Computer Repair Simulator Update 5/12/2016
New launcher and bug fixes!
I figured that I wanted to simplify the code, to make more advanced controls / systems. The game will have a parent launcher done in VB Studio which allows the user to update their settings and controls (customized controls). It will allow settings to be adjusted in the graphics / audio sections. The reason for this is due to several reports of issues launching the game and changing a setting that cannot be reverted easily without modifying the options config data file (i.e. resolution was changed, but wasn’t updating properly and user could not get back into game).
The launcher will then call three game modes (Scenario, Random, Tutorial), but I will more than likely start with one first, maybe the tutorial. This will allow us to create many more intricate details and code within each mode as the code size will be very small compared to what it is at today.
