So, I initially planned on creating my project purely with Three.JS, and had a GUI in the works. But then I remembered I am a campfire organizer, so its probably best I try to get better at using GameMaker. So then I switched to that and used Lapse to track it.

1. I added sprites and tiles
2. I added moving trains! (yay)
3. I was able to have characters move with the train
4. I am currently working on a stopwatch
   The purpose of the project is to understand relative motion better by actually visualizing it from the perspective of people on the train and an observer who will later be moving as well

Beginning to implement MySQL database into the project. Since I am very new, I spent some time understanding it from Fireship to integrate into containing data for students’ reported university acceptances and their grades. So, rather than a calculator only, I want to make it more useful with tangible data from real students (to hopefully make people less scared of their grades not being in the 1 percentile). I am fetching this data from a publicly available google spreadsheet but for some reason they blocked you from cloning the spreadsheet, but I found a workaround which is even better since its real-time updates! In order to connect MySQL with Google Sheet I am running an app script which will submit data to Google Cloud SQL (I think that works?)

Essentially, the table contains values from each column and then I will just need to do a bit importing these values into the SQL of the app script which I can then hopefully, easily fetch this data using python for data analysis and AI analysis.

I worked on creating a basic flask web app. The design will be notepad inspired-ish as shown!!
