Developments


Oh.. Workshop... :

-=-=-

I was going to avoid having to work on a couple of features of SoCoder2, like Wed.Workshop and "FLink" download pages, but I've now realised that, even if those pages are no longer active, they're still going to have to be in there, working like they used to.
People have no doubt linked to their Wednesday Workshop entries, and their download FLinks, and removing them the site would stop them from working.
Sure, they might be old links, but it's not up to me to suddenly kill the 0.00000001% of the internet that links to them.
So, today I'm going to have to set about fixing those, before I can safely replace the old site with the new one.

* FLink : People complained that they didn't have a download counter. Having to add an intermediate page for downloads, to act as that download counter, annoyed me quite a bit. So the page got the nickname "F' Link"
.. Once added, I don't think anyone ever actually used it.


Meanwhile



Over on the Golf-Game side of things, I started playing it, yesterday.
I'm fairly happy that the game is up to a moderately decent level of play.
Today I need to add things like Birdies, Eagles and other such golfing things.
I'm thinking a nice big titlecard popping into view would do for that, so will be replicating the style I've already used for the game's logo, and trying to make them look interesting.

I also need to work on the ingame GUI, which is currently showing the generic "3 lives and score" display. That needs to be replaced!

But otherwise, that game's looking fairly nice
.. Although there are still (!) overlap z-ordering issues with the player and the ball..



Daily Doodle : The HoverDuck




Platdude isn't sure why this vehicle was modelled on a duck, but it sure is a smooth ride.

Misc..



The golf game now plays,
but the UI's not done.
I need to add scores,
So you know when you've won.
