Senior Project Day 2!

 We are back! Today I worked a lot more in-depth on the game. I created a timeline on what the commands would actually do and how to do it! This was very time consuming because of all the ideas I had in my head, and trimming them to make something that I could actually create in the time given to me during the senior project. I decided to turn the game more fully RNG based, like Dungeons and Dragons where they roll dice in order to find out what happens, rather than have my chat input a bunch of elements. This way, the entire game can be created from one command rather than many. The only issue with this is that the commands I will be making will be VERY long, Like, imagine a book series but all the books combined together into a MEGA BOOK, that is what these commands will look like. I think I got a lot of progress today. I started at 8am and went until 3pm today, for the grand total of 15 hours so far!

Senior Project Day 4!

 Hello! I am back again with day 4! So I got a lot of progress done today, I started the first command that will be run by me whenever I want the game to start, and got I'd say roughly  15-20% of it completed! I used that plan that I made before and whenever I got confused on how to do something, I asked either the forums or my mentor for help! I am learning a lot more about mix it up that I thought was ever possible, and I am very excited to continue the process of the game. I am thinking of different ways to do things as I work on the game, and it is really cool to see things from a different point of view once you are actually in the thick of things. The only issue that I am having for myself is a little bit of burnout from working so long on the same thing, however I am pretty confident I can get through it cause working with mix it up and my mentor is so fun. I worked from 8am to 3pm for a total of 7 hours today and 29 hours total.

Senior Project Day 5!

 Hello! Day 5 has arrived and so does more progress on the game! I did hit a little bit of a road-block today in the project and have not figured out a solution to it yet, but besides that, things are going well! I got a lot of progress done on the programming of the game, and we are right on track to finish it before graduation! The roadblock that I hit was how I am going to be giving out the boss loot to anyone who joins the game. Giving boss loot to 1 person is fine, but I have to figure out a way to loop the sequence until everyone gets their loot. Nobody wants to kill a boss and get nothing out of it! I am surprised however that this is the first major issue so far in my project, I thought there were gonna be many more than this starting way earlier in the process. Today I worked from 8am to 4pm for a total of 8 hours today and 37 hours total!

Senior Project Weekly Reflection 2

 Hello! I have another amazing reflection for you all. This week was very good for the programming side of the game! I have completed a lot of the programming of the game, and I started working on the responses that the game will be actually posting into the chat once the timer runs out. This is the last weekly reflection I will be doing for this project which is really crazy to me. I am on track for everything in my project, and can't wait for Express Fest! I figured out most of the loot loop issue that I have been struggling with previously. I found that the reason why it wasn't changing the usernames after giving someone the loot was actually because of me. I recently got a new computer, and the file location I saved the usernames was in a different place on my new computer, Meaning that it only saw the last users username because it couldn't see any others. I fixed that problem and got the game mostly working!     I won't be fully done with the game by Express Fest,...
