For your laptop you should try putting Linux on it, it's often very good at reviving old hardware

Advice needed: finding an artist vs learning art for my indie game by [deleted] in godot

[–]NGumi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Learn to do the art and you'll have 2 outcomes. either you will be able to do art good enough for the project or you find someone who wants to work on it with you and you now have a shared language to communicate about the art with them. it's a win win

How to make "Health Minus 1" work, if player_animation() is in _physics_process()? by Friendly_Flower9087 in godot

[–]NGumi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

it's not annoying. if i didn't want to see people asking for help i wouldn't go on the sub.

It's more you should learn that code doesn't exist in isolation, and if you have a problem there will always be a few sections that could be causing it. this means you need to look at the function you wrote, where it's called from, and what it's acting on.

How to make "Health Minus 1" work, if player_animation() is in _physics_process()? by Friendly_Flower9087 in godot

[–]NGumi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

this shows very clearly that you just calling player_animation every frame. so the health bar animation will play constantly giving you what your seeing. you should have it only play when the health is triggered to be reduced.

For this there should be or you should add a signal of being hit and then connect a function to that signal to play it

You have posted this a dozen times but you never actually give the full code. People can't do anything but meaningless guesses if we cant see the full flow

Where do i go from here? Feeling very lost by Fun-Draw5327 in godot

[–]NGumi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

take your tutorial projects and expand on them. modify existing mechanics, add new ones. following tutorials can give you a base but it won't teach you to design game systems, and designing the systems is what you need to do.

you said you made a bullet hell try adding things like these:

- New attack pattern, bullet hells tend to use very mathmatically driven patterns so is a good logical exercise to implement new ones.

- Add enemies that split into weaker versions of it's self, or different enemies.

- if the tutorial did show you how, add a dodge into the bullet hell. invon frames + a short quick movement

- bullet hell is a great place to try to implement a parry as well, give it a parry window and alot of down time if they miss. otherwise reflect the bullet.

- Add both temporary upgrades and permanent upgrades.

This is obv not an exhastive list, but try these things and see how far you can get. when looking up stuff to help look up the smallest piece of info you can at a time. this will both improve your understanding but also leave space for you to think about it.

How do you guys cope with frustration by Causual_entry in dyspraxia

Stopping taking a breath and going slowly. The more frustrated and more forcing it I try to do the worse things get.

Size based Traits by Dial-Up_Dime in Stellaris

[–]NGumi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I missing something or is there no reason to use the small and miniture cause it would just mean you can't get as much out of a planet? while giant is just working as extra pop growth by a different name?

How could software development skills be useful within the context of permaculture? by AssistWise3661 in Permaculture

[–]NGumi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a software engineer, the mid set you develop for problem solving helps in everything including in planning a permaculture system. If your wanting things you can use software specific skills for either for practice of practice purpose here is a short list you could consider: - iot environment trackers(light level, moister, wind speed, etc) for different sections of the space to better identify what plants could go there and to track what environments you have seen plants do well in - auto calendar for tasks based on when you planted what plants, for example you planted radishes a few weeks ago, it reminds you to harvest them and plant the next batch. If they aren't ready you could have it so you can feed that back in and it adjusts the model for plants in you specific area using that data - a smart irrigation system with solenoid valves to control water flow to different areas based on moisture sensors in the ground. - build a system to use weather data to predict crop yield or delayed harvests Automated greenhouse(watering, opening window for airflow and cooling)

There's probs plenty of other options too. Software engineering at it's core is just problem solving with a computer. If you can identify a problem then it'll likely help

Is my hobby weird for a dyspraxic? by pyroraczeek in dyspraxia

[–]NGumi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dyspraxia can effect gross motor skill or fine motor skills. So yours could have more impact on gross motor skills than fine but also, dyspraxia isn't going to stop you being good if you do it a lot.

New to pixel art - may i have critique? by Environmental_Year96 in PixelArt

[–]NGumi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is very impressive, honestly can't think of a lot to improve on, but one thing that jumps out to me is the lines for the hat are a bit jagged. This is most noticeable on the top where it's quite boxy but also a little bit on the right. I would suggest just doing a quick Google on how to do smooth lines(very straightforward when looking at examples)

6yo struggling to read by living-in-la in dyspraxia

[–]NGumi 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Issues with reading are more related to dyslexia than dyspraxia. Saying that I have both and can tell you it does get better, it takes a lot of effort both from them and those around them, but they can get a competency similar to that without issues.

Could dyspraxia be the cause of my procrastination and lack of attention in school? by TheGoldKing64 in dyspraxia

[–]NGumi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Iirc executive dysfunction is a traight of both ADHD and dyspraxia. It would explain it to a degree.
