Looking good, but shave off couple blocks from the top. I tried converting mine to 5x5 wheels but it was too tight a fit, could move the back wheels and make it slightly shorter by moving the cockpit forward as well. And something something couple rocket launchers. Cockpit is at the back with its hatch being the only entry into the vehicle.

Alright it's decent enough. Trying to ram a planetary lander at full speed still killed me from sheer G shock even though the cockpit is all the way at the back. Functions perfectly with half its front missing, though you have to enable steering on middle wheels. Missile turret on a rotor can be used to flip yourself over should the need arise.

I have no idea what the fuck he's thinking anymore. Perhaps he wants to make anything but FtD right now.

In any case, the REMo update is progressing pretty amazingly well. We got optimisation for part counts up to 400 running at 60fps, dueling AI, multiple arenas that you can switch between on the fly, free spectator camera, thruster bind GUI and the fix for the bug that was really annoying, some texture work, toggling off the help and version gui with a button prompt and... uh... I think that's it for now. SoG and REMcast soon.

eggpyrion update

>>149773613
How is it lazy to simply change a few lines around to add the ability for more resources? That's either colossal, all encompassing laziness or purposefully being an asshole because he's a sore loser and won't allow himself to be wrong, ever, therefore he punishes everyone for *daring* to tell him he's in any way wrong.

In short, he's being a huge cunt, and I won't touch it again until that changes.
The way I'm seeing it, single resource will never fucking get removed. Even if his temper changes in the future, he'll be too much of a lazy ass to do something about it because "it's too late I'd have to redo everything," as if that stopped him this time. Though I honestly doubt he'll change his mind in any way. That'd be a complete miracle. RIP FTD.

>>149778113
The laziness is him reducing resources. All of excuses he sites for the change point to him just not wanting to deal with it. The lashing out is all the forum bullshit and the refusal of mods.

>>149785507
That setup uses raw materials to make low grade belts to make mid grade belts to make high grade belts, correct? And the high grade belts move stuff faster?

If that's the case, you're blatantly wasting materials.

>>149785507
>neat

choose one.
Also who on earth needs yellow belts when he can shit out red and blue ones

>>149778919
I'm not even talking about making it toggleable. Moddable resources, so you can just add more resources yourself on top the stupid fucking "materials", should be asininely simple to add. He's just being a spoiled child about it.

>>149784948
That fuzzah fellow seems to be a butthurt sassy bitch who spends too much time on the internet. It's just a game, and the resources can change back if they don't work well.
If I had to deal with that kind of playerbase on a regular base I would hire a PR guy (like chunky from KSP kek) and only appear on useful threads once in a while.

>>149786232
I don't know much about programming but it would mean (as far as i can guess):

>find everything related to resources
>modify it so it can accept extra stuff
>make the UI self-adjusting to accommodate the amount of different resources
>make sure everything doesn't break

Dunno, maybe someone with actual programming knowledge could approach him and say "Yo! I was looking for some internship training regarding video games. I like engineering games. Your game is in development. May i help you for no monetary compensation?"

It depends on how it's set up. Going from 1 of something to many of something is generally not difficult to implement, but it's time-consuming. Potentially there's a whole lot of problems with interactions that also need to be accounted for.

I don't have a clue about FtD but arranging an actual game engine for modding capabilites is not something insanely easy. It implies refurnishing the basecode so the player can interact to it with their homemade plugins. Shit needs work.

>>149786614
All of which Nick already had to go through in order to remove all said resources and replace them with just one.
He's a lazy motherfucker, and an asshole at that.

>>149790714
See >>149793535
There must already be some basic framework for it, as they did major reworks of the game to make basically anything changeable in the game, limited only to resources and a few other things like faction configuration and AI and the such.
Not to mention he literally just removed five resources and replaced them with one, going through all the involved effort and "rebalancing" the campaign. It wouldn't be difficult at all to add in a few branches, some UI and change around the filesystem to support additional resources.

>>149785829
How so? I don't see why that would be the case there. His setup seems okay, if he has the chest set to limit slots.

>>149793926
Because a significant fraction of belts will be clogged for their entire lifetime unless you're even more autistic than the rest of us. The speed of a clogged belt doesn't matter, so it should be whatever is cheapest.

>>149794227
>clogged belt
Eh... so? I don't see what's inherently bad about that unless you're going for max autism/efficiency or really need some specific product made and a bottleneck of low-tier material occurs.

Clip out the tiny roads that connect to the large and keep the medium on the large. A chain of lights is a heavy penalty for traffic.

The idea of those legs are too slow, the best way would be a mix of legs and wheels with suspension in the contact system, so you have some bounce and also some control of the friction, wich makes easier the whole movement, you will need 2 movements instead of 6.

Sometimes you will consume so much that the amount carried over time will not be enough to supply it and you will face a shortage, even with enough materials to input on said belts, there is just so much a belt can carry. A workaround would be using more belt lines, but faster belts helps too.

I sort of agree, but today's market means you practically need a degree just to get your foot in the door unless you are incredibly well-connected. I will say that I learned a lot of things from talking to my professors, outside of my studies. A lot of it is things they picked up throughout their career and don't teach in class because it's not entirely relevant and/or takes up too much classtime, but are happy to elaborate on during office hours.

>>149860482

those are 2 words you should never see together

Is there anyway to "rotate selection around axis" in Algodoo? It's a fucking pain when it always rotates around the center of mass. It makes three way symmetry a pain in the ass.

>>149860594
it's using them as arrows, not mathematical symbols.
first base establishes it, then RSO overrides base.

>>149834231
Its kinda fun. but making a hull is like a third of building process. And its getting more and more complex the further it goes.


You have to keep air drag, and weight/buyoancy ratio if you a making a non hydrofoil boat, in mind as you make a hull.

Then you have to build a custom engine with exhausts outside, then you have to make custom weapons and ammo.

Then, after placing the cargo/ammo blocks, you have to fine tune centers of propulsion/mass/drag and the settings of AI and control blocks.

And then you have to make sure that your sub/plane can actually go relatively straight while fighting,

>>149860618

The whole point of water cooling is that you do it yourself, where's the fun in buying some crappy off-the-shelf kit?

>>149862398
Technically you're cooling things with a big copper plate that is being cooled from the other side by water.

>>149862498
That's just retarded, they figured out it was a retarded cooling solution wayback when Deep Blue was the hottest supercomputer.

File: water.webm (2MB, 1152x858px) Image search: [Google]

2MB, 1152x858px

>>149862364
Yeah, it's not too good though. Due to physics fuckery the water is fairly compressible and pretty laggy in large amounts.

>>149862498

But then how are you going to cool the oil?

You would need some kind of pumps to move it around otherwise it will just sit over the heatsinks and get hot, and then how are you going to cool the oil? Water has a higher heat capacity, water cooling is much better established, and much more effective.

>>149862683
I dont see why.
>>149862563
You can use fans to keep the liquid in movement, or a pump, If the tank is large enough, you wont need external radiators.

>>149862641
Ok. The question is can we pile up a good amount of water in a reservoir and let it flow to another reservoir through a tube at a constant rate?

>>149862780
I'm sorry, I've fed you misinformation. They figured out it was a shit cooling solution when CRAY-2 was hot shit.

Well if you have old hardware you can throw to the oil god and have literally nothing better to do, then godspeed you absolute madman. Post pics.

But that won't change the fact that closed circuit watercooling is best colling solution for a gaming PC and a blade server with couple huge fans moving absurd ammounts of air through it is the best for anything more serious.

seems so

>>149863397
Buy EVGA 1080 Ti hybrid, buy a small tank and mount it on whatever CPU, leave a couple case fans running at low RPMs so the rest doesn't hotbox itself to death and you've got a silent computing rig (silent computing cases never ever work for anything above entry tier hardware). Or, mehmet, my son, you can drench all of that in cooking oil.

Change all the parts that impact with non deformable blocks, like blast doors.

Nick simplified resources. Wood, metal, oil, scrap, and crystal are all unified as a single resource: material (or money)
He even gave some bullshit reasons.

I would have continued to play after this, but now he goes and "improves" the game by not being able to place CRAM 6 way connectors in turrets.
My new naneaux battleship with 30 CRAM guns in it's turrets? Dead before being finished.

Just stop being so assblasted by it.

>>149885797
And you stop being Nick.

>>149885459
Why in the everloving fuck would he do that.
After all the bullshit Keen put me through I thought FtD was the only thing above that bull.

the "never obsolete" on the sticker refers to the fact that you can trade it in every 2 years for a better computer for $99.

He got assblasted about some forumites who honestly were very annoying. The weird part is that he behaved like a child. But gamebreaking shit like this usually gets fixed, and it's only on the dev branch so you can test it and complain on the forums.

>meteors
>fixed
so they finally deleted them from the game?

>>149886152
Well as far as him acting like a turbo queer, I usually expect someone to act like a faggot once in a while.
The question is, will he remain that way or calm down and see reason later.

Can't put blast doors on a small grid, sonny jim. But that's not a bad idea, except batteries and cockpits are also non-deformable but that didn't stop them from being torn the fuck out from all the deformable shit being destroyed.

>>149883216

Basically yes.

It introduces some neat resources and intermediates but you have to just try to not look at the pictures, it also helps to open the mod files and ctrl+F for "yiff" and replace it with something else.

Gyros then, on large ships they make great kinetic warheads.
Have you seen that video about warped armor destroying shit even if that part wasn't hit? That's why I'm saying to use non derformable blocks, there is no reason why your cockpit should break since it was in the back.

>there is no reason why your cockpit should break since it was in the back.
Wheel clang is the reason. See also yuge crater left in the ice from several wheels clanging at once.

>>149891616
Looking at it closely, is there no armor under the cockpit?
Clang is always very pleased with these things.

If you have no armor there, then you can't probably solve this, wheels will clang many time and it takes only a little clanging to take out a cockpit.
Can you change it to seat+remote? The back won't look as cool but you can probably get some more durability if you add a layer of armor, and if I recall correctly the seat is shorter than the cockpit in height.

>food>vidya

Can't you just get some cheaper food? You can get B-grade peanuts from pet stores intended for use in bird feeders, but they're more or less safe for humans and are a good source of protein which is filling.

Cut it in half for ya. Literally all this thing has, not even renewable oxygen for cockpit. Cockpit is in direct contact with rear wheel mounts, all the batteries are in contact with all the other wheels, so it's a chain reaction.

What you're saying is go large grid idiot, and I will consider, but strictly speaking if I ever need to go carmageddon on someone's ass I have 3 rocket launchers on a rotor mount. This thing runs over cyberdoges beautifully as is.
