Game programming is really hard because some bugs are incredibly subtle and easy to miss

Some roses are pink
And others are white
If blue is included
They stand for Trans Rights
@cstross The story of Inigo Montoya somehow makes too much sense now.
@cstross In case you haven't seen this yet over on birdsite: https://twitter.com/UrsulaV/status/1625361049808523265
In the realm of book ideas you've had overtaken by real world events, I truly, sincerely hope this wasn't one of them. *scream*
unity, vrchat, macro, micro, unusual ways of changing size
@Dex Yeah, that makes sense!

@Dex (Which will likely be installing VRCFury and GoGo Loco into your project space, which are btw surprisingly simple and mostly drag-and-drop. They're great.
But because we no longer have mod support, requires you to manually toggle OSC or recalibrate to force an avatar scale update manually. It's not 100% smooth until they support it natively, but doable as an effect with some manual controller clicky.)

@Aether It really is good for the headspace, yeah. 💜

Thinking about
outdated robot, wearing a backpack with extra batteries and coprocessors to lower load on their systems
the extras probably more powerful than their actual hardware. To allow them to function better. More *being*
Well maintained.
Like, been watching videos of retrocomputers being expanded. Using a raspberry pi to expand an amiga, or an apple 2.
The expansion alone being more powerful in many ways than the original.
Perhaps some robot that has reached the end of possible expansion, architecture abandoned for others, memory and software tha makes them themselves not easily portable. Formats dying.
But still finding ways to *be*
My own fursoña is kinda close to that. But not quite, but it seems like a good concept to explore with another character.

@qdot Yuuuup!
re: vrchat photo, ec
I'm really happy I managed medium performance despite all of the physbones and features on this.
Still more to do, but this finally gives me the good brain juices when I use it, which is the most important part.

As the saying goes: feeling cute, might delete later.

hi-fi rush
@chr The part I found most impressive though, is how smooth and consistent it all is between gameplay and cutscene states all done by different studios on top of that.
Some of that is Unreal engine, but on top of that, either they had really good communication between studios on the requirements, and/or their cleanup staff did an absolutely masterful job.
hi-fi rush
@chr From what I can tell, most things are implemented as finite-length animation clips, and I'm assuming they have a state manager that synchronizes each object via callback (including load times and UI). Most cutscenes are re-entrant with simple state flags and triggers to play events in sequence.
... reason I checked is I had a save bug in Ch 8 that prevented progress, and already bug reported it (and replayed from a fresh save after, all the way to the end).
