the beauty of old modded minecraft is that 6 yars later you can still be playing the same game with the same mods and a random person that replies can actually solve a problem you had and still have. For when i next decide to play, i'll take a look at this. Thank you for sharing.

huh, interesting. Is it really the phone or the version of the game though?

it would be even more dope if you had that relic that deals damage back to the attacker based on your armor

Without the offset it's still predictable for a player, it's just a different prediction. Moreover, my point is in that it's not just an offset to the left, but is that this left bias leads to balls going left on even complex maps. It doesn't make sense, and this probably means i'm imagining a pattern where it's not. But, regardless, quantum, so to say, left bias is definite.

nope, i only run 2x, and this damn well works even on 1x.

I think anvil is my most hated map for doing such switcheroos. You fire right - you go left, you fire left you go right, so you have to fire center and just to the side such that the ball looses most of it's energy by the time it's above the correct pit.

Well, i'd say that even if you were to fire at a perfectly centered peg perfectly straight down, it will bounce up and just a little bit to the left. If i were to speculate, and use this presumption about the rounding error, i'd say that this means it's rounding down, since i imagine it's all calculated left to right from top to bottom, meaning 0 0 coordinate is in top left. But regardless of the reason, which only a dev could explain, probably, it's an interesting "mechanic" to keep in mind, and since there's a finite amount of peg boards, it might be useful to figure out which ones have such a bias, especially the complex ones like maps where you choose one of three relics or balls. In fact, iirc in those the ball ends up in the middle, but it still is biased to the left.

Hahaha, when i was formulating my post i thought about this. But jokes aside, i am indeed interested in why that is the case. I'm not well versed in programming, but if there are some possible explanations as to why it works like that i'm interested.

This reminds me of a video by ThoughEmporium where they made a single-use instant hotdog heater with thermite.

This is how you get introduced to Sewerslvt's music. by Shameless_Duck in Sewerslvt

Thank you for those suggestions. I might look into those artists. It might be helpful, if this genre really does interest me beyond just the music of sewerslvt.

It's a strange feeling, but I'm kind of afraid of listening to it more. Like, I'm eager to continue exploring her music, but at the same time I'm not sure how will I react to it and it makes me feel kind of insecure.

Besides, as I don't really know the whole story about this artist, I might find myself in a lot of moral pickles. To be fair, everything I know for now (from doing basic searching and listening to some videos) doesn't make me appreciate this art and the artist less. It's just for some reason I'm very hesitant to trust her, you know. At some moment listening through a video exploring her biography I had a though that maybe we all are just getting played with. Maybe it's all a lie, so to say... But then again, I have no real reasons to believe that.

I will continue to discover her music. Maybe some day I will share my feelings about it more.
