got brick textures working and by brick textures i mean colored bricks like roads. i'm not sure if i'll get stuff like prints working nor am i convinced its a necessary feature. the current plan is to optimize everything then try working on shadows
also someone asked (i forget who) a while ago about the red dots at the upper left and bottom right of the screen. those are bricks i placed down to calculate the bounds for the minimap image. one of my plans is to make it so the image is automatically cropped to those bounds, but that involves doing some math that i haven't gotten around to doing yet.
