Advent of Creativity 5
3rd December 2022

There's something really satisfying about the way those stick puppets turn as you move them. Fun to drag around. :)
Time to sit around the fireplace for Day 3, with 22 rectangles:

I don't really know anything about photography, but if I take a picture of a metal water bottle from an unconventional angle with weird lighting, that makes it art, right? :D

This is Cormack, and old roleplaying prop who now sits high atop a box atop a shelf, watching over my office at home. :)

Advent of Creativity 5

After having to skip out last year, I'm back with another themed challenge for myself this year. :)
For past Advents of Creativity, I've always struggled with scope. I'll pick a medium (e.g. Blender, ShaderToy) that I can ostensibly create a b*snip*

Data -> ADPCM -> Data
16th May 2022

I've never come across ADPCM before now, but here's some assorted thoughts after looking at this...
It looks like ADPCM is a lossy compression format, so we shouldn't expect the final image to be identical to the initial image, as some data wi*snip*

Math woes, again!
9th March 2022

My main suspicion is your various m_SourcePosition.X += m_Size.X; and m_SourcePosition.X -= m_Size.X; lines. The results of these calculations depend on whatever the previous value of m_SourcePosition was, which makes it hard to reason about the behaviour *snip*

Math woes, again!
7th March 2022

All that being said, given that the code I've given at the end is similar to the code you started with, presumably that alone isn't the solution.
I'm struggling to follow what your code is intending to do, but questions that jump out at me are*snip*

Math woes, again!
7th March 2022

I'm not a C# expert, but if its handling of numeric types works anything like C++, then the problem could be that you're trying to do fractional maths with integers and getting caught out by rounding.
Consider your most recent code snippet:

Rotation with Parent and Children
4th January 2022

+1 for Jay's approach of treating each connected cluster of pieces as a single object and just operating on those clusters - that's how I'd approach this too.

2022 Resolutions/Plans
31st December 2021

2021
For me this last year has just been 2020 part 2 in a lot of ways...
Work-wise I got made leader of my team at the end of 2020, and so 2021 has been dominated by trying to figure out how on earth to do that. At this point it feels like I've mostl*snip*

Advent of Creativity 4
24th December 2021

As predicted, ended up rather lacking the energy and creative brain to properly take part this year. But I figured it would be a shame not to do *something* this year, and have somewhat recovered my energy now that work is done for the year! So I've sp*snip*

Hardlock vs Softlock
30th July 2021

I think the key difference is responsiveness to user input. If the game won't respond to any input, it's hardlocked - common causes are infinite loops or multithreading deadlocks. If it will respond to input, but something about the game logic prev*snip*

How do I rotate a array(tiles) in reverse?
22nd July 2021

All this stuff comes down to signal processing, and thinking a bit more precisely about what the 2d array of numbers that is your sprite actually represents. It can seem a bit counter-intuitive at first to think about for traditional sprites, but those val*snip*
