Devlog 6

Okay so I wanted to ship after last time but then i decided to fix a few more errors and make my project more easily testable, so here’s what i did:

Changes

• made the input better so you can inpu for example constants without writing x0 behind them
• fixed a problem with x=0, where sympy.solveset would give me infinite zeros, I made so that it gives none because it was the solution that made the most sense in keeping everything as simple as possible
• made thg curve indicator graph also work for lines with no curvature and lines with no turning points
• I made the whole thing downloadable and testable over pipx
• made the website design a little better
  -made a better Readme and commented my code

That is pretty much it, thanks for reading, if anybody wants to try the project, the Readme says how it’s done, thank you for reading

Devlog 5

final Devlog I think, after patching the last little bugs and writing a better Readme, I had a little fight with github pages because it sometimes wouldn’t show my videos, luckily I got it to work.

So my Demo is now a page with the rendered videos on it and that should hopefully work for everyone. The pictures are what the demo should look like.

This has been fun and I’m amazed how fast you can create cool stuff with manim, thanks to Grant Sanderson from 3blue1brown.

Right, I’ll get myself some rest and think about the next manim project I will do, thanks for reading and have a nice one.

Devlog 4

Hello again, today I did a lot of bugfixing and little tweaks to make the animation better

Bugfixes

• fixed a bug where some functions where only partially shown on screen
• solved some Transform Problems by sorting the zero points

Other Stuff

• Made functions shown on screen more appealing by removing useless +es for example
• added boxes behind the text so you can read it if the functions go through there
• made user Input more resistant against false Inputs

And I finally got Manim Sideview working correctly, before that I always had to render everything and then show it with sideview, Yay!!!

Gotta sleep now, it’s 1am, thanks for reading and Good night

Devlog 3

Sooo after the main functionalities were finished I did everyones favourite job:
Bugfixing yay!!!
Here is what I did today and what I still have to do

Bugfixes

• fixed a bug where curves werent shown because they were above/below the max y values of the coordinates
• fixed some division by zero stuff
• made custom boundaries for every function because some werent rendering because they had to render too many values outside of the screen
• “fixed” a weird type bug in sympy.solveset by just putting a try except there
• made some turning points with the same values on both sides better

Animations

• Added the second derivative to the turning points Animation
• Fit zeros better

To Do

• Make the Input of derivatives simple more flexible, user error proof
• Fix Problems with float Inputs
• Make Good Readme

I will go eat lunch now, thanks for reading, have a nice day!!!

Devlog 2

After way tooo much work today I finished all the animations after fighting with data types for a while and I added the simple mode where it just gives you the finished picture without animations.

Thank you for reading, have a nice night, I gotta sleep now

Devlog 1

I wanted to start creating Animations with manim for a
while and this was a logical place to start because we just recently learned derivatives in school

Here’s what i have so far

-You can input normal polynomial expressions in the source code
-They are plotted along with their first and second derivative
-The program sows the zero points of all those functions
-It then shows the Maxima/Minima and the Turning Points

I also added some fn little tweaks like the coordinate system fitting itself to whatever function you input.

What I want to do next:
-Make the Animations better
-Maybe add other types of functions

That’s about it, thanks for reading, have a nice day

Devlog 4

I have now started to work on the gameplay and not
just on the tools for playing:
-I added an enemy spawner, where they spawn, get weapons and then run to attack the base
-A player spawner where you can spawn your minions
-And a weapon generator to give your people weapons to defend your base

Also i made a tool to create areas which i will give different functionalities but right now they just keep
the persons in so they have to fight at that spot

Next I’ll be working on giving the game some structure so it becomes more fun

Have a nice day

Devlog 3

I made some walls around the base to protect and did a little code restructuring
Also the walls crumble when the enemys attack them,
took me a while to figure out shape keys in blender and that they don’t like booleans but it works now
Have a nice day, Bye

Devlog 2

okay so, i worked on the looks today, I made a character model in blender, rigged it and made a simple walk cycle
Then i updated my project to godot 4.7 to use inverse kinematics
I played around with them a bit and now i have a character who can walk and hit others with the new custom made sword
Thats about it for today, have a nice one

Devlog 1

This is a game created in Godot.
I havent really decided what the final product should be, but here is what i have done so far
I have implemented minions walking around randomly
They can also go to designated spots using a self made pathfinding and follow the mouse
So far there are red and blue minions, when they meet they follow and damage each other
Right now the objective of the game is to steer the blue guys to defend your base from the red guys
I also implemented some fun stuff like inspecting the players and seeing their health and kills
That’s about all I’ve done so far
Thank you for reading, have a nice day
