Lesnick is perhaps the worst community manager I've seen over a game, and game devs have notoriously bad community managers

CubicalSucrose posted:Technical question from someone who hasn't bought into the alpha yet, what exactly is "heat" and how does it affect the fidelity? Also, is there some hidden hotkey that will initiate the PAARP function, or will I be able to just "USE" it when the time is right. Heat's not hooked up to the damage system yet, but the working idea right now is, if you go above 100C, you'll start taking damage directly to your hull. Hull damage can never be repaired, but shields can be recharged if you park under the various "shield recharge bots" floating around the arena. Using thrusters, boosting, charging the Neutron Paaarp Horn (NPH) all that stuff builds heat at different rates/bursts, and cooling off is constant. I can even make certain thrust directions build more heat than others. Example: left-right builds the least but is slowest, forward thrust builds the most, etc. Basically those hooks are in there to force people to coast sometimes while they cool off, which can be risky if someone's chasing you. So if you're not mindful and just mash your thrusters till 100C, you're gonna lose mobility while you cool off, which makes you more rammable. I think that'll add strategy and dynamism to otherwise straightforward (read: boring) ram fests. So it will effect your fidelity nicely I thinks. As for the Paaarp Horn, you charge it with the right mouse button, and when you release, it lets out a loud PAAAAARP sound and unleashes a vicious AoE attack.

My favorite part of that saga was when he made fun of The Mittani on twitter and then got PGI shadowbanned from reddit and then made a thread on mwomercs to muster support against the unjust fortress of reddit, only to be systematically given the finger by thousands of Founders in what was later called 'march of the founders' My sides still hurt. https://www.themittani.com/content/traffic-control-transreversal

Is it feasible to adjust the cooling rate higher (perhaps even have heat instantly drop to zero, but that might be imbalanced) while you're flying through the water the whales are expelling? I'm not sure how the ram notifications are generated (maybe blowholes are already incentivized), but I feel like this would add some depth and strategic decision making to ramming targeting.

I know i've mentioned this a few times, so sorry for repeating myself, but just in case... I've got stimpire.com registered and as things stand, don't need it. Originally planned to make a silly little thing, but never had the time to. Let me know if you want it for something. I can either just transfer it or you can make a dynadot acc and i can hand the ownership over.
