The last interview I was waiting on turned me down as well. I've a few callbacks that're in the process of becoming interviews and a few emails to companies waiting for replies. I hate this tedium and continual failure without any good ways to improve my prospects.

Still, there are poor ways. I clea…

Job hunting continues without progress. Moe work has all but ceased due to job hunting and motivational issues. In the meantime, here's a screenshot, and links to people actually doing some work.


[edit: by the way, I've never understood peoples' fascination with bitmaped fonts. They're tons more wor…

Eh, the horrible weekend took longer to blow over than I expected, and even got worse if that's possible before lightening up a little this morning. I still cannot bring myself to work much more on moe with the flood of [disorganized] things that still need done, the job hunt, and the lack of relax…

I am in a foul mood.

One of the interviews from last week turned me down, and the other isn't due to decide for a few more days at the latest. This means I get to call my folks for Mother's day and dance around unemployement while knowing full well they're intelligent enough to know that no "yay! I…

It's within that 1-2 weeks that I'm supposed to hear back from last weeks' interviews. I hate waiting and being ready to act friendly and professional in the face of 'sorry, other candidate was a better fit' at any moment is tiring and makes me nervous.

Progress is slow. Off of this thread I got a …

I jotted down some profession info for MoE (in the design doc [link is to last revision]). Need to do a bit more brainstorming [or hear others brainstorm a little] to gather what the profession code is going to need to be able to do. For those interested:

Fixed up the test mapgen to actually spawn a unit [rather than sending partial messages], and the unit layer to actually check for them [rather than just drawing one at 1,1,0].

The result is an actual unit which I can select, and the UnitBox can give me details for:



Not much, but it's hard to give mo…

Ahem. I found one of the major slowdowns I think. The UI layer was rendered as many transparent tiles which acted as mouse targets for recentering the map. Rather than rendering to texture, I just removed the layer's rendertree() call. The input handler uses visibility, and will nicely ignore the l…

Due to some of the performance problems [see below] I poked around at Rendering to Texture, and then just displaying that. From vague memories of forum posts made by those who know more than me, that's the way to go. Seems reasonable without any knowledge.

Anyways, it was actually pretty easy to se…
