Until engine architecture can clearly be separated from the game, i.e.
notion of entity storage belonging to game and concept of entity belonging
to engine, worlds/scenes belonging to game or engine- the project will
only refer to Dengine.
Audio can be played with 1 call, audio_beginVorbisStream which
encapsulates the initialisation of the renderer and release on finish.
OpenAL is quoted to have a limitation of around 32 sources. Audio
renderers hence acquire a source slot on playback and immediately release
on finish. This ensures that sources are held optimally and minimises the
possibility of saturating the available sources.
Renderers hold an index to the source list, which the index reveals the
source ID for their use.
Mobs battle in real-time with the hero when in range. Start encapsulating
logic into entityStateSwitch() to organise entity properties changing
between different states.
Introduce basic concept of memory management in MemoryArena. Begin passing
around a memory object to track memory usage and eventually delegate
memory allocations through. Remove the old memory tracker in the debug
object and incorporate into engine primarily.
Add a debug console for logging information and events to the screen in
a console-like fashion. Debug is now initialised after the game, this is
so that you can pass the game's memory arena and font file to the debug
services. Debug services now properly initialise debug element positions
from this information and not through the update routine.
Mixing and matching V2 int and float types in the code creates too much
necessary work when an integer implementation has to interact with float
implementation. Let V2i create the cast for us and use floats for all
vector operations since they are mostly mathematic.
