05:41 * Ali hugs the Schism
05:42 * Schism snugs the Ali. Provides a nice veggie wrap, with lots of kale and chickpeas.
05:42 * Ali noms it hungerly.
05:42 <Ali> Man watching speedruns of Stardew makes me want to play it more.
05:43 <Schism> Speedruns of Stardew... eeesh. What, is that how quickly you can get the Iridium Shrine?
05:43 <Schism> And clear the community center.
05:43 <Ali> Bundles mostly yes and marrige
05:44 <HoneyDrops> I need to pick that up at some point
05:44 <Schism> Shove 10,000 amethysts at Abigail, that's not hard.
05:44 <Ali> All bundles can be done in about 3-4 hours while marrige is sub 45m
05:44 <Ali> Schism, there's another one that's easier
05:44 <Schism> Oh?
05:44 <Ali> Shane
05:44 * Schism waits for his brain to tick. "Okay, what's the gift?"
05:45 <Ali> God I watched it earlier
05:45 <Ali> But in summer you just spam hot peppers at him

05:47 <Schism> Whenever I get a day off... ._.
05:48 <Ali> Well could be worse, be like me and have every day off
05:48 <Schism> I've just been asked to switch my days off. Which means I get about 12 days in a row.
05:48 <Ali> Ick
05:48 <Schism> Yeah, but honestly, it's not like it's particularly hard work.
05:49 <Schism> Could do without the 1-2 hour commute. But c'est la vie.
05:50 <Schism> There is some enjoyment to be had. I get to poke the managers when they let their agents go overboard on breaks and lunches.
05:50 <Ali> Heh
05:50 <Schism> I know, I get to be the jerk. :S
05:51 <Ali> Must be funs
05:52 <Ali> I dun't get to be ze jerks anymore, nobody to swing the hammer at.
05:52 <Schism> It has its benefits. Among other things, I get to revel in the fact that I'm somehow one of the people in the workspace who has the slightest hint of professional pride.
05:53 <Schism> Seeing people coming in late day after day kind of saps that, tho.

06:05 <Schism> ConfusionRift~! You're 7 minutes late for your break.
06:06 * ConfusionRift twitches a bit.
06:06 * Schism pats. "Sorry. Job."
06:06 <ConfusionRift> Gonna guess you had some issues at work?
06:06 <Schism> Oh, no. I'm in RTA/WFM now.
06:07 <Schism> I was just being a sillypants.
06:07 <ConfusionRift> Aaaah. :P
06:08 <ConfusionRift> Thing is, at work, no one cares about my breaks or lunches. Moreso now that there are new managers who care even less about the associate and care more about looking good.
06:08 <Schism> You also have precisely one client.
06:09 <ConfusionRift> Yep. And they have to be happy, despite us going through a crisis, and likely my mental stability is long gone.
06:09 <Schism> I think I know the hotel at which it's staying, over in Tijuana.
06:10 <ConfusionRift> ...huh?
06:10 <Schism> Joke. Anyway...
06:11 <Schism> ugh.
06:11 <Schism> I'm just imagining the burning cities responsible for the shift to WHM for most of our backend staff.

06:12 <Schism> Apophis is adjusting its schedule to avoid getting hit by Coronavirus.

06:14 <ConfusionRift> Cthulu rose from the seas and saw the pestilence. And said, "Nah man, screw that. Don't wanna get sick myself." And back down under he went.
06:17 <ConfusionRift> Going back to work is gonna suuuuuck. I just know it.
06:18 <Ali> Work? What dat?
06:19 <ConfusionRift> The thing I still have to deal with, since I'm part of essentials.
06:21 <ConfusionRift> You know what would be clever? Hiring. That way, even if it's a temp, people can still receive a form of income, we aren't saturated with one associate for every 5 departments, and the company can still work on providing supplies to other more efficiently. But NOPE!
06:21 <ConfusionRift> We are NOT getting any more people. If anything, we're losing more.

06:29 <ConfusionRift> And vice-versa.
06:33 * PrincessRainbows makes grabby hooves at ConfusionRift and boops him with Ali
06:34 <Schism> ConfusionRift, I want to get another two hours of sleep, but I can't, because I'll sleep through my scheduled shift. How many profanities should I use?
06:34 * Ali squeaks as she's not for use as a booping device.
06:35 <ConfusionRift> Schism: 3-4 f-bombs? I dunno. I don't have a swear jar because I know that at this point I would end up putting my whole check in it. :P
06:36 <Schism> There are worse banking accounts.
06:36 <ConfusionRift> Like the one that charges you for an "account maintenance fee"?
06:37 <Schism> They all charge you for that. You just ran into the one who didn't hide it from you.
06:37 * PrincessRainbows licks Ali instead and hides under her
06:37 * Ali nuzzles into the PrincessRainbows
06:37 * ConfusionRift whispers. "Normally they don't charge you $30 for the such."
06:38 * Schism looks at ConfusionRift and laughs derisively.
06:38 <Schism> Do you even HAVE a bank account?
06:39 * PrincessRainbows makes tired little filly noises and flops
06:40 <Golden> ._.
06:40 <ConfusionRift> I got two... or had two. One of them is disused, since my parents no longer send anything this way. Which is fine.
06:40 <ConfusionRift> Oh wait, I got three accounts. One overseas, a savings, and a checking.
06:40 <Schism> Check the active one, ASAP. Hidden fees are how banks make their billions of dollars.
06:41 <Schism> Even the checking, heh.
06:42 <ConfusionRift> The one overseas is the one getting this fee. It's actually what they charge, and everyone has the same issue. The other two are fine, and don't charge much for the maintenance.
06:42 <Schism> Well, not 'hidden'. Circumscribed.
06:42 <Schism> Oh, okay, then.
06:42 <Schism> I'm just... not a fan of banks.
06:42 <ConfusionRift> I ain't either. But I don't have much of a choice here.
06:43 <Schism> Nor are any of us.
06:43 <ConfusionRift> Vasara looks interesting. (says his Shmup self)
06:45 <Schism> By the way, ConfusionRift, what think you of Timespinner?
06:46 <ConfusionRift> Haven't tried it yet. Hmmm. But it does look interesting as well, especially the style of it.
06:46 <ConfusionRift> It reminds me of an older game, but can't remember of the name.
06:47 <Schism> That would probably be Illusion of Gaia.

09:38 <ConfusionRift> I call them that, it's the Demolitionist class in Grim Dawn.

09:38 * Schism flops.
09:42 <Cepheid> Ah.
09:42 <Cepheid> I should a figured from the message you got, actually
09:43 <Cepheid> That message shows when you enter a dangerous or forbidden domain for the first time.
09:43 <ConfusionRift> Odd, because it ain't the first.
09:44 <Cepheid> Ah. I must miss it when it shows on my end then.
09:44 <Cepheid> But I'm guessing either... Smuggler's, Blood Cultists, or East Marsh.
09:45 <ConfusionRift> Unless it's every time you go in for the first time, rather than the first time overall.
09:46 <Cepheid> It may actually just be set locations as a tutorial warning.
09:46 <Cepheid> Especially if you are still early in the game.
09:49 <Cepheid> But yeah. Be careful in those areas. Some of them have a minimum level. Others will have a scaling monster that will always be 6 to 8 levels ahead of you for that session.
09:49 <ConfusionRift> You know what's upsetting? Not being able to put on a piece of armor because I'm 1-3 points away from requirements.

10:59 <ConfusionRift> Interesting disconnection. Anyways, Titan Quest is by THQ, while Grim Dawn is by crate.
10:59 <ConfusionRift> *Crate, as in Crate Entertainment.
11:00 <Cepheid> Yes, but the Crate Developers originated from THQ, if I recall correctly.
11:00 <Cepheid> Ah, no.
11:01 <Cepheid> They're made of former Iron Lore Entertainment devs, who created Titan Quest, which was published by THQ.
11:01 <Cepheid> So yeah, it's the Titan Quest devs.
11:01 <Cepheid> Word of the wise, don't do the Shattered Realm on Veteran difficulty. Normal, Elite, Ultimate, sure.

11:31 <Lumindia> Heck!
11:33 <Cepheid> The only gripe I have with Grim Dawn is performance. Game's running on an old engine, modified. So it stutters a lot. The stutter seems related to graphics. Might actually be my display.
11:33 <Cepheid> What with the whole 59-vs-60hz issue I have with it.
11:34 <Cepheid> I guess the best way to verify would be to try it on my 144Hz monitor.
11:35 <ConfusionRift> Haven't had much stutters. (shrugs) I'm running it on my 144.
11:37 <Cepheid> If you ever get a 4k display, my advice?
11:37 <Cepheid> Research it very carefully.
11:38 <Cepheid> Never thought having a display report 60Hz, but actually run at 59.94Hz or some other weird value would cause so much trouble.
11:38 <ConfusionRift> I heard 4k can be very finicky with some games. From stutters to improper scaling. Especially the case with older games. It's the reason why I'm sticking with 1080p.
11:39 <Cepheid> Scaling is definitely an issue with 4k on PC right now.
11:39 <Cepheid> Especially when OS scaling gets involved.
11:40 * ConfusionRift slowly nods.
11:40 <Cepheid> Rather than working on 8k, I'd prefer that they focus on making better 1080p and better 4k screens.
11:43 <Cepheid> Still seeing the pauses. Hum.
11:44 * Cepheid opens resource manager, watches for page faulting.
11:49 <Cepheid> Yep, got a lot of page faulting. Like, excessive quantities of it.
11:50 <Cepheid> Of course, that's not an indicator of a problem these days, based on research.
11:51 <Lumindia> oh boy
11:51 <Lumindia> my new phone will have Wireless Charging
11:53 <Cepheid> Dawns on me that I should just use my 144Hz display for development.

12:04 <Cepheid> By the way Rifty, you on Normal or Veteran?
12:05 <ConfusionRift> Normal. Haven't played this game before, so I'm keeping it stable.
12:06 <Cepheid> Good idea.
12:07 <Cepheid> Veteran increases the number of mobs, increases EXP gain by 10%, and also increases monster stats and damage considerably.
12:10 <Cepheid> Actually to heck with this, I'm stopping Veteran mode.
12:19 <Cepheid> I should do some coding.

12:28 <Cepheid> You know what I need right now?
12:29 <Cepheid> Some SUN! *opens curtains* It blinds!
12:30 <Cepheid> Right, first task of the day, fix up collision detection. It's working, it's fast, but it's not exactly easy to use.
12:31 <ConfusionRift> It burns us!!!
12:31 <Finwe> The sunlight?
12:31 * Finwe stuffs ConfusionRift's mouth with garlic.
12:35 * Finwe then decapitates ConfusionRift and sprinkles holy water and communion wafers into ConfusionRift's coffin, then seals it and places a bough of wild rose on the lid.
12:35 <Finwe> That should do it.
12:35 * Finwe also ilmpales ConfusionRift's heart with a wooden stake.
12:36 <Finwe> To be on the safe side.
12:37 * ConfusionRift opens the coffin, puts his head back on, and checks the stake wound. "That's excessive." :P
12:37 <ConfusionRift> And joke's on you. I love garlic. :P
12:39 * Finwe offers some garlic bread to ConfusionRift.
12:39 <ConfusionRift> Okay, I find it funny that I wasn't given a chance to respond, and got jabbed, stabbed, and thrown in a coffin in the middle of nowhere.
12:39 <ConfusionRift> Interesting vampire hunting techniques. :P
12:40 * ConfusionRift noms the bread with the garlic in it.
12:43 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift is a robutt.
12:46 <Cepheid> Anyhow, all said and done, the sun does blind me, even when it's not directly in my eyes. Not sure what, and I've asked my eye doctor about it, but I can't look around in broad daylight without closing one eye. It burns too much otherwise.
12:46 <Cepheid> And looking at any light-coloured surface makes it worse, to boot.
13:01 <Cepheid> Someone buy me Christer Ericson's Real-time collision detection.
13:07 * Cepheid sighs. There's a bug in his collision detection code.
13:12 <Cepheid> Hum, okay. That resolves that. It was my "Projections Overlap" function.
13:12 <Cepheid> Now I just need to position the player properly after a transition, so that they aren't touching the transition box.
13:17 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/LuminousOcean/status/1243527446885998593
13:22 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/LuminousOcean/status/1243528864367882240
13:28 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/LuminousOcean/status/1243530266028773376 Oops.
13:45 <Cepheid> Deceased Crab's run comes to an end next video. He has the easiest damned escape route ever.
13:46 <Cepheid> Go to the upper exit of the True Shrine of the Mother. He pops out in Tower of the Goddess. Take the Tower of the Goddess Chamber of Birth entrance to go to the hidden surface tunnel. Take that tunnel to Temple of the Sun, then go to Mulbruk.
13:50 <Cepheid> Apparently the above bug I had was caused by changes to fix another bug. =.=;
13:52 <ConfusionRift> Heh.
13:54 <ConfusionRift> Accidentally made a grapple point. :P
13:56 <ConfusionRift> That reminds me. Finished LM2 a while ago.
13:58 <Cepheid> Heh.
13:58 <Cepheid> Nice to be done, hmm?
13:59 <ConfusionRift> Yes, very nice indeed. (sighs) Those last few entries were dumb.
14:00 <ConfusionRift> I also beat the last boss with only 3 health left, and had used both revives.
14:00 <Cepheid> Oh? You even 100%ed the glossary? Nice.
14:01 <ConfusionRift> Yep! I'm basically completely done.
14:01 <ConfusionRift> That's including the garbs.
14:01 * ConfusionRift looks at the console version. "For some OTHER time."
14:02 <Cepheid> I plan to do it again at some point, but right now, I'm all LMed out.
14:02 <Cepheid> Full LM1 run, then a randomizer run, then LM2.
14:02 * ConfusionRift nods.
14:02 <Cepheid> And watching all of Crab's runs.
14:06 * Cepheid sighs. It's not his overlap function.
14:06 <Cepheid> ...
14:06 <Cepheid> Oh.
14:08 <Cepheid> There we go.
14:12 <Cepheid> Much better.
14:22 * Cepheid creates looping pit. Tests it. It breaks because the current code isn't designed to handle tunneling.
14:25 <Cepheid> I also need to set a terminal velocity for the player. Currently their speed just keeps increasing non-stop with no upper limit(Except, ye know, overflow).
14:27 <Cepheid> Maybe also implement physics properly, too.
14:27 * ConfusionRift jumps in the pit, and constantly accelerated into hyper speed.
14:30 <Cepheid> Technically this system works as is. It's just... Yeah.
14:31 <ConfusionRift> Refinement?
14:31 <Cepheid> Yep.
14:32 <Cepheid> That said, I'm not even sure it's needed, because the physics of the game aren't meant to mimic real-world physics.
14:32 <Cepheid> What with hangtime and all.
14:34 <Cepheid> Plus, double jumping is physically impossible, since you're basically setting vertical speed to 0, then applying whatever jumping impulse you use.
14:34 <Cepheid> If you applied the impulse without setting the speed to 0, you'd just keep falling, but a bit slower, for a moment.
14:37 *** Joins: FruitNibbler (Eogan@Pony-s42aek.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)
14:40 <Cepheid> Honestly, physics is a pain in the arse.
14:40 <Cepheid> Two main ways to go about it. Either you adjust the location of something based on how much time has passed between the last world update, and the current world update..
14:41 <Cepheid> Or you use discrete steps. Both have their problems.
14:41 <Cepheid> In the former, if the time deviates too much for any reason, the physics simulation will break down.
14:41 <Cepheid> And by deviate, I mean "deviate from the expected norm"
14:42 <Cepheid> So for example, a typical 60 FPS game, if you're updating the world 60 times a second, your time should be 1/60. Or approximately 0.016666667 seconds.
14:43 <Cepheid> But there are things that can cause that to deviate. Perhaps the game takes too long. The period between each update suddenly jumps to 0.02 seconds or so.
14:43 <Cepheid> The steps for physics thus become larger, less accurate.
14:43 <Cepheid> And if your update rate is tied to the framerate, you got even bigger problems.
14:43 <Cepheid> Because once that framerate exceeds 60, the changes are smaller, more accurate.
14:45 <Cepheid> And you'd be amazed how much can change when physics becomes more or less accurate.
14:45 <Cepheid> Go start a new game of Skyrim with the FPS limit removed.
14:47 * Cepheid goes about decoupling logic from framerate in his game.
