The official forums will be under kbve.com/forum but I have some things that need to get resolved before I can really push it out there. We will need to link up the marketplace as well, hmm, that might have to be another commit or so in the morning.
Unity Rareicon Pipeline
Section titled “Unity Rareicon Pipeline”-
12:33PM
We had the older pipeline hooked up with azure and it did build the webgl of rareicon. Now we are going to swap that out and have rareicon get built using either our own self hosted runners or keep with github actions. I am not too sure how long it will take to have it get built, but it will be interesting to see.
Modrinth MC
Section titled “Modrinth MC”-
12:46PM
The current issue with the minecraft server is that the cicd pipeline for some reason is having a tough time confirming the mrpack. This is leading to the client crashing and not updating, i.e connecting with an older client-side mod. I was really hoping this would be easy to use, but might have to switch back to curseforge instead.
Bevy Crates - Bevy Behavior
Section titled “Bevy Crates - Bevy Behavior”-
01:50PM
There are about 13 level zero crates that we need to publish, I am currently going through them, making sure that they are all good to go. Our focus will be to get most, if not all of them near production grade before the end of the week.
Holy Crate v0.2.1
Section titled “Holy Crate v0.2.1”-
02:30PM
We should update the holy proc macros to include everything we will need for the forum, but also include anything else in the future that we might need for unity. The proc macro will be our centralized location for all security related layers, then later on we can do some str and cow level tweaks, so that its easier to clean up the strings.
Garden Peppers
Section titled “Garden Peppers”-
04:28PM
The season is still a bit later that I would have liked, but I am going to plant some spicy peppers, maybe even try and get some seeds to sprout. In the future, I should setup a germination box, maybe pick one up from amazon. Actually, this might be a good reason to pickup a 3D printer, it would be dope to just print little pots for plants.
Unity Character Selection
Section titled “Unity Character Selection”-
11:15PM
Added the character selection and now I am going to flush out the UI!
CC Bills 2025
Section titled “CC Bills 2025”-
01:00PM
Before I go out to grab some quick food and goodies, I need to make sure that everything is squared for the end of the month! We want to make sure that everything is paid for and that the cash surplus is extended out further than the 15k mark.

Rewrote all of the redis functions to be lifetimes but ended up going back. Nothing is worse than rewriting your whole rust eco-system, only to have to revert it because you decided to use a crate instead of rolling your own. Each time I roll my own internal system, I remember that it might not be worth it because then I have to maintain that system! Not everyone can be the tanstack guy xD. After adding the bytes and making sure that it builds, we can handle the nested streaming within the websocket.

Updating the redis_wrapper.rs to include a bunch of additional helper functions and utility calls, eventually rewriting them in the future into a chainable object? Part of this exercise is to treat it like a set of light weights, where we keep lifting and placing it down, slowly adding more weight as we get better. The issue that I am seeing right now is that we are trying to have both the JSON and Binary within the same websocket. That connection could either return valid JSON or Binary.
The main focus will be getting the launch ready for KBVE website and application. Ugh the account page is still super buggy, but I think we can still move foward with the way it looks, at least in our initial launch phase.
About
Going to make changes to the about page, and testing some of the code generation via offline models. Honestly they are getting way better than I expected.
KILLTONY
Always a great way to start off the mondays! Another addition to the collection, the show was a solid 6/10! Some of the acts were really bad but overall, it was a solid episode, damn tony hawk lookin old.
Invoice
I am preparing the invoice management and generator, making it easier to keep track of all the records and services. This is going to be a bit tough to mix in the old code with the new code, but I think we can get somewhere decent with it by the end of May.
Pre Launch has been pushed back over and over! While it sucks to have to delay the MVP, it is great to see the backend and frontend stack evolve and become more mature. I think Astro still has a long way to go but so far I have been impressed and amazed with how fast it has grown.
Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it’s all over. — Octavia E. Butler
