So today I had very little time to get things done, compared to the rest of the week so far.\u00a0 I managed to get unit production up and running without much trouble, though, and also implemented planet capturing.\u00a0 That means that the fundamental ingredients of the RTS game here – unit command, territory control and economic management – are in!\u00a0 Yay!<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, I am going to bed tonight with an unsolved crash related to particle effects.\u00a0 Hopefully my fresher eyes tomorrow morning will help solve that.\u00a0 Afterwards, there is some tweaking to be done, particularly to the interface, but the last major feature to add is enemy AI.\u00a0 I hope to get basic enemy AI implemented tomorrow, as well as interface fixes and improvements; and I hope to get complete AI and basic sound implemented by Saturday night.\u00a0 Sunday, then, will be a day for adding fun extra features, if all goes well.<\/p>\n

I’m really enjoying the #7DRTS so far, but it is a definitely a bit exhausting, and I look forward to a code detox once this is over.\u00a0 At that point, I think I’ll sit down and play Shadowrun Returns<\/i>.<\/p>\n
