11:18am - So my big day of things finally came and went, yesterday. Got my medical done in the morning, did my written test (More like poking a screen test) for upgrading my license, and went to my counselling appointment. After that Rob and I went to the Thuan Kieu for a good meal, and then we came home and played Pathfinder with our friends, ending our second campaign. Lots of fun was had. <3
Now it's the next day and life goes on. I've emailed my hopefully future employer and they've responded to congratulate me and say they'll send me a training schedule soon. I didn't get a 'full night' of sleep so I'm a little dozey, but not enough to sleep more. And for whatever reason, I felt like trying to do some work.
So, what work am I actually going to do? Well I've got this nice textbook called Artificial Intelligence For Games by Ian Millington and John Funge and I think I'm going to use it to do some more AI experiments.
That's pretty vague though, so let's set a more specific goal. First I'm going to open the book, and then I'm going to read bits of it until I find something I want to try implementing. I might also download some of the book's online content and compile it, to see how that goes.
11:54am - I'm having some trouble building the code so I'm updating my Visual Studio install and making sure I have all the bits I'm supposed to. I'm getting more tired so I might lay down with the book for a while.
10:11pm - Well I laid down with the book at my side and promptly fell asleep for nine hours. Geez. I thought I might fall asleep for an hour or two, but nine hours? After I had already slept for seven last night? Wow.
Well, at least the job I left my laptop doing is done now. I'll see if I can have any more luck compiling that code.
10:57pm - Yeah no dice. I'm not sure what's going wrong but the code isn't able to find the standard C/C++ headers like stdio etc.
I don't know what's causing that. I'm using Visual Studio 2017 community edition, and it's set up to be used for both C# and C/C++ so it should have all the standard C/C++ headers ready. Why can't it find them? I don't know.
I'll try to figure it out next time.
