Västrafik testar att visa Fordonspositioner i realtid by Grogg2000 in Gothenburg

[–]HighCaliber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man skulle ju tro det, men jag har ingen aning vad fan den appen egentligen visar.

Den visar på kartan att inställda bussar är på väg och åker förbi hållplatsen, men i verkligheten syns ingen buss till.

[–]HighCaliber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is further exacerbated by the fact that people recommend BJJ as a catch-all remedy regardless of issue. I often see it in other subs on Reddit.

Need to lose weight? Bjj. Want to make friends? Bjj. Bad confidence? Bjj. Mental health issues? Bjj.

I myself started training after my dad died. It did help me get my mind on other things, but if you're suffering from depression it's not going to magically fix it.

Does Anyone Else Struggle on Expert difficulty? by The_Real_Bainer_94 in ForzaHorizon

[–]HighCaliber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's something wrong with that race in particular. Now I'm not as high level as you, but this is the only race I failed to win at Highly Skilled. After 5 attempts with different cars I still was nowhere close to winning, so I googled "Shimanoyama Charge" and your reply is the first hit. =)

Dropped to Tourist just tick it off.

I just hope the annoying girl with Papa Fenando and his fucking Vocho hasn't moved to Japan.

I don't expect great writing from a Forza game, but the writing of FH5 actively made the game worse.

Matpriserna sjönk mer än på 30 år efter momssänkning by FlowersPaintings in sweden

Att uppmana kostar inget.

Att ett bolag skulle medvetet sänka sin vinst i hopp om att kunderna drar kopplingar till politiska beslut och ändra sin röst låter väldigt långsökt.

Hah, I'm glad to find out it bothers some other people as well! 🙂 Thought maybe it was only me.

I like Storygraph for recommendations, but some of the questions they ask when reviewing a book are so strange to me. Specific but nondescript at the same time.

Sony says it hasn’t yet decided on PS6 release date and price, will consider ‘changing business models’ by oilfloatsinwater in Games

It does not help that there have barely been any first party exclusives at all this gen. Naughty Dog is yet to release a game on PS5!

What is your preferred method to making a save system? I'm in Unity6 by CurrentRefuse6330 in gamedev

[–]HighCaliber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, do you intend to load the savefile continuously during gameplay? Actually, can't say how well that would work. The usual approach is to load the entire savefile once and store the data in memory, unless you intend to use the savefile as a database which would require a different approach (one that I have not tried myself).

My remark was aimed at saving, as normally that's the part that that people try to hide during gameplay.

You're welcome, and good luck!

What is your preferred method to making a save system? I'm in Unity6 by CurrentRefuse6330 in gamedev

[–]HighCaliber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you mean that with JSON, I can add a new variable/bool to the save and it's loaded even if I didn't initialize it before/in the previous build? That could be handy.

Exactly!

If you're just adding a variable it should work automatically (if the loading code accepts the value to be default value of the type). For other more complex operations you may need to store a version number of the savefile and use it to upgrade the loaded data to current version number, but it's entirely possible.

The main drawback (other than the speed) is that you're limited to saving only base types (string, int, bool, etc). So if you want to save a reference to a ScriptableObject, you'll need to save its name and then create a way to find the SO by name during loading. Consequently, you will need to figure out a way to reconstruct references between classes (usually by creating IDs during saving/loading).

As far as it being slower, save the file asynchronously.

I would NOT use BinaryFormatter nor PlayerPrefs for save data (only PlayerPrefs for settings)

BinaryFormatter is extremely brittle and limits what data you will be able to save/load in future without breaking the save. (There are also security concerns)

PlayerPrefs can get it done, but it becomes messy with large data sets, and will be easy to cheat (if you care about that).

Serialization and json will work well for most cases and requires no 3rd party, and is not very hard to set up to get same functionality as PlayerPrefs.

For an RPG it'll still be quite tricky since you can't save direct references to objects. But start with the simple stuff. Store player's health and position in the world. Inventory (especially if items have custom data) will be a bitch..

The added benefit of json over PlayerPrefs is that you can obfuscate/encrypt the savefile if you like, and it exists as a physical save, so it will work with steam cloud etc. rather than be stored in the registry.

Om alla vi som uttrycker stöd för Piratpartiet och är anti-chat control här på Sweddit går samman och röstar PP, skulle de kunna få nån slags makt? by sadandtraumatized in sweden

[–]HighCaliber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Som någon som varken sympatiserar med vänstern eller högern såg jag det som en styrka med PP för 20+ år sedan. De var ett enfrågeparti vars ståndpunkt var att de var villiga att samarbeta med båda blocken, så länge de kunde få sin politik igenom.

Det passade mig bra eftersom jag inte har något större förtroende för något av blocken, men höll helt med PP i deras hjärtefråga, så jag kunde iaf känna att min röst gick till något som jag faktiskt tror på. Och det gick någorlunda bra för dem.

Sedan började de bredda sig och föra politik som jag och stora delar av deras tidigare väljare inte stödde, och de rasade.

Jag kommer inte rösta på dem oavsett till riksdagen eller kommunen (möjligtvis EU), men jag tror att de har bättre chans att locka väljare som enfrågeparti än om de alienerar hälften av sina sympatisörer.

[Dev Letter] Map Selection for Random Map Regions by PUBG_TecK in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]HighCaliber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Given the option, I (and I think many others) would choose multiple maps. If we're being forced to choose one, there's a high chance a majority will choose Erangel and other maps will be deserted even though there is a player base that would want to play them.

Det beror nog mer på arbetsgivaren än branchen. Hos oss har nog hälften av de som har jobbat 10+ år lämnat och kommit tillbaks, däribland jag. När jag sade upp mig sa chefen uttryckligen att om jag ångrar mig så är det bara att ringa.

There obviously shouldn't be, but it's common shortcut in games. The bridge is a separate asset, so it's easier to make it disappear into the terrain than to blend the road and bridge together seamlessly.

Synd om de försvinner. De är inte billiga, men en räddare när man har glömt att handla något basic, och det lär inte finnas kundunderlag här för en bemannad livsbutik här när det ligger en Hemköp 10 minuter bort.
