Don’t forget to document your work

So while at a robotics camp the past few days I deobfuscated the code of a virus script that’s been affecting computers across the campus for about a semester, and, well… I’m still trying to get over the fact the virus code was commented…
Anywho, the people who work in the computer lab now know what IP address to black list and have an idea of what the virus does to the computers so they can fix them.

TLDR: Commenting your code makes everyone’s life easier.

Dungeon Map Editor development

I’ve started working on a new version of a tile map editor I made while in high school now that I finally have some free time and it’s something I can focus on.

Here’s a concept sketch of the new interface:

Here’s a screen shot of the old interface for reference:

I also have to work on making a new sample tileset because the original artist for the one shown in the screen shot deactivated his deviantArt account and I rather not have someone else’s work in one of my projects if I can’t cite it with a valid link to the creator’s site.
