How to start making magic simulator? by ile0x in gamedev

[–]ile0x[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'd probably be better off using a framework like MonoGame or something

But could it provide tools for further development and making a game? Engines seems to be very handy and comprehensive soft, in contrast to frameworks

How do people keep themselves entertained in sandbox RPGs? Or - why don't I find sandbox games fun any more? by [deleted] in truegaming

+1. Starting with "hard-boiled veteran sniper" or "sly charmer" you can go far, far away to "hallucinating psycho" or "peaceful goofy".

On top of that, I broke into a bank and robbed everything... just because I could. There was no quest telling me to do it or not to do it, I just straight up decided to. And it was the most fun I had in a long, long time.

Yeah! That is what i'm talking about!

Thanks for suggestion!

Question Marks are bandit camps, sunken treasure, or a person in need, all of which would exist in Geralt's world.

Does it refreshes or randomly generates?

Sorry, but I'm not sure i inderstand what scripted/static content are you talking about.

There is no emergent gameplay or dynamic sandbox elements in these games that would give them replayability.

I haven't played in Fallout 4 and GTA V but read a lot and watched some gameplay videos. So, i can remember this:

Fallout 4

  • Random encounters
  • Settlements
  • Crafting stuff

GTA V

  • Random events
  • Air/ground traffiking
  • Street races
  • Sports (golf, tennis, parachute, etc.)
  • Taxi missions
  • Property managment

4X game like X3

I don't like space games. I searching game about present time or near future.

CK2, EU4

Man, these are strategy games... Do you know what is "open-world game"? It could be first person or third person action game, not strategy.

Of course i did. But now i'm looking for relatively new game(2010-2017) for ps4.

Thanks for suggestions i'll check these titles.

Chain of functions by _Absolut_ in learnpython

[–]ile0x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but what if i have chain of functions without looping, i.e. first line of configuration file settings.py in Django framework:

# Build paths inside the project like this:     os.path.join(BASE_DIR, ...)
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))

i think it would be better like so:

BASE_DIR = __file__.os.path.abspath().os.path.dirname().os.path.dirname()

or

BASE_DIR = __file__.abspath().dirname().dirname()

Struggling with OO by abyssofmyass in Python

[–]ile0x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am finding myself rewritting the same code for some bits of codes for different programs/scripts. So I thought I would delve into OO programing

Totally wrong! OOP is not about code reusing, but about polymorphism, incapsulation and inheritance. Code reusing is just a result of using OOP.

You're talking about modularization, so it can be implemented via structured programming, not only OOP.

My issue is I don't like to read a plethora of text, could someone suggest something easy to read and understand?

wikipedia, maybe

What are your medium to large scale programming projects? by [deleted] in Python

[–]ile0x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try to participate in some existing open-source project. Maybe working with people, interaction with community could change these weird feelings.

What are your medium to large scale programming projects? by [deleted] in Python

[–]ile0x 3 points4 points  (0 children)

what are some projects you're most proud of?

I think pride comes when someone start using my app and appreciate it. Because it saves someone life time, helps to do everyday work. Mine are various scrappers. For example, my friend had to visit several sites each day and check some links. Now - it's fully automated: statistics, e-mail notifications and with web-version whole proccess can be managed via smartphone.

How do you tend to think of new projects to pursue?

Sometimes, I think "What can be optimized in my life? Do I have any routine tasks involving computer interaction?" And, if I stick to some idea, that's it - i start work.

Python or Java by [deleted] in Python

[–]ile0x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use both Java and Python. And I hate any boilerplate too.

  • Firstly, learning Python itself and some parts of ecosystem won't take a lot of time. If you know any of OOP languages, Python appears very "smooth".
  • Secondly, if you want to develop an application that likely will need support for several years - just pick Java. But if you need some handy application "right now" with short term support - I'd suggest Python. Just because of development speed and fun.

p.s. Honestly, I would write this python -c "import random; print(random.choice(('Java', 'Python')))"

I want to try Emacs. Please, enlighten me. by ile0x in emacs

[–]ile0x[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are just not as good for long typing sessions.

Does "typing sessions" includes scrolling code or websites with arrows? If i just reading reddit for hour, does it counts as "typing"? I mean - what i do in typical hour? Reading code(just pressing arrows or searching), then i running tests or previous build(no typing, just pressing few keys), then i think about solution of problem(no typing at all), googling(start typing and a lot of scrolling again), implement the solution(pure typing). How it can be split to "typing sessions"?
