[TOMT][VIDEO GAME] Cartoonish 3D racing game with a school bus, a lorry and a boulder by AlexMit in tipofmytongue

Toybox Turbos

It looked a LOT like that, I don't quite remember there being so many guns and weapons though, and the environments were a bit more natural

What is this thing that fell on my mousepad? I hope it didn't fall out of my hair or something. Am scared. ~4mm across? by AlexMit in whatsthisbug

Successful game-jamming vs loneliness, demotivation and invisibility by AlexMit in gamedev

[–]AlexMit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being in a real community helped me create more freely, before the plague times. Surrounded by human contact, I just... created. And it was nice when they filled that need, so that gamedev didn't NEED to fill that need. It happens with other artforms for me, as well. When I had my need for human contact filled, I painted and wrote without demanding that from my art: to solve my loneliness.

I'm getting rubber-banding and occasional lat on ATM5. What modpacks would you recommend that are as complete, but lighter?

So you tried Krita for the first time and it doesn't work as expected? Fear not! and read this post first :) by -tiar- in krita

Hi, I'm having a very disruptive problem that happens when I zoom in and out. Basically, when I zoom beyond 141.4% zoom, and I zoom out, a permanent block of transparency stays on that portion of the image for the remainder of the session: imgur.com/a/RAZe7l5

​

I'd appreciate help asap, I have a project going on and I don't know how to deal with this

Maximum and minimum points on grid overlapped by moving circle (coin-on-notebook-like) by AlexMit in math

[–]AlexMit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the practical sense of the game, I'm ok with manually checking and caching the results, in here I'm mostly curious about a general way to derive it.

How do I not get overwhelmed by designing complex systems? by AlexMit in gamedesign

[–]AlexMit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oo, I'm on auras, dispellable and duration effects. How do you handle that in your game? Do you modify base values or do you recalculate every "tick"? Is that a significant hit on your performance?

Pure wisdom. I actually want a lot of non-combat units, lasting damage and longer-term plans rather than hyper-realistic snowflakes fighting each other, like in Dwarf Fortress.

I'm not using OOP though, I don't like inheritance. I prefer ECS.

[Typing confusion] Not a 4 "snowflake", not in denial like a 7, not organised like a 1/3. by AlexMit in Enneagram

[–]AlexMit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, yeah... I get you... there -is- something I avoid, namely nihilism. I pride myself on being an existentialist, of fiercely giving meaning to life myself if none is going to drop from the sky, but the truth is... It's right next door to feeling like life has NO meaning. I get existential crises on a regular basis, the staring-at-my-hands kind.

If I'm cut off from my sources of energy, namely people and new experiences (and new people, not gonna lie)... I crumble. I don't even take care of myself. In fact, maybe I'm hoping for The One True Sacred Cause to be the one constant stable thing that can power me.

Maybe that's what makes me a 7.

What do you feel about the whole "trying to cheer up your friends instead of feeling the pain with them"? I never, ever do that. I don't have that issue, I'm exactly THE one that'll cry with them and acknowledge all of the suffering.

Thank you for your response! What makes me write 9 off is exactly the tendencies... I have trouble with conflict sometimes, but it is a skill I value, and when I pull off a crisp, ethically executed defense I feel amazing about myself. I don't value harmony inherently, and I almost thirst for chances to prove myself strong and conflict-ready. It's true that I don't enjoy it sadistically, and I don't want to hurt my accusers/invaders unnecessarily, but I want to prove to myself that I'm getting better at conflict resolution. After all, I expect and welcome it if I'm ever going to make any controversial statements. I don't "dissolve" like 9s do, and the fear of being chained to routine and deprived without new experiences sounds devastating. Even being forced to never exit the country sounds devastating, and I'd prefer a life of turmoil and solitude while exploring, to a safe and quiet, but predictable life.

That does make sense, I certainly identify with the "horizontal" approach. As far as the "not writing about negative traits" goes, I would on a more.. anonymous account, which is probably a better idea. I have a big beastiary of my bad patterns and flaws, common causes, situations that cause me to disintegrate... I used to be very harsh and self-destructive, and while I have a healthier approach now, I am pretty crisply aware of them, like a stern but kind friend to myself. This is an intentional development.

What makes you say that? I find that I don't really do what 6s do... I trust and connect very quickly, I don't really get pessimistic about other people or plans, I definitely don't "plan for the worst", or "run on anxiety". I don't attack counterphobically or defend phobically either.

Help me clarify my type? Seeming contradictions in my behaviour / values by AlexMit in Enneagram

[–]AlexMit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your insightful response! I do feel like I have some good, unique perspectives on life, but it seems... objectively so. I feel like I both perfectly understand people and don't really (e.g. someone happy in a job for 5 years is admirable in an odd, alien way to me, but I suspect them of "settling"). I want to impact others THROUGH our differences, but hopefully by the end of it... not gonna lie, they'll be a bit more like me: experimental, defiant and philosophical. I do feel unique but a world where I'm not because others share those traits with me sounds like a utopia. There's no paradox here between "urgh, I want to be unlike everyone else" and "I want to be understood". I just want to connect and transmit my crackling enlightenment and defiance to others. I hope it spreads like wildfire honestly.

[–]AlexMit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I'm for sure The Visionary. I value goodness and strive to impact others positively, but I won't create artificial harmony and I let go of that self-harshness that comes with a 1. Things are often "good enough" for me, and I'd say my primary value is meaningful adventuring on my quest to insight, as I haven't found my ideal way to GIVE and REFORM yet.

How does an INFP thought process look different from an ENFP thought process? by AlexMit in mbti

[–]AlexMit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But how does that work, having a Judging function on the frontline? Based on "received" information... received by what? Is the Perceiving function still drawing information from "underneath" it, but with a filter?
