HAHAH!
Changed how I'm doing my Crafting Lookups!


Originally I had extra data slots in my Item Database, which was huge and unwieldy, and having null data for things you couldn't craft. It also meant holding all that data in memory constantly.

Then a while back a reworked it so the game would run a script that would make a temporary DS_Map and swap the Item Index for the Product Index, this works great but DS_Maps are volatile and can be removed from memory randomly. They're also why I have so much trouble with Carpets...

But I'm now using the same system I built for my Item Effects!
It's just a simple script with a State Machine inside, insert the Item Index, and it outputs the Item Product, the Amount that will be Crafted and also the Amount needed! (not currently used)

Wooo!

So I spent a while remaking the title screen load code only to realise the reason it was taking so much longer than a normal island was because the file for it had all the objects in one big list instead of being broken up in to chunks

I wish I had more to show recently but I've been taking it easy over the holidays and what I have been working on is just optimisations which doesn't translate to gifs so well
