choice system implemented sorta... it's text only but hey it works!
    so I can call RPG_Message_Show(rpgMessage,true); so the true flag is for choice
    however might make it it's own script so RPG_Message_Show_Choice(rpgMessage,"yes","no","maybe");

    in the script would look like.
    Code:
    var choices = ""; // init
for (var i=0; i<array_length_1d(choices); i++) {
    choices = argument[i]; // make sure your arguments are dynamic not static
    o_rpgDialogue.choice_options = choices[i]; 
}

so if choice_selection = 0 then
RPG_Message_Show("Okay Hero, follow me")
if 1
RPG_Message_Show("B..but why not?")
    Trying to make all the code as less complex as possible, I could be as complex as possible but over complexity isn't always the answer or honestly needed... the simplest answer is usually the best in every scenario.

    THE RPG portion is just standrd RPG Functions, I may try and port the Battle System to MV. However if I remember right I'd be re-writing absolutely everything "minus standard rpg functions" I have no problem doing this but may or may not bother with 360 enemy/player knock back as this will require me to rewrite how the events and players move.

    Try and be more active on the forums (again) and get off my lazy rear and work on my project
