Not as expected

I didn’t get much accomplished this weekend on my adventure game. While I did manage to get a ContainerThing class created, the next step kind of failed miserably.

ContainerThing was added as a descendent of the Thing:w class so that we can have chests and sacks; things that have to be opened and closed before user access. That all went pretty well. I did have to adapt to using instanceof in order to access the isOpenable field and the open() and close() methods. But it worked out.

General Update Stuff

I haven’t been able to post in a couple of days. I thought I would update things. Also, because I sometimes don’t have access to my primary server, I want my readers to know there is a backup. You can also reach me here. I keep a Codeberg page. I can sometimes upload to it quicker.

I like to write code in C. Why would I say such a thing?

First steps in programming

Now, that we have all the background covered, I want to show you the beginnings of programming. I will be showing you the steps to build and run the ubiquitous “Hello World” program in both C and Java. The C version will use the C99 standard ( though it matches most standards as well ) and the Java version will use Java 17 ( though it will likely run in whichever Java you have ). These two language standards will be where I will work as I write more posts.
