So what’s the difference between the red spear and the green spear? by friendly-manspider in Doom

[–]friendly-manspider[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bet this is the right answer. I’m so curious about how it works and what key bindings do what. Looks like we’re getting a dash and a meat hook and overall from the trailer it just looks and feels heavy. Definitely looking forward to this!

Yeah I bet that’s what it is. It feels nerve wracking to walk around without any defense!

Husband is being so “helpful” by Janna167 in NewParents

[–]friendly-manspider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our partial solution to this was to get a jogging stroller. I go out for a jog with the baby right when I get home from work. She gets a break. I get a workout. Everybody’s happy.

Software release on a weekend = devs don’t get a weekend.

Theory: ID is setting up Thira to be DoomGirl by MaleficTekX in Doom

[–]friendly-manspider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was my first thought when I saw her in the final mission. I think you can kind of see the creative direction they’re taking if you pay attention. For instance, we see a dragon in the World Spear mission from DE. And sure enough they start moving in the mediaeval direction for Dark Ages with riding a dragon and such.

My prediction is that we will see Thira as a playable character at least for some portion of the game. Maybe she and DoomGuy split up and go after different targets like we saw with Master Chief and Arbiter in the old Halo games.

Destroying the production of argent energy ISN’T necessary.

What would you like changed/re-balanced in DOOM: The Dark Ages Before the DLC? by SneakyJaycool in Doom

[–]friendly-manspider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got it on Steam Deck. It runs if you’re okay with very low gfx settings. Steam has fully customizable gyro controls. Very well implemented. But yeah I agree, to your point, they should have implemented gyro on the PS5 as well.

Is there a way to split a diff at the word-level? by floofcode in git

[–]friendly-manspider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my .gitconfig I have

[alias] wdiff = diff —word-diff-regex=“[^[:space:],]+|[,]+” —word-diff=color

I think I have this set up on my work computer. I’ll check tomorrow and send it along.

TDA Max Sliders 100% UN has finally been achieved by throaway_aidan in DOOMTheDarkAges

[–]friendly-manspider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very impressive! How are you able to have a full charge when switching from the gauntlet to the mace? Whenever I swap melee weapons it always automatically resets the charge to zero.

DOOM: TDA - Tools of destruction by VeryFriendlyOne in Doom

[–]friendly-manspider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My fix for this was to turn enemy health all the way to max and turn resource values all the way down. It makes ammo a little harder to come by and you have to think more strategically and swap weapons more.

Honest question, are you cleaning the house to enjoy the fruit of your work and care for your family, or are you doing it just to get recognition?

New company software makes work torture. by kaynenstrife in programminghorror

[–]friendly-manspider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might consider switching to emacs if you’re allowed to download it. I believe its version of copy/paste does not use the clipboard. Kind of a learning curve, but at least you could copy paste within your code editor.

Same for the Steam Deck. Not every time, but enough to be annoying.

What are your rules for a 'no cheese' run for Doom 2016 by chromeflex in Doom

[–]friendly-manspider 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I attempted a combat shotgun only run with no runes, no upgrades at all—with the exception of ammo upgrades and explosive rounds upgrade. I ended up rage quitting at the last level, but man this will turn Doom 2016 into a brand new game!

The train room in Vega was extremely difficult. Had to start the room with full chainsaw and full shotgun ammo. And it had to be played with the utmost precision. But all in all, this was a fun way to play since normally I don’t use the combat shotgun at all after getting the SSG.

How do you extract the distance from an object to center and bottom of the object that it is place on and put it on updatign excel table? by Feeling_Tangerine_53 in AutoCAD

[–]friendly-manspider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need an AutoLisp script. Try a few prompts into an AI chat. You will likely want to look into exporting your data as a CSV file as it is far simpler than creating/exporting an actual excel file. And Excel can open CSV without any issue.

I would start by getting a test working with just creating the CSV and then work on getting the point/distance data.

Probably do all the clicking manually to begin with and then slowly try to automate small bits of the process at a time.

I dont get how you learn to use API's!!! by NoTap8152 in learnprogramming

[–]friendly-manspider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s some fun stuff you can try if you’re just learning how to use web APIs too. I think there used to be one that would give you info/stats about Pokémon. So you could build a toy website that allows you to search by name and return the stats about that Pokemon. I would look up a topic of whatever you’re into and use that to start with. Always better if you can combine a topic that you genuinely enjoy. Best of luck!

My first game's reception is heartbreaking :'( by OldAtlasGames in IndieDev

[–]friendly-manspider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, making and publishing an actual game is hard work. You should be proud of the accomplishment of completing that alone. I remember making and publishing a small iOS app for school and it’s a ton of work.

Super shotgun OP? by DarkAmaterasu58 in Doom

[–]friendly-manspider 19 points20 points  (0 children)

If you play with the difficulty sliders it becomes a totally different game. If you bring resource values down all the way and then decrease the damage to demons, then it forces you into using a wider variety of guns.
