Week 14 Dev Log (10/04/2023– 17/04/2023)


Overview Of This Week

This week I started my technical essay and decided to put all of my effort into it which means that the plan of making the multi action mapping rebind possible would have to be postponed.

Tech Essay

After research the types of topics to write about, I decided that 3D physics intrigued me the most. The specific topic within 3D physics would be talking about the fall damage in video games using a real life application of physics as a basis for the arguments. This is where I had to research things such as the height of death for falling as well as when injuries tend to start. I found an important discovery which stated that the deceleration from a fall is what kills a person. This meant that I would be using Torricelli’s law to find velocity incurred on a person when they land on the ground.

I also made a plan of my essay structure to be able to gain a grasp of how I would approach the 2000 word limit. After all the preparations were completed, I started a mock introduction to guide the points that I would present within the essay.

Extra Things I Have Learnt Or Problems I Have Solved This Week

  • Whilst finding a way to implement my sources into my word document I researched and found how to use the built in references function within word. This is where I made a bibliography made by word which would automatically do certain things such as putting my sources in it and sorting them in alphabetical order.

Plans For Next Week

I am feeling more comfortable with the essay which means that I will try to implement the multi action mapping rebind for next week as well as completing my essay.
