Synthetic fuel is also an option but it's still extremely expensive to make for now
Basically it's carbon neutral since it uses the CO2 from the atmosphere, so anything it produces burning up is what it was made from in the first place

pearl elk
Your AI has gastro?

I'm considering to scratch it. Too complex for something which won't use much of it - like multiplayer and bunch of team using custom editors. Also, gotta workaround some limitations like, attribs being only floats.
Or the weird approach of splitting attribs on items.
pearl elk
Whats wrong with floats?
cursive crypt
I want more than floats. Like containers of stuff.
Gameplay effects are only upon floats + some workarounds for anything than floats.
Just the whole stuff is more designed about big, multiplayer games.

For me its the lack of structure, I get its meant to be flexible but Im not sure how they avoid design bugs since it wont really error or warn you at all

same, I'm planning on putting my inventory system into a plugin. But started wondering if I should switch it over to data assets instead of data tables

Everyone knows the cons & pros, but everyone wonders.
Something went wrong before that.
fleet tangle
Always DAs. you know you want to!
cursive crypt
Nah, DT are more convenient and in one place.
tulip orbit
I started watching the GDC22 talk about data handling to refresh my mind on pros/cons
fleet tangle
You can use a DA as a DT!
But, yes, they are more convenient for their import capabilities at least.
pearl elk
Thats the issue with DT is you check out a chunk of the DB not just the modified entries
cursive crypt
You can easily work with DTs. Review, edit, tune.
tulip orbit
I used DAs on one project, and I remember liking a lot of the things that come with it, but I cant remember the issues I had
cursive crypt
On other hand, you can't do some asset management stuff. And they are not so flexible (DTs).
fleet tangle
The asset management stuff is quite important, I feel.
Again depends what you're using them for. If they aren't storing assets refs, it doesn't matter
tulip orbit
DTs are simple, but become a pain when you get a larger table. And I've never had any luck with importing/exporting
my inventory struct is basically just icon, name, description, mesh, class ref
cursive crypt
Sounds good for DT
tulip orbit
when the object is placed on the ground, or being held in players hand
cursive crypt
hmm
tulip orbit
I did it for objects that dont have an actual class, like materials or ingredients
and if its dropped as a pickup, it shouldnt be the full class, in my case atleast
a container BP? either a pickup BP, or a "HeldMesh" BP that gets passed the item name, then spawns the mesh
in the one project, I spawn and attach a HeldItemBP to my character, then when I 'equip' something that only has mesh data, I tell the HeldItemBP to equip(Itemname), and it pops it up. When I switch items, I unequip and the mesh hides
I've never gotten far enough into dev, or looked into if having the helditemBP always spawned and attached is better performance over spawning something new when it needs. convenient tho
mine ended up bigger than they probably needed to be

zinc matrix
Since the physics of sound absorption/transmission is not fully understood even for pure silica aerogel, the situation for the composites is even more dramatic. Because of the wide variety of composites (polymers, textiles, renders), each type of composite will require its own detailed experimental and theoretical investigations. Unfortunately, the effect of silica aerogel on the acoustic properties of the final products is typically investigated as a side-thought, and only a few studies focus on this matter. In contrast to neat silica aerogel, aerogel-fiber blankets typically display smoother dependencies of the sound absorption coefficient on frequency, with broad bell-shaped curves reminiscent of the aerogel-free nonwovens [102, 133, 135].
During their investigations, the researchers also discovered that conventional acoustic modeling doesnโt accurately capture the behavior of aerogels. "They are better sound absorbers than we would expect based on the models," Sharma said. Figuring out why is another area they are currently exploring.
i read a book about materials from a chemist and he dedicated an entire chapter to gel structures ๐ค

I just went to fiverrโs game development section and took a snapshot
GTAV still seems quite popular yeah, kind of too bad that cd project red ditched cyberpunkโs multiplayer version. It could easily become one of the most popular games if they made it into an open world online game like gta.
Just imagine playing cyberpunk online with real police players chasing you down and if you get arrested you spend like up to an hour stuck inside a jail lol would make it so much fun and risky to do crime in that game.
But no instead we get a buggy game that was rushed and full of false promises.
Whaaaat no way??
Iโm still hopeful that gta6 will raise the bar though
Itโs probably just cyberpunk with rdm
Meh
If thereโs no punishment for crime or death then itโs just another death match type game.
Thatโs what Iโm hoping for some sort of rp like cyberpunk type game would be so much fun

what are you guys using to take notes with? Google Docs is fine for now, but I definitely wouldn't mind some of the more advanced web graphs and such. I've looked at Obsidian, but I honestly don't thing I'd want to pay every month just to have it sync when Docs already does that for free

shame we cant do the localisation precompiler, then it doesnt matter which spelling you use because it'll know the possible variants. I doubt there's an instance where someone would need both Armor and Armour as separate variable names

Not really, note how in most games space is bigger than actual one. This is due gameplay reasons - camera and player navigation barely can handle the real-life tightness.
