I think I've played Borderlands 2 for a total of 3 hours, maybe 4 hours - which were all last night. The rest of my time I have been spending with about a thousand timers in Trinity to try and shave CPU usage off, improve attack speed, and generally improve intelligence of other aspects of Trinity for the last 3-4 days, including line-of-sight checking for attacks without any extra CPU-hits etc... I've also been preparing Trinity for the next DemonBuddy release, as I'll be able to fully handle barricades, disable built in DB unstucker, etc. - and I want to make sure that the moment the new Demonbuddy is released, I can have a new Trinity version released so that everybody can use Trinity immediately (no I do not have any release date/expectations for anybody, sorry, but I would guess and it is nothing but a guess within the next 7 days, or if there is a new Diablo 3 patch, within a few days of the patch!).
The current state of the RELEASED Trinity is in a good enough condition that I don't feel the need to be trying to maintain 2 simultaneous codesets (one for "release", one for "the next version") - and as an individual community developer doing this in my free time (and for the past 20 days, 'free time' has really meant 90% of my waking hours) - I don't have any motivation to be maintaining two copies side-by-side.
Not that I know why I feel the need to reveal my private life - if anything I've shown an extraordinary amount of devotion of my time to releasing plugins for other people over the past three months here - so why a discussion about how I might be spending my free time playing a new game is taking place I have no idea. Shall we discuss how many hours I spend visiting the shops instead of releasing Trinity updates, or sleeping, or having a wee? Perhaps essential body functions and requirements can be discounted, so we should measure how many hours I spend entertaining myself by means other than coding - which is very, very few
(do note: I am enjoy coding - I do consider my time spend coding Trinity and my past plugins as enjoyable and a great way to spend the vast majority of my free time, especially when I can then release it to the wild and see other people appreciating and enjoying my work - so I'm not complaining about how much time of my time I spend working on plugins - I'm complaining about other people analyzing that time and making ridiculous and unfounded statements about me).
