for almost all of 2nd semester i worked on just the generator. i used simple shapes to model the generator in quarter 1 than i colored and added cords it quarter 2 along with some bug fixes. i used a curve to get the cord to look the right way but i had to constrain the cylinder to the curve and than the cylinder moved along the curve so i had to duplicate the cylinder so it wouldn't move with the timeline. after all of that i could make it spin so that i could get a good 360 view.
