>>1967 >>1971 hopping on now

it's trying to download the mods but it keeps giving this

>>1973 ah sorry, i should clarify it's saying at the top "Workshop item version is different than the server's" when it hits "Ash's Trusty FireAxe Model Replacer" think you may need to restart the server so that mod can update

>>1974 oh shit i was watching something, restarting it now

>>1975 when i tried to rejoin it's doing the same thing again, workshop item matching different version fug :DDD

>>1976 ill restart it again

Workshop items are not downloading. Fucking great. Do I got to manually add these things on here?

>>1980 idk why its not installing, you may have to. really considering just making a .zip modpack so i never have to deal with mods updating and having to restart the server every time one gets updated

>>1980 Nvm I think I got it. Had to install the items and let them update its good now.

Dunno if the server is gonna be still going but I want to shout out for the kemono models that were made especially the newer ones. I know it's not femcel anons fault with the workshop bug but I did get to hop on and get a couple of things done so at least I got to play on the server for a bit, I genuinely hope when multiplayer gets released for the zomboid server they find away to fix this shit.

>I want to shout out for the kemono models that were made especially the newer ones. thanks, i was very disappointed in the lack of kemono mods, especially given the high volume of furry mods >>1989 should still be running, i bought a month of service. ill probably play a little on the server this weekend too. theres a mod that shuts down the server if a mod is out of date, but i need to find out how to have the server restart afterwards. otherwise the server just dies when a mod updates

hey guys, femcel anon here. im planning resetting the zomboid server, and advertising it the anfoo as well. its hard for me to tell if anyone has played it recently. i guess my question is: would i be stepping on anyones toes if i reset the world? if so, i can just copy the world and save it so nothing has changed when i restart the server

>>2377 server is up, same ip: 83.223.203.234:29300

https://kemonomario.booth.pm/items/6911098 I found this free game/demo from Kemari/Kemono Mario earlier this year. I think he did art and some other people did coding (there's a credits screen in the main menu but I can't read it). It looked like fun and the bat girl character was very cute, so I was excited to try it out. Sadly, it's unityslop with garbage controls. Also it's a roguelike so there's no kind of level design. It's a 2D platformer which you are forced to control with the analogue stick (the game recommends a gamepad rather than keyboard), and you attack with the right analogue stick, and the analogue stick lets you attack in any direction rather than just the cardinal and diagonal 8. Physics are WAY too fast and slippery, and because you jump by moving the stick up, it's literally impossible to jump without sliding left and right. Each level is about 20-40 seconds long: you run in a straight line and attack very bland enemies until you fill up a quota, at which point the level abruptly ends. Every level gives you an upgrade (double jump, max health, additional projectile from the umbrella; boring stuff), and every 5 stages you fight a boss or do some big challenge. The game also looks terrible due to the standard Unity jank combined with Japanese PC gaming.

>repeatedly try to get into programming over the years through following language books or fucking around >never get very far with any of them >fail to acquire the mindset for programming every time >Land of Lisp came close enough to helping that it noticeably influenced a dialogue system I scripted in Godot >still felt like I was missing something fundamental I might as well try SICP at this point even if it's a meme book, because something is just not clicking and I might be the exact kind of turboautist who'd benefit from SICP's autism. HtDP might be a bit easier to get into, but from flipping through both it and SICP I can say the latter clicks better with me even though HtDP assumes less mathematical and electrical engineering knowledge from the reader. >>2391 >free Oh shoot, I'll- >the rest of the post That's unfortunate. Tying directional attacks to the right thumbstick sounds like a neat idea, but you'd need very dependable, stable character movement to pull it off, and slipperiness is the opposite trait.

>>2516 Seems like you're focusing too much on the tool itself than its use, language books, Lisp and SICP seem like a hilarious overkill for messing with godot. IMO it's better to spend the effort just doing stuff and learning from your mistakes and optimizations, but I'm probably biased by my distaste for /g/ memes.

>>2516 The hard part about programming is designing logical systems. You'd probably be better off playing Zachtronics games to train your brain to operate that way. >bat girl game Yeah, it's a shame. The character is really cute and I think it could be a fun little platformer or run 'n' gun but the controls are so bafflingly bad I cannot fathom how it ever got made. Literally disabling the omnidirectional aiming and just having me shoot in a single straight line would be preferable.

>>2518 You're likely right, and I intend to do that as well, but I'm also just really curious about SICP even aside from the memes, and flipping through it has intensified that curiosity. >>2519 That's not a bad suggestion, actually. Since reading your post I've picked it up again after not playing it since 2019 (I didn't get very far back then), as even if it doesn't actually help much, it'd feel satisfying to get into for its own sake. >I cannot fathom how it ever got made. My guess is that the developer was the only one who tested his game before it came out and was so used to his controls that by the time it came out and others could play it, it felt too late to change anything.

>>2520 The best practice I ever got for computer programming was playing Magic: the Gathering for 7-8 years and getting exposed to a bunch of old and new cards. The game used to be very consistent about its wording, so if you understood how the underlying rules worked then you could navigate games even when you were playing against mostly unknown cards. The differences in "for each" and "repeat this process" are meaningless in English but very important rules text in MTGese. When I started learning how to code with Java a lot of the for-loop, while-loop, and if-check logic felt very familiar.

working on godotslop game

>>2656 >his hand points towards the mouse cursor when there's no weapon equipped You might want to limit that to within a small range, as that shit could look really weird when the player character is walking around. That nitpick aside, it's a good use of Godot's cutout animation, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with this.

>>2656 this reminds me of that game called My Friend Pedro (more specifically the browser demo from Newgrounds), used to play a lot of it back in the day

first aid system >>2657 yeah, my coding skills are not the greatest sometimes, but i think its fixed now >>2658 never played it before, but judging from some screenshots, it looks similar

>>2659 haven't posted in a while, so here's what it looks like now

>>2659 >>2662 Yeah, that's much better. This has a lot of potential, although the nearness of the camera looks like it could be a bit too constrictive for a game like that. As it is now, you probably need to make really tight, constricted levels to keep offscreen ranged enemies from feeling either unfairly advantaged vs the player or stupidly short-sighted, and while that could certainly work if levels have enough verticality, it's something you gotta be aware of.

i finally released a playable version if anyone is interested https://40-mike-mike.itch.io/tartarus-zero >>2665 you can zoom in and out, but panic forces you to zoom in to simulate tunnel vision

>>2674 I'll give this a shot, thanks anon.

>>2674 I haven't checked back here in about a month, so this was a cool surprise to return to. Thanks, anon.

tf2 spy mod i made

>>2698 >kitsune spy Clever. A tanuki spy would be funny, but she'd probably be too bumbling to be the TF2 spy.

>>2674 >realise I forgot to download the game >go to the itch.io page >pic related

>>2726 oh for fucks sake, those cunts still haven't read my email asking to verify my game after an entire month

>>2727 Itch.io is a very reliable and trustworthy company which does very normal things like withholding gamedevs' payouts for months and not telling them why.

I added https://learnaifromscratch.github.io and https://functionalcs.github.io/curriculum to the General Dev Resources section, as they're pretty comprehensive followups to the archived /prog/ thread that's already in there, and Sister Miriam Joseph's Trivium to the Math and Logic section. It'd be nice to keep the OP on the smaller side, but if any of you have any suggestions for stuff to add (especially if it covers something the existing links don't), I'd be happy to toss a couple more things in there.

side project i was working on

>>2741 Math mode when?

>>2732 Thanks for talking about the trivium, I never heard of this concept but got really intested in learning more. I'm reading the first book at the moment, it really is an enlightening. >>2741 >>2742 true, other skins would be cool addition

>>2778 It's not the end-all solution to intelligence or whatever, but it does seem to be a pretty neat way of improving knowledge transfer.

Geg they sure are getting afraid

>>2741 That's awesome.

If any of you guys like puzzle games, https://nandgame.com/ is a neat little educational game. You start off building a nand gate out of relay switches, and from them you build other logic gates and progressively more complicated components to satisfy in-game specs until you eventually work your way up to a simple computer processor.

>>2674 I played around with your game a bit a bit the other day. The ambition is nice, especially for your first game, but man, does that Ruskie in the game's opening make me wish I could crouch.

>>3025 That's the best Spore Galactic Adventures footage I've ever seen.

we be modding an shiet >>3024 thanks. i think you can crouch by pressing s if i remember >>3025 looking good! putting a spas heat shield on an assault rifle is definitely a unique choice >>3026 https://youtu.be/uvJzf1-ZY-A
