May 1, 2026May 2026 (Phobos repo) focused on improving gameplay fidelity and runtime stability in core systems. Delivered two primary work streams: (1) Jumpjet movement and visual accuracy improvements to enhance player feel and shadow rendering fidelity; (2) pointer safety and stability enhancements for AttachEffectClass and ShieldClass to reduce crash risk and improve reliability during dynamic lifecycles. These changes leverage a centralized primary-facing angle calculation (GetPrimaryRadian) for consistent visuals and aligned behavior across related components. Impact: Smoother jumpjet dynamics, more reliable rendering alignment, reduced crash surface due to pointer invalidation, and improved cross-class consistency. These changes lay groundwork for safer invocations and easier future maintenance. Technologies/skills demonstrated include: C++ engine patterns, pointer safety and invalidation safeguards, centralized angle calculations for facing logic, and robust handling of invoker ownership scenarios under dynamic object lifecycles.

Highlights include per-techno unit promotion animations, enhanced weapon/targeting behavior, dynamic effect durations, and targeted performance optimizations, alongside fixes to serialization, documentation cleanup, and Chronoshift-related animation preservation. The work delivers clear business value through more predictable gameplay, faster iteration cycles, and reduced risk of regressions.

Mar 1, 2025March 2025 (Phobos repo) – Concise monthly deliverables focused on feature delivery, stability, and visual correctness across core gameplay systems. Key features delivered include configurable firepower multiplier behavior for interceptors and critical hits, enabling more precise balance tuning and player strategy. Buge fixes addressed several reliability and correctness gaps across disguises, animation ownership, and engine stability. Overall, these changes improve gameplay predictability, reduce crash surfaces, and enhance visual fidelity. Key features delivered: - Firepower Multiplier Configuration Options for Interceptors and Warheads: Adds new configuration options to control whether firepower multipliers apply to interceptor damage and to critical hit damage. Major bugs fixed: - Disguise retention under EMP and rotation: Reverts a previous change so deactivated units retain their disguise under EMP or rotated beyond certain angles, correcting disguise behavior. - Animation ownership initialization consistency: Refactors animation ownership setting logic to ensure proper initialization and consistency, fixing potential ownership initialization issues during unit creation. - Engine stability and crash fixes: Addresses critical crashes and stability issues including electric bolt owner invalidation and jumpjet voxel shadow drawing crashes, with accompanying docs. - Visual and logical fixes for disguises, bullets, and shields: Fixes ally-check logic for disguises, correct house color display for disguises, bullet color inheritance for certain houses, and shield tint visibility rules. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Stabilized core game loop and unit lifecycle, reducing crash surface and ensuring consistent disguises and ownership initialization. - Improved gameplay balance with configurable firepower multipliers and more predictable combat outcomes. - Enhanced visual fidelity and UI consistency across disguises, bullets, and shield rendering. - Documentation updates accompany stability fixes to aid future maintenance and onboarding. Technologies/Skills demonstrated: - C++ refactoring and feature flag configuration patterns, with traceable commits. - Defensive coding and edge-case handling for unit lifecycle, disguises, and combat rules. - Crash diagnosis and remediation, including cross-system effects (electric bolts, jumpjet shadows). - Documentation and presence of change logs to support maintainability and onboarding.
