Creation Crate #2 popped up yesterday, only 2.5 weeks after the last one did, and it was a nice fun little build+code event.

Boxing Day's Events
Blog
27th December 2017
Note : Boxing day is what we in the UK call the day after Xmas Day.
I'm not sure why it's called that! Wiki! The day went rather uneventfully. A lazy morning, waking up rather late, but then using most of the morning to prepare for what was to come. Views 43, Upvotes 9

Xmas Day's Events
Blog
26th December 2017
A standard Xmas in the house of Jay.
The morning was spent unwrapping the insane amount of sweets that I'd been gifted. Since folk know not to buy me Chocolate (since it gives me migraines) and they're desperately trying not to resort to buying Xmas Socks, they all seem to end up buying me a curious variety of sweets. Each one trying desperately to find the most unique sweet they can, in a bid to outdo each other. Views 72, Upvotes 9

Festive Mini-Blog
Blog
25th December 2017
Today is a day without my usual daily blog, mostly because I've been lazy, watching a lot of Festive TV, and am currently sat on the couch watching my Sister and her friend having a game of Scrabble, whilst typing this small bit of none-blog.
Later on, I'll probably need to hook up the SNES Classic for a short while, but given that my NES Classic hasn't ever been hooked up, that's not too likely to happen! Anyhoo, Merry Xmas everyone, and if you don't do that sort of thing, t... Views 35, Upvotes 6

After a good number of days working on this, I've finally got it up to a mostly functional state!
For now, you navigate the controller using "default" buttons, so hopefully that works well enough to allow for that. I've still not started work on the thumbsticks, yet, but the code does at least allow for analogue controls, so it shouldn't be too hard to add. *sigh* Such a struggle to get to this point.

Redefine : Part One
Blog
12th December 2017
It's taken quite a while to get up to this point, but I now have the engine half-doing a "Which button is pressed" function.
I can push a keyboard button, or tap a button on a connected controller, and the engine says "This button!" There's a slight issue, whereby if a button is held, it takes control. For example, if you're playing on the keyboard, but your gamepad's lying on the floor, and the thumbstick is prodded to the side, then no matter what button you try to hit, i... Views 36, Upvotes 9

I started the rewrite of the controller code, last night.
Digging deep, I realised I could probably reuse quite a lot of the old code, since the engine already grabs Joystick data each frame, as well as using a bunch of good-old fashioned numbers to do a lot of the legwork. Views 40, Upvotes 12
