Mistakes

This screenshot looks worse than the last. The reason for this is I messed up with the work I did yesterday and most of today.

Since I had last worked on this project about 4 years ago I had forgotten a lot of the flow how everything was set up and even how far I had gotten. When pulling the repo down from the teams get I had simply grabbed /main and started working on the transition to Godot 4+ from it's original 3.5 base. I worked on that version most of yesterday and about half of today. I went and found the projects old "trello/kanban" like board, and saw some weird notes about how I had finished a protoype for the combat system, the full dialog system was complete, and the fishing system had been implemented along with a new material overhaul. Not wanting to have to re-do everything I kind of panicked.

I end up whipping out an old laptop I was using around that time and saw it had some code that was ahead but nothing that far ahead. Turns out I had used another PC to work on it toward the end of 2020. Luckily, as I was about to give up, I checked the team repository and saw there was a branch just labeled "Phase 2" and it had all of the aforementioned updates.

So this afternoon has been me scrambling to pull this much bigger version of Village of the Tinkerer into Godot 4+. So far this transition has been much more bumpy. Many of the camera functions I was using have been removed and the suggested replacement doesn't use the old targeting methods so the camera and materials are all broken again. I will work on it as I can throughout the week and drop info here as I get it done.
