***DISCLAIMER***: _These notes are from the defunct k8 project which_
_precedes SquirrelJME. The notes for SquirrelJME start on 2016/02/26!_
_The k8 project was effectively a Java SE 8 operating system and as such_
_all of the notes are in the context of that scope. That project is no_
_longer my goal as SquirrelJME is the spiritual successor to it._

I should probably switch to a center based view offset, that way it is easy to
center on objects as I can just set the view to their coordinates.

Got a base for unit selection going (packets are made and sent), but I see
that when I send a bunch of packets at once they are in reverse order so that
needs fixing.

Using JSON for some of the stuff simplifies things when it will come to
building the kernel. One thing I do know that using Java 8 and its features
has vastly simplified things. Although through many a rewrite I have learned
much more on how to make things efficient and easy to maintain.

The kernel will be strictly compact1.

This new code in KernelBuilder is much much cleaner than the stuff that was in
FarBuilder.
