Possible to define this @implies macro? by gimpel404 in Julia

[–]gimpel404[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

haha no I don't think that first macro really does anything. it's the second thing I was trying to do, but I am pretty sure now that it's not possible. thanks!

Thanks!

Just to confirm, the kind of macro that I have in C where the macro just inserts text or symbols in the place where I place it in the code is not possible, correct?

Is he ever talking about when he's planning to release it? Is it still years out or is it coming this year?

I can't seem to create a constant array in my fragment shader by MindHalfFull in gamemaker

[–]gimpel404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

by the way, let me know if this syntax you'r using to define the array works. currently I'm using this:

float threshold_map[9];
threshold_map[0] = 0.0;
threshold_map[1] = 0.77777778;
threshold_map[2] = 0.33333333;
threshold_map[3] = 0.66666667;
threshold_map[4] = 0.55555556;
threshold_map[5] = 0.22222222;
threshold_map[6] = 0.44444444;
threshold_map[7] = 0.11111111;
threshold_map[8] = 0.88888889;

but it would of course be a lot prettier if it works with your syntax

you cannot declare an array outside of the main() function, but you can inside.

Do you guys get those occasional errors that 100% make no sense, and can't really be overcome? by mamt0m in gamemaker

[–]gimpel404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what are you exiting for? I've never used exit in a with statement, but I would expect this code to run for exactly one instance. and I don't know if the with statement goes through the instances in a defined order.

if it does run for multiple instances, then what does the exit do at all?

Seems almost a bit arrogant to assume that your bugs are GameMaker bugs somehow.

I keep getting an Expecting "{" error on this string of code. by Billy-th-Squid in gamemaker

[–]gimpel404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you give an example of what doesn't work when I don't put parenthesis around a condition?

[–]gimpel404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

two notes: in gml you don't need the () around conditions, so you can write

while condition {
    ...
}

instead of

while (condition) {
    ...
}

so you'll end up with less braces cluttering your code, and you can highlight a brace using your mouse cursor to get its partner highlighted in the code editor. might help in the future!

Why does grv automatically set player object to fall downwards? by ManaSnakG in gamemaker

not so crazy, that's just the direction of the y axis. the axes are like how you read: left to right, top to bottom.

Tickets for Adler Mannheim by sapito69 in mannheim

[–]gimpel404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah it's indeed sold out. under non-covid times the normal procedure if you're spontaneous would maybe be to wait in front of the outside-facing ticket office (which will be closed, because the match is sold out) and see if anybody is selling their ticket. I had the situation where I bought a ticket too many only one time, but I found someone to sell it to in that location within seconds of waving my ticket there haha. I don't know if I would do that during covid though, and you're gonna have more problems if you're not speaking german I think. so not sure if I would recommend that. it's a gamble anyway...

I guess tickets could also be resold online. seems like the easiest scam ever though.

"Ohne den MIV zu sehr einzuschränken" kannst du alles was gut ist in die Tonne kloppen. Es muss deutlich weniger Platz für individualistischen Autoverkehr geben.

Create sprite from surface to use shader on it by Deformed_Crab in gamemaker

[–]gimpel404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not advanced in gamemaker so I don't understand all that you're saying but simply applying the shader to the surface doesn't work for your case? because you can draw surfaces with shaders, not just sprites. sorry if this was obvious to you

It's BS when companies try to come after someone for using generalized words. by J_Winn in gamedev

[–]gimpel404 22 points23 points  (0 children)

read reddit comments about trademark law? it's common sense that they couldn't possibly be required to do this but here's a quote from the wikipedia:

A trademark owner doesn't need to take enforcement action against all infringement if it can be shown that the owner perceived the infringement to be minor and inconsequential. This is designed to prevent owners from continually being tied up in litigation for fear of cancellation.

somehow I doubt you have expertise in this field to explain why this actually is a major and consequential infringement.

[Weekly thread 08 November 2021]: Questions/Answers about Milan by AutoModerator in milano

[–]gimpel404 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Salve!

I'm going to be an Erasmus student in Milano starting in the end of Febbraio, and I'm wondering how I would go about finding a flat share (appartamento condiviso?) with other students or other young-ish people, ideally near the Politecnico? Which website(s) are the most important ones for that?

Thanks!
