[Overview]

I took a long break from updating my blog. It was a long, tedious, and painful break. But now I think it’s a good time to start everything up again!

[Plans for the week]

1. .chunk file save/load system

Everything starts again.

With the help of GPT6-Astra, I managed to rewire the Foxtrot Engine, which consists of multiple DLL libraries, so that it works again. However, after analyzing the generated code, I found some additional features that need to be modified and implemented to make the engine fully functional. Hopefully, it won’t take long, since I’ve already programmed the entire functionality before. However, restructuring the ‘.chunk’ file seems to be quite tricky.

What is a ‘.chunk’ file?

A ‘.chunk’ file is like a scene file in Unity. It contains all the information about the data that should be brought into a scene when it loads. Before dividing the Foxtrot Engine into multiple DLL files, the ‘.chunk’ structure was quite simple, since a list of actors and their components was all it contained. Now, however, I might need an additional feature that specifies which DLL file should be loaded and provides access to the components needed from that DLL.
