spent the entire day hacking away at a solution for fading between scenes and using a loading bar. feeling pretty helpless. created a bunch of problems thinking i know how to code and spent more time trying ideas out than actually getting things done.

on the bright side, i know a ton of ways this WILL NOT work. i think the easy/smart answer is with Unity’s built in state machine system, as that is how i have it currently half implemented… as is the scenes fade in from black, i just have to find a way to get out.

i suppose the day wasn’t a total loss, but it sure kinda feels that way. decided i may have come to a point where i simply need to return to research.
