As part of my game, I needed some way to show damage to the player (and, damage to the monster, as well).\u00a0 The method I used to render text was semi-hacked together yesterday, and it had a few problems that made it hard to really do what I wanted.\u00a0 What I wanted (and what I now have), is to have the damage float up from a point on screen.\u00a0 After some amount of re-writing, and some terrible bugs that nearly stopped me in full, I’ve got a better text rendering function.<\/p>\n
