<li>It was below 80°F/27°C for the first time all year! My favorite season has finally arrived. Time for fall coat, fall spices perfume, and fall snacks! The heat has been miserable, even indoors, so it will not be missed. </li>
<li>Last time I started Blessfrey, it didn't run at all. I was really motivated to add an events and a cutscene, but I debugged the game instead. Today it works okay, but I realize you can no longer talk to Chloe. That makes a lot of sense, since I designed the move-do-something loop to only worry about combat. I should get confident about the controls for interact, activate, attack, talk, pick up, move to target, don't move to target, and probably lots of other potentially overlapping controls. So...I need to make more diagrams. <br>

<li>I wish I documented more. I want to document the current movement system better (even though it feels like I do that all the time) to better explain dots, nexts, waypoints, etc, and how they are derived. I also want a solid reference for what groups I'm using and what layers everything exists on/is affected by. Time to start some new documents. </li>
<li>The player doesn't move again. She was never advancing to the next dot. (Obviously the first dot in pathfinding will be the player's starting position.) I made the AI's method for getting the next dot skip anything at the player's global position, which works fine for now. I bet I'll run into more problems the next time she tries to pathfind around a curve, though. </li>
<li>I want to add dialog back in as part of an integration test, so the player needs to be able to interact with Chloe again. Of course, she mysteriously isn't tracked as interactable. Last time I remade the characters, I didn't get the layers/masks right, so I take the chance to make entities more consistent and improve my documentation. After that, I could start some dialog at interact, but Jiskan-16 is still bizarrely invisible in-engine and in-game at size 16. (How did that suddenly happen?? It's <em>made</em> for size 16!) After I match dialog's theme to the main menu theme (identical rn anyway), the text appears properly in the window once again. I've got dialog back. </li>
<li>I added an obstacle wall to break up the square testing room. Against my predictions, she can pathfind around corners. Whew. </li>
<li>Next, I want the player to use a skill on Chloe. The skills in the player's skillbar are generic'd and all the text doesn't display. (Stupid Jiskan.)</li>
