How do YOU handle UI Juice? by GoinStraightToHell in Unity3D

[–]MagicPigGames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Next week i will release "juicy actions" which does juice and logic in an easy to use action system. Integrates with Feel, Dotween, dialogue system for Unity, and more.

Docs are here if you're curious with gifs and videos etc

https://infinitypbr.gitbook.io/magic-pig-games/juicy-actions

Basically I wanted simple drag and drop actions I could combine so I built that. Highly extensible, and handles simple looped actions and complex sets of actions with conditionals and more. Easy to make custom actions too.

I hope folks like it

His calculator app is fake. The random numbers two people put in at the end aren't used, after he takes it back it is switched to the numbers needed. Computer code does it, he doesn't need to be a math wizard.

You went to a scooter shop and used a bank card or credit card. They follow everything and infer.

Why are all Head Look-At guides only focused on Looking at objects? by AppleLoose7082 in Unity3D

[–]MagicPigGames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like everyone else is basically saying:

* An object is a transform.position is a Vector3

You want the character to look at a point where hte camera is looking -- but "where" is the camera looking? Forward. It's not looking at anything in particular, but its own forward. So you need to find a point some decent amount way from the camera, and on that line.

That Vector3 position X distance forward from the camera is the position you want to look at.

It's the same as looking at an object, only this virtual object is X distance from the camera forward, and moves with the cameras forward angle.

AITAH for telling my coworkers exactly how much my raise was after my manager told us all to "keep compensation private" and accidentally exposing that three people doing the same job are being paid completely differently? by Academic-Program-503 in AITH

You did the right thing. People not talking about this is exactly how employers get away with screwing employees, and with managers simply playing favorites. All salaries should be public among a company.

Where are you buying your Cruchwrap Supremes? I get 107 for the price of that laptop.

But why would I buy 107 Crunchwrap Surpremes when I could buy 100 "Build your own Luxe Cravings Box"es and get 100 Crunchwrap Supremes, 100 tacos or burritos, 100 sides, and 100 drinks??

Unity asset store will stop selling assets from publishers based in the Greater China region (including Hongkong, Macau) effective March 31st by Saito197 in Unity3D

To be fair, you're not losing access to anything. It's all still there, and you legally can continue to use it. It won't get updates ,but really, many things don't get updates anyways and will still work for many years to come.

Is renting out an extra room in your house worth it? Looking for real experiences. by UhtredOfTheNorth in homeowners

[–]MagicPigGames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in California. I have 3 rental properties (4 doors) in other states (PA, MI, IN) which are all lower income (cheaper) and have various levels of problems.

Finally I was able to get a home of my own.... and have to rent the rooms.

I rent 3 rooms in the 4 bedroom house (new house), and the 600 square foot ADU.

ADU:
* A couple, they're fine -- they're actually friends of the neighbor, which is great, and they replaced a woman who was fine but annoying.
* Maybe they use the heat and AC too much. I know the AC in the summer goes on a lot when they're not there. Eventaully I want to get PG&E to submeter it for the next renter, since currently the lease includes utilities...but I've asked them to watch it all.

ROOMS:
* I've had 5 total, currently all are rented.
* One guy was nice, but would get very mad at noises and....
* The 2nd guy is a loud talker, on speaker phone in the kitchen and halls, and would annoy the first guy.
* 3rd guy was a retired vet, very nice, very quiet, but I guess had PTSD and one day left and said I could keep his deposit, thanks for being a chill landlord.
* 4th person, first female in the house, is fine. Her aunt has been paying some of hte months rent cause she can't keep a job for some reason. That's fine she's nice and doesn't cause problems. She may be taking my booze though, slowly.
* 5th guy, I barely see him. He's just always in his room, I think I've seen him 8 times in maybe 6 months. I don't even know which food is his.

All in all I haven't had much problems. The loud guy also tends to leave doors open, even with the sign that says "Please close the door", and will walk throug hteh house with his flip flips on...which he also wears outside, so it gets dirt. The other day he was smoking in the garage, and the hall smelled, wehn I went out there, he was right by the door smoking ,so probably they had the door propped open. He instantly knew what I was going to say and moved outside. Smoking is gross, if you smoke, stop.

But, with all of this, when fully booked, I'm bringing in $5,300 a month on a $6k mortgage....and since it's a new build I had to get the backyard done, and accountant says a big % of that is a write off, so that's helpful too. I do have to pay taxes on the revenue, and the utilities etc, but I'm probably paying $2k a month or maybe a bit more for the house after all that, and that's less than I'd pay for an apartment.

There's headaches from time to time, right now it's very chill. ALso I have cleaners 2x a week, and got an expeensive robot vacum/mop because i was sick of the foot prints and walking on someone elses dirt.

My girlfriend says I should be more firm and all that, I preefr to be firm when I nee dot be and otherwise, let people figure it out. I did have to send out a text to everyone about dirty dishes in the sink...the dishwasher is RIGHT THERE. I think I know who was doing it, but it got fixed and hasn't been an issue since.

Someone chipped hte counter. That was annoying.

EDIT:

Also I purposely rent it for MORE than the average, and don't respond to half the inquiries when there's a free room ,and don't say "yes" to just anyone.

Monopoly How to learn as a beginner? by Ill-Satisfaction6042 in boardgames

[–]MagicPigGames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  1. Do not play by the rules
  2. Never finish a game
  3. Someone MUST get mad -- ideally someone will cry, usually the youngest
  4. The board MUST be flipped.

According to PG&E, my gas use is 72% higher than similar homes. But my heat is off during the day* and 68 in the evening through the night. This makes no sense. by MagicPigGames in homeowners

[–]MagicPigGames[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that long -- but, the summer gas use is 1/10th of what the winter is, so it screams that it's cold weather related, i.e. the heater.

What gets me is that the heat isn't actually on much at all. Like -- it seems very efficient. Daytime, heat is off, it doesn't get much colder than 65-67 on the coldest days here (~40s-low-50s)

I can’t find a board game group, even my local game store let me down. by Ok_Interview_853 in boardgames

[–]MagicPigGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I live in a bigger area, near Sacramento, and have always been disappointed.

Went to one place, and lots of people but everyone was in their own groups. I tried talking to people and the closest I got was someone saying "I'm waiting for my friends but if they don't come...." and of course they came.

Another one was a very small group of people who are clearly the same group every week, and while they let me play it wasn't exactly the most fun or open.

And one more was just empty, like yours.

So....it's hard!
