Orion Engine : 3D Game Engine

THEIMPORTANT

We should get all optimisations set first too.

Right now the process is low-level:

Source code -> Tokenize -> Bytecode -> Run

Later it will be high-level:

Source code -> Lexer (tokenize but more steps) -> Parser -> AST -> Constant Folding -> Constant propagation -> Bytecode -> Run

This is why I decided to make a low-level version first. High-level is very hard, especially AST and Constant Folding/Propagation.

Okay. Anyway, know the problem to the sorting? It’s 100% not a normal sorting issue (triangle average). It would cause bugs, but a very minimal amount of them. Triangles overlapping from the back should be impossible, but it’s possible from the side.

alr, you should try debugging.

I am positive that it is faster but can't convince anyone

I don’t really care all that much.

You should do some research; in your example, you have to check and return a value from a variable twice. In the other one you have to do it once. What's so hard to understand? I have optimised many engines, and this is a very basic optimisation.

Should I just take on all the 3D by myself? I feel bad, because I’m essentially taking on 70% of everything.
