We're already at day 8?
Well I guess that's… true.
Today I needed to convert colors from hex values to percentages, and oddly, there isn't a löve function to do that (that I am aware of) so I wrote one… or started to, in lua, and then just hit the strangest situation with going thru hex strings where the last 2 items didn't want to index correctly… it would could 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,15 … and "um, what?"
So I switched to python which took 5 minutes to do… except that I was using the emacs setup at first and I'm not used to that new setup (not my setup, someone else's that I'm looking at due to better lua/love behavior) and it was… doing odd things with commenting which I did not really want it to do. Luckily, I have wingide, which I tend to use anyway for it's debugger… and so…
after doing that, I got the drawing in place and STILL need to look at a hex map with raised/lowered hexes and see how it should look with the corners. Right now, I have some… good looking ones, and some "why is that overlapping" - which I believe I need to handle via sorting… but am not 100% sure. I may just need to look at the "cells" to the top 3, and draw accordingly… or bottom…
but we'll see when I look tommorrow.
