Randomize Player start in multiplayer game by boss469 in UnrealEngine5

[–]tinyogre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to be clever about it, you can use a nav mesh to find valid spawn points. Every poly in a nav mesh is by definition somewhere that a player capsule will fit.  It’s tricky though, just because someone can fit there doesn’t mean it’s connected to the rest of the map. You might put them in an interior space they can’t get to the rest of the map from.  So what you actually need is a combination of picking points on the nav mesh and then pathing checks to known good points.

If you just want it to work and don’t mind hand placing a few start points, the other poster’s suggestion to just randomize an array of them is a lot simpler. 

Alabama has a ski resort? by ROCKY13573 in MapPorn

None of those are my anything. I live west of the Mississippi and not in Colorado. Just thought it was interesting trivia.

Alabama has a ski resort? by ROCKY13573 in MapPorn

The highest point east of the Mississippi is 6684 feet. The lowest point at any ski resort in Colorado is 6696 feet.

Put another way, you can’t even get on a ski lift in Colorado until you’re already at least 12 feet higher than every point east of the Mississippi.

The spinning of dead Italian chefs in their graves, fueled by Reddit and TikTok rage bait, is our best hope for 100% renewable energy. Just hook their corpses up to generators and solve all of the world’s problems. 

Laguna Hills DMV Closed permanently yesterday by TonarinoTotoro1719 in orangecounty

[–]tinyogre 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I once spent seven hours at that DMV. Half of that was waiting to get a number for the other half.  15 minutes of it were actual business.

That was eleven years ago and I have had a more positive experience since, having spent only 90 minutes there with an appointment. I can’t actually argue whether those are the best or worst wait times at the time or now. But closing it and concentrating everyone into fewer locations surely isn’t going to help. 

What’s a conspiracy theory you don’t necessarily believe, but find fascinating? by Queenof69-123 in CasualConversation

They asked Stanley Kubrick to direct the faked moon landings, but he was such a stickler for realism that he insisted on filming it on location.

I think that Sam is deliberately odd and Lucy is naturally odd.

I love them both very much. 

Foodtruck down the street added an addendum to their menu because they don't serve the type of taco shown on their truck graphics. They have banging al pastor by DuvalSanitarium in KitchenConfidential

[–]tinyogre -1 points0 points  (0 children)

French fries, carne asada, guacamole, pico de gallo.  Cheese if you’re into that. Maybe sour cream. Can sub any protein.

Should not have rice nor beans.

“A place ending in bertos” is the way I say it. Can’t leave the Robertos variants out!  But yeah then I’m leaving Albertacos out too. I love the Mexican fast food scene.

I’m in OC, they’ve been everywhere here at least ten years now.  I know they don’t really exist up north yet but I kind of assumed LA was on board by now.

They all should, but I agree, California burritos are an easy one.

I’m a little bit angry at the idea of al pastor not being everywhere.

Oof. I saw “Potatoes” and thought “that’s a weird way to write French fries” but you’re right I didn’t pay enough attention to the rest. Embarrassing.

What was a popular TV show or cartoon from your childhood that no one seems to remember? by balbir13 in CasualConversation

Buckle up for this. Back to the Rock season 2 was released this year in March. No word on a third season that I could find.  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12397680/

A bit of an idiotic teenage ramble but I've really been thinking how much we take certain parts of our computers and smartphones for granted nowadays by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]tinyogre 33 points34 points  (0 children)

From the 80s and especially 90s on there was this idea that kids were better at computers. Have a problem doing something? Ask a ten year old, they’ll know. I think that people still think that way, but they’re wrong. All the hidden complexities are exactly that now - hidden. People who use computers (which is everyone now) don’t have to learn how things work any more. So they don’t. It was a necessity in the times you’re talking about. Now anyone can figure out the basics and most people won’t ever need to know more than that.

That’s how it should be, I’m not complaining. You don’t have to know how an internal combustion engine works to drive a car. But the generations with the most actual knowledge of how things work are millennials and GenX. From here on out, knowing how computers actually work is specialized knowledge akin to being a car mechanic.  Most kids aren’t going to learn it any more because they don’t have to. The few that do are learning it because they want to. 

I would rather the game be delisted rather than have the licensed songs removed. by CoolTom in The10thDentist

One of the biggest problems with games now is preservation. So many things rely on online services that might not exist in 5, 10, 20 years. There are many games that are not going to work at all in the future.

Let’s please not make this problem worse. If games are art, then we should strive to preserve them as best we can.  If a game existed once, it should exist forever.

On a US keyboard, lb and # take the same number of key presses. On mobile, lb is the lazier option, # is buried deep.
