Rolling Along

Update on the development: Fixed some compile problems, and setup the added tile indicators. The plan is to have the indicator to indicate where the tile is placed (might even use different color to indicate different set), and when the user press refresh or change level etc, the stage will reconstruct with the new tile setup.
I have also decided to use Windows Form for the editor instead of the old WinAPI. It's much easier to use and has much more support. Yesterday I just thought of how to make a easy switch. I will just add in new forms, and slowly transfer the functionality from the current windows to it. That way I can avoid a lot of hassle like setting up a new project etc. Hope this scheme will work.
But it also makes me realize that the new tools etc keep rolling out, and I have to stay updated on what is available and what can be utilized and integrated etc. This process of scouting and evaluating etc I would say is a difficult task in itself. Yet again I feel I could have moved the development much faster if I can work on it full time. It would be easier to move into a zone etc. Perhaps what I need is to concentrate on it during weekend, when I have most of the free time. Sometimes though there are a lot more work than meet the eyes. There are a lot of design decision etc that I have to make, which all takes time and efforts, unfortunately.
