|
- Forest rangers allocatable as law enforcement? @maybe
|
|
|
Have to think about thematic implications
|
|
|
- Have an "enforce trespassing" policy
|
|
|
Seems like a good way to get started?
|
|
|
Reduces cost of vandalism repair?

- Assistant warns when a lot of the map has been made into preserve?
|
|
|
Maybe a lot made into preserve at once?
|
|
|
- Congratulations when reaching a majority @done(2022-12-14)
|
|
|
Maybe 75 percent
|
|
|
- Make them less easy to game
|
|
|
Right now they are free to add and remove, meaning you could make the whole map preserve until you need it for something else
|
|
|
One option: penalize if user switches them too early
|
|
|
Another option: charge nominal amount
|
|
|
Another option: benefits take time to accrue. Avoids punishment
|
|
|
Maybe a combination: benefits accrue after an area has been preserved for a while? Tourism ceases immediately. And you don't get offers to build on that land? Or fewer offers?
|
|
|
Staff:

|
|
- Ranger staffing? @maybe @milestone(1: Basic Money)

Don't want to be too derivative

|
Leisure:

|
- Figure out how to differentiate this from forest health
|
|
|
- Hat Trick: Satisfaction, Forest Health, **and** Self-Sustaining
|
|
|
- Figure out extent that this should even be possible?
|
|
|
Thematically, maybe dubious?
|
|
|
On the other hand, could be something that requires luck
|
|
|
It's possible in SimSafari
|
|
|
- Land repatriation to indigenous @maybe
|
|
|
Like the acknowledgement, don't want it to be too white savior-y (although obv. player isn't necessarily white)
|
|
|
- Research center @maybe
|
|
|
Community:
|
|
|
Differing reputation with different groups. Could mix more and less political.
|
|
|
Don't want to go too Democracy 3/4: being able to affect the group size via policy is probably out. (Groups being intersectional might work, but is kind of tricky.)
|
|
|
Maybe a procedurally generated set of groups with some hard-coded elements? E.g
|
|
|
|
|
|
Misc:
|
|
|
- Assistant commentary @milestone(5: Events)

|
|
- Graphs window @done(2021-01-05)
|
|
|
Could use ImPlot for this
|
|
|
|
|
|
Structure:
|
|
|
- Add modes
|
|
|
- Refactor stuff out of FNAGame
|
|
|
At this point, virtually everything in FNAGame is setting up key Engines or doing drawing
|
|
|
- Saving @prototyped @milestone(4: Beginning)
|
|
|
- Options are duplicated in too many places:
|
|
|
- Replace Options with OptionComponent?
|
|
|
- Put Options in OptionMessage?
|
|
|
- Remove Options from Encompass?
|
|
|
Options don't seem like a great fit for th ECS model.
|
|
|
- OptionsWindow should use two Options instances instead of recreating each field.
|
|
|
Adding an option requires adding variabls
|
|
|
- Encompass @maybe @done(2021-04-03)
|
|
|
Currently thinking about a hybrid model where the Simulation class receives a lot of the events from Encompass. so things like Events, Contracts, and Research agreements are handled by Encompass. Perhaps Input, too?
|
|
|
- Ensure library loads
|
|
|
- Windows
|
|
|
- Linux @done(2021-04-19)

|
|
|
Technically done
|
|
|
- Decide how to handle ImGUI ref parameters
|
|
|
Basically have to decide whether to embrace its style or go toward a more functional approach
|
|
|
- Add Ink @maybe
|
|
|
- Add NuGet package @done(2021-08-14)
|
|
|
- Load .Ink files @done(2021-08-14)
|
|
|
- Rewrite Dialog to show Ink @done(2021-08-14)
|
|
|
- SetTextVariable also sets variables within Ink
|
|
|
Technically doesn't have to be done this way, but having what would essentially be separate namespaces for Tracery variables and Ink ones seems confusing.
|
|
|
- Integrate with Tracery @done(2021-08-14)
|
|
|
Could run everything through Tracery or could create an Ink function that calls Tracery
|
|
|
- Change conversation to use Encompass @milestone(5: events) @done(2021-08-04)
|
|
|
- Refactor out common ImGUI patterns
|
|
|
- Tooltips @done(2021-08-21)
|
|
|
- Status indicators (not yet implemented) @done(2021-08-21)
|
|
|
By status indicators, I mean putting an icon on, say, the Contracts button to indicate a contract is about to expire.
|
|
|
- Rearchitect to avoid giving everything access to Simulation
|
|
|
- Add a start screen @milestone(4: Beginning) @done(2021-06-08)
|
|
|
- Add a create park dialog @milestone(4: Beginning)
|
|
|
- Procgen park names (that player can override)
|
|
|
- Button to generate new name?
|
|
|
- Allow player to choose title @maybe @done(2021-07-29)
|
|
|
Some possibilities: Mr., Ms., Mx., Director, Dr., Professor, Miss, Col., Herr Dr. Dr. nothing, custom
|
|
|
Might be fun to have tiny acknowledgement of choice — probably dialog only, no mechanical change. (E.g., a researcher might allude to you having a PhD. or an enby character might say something comiserating.)
|
|
|
- Allow player to choose difficulty @done(2021-07-30)
|
|
|
I'm thinking: Easy would be constant subsidy, Medium would be declining subsidy, and Hard would be none.
|
|
|
Could name them Benevolent, Austerity, and Hostility? Or Conservationist, Austerity, Libertarian? (Maybe too pointed!) I kind of like describing these as the government's "orientation" or "attitude" toward park.
|
|
|
- Allow player to choose profile image @maybe
|
|
|
Same style as rest of the game (dithered b&w, at least right now)
|
|
|
- Basic In-game menu @milestone(4: Beginning) @done(2021-06-13)
|

|
At minimum, New Game, Quit, and Quit to Menu
|
|
|
- Graphics options

- Add to in-game menu @done(2021-06-13)
|
|
|
- Additional in-game menu
|
|
|
- Save
|
|
|
- Save & Quit
|
|
|
- Fix selection
|
|
|
Selections require two components to really work, which is messy and doesn't really fit. A Selection without some sort of associated selection that describes what's selected doesn't really work
|
|
|
- Turn tools into classes?
|
|
|
Creating a shallow hierarchy seems a little nicer than the current setup.

Music and Audio:

Sound Effects:
|
|
|
- Generic click sound (push button) @done(2022-05-09)
|
|
|
- Cheer/boo crowd sound effect

This is a sorta easter egg and a reference to SimCity
|

Issues:
|
|
|
- Seeing up to 32 ms in update on framework-release? @done(2022-05-16)
|
|
|
- Drawing very large areas is very slow. @done(2022-05-16)
|
|
|
Sorta fixed
|
|
|
- Slows to a halt (~7fps) when drawing many preserve squares.
|
|
|
Drawing each tile individually is very silly when it's just a (big) square anyway.
|
|
|
For edges: Using a dictionary with counts doesn't work either. (~5 fps) Nor using sets.
|
|
|
Instead need to do the fill and edge-drawing as large regions.
|
|
|
- Draw slows down after merely leaving it running @done(2022-11-14)
|
|
|
Debug issue; could be faster but basically solved
|
|
|
Structural improvements:
|
|
|
- Button to clear/thin debug buffers?
|
|
|
Take every nth to reduce counters to past 100 measurements
|
|
|
- Disable some timing code in release mode?
|
|
|
Needs some way to enable it.
|
|
|
- Avoid redrawing tiles every time?
|
|
|
Draw tiles once into buffer
|
|
|
Instrumentation:
|
|
|
- Time individual sections of update loop @done(2022-05-16)

- Adjust window dimensions when font changes
|
|
|
- Option to Turn off bad outcomes or disasters @maybe
|
|
|
- Dyslexic-friendly font @maybe @done(2021-06-26)
|
|
|
Cursory research indicates open sans-serif fonts are best,
|
|
|
although fonts only help so much. (Monospaced fonts are also cited as good options so Iosevka might already be good enough. Still, I added Roboto.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Screen reader support @maybe
|
|
|
Would probably be a big undertaking (sort of opposite to the web, where things tend to be accessible unless you start reimplenting things or going more advanced)
|
|
|
- Investigate .NET support for screen readers
|
|
|
- Ask on social media
|
|
|
- Moontools Discord
|
|
|
- FNA Discord
|
|
|
- Mastodon
|
|
|
- Figure out a good screen reader to use for testing
|
|
|
- macOS
|
|
|
- Windows
|
|
|
- Linux
|
|
|
- Look for prior art
|
|
|
- Add a "describe" button/key that speaks the current scene @maybe
|
|
|
- No fees when contracts break
|
|
|
- Contracts go dormant instead of ending.
|
|
|
Other QoL things:
|
|
|
- Adjust display size @done(2021-06-23)
|
|
|
- Toggle trees translucency
|
|
|
Right now we hide trees outright, which probably should be limited to debugging
|
|
|
- Right click to center @done(2021-06-06)
|
|
|
Internationalization:
|
|
|
- Probably won't pay to translate or anything, but should consider setting up the structure @maybe @milestone(4: Beginning)
|
|
|
If nothing else, might be useful for future projects.
|
|
|
Balance:
|
|
|
- Hard mode is impossible with current map size.
|
|
|
Upkeep is too much money.
|
|
|
Might be addressed by adding staff instead of fixed upkeep.

Bugs:

|
|
- Can keep playing after losing if you don't acknowledge the loss in the dialog
|
|
|
- Create preemption/priority system

Have to decide whether to have two levels: normal/preempting or a series of priorities
|
|
|
- Expired areas can't be reused. @done(2021-08-07)
|
|
|
- Trees seem to spawn in lines.
|
|
|
Is it only spawning neighbor trees in one direction?
|
|
|
Dialog:
|
|
|
- Dialogs don't appear after
|

Crashes/Stability:
|
|

|
|
|
Tries to draw area?

|
- Crash when extending preserve past bottom. @done(2022-04-27)
|
|
|
- Segfault on quit (when it tries to dispose of the sound) or on playing sound on Linux
|
|
|
May be due to a quirk of my Linux setup
|
|
|
- Weird ImGui crash:
|
|
|
dotnet: /home/alys/repos/outside/ImGui.NET-nativebuild/cimgui/imgui/imgui.cpp:6293: bool ImGui::Begin(const char*, bool*, ImGuiWindowFlags): Assertion `name != __null && name[0] != '\0'' failed.
|
|
|
- Crashes after exiting a game.
|
|
|
Seems to be a draw issue (Batch hasn't begun.)
|
|
|
In Area renderer?
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
Misc:
|
|
|
- Starting a game after exiting a previous one doesn't really work, afaict
|
|
|
Also crases, but I suspect the crash isn't related.
|
|
|
- Events may not be deleted
|
|
|
- Exits are messy (does Encompass add threading?) @done(2021-11-28)
|
|
|
Appears to be fixed by using Game.Exit
