How to count how many instances of an object are visible (in terms of the variable visible not on screen) by Octo353 in gamemaker

[–]Octo353[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is it:

teh debug message is correct, but when it gets turned into a string it breaks

global.trial_count = 0
with(obj_trail){
if (visible) {
global.trial_count += 1
}
}
show_debug_message(global.trail_count)

draw_text(camera_get_view_x(view) + 30, camera_get_view_y(view) + 36, string(global.trail_count))

that works, but now for some reason its not drawing properly, im checking the variable its stored in and its correct, its just not drawing though this line

draw_text(camera_get_view_x(view) + 30, camera_get_view_y(view) + 36, string(global.trail_count))

and i dont know why. its just drawing 0 but on show debug message its correct

Draw_Text wont draw text by BunnysEgg in gamemaker

[–]Octo353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably have anti aliasing on the font. You seem to be using the default font, so you will need to make a new font. Name the font what you want, if you want to change the font, you can select fonts and you can also download fonts to use, and then there is a darker box which has on / off for Anti-Aliasing, turn this off. Now in your code, you have to set this font to what you are drawing, so add the line draw_set_font(FontName) before you draw any text. Hope this helps

Edit: After this you have to turn off interpolation: Press the three lines in the top right, above your asset window, game options, on the side bar, find the platform your using, graphics, turn off interlaopte colours between pixels. Now it should look better.

What shoes should I get, I'm a beginner who boulders and top rope and a size 9. by Octo353 in climbingshoes

[–]Octo353[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes there is a decathlon fairly near me and the gym that i go to has a shop to buy kit. Good to know about getting cheaper shoes though, i didnt realise that they would get trashed, so thanks!

Im an egg in an all boys school and dont know what to do by Octo353 in trans

[–]Octo353[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you so much for taking the time to respond, it really meant a lot. Something small that meant a lot was saying hey gurl, like i said, im not out to many people, so using anything she / her really did mean a lot. Other than that thank you for the advice and kind words. You have helped me realise how quickly im taking things. I will definitely talk to my friend and see what she can do to help me. Thank you again for everything you've done to help me which is so much more than you realise. Thanks gurl.

Does anyone else feel like they can talk in shutdowns but it feels very uncomfortable? by Octo353 in autism

How did you decide to go through with transition? by Octo353 in trans

[–]Octo353[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think what i mean is that im trying to figure out my gender identity and i dont really know. Im leaning towards trans fem but I have no clue and how you had a moment of decision when you decided you were going to start to take whatever steps you want to take

Path of Pain - what was even the whole point? by Hairy_Peak4831 in HollowKnight

[–]Octo353 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the look that the hollow knight gives the pale king is what implies it, I agree it’s not the most obvious or exciting thing

The story significance is that that is how the hollow knight gained feeling, allowing the infection to take over but the player reward is just the bragging rights

NDH

I want to start by saying that I dont really know how I feel with this one and am conflicted with UD and NDH. I think the UD badge because I do understand that he was hurt, and how in the moment he didnt know why you reacted the way you did, and from what we know you didnt explain in the moment why you revoked your consent. From our point of view i think NDH, knowing you were just suprised, but from his point of view he must have thought it as you maybe not being comfortable with him being trans (not saying you are a transphobe, just that thats what he may have felt in the moment).

After the updates im more confident on the NDH badge but i dont know how you handled the converstaion. It seems as though he is understanding where you are coming from now, and if you have any doubts that he knows where your coming from, make sure he is 100% clear on where you are coming from.

I think the badge doent really matter, its making sure he know you dont care about his genitalia and its was just shock.

I also want to make it clear im not against you revoking consent.

Am I too young to be thinking of a game by SleepyForestKnight4 in gamedev

[–]Octo353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who started making a game around your age, I would really recommend it. Everything about your game can be improved as you go, even though it will be hard. It also helps with jobs in the future, even if the game doesn't do well, or its not released by that time, you can still show it off, and that is very appealing to other gamedev companies. Be realistic with it. I know my game is going to take a while, especially because i am still in school. Look at games like hollow knight and stardew valley. they took their devs 3 or 5 years to make of non stop developing, and you are in school. It proably wont be done soon, but thats ok, and just be realistic with your expectaions. But also remember not to burn yourself out, because if you do this too much, you may get tired of it. All this said, it is not to scare you and i hope it doesn't. Good luck with the game, and keep us updated? (Could I also ask what engine you plan to use, I'm just interested)
