That moment when ...
I thought it could be fun if we share particular moments that ordinary folk (non-game devs) can't relate to. Moments that made you jump with joy, or weep with agony. Stuff like when your AI did something that impressed even you, or when some things just do not go as planned!
This is what I just had. I was about to make a component for my entities that handles melee actions (punching, etc). I was under the impression that I had delayed it for a very long time (with spaghetti code), but finally I needed it as I'm making new entity types that should also have melee capabilities. I made a new file, and named it "MeleeComponent", which is pretty much my standard convention for these types of things, and boop, error: "A class called MeleeComponent already exists". What?! I go to check it, and there it is, already implemented (I just couldn't remember it). Score!
