Tinker Tuesday for March 11, 2025

This thread is for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers.

Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.

If you want to be pinged with a reminder asking about your project, let me know, and I'll harass you each week until you cancel the service

How have you been doing @Southkraut?

Managed to finally push to my repo. The key was to not name the .gitignore file anything other than “.gitignore”. Luckily I already had it configured correctly otherwise, so that one fix did the trick.

Trundled along with the current tutorial. Not much to report.

Worked on my first-person control concept. I try to strike a balance between traditional FPS controls and a certain amount of contextual automation that allows for a wider range of actions than normal without forcing the player to memorize two hundred keybinds. It’s probably overambitious and not usually done for good reasons, but I always wanted to try this.
