- 2013/08/04 After a lot of experiments and a lot of surfing on the net in search for inspiration (and code snippets :)), the Qixar is moving in a nice way. As always, it needs a lot of optimization but at least its a starting point :)

- 2013/07/16 Implemented the polygon discovery routine in the game.

- 2013/07/15 Added the routine that discovers the two polygons:
- player moved a->b->c->d (light blue dots)
- the routine discovered the purple polygon and the blue polygon
- 2013/07/15 Added the routine that checks if the Qixar (yellow circle) is in the polygon passed.
- this is needed because i will fill the polygon without the Qixar
- in this case i will pass the blue polygon, the routine returns the presence of the Qixar, i will fill the purple polygon.
- 2013/07/10 Fill routine is now fully implemented in the game. It needs some tuning but i like the speed achieved in TP3 :)

- 2013/07/09 Fill routine successfully converted :) And it seems reasonably fast...
- 2013/07/08 Experimental fill routine developed on pc.
Next steps: convert to pascal, integrate in the actual source and try to remember how the whole thing works :)
