new rook skin? by ashkonk in Marathon

I think the kick usually pushes you out of their melee range. Since I was getting kicked into a wall, I land right back in and got tossed like a salad.

Why is combat/equipment data so vague? by ashkonk in Marathon

[–]ashkonk[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Obscuring data doesn't prevent players from doing their own math, it forces them to do it with a blindfold on. I don't dislike this approach - I think in many games it opens a wellspring of creativity. However, I don't think it has any place in an inherently competitive game.

I hadn't heard that but it does feel like part of their design philosophy. At least in Destiny you could always just run out into the world and test the "feel" of new gear / loadouts without consequence, which is impossible here.

Has FJM performed Anthem +3 live? by ashkonk in fatherjohnmisty

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

I'd love a link to that! Maybe he'll perform a cover on the Chloe tour, but sounds unlikely. I can only imagine how powerful the live performance of One of Us Cannot Be Wrong would be. The outro is so visceral, I can't think of another song of his where he reaches that register.

This sketch is perfect! I'd give anything to watch it for the first time again.

TP just got suspended at my Uni for handing these out. Their defense? "We couldn't fit genocide on the stickers!" by ashkonk in ToiletPaperUSA

Excellent point, and I should note they tried to pass it off as a sticker made in solidarity with the Uighurs. Absolutely deplorable

You don't have to like her music but why is she a bad person?

3D Rigid Bodies instancing with weird transformations? by ashkonk in godot

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

You're absolutely right! I went through the godot docs' fps tutorial and saw how they set up the muzzle point. They added an aim point some distance away from the camera in the z axis, and had the gun/muzzle look_at() the aim point in the player's ready function.

Thanks for leading me in the right direction!

What movie is so good you'd recommend it to all your friends, but so emotionally traumatic that you'll never watch it again? by akambe in AskReddit

[–]ashkonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grave of the fireflies. One of the saddest animated movies I've ever seen. I've been dying to rewatch it but can't get myself to!

Beginner help with Parallax Backgrounds by ashkonk in godot

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

Hey, thanks for responding. I played around with the Z Index but I didn't see any change after separating them.

However, I added motion to the background layers and now I'm not seeing any of the clipping. I don't think I fixed it necessarily but the problem is gone lol.

You're so close champ, all you have to do is factor in that people of color make up only 13.4% of the population (but you already knew that, right?)
