Biggest problem is usually stops. If the stop spacing is too tight, your train will spend most of it's time decelerating and accelerating. Not close to top speed

I think this is how they do arabic. Stretching and bending glyphs to connect them together. I can imagine something like this working for most things. But I imagine reducing the characters to glyhps is a herculean task. Let alone defining deformations for them. And at the end you probably end up with a solution where you can't stylize some characters properly

Q: Aren't you asking companies to support games forever? Isn't that unrealistic? A: No, we are not asking that at all. We are in favor of publishers ending support for a game whenever they choose. What we are asking for is that they implement an end-of-life plan to modify or patch the game so that it can run on customer systems with no further support from the company being necessary. We agree it is unrealistic to expect companies to support games indefinitely and do not advocate for that in any way. […]

you say it is better. but is it? like who knows what games will not come if we have that law. E.g. we don't know for certain it is better
I think that what they are doing currently is immoral. I know that what they are doing is pretty much illegal in some places. I know as a developer that releasing a binary isn't much work. Thus I think this is a good law
09:28
Perhaps you disagree with one of those that leads you to think otherwise

Many laws work as a deterrent that self-apply. Just knowing it's illegal companies just won't do it, so they won't be sued, so we don't need more lawyers

it cant be as easy as releasing a server binary surely. even for the specific case of the crew (edited)

i don't work for ubisoft obviously. but even our rudimentary party game has more than comfortable amount of moving parts just to make the game start

obviously we have devtools that by-pass some of that, but we do have hardcoded or disk saved credentials that allows us to do that, which i personally think it is unreasonable to release as-is. (edited)

just explain to me how do you, without source code, strip our internal netease server infrastructure SDK and run the fleet allocator
09:47
again, we are not netease, we are a studio with netease publishing our game.
09:48
we have all the binary you can eat. but there are pieces that is just unavoidable if you do not allocate more devs to wrap it in a abstraction layer and frankly i don't believe abstract everything should ever be a requirement for gamedev.
09:48
because gamedevs are not real devs
09:49
we are paid cheaply than software engineers
09:49
and usually disposable
09:50
i am already more than qualified to be gamedev and i'm sure you are too. but you can't just expect game dev to have the cs knowledge like you do because most of us simply don't.

to be fair im more than happy to release servers or patch our games if my own studio ever make a live service and reaches end of life. just because it feels like the right thing to do as a indie. but i don't think it really is worth the risk of putting lower tier gamedev out of qualification AND drive high quality workers salary down.

where is it happening?
Thankfully he doesn't do anything with it before the verification, but for some reason it happens in an internal layer where we are supposed to be only handling data already normalised
12:23
Pretty much the layer where the external services details should all be abstracted away by now

Like the intention is clear this guy decided he wanted to pass this down to a lower layer and handle the entire request down there. Which is I guess fine. Then he noticed that it's impossible, there is a reason we have an api layer. What do you do? The obvious answer is that your original choice was wrong and you need more abstraction
Avatar
i know none
Avatar
What does he do, he moves just the bits that need to be on the api layer up to the api layer, then adds branches everywhere

Also a result of 0 foresight. Why on earth would he ever use the external order id anywhere internal, that's literally our entire product, abstracting away this stuff. Now there is a 10 story point ticket open for refactoring that mistake

If something is moving then you are moving relative to it.

So to stop moving you would need to stop everything.

Well you could declare that particle to be the centre of the universe
13:14
Something that is the centre does not move
13:14
Only everything around it moves so you could that you are not walking but but the ground beneath you is moving (edited)
13:15
But it's hard to define what "you" is since you are made of particles (edited)

@Teero doesnt this assume circular movement? what if everything around moves, not in a circle, then the center would have to move to, else it will not be center anymore?

Any linux vps will work fine, ddnet doesn't require very strong servers. Programming and add ons you'll have to learn on your own, we don't have many resources and the codebase is pretty dirty but I think @Ryozuki and ChillerDragon have a handful of tutorials on how to add simple stuff to the game like console commands
