Javier worked on the UCM-FDI-DISIA/Carom repository, focusing on improving the stability and correctness of ball-scoring transitions in a C++ game environment. He addressed a critical bug in the state machine logic by ensuring that all balls had fully stopped before the game transitioned to the scoring state, which reduced edge-case failures and improved gameplay consistency. Javier also refactored component retrieval in GameScene.h to a more generic and robust form, enhancing the maintainability of the codebase. His work leveraged component-based architecture and physics-driven state progression, laying a solid foundation for future feature development and smoother user experiences.

February 2025 — UCM-FDI-DISIA/Carom: Stability and correctness improvement for ball-scoring transitions. Key highlights: - Bug fix: Ball State Transition Correctness in ScoringState: Ensured all balls have stopped before transitioning to scoring state; updated GameScene.h component retrieval to a more generic form to improve robustness of state progression based on ball physics. Commit: 26c445381e5bcea49fe3d1c511eec67fbccb1e8b. - Impact: Increases reliability of scoring, reduces edge-case failures, and improves gameplay consistency. Prepares codebase for future features. - Technologies/skills: C++, GameScene.h, state-machine logic, physics-driven state progression, code refactoring for robustness. Business value: Higher player trust, fewer scoring anomalies, smoother user experience, and faster onboarding for future feature work.
