player UI is coming together.

*it's 2am, do you know where your O R B is?*

in serious news, the book progress continues but in the meantime, i figured i'd gamejam some horror during spooky season.

good news: endless generation of multiple ships is possible, as is progression with travel

bad news: crossing a gap for five boring minutes is unacceptable

possible solution: no more spaceships? switch to endless terrain?

new level design, new gameplay changes, and now a new playermodel

ingame machines and gameplay build progressing.

minor progress on the new procgen code

the star generation is running once again finally. sorry it took a year but the game engine switchover took a while and for the engine itself to update some things.

first item: more new enemies for the roster.

second item: level generation is now able to give the ship a stable hull. this took a while because as it turns out the math to determine "outside edge of the ship" was a bit more complex then first intended.

some weaknesses being addressed and features added

-games not spooky enough yet

-too one note if its the same type of ship over and over again

-out of map boundaries and can i make the level endless?

-level variety still too dry and empty

limited working code for painting planets, not all the sections work right just yet, sadly.
