Weekly development report 2025/11/15

As usual, dad jokes help me find bugs in the stable version of the game. ;) Or at least that's what it looks like. All one bug was found this week. There are probably a few others waiting their turn somewhere. Latest find:

• Fixed checking if the player has the appropriate tools to perform Study and Deconstruct recipes.

The development version of the game keeps moving forward. All the time, the most attention is paid to the new UI for the game. Besides, most of the recent changes have been rather invisible to players:

• While working on a new UI for the game, I'm still on the crafting screen. Basic things like displaying a list of available recipes have already been done. A dialog for displaying information about individual recipes is currently being developed. I'll probably spend some time here as usual.
• The side task related to the new UI, i.e., work on the library used to create it, is moving very slowly forward. This week it was mostly organizational work, like organizing code or renaming certain types.
• The same bug found in the stable version of the game also existed in the development version. And it should also be fixed.
• I spent some time adding new tests to the game code to try to catch more bugs. The latest find is the result of this work. ;)
• New task related to the quality of items in the game. I started working on the ability to set the desired quality when creating items. For now, work is at a very early stage; the UI for setting has only just been created. I should have a little more information on this next week.
• And the game code got some improvements and small reorganizations as usual. That is, the standard fun of the last weeks, months, and years. ;)
