Progress on Birth of Legends has greatly slowed down this past month, for various reasons which have been posted previously. Since my last post I've had a toe injury and a small amount of homework for once. But, these small excuses really aren't what's slowing me down. So I've been thinking about what should be done for progress to be made and have been trying to figure out what's really slowing me down. And, after much thinking about the situation I have figured out the biggest thing that's slowing me down: lack of goals and preparation.
What that means is that while yes, I have had many goals from week to week, I never really solidified the big picture of the game causing chaos in the order of goals and in the code. Chaos code-wise is the biggest problem right now. To fix this problem I'm going to have to use the second thing that I've lacked in the past; preparation. It's true that in the forums, on paper, and in emails I have created the big picture which is BoL. But, what I've failed to do is to put all that information into one place so I can rationally work on coding everything without chaos. So, for the next week or so I'm going to be working mainly on that and finish what was started at the beginning of this project. During this time of planning I'm going to be updating most, if not all, of the information pages here on the site as well as reassessing what my programming goals should actually be. If anyone wants to help me with compiling information I'm welcome to the help. I can't wait to get back to the old trend of constant updates.

p.s. The server is down. I'm not sure when this happened but I noticed it yesterday and I'm going to send some emails to find out the problem. I'll post again once I find out what's up with that as well.
