  • In 24 hours players will be able to call in planetary bombardments, eagle storms, and orbital blockades with samples and/or req slips to pay for them

    Orbital Blockade: Defense Campaigns cannot originate from this planet. The Hellpod Space Optimization booster is automatically active for all missions.

    Planetary Bombardment: Fires periodic Orbital Barrages during missions. Accelerates progress in Liberation Campaigns.

    Eagle Storm: Deploys periodic Eagle Airstrikes during missions. Slows enemy progress in Defense Campaigns.






  • Much appreciated!

    With no clear winner in terms of performance, which one do you think has the most durable material? I have been using a Corsair Voyager mini for years, which I think has an aluminum shell, and it very quickly bent inward on the side that doesn’t have the contacts, usually I need to put a key or some other metal thing into the USB slot of the drive to re-flatten it before it can be plugged in.
















  • I’m in the same position, used Unity since Unity 3, tried Unreal but felt it took too long to just make a prototype, finally spent a day going through the 2D and then 3D tutorials for Godot, and now I am trying it out for 3D development with GDScript.

    The only thing I’ve really missed so far from Unity is a scene view while the game is running, you get the remote inspector, but it is so valuable to be able to have a secondary visual perspective while the game is running. Other than that, I’ve just had minor things with UI, like the 2D/3D/Script options at the top, the script editor should be its own tab and not tied to a scene, it gets really confusing when you’re in a tab named something like “Monster” but you’re editing the “Player” script. It seems somewhat common to use VSCode or other editors instead of the built in one, so I might take a look at that approach.

    I’m definitely liking it more than Unreal, it has been a lot easier to just get started and I can’t wait to really get into the weeds with a project.

    Edit: Just noticed there’s a button to make the script editor a separate window, then pressing the script button always takes you to that window, that basically solves that issue






  • I haven’t had boxed Mac and cheese in a while, usually Costco’s premade is a favorite at parties so I have also given up trying to make Mac and cheese myself.

    Cracker Barrel and the Walmart brand equivalent have been my family’s favorite for the rare occasion where we make boxed Mac and cheese. I grew up with Kraft, but now it makes me feel sick for a while after. I tried the Cheetos one with some friends once when it was new, expecting it to be terrible, and it really upset our stomachs, I was also pretty grossed out at how neon orange it was.
