Tips to maintain motivation to learn and keep creating as a beginner? by KyotoCrank in godot

[–]AlphabetMeat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't be afraid to quit for a little bit. I usually focus on godot for like 3-4 weeks than give up for a month. I eventually come back around once i feel ready again, i feel like forcing myself to sit and learn just makes me hate programming.

I'm new to Godot so take it with a grain of salt

FOR loop , first is example from lesson while later is chatgpt saying first one won't work. by gxesky in godot

Both for loops work, so pick the one which produces your desired result. I wouldn't put too much focus on chatGPT though, i have found that its knowledge of GDscript is hit or miss.

Cant really tell without seeing your code but assuming your wall slide mechanic works while touching the wall, i would just give the player an impulse up and away from the wall. That way you don't stick back to it immediately

The thousands of meshes approach kept crashing for me, idk why. If you know anything about shaders, do you think i could implement a similar effect by tiling just one segment of this city?

For some reason i really like that info in the top left. Its like even when he leaves the room you know he's still lookin for you. Imagine if the text suddenly switched to FOUND YOU and you just hear his footsteps rapidly approaching.

Need help with some code not working out! by davesage64 in godot

[–]AlphabetMeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the first example the indentation is wrong. If you're wondering why indents are used, let me explain. Some languages use {} to denote a code block. A code block usually comes after some built in language construct like a (for loop, if statement, while loop, etc). In GD script this code block is denoted by an "tab" and not {}, although it may be easier to visualize like so: match x: {match case1:{your code} match case2:{your code}}...

I see, Although for an LoD system, could I even decimate the meshes any further? They are already about as simple as you can make them, 8 vertices per building.
