He’s a parody of a journalist played by Tom Walker.
What’s interesting is that more and more, he gets comments under his videos that he’s speaking the truth, and that he’s not funny anymore.
I tend to agree. You know things are bad when comedian*snip*

Shoveling Shit Algorithm

Ok.
So I ended up having to make the algorithm *slightly* more complex, but now it just seems to work.

Thanks for your input!
I never learned UDP. And there's a reason for that: World of Warcraft and Guild Wars use TCP.
If you want a fast-paced game (even with fewer clients), UDP should be used.
But TCP is more than good enough for most RPGs (even wi*snip*

TCP guarantees in-order delivery so that’s not a concern.

Not sure I’m looking for comments on this. Please respond if you have some answers to the questions I’ll inevitably be asking, I guess.

Open World Games

Why is every game being released these days an open world game?
Off the top of my head: Zelda, Horizon Zero Dawn/Forbidden West, Cyberpunk 2077, Starfield, Hogwarts Legacy, Assassin’s Creed, Red Dead Redemption, GTA, Saint’s Row, Spider-Man, even SONI*snip*

He left.
He’s intending to sit over the summer, but Labour’s threatening a VONC if he does that.
Drama’s not over yet…
Boris has a good sense of humor though.

Math woes, again!

Thanks for the help shroom!
I should have been more specific!
Jay's code works, it displays the frame of the sprite sheet when it is initialized. But the ''animation'' isn't working. I suspect that's because I'm doing this in the *snip*

I tried this too, but it doesn't appear to be working either

Can you gamify anything?
4th March 2022

So right now there’s a war on in Europe. The history of game design has shown us that it’s pretty easy to gamify war, and Will Wright showed us that you can gamify going to the loo and being a mayor.
But is there anything that you wouldn’t be able t*snip*

Yes, I have spritesheets with 4 sprites on them, one for each button state.
The problem is that (of course, because Maxis made inconsistency into an art form) most of the sprite sheets are 100x25 pixels, but now I’ve run across one that is 560x210.

Math woes, again!

So, a long time ago I made some hardcoded calculations in my code, which now have apparently come back to bite me.
Is there any reason why this:

would work with textures*snip*
