Well I had an interesting time today implementing my Colonize doOrder. What can I say other than that I learned a minor lesson in “10% of the work takes 90% of the time.” I honestly expected implementing Colonize to take less than a day, but I ended up wrapping up today with a Colonize order [...]

As my title suggest things start moving VERY quickly today. I’d finally gotten through with little things like OrderParameters and the like yesterday, and today I started on the orders themselves, more specifically their doTurn() methods.

Well today wasn’t exactly what I expected. I had high hopes to go hard and build the frame for my turns and orders but I mainly ran into little brick walls. It wasn’t that I broke anything, I just ran into a bunch of little questions that I needed answered before I could go on. [...]
