piccolo@sh.itjust.worksto Games@sh.itjust.works•After more than 7 years of development with nothing to show for it, Riot cancels the Minecraft-inspired sandbox RPG Hytale and closes the studio making itEnglish2·6 days agoFor propulsion, a small steam engine can work. And it doesnt need much power, so even an earlier crude engine would suffice. And if you have a boiler for the steam engine, you can use it’s heat to heat air for a balloon. Now in reality a steam airship would require a very large boiler and balloon, and certainly would not be able to carry much fuel to go far. But it’s atleast within plausiblity to allow bending to allow for gameplay. Just like you can ride elk… sure you could but in reality they’d make for a terrible mount. But its a cool thing for gameplay.

Vintage Story offers multiple playstyles and a huge amount of customization options when you create a new game world. You have the power to choose a creative experience, a peaceful world, balanced survival, hardcore wilderness survival or quite literally anything inbetween.
Sounds like the devs want to give players the ability to play the game however they want to play. So i think its perfectly fine to give my criticism. Im not saying what they have created is bad, i am just sharing what i think could make the game better for me and others. Honestly, vintage story provides a lot of what I wanted minecraft to become. But it just needs something to reduce the tediousness of gathering resources. Perhaps even something as simple as an airship that travels faster than you on the ground so distances aren’t big of an issue.

I dont think I ever found any sedimentary rock until I found a tiny limestone island (that was litterally the name of the biome iirc)… I get they are attempting to model real world, which is cool, I do like that aspect. The problem is the geographic biomes are insanely large. I think if the geographic biomes were the scale of minecraft biomes would make the game way more enjoyable to play without giving up too much of realism. There has to be a balance of realism to gameplay. I dont think theres many people in the real world that wants to walk to greece to find marble and then to the isle of portland to find limestone and carry it back to moscow.

What i want is more control with the resource generation. I dont want to explore a million blocks to find a biome that may contain a metal.
And for the record, i wasnt looking for limestone for mortar… it was for leather to make a backpack. I think its also needed for iron (or is that borax?) Idk, i never got into iron because just finding enough resources to even mine iron is just beyond tedious as a single player.
piccolo@sh.itjust.worksto Games@sh.itjust.works•After more than 7 years of development with nothing to show for it, Riot cancels the Minecraft-inspired sandbox RPG Hytale and closes the studio making itEnglish7·7 days agoMy biggest complaint is resources is far to scarce. My first map i had to abandon because it took me litterally 4 hours walking to find the nearest limestone. The scarcness would be ok for large servers that can support a trade economy. But in a single player world, all the resources needs to available within atleast 1k blocks of any single point. Minecraft solves this be distributing most of the resources within a chunk and only change their distribution based on their depth.
Ah I was misunderstanding the problem. And learned something new about C#, seems in order to avoid breaking existing code they introduce “contextual keywords” var being added later, it is a contextual. You can create a class ‘var’ and the compiler will prefer it.
In C#, you can use ‘var’ to have an impilict type variable.
String name = “”
var name = “”
Wait until you see when they refuse to learn anything but SQL.
Is a garbage collector not a garbage disposal. Smh.

Im not sure what you are doing but vscode is extremely fast unless you throw a several megabytes data file at it which then it bogs down. But even then, its only at loading the file since it loads the whole thing into memory instead of a buffer.
Looks at mr fancy pants over here with a magenetic disc. While im over here threading my code.
If you all you need a text editor… great. But an IDE gives you tons of tools, such as debugging, breakpoints, memory inspection, intergated terminals, some may even include visual gui editors. Thats why they are called “Development environments”.

Other day me and my mom was talking about how TV has all shifted to be nothing but reality TV… and then she said even youtube is becoming the same way… im like uh… thats because thats because you are watching it thus it is giving you more…

I use linux as a daily gaming pc… you know how often i need to use CLI? Zero.
Instead of reading about it, try it.

Cinnamon supports fractional scaling, mixed dpi, pretty sure it handles mixed refresh rates, and wayland support was added in mint 21.3 as experimental. I feel like you havent touched mint in 5+ years.
