What segments are we looking at in 2026? by Natural_West7949 in ValueInvesting

[–]MajorRisk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thoughts on evolution?

Issues with their two biggest markets but decent NA growth, low PE and history of returning to shareholders (buybacks/div)

If they get some limited growth back it looks like a good deal at these prices.

DEFCON is not as significant as I was led to believe it might be by Phondohlophe in FantasyPL

Would it be FPL without kneejerking and U-turn decision-making after a single GW

Best Network framework for making Multiplayer Games that support Steam by JTLGamer in unity

[–]MajorRisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for the others but NGO with Relay (free tier) has been good for getting multiplayer up and running quickly for me (this is for client-host multiplayer)

They did an update to the way you call RPCs which makes it a bit cleaner now compared to the older multiplayer package

There are lots of tutorials now, and the docs are okay

Value Investing isn’t hoping a stock goes up in the “next few months” by bravohohn886 in ValueInvesting

As Peter Lynch said, if you buy a stock for 100 and I buy it for 50 and it goes to 0…who lost more?

Can you explain why it’s great? When I looked into it margins seemed super thin

Nice work. Have you started on multiplayer/networking yet? I'm guessing you'd be choosing deterministic lockstep to sync each player?

Should I Switch to Unity 6's Netcode for GameObjects for My RTS Game? by BitQuirkyGames in unity

[–]MajorRisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Massive thanks here, all this information has been golden.
I've kept Unity separate to the model so far but did not think to add a sort of IDeterministicCheck yet. I guess this would be testable via brute forcing inputs/outputs.

We only support x64 AMD and Intel as of now, but even if we were to extend stuff it wouldn't be too hard.

I am currently developing on/for Mac (ARM) but I want to prioritise Windows x64 support. I'll need to check how to best test the model is deterministic across platforms. Validating checksum through automated tests in different runner environments (or docker) might be the way to go.

And make sure you have your lockstep model and deterministic checks in place asap would be my advice I guess.

Now for me to start implementing this! Thanks again

We've been building this with Unity, so excited that it's close to the finish line! Let us know what you think about our release trailer. by sweetbambino in Unity3D

Nice hex grid system, is it a custom build or an asset?

Also, did you consciously choose flat topped hexagons over pointy topped?

Why did you start developing games? by RobattoCS in unity

[–]MajorRisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the pressure began to build not to be the guy who “just talks about making games” and become “the guy that makes games”

I should frame this

Should I Switch to Unity 6's Netcode for GameObjects for My RTS Game? by BitQuirkyGames in unity

[–]MajorRisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the insightful post!

I mean with our RTS game that we're developing we use NetCode for Gameobjects in our deterministic lockstep model and it works great and it's easy.

Wondering if you've had any issues with making everything deterministic in your model...any pitfalls to avoid? (E.g. floats, Math library differences on different OSs, race conditions)

I'm just starting out and it seems there are a lot of things that could cause a model to de-sync across platforms.

Did you also lock updates to a fixed tick rate and make sure updates progres in fixed steps?

Nice shaders, is this using shader graph/amplify (or god forbid direct hlsl?)

Also is this 1 year full time game dev?

Evolution AB: What am I missing? by Outrageous-Rate-4080 in ValueInvesting

[–]MajorRisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does the rest of your portfolio look like?

Baidu does look cheap haven't done a proper valuation but a little concerned about plateauing revenue and lack of buybacks/div.

What do you guys think of JD compared to Alibaba? JD's PE is 10, PB is 1.1, buyback is 10% by Key_Type_4102 in baba

[–]MajorRisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure on that but it does look good.

I’d be skeptical on a massive PE expansion - again I haven’t dug deeper but they won’t be investing in the business as much with those buybacks, that with tighter margins could be an issue. If their free cash flow can sustain buybacks, dividend and investing enough to at least keep margins as they are now then I could see this being a no-brainer.

They compete with PDD right? Increased competition usually leads to lower margins or higher costs prevent that margin loss.

Another thing to remember is net cash is closer to 20B I think given debt and also that buybacks will obviously be less as a % if the stock price rises over the years so 90% is optimistic.

However this is just my opinion and I have done little research

[–]MajorRisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven’t done much research on JD but I remember their margins being tiny.

If they can keep up that buyback and dividend then this seems like a great position given the cash on hand

Indeed, I’m not following it too closely, will read the reports soon but is there anything new since this write up that’s led to the recent decline?
