The status of update 1.5
Hey everyone, two posts in quick succession!
First off, thank you all for the patience and the kindness you've shown! I try my best, but I've not had my best week, and truthfully I don't know if it is right to share it, but alas. As I posted in the group messaging here on Patreon, yesterday 2 years ago grandpa passed away, but an overshadowing moment is that the parent of one of the students that I mentor (basically first contact for the kid at school) passed away, which feels very weird to say the least. So just a bit of a heavy week for me.
I have not made as much progress as I like to because of that, which I allowed myself to happen. Needed a few extra hours/days to recharge and keep enjoyment real and there. Surprisingly, spending too many hours on something isn't fun anymore, so keeping myself sharp on that.
Right with that out of the way, today I felt that fire again and was really excited to get started again. I am happy to report I am making good progress with the V2 Crowd system. That is my main priority at this point! If I have to give it a percentage I would say it's about 65-70% of where I want it to be, with flexibility for expansions for wheelchair and lesser abled users too. Currently a lot goes into the crowd performance which is being a bigger ball ache than a kick into them.
The big kick to the balls is that I need to revisit EVERY stadium for that to work. The stadiums therefore can be less than half as large in terms of data, but it is a right pain. I am also taking the time to do the individual lighting for that. That takes time, and therefore the release will be pushed back by at least one week.
I am sorry that happened! I really am! But I want 1.5 to be polished, and not looking like Homer Simpson:
Thanks for everyone's patience, and hopefully in the coming week I'll be able to smile a bit more again!
Much love,
Bassy

Sorry to hear my man and I think I can say this for everyone: take it easy and get yourself back. There's no rush. You are an absolute diamond for doimg this!
You could tell me it will take 2 months and I'm still not going anywhere. Hell, at this point I'm going to stay on the Patreon membership just waiting for you to start doing standup about this adventure. Measure twice, cut once. Take your time buddy.
