My current way of handling abilities (like spells and such) is incredibly messy, it reads an enum (ability) and then goes on in one blueprint to do all of the ability steps. The problem is I now have like 70 abilities planned and repeating all of these steps for each one and putting that all on a single graph is an enormous pain.

I think I need to scrap it and start over, maybe make a base ability class then every ability gets a child class from there, the enum then just spawns that ability which does its actions automatically and then removes itself. That makes way more sense, right? Assuming any of this is legible.

Damn, really? That's disappointing to hear. Volition needs to get its mojo back, and fast.

From what I recall around the time Agents of Mayhem was close to launch, there was a bit of a brain drain at the studio between then and SR4 and a lot of the SR3/SR4 team disbanded. So nu-SR not hitting the highs isn't terribly surprising to say the least.

I see. That makes sense, then.

I once saw on reddit a "FEH artists that also draw hentai" post and it was a lot of them, so it is to be expected, really.

Can tell you this. Even when my messed up hand gets better, I am going to try practicing playing with one hand more. I got tired of complaining about not being able to play games so I decided to test this theory out. I tried it with fortnite and I even got some kills.

I just can’t really use the left trigger

building a class and using that for either subclasses or scriptable objects seems better

then you can just trigger an instance of that, I think?

so I think it’s a good idea

caveat — I’m still very new at game coding and you should consult a witch
 
I think it would help General ST planning going forward if we 1) Threadmarked the post claiming the next ST and 2) could edit the OP to include a note at the very bottom indicating who is taking the next one

“fuck you old man this IS a yard sale”

I’ve got a loooot of sound to work out but I’m very satisfied with that end “bump into a wall” I crafted

it’s all kinda iffy on context and mostly tests but

what do you think of the dash sound?

A wicked witch or a licked lich?


Anyway, yeah I think that's the better way to go about it. I need the ability class to communicate with variables in the character class (like the character sheet and ability manager) but those can just be passed through when they spawn the ability.

The dash sounds *correct." Like the wind from the movement is displacing the grass. Swiftness. Fast, gotta go.

Also the sound the video ends on is the wall bump? I loves.

You two are talking about different games I believe. Kirby's Dream Course vs Kirby's Dream Buffet

Oops, I totally read Dream Course as Dream Buffet, probably because I’ve been playing it a lot lately; my bad, lol. >_>

Oh. Someone else!

Are you having any trouble finding matches? I had an all CPU brawl this morning…:(

Nier Automata is a stellar video game. Gameplay is tight. Soundtrack is great. Narrative is going places. And like any standout game, it has fishing.

That’s happened a few times, yeah. I’m afraid the online for this game is gonna die out fast like with Kirby Fighters 2, unfortunately… Must not be enough people buying it, despite how cheap it is. =/ But I don’t mind much, ‘cause playing with CPUs tends to be easier and more smooth anyway, lol, but you still get the 1.8x points bonus.

What I find weird is that I usually try playing with my partner, and since we can’t join up and search for ransoms to play together, we just both start searching for a match at the same time and hope that we’re put in the same room together, but sometimes we’ll both be put in separate empty rooms for some reason…

I saw a Spirit Halloween out in the wild yesterday. And grabbed coffee at Dunkin Donuts (only real option at the time) and they had pumpkin muffin and pumpkin cold brew ads everywhere. Nature is healing.

I was today years old when I found out that Spirit Halloween is not open year-round

Why aren't there any Halloween stores open in January?

Lol! I too saw the Spirit signs. Wife says Starbucks is launching in store PSL on the 31st. Nothing days fall like 90 degree weather!

As an aside, going to the Seahawks/Broncos game. Gonna be weird seeing Russ in another uniform.

The rule is simple : if it's Halloween at Disney World, we're officially in Halloween season. So we can all enjoy our pumpkin treats remorseless right now !

If the weather could get the memo and we could have some rain, it'd be perfect, though...
 
I feel like gaming is now just a bunch of buzzwords like: expansion, battle pass, DLC, etc.

It's not even about having a complete package on the disk/cartridge anymore.

Lol. I went to Disneyland during Halloween and it was 100 degrees. Last year went in November and it was an unseasonable 98 on the first day of the Christmas decorations. Maybe I have bad timing for the Disney seasonal transitions.
