Player.h:
-Modified the ranking system. Rank requirements for combat experience have now been changed to a CB level system where each battle gives exp. After a certain amount of exp your combat level will increase. At certain levels, in combination of previous requirements, you will be given an option at Alliance space stations to receive a promotion. You must go to an Alliance station in order to get this promotion once the requirements are met.
-Added the following variables:
pCBELevel
pCBExp
tNCBLevel
Player.cpp:
-Fixed some function definitions that had incorrect connections to the Player class.
-Added the rest of the rank system functions and set functions for player variables:
setName
setRank
setSArmor
setSHull
setSMArmor
setSMHull
setSShield
setSMShield
setSName
setSSTLevel
cLUp
pCBLUp
-Added functions for player combat level gaining, noted above. Levels are calculated via the following equation*:
To Next Level = (Current Level • 1250) • 1000 • 1000 • Current Level / (2 / ((1000 • (Current Level • 1250)) / 2))

Planet:
-Split the class into two separate entities:
Planet Processing will handle all global planet processes, such as placing a destroyed planet into the destroyed planets array. Planet will be a pointer based class that will function a lot like the hostile class except that planets will be stored in an array upon deletion during an event. This array will be updated each “turn” depending on various conditions if the player colonized said planet.
-Added several new variables to the planet class, all having to do with the planets habitability*:
pGrav -gravity
pRad -yearly radiation
pOxy –atmosphere oxygen levels
pNit –atmosphere nitrogen levels
pCarb –atmosphere carbon levels
pHel –atmosphere helium levels
pALevel –strength of atmosphere and planetary coverage
pLMass –available landmass
pWMass –percentage of planetary space that is ocean
pBDivers –planetary biological diversity
Each of these variables can be affected by certain factors, such as population growth, industrialization, or pollution. Teraforming will move these values closer to 62nd century earth’s conditions.
-Added second Defense attribute to the class for shield based defense systems.
PlanetProc:
-Added the following functions:
isDest –is the planet destroyed
isOwned –is the planet already owned by the player
fPlanets –search for planets within scan range (currently static at 50 LY)
pPlanets –print out list of found planets
setDest –set planet as destroyed
setPOwned –set planet as player owned
-Added the following variables:
sPlanets –array for scanned planets*
oPlanets –array for player owned planets
*Click here for further explanation
MenuProc:
-Added navigation menus 1 and 2. Nav menu two will work with above fPlanets/pPlanets functions to print out found planets for the player to travel to. Similar system to be setup for stations.
Main:
-Added game class and planet processing references.
-Created start game menu operations and started on the game loop.
Game:
-Added new function sGame (start game) to the class.

Game:
-Added the code for the data decryption and encryption to the implementation file. Currently only the attributes listed in the “Player setting functions change log entry” are being used in these functions.
Later on weapon and planet names will be added to these functions.
-Fixed a few types and comments in the implementation file.

Wednesday, July 13, 2011
New Classes:
-Added a new class; Game. This class will handle any wide scope game related functions such as saving and loading and data encryption/decryption. There may be other functions moved to here later on.
-Created a new class called menuProc (menu Processing) which will handle all of the menu option inputs. It will process the player choices and call the related functions. This is done in an attempt
to move ALL player related choices out of the ‘main’ game execution file and reduce the choices throughout the rest of the project files and consolidate it all into one class eventually.
-Added Story class to this build. It only has one function at the moment for the opening story.
File Renames:
-Previously called game.cpp file has been renamed to main.cpp. Started the basic coding here including class references and starting function calls for creating the game start menu and calling the story.
Renamed in lieu of Game class, would have had a name conflict with that classes implementation file (game.cpp).
Player:
-Removed Loading and Saving, Decrypting and Encrypting functions from Player.h. These functions relate more to game data then just the player class. They have been moved to the Game class.
Game:
-Added code for save function and data encryption and decryption. Function will create save folder structure if it does not exist then create the .nfo file. This does not include destroyed planet data at
this time. Loading function not yet coded.
ItemSystem:
-Finished coding Ship database and removed old code for ship settings. Replaced 2,425 lines of code with 43 lines of code.

Version 0.3a Change Log:
Planet bombing:
-Bomb weight has now been implemented.
While bombing weight will now be calculated via formula to produce a collateral damage value.
-You can now bomb multiple times in a row AFTER the defenses have been destroyed.
Maximum is 8 times and if the planet's population reaches 0 it should break the while loop. Have not tested that particular part.
-Planet Pillaging has been fixed.
The resource random was set to 1,1000 instead of 100.
-During the bombing runs all text will be run on Sleep(2000) timers.
Main Game:
-At the start of the game, you will now be asked to input your name.
-Story has now been implemented.
-All text runs on timers, how long depends on the text amount.
-Decided to leave the Save/Load functions in. See more info on the change to cloning in the Station section.
-Have changed the encounter formula again, you will encounter fewer ships in this version.
Talirath/Tech Merchant:
-Added in both the Talirath and Tech merchant, you will be able to encounter them while traveling to stations.
-Tech merchant ship battle is still a little weird, trying to get the correct effect with it.
-If your ship is NOT a tech level 4 ship (i have added 1 tech 4 ship just for testing this function) you will not be able to use the TM right now. Later on I will change this so that there are different TM level ships.
-Once you choose to upgrade the Artimis Theta (the previously mentioned t4 ship) you will be able to distribute and damage and range points yourself to any weapons you have equipped.
-At this time Tech Merc and Talirath DO NOT have their custom ships.
-Talirath will only fight you if your pirate rank is 1 and higher.
Player:
-Ranking system now implemented
after gaining 5 rank points (by destroying planets and ships) your rank will increase, this can be done up to 9 times.
Ranks:
Private
Private First Class
Sub-Lieutenant
Lieutenant
Lieutenant Commander
Commander
Captain
Commodore
Admiral
Station:
-Clone System
This has now been implemented. You can buy a single use clone or buy a multi use clone. When you buy the multi use, you will be asked for the number of uses. This is then multiplied by the price of
a single use clone. How they work is when your ship is destroyed, your consciousness is transported tot he nearest station and put into a clone. During this process your game is saved.
-New Weapons:
I have added 26 new Laser Weapons.
-New Ships:
I have added in 5 new ships in the Destroyer class.
Version 0.2 Alpha changes:
-Menus are now cleaned up a bit more.
-You can now save and load your game.
The save .nfo files can be found in your C:\ directory. There should be 2 of them, one for player data and a second for the destroyed planet names array. Right now the array is writing each element
individually in the save function till I can get the for statement to work correctly.
-the 'Oders' typo has been fixed ;P
-please note that laser banks 4 - 8 and turrets 4 - 8 will be given garbage values as I have not set them up in the player creation function yet.
-the weirdness in the Station menu has been fixed. (if you chose to buy a ship, once done it would send you to the weapons menu.).
-all menus (or almost all) have been conformed to the new layout
at the top of each menu is a cout << endl; and a system("CLS"); at the end of each non-battle menu to clear the command window.
-I have now added in some more planets.
In total there are now 28 planets instead of 9.
-No new ships or weapons.
-Planets now have access to more planetary defenses and can now obtain a random tech level.
-Pillage and salvage functions have been rewritten for easier access to resources.
-Fixed the issue with enemy ships not being able to attack you.
They can now do both laser and missile damage. This was due to an old reinitialization of some setup variables that were not needed and were left in by mistake.
