January 2026

2 Commits • 1 Features

Jan 1, 2026

January 2026: Focused on delivering drafting UX improvements and map-generation display refinements for AsyncTI4/TI4_map_generator_bot. Key work centered on the Draft System Enhancements and Unit Display Improvements, including preset packages and slices, refined draft setup (player seating and draft choices), and improved unit type handling with sorting and unit emojis. The TF draft system now supports preset slices to streamline drafting. A TF nucleus placement issue was fixed, complemented by UI niceties to improve flow. These changes reduce drafting time, minimize placement errors, and enhance visual clarity, delivering tangible business value in planning speed, collaboration, and user satisfaction. Technologies and skills demonstrated include feature development, UI/UX refinements, commit-driven workflow, and data presentation enhancements.
