Been having an amazing day full of productivity. Got some planning for some systems done such as the undo/redo system.
Planning
Big part today was planning to figure out what to do next, I started with the UI part of the timeline, worked on how I would implement the undo/redo system and been cleaning up some of my previously written GDScript stuff as it has been some time since I looked at the GDScript side of things. The testroom may dissapear out of the project in the next coming weeks as it will probably lose its value as soon as we got the other stuff working in the main editor window. I also started subdividing stuff into separate windows.
Start screen is now a floating window which opens the editor window when opening/creating a project. Settings and project settings are floating menu’s now as well, but those will probably have to be re-done as I don’t want people to be working in the editor with the (project)settings menu open.
Productivity
Been having such a productive day and I think the main reason is that I am doing lots of things, but switch between them. Not great if I want to work on things which require lots of prolonged attention such as the ffmpeg stuff, but works well to actually get stuff done.
The apartment has not looked this clean since my first months of being a stay at home dad. Really happy and motivated today to get work done. Could also be because I set myself some rewards to look forward to.
December plans
There are still some days before No zero days November is over, but I would like to talk a bit about how December will go. Beginning of December I’ll be quite busy catching up to work for my other youtube channels, I’ll also start updating TeleDot a bit as I started mentioning annoying “bugs” and improvements which should be made so I can make my videos a bit more smoothly.
I also have family stuff planned for the first week and of course at the end of the month there is the whole holiday season. I’m not much of a holiday person but my family thinks it is important so I guess I have no option but to join them. They do however know that I am not the most social person and that I like to get work done so they don’t mind if I spend an hour or two behind my PC each day during those holiday days.
But basically, schedule is quite packed, middle of December is where I’ll get most work done probably.
Version 1 release date
Talking about a release date is still way too early and I also won’t be promising anything like that. What I can do is say with a small amount of confidence that the timeline’s first version may be finished by February … probably. Possible that it happens sooner, but I want to play it safe by setting deadlines.
Talking about playing it safe, I could see a first version release by the end of next year hahahha. As this is the first version, everything still needs to be build, so setting deadlines is quite difficult.
Conclusion
Only about 2 days left of this 1 month challenge, I’ll try my best, but I started to think that maybe the timeline stuff should wait till after my first week of December is over so I can have multiple days in a row of work done on it. I’ll see how I’ll do it, I’ll slowly get going with it and I’ll see how far I can get.
