@atinyfairy regret tinged with loneliness and feeling invalid, I guess :X

@atinyfairy and, like, a late additional thought on this, but like

When I look around nowadays, I see people who are like, 21, 19, 16 sometimes, building and doing unbelievable things, who have so much talent and are using it amazingly

and, like, I never really made *anything* when I was younger? I don't have any sort of portfolio or prior work of any kind and it feels like it's too late now, and all these people who are actually talented will deservedly go places and leave me behind I guess?

@atinyfairy I'm afraid that being 30 will make it even harder for me to get my foot in places doing programming or IT or anything, and even though I left college wanting a job working on games in some form I don't know if I'll ever be able to really do that at all anymore :S

I guess I haven't found myself, in some sense, and getting older is just reminding me of that?

@atinyfairy I just don't know how to deal with it yet I guess? .-.

I mean, I've been out of a job for three years now, feel like I probably couldn't get anything decent anymore, don't feel like I accomplished anything since entering college 12 years ago, and don't really know what to do with myself anymore...

Goals for this year:
* Finish the IS2 project
* Design and finish at least one game
* Find some way of getting income, whether from a job or otherwise
* Stop panicking over not being in my twenties ;~;

@unascribed Eeee I wondered who did this! :3 I half-planned on registering it a while ago and setting up exactly what you did but never got around to it...

@mermaidindustries Is this game called Z-Fighter?

This is totally a useful function.

Fixed it~

@dr1ft@dev.glitch.social I wonder why that even exists? Does Discord itself use it somehow? Were they planning custom non-centralized sites somehow (maybe commercial servers, like Slack or something)? Was it just some debugging feature that wasn't removed?

Except... the continue arrow also references those parameters, but the bank has already been restored when it tries drawing it, so it's using incorrect/invalid data when determining where it should draw that arrow.

I'll probably just have to find the continue arrow code and hook it somehow, just like my custom text code...

When IS2 draws a dialogue box on screen, it uses a particular 3-byte memory address for loading the window parameters from; and since all window parameters are in the same bank, it never updates the bank byte in that address.

I've moved all my custom code out into a new bank, though, including window parameters, so I have a hack in place that saves, replaces, and restores that bank byte when it loads custom text...
