Build Update 2023/09/12


Another month has gone by, and there's lots of updates to share! There is now the thinnest sliver of a game loop in this build! It's not much, but units can purchase homes and find jobs, and go to work/come home on schedule. It's bare bones, the meat has yet to come.

  • Add chairs (cushion and wood) and fireplaces (no fire yet)
  • Developer created blueprints (i.e. templates)
  • Random wall assignment now considers building/room type
  • Fleshed out big tree placement/error handling
  • Traffic Lights ! ! ! 
  • Fixed zoom in choppyness
  • Sidewalks now save in the save file
  • Outdoor object nudge collision check
  • Improved traffic AI
  • Prevented cars from driving over each other
  • Cars glide to shift lanes, instead of turn
  • Loading a saved game is much faster now
  • Units can use cars to get from point A to point B
  • Exterior walls now have an empty space for doors (just like interior)
  • Fixed units disappearing at the bottom of the screen
  • Added missing logic for road output/one way curves
  • Basic road placement assistment tool
  • Fixed blueprint image load CPU spike
  • Fixed roofs drawing over trees
  • Default select first blueprint if available
  • Fixed inability to place outdoor objects adjacent to a building's NORTH or WEST wall
  • Added mass-replace window and roof functionality
  • Added AUTO SAVING. THIS WILL OVER-WRITE THE MAIN SAVE TOO (sorry, this is temporary, since the game can only have one save!)
  • Cars now have 8 degrees of rotation
  • User can delete blueprints now
  • Blueprints now auto-rotate to connect to road
  • Cant place if driveway does not connect to road
  • Added option to show/hide big trees
  • Fixed inability to delete outdoor floor in one click
  • Added highway that passes through the map, with outside traffic passing through
  • Outside traffic can purchase homes and become citizen
  • Placing businesses will create jobs, units will go to work/come home on schedule
