Actually, correction to my correction: they can contribute to long-term depression. They are not causal factors.

Noted, ta ๐Ÿ™‚

@zinc matrix what i use to do sometimes is to print the data to console with the print string node, and just watch the console

however, depending on the datatype this is not always useful

verbal junco

I even have one on top of adblock plus that allows me to skip in video commercials

celest musk

but that tooltip thing is really annoying by times

probably the node loses focus while scrolling in the graph, and so the tooltip vanishes

When you are developing a game, you need to write debug massage and restart unreal frequently. Such repeated operations are at least thousands of times.

yea, i need a massage quite often

Even I can not defend Rider in debugging array values

you can maybe write your own editor utility widget :>

if you don't want to use a plugin

I don't even know if they have substepping like on ue4's physx implementation

fathom wadi
#

not sure myself. going to find out tho

stiff crystal
#

there's supposedly fixed timestepping? but basically what people doing custom physics would need to know is how they can inject their own stuff at individual physics steps

#

how we did that on UE4's physx was a big hack

#

ue4 is designed so that physics update always happens on tick and if you substep it, the engine will just try to split the forces between substeps for you

#

which is totally not what you'd want for any physics focused game

fathom wadi
#

oh I thought it only did it on the last substep during a physics tick

#

im a noob tho with physics

stiff crystal
#

there should be pinned message from me on #legacy-physics here that explains how the stepping works atm on UE4

#

it's not like tutorial, just list of things to consider

we're seeing quite the combos

timber viper

This was one quite unexpected

verbal junco
fathom wadi
#

to be fair, im sat in an armchair asking about physics, so technically I'm lounging :p

verbal junco
stiff crystal
#

if you don't need custom forces for each physics step, then you can just use the stock setup I guess

verbal junco
#

I suppose I expected it to need a more elaborate setup

#

but also I do nothing with physics

stiff crystal
#

but if you do custom vehicle physics, stock setup is going to be problematic at low framerates as you'll also get lower physics update rate

Maaaaaaaan. Kinda disillusioned with the Potterverse lately, but this is what I've wanted since I was 15: a Harry Potter game where you aren't Harry Potter.

BTW is it just me or those games nowadays use the kind of UI where you control a cursor with the thumbstick?

Ugh, I'm against those kind of UIs.

#

I prefer the "old" menus where you navigate it with D-pad, much easier to control and better for speed menuing with gamepad.

#

It's just that I seen those type of UIs in many western blockbuster games lately, I don't know what kind of trend is that, nor what game started it all

#

Is D-pad navigation getting more difficult to program these days, somehow? Or was it another reason to do the left thumbstick as cursor?

quasi mantle

#

It's probably easier in the sense that once you have made mouse cursor controls, it's not a far cry from having similar thumbstick controls.

you gotta to dig into titles to play non-violent and non-competitive video-games nowadays

I still prefer violent non-competitive games.

That is if fantasy violence counts as well.

#

it would feel so niceeee

#

but i would not play because violence after all

#

if i can not go into the next season on Sims 1 GBA because i refuse to buy a fishing rod and fish on a boat with it

#

my next title will be Sims: Urbz which is for GBA too and a upgraded version as far i analyzed

#

or crazy taxi

#

with a gameplay of not crashing into anything, because societal welfare

#

and distribute fliers of my club, which i bought from a police-detective

#

but oh! the chunks of the game are so small... navigating with my scooter feels so clunk

#

and even with a good D-pad, movement there is really outdated (they based straight in-game movement with D-pad diagonal press)

#

maybe i will send an email to Maxis

#

and feedback theirs mini-game of grass mower

#

which i am level 3 but there is usually no room to dodge flowers

#

and they cost like more than -30 or -50 bucks each time

Im thinking I might be able to add some drifting to this vehicle plugin, I might make a friction multiplier based on accel/decel data so it can be tweaked up to feel like dirt or tarmac.

#

main thing is distribution of weight and power, 2wd vs awd

#

brake bias might be useful too but dont want to complexify it too much, RPM off the crank to the awd diff ratio multiplied by gear ratio ๐Ÿ˜›

#

why doesnt my car go fast... its because you didnt set the injector size to over 1000cc and put E85 in it

# pearl elk oh right the center of mass vs the drift angle

probably? ... it is been a while i do not play racing games that has drift. i played some asseto corsa but it was too much for my head with a controller; but one recent one is Need for Speed Heat maybe? felt so artificial by looking a release gameplay and the car just entering in drif momentum sideways and player having a unrealistically control over it in that direction-immutable state

#

idk how your aesthetics are heading into

i freaking love my new job!!

#

it is an absurd playing racing games that resemble reality as vibration and g-forces are a vital part of perception

#

but when they coast high-poly models at 45 degrees or more without making vehicle loose speed in a realistic scenario, i can not go any further

#

but i am picky at my stands

#

that is why i play The Sims 1 GBA in 2022

#

and i love it

deep copper
#

that's awesome

zinc matrix
#

principally because the first one was with dialogues in text form rather than happy buttons to express emotions

#

take a sip at the game i found

#

it is a the bottom of my Edge tab

#

maybe i will play next to The Sims or crazy taxi

#

i forgot that i was in burnout mode and i think the last days on Blender made me return to a very zero state mostly since yesterday

#

Manny has a limit on boosting your intelligence to find answers with algorithmics

#

you can not play flip the coin till i get the result that i want

#

it is cheating

#

the very first moment you snap the feeling, is the way to roll it

deep copper
#

yeah but still, it's worth a try

zinc matrix
#

and only the answer number zero is the truth

#

at least that is the way i interpret my doubts into stuff like

#

rolldice 2d6

#

i even installed linux to do it as there are no software for Windows shell

deep copper
#

that's hardcore

#

why did you want it so much?

zinc matrix
#

rolldice app?

deep copper
#

yes

zinc matrix
#

because it is among the best software one can have?

#

and documentation on getting random number with Windows Shell is unfriendly

#

rolldice is a timeless software

deep copper
#

what did you need a random number for though?

zinc matrix
#

people roll dice since the beginning of the time

#

they just do not knew it was rolling

deep copper
#

that's deep, yes

zinc matrix

alphabet,
A 1 N 14
B 2 O 15

H 8 U 21
I 9 V 22
J 10 W 23
K 11 X 24
L 12 Y 25
M 13 Z 26

#

that is how i decide some names for stuff

#

like, rolldice 1d26

#

1 dice, 26 faces

#

7

#

so it is G letter

#

then if i want a number afterwards, rolldice 1d9

deep copper
#

ah that's nice

zinc matrix
#

!8ball it is not?

turbid spindleBOT
#

@zinc matrix, :8ball: Ask again later.

still, rolldice is less clunky

i am hungry at 1am

soon i will be waking up later and later till my day starts at 5pm

#

is almost inevitable exist at night time

#

the silence is soooo nice

#

idk you but i can feel electricity in the air at morning time

deep copper
deep copper
#

go sleep

zinc matrix
#

yeah but i am hungry

deep copper
#

eat me

#

jk

zinc matrix
#

and i eated poorly yesterday, as i used the time to cycle

#

as it was not rainning

#

and then i went sleep directly because i did not want to fuck up my routine

#

it is so hard to get back at the normal track

deep copper
#

you either cycle or eat, that's harsh

zinc matrix
#

i have to drink coffee and stay awake more than 24 hours

#

and i think i prefer to starve under the mantle with Satan than being waken for more than 24 hours

deep copper
#

why are you up more than 24 hours?!?

zinc matrix
#

feels so overwhelm

zinc matrix
#

but now they stopped the home office thang

#

feels so natural go back to the night time lutriq

#

cycle at the city at unusual hours

#

i am lucky that even having 2 million people, nightime is basically dead after 3am here

deep copper
#

that's, scary in a way

zinc matrix
#

i love being alone at cities

#

principally the ones which are historical

#

you take like, monday or any other odd day at night time and go out explore

#

thinking you are don quijote or something

deep copper
#

you don't feel scared ? alone in the dark

zinc matrix
#

as i was a courier and worked a lot at nightime

#

i know some places and hours to not be here

#

and i was used to walk between parties places sometimes and i did memorized where i should not be more

#

once i even got a cigarette of a thief

#

because i am the type which walks with money from taking the morning bus and no smartphone

#

i consume a lot of free stuff over the city

#

but the city is not dark

#

and afterall the worst is like, lost my bicycle

#

they will not kill me or anything

deep copper
#

you live quite a "thug" life yourself it seems

zinc matrix
#

but i am the type which cycles because of my health

#

and eat vegetables at the end of the day

#

and play the sims

#

pretty south american thug hm?

#

wanna hang out sweetie

#

???

deep copper
#

<3 i do

zinc matrix
#

no i am just training for tinder

deep copper
zinc matrix
#

hehe

#

once i started to grow mushrooms to sell to people on streets while i was cycle couriering

#

it is not illegal selling them for research here

#

but it is illegal separating the hallucinogenic substance and selling it alone

#

but my parents interviewed

#

so i donate my grow

#

the guy was a junkie and did no thrived unfortunately

#

not a proper thug junkie

deep copper
zinc matrix
#

but more a thug thug junkie

deep copper
zinc matrix
#

well, first it was because i was unsatisfied with street people selling drugs

#

started with me trying to buy weed and people treating me as "another bourgeoise trying to get the good stuff"

#

and i am picky when buying stuff at street

#

and i know they sell some variations of LSD-25

deep copper
#

you speak as if it's easy to find drugs on street ๐Ÿค”

zinc matrix
#

that are very chemically similar but at the end of the day, it is way dirtier because it is cheaper and easier to produce and usually, because its potency, lead unexperienced people to bad experiences

zinc matrix
#

i mean, you know the places

zinc matrix
#

body onset, effects per dosage

#

harder to digest as a trip

deep copper
zinc matrix
#

anyway, so i went the way of growing mushrooms and selling at lower price of how much they charge for cheap synthetic copies of LSD-25

#

in the worst case, they would steal from me (which i would not carry my whole production at once)

#

or they would buy from me

#

and sell it for a higher price

#

OR

#

they would sympathize and i would be happy selling drugs in spare time of bicycle courier idle time

#

which i used to read a lot

#

but making money felt greater

#

and i would even distribute for first timers a flier of good practices

#

(that later i discovered could lead me into problems if police stopped me)

deep copper
#

flier of good practices?

zinc matrix
#

but without the informative fliers, any type of policemen could do nothing to me because Psilocybe cubensis port

zinc matrix
#

do not do it too much

#

accept that if you are having a bad time, it is better to flow with it

#

and that you will not get crazy forever but just for 8 hours or something

#

stuff like that

#

teaching how set and setting matter a lot for this type of drug

deep copper
#

what's psilocybe cubensis port?

zinc matrix
#

the basic of a psychonaut

zinc matrix
#

let me find the translation

deep copper
#

basics*

zinc matrix
#

carry, bear, convey, or bring

#

actually port has this meaning according to Artha

deep copper
#

hnm i see isee

zinc matrix
#

word-net*

deep copper
#

you did some good stuff it seems, :D

#

having 7 of you would surely feel amazing

zinc matrix
#

it was just intention

#

my parents stopped me when i was at fruitification time

#

all was done, the cakes were colonized

#

and i had to throw all on the garden

deep copper
#

so no more mushrooms?

zinc matrix
#

actually i threw them on the garden with the hope some wold raise

deep copper
#

ah

zinc matrix
#

no mushrooms ๐Ÿ˜

#

i bought some later from the internet and decided to this game specifically

#

that was the trip who teach me that i should not create any violent content

#

it has been 2 years since

#

or 3

#

i do not look at the calendar much

deep copper
#

that's quite neat

#

i understand your reasoning now, because voilent games are kind of like drugs ๐Ÿค”

zinc matrix
#

well, it was the only rational though i could build when tripping

#

and as i tend to perceive things thinking, that resonated a lot

#

after some months, i decided to backup my claim and went through a lot of scientific research

deep copper
#

research?!

zinc matrix
#

and there is a lot of evidence on why violent media or competitive is bad

#

in various field

#

like well being, cooperation behaviour, violent desensitization ETC.

deep copper
#

i wonder if that's how the whole "video games make children voilent" came up

zinc matrix
#

nothing more important of the ballpark of restricting kids of getting its GTA hand on guns to prevent mass shootings

#

but i do believe, at least as far data goes, that violent media is no good

#

and all i can do is games

#

not enter in politics and resolve others spheres way more significant towards violence or other mental health problems created by bad living conditions or anything

#

it is just personal, in my range of reach

#

all i can do

deep copper
#

and that's all what matters, doing what you can do

#

i do think action games are becoming a bit too mainstream now

#

but again, i am not a dev or a gamer

zinc matrix
#

video-games are new media

#

there are not even 100 years old more or less

#

and gaming as we know, post Atari time

#

it is from the 70s, 80s

deep copper
#

yeah it's rather recent

zinc matrix
#

so there is a lot of room to experimentation

deep copper
#

there is certainly unexplored territory

zinc matrix
#

yeah, and with VR?

deep copper
#

yup, new stuff keeps popping up actually

zinc matrix
#

maybe that is why Epic is raising the free license royalty for VR devs.

#

i never placed one in my head

deep copper
#

i have never used one either

zinc matrix
#

the time i had opportunity i did not want to because i thought it should be used in a special occasion

#

like no way you are removing my hymen of VR on a store with a violent game

deep copper
#

haha

#

right right

#

there are VR based yt vids as well, 360 degree ones

#

maybe try those?

zinc matrix
#

nah

#

imagine opening blender on it first time ever?

#

FUN + WORKING YEAH

#

or your own game prototype?

#

there is so much to do and so little time

deep copper
#

vr blender, I don't know how stable that is yet, but i did hear it's growing

zinc matrix
#

idk how does it go too

deep copper
#

and eat

#

what are you going to eat?

zinc matrix
#

i was thinking in rice

#

and some tomatoes and carrots

#

and chia seeds because i am addicted to them

#

they are the ones as my fat intake this last days

deep copper
#

that sounds fairly healthy

zinc matrix
#

white rice is not so much

#

but it is a blink of an eye to do

#

but i think i will watch another GDC and sleep

#

hehe

zinc matrix
#

tomorrow i woke with a vegan lion hungry and i go figure out what to do

#

maybe start bean cooking at 6 am

deep copper
zinc matrix
#

and bananas

#

today i eat more than 4 probably

zinc matrix
deep copper
deep copper

Banana is the sweetie of nature, packaged in biological plastic

#

even digestible by guinea-pigs

#

and at my though mountaineering days, i used to eat bananas without removing their peel

#

there is a lot of fiber and nutrients there

#

anyway

#

good-bye
