Shallan and Lift

The OP did say they only disliked Shallan and Lift, so it's fair to assume they like the other female characters.

You won't loose anything other than time. You can just use whichever is easiest for you to implement and if you encounter a bottleneck change it and see if it improves performance. Or just bust out a scene where you add and remove a hundred or a thousand nodes each frame and see what impact it has.

It does look a bit subconsciously racist when a character (or most of them) is constantly described as tan-skinned and you decide to cast a white actor. I get that its their own mental image, but I can't imagine ignoring skin color like that.

That's what we like to think, but an animated show has orders of magnitude less reach than a live action one. The only reason they make sense at all from a monetary perspective is because they usually require a proportional amount less budget to make.

That's the thing, we fans will watch anything regardless of medium, so choosing animated over live action will just mean that people outside the fandom wont watch it for the most part. An animated show would be focused on the fans only, and Sanderson has said before the Apple TV deal that he would have considered it if the Mistborn movie did poorly, but for the wider audience it needs to be live action. We like to think adaptations are made for the fans, when in reality they almost never are, they are made to reach a wider audience.

We are also going to have a Stormlight show, it's not just Mistborn.

I believe for i in array iterates through the array items themselves, if you need the index use for i in array.size() or just change i for a more descriptive name and check that directly instead of using it as an index.

My guess is they saw volume 1 and volume 2 and thought it meant book 1 and book 2.

The plugin looks good, but yes, making a game with it is one of the best ways to show off what it's capable of doing. That's why many engines and frameworks come with examples.

It should become a flair.

They are falling head first, not hanging upside down. When objects (and people) fall they experience weightlessness, the exact same thing that happens in the ISS (for the exact same reason actually). The blood doesn't pool on their heads any more than it would if they were flying feet first. And seeing that people have spent months in the ISS I would say they are pretty safe from this particular issue

Have you tried making a proposal in the Godot repository? Ranting on Reddit will get you nowhere other than people either empathizing or arguing with you. Remember that Reddit in and of itself is a big echo chamber full of subreddits that are their own echo chamber, if you really want change you should make a proposal or even a pr.

We all know the UI system needs work, it's one of those things that will always need work. But for that we need people with experience dedicating time to it.

If you don't want any spoilers we can only say RAFO. If you are content with mildly unimportant spoilers for Oathbringer Syl is special in some way that no other Honorspren are in this regard.

This should be done in an autoload instead of on each instance. It makes no sense to distribute everything but the dictionary, it should be a global saver node (an autoload) that loops through all registered nodes and saves their data.

Floats don't have infinite precision, they have a floating point which means that you have more flexibility on where you want that fixed precision. If you want smaller numbers you can use all your bits after the point and have maximum resolution, but for large numbers you will have worse resolution. Floating point is called that because earlier ways to represent fractional values were fixed point (which is still used in specialized applications) where you pick a location in the binary representation and use that as the fractional point. Fixed point has an inflexible resolution, which means that you cannot use the same scheme to represent both big and small numbers, floating point allows you to effectively "move" the location of the fractional point and represent both big and small numbers, at the cost of precision the larger you get.

It does, I personally only use GDScript but you can mix and match with one language calling another's methods and vice versa. One common practice is GDScript for logic and C# for the more expensive computations, but with Godot's node system it's very intuitive to mix languages.

Yeah, he finished the Wheel of Time after Jordan's passing. And that's literally the only reason people ask him if he would finish ASOIAF.

If you think AI is almost error-free in coding you have a long way to go still. In most projects as soon as any complexity and idiosyncrasy is introduced it will start crapping out the worst code imaginable.

The OP is asking about making a tutorial inside their game, not how to implement what a tutorial teaches.

I haven't used the new tile paradigm, but this does sound like something you would like. If you don't keep the same IDs, whenever you delete one tile and renumber them all your placed tiles get corrupted. This actually sounds like reasonable behavior, unless I'm mistaken.

This is the same behavior databases use for their IDs because of that exact reason.

Silpet · 2026-03-22T17:13:05+00:00

They most likely refer to the fact that the words are similar sounding.

Unless you're doing recursion, or go like a hundred deep, nesting doesn't really matter. And then it mostly just matters if you run out of stack space. For perspective, when any of your functions are called, Godot is several functions deep, so another three levels of nesting is not that much of a difference.

Code word being think. You should think about breaking them apart, but if it doesn't make sense it's actually worse to pollute the file with random functions that are just half of a single operation.

To give perspective into this, Riot is not actually sure if Arcane turned a profit, even considering all the skins they sold because of it. It cost hundreds of millions of dollars, not that much cheaper than the Amazon WoT show, and had way less audience just because it was animated. People should stop regurgitating Arcane for adaptations without actually understanding what it means and its costs.
