ugh i have a rash on my wrist again, starting to suspect the cool wristband i bought at sparkle isnt really nickel free

to elaborate, rmmv draws text a completely different way to sprites, and sprites have a rotate function already, so the Bitmap extension i wrote will be useless

unless i release this as a plugin, which i might,

the best part of having spent 5 hours figuring out how to rotate text is that it's just placeholder text that i'll probably swap out for images once i get the gameplay how i want it

ok i thought i'd found an existing function that calculated the height of a font but then i checked the code and uh, well,

wow why is finding the height of a font in pixels so damn hard

like. taking fabric outta the armpit fixes problems at the top of the shoulder somehow? tailoring is magic bullshit

no one asked for it but here's an update on that denim jacket i bought the shoulders in on a month back or so:

i threw some patches on it and wore it a couple times but noticed it slipped off my shoulders real easy and had a lot of excess fabric around the arm and thought i'd done something wrong? turns out i just need to take it in under the arms and that somehow fixes everything

so i was intending to get rolling with some of the other aspects of the battle system for this silly rpg maker game but then i realised it'd be cool if i could replace the default actor command selection menu with one that looks and spins like a carnival wheel and uh

i've entered plugin hell again folks

i mean. i could put the computer on the floor but i'd definitely keep kicking it by accident

ughhh i wish i had room to set up a second monitor... it was so useful for dev work, especially when messing with graphics stuff

puttin on lego rock raiders lps as background noise cos i love hearing "A LANDSLIDE HAS OCCURRED" every 10 seconds
