I have been coasting a bit with the rewriting of my quest script(s) – and by that I mean that I have been rewriting the script at a leisurely pace. Last night I noted that I had a calendar reminder: this is an update week and content for V729 is due this Friday.
I spent several hours today revising the script in earnest, rearranging sections of code that were infuriating me. I am pleased to report that I have made fine progress. I am not done, but I am close to being done – or at least close to done with the first rewrite, at which point I shall run the script on the test server and begin bug hunting.
I really want this quest in for V729, and I am going to try my best to make it happen. What I do not want to do is to rush the project into the live game and have it embarrass me. I figure that is less embarrassing to be late on delivering a project – and have it rock solid – than it is to deliver a project on time and have it overflowing with bugs.
"Soon" is real close.
[Edit] In unrelated tech news, Amazon buys voice recognition startup Yap to counter Apple's Siri.
"Yap?" The company's name is "Yap?" I don't know how I feel about that.

I would sue! "Yap"-py belongs to you! How dare a giant corporate "person" steal your identity. :)
ReplyDeleteBTW, you're right, better late and solid than on time and buggy — unless you're any big software development company that like to milk your customers. ;)
