Developer Journal 95


Hmm. I left the simulation running overnight with the auto-save enabled but my computer crashed and reset before I arrived. There were also no save files. There's something wrong with the auto-save and there is probably some else wrong that caused my computer to reset unless there was a power failure. I'd love to get a backup power supply to cope with such situations.

I need to figure out how prevent a buffer from changing and to compile and run with one button press.

Grr. No wonder. I didn't call the function that was responsible for the auto-save.

Hmm. In Emacs, pressing control delete let's you delete from your current position to the next space or punctuation character. In buffers that you can't edit, it let's you jump to the next space or punctuation character.

Strange. When I load, one of the food blocks grows to a weird size. I'd like to implement mouse click so that I can select objects to get their properties.


Strange. Sometimes I feel a bit lost about what to do next. Getting the population up and running is my top priority at the moment.
