As far as elements for DBCM, you could also use Wood and/or Metal like the Wu Xing

I didn’t consider that directly, but the Wu Xing is actually a pretty interesting system that doesn’t get used as often. I’ll need to do more reading to implement it well, though.I have a couple of other mental models working, some which more closely add to the idea of a genetics system.

So I took like 10 damage in HabitRPG yesterday because I did none of my dailies. Writing it off as a mental health day and I'm going to get shit done today.

Writing: Minimum is 350 words, but I'd like to also do a half hour of planning on the project uswe inspired. So, that's 1 hour of writing.

Coding: I time in hours, so 1 hour of DBCM. Not sure what I'm going to do today. Maybe start the framework for the stable? Or I can start implementing the SQLite database so I don't have to use debug code anymore? Meh, I'll figure it out. (Toss suggestions at my ask box.)

Design and Development: Need to get on fixing the weird white space on my client website. It's kind of bothering me that I can't figure out why the CSS is doing what it's doing. 1 hour.

I should do a Code School lesson but I probably won't because I want to go boardgaming tonight. Need to leave around sixish to be there on time, kind of want to be there early. . . for once.

DBCM Update

Since Pyweek is over, this project is getting renamed to DBCM, so update your watched tags accordingly.

Today's effort was setting the framework for animating battle scenes. Since, ya know, it's a little boring without it. This meant setting up the battle frame from the menu screen, and start puzzling how to animate over time. The solution is of course setting a bunch of variables in the model that are "future" or something similar and setting the animation equation to move from current state to future state over time. Then of course when the animation is done and the animation is over, the model needs to commit the change to the actual values. No big deal, right?

So, the second issue is how to handle time. To date, I've been using Pygame's Clock module to handle it, but it's hooked directly to the model and it's the only pygame call in the model at the moment. So, the plan now is to cut that out and make that a new controller that I can manipulate in its own time. Of course, a second controller means either hooking in each one separately, or making a mediator for the controllers to listen to that handles subscription to the main mediator.

A quick branch and hour of puzzling later, and that's what's happening behind the scenes now. The game itself doesn't look any different. Yet.
