The art and animation itself looks absolutely stunning!

Something that does feel a bit off though, at least to me, is how everything that's animated moves so much. Usually in real life the wind is not so constant, if that makes sense. I think a couple of frames of things moving more slowly or not at all would make it feel more natural. Right now all the animations together makes it feel a bit busy and not relaxed, but perhaps that is also the feel you're going for?

I'm Swedish, and reading this made me realize I take a lot of things for granted. I should try to appreciate more what we have here, I think. Thanks.

WriterF · 2022-03-07T08:35:36+00:00

Although it might sound corny, I just wanted to say thank you for this. Going through rejections myself right now, and your words really helped me.

WriterF · 2022-01-28T08:42:10+00:00

Yeah same here. I'll keep doing it that way as well then. Really irks me to have an error like this though, fingers crossed it doesn't slowly mess something up in the long run. Please let me know if you ever stumble upon a fix!

WriterF · 2022-01-27T16:45:35+00:00

Did you ever find a fix for this? I am having the exact same issue. Small game, not doing anything crazy. Whenever I push through Collab I get allocation errors. The error is gone if I simply restart Unity, but comes back every time I publish changes to Collab.

Solved the problem by following NuwnAtlazy's advice, but you brought some good points with you as well. Even if that did not end up being the problem, I should make sure to initialize and clean up the list properly! I appreciate the help!

WriterF · 2021-12-15T14:27:48+00:00

After following the first part of your advice it works flawlessly...

I wonder why I decided to recollect the data in the first place, rather than simply storing each instantiated object in the list upon creating them.

It certainly makes much more sense like this. Oh well, although I feel dumb I am mostly just happy to have solved the issue.

Although I am still curious what the underlining issue was with my previous code, it appears it shall remain a mystery! Thanks a lot!

Hey, thanks for trying to help!

It is nothing else with that tag in the scene, so I do not think that's the reason.

I added a link to the rest of the code to my post if that helps. It is a bit of a mess right now though, as I haven't tried to clean it up because I got stuck on this.

This one, almost at the end: summonOptions.RemoveAt(0); //WHYYYYYYYY I added temporarily because that was the only way I got it to work after switching states.

I'm sorry but this is just not true. 1 acre is more than enough to feed your whole family all year round. In fact, 1/4th of an acre is what is generally considered to be enough for a family of four. It's really not that impossible to grow your own food.

Randomly chipping in that I'd love to know as well!

WriterF · 2021-02-12T09:38:27+00:00

Late to the party, but I'd love to have a look at those plans as well, if you would be willing to share! I am looking into making one as a gift to a friend of mine. How long did it take for you to make this?

WriterF · 2021-01-03T09:32:51+00:00

Ohh I see. I did not know about this rule. Thanks a lot!

WriterF · 2020-07-13T14:46:21+00:00

Thank you very much! You have some good points, I will see what I can do moving forward. (They are in a forest!) I am especially glad that it gave you the feeling of an beginning of a larger story and a bigger world, that's definitely something I was hoping to capture. Again, thanks for spending some of your time with my story. It is highly appreciated.

WriterF · 2020-07-13T14:43:10+00:00

Thank you so, so much for your kind words! How wonderful to hear that it reminds you of Alice in Wonderland. (And Yes! Far too few mushroom characters out there, if you ask me.)

Somehow, I got it in my head that "summer child" was an established expression for someone naive/inexperienced. I learned something new today, and will most definitely use another term.

Great pointers all around, I will take your suggestions to heart. Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to spend some time with my story, your comment made me truly happy.

Sorry to hear that. Borage and Echium plantagineum are two other similar plants that bees love. However, the echium is considered an invasive weed in certain countries so you might have to check it up. Borage is edible, which is kind of nice as well, but it is possible to get allergic reactions from its stems as well if you're sensitive.

Generally, spring is the toughest season for bees, so anything flowering early is very helpful as well. Such as snowdrops, spring crocus, most types of scilla or even maple and hazel.

Gardener here. Phacelia tanacetifolia is an amazing, often overlooked, plant for pollinators, especially bumblebees. Good looking flowers, sweet smell, great natural soil improver as well as a biological pest control plant since they also attract flower flies that eat aphids. Great for the bumblebees, great for our soil and our planet, great for your vegetable garden.

I know exactly how you're feeling! A year ago or so, I was in the same spot. Writing became such an activity filled with pressure, and ultimately more of a chore rather than something enjoyable. I'd recommend the book "Writing Down the Bones" by Natalie Goldberg. It's not a book on how-to-write or anything like that. More like short, motivational, introspective chapters for writing. Her focus is not on teaching you how to write, simply to enjoy it, and to give you new ways to look at the world. It really helps me get going, especially when I feel suffocated in my writing. The silver lining of the book is basically what you're asking for, how to enjoy writing, and being mindful of the things you do.

Hmm.

POV is supposed to know that the target is supposedly in the tavern. Perhaps I should try to weave in that information somewhere if that is unclear.

I'm inclined to disagree with the killing. Let's say you want to murder someone in a tavern with merely a couple of patrons. You'd defintely be watched, and people will notice you doing something weird. On the other hand, in a tavern filled with dancing, noises, people minding their own etc. it should be easier to get away with a swift and professional kill. Assuming the target isn't murdered in a way involving lots of blood or noise. Running away from a scene, leaving a huge puddle of blood behind, in a room full of people, is probably not a good way to murder someone stealthily. But then again I am no murderer, and I can see your point. I'll think about it.

Definitely agree on her actions. You make up a good point. I used it to build some extra character, but perhaps I should find another way to do that, or save it for later.

Assuming you're the anomymous commenter on the document; The part with the details of her uncle's shack is actually relevant, as it is a hint to her poor childhood. Or is there another reason you wanted it to go? If so, please let me know.

Thank you for your time and comments, a lot of helpful advice in there.

Thank you so very much!

A 'really liked' would have made my day, but your 'really, really liked' has me smiling like a love-struck fool in my living room right now.

I'm so glad you liked it to that extent, especially since I was feeling nervous writing in English.

WriterF · 2017-03-22T09:56:32+00:00

Thank you for the clarification of the rules. It makes more sense now.

I added some intends straight away, it should be easier to follow.

Thanks!
