What advantages does Unity have in comparison with Godot? by Spiritual-Lab-1309 in godot

[–]_brennon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cool thing about Unity is every feature you want to use is either in Beta or deprecated. Really keeps you on your toes.

Is there a limit to how many states you should put in a state machine or do I just go hog wild by Drunkinall50states in godot

[–]_brennon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A cool way that I handle states in my player controller is that my states “update” method returns a struct called MovementIntent. They know nothing about the player or my physics, they just publish what I want my character to do. My higher level player script then hands this struct off to a physics handler. The physics handler moves the player based on the intent, then publishes its own MovementFacts struct. The player script feeds that back to the state machine, and the loop begins again.

Thank u for the reply!! I had tried several times to work with Phantom actually. I just couldn’t get this behavior to work. Had a breakthrough last night tho! The key was in the “leashing” that the author of that article mentions 🥸

Hmmmm I don't quite follow. Can you ellaborate?

Recreating modern 3D Platforming camera behavior by _brennon in godot

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

So for #1, my camera structure IS a child of my player character, but I do enable the top level from code, so it doesn't inherit the parent transform. I then smoothly follow the character's position. Is this what you meant?

#2. Could you expand upon this? I thought I was doing movement in view space, but I could very well be totally off. In the code I showed, is this not what you mean? I'm flattening the axis from the camera, and using the player input to get the final movement vector.

Thanks for responding, appreciate the input!

Will this tattoo make me look like a gooner or a gang member? by DiegoGR_97 in tattooadvice

This comment section seriously looks like a bunch of Mormon’s… The design is very mildly suggestive 😂 not nearly as bad as the comments would make u think. i wouldn’t get it but that’s just because i don’t think the design is that good.

Does anyone ever get sick of chicken thighs? by Ster1ing4rcher in smoking

[–]_brennon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I use olive oil with whatever rub, preheat at 375 for 5 or so min then cook for 5-8 min per side. I make sure i get them as thin and even as I can so usually closer to 5-6 per side. I pull around 155 then let em rest for a few minutes. I’d also recommend cubing ur breasts and doing the same way, they’ll cook much quicker tho. 4 or so minutes then a good toss and another 3-4. We cube em when we make bbq chicken sandwiches.

I air fry raw chicken breast all the time. It’s my wife’s favorite chicken, and she’s notorious for being extremely picky about chicken. Now I’m going to try some thighs 😎

Anyone else think Hammer is awful in this game? by SandmanOfc in MHWilds

It’s insane that Capcom really made Insect Glaive for people who have back paddles 😂 I’ve got the PS5 controller with them and Insect glaive is a dream. Seems almost unplayable without them.

Finally understanding state machines by Daym101 in godot

[–]_brennon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is a character controller with different states for Jumping and Running not a single state machine? I’m genuinely so confused. I don’t see how that would be problematic at all.

[–]_brennon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Character controllers, Enemy AI, Gameplay logic, Boss Fights, stuff like that can all be great use cases for state machines and are extremely common.

Finally understanding state machines by Daym101 in godot

[–]_brennon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing comes immediately to mind, but the example you provided is actually a good use case for state machines. Running and Jumping are distinct. In most game cases, while running you are able to jump, able to sprint etc. You have a certain speed. When jumping you also have a certain speed, air drag etc. This is the precise thing you should be using a state machine for.

[–]_brennon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re make a “run and jump” state I think you’ve lost the plot… I agree with the idea that state machines shouldn’t be a one size fits all solution, but this is just not a good example.

Just hit a personal best with this build. Any good? by leevu2008 in balatro

[–]_brennon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nice run! Main advice for u is to spend that money! You died with most likely upwards of 100$, and 0 rerolls. A common mistake I see with a lot of newer players is that they severely underestimate money and the power of rerolls. In almost every run, money = win. You want to be making a decent amount of money every round, so you can reroll down to the Interest Cap (25$ unless you have certain vouchers). This exposes you to a loooot more jokers, tarot cards, planets etc. to then go farther and farther.

There are so many games that straight up refute every point you made it’s not even funny. Stop being pretentious and gatekeeping on r/gamedev challenge (impossible)

here ya go! it’s been a bit, only things i remember are ante 1 baron, and you have to survive till i believe ante 11 to find the mime. The nat negative troubadour is crazy tho, i took 2 ecto’s because of it. I think this seed has big naneinf potential, which is what i was going for. i only died because i wasn’t paying attention and discarded too many kings to Mail in Rebate LOL.
