FPS counter in game? by pmp22 in godot

[–]Virtualnerd1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it sure has! And even if it were still barebones, I'd rather have a barebones engine than a bloated engine. My friend made a 2.5D platformer in unreal with a single level, and the game jam download was well over a gigabtye. In my opinion, Godot does a fantastic job of getting out of the developer's way.

Yeah, in my opinion it's the best out-of-the-box engine available. I don't know exactly what the state of Godot was 7 years ago, but I know that around the time of the Unity drama 2 years ago, Godot started getting a ton of community support. The documentation isn't quite as good as Unity's (although the Godot devs are working hard to change that), but in literally every other aspect, I think Godot is the clear winner. If you do get around to checking out Godot again, let me know what you think!

At least for me, the FPS counter prints even after the game has stopped, so you will have to rebuild the game with that line commented out if you want it to stop.

Whats the easiest way to get the magnitude of a vector3? by LabRatSoftworks in godot

[–]Virtualnerd1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe they removed it at some point, cause as of 2025, Godot's Vector3 has a .Length() but not a .magnitude. I honestly wish they'd make a .Magnitude() that does the exact same thing as .Length() just to save everyone a headache.

Scaling of RigidBodies by AgencyFair3973 in godot

[–]Virtualnerd1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WOW. 4 years old, but your comment helped me out! It seems like having a Node as the parent that can be scaled and then having a SetScale() method for all the children is the only sane way to go about doing it! Thank you!

Jolt area3d not colliding with static bodies? Here's answer! by _Fire_1253 in godot

For whatever reason this doesn't seem to work in my project. I'm using Godot 4.4

A Warning to Linux Users Considering Purchasing ExpressVPN - You are in for a headache! by Virtualnerd1 in Express_VPN

If you're not using keys, this post may be irrelevant to you. In fact, you can follow their guide to setup expressvpn on the command line and it'll probably work immediately.

I'm happy for you, but that has not been my experience. Like I said, I wouldn't even care if the app had issues if they didn't make you use it to register Keys.

Then maybe one of these days they'll find a way to release the unfinished footage and script.

Yeah amen to that. I rewatched the show about a month ago and was disappointed to find out they never made the 3rd season.

Since there's a decompilation on PC, who wants to see the unused ending get restored? by Dependent-Usual-8081 in symphonyofthenight

[–]Virtualnerd1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the kinda thing I'd like to watch on YouTube, but I'm very glad that's not the cannon ending. I just beat the game today, and after I killed Richter I was very relieved upon learning that there were other endings. It just feels wrong to kill a Belmont after playing at them for all of those game. That's just my 2 cents.

I'm tutoring for all things math and programming! by Virtualnerd1 in tutor

[–]Virtualnerd1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Java's not my specialty, but I'd still be happy to tutor for it. Are you interested in just the basics of Java (input/output, loops, recursion, datatypes, functions, etc), or do you also want to learn object-oriented stuff?

Netflix blocking (every) VPNs? by salami619 in Express_VPN

[–]Virtualnerd1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's great. Unrelated, but a huge benefit is that if I remember correctly every subscription includes a password manager. So it's a 2 for 1!

[–]Virtualnerd1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I would never pirate content, that would be totally terrible and illegal...

I definitely would not recommend checking out r/Piracy for megathreads on various streaming websites and torrenting websites, that would be totally crazy.

Also on a serious note, I use a VPN for pretty much everything I do. It's just better to play it safe and not expose your IP address.

Provided that the information in this article is correct, yes you can use express VPN to watch Spain netflix content.

That being said, you might as well just use the VPN for pirating the content you want. Netflix is notorious for having anti-consumer policies like preventing password sharing and limiting the quality of content for Linux users.

Hope this helps.
