Now I\u2019m working on something boring: fixing small stuff\u2026 <\/p>\n

In this case, prop placement on the pirate lairs. Currently, a lot of the props get in front of doors, have wrong bounding boxes, etc.<\/p>\n

For example:<\/p>\n

\"screen416\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In this case, the table has a bad pivot point and the size is not aligned with the voxel system, so that happens\u2026<\/p>\n

That one is fixed now, but I have other props with those sort of problems, and this is very time consuming (I have to understand what the problem is, implement the solution, which sometimes require re-exporting the assets, etc)\u2026<\/p>\n

I\u2019m also thinking on categorizing my todo list, so that I do a sequence of polish work (fun), tweaks (less fun), optimize (can be fun, usually isn\u2019t) and bugs (no fun at all) before going back to polish\u2026 That way I can keep my motivation a bit higher\u2026 \"Smile\"<\/p>\n

Link of the Day: I love hex-based stuff, it looks so much nicer than square\/rectangle-grid based games\u2026 But it\u2019s a lot of work because of some details, so I\u2019ve avoided it for a long time\u2026 Here\u2019s a nice article about cool stuff regarding hex-grids:
