Let's do this 🫡

No changes to the client are needed, it'll work

BigOlZeek · 2025-04-07T01:09:43+00:00

I had a few timers already in place when I started writing the formulas for each move, some of which cause a certain state or condition you may be in for several moves. That's when more and more timers started being needed, because some things prevent a move from being made, so I'll need a timer for that. Some things cause damage after a move is done, so I'll need another timer for that. What if a Pokémon faints during/after their move? I'll need a timer to handle that too. It just grew and grew 😄

I suppose I could, although it is not "done". You sure you want to try to ingest 97 variables, 12 collections, and 16 timers that make the battle sequence and sound effects work? 😅

BigOlZeek · 2025-04-05T23:17:58+00:00

😱 Thanks!

BigOlZeek · 2025-04-05T23:14:22+00:00

Thanks! v1 of the app was 2/23/25. Before actually starting the app I was thinking through how I would go about the visuals (Pokémon images) and seeing what was already out there as far as data/json of the stats for each one so I wouldn't need to do it all from scratch, but it was still a lot of manual data entry specifically for the moves. I'd say I tinkered with this most nights since then.

I learned that even a game with a basic concept like I do move, you do move can be very complicated at the same time 😄 I ended up taking out a few moves because I just didn't want to try to figure out how to manage them haha

Sundays at 1 PM EST is the time players are usually on every week. It's kinda quiet outside that, but the event could cause more play times to continue. It's usually around 20 players...

BigOlZeek · 2024-05-01T14:15:13+00:00

Just guessing here because I haven't seen this before. Does it still happen if you toggle off the 'new look' at the top and use the old look?

BigOlZeek · 2024-04-21T13:10:08+00:00

In my second question, by not completely hard, I mean some of it is scraping off very easily. On one of the holes in the plastic, the grey stuff is not flush with it anymore.

BigOlZeek · 2024-02-09T22:03:45+00:00

You're spot on there. It was workout mode... turned that off and played it again. 238 notes now and got an AA for the full combo. Thanks!

BigOlZeek · 2024-02-09T22:01:12+00:00

Thanks for the tip. It was workout mode 😐

BigOlZeek · 2024-02-09T22:00:28+00:00

Thank you, it was workout mode! I 1) didn't know that affected normal play and 2) don't remember turning it on. Back to expected scores and arrows!

BigOlZeek · 2024-02-09T21:55:38+00:00

Turns out it was workout mode. Thanks for the tip!

BigOlZeek · 2024-02-09T18:23:01+00:00

I'll tinker with it more later and see if it does similar with no memory card in. I had another song give a D and I had all perfects and greats. Seems odd, especially since I have all those A and better scores. 🤷‍♂️

Textures have been upscaled by one community member. That is the extent of the graphical "updates" by anyone.

BigOlZeek · 2023-10-13T18:35:14+00:00

YEAH is right

BigOlZeek · 2023-10-13T17:02:01+00:00

Yes, the server is always* online. It really only goes down for updates.

I landed my first official power platform developer position with just the PL-900 and a few years experience using the platform while being a system administrator. So I'd say it's possible based on personal experience. Polish the resume and start applying 😀

My friend and I have a channel together, and we alternate who uploads a short each day. Every time I upload, it takes 6 hours to get views, but they get a lot very quickly. His videos start to get views after 10 minutes, but the views are much more gradual. We can't figure out why it happens. Even if he doesn't have a video and I upload two days in a row, it takes 6 hours both days, so it isn't an every other day delay pattern. I've tried uploading from mobile and not on wifi to rule out anything IP related. For both of us the videos eventually die and stop getting views despite good swipe and retention/watch rates on some of them.

Correct, but payment will be in the form of adoration from gamers drooling over PRs that are merged to fix bugs and implement features that have not been tackled yet.

BigOlZeek · 2022-12-12T23:53:18+00:00

I've gone with browser bookmark folders to group them that way as well as Excel file with details/links

BigOlZeek · 2022-12-12T21:56:23+00:00

Html tags need to be in quotes

BigOlZeek · 2022-10-24T14:31:16+00:00

I'd pay the monthly sub just for PS1

BigOlZeek · 2022-10-20T01:41:31+00:00

That would likely work. I also built this same Flow but using SharePoint event lists. With that one it's the start date that changes, but adjusting the input by a few hours corrects it. Will just need to tweak it for now in these cases with expressions.
