I take one step forward, and two steps back
It's always been like that
It shouldn't be like that
I'm trying to overcome myself
Trying to work around this hell
Five Finger Death Punch discovers programming 
Working on the reciprocal of the crafting and manage to cause bugs in the main crafting. Which is weird because they don't actually touch each other, coding-wise. I don't know if this is a constant issue, in which case I might have to rework the whole thing 
or if it just really doesn't like my catch-all "ᎦᎵᏓᏍᏔᏅ" (Mistake) recipe. Where everything else has a very specific recipe to follow, the Mistake is everything that doesn't work. I do think that's the problem, but I also think I will have to create more recipes for a more thorough experiment 
Edit: Figured out the bug. Going to take too long to chase down tonight, I think. Dinner time, then AC: Valhalla, then bed 
Next up
Working on battles. A little different than last time, aesthetically, but still the same basic idea

Lots of modeling the last few days. Got some houses made, remade some of my terrain blocks (rebuilt the harbor), and started on the NPC models. Also worked on the battle system and the follower system, now with 1/10th the code but 10x more efficient
Today's accomplishments include a rather smooth state machine, a functioning opening cutscene, and name input. It's not pretty, but there aren't any bugs

Battle State Machine is working Player chooses what to do, enemies choose what to do, and they even have variable rates of attack/defend/flee. Next step will be to actually start dealing damage
