Training Queue

I looked at the training queue EVE has and decided that duplicating it would be the best way to go. I spent just about the whole day yesterday working on it and am surprised how fast it was. Building a solid foundation with file handling and the Core Data model is starting to pay off.

What's new to me this time around is making a custom view. I've never had to make one before but found that working with NSBezierPath is actually very easy. Now I'm at the point where I just have to draw the scale.

As I'm adding more and more stuff, I am somewhat concerned about how much more time it's adding to the launch time of the application. When I first started this this app, I was amazed how fast everything loaded. Almost instantaneous. Now I've seen it go as high as 10 seconds. Still not a lot but that's only with 2 characters and with several more features to go.
