Bugs, bugs everywhere.

I was planning on just abstracting away some parts of functions in other functions for this devlog, so that i could complete the window expansion and movement logic. Since i had spent barely half an hour doing that i thought this devlog would have been too short, so, i also decided to start making movement and resizing animations; but little did i know that i was, all of me, deceived.

As i was thinking at yesterday’s code, i found some inconsistencies in my logic, i ended up also fixing a bunch of bugs that completely escaped me while writing the code, and i ended up needing to fix those…

First

The first bug i found regarded the movement and expansion of windows: what should a window do if in the way it wants to move there are two windows, the first that can move out of the way and the other can’t? Up until now, the window that had to move (or expand) would not have performed the action because of the 2nd window, but the first one would have moved regardless. I fixed it so that if any of the obstructing windows cannot move, none will.

Second

While fixing the first bug, i stumbled upon a second one; in my tiredness from late-night coding, i had somehow managed to forget to update the available cells when a window expands… Yeah that was dumb TuT.

Third

Now again, while fixing the second bug, i found a third! This one was perhaps even dumber, because i had forgotten to update the cells a new window occupies when it expands. Again, quite dumb, but now it works at least…
