Not if you're using a sep mask than the sprite's. Otherwise it would change with each sprite_index.

>>168382262
depends entirely on the collision masks of the sprites being used

using xscale and yscale can fuck shit up if your origin isn't perfectly centered

I've not posted a lot recently after almost a year break. For anyone who remembers, Ive started working on this area again. Its a basic connect-the-dots kind of puzzle where you have to find the correct order of these little flower things to grab, which boost your speed incrementally for a limited duration. After a while you run into similar items that bounce you into the air which you must combine with the speed boosts to traverse areas. Things get more and more complex as you progress but mainly this area is for GOFAST.
Im not too good at converting webms to retain quality and allow for much of a decent length of time

>>168382342
It really bothers me when in a font the lower case "L" and an upper case "I" look exactly the same. I think it's something that should be fixed especially when there's a lot of text.

>>168382421
>using xscale and yscale can fuck shit up if your origin isn't perfectly centered

oh, this is probably it. I was trying to figure out how to repeat it but I think I might've already fixed it by assigning every object the same box mask.

>>168382559
Welcome back

>>168382573
Mm, I just changed the font and hadn't noticed that. Haah. Alright, I'm going to see what I can do about that. It's hard finding a font like this one that has good kerning and making cap L and I different without serifs.

Might have to just roll my own.

Distance between each flower dictates which you can collect before the reset initiates. Terrain also ties into it (hills and such create miniature obstacles). Essentially there is only one correct path for each one which you must figure out. In the beginning there are visual cues such as foliage surrounding the "starting point" and Altars that light up the correct path. As time goes on I remove these cues and you must figure it out for yourself, thus increasing the difficulty and reducing the handholding.

I don't know blender but I'd suggest searching for editor options that relate generally to the type of window or UI associated with what you're having trouble with, rather than searching for solutions to a missing f-curve editor specifically.

In tutorials everyone just says "go to the F-curve editor" and the animation curves are already there.
Can't seem to find anything useful.

Blender's own documentation only explains all the things you can do with the curves. Nothing on how to make the curves actually appear.

I've tried every option and setting. Completely stumped.

The slow movement on the ground is indeed most uncomfy but kind of gives incentive to jump around, jump around, jump up jump up and get down.
I recently realized that the naturally slow movement ruins the pace (later you get upgrades to allow quick dodging in the air-similar to UT99/UT2k). I plan on adding a "fast movement mode" which you can toggle on and off. By using this you can survey the terrain much quicker. However, when in fast movement mode you will be prohibited from activating the speed boosts, which should be a good trade-off.
Actually the hang glider mechanic would probably be perfect for this...You could move faster and also have better air control to survey the area but must exit the hang glider mode in order to actually complete the speed puzzles. Thanks m8

It really only gives the illusion of scrolling - every time there's a switch, the items move forward and up/down a little bit before going back.

Due to the way the system works I don't think it's terribly important that you can read the other items. You know what each one is before the battle, and each is likely going to be different types (colors) to counter different enemies.

How do you rip off a kirby game when kirby is so unique?

>>168386251
It's okay for a man to be completely decimated and scarred, embellished with several additional chins, or blinded by a ridiculously big nose.
Defacing a woman like that is frowned upon; females' worth is defined by looks more than a male's.

>>168386512
Alternatively, women are semi-sentient props that are incapable of harboring meaningful, relatable emotions.

>>168386251
Because you have decided that women are only allowed to be pretty, and can't have any sort of blemish on their face. Maybe try to stop caring about stupid shit like that and just make your characters. Doesn't fucking matter what gender they are.

it is misleading because the code shown there is translated back from IL code meaning that some names will be lost (notable local scope variables), some functions will be converted to classes, and the formatting etc. of the code will be different

there are still problems with the code that are note resultant of the compilation/decompilation process but the image is rather unfair if viewed without understanding the context

String comparisons are part of Unity's legacy animation system API and the input API. We cannot know whether or not he is typing the string literal in each API call or is using a named constant. While he should either be using the input button system or the enum API for the key press system, since its all throw away prototype debug code there I would not nitpick it. The if/else statements for the input section are only avoidable by writing an input wrapper around Unity's input system, which depending on the stage in a project is not necessarily worth the time (certainly would not bother for debug shit).

I would rather criticize the way he is doing the animation coding, particularly since he could redo it all very quickly and in an organized fashion using mecanim.

Coding is really interesting, but tiring and it can definitely be boring if you don't find solutions to your problems quickly enough.

Also I'm struggling to work out raycasting, it feels like the tutorials out there are not clear enough for me (admitedly, I'm retarded, and I actually haven't looked hard enough for tutorials. Today's lunchtime will be all about raycasting!)

One thing I've noticed about discipline, motivation and development is that you can easily "get motivated" to do something when something is preventing you from doing it at that exact moment (e.g. your day job). You start making plans to do x, y an z for when your next block of free time comes up but then end up fucking off instead, whether it's due to being mentally or physically tired at that point, procrastination, or just the desire to do something else.
People say that the difference between motivation and discipline is that motivation strikes you like inspiration in that it can make you really want to work on something, however discipline is what will truly carry you when you don't feel like working or you're depressed because of some sort of setback.
Discipline can be learned, but it will take time. You should schedule a time, say, after work where you will dev for at least 15-30 minutes at least, whether you're making tangible progress or not. As long as you keep doing it the time will add up and not only will you start seeing progress, it will also become a habit and you can extend the time you work on it.

Well, I'm making a platformer to dip my toes into gamedev. So, I want to cast a ray down from my character so that, if the ray reads that I'm 0-distance away from the ground, then he's grounded (so he can jump).
I already have this without raycasting, but the problem is that he counts as "grounded" even if the sides of his collisionbox are touching a wall, so you can launch yourself up walls.

Does anyone have any guides on implementing serialization of in non-unity classes?

>>168392387
looks nice

>>168395242
no but you basically just need to add
[System.Serializable]
above the class or struct and then either have the members you want to serialize public or [UnityEngine.SerializeField]

>>168395242
That's cute as fuck mayne.
As for your question, can't you just add [System.Serializable] before the class declaration?

>>168392087
I thought about the scope and I don't think I will be finishing soon, though I will try to work on it anyway since I originally intended it as practice. The game itself is fairly small scope, an /agdg/-themed rhythm heaven clone, but I have never made a rhythm game so I am still figuring things out. Also I have never musiced or sprited significantly.

>>168395242
also keep in mind that if you try to serialize 2 references to the same object it will create 2 separate instances on deserialization

you cannot serialize and abstract or generic class unless you specify the child/concrete type

in Unity, what's a good way of doing a rotating object right in the player's face, like in skyrim's inventory or resident evil 7's object inspection?

>>168394703
I don't think you need raycast for that, even though it's a nice idea.

If your game is tile based, you should have other options than that. Like setting up a point at the bottom of your character and check if it's in a ground tile or not. However even if the ground is just a line defined by two points, you should be able to check with line equations if this point at the bottom of your character is on this line or on the other side.

Like you've said, with raycast you can find out how far away you are from a given point, but here, this information is meaningless. You only need to know if you are on the ground or not, the distance doesn't matter at all.

>>168395375

I just checked how I did this the last time I made a platformer
when I get a collision event, I also get a collision normal, which is just a vector that points in the same direction the player has to move to resolve the collision. since the player has to move upwards to not clip into the ground, I know the player is grounded when it's in contact with a ground tile with a normal near (0, -1). then I add a bit of delay: the player has to not touch the ground for 10 frames to not count as grounded, which gives players the space to overshoot their jumps by a bit

Old trees were better. Also for some reason when I look at the WebM I imagine a loud clock in the bgm. Going tick-tock-tick-tock on when the images alter. You can make the image altering speed up or slow down based on how adrenaline high is the scene supposed to be. I genuinely think that something good can come out of this. I like it's eerie simplicity. Keep it up.

Thanks for playing my game (Comfort of your own home), but I realised (and this is my fault for not making it obvious enough -_-') that you didn't actually get the ending.

I fixed what you talked about with the animation. Shouldn't happen again. It's also a .zip now. I didn't have any more time so I did what I thought would work.
If you could, I'd like you to play it again to get the ending, but you've already played the waiting game, so...:

You can use the "K" key to get 888 $ in the NEW VERSION, so you can skip the waiting for salary. (don't do this if you haven't played it yet. It ruins the experience)

I also made it so you can press "E" to make the money-counter disapear, if you want to take a new screenshot (of the end perhaps).

PS: here's the screenshot you asked of me. It's the highest quality you can get, because all the art is made to a 1:1 scale with the game window. Spoilered because it's pretty far into the game.
PPS: I got really giddy at you fumbling around at the beginning of you video.

I was also wondering if the "smiling neighbor" thing will lead up to anything or not, then figured that love in general is anything but comfy. It has it's comfy moments, but still.

I've re-watched my playtrough to understand what you've meant. First I wasn't sure if I'll be able to control it with the mouse or the keyboard, then I was walking around a lot to figure out which item I can interact with. Then I hoped that I'll be able to interact with the laptop if I'm just at the desk, only to realize that I have to stand behind the chair to do that. A dark idea which hit me was what if it's all a lie and the character is not comfy at all and at one point she'll hang herself at the nail if I don't make her home comfy fast, so that is the reason why I was standing at the crack on the wall, to see if there's a comment I can make her say about it. Sorry about that. I feel like a monster now. ;_;

I haven't played the demo so I'm not sure if this is already in Nier, but add a double-jump ability where the droid immediately goes under your feet in mid-air when you jump for the second time.

Well that is if you plan on adding aerial combat or larger movement. From the videos the jump looks really weak so a double jump would be meaningless.

>add a double-jump ability where the droid immediately goes under your feet in mid-air when you jump for the second time

Double jumping is a thing, though you're right about it being useless at the moment.

I'm still experimenting with the physics in UE, I want to be able to jump high, but I absolutely do not want it to feel floaty.

Aerial combat is definitely going to be a thing, I just haven't gotten around to it. I'm just getting the camera to function the way I want it to first.

This is actually my first real attempt at making a game. Never done any serious programming until a few weeks ago, and I'm still learning stuff.

Love your idea with the droid, will definitely have to do that.

Yes. Just rapidly change the windows position.

In Java you do something like this to move the window (in Windows):

HWND hwnd = User32.INSTANCE.FindWindow (null, "name of window goes here");
hwnd.getPointer();
HWND hwnd2 = new HWND();
User32.INSTANCE.SetWindowPos( hwnd, hwnd2, x, y, width, height, 0x0020 | 0x0400 );

and then jiggle the x,y values there

I'll wait for your replaying with anticipation. And anything for a fan! (Not actually anything, but you get what I'm saying)

The smiling neighbor thing is there just to make you feel safe and happy (thus comfy) in the neighborhood (and to have someone who takes your deliveries as you are always at work when they come).
I find love can be comfy, but only if the lovers aren't caring about being "good lovers" towards the other. So a worriless relationship.

Finding out you can only interact with the laptop (from behind the desk, though that's a limitation from how I made my game) was what I was going for with that beginning, so you actually did exactly what I expected one would do.
The rest of your post is darker than I expected, but feeling uncomfy was also a part of that beginning (in order to create contrast with the end).

PS: don't hang yourself on a nail. It's likely not strong enough, and if it is, you shouldn't hang yourself in the first place.

Would you mind if I create another video? I don't know if it would be helpful to you or you would rather not spoil it for others.

Sorry again for the last part. I guess the gray and empty room just felt really uncomfy and wasn't in harmony with the premise, so I guess that's what triggered it. It's a good motivation fuel to get comfy, nevertheless.

Overall, the game really hit home for some reason. Maybe because my mate really works at a law firm and wears those kinds of "I-don't-care" clothes at home while shopping online or sipping tea or coco in bed whilst reading, and always thinks about how to make our home more "comfy". The only part which didn't match with reality was the payment. When I mentioned it to her she said she wished she could earn that much a day. Sorry for the blog, just wanted to lighten up the mood.

>>168402313
I actually don't mind when a game let's me discover how it's working if the way it works is intuitive and feels natural. Am I right if I say that I have to catch a certain amount of fish before the big fish comes? Or is it randomly decided when I enter an area?

is it more efficient to use arrays or generic lists in C#? The list is just a fancy wrapper for a regular array, but does the added layer make it slower?

>>168404441
lists can grow with reallocation, that's slower

you can insert items, which will reshuffle everything, that's slower

just accessing existing items should be the same

I usually use arrays for things I know the size of, and lists if I'm not sure

>>168404428
>I have to catch a certain amount of fish
Yep. Three for the lake, four in the river/beach.

>>168404441
In 95% of cases the list or array is small enough that it won't matter. Lists and arrays both have the downside of creating garbage of you new list() often, like every frame.

>>168404532
This is something that's generated on level initiation and never changes, I'm currently planning on using lists to populate it and then ToArray() it if default arrays are faster because of one less layer of code or something

Speaking of which, if I want to make a 3d-based tile movement-based game in the future, would a 2d based tile movement game be good practice?

Would a movement system based on tilemovement transition well between 2d and 3d?

>>168404428
It's fine if you make another video. I'd love that actually!

I'm glad you were able to relate so much! (Like, that's a lot of things to relate to.) And don't worry about getting dark, that's how you felt and feelings are there to be had. Besides, I can get dark as well, so it'd be hypocritical to deny someone else that.

And the pay was that high so the player didn't have to wait like a gazillion days before they could buy everything. Just chalk that part up to it being a videogame :P

>>168405545
It depends. If your 3D-2D is viewed from the side (like the new Donkey Kong Country games), then it should transition fine. 3D with an actual 3D environment is a different thing, but if you keep it shaped like a MineCraft map, then it should also kinda work.

Hadn't even thought about from the side honestly.

What about 2d top-view to 3d isometric?

I'd expect if it's tile-based movement, it would be relatively similar since cameras would be locked in both and while 3d does add another dimension of movement, jumping and ducking would be possible in a 2d top-view as well.

But I'm nowhere near game devving, as im just learning how to code. Just a thought I had for the future.

Unreal's material system is both a blessing and a curse. After hacking and faking it sort of works now.

At least I didn't need to change 5 engine files, compile for 30 minutes, then edit 5 shader files and compile them for another 30 minutes.

As in, the US government taxes your 70% before it sends it over to your country, where your country taxes it as well.

Did you know that most of the Russian spoken in James Bond movies is just gibberish? The western world, which the movie was aimed at, largely didn't. People don't care about accuracy.

>>168408478
Because it's not relevant to them and researching is a lot of work

1 dollar is not 1 euro. Hidden taxes etc...

Was this meant for me?

>>168408680
I think it's an artist vs. autist kind of thing.
Sure if it's acurate it's nice. But in the end I just want to play a nice game. And if the game is good but not super accurate, I'm ok with that.

Not related: Sometimes I wonder if the quality of communication would be better if there wasn't a captcha every time someone wants to post.

>>168408414
That's not how US taxes work. Steam is probably just located in a state that taxes digital goods.

Don't know what the rate is for Washington state, but it's probably not super high. You're most likely paying higher taxes for your country than the taxes placed on Steam's sales in Washington state


>>168408579
By like 5 cents nigga. It's not hidden taxes, just Steam is lazy as shit and doesn't want to implement different price points for different countries.

It'd probably mess with refunds.

>>168408875
not him but it applies for basically anyone who makes a sailing game, since sailing and water physics are pretty non-trivial to do except at the roughest approximations

>>168408910
Why do you think we have captcha?

>>168408949
water physics yes but you can cheat by putting a deck over the water line

sailing physics are trivial to calculate, even children can sail effectively

>>168408946
>By like 5 cents nigga.
Yeah, I'm probably not up to date. There may be not much of a difference now.

>>168408680
Handling real guns is complicated and not fun, there's the excuse.
It amazes me that there are people on /agdg/ that don't understand simple concepts such as artistic license and fun over realism.

Where's the Monday recap?

Including drag from wind and water? multiple sails? Please show me the trivial calculation for sailing upwind

>>168409015
Well, ok, maybe I should also get such a golden 4chan pass thing.

It's not visible to other people right?

>>168408732
Same here. The worst part is that a fair few of them are so up their own asses that they think their way of doing things(loading, priming, stance, etc) is the only true way, so even if you use references, you'll still get gunfags "correcting" you.

>>168406951
Woah looks nice. Is that post processing or something? Can you edit the values like how much is shaded?

>>168408946
Yes I am, and when I'm already giving Steam 30% and my country 40% of the remaining 70% any extra taxes feel like an insult.

>>168409162
>Including drag from wind and water?
with a craft of known design you can calcualte drag as a coefficient of the boat's current actual draught

>multiple sails?
multiple points at which power is delivered, no different from a car having multiple wheels or even power to both the front AND back in varying ratios

>I'm glad that swordfags don't throw sweaty autism fits about swords in games,
But they do all the time, you should go to /tg/ sometime

>>168408910
You need to balance it, definitely. At the end of the day you're making a game for people to play and fun is more important than anything else in most genres (excluding obvious stuff like sims and dorf fort whose main appeal is realism)
However keeping realism in mind is important too. It can be better to do your research and look at the source material rather than copying what everyone else has done before. For example making a game based in medieval times, you can just write based on what other media has done or actually do research and find out what life was like back then. If you're making a game you should base it off of what it's actually based on instead of other games in that genre (as much as possible). Otherwise it's just a remix of existing ideas rather than a "fresh take" on the subject

Then don't do business with Steam? You're choosing to do business in that state. If you don't want to pay the tax, use another internet retailer.

You won't get as many sales but at least you won't have to pay that measly 6.5%

>>168409456
this, idk why indies are so obsessed with steam, or sales in general

if youre making a game for fun, why not release it for free and solicit donations or have a patreon?

>>168409398
>you should base it off of what it's actually based on instead of other games

I'm a suporter of this anyway. Creativity gets lost if game devs only copy from game devs. Movie writers copy from other movies. And book authors just copy other books.
Real inspiration roots in reality. Day to day life experience, or real research from source material.

Yes, I also understand that lift is the responsible mechanism. But I studied physics in university. For an average gamedev, it's not trivial, except at very rough approximations, as we saw during boat jam.

This is a fusion of a custom material and a post processing one. Unfortunately, I couldn't get away without passing light vectors into materials through blueprints - it simply gives much better ramping results. There are also some additional settings in a Material Parameter Collection like outline edge thickness.
