So who cant keep a constant posing rate? This guy. Lets pretend I never mentioned that post/day goal eh? Cool. Anyways, I have been up to somethings. (Sadly not Mass Effect 3, but I actually still need to finish the first one anyways.) Regardless, been helping with my girlfriend’s game project by making semi-stylistically bad animated things. Partly because at this point I can’t do that much better. As well as less animated but better looking terrain. Makes for an interesting contrast.
On Dwarf Fortress, my fort is choking with it’s >150 population, roaming animals, and the deadliest waterfall I’ve had the displeasure of embarking near. I started anew finding a calmer flatter locale. Thus begins fortress Shippets. Name leads me to attempt a large animal breeding and trading industry, which could be fun to try. I landed myself beside a river still frozen and covered under snow. If I am going to survive here I will have to hope I did not have the misfortune of perma-frozen landscape. If that is so, I may have to dig for underground sources of water quickly before my booze stockpiles and food stockpiles run out.
On Project Euler.
Got my first twenty five down! Only ~350 left to go.
Okay, yesterday slipped by without a post so I guess I owe you all two posts today. How about this one will be on Project Euler and the other will be a Helmssmith update? Sound good? Sure.
So problem 23 is about abundant numbers, or numbers where the sum of their divisors adds up to be more then the number itself. In other cases the number is ‘perfect’ or ‘deficient’. After learning that bit of trivia, the question is what is the sum of all positive numbers that can not be made by adding two abundant numbers. For reasons you don’t have to check any higher then just over twenty eight thousand.
Welp, at first I thought it was just looking for the highest number meeting that criteria. Nope. Then I was having trouble with numbers that were smaller then the smallest abundant number, it was only flagging even ones up until they got big enough to work correctly. I think this is the first time I’ve used do while loops and I kind of like them. Also I may go back and swap the test for abundance with a search in the list of abundant numbers generated. Lets see how long it takes me to implement binary search. Woo.
Okay, yeah, not going to happen. I finally got the code for problem 22 working but my sorting method is messy and a bit clunky. My poison is C++ in Visual Studio Express, but I can’t say I’ve really tried much else. It fun to work through Project Euler except for when your code refuses to work and it takes a while for you to even come up with some test case that will smoke out the problem.
The next one looks easier at least but I’m not sure if I’ll keep going or maybe play more of the new Dwarf Fortress release. Now with vampire dwarves sneaking around the fort draining people and werewolves coming on the full moon my fortress will be even harder to defend.
Alright, it’s on the forums. Thread. It’s been a while since I’ve posted there. Even longer since I’ve posted a level. Even if it is just a reskin, the tileset is new. Though it still sits unfinished, today I ended up for the most part working on Project Euler and I spent longer then I’d like to admit figuring out why my program thought every year was leap year. Tomorrow maybe I’ll be brave enough to post some of my code from a problem off Project Euler.
Also: 
Helped my girlfriend with a project of hers by making this lighting potion, power up thing. Really pleased with how the lighting and the animation in general turned out. Maybe there is some hope for me and animating sprites after all.
So I guess an introduction of sorts. I am Dukit Webber, internet denizen. I enjoy making levels and maps for games and such. I’ve really only put out levels for Knytt Stories and to be honest that was years ago. The hope is if I start this tumblr that I might release some more of these things. Not just limiting myself to more Knytt Stories levels but I’ll probably drop Minecraft or Dwarf Fortress projects or just a room I carved out of a hill. I’ve also been on a Project Euler bent so those might end up here as well so all of you, as of writing: one person, can see my amateur programming but comments are welcome and maybe I’ll get better.
As for that video, it’s Reason my last Knytt Stories level played by a man with a classy sense of music. I’d recommend playing it, the game is free and the level is on somewhere.
