@ -585,3 +585,173 @@ Whatever way it goes, here's my plan for what to do until release:
19. Sage's pull force doesn't increase with unit level
20. Cleric's healing amount doesn't increase with unit level
21. Squire and Chronomancer's buffs don't increase with unit level

# Node Refactor
As I work on this project the inevitable conclusion that I came to in regards to the codebase is that everything can be conceptually simplified if every entity becomes a Node. Before I switch to execution mode for the next month to
finish this game I should take this moment to expand on the refactor that I'll work on right after this project is done.
A node is an object that has a parent and children. Nodes can be added to other nodes and it will form a tree, or a graph, since nodes can also link back to one another arbitrarily. Every object in the game is going to be turned
into a node, which means that everything will start from a root node and be initialize/updated/drawn from there.
```lua
root = Node()
root:append(Node():tag'player')
```
Here a root node is created and a child tagged with the unique identifier `player` attached to it. This means that in the node's `children` list, the first node will be this `player` node.
Each tag should be unique so that we can refer to nodes in the graph by their names, and in this case we would refer to the child node by saying `root.player`.
Similarly, `root.player.parent` automatically is set to refer back to `root`.
This simple setup eliminates the need for different types of container objects, which right now in Anchor are `Group`, `State` and `GameObject`. All of those objects have disparate/repeated ways
of handling updates/draws, when in reality they're all doing the same thing and that similarity should be conceptually reflected at the engine level.
```lua
root:append(Node(Timer, State):tag'arena':init(arena_init):update(arena_update):on_enter(arena_on_enter))
```
The above code shows the main way of adding functionality to a node. Instead of defining new classes for different behaviors I prefer doing everything locally, which means defining the entire class exactly
where the instance is created. In this case, it means passing the expected behaviors as functions. In this case we have `init`, `update` and `on_enter` who expect functions to be defined and passed in, and
for brevity's sake I just passed in the variables `arena_init`, `arena_update` and `arena_on_enter`. In a real use case these would be functions defined here directly instead of variables holding a function.
A Node object expects `init` and `update` by default, but not `on_enter`. This is where the variables being passed in to the `Node()` call come in. The primary way of altering what functions a node expects
to be passed to it will happen through mixins, which are what are being passed to the node at first.
In this case, the `State` mixin changes the node such that it expects an `on_enter` function, which is called whenever the node's `active` variable becomes true (this variable is also controlled by the State mixin).
This is useful for both high level state changes, such as changing between levels, but also for low level ones, such as changing between animation states.
In this example we can see a real use case of how this node system ties everything conceptually together, as we get the same mixin code being used seamlessly for two completely different tasks.
Mixins always will derive from Object and be created according to how classic says they should be. I'll only change it so that name collisions are detected and the program exits. This will be the main way to build
objects and the last thing I need is random bugs because a function or variable from one mixin overwrote the other.
