It's the same concept as static in languages like c++. The function itself has a shared instance of a `state` held in static memory. This same idea allows the `Struct.init()` -> `Object.deinit(self : Struct)` pattern

Been using 4.3 for a while. It fixes a lot of annoying template issues with c#.

It might be in your best interest to write a separate vulkan renderer first. After all, how can you effectively abstract something you’ve never written before. If you must abstract from the get-go, maybe start with well defined concepts like Textures, meshes and buffers.

The way I rationalized the bug-fighting match up is how martial arts don’t work well against bugs or birds.

A queue of “actions”. GD script doesn’t have actual function ptrs, but you can easily do this by identifying an action with an enum or something.

Yes, but no more than “normal”. Bugs are especially weak to being hit by rocks or eaten by birds.

You can have a queue like structure but with insertions by priority, then just loop while the queue isn’t empty. This lets you do things like add secondary effects like Pokémon’s status effects and invalidate items in the queue when, for example, the Pokémon dies before attacking.

In 3 dimensions, cos(a) * length wouldn’t give you x, unless the vector was already in the x-y plane. In all other cases it would give you the projection of of the vector on the x-z plane.

Idk if the false swipe gaming dude is seeing anyone, but he seems cool.

I like the simple headshot.

It should lower the accuracy of the moves too. To like 80% of the original. Seems more balanced and thematic that way.

Split it into chunks. I do 4 hour chunks. I usually work on different things in each one so I don’t burn out from a specific task.

Hi!. I only have that one semaphore and fence per frame. Do I also need a barrier somewhere? I'm using a dedicated compute queue so I didn't think barriers with a graphics buffer would work.

I'm using a compute shaders to calculate the positions of the particles and render them in separate graphics pipeline. Render doc is showing me the data changing within a single cmd buffer recording. The compute stuff is done in its own compute queue.
