<h2>saturday, august 15 </h2>
|

|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Made a Python script that spits out new skill scenes for Godot after answering a little command line questionnaire. I could make it an plugin for the engine, but it would be a lot slower to develop + functionally no better. </li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Maybe I can rewrite it later in JSON, since Godot can read JSON. </li>

<h2>monday, august 17 </h2>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Research PHP + MySQL while attending. I think MySQL is overkill for my purposes, since all my articles couldn't possibly be that much data. It might be interesting for analyzing data, though, like adding a word cloud of the most common tags or a search feature. I'll keep things simple for now. </li>

<li>Help run a FlightRising community event while trying out ArcheAge, since my friends play it. </li>

<li>I told a friend I would play Go with him soon but was too busy with the raffle. Then someone told him I was online a lot in ArcheAge...oops...that looked bad lol. It wasn't like I played more than a few minutes at a time. I'm sorry, friend;; </li>
|
||
|
|
<li>finally get access to the code for an MMO some friends work on. I start familiarizing myself with the code and start planning my new feature. </li>

<h2>sunday, august 23 </h2>

<h2>tuesday, august 25 </h2>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Play around with CSS + HTML for the website. The CSS Grid didn't exist the last time I used CSS (for 2000s petsite profiles), so I'm more comfortable with floats. The Grid looks so worth learning, though, for more consistent and responsive web design. </li>
