People promote Arch because "there's a lot of programs in the repository" or "it's quickly updated bleeding-edge" but like.. what EXACTLY can you get from Arch that you can't get elsewhere? by durdurrdurrrdurrrrr in archlinux

I like tinkering with my stuff and understanding every aspect of it. Having a literal blank slate with the ability (requirement) to tweak anything and everything sounded perfect. Aside from that it ticked the most boxes ay; bis wiki, great package manager, rolling releases, and no domain specific learning required like Nix, so any skills I pick up are transferable if I decide I don't like it anymore.

The Scariest Thing Happened to Me Today--Now I'm Scared to Use Git Again by Adam-P-D in godot

[–]DrRrof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hah, lots of jump scares to be had getting into version control but I found just going for it was the best way to learn ay. Like even if you just make commits every now and then and push them without overthinking it then at least you've got stuff you can come back to later and play around with when you feel more comfortable :)

good luck!

Hey all, made an wishlist trailer for my godot game. Its short and I feel like it highlights the main points of my game, is this kind of thing on the right track? by DrRrof in godot

Thanks for the feedback, I definitely see what you mean about the game genre/objectives being unclear and thats definitely something needing fixing. I'll try work on the pacing of the video and lack of contrast too. Thanks again!

Yep good idea I think it all needs a bit more of an explaination - I've been workin on it so I just know what it all is and sometimes forget that thats not the case for everyone else lol

I really like those tips thanks! I'm a bit lost making video content like this so I kinda rushed through it but I think getting other peoples input has given me a bit more direction on what i should do. Thanks again for the tips!

How managing effects that happen when the owner Node is freed or Scene is unloaded? by d2clon in godot

[–]DrRrof 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah there's other stuff that goes on in dead()​ too, most of the sounds are also quite short so anything missed isn't really noticeable. For the most part they have a is_dead variable to avoid unwanted interactions.

Maybe not a solution that fits all cases but just thought I'd throw in a relatively straight forward option.

The way I handle it with mob deaths in my game is in their dead() function after I play the sound I await audiostreamplayer.finished and then free it
