SOSU Devlog #01 - Structured for the Future
Alright! Here's the low down, v0.3 of 2DSS PRO is released. Damn I'm tired, after I post this, I'm gonna sleep in for once.
Here is the list of changes::
- Optimization Tweaks
- Player / Entities are now anchored to the stage aka they won't slide with the camera
- Dynamic Camera Functions - Panning shots, Targeting, Smooth and Linear Panning, etc.
- Save Function Fix - Figured out a way to save and load where the player is at instead of loading from last loading screen.
- Entity Modes - Enable, Disable, or Hide entities
- Tutorial text file folders - more info if you have questions on how to do certain things
- Base dev tool kit added, Has base tools and cam tools for testing
- Numerous Various Fixes and Alterations of bugs and variable terms
I released a YouTube video of some of the new stuff from the update because posting all these gifs are a pain. Better a video.
To start I have laid the groundwork for the next update and fixed many things that did make sense for the time but to be honest, made zero sense now. So I removed variables that weren't going to be used, added some new systems and the big thing. . . ANCHORED THE DAMN PLAYER TO THE STAGE! So now instead of the player zippin and zoomin around he has world awareness. He can be off screen and hold his spot in the world without sliding with the camera. Also the camera, I am VERY happy with how it turned out. Took a while to get it just right but overall can be used to make some interesting cutscenes. All of these additions will help me get to my main goal. Vertical movement.
You might be like . . .bro . . .you can already move vertically. Well I mean things like adding, slopes, ladders, having stages and areas have things above the screen limit in the y plane. Also will be adding the z plane too. But that's enough about the future. Right now with this update I'll be starting my main project demo. (Just need to finish the assets)
Overall if there's bugs I missed let me know! Sometimes things slip through the cracks.
Also I'll give it a good shot to release updates more often, just hard to do sometimes because I forget, so Thank You for your patience!
Below is the email instructions if there's a bug or have any questions.
ALSO MAKE SURE TO BACK UP YOUR OLD VERSION BEFORE USING THE NEW VERSION! You don't know if something will break!

ALSO! Of course as a one man band, there might be bugs that slip past my tired eyes, I mean damn, while I was making the video I found more and more bugs, which made me hold back on releasing. That being said, if you find any bugs report them HERE - the.real.sauce.00@gmail.com
I have an auto sorter so you must put the text below in the subject [2DSS PRO - BUG - REPORT] - specific bug here Inside the email you must also send:
- the error text (traceback error text)
- copy markdown from error screen - copy & paste or send me traceback error txt
- video/image of the bug itself
- explanation of recreating the bug
The code template must be unaltered (huge revisions like overhauling code structures).
what I mean by this ^ is you can't just overhaul my template then complain about bugs, It needs to stay within my template. This isn't a help desk for your game, reports are for bugs for me to fix future updates of the template.
If I don't get back to you that means I'm busy or that means I am working on alot of bug fixes. OR you sent the message wrong and I can't see it. Make sure to follow the instructions above.
In the future this will be taken down primarily after the template is finished and is at a good balanced state. Once the bug is fixed respond back to the emails reply to confirm
Another email type I am accepting is
[ ASSET QUESTION ]
I have an auto sorter so you must put the text above in the subject
where you ask a question about assets I've created
Just make sure its a question pertaining to that alone haha anything else I probably won't respond.
If I don't get back to you that means I'm busy or that means I am working on alot of bug fixes.
