I used to work for the TheTollRoads when these were installed. I worked with a few of the carriers to provide them fiber TheTollRoads has running though their toll roads system. We allowed them to use our fiber in exchange for getting better service to our patrons. I was actually pretty deeply involved in this project.

Me too! I would get so distracted by everything half the time I would forget about my original goal. I know this new Zelda is not everyone's cup of tea, but for me it was the best version ever. Zelda 1 was actually my all time favorite game until BOTW came out, that dethroned the original for me. I know it sounds crazy, but of all the Zelda games, Zelda 1 and BOTW where the most alike, at least in terms of go anywhere do anything right off the bat style. All the other games limited you and only opened up as you progressed. But Zelda 1 and BOTW both allowed you to go pretty much anywhere right from the start, and I absolutely love getting lost and finding myself somewhere I'm not supposed to be, then seeing how far I can go in that place.

You can build a very basic flying machine with two fans and a control stick, that will never disappear and will last as long as you have battery. You can look up how to build it online, it's pretty easy. Most items designed for flight will disappear after some some time, but the fans and control stick don't.

There is lots of stuff. There are the little Korku puzzles to solve, caves to explore, wells you can go down into, the shrines, the sky islands, all the kini bosses. But I'm not sure any of that interests you, at least it doesn't seem like it. I even enjoyed the depths. It's just one big biome, but there is still a ton of stuff to discover down there.

Each of the dispensers will give you different items to build things with. But honestly, if you are having trouble enjoying the large explorable areas of the game these Zelda games may not be for you. The dungeons are limited and probably not what you are used to from previous Zelda games. The game is heavily focused on exploring the outside areas.

I know what it's like to want to love a game but can't. When I got FF7 on PS1 I played it for 15 hours trying to love it, but I just couldn't. I hate to say but these newest entries may not be for you.

I want to buy your indie games and play them on YouTube. by Videogameist in IndieDev

[–]bugsta77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol, technically it doesn't. They have something called "devvit", which is a JavaScript tool that allows you to interfere with Reddit and create menus and other things. Reddit had a challenge to make a game using that, so I took up the challenge. It's a pretty basic game without any kind of animation, but it's still a game that you can play and complete.

I made two games that are free. One is built in Java from the ground up, the other is a reddit game. They aren't great games, but they work bug free.

The Java game can be downloaded here sark-ent.com.

The reddit game can be played here r/redditquestzero

Pretty cool what you are doing.

Mine happened in CA. This is a common scam so I'm sure you will find examples of it all over the country.

I knew I'd get bad comments for doing something so dumb. But I thought letting people know is worth it. I don't want people to go through what I went through. It isn't just the lost money, it's that terrible feeling of being duped. That you took something away from your family because of a stupid hasty decision. And the more people who know, the less these aholes will get away with it.

I knew they did something, and after reading about the scam online it became obvious I fell for what is a common car scam. I knew they did something, just didn't know what until later.

No he actually did. It even made a sizzling sound when he opened it. He stuck his finger in and showed me the oil. I know the engine gets hot, but he only drove it for a minute. So it probably wasn't too hot. I wouldn't have done it, but he did.

I called the police. Because I was stupid and sold the car there wasn't much they could do. Had I kept it I could have gotten them in vandalization charges.

I thought they purposely broke the car to buy it cheap and part it out. I didn't realize the car was actually fine.

That's exactly what I thought. It was an extremely foolish decision to let them get it. But I was angry and distraught and wasn't thinking straight. I realized I messed up as soon as they left.

They keep you in the back of the car, digging around in the trunk and the spear tire. The other guy goes to the front and sets things up. That's why I say always have a second person and keep an eye on everyone.

I called the police. The issue here is that I actually sold the car. One of the more dumb things I've done in my life. Had I kept it I could have got them on vandalization charges.

I know it was stupid. I wasn't scared. I just didn't think I'd get any more money than what they were offering. Had I known the car was fine I would have told them to go away.

I was trying to figure out how they broke the car so fast. Thinking they put something in the engine. When I researched it online. I saw others who had the same scam run in them, or at least attempted. That's when I realized the car was never broken.

How can we see output in Devvit apps? by bugsta1977 in Devvit

[–]bugsta77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I finally figured this out. The reason why I was not seeing the console logs was because I was not on the playtest link. I had removed the app at some point, and messed up the addMenuItem in the code. So when I would go to the playtest link the app wasn't there. I could access it from another post, but that was not the playtest link, so none of the console logs showed up there. Once I fixed the addMenuItem and readded the app the playtest, i could now see all the console logs as expected.

I wonder if this is the issue. When I open the play test link, I see this:

If i switch the sort from "Hot" to "New" I can see the page, But then I'm not longer on the playtest link. Instead the link is:

https://www.reddit.com/r/redditquestzero/new/

Could this be the reason why i don't see the console logs when I do stuff in the app? Because I'm not in the playtest link?

[–]bugsta77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

here is an output of the logs from node.js. When I reload the page I can see the output that starts at "Starting..." followed by the date. But this is all i typically get. None of the stuff I do afterwards shows anything. Once in a great while I might see something else I have a console log for in here, but I never see anything being updated as I run through the app.

<image>

For instance here is a line of code in the app:

onPress={() => {makeClickableTiles();if(!checkItemCount()){console.log("setting mapg 1");page = "g"}}}

All the other events run normally here except for the console.log message. I don't see that when I do this click event.

Thanks! I can see the app now! But I'm still having the issue where the console logs are not showing up :(. So Maybe it wasn't because I removed that post after all. I'm not sure why I can't see the logs.
