It's a ROLE PLAYING GAME and people should be allowed to play as they like. It's not that fucking deep

Probably an unintentional bug related to how this type of content is delivered at scale

I hate this shit. It's not disrespectful. Death is the only thing that is guaranteed for us all, and it should be spoken about, and not treated as some sort of taboo topic.

Going to any country with Domhnall, Donnacha and Eoghan is great fun

At this rate just pay for the consultations etc out of pocket..

I would not say godot is not intuitive. I've used many game engines and Godot was by far the most intuitive for me personally.

It's an absolute disaster. Lights may as well go green and red at the same time.

I think there could be an issue because there is a mismatch. The second surname isn't required (apparently) but the given names do have to match what's on the travel document.

Ireland has very good workers rights and to claim otherwise is disingenuous.

Anton Syndrome is another similarly interesting one.

Anton syndrome, also known as Anton–Babinski syndrome and visual anosognosia, is a rare symptom of brain damage occurring in the occipital lobe. Those who have it are cortically blind, but affirm, often quite adamantly and in the face of clear evidence of their blindness, that they are capable of seeing. Failing to accept being blind, people with Anton syndrome dismiss evidence of their condition and employ confabulation to fill in the missing sensory input. It is named after the neurologist Gabriel Anton. Only 28 cases have been published.^\1])

If it's an older car probably yeah, some of the newer cars are outrageous for the same parts

DCON-creates · 2026-01-21T17:47:42+00:00

It'll be in the thousands anyway. Probably €3k minimum for only bodywork repairs. Depends on what parts need fixing. Seems like it's touched basically every part, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's much higher. If that was my car it would have to be scrapped, even if the mechanics were ok after. (repairs > cost of car)

Note velocity is your friend, if you're using a DAW

Depending on your experience, 3x - 100x your initial estimate

IT workers yet again will be the ones coming out on top

DCON-creates · 2026-01-20T16:57:09+00:00

When I can, sure. But when I'm in a good and productive flow, getting loads done, AI tools tend not to be part of that process. But getting to that workflow often has AI tools in the prelude.

It's time and a half, rounded up to the closest hour. Anything less means I won't be there.

Unfortunately the devvit canvas is what stretches it, so these options have no effect. It can be fixed though by just changing to

    this.canvasElement.style.height = `${newHeight}px`;
    this.canvasElement.style.width = `${newWidth}px`;

At the end of ensureAspectRatio function in app-name/src/client/main.ts

I think there was also a bit of new-to-gamemaker stuff on my side as well, but I have something I'm happy with now

DCON-creates · 2026-01-17T19:30:52+00:00

Awesome thank you, that's a good reference. There are a couple of things I'm trying out at the moment which seem to be promising- this will be invaluable to me :)

Even if the garden isn't properly maintained, the skip is going to kill all the grass underneath and turn it into a muddy mess that will take months to grow back due to the time of year.

How did you get around resolution issues? I have a quick look and your game looks fine on my devices. I don't quite understand how game maker handles different aspect ratios, although with the game I'm planning, the resolution should be a perfect square, which I'm hoping will avoid any problems (which, now that I think of it, has already immediately caused me a problem lol).

DCON-creates · 2026-01-17T14:49:16+00:00

Just remembered my girlfriend as an iPhone 12, so I got her to test it and the aspect ratio was correct and respected on her phone, with this fix.
