Animations and the state of the demo


been a few days since the last small update but were still hard at it. right now all effort is focused on getting the tool system working properly. The watering can is ready to go but menus for swapping and equipting them are not. trying to intergrate the animations for tools is also eating up alot of time too. but fear not. entire fields can be gifted functionality in minutes now and field data carries across but not the plant sprites themselves which are awaiting a quick line of code telling them to have at the plant data.

As for the state of the demo im working hard to get it ready and out there and see what peoples ideas are on it and how things could improve. As i said farming is to be the main focus so once that is ready and a few smaller things are polished we'll be ready to roll it out

I know updates have been slow but there really isn't much to talk about when you're just tidying up existing code. We're looking at updating the art style to be just that bit nicer. The crop system working with an overhaul to interactions with tools.

Finally, you can sell the fruits/veg of your labour. :)

Opinions on a new graphics style?

Light menu is still undergoing it's refit, some behind the scenes code changes making it easier to edit multiple lights. A light will also toggle on/off depending on its intensity. So custom events don't need to be loaded with two different commands.

I know it has been a while since the last update, but life got in the way. Here we can see how buttons can be customized and given functionality through the event system. More to come as the event system grows.

Tall walls are all modeled and intergrated into the engine and work seamlessly with the previous two wall styles. actual wall skins for this set are incoming. A new test build featuring these changes will follow up soon.

Asking the big questions today. We won't support changing your characters outfit or gender but you can give our beloved testguy a name. Character customization will come later, as it will take planning to get it as versatile as we want at the moment.

Character bits! We're currently throwing together the character animation pieces for the new customization system :P
