Night Shifts Suck...

But at least this is the last one....for now anyhow 0.o. I'm attempting to finish my 2500 word report on the project by midnight tonight. I've another hour or so of work, and I've gotten 1532 words in so far, according to MS Word. Not bad for maybe 2 hours of actual work lol!

So looking forward to a more sane schedule, though since I'm considering taking 5 classes when I only need 2 more to graduate, I wonder what's really sane anymore ;) Oh and that video....Still INC. I'll get around to it once I've had more than 5 hours of sleep >.<

Artificial Intelligence is SO funny!

And no, that's not a gibe at stupid people. They can be funny though (mostly just irritating). Anyhow, so I have to present my game to the CS department chair in an hour, and I was spending the last few hours on the AI of "The Game". That is, I started the AI a few hours ago :D It's all good though, it's actually working fairly decently. It could be SO much better, though, so I don't intend to leave it like it is.

Back to my title for today, I spent about 10 minutes laughing my ass off while I watched the AI fly in looping circles trying to race around the track. It was kinda like watching a bumblebee on crack :P Every time I thought it was about to go the right way, the ship would shout "I AM A WALRUS!" and go the other way! Well it would have if I had sound done. I'm so putting that in!

It's fixed now, obviously. Video in a few days, stay tuned!

Sometimes....

Sometimes when I'm coding, I occasionally get the urge to put "I am a genius, teeheehee!" in the code. Then I remember the Brillant Paula Bean. Somethings are perhaps best left unsaid ;)

Coding Into the Wee Hours of Insanity...

I've come to the realization that trying to code while tired is a virtual waste of time. I spent an hour debugging code a few days ago that I solved in minutes just now with a fresh perspective. Better off getting some winks and coming back later :/

About a week before the practicum project is due. I'm doubtful it will be complete (to the extent of my original proposal, that is), but I've pulled off bigger miracles in less time. I certainly plan to keep working on it even after the due date, however. It's just too much fun ;)
