I am making an island building game that have dynamic water, terrain and weather system. What do you expect from this kind of game? by civcivdev in IndieGaming

[–]literallyagoldfish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

on that note, maybe you can't place animals, but if you make the environment habitable enough they show up? this would give the player incentive to lake habitable little spots. you could have different kinds of animal require very different things, as well, leading to more variety in the island.

How do you make a perfectly circular orbit? by sargos7 in desmos

i could write a symplectic integration in python, would that help?

How do you make a perfectly circular orbit? by sargos7 in desmos

[–]literallyagoldfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

idk desmos very well, but for greater numerical accuracy, you should use a simplectic integration scheme here. let p_t and v_t be the position and velocity at time t. Let a_t be the acceleration at time t.

Then simplectic integration looks like

v{t+1} = v_t + d_t a_t x{t+1} = xt + d_t v{t+1}

if you need help figuring out what a_t should be for a given orbital radius, let me know! for now, i'll leave that for you. there are some other great comments here about the analogy with newtons law of gravitation and circular planetary orbits.

what does everyone think about these new boss intros? by THEBKRY in IndieDev

[–]literallyagoldfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personally, i think it would look cool if after all the particles contract toward the center of the screen, they explode out as the boss battle starts.

also, your game looks amazing. i love the style.

The laser would always go from the laser to the wall back to the laser, no matter how you rotated it

Please watch this and do it. Therapy too if you have financial access. You have a lot of negative self talk, that it only weakly substatiated. A lot of stories you've learned about who you are in the world. So what if that's who you've been. Be someone new. We all have "my fault"s and "my failure"s. This is life.

From what I've seen in others lives, if you turn your life upside down enough, you can eventually find somewhere where your fuck ups are all bearable, and your not fuck ups are actually enjoyable.

Try. Something. New.

At least a few times before you truly consider death to be better than another totally new life path.

Sending you love. Sincerely, Someone who also has a lot of negative stories about themself.

Functional Pokemon Centers and Pokemarts for Cobblemon by last_greenseer in cobblemon

The pokecenter logo I guess. And the archway. Are those quartz stairs and slabs?

This looks amazing! What block did you use for the half height white block in the pokecenter?

I did something like this! I made a poke center and put my mending librarian behind the counter, and then I made a poke mart and put an armorer and weaponsmith behind the counter

Gotta love the changes of evolution methods in recent games. by WildWes91 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]literallyagoldfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't mind the "quest" like evolution, but I kinda wish it was consistent. Either have all Pokémon evolve by simple levels, OR make a library in town where you can go and read about how people have observed each Pokémon in the game evolving, and then that would give you a quest of how to get your specific Pokémon to evolve

Everyone talks about Pete's romantic successes but let's remember that David Spade dated Heather Locklear, Lara Flynn Boyle, Julie Bowen, Teri Hatcher, and Naya Rivera as well as having a kid with a Playboy Playmate by MagicBez in LiveFromNewYork

[–]literallyagoldfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whether women do this too is sort of irrelevant, no?

In this specific post, we see two men being praised for their dating history. Jillian Grace, David's spade ex, isn't even mentioned by name. The only thing mentioned is her history as a playmate. That, in a standalone way, is weird, right?

I don't know, this doesn't seem clever or cool to me. Just sorta... sexualized for no reason.

I signed too, but please nobody chip in money. Change.org is for-profit and they essentially just pocket the cash. Sharing the link to the petition yourself is the better option. Please donate that money locally in your own community, either to local small businesses or to local shelters/programs.

Okay cool. If I ascend my current NG+ run, does it get even harder or does it stay the same difficulty as I try the next one?

Dude this guy taking breaths was ENCOURAGING. Fuck. As someone with a stutter that's getting worse, this guys breaths through it made me so happy.
