my questions are about procedural world generation at runtime and how to load infinite set of levels

You can go huge with world comp.

frozen shuttle Apr 26, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

kinda like 7 days but when you hit the edge of the map you get loaded into a new world gen

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

I think phy's plugin can do infinite gen too

frozen shuttle Apr 26, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

and deletes the old and you never get to go back

#

but take what you have with you

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

That's not hard. Use level streaming or just generate a new map and move back to origin.

#

The primary thing is to generate the map.

frozen shuttle Apr 26, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

me and a buddy get bored and wanted to make something that never ends

#

the only way it works in my head is you delete the old and make it a final decsion

#

in game

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

If you're only dealing with a finite section of a world at a time and getting rid of anything not in use as you've laid it out then it's not too difficult.

frozen shuttle Apr 26, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

any fans of 7 days ?

#

thanks for hearing me out

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

I played it in it's very very very early days but not since.

#

The main thing is to focus on the map generation. Then decide if you want to use level streaming or hard loads when you change. I'd recommend hard loads for that.

#

Probably anyway.

frozen shuttle Apr 26, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

ok I will take note of the wording

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 5:52 PM

So at this point unreal has given away enough content during the free for the month combined with the always free for the past year or two, Enough to make a pretty freaking sweet game. that's my motivation at the moment. I have alllll this crap just wasting 🙃

@plucky pagoda yeah I remember the first time I used it with Slate, and thought it was contrived, but it makes sense as you can class type the list

#

from the core of Slate, I've always been impressed with it. Its a nightmare to learn, but once you do its awesome

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

When I first started using it there just wans't any good docs on it. But once I got down how to work with it I've used it as an easy solution for a lot of things working with UI and widget components.

fathom wadi Apr 26, 2020, 6:59 PM

#

indeed. I had to go through it line by line to get my head around it. Especially with instancing objects for Slate content. That was pretty confusing as I thought it would be all setup. But it makes complete sense to do it like that for memory management.

@fathom wadi Yeah, I'm looking back at the code I setup for updating list items for a sessions list menu and it took a little bit to figure out why the craziness there actually works.

Got an offer to make a prototype for something I don't believe is worth the money and effort. Im not sure if I should take it and get some easy cash working on a project destined to fail, or to advise the people that the project is destined to fail.

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 9:15 PM

I'd consider taking the money and doing the work. Maybe raise some concerns if I felt like it. It's there job to worry about the other stuff.

#

I can't figure this one out.

I wrote an email to give my concerns about the project. Im always going to take the fair option over money. The fair option was never called the root of all evil.

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 9:23 PM

#

I've got a list view. I manually set the current item and call scroll into view.

#

But when it selects the very first item in the list that's not in view it doesn't scroll. If I scroll up from item 0 to the last item it scrolls fine.

#

I've tried padding them to see if maybe it's an invisible edge in view or something.

fathom wadi Apr 26, 2020, 9:29 PM

#

would be an issue I've read about before. I can't give advice for it because its something that just worked for me, but I recall the issue when figuring things out myself.

@plucky pagoda UI Nav was so broken early on. I had to write an entire focus manager class just to handle widget interactions for gamepads and HOTAS. At one point I even had a really bad VR UMG navigation setup that forced the mouse cursor to the centre of the screen so you could look around a menu to navigate it. But after complaining to Nick Darnell more than I should have, a lot was fixed and made all my old code deprecated. Which is a good thing. So when people these days say the UI nav is hard work, I chuckle 😄

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

Yeah, I wrote something similar (no VR though) when I first started with UE. I'm cleaning it up now and using it for my menus. The default stuff gets wonky when combining keyboard, mouse, gamepad and switching back forth from them.

#

I want a really good drag and drop menu system that I can just through into any project.

#

and I'm sure a lot of why it's easier to clean this up now is the improvements that have been made to UMG over the last 2.5+ years.

#

but some of it's having a larger knowledge base on my part too.

#

📎 unknown.png

#

Not my graphics though.

fathom wadi Apr 26, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

Thats what I did early on. Made a self-contained dynamic menu system that worked within a single widget. Then after a while I hated it. I much prefer the modular approach now. Even if it triggers me with loads of w_files in my content folder

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

I'm using interfaces and an default widget that has stubs for input.

#

The controller just has to call the interface and have a reference to whatever menu is current.

fathom wadi Apr 26, 2020, 11:05 PM

#

yep I'd go with interfaces these days too. I made a menu for a friend and he ended up putting chain casts inside of it. So I used that opportunity to get into interfacing everything

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 11:06 PM

#

Then if another menu want's to add a panel or something it just adds it to the array. Last widget added gets input.

plucky pagoda Apr 26, 2020, 11:10 PM

It's a little high in price for the size. 1TB is usually about $90 to 100

Definitly going to go for multiple m2 slots or whatever it is at the time when I buy the next MB

stiff crystal Apr 26, 2020, 11:16 PM

2TB is problematic in a way that one would need TR or some other with enough PCIe lanes to mount extra m2 adapters at if you want nvme all the way

signal citrus Apr 26, 2020, 11:16 PM

I got my mp600s for much lower than current retail months ago https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TN1MNJ4 seems like anything 2tb and gen4 is gonna cost this much right now

fathom wadi Apr 26, 2020, 11:17 PM

#

I have an m2 slot and I cant use it. 1 because my GPU uses some of the lanes, and 2. the card is so huge, I can't get anything underneath it and the m2 is right underneath it

Creating a library in case corporations decide to make this content disappear from the internet or hide it behind some unreasonable pay wall.

For example Disney removing everything from any streaming service other than their own.

I have every Disney Animated Feature film saved back in a library just in case someone who is studying animation needs it someday, or if I want to share something from 1954 with my students.

@north torrent i do agree with you but i see that as a need we have created which i hate because it is also a huge requirement for people here and makes many things like job hunting tough (i know i searched for a year for a job here with barely ever having internet and now like 4 months later i dont have a job anymore cause of covid 19) it also forces people to have to go certain routes they dont want to just to get basic things done, in south africa the unemployment rate is 30% and most people get jobs because of people they are friends with and the such (because it saves smaller businesses a lot of time and money instead of doing a recruitment process) which leads to people like me that are heavily introverted to struggle to get jobs or access to things that share a similar approach

I just find it interesting that you can be in the to 5% of the world's wealth and have things at your disposal that most of humans alive or throughout history have never had.

speaking of judo, I have to make a VR prototype of some kind and Im at a bit of a loss as what to do with it. Obviously with Judo you need full body control so full body tracking would be ideal, but its already niche. So I have to cherry pick what you could get away with training in VR. Which isn't much of the 80+ moves of Judo

north torrent Apr 27, 2020, 2:49 PM

So the VR prototype has to be judo?

fathom wadi Apr 27, 2020, 2:53 PM

yeah. A company I follow that makes judo videos posted an April Fools about a VR judo game and I said I could make what was in the video (essentially grip fighting). And they got in touch about making an app. I've been talking to them for the past month about getting something going. They are interested but I have my doubts about viability. It's a niche market within a niche market and has an entry cost of VR prices (Index is probably going to be required). I've given them all the info I can about what I think, and I said I could make a prototype in a couple of weeks or so. Just waiting to hear back on if they want to go ahead. But they were interested in a prototype

I am having a hell of a time trying to figure out this ghost in my machine here... if anyone is able to help me, I'd greatly appreciate it

#

It seems that a variable value in a parent class (which has no references to anything, I'm not using that variable yet) is automatically being used for all 3 scale values in any child class I derive from it. If I try and manually change the scale on the child instance in the world view, it automatically gets forced back (all 3 of them) to the value for this variable from the parent class! I have no idea why.

#

Anyone experienced anything like that before?

plucky pagoda Apr 27, 2020, 8:01 PM

#

You can set things to absolute scale by clicking the little box to the left of the scale values in the details pane.

#

But otherwise it's relative to parent.

#

You can also use different nodes to set it as relative or absolute/world

People in Ohio are butchering their own animals? People that used to just buy meat from the grocery store?

plucky pagoda Apr 27, 2020, 8:57 PM

#

Not many, but a few already did and more people are. There's a lot of farms in Ohio. You can buy a hog or cow and split it with someone. They take it to the butcher you tell them how you want it cut and they call you when it's ready for pick up. You can get produce delivered too, some farms do weekly deliveries.

I bet it's pretty damn tasty when it's butchered that day.

I remember hearing a quote from Jane Goodall saying something along the lines of "You can't call yourself an animal lover unless you're a vegetarian.

its just part of life on earth. Animals eat other animals. They will do it in horrendous ways, just like some factories. At least some ethical meat farmers and producers exist. There is hardly an animal that you could say was an ethical animal murderer.

halcyon lake Apr 27, 2020, 9:09 PM

It's pretty much the only reason why people are averse to eating dogs and cats. They're too cute. Otherwise, we'd probably say they just taste like chicken, whatever...

Cats would probably be gross though cuz they're carnivores

Although, so are fish... 🤔 and fish are delicious

Its just a regional thing that. We keep pets so it makes sense that we wouldn't eat tho because of an empathy towards them. There are places that would eat a cat like it was nothing

#

you know I hate fishing. I think its cruel. Especially when they throw them back. I mean, imagine walking down the street, and someone puts a giant hook through your mouth and pulls you into a place you can't breathe, then yanks it out and throw you back. You would be one confused fish.

it might have been. Im under a lot of stress atm and broke out in hives so my mind isn't working right

Hello

halcyon lake Apr 28, 2020, 7:04 PM

#

I had hives once. Mild case though. Itchy. I've seen bad cases, though, looks shitty.

#

It's brought on by stress. Take a break @fathom wadi !

#

Hello, carlitos

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 7:06 PM

#

I've been itching for almost 3 years now. I get some weeks off but sure as shit, it starts up again.

#

I went to a dermatologist but I want a second opinion as he barely looked at me and just sent me for sun shower therapy.

#

I just joined and was thinking if Unreal can be used to do something like Xcom? I want to try making a 3d game for PC

rich quiver Apr 28, 2020, 7:09 PM

#

yes

#

both xcom games are made in ue4

#

the new ones

pure bramble Apr 28, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

oh, is it? the chimera squad? its very buggy that is why I want to make one

halcyon lake Apr 28, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

@fathom wadi what the hell is sun shower therapy

pure bramble Apr 28, 2020, 7:12 PM

#

@fathom wadi you know what helped me - food intolerance test. It controlled everything even my flatulence.

#

and migranes

rich quiver Apr 28, 2020, 7:12 PM

#

xcom 2 is made in UE4.0
i have no idea in what version is made chimera squad

#

Gears Tactics is also unreal

pure bramble Apr 28, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

@rich quiver thanks. Im so annoyed so many things are missing when toggling equipment even things you can not equip by default. It seems I may be on the wrong path. Do you suppose those bugs are because of the game engine or the difficulty in using the game engine contributes to that?

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

@pure bramble I went to them presuming it was an allergy of some kind. They never even tested me. They laid it all to blame on my thyroid. I take thyroxine religiously though so its unlikely to be that.

#

@halcyon lake you stand in a machine that blasts you with UV rays for increasing amounts of time.

pure bramble Apr 28, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

@fathom wadi Which one did you try? I tried the 200 food group from Cambridge Nutritional Sciences - not related to Analytica in anyway.

#

xcom 2 is UE 3

#

basically UDK

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

@pure bramble I just went to my GP and harassed him for almost 2 years until he finally referred me to a dermatologist. I did my sun shower therapy and it blew up immediately, but then calmed down. I had a good month but then it started coming back bit by bit, until I am at the point my legs look like a slave's back I've scratched them to death so much. But its all over. Strange thing is, it will always start on my foot with an itch, then it starts moving up my legs, to the rest of my body from there. I tried diet control and have given up almost every food I used to eat and now Im pretty much eating nothing but potatoes + some meat of some kind.

pure bramble Apr 28, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

@fathom wadi maybe you should try more exotic food like bats. or maybe there is a chemical that you use at home that is causing it?

#

@fluid bloom Thanks for the info. 🙂

#

@quiet narwhal I checked it out might play it

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 7:50 PM

#

@pure bramble I use no soaps of any kind and even go as far as fluoride free toothpaste. Im genuinely convinced its some kind of allergy tho.

pure bramble Apr 28, 2020, 7:51 PM

#

@fathom wadi What makes you think that tho? Is it something that is a timed response to something? Does it happen at a particular time of day?

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 7:53 PM

#

Just from what I have read really plus like I say, I dont use any chemicals, I dropped maybe 95% of my diet and I can't think of it being anything else. The way it flares up is brutal too. I had hives the size of my thumbnail today

#

also it happens in patches. I get maybe 3-5 in a patch

#

my wife uses non-biological detergents too as I used to get a reaction from biological soaps

pure bramble Apr 28, 2020, 7:59 PM

#

Interesting @fathom wadi Are you getting enough sleep?

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

@pure bramble not good sleep. night terrors, sweats etc. I used to medicate for it but I stopped that

pure bramble Apr 28, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

@fathom wadi I knew it. Most people I know with unidentified sicknesses and manifestations have a lack of sleep, consistently. I dont know why, also I am not a doctor. FYI. But It does solve most of my issues if i get a week of good 10 hours sleep consistently. The lockdowns helped with that

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

It might help for me, but I have 5 kids who are noisier than the Big Bang.

pure bramble Apr 28, 2020, 8:16 PM

#

@fathom wadi Why not have your kids deal with your kids? not a parent though. I usually put two of my problems together. they become cooperative after that

#

5 is a lot

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 8:17 PM

#

yeah. I dropped into the relationship with a lass who had two kids and we had 3 together.

#

Have to post this... made me chuckle.

Take-Two know consider a Epic a competitor

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 8:44 PM

Epic aren't competitors to anyone though. They are partners to everyone. Gamer and developer alike.

Take-Two’s Private Division welcomes competition from Epic Games

Private Division has established itself as a publisher working between the indie and blockbusters space, and now it must compete with Epic.

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 8:46 PM

#

No competition unless Private Division is going to cut devs in for 50% of profits. Which I think is highly unlikely unless they have more money than sense 😉

halcyon lake Apr 28, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

@fathom wadi that sounds like you'd be trading hives for skin cancer

rich quiver Apr 28, 2020, 8:48 PM

#

Private Division took epic money know they have to compete on the publishing side

plucky pagoda Apr 28, 2020, 8:50 PM

#

Probably to cut down on people grabbing a million copies on multiple accounts.

rich quiver Apr 28, 2020, 8:51 PM

#

some people does have 3 accounts

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 8:51 PM

@halcyon lake it's non-ionizing radiation dude. In short bursts it has no effect in creating malignant tumours at all. I mean, I did the science first before I went in.

halcyon lake Apr 28, 2020, 8:58 PM

#

hehe good good

#

it just sounded kinda scary

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 9:00 PM

#

I never go out in the sun so it worried me that my skin wouldn't take it. But you are only in there for 30 seconds at first, increasing 10 seconds each visit until you are able to do 90 seconds.

#

it did burn a little at first too. You can smell yourself cooking

#

the worst thing for me with it, was I had to travel for an hour each way to stand in the thing for around a minute. I was working at the time too so I had to work double late to get things done

soft night Apr 28, 2020, 9:08 PM

@fathom wadi you know what tpo is?

rotund tundra Apr 28, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

need to get myself something I can vent my anger and frustration out, while programming

#

autogenerated documentation should be illegal

#

gives people the impression, 'yeah we have docs'.. while they don't

alpine fern Apr 28, 2020, 10:19 PM

#

auto documentation is completely pointless, just look at the code..

rotund tundra Apr 28, 2020, 10:19 PM

#

i'd rather have 404 page

alpine fern Apr 28, 2020, 10:19 PM

#

if you have docs at all they should provide extra info br_omegga

rotund tundra Apr 28, 2020, 10:21 PM

#

the other way around would be fine

#

write the docs then autogenerate code from it

alpine fern Apr 28, 2020, 10:22 PM

#

ah yes

#

"function should do xyz"

#

magically generate code

@zinc matrix it varies but Ive been as high as 75 before now. I know people who have had way higher though.

zinc matrix Apr 28, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

@fathom wadi and people with that need medication?

late night Apr 28, 2020, 10:50 PM

autogenerated docs are fine

#

as long as there is a mechanism to flag pages that need more human input

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 10:52 PM

#

@zinc matrix Yes I take levothyroxine to regulate it. Otherwise I start getting rather sick. Start picking up every cold, virus etc

zinc matrix Apr 28, 2020, 10:52 PM

#

@fathom wadi i never get sick

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

me neither really but then I regulate my thyroid. Before I was aware of it though, I would have no energy, would get sick seasonally and so on. I've seen people have it much worse than I though. My mother had an issue with hers and it nearly killed her.

zinc matrix Apr 28, 2020, 10:56 PM

#

see. i dont have any such symptoms

#

no obvious typical symptoms i think

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

its not really a symptomatic thing you associate. Its something that is rather silent until you get tested and find out.

zinc matrix Apr 28, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

i got tested and didnt find out anything

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 10:59 PM

#

well consider yourself lucky if you dont need it. This is medication for life. And its one of those that takes time to work, so if you miss a week here or there, you reset.

#

but over time if you dont take it, your rating goes up and up until you are practically an aids patient by any other title.

zinc matrix Apr 28, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

the only symptoms i have is thin hair, and almost no progress in gym, oh and dry skin

#

but this could be anything

fathom wadi Apr 28, 2020, 11:01 PM

#

yeah thats some things that got me. I was always underweight, had intense itching on my scalp where my hair went thin, and eventually I got a test because my father suffered from it too

zinc matrix Apr 28, 2020, 11:01 PM

my tsh is between 3.5 and 4.5
