Stress test with 100,000 calls
I have decided to scrap my scripting language in favor for a library for DM itself.

Thinking about scripting languages, I haven't worked on one for BYOND in a long time. In fact, I had a partially working one for a later release of SByIo Library (available on GitHub).
Using DM directly is definitely faster than trying to build your own scripting language in it. However, I have one lurking around like I said. It's called SPanimScript. The purpose of it was to create animated text using BYOND 500 features through a special scripting language. Feel free to look at it: https://github.com/Bandock/SByIoLibrary/ Manual is not available yet to the public. | |

That's actually rather nice, Kozuma. I know you're still working on it, but try to kill off or make use of all that gray empty space.

Just woke up to continue progress :)

 Playing around with shadow geometry and softened shadow edges. I'm not actually computing accurate shapes of the umbra and penumbra here though.   With a few different light sources of different colors. Before, the shadows were merely approximate shapes made from a single piece. Now these shadows are made up of 3 pieces for a more accurate approximate shape. To correctly and accurately show the penumbra, umbra, and antumbra, shadows would need to be made up of 12 different pieces. I don't think it's feasible :[ | |

Beautiful. Have you thought about releasing this lighting as a library? I'd pay for it! You're not the first to make that offer, and I doubt you'll be the last =P It does look amazing. As a library + a tutorial on normal mapping for BYOND, we could see a YUGE upgrade in lighting. I know I'd use it in nearly all future projects. | |
I don't think I can make a library that tops what DarkCampainger has already released. I still have no idea how he gets shadows to cast on mobs and walls.

His uses a lot of cpu

But it's not profitable, it'd only get one buy at most and then be distributed. Is there any self-benefit from helping anyone here? I really don't think there is. | |

Much cleaner, Kozuma3. Good stuff.

Another great idea. Thanks.
