12 years ago! Have many good memories of working on New Vegas. Learned a ton and made many good friends along the way.

There is a general perception that C/C++ is only for peak performance cases, so API can be ugly — if you wanted easy and clear, you would be using a different language. I think that is unfortunate. It is possible to make “joyful API” in C.

Planning ahead doesn't mean knowing everything up front. It means taking the time to study the problem, what you can figure out now and what you'll have to keep an eye on as things progress.
No plan survives contact with the enemy, but how do you FIND the enemy without a plan?

Somebody proposed using template meta-programming to keep several lists of data in sync.
An alarm rang in my head.
So before you implement that, please remember this 20 y.o. low-tech alternative:

IMO the two most important transformations for performant code are Array of Structs to Struct of Arrays and Loop Fusion to Loop Fission. The 1st is essential for cache perf and the 2nd breaks data dependencies and often unlocks more optimizations that were not obvious before.
