Voidbarker, the next Ludum Dare is the weekend of October 4th. If you want to get involved, let me know.



I finally fixed the issue I was dealing with. This, in and of itself, would normally be awesome, but taking a retrospective of the whole thing... very much not awesome. There were five distinct bugs working together to stymie me, and one of those bugs had already been fixed and it was the aftereffects lingering in the data that gave me grief, so I wasn't able to reproduce the problem in a test environment.

Beyond that... there were two separate places where the algorithm's data collection was missing information, and two separate calculations that were producing the wrong results. None of them would cause the problem on their own, and any one of them being fixed wouldn't be enough to solve the problem completely, so that meant that my tests were still failing after making changes so it looked like I was looking in the wrong place... but I WASN'T. >_<

I'm glad it's all taken care of, but I didn't get it all shipped out and verified until like 9:30 last night and I still have to deal with auditing everything today to make sure we didn't miss any hotel rooms this weekend.
