HELLO ,
its been quite productive, so i have a lot to talk about this devlog, I just worked on the flight planner again…

Firstly i removed the hardcoded cells with (x,y) coordinates and replaced them with vectors through which i can change values, it took me a lot of time to learn vectors and then figure out how to make them into like a grid type format.

Then i figured i should test out the program so i added a user input to change one value of a cell, this is because I wanted to make this fixed wing UAV a lost person finder. So in theory, ill replace each value for one of these:

0-not searched cell
1-searched cell
2-person found
3-obstacle detected
4-no fly zone

for the next part ill probably incorporate a while loop, so that i can change the value of a cell until i enter an invalid cell number, then the program ends, I know this sounds like I’m wasting time by not directly coding a flight planner but I’m still in the process of learning C++ so like im lowk bad at this rn, but im pretty consistent so im confident ill be better in the future.😭😭😭

Tysm for reading through all my yapping, :) .

Time spent-1.5hrs

I started working on the software for the actual flight planner for the UAV, I started learning with ChatGPT but instead of just taking the actual code from it, im learning from ChatGPT and then applying the same concepts into the planner as of now, ChatGPT also helps in debugging.

For the software, the area its going to be covering will be stored in a grid format.(its going to be GPS later). I’ve made a grid for now.
