| alt#9586 | exelotl Nice to see Natu Development in full force now | 15:34:57 |
| alt#9586 | Not really interested in making a GBA game rn, but congrats either way | 15:35:14 |
 exelotl#9183 | Thanks! <3 | 15:44:18 |
| exelotl#9183 | I've been getting around to doing a lot of the things I wanted to before the goodboy KS+demo launch but simply didn't have time | 15:44:53 |

| Generic#5192 | I saw your issue | 19:27:26 |
| Generic#5192 | are you trying to use bit sized types? | 19:28:05 |
| Generic#5192 | this might not be a 100% fit | 19:29:04 |
| Generic#5192 | but I'm using this for modelling hw registers in my emulator: https://gist.github.com/RSDuck/40df3efdb63f520862a1ea469d3d158c | 19:29:43 |
| exelotl#9183 | ohhh haha I actually have a very similar macro to yours | 19:30:54 |
| exelotl#9183 | I was looking to delete it if I could xD | 19:31:08 |
| Generic#5192 | ah well | 19:31:26 |
| Generic#5192 | https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/427 | 19:34:21 |
| Generic#5192 | a typedef macro would be a cool solution to this | 19:34:35 |
| exelotl#9183 | oh yeah, I've often wished I could just do type Foo = myMacro() lol | 20:02:34 |

| exelotl#9183 | I basically have 2 bitfield macros and was hoping to get rid of the one on the left lol | 20:03:47 |
| exelotl#9183 | the one on the right is essential because it lets me reuse the same bits for different purposes depending on context | 20:04:39 |
| exelotl#9183 | the alternative would be to have dozens of different types (1 extra type per entity in the game) and always cast to the correct one 😅 | 20:06:32 |
| Generic#5192 | why didn't you use an enum + a set for the one on the left? | 20:06:39 |
| exelotl#9183 | cause I wasn't very familiar with them at the time lol | 20:07:08 |
| Generic#5192 | I see | 20:09:23 |
| Generic#5192 | seperating the accesor definition from the type definition itself is pretty smart | 20:09:49 |
| Generic#5192 | it makes the type far more modular | 20:10:01 |
| Generic#5192 | with my macro everything has to defined at once, which blows the macro up considerably | 20:11:28 |
