XK posted:If initializing variables makes a notable contribution to your runtime, you are doing things wrong. He ran the examples like a billion times so that they took 2 seconds. In any case, leaving the variables not-initialized is a recipe for fantastic bugs way down the line unless you're very careful. Better optimize some other part of the code, like, I dunno, having the netcode send hundreds of time more data than it should.

I'm sure they could do a halfway decent job with such funding. The last 50 million I would blow on an advertising blitz to convince nerds that we are Kings of Hot poo poo Island. I would repeat this cycle every 7 years, and die of a heart attack at the age of 47 due to a life of wanton debauchery.

Expect at least 4 paragraphs about this fix in the next 30gb patch. Also probably a YouTube video with green screen developers "investigating" this huge bug for like 12 weeks. It's gonna delay 3.0 and bump some expected features, but it's worth it.

https://twitter.com/dsmart/status/864185416232177664 Well, they've given croberts more of the worst news ever. He can't have "seamless" space<->planet transitions because the engine can't do it. I had reported before that 3.0 (which now has moons, not planets) was just another level (like the current ones) in which they place the moon object in the scene like a station. Who remembers this? FF to 12:48 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezrghcBRcSk&t=12m48s 10 for the Chairman: Episode 70, Nov 16, 2015 quote:We don’t have planetary landing we have landings on various space stations then we have three main space stations and six or seven communication satellites scattered around the Crusade gas giant. We’re not going to have the planetary landings this year. It will be next year. It will definitely be like the CitizenCon we saw in 2014 but probably much better. This is what he was saying it would better than. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Gx-3iwXvoQ Star Citizen CitizenCon 2014 Persistent Universe Demo, Oct 13, 2014 And this the R&D tech demo from CitizenCon 2016 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdCFTF8j7yI Star Citizen: Procedural Planets v2, Oct 11, 2016 https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/12grru/i_am_chris_roberts_creator_of_wing_commander/c6uxth9/, Chris Roberts Reddit AMA, Nov 1st, 2012 quote:"You wont be able to seamlessly land on a planet from free flight (but we will have a nice in engine cinematic that feels fairly seamless). Word is they still can't do seamless anything. What is this "seamless transition" nonsense anyway? - start off in your wan...erm, space pod - requisition your space chariot - enter space chariot - plot a course for the moon|planet you see in the map - jump/fly to spherical object representing the moon|planet - fly ahead as you enter the sphere, you breach the atmosphere and enter the moon|planet. no cut scene - land space chariot, exit. do stuff - to leave, enter space chariot, go vertical, reach escape velocity, breach atmosphere, end up in space To see this in action: - watch any movie from ED; though they only have some moons and planetoids which you can land on - watch any movie from Battlespace Infinity (it took them forever to get it done right btw) - watch any movie from Universal Combat. Though I cheat somewhat by using an external camera transition when the moon|planet gravity grabs the ship To have a truly seamless transition, you need a scene manager that is capable of handling not just the objects (planets, moons, stations, players, asteroid fields etc) in the space but also stuff inside them. In the case of stations, those are the internal hand-crafted levels; which is how you can land your chariot at a station, then enter it in fps. Even though they've been touting "procedural planets" since last year, and then changed it to moons for 3.0, they are only apparently able to add moon/asteroid objects in the scene like they do stations. This will allow you to land on them like you would a station. Apparently what you saw at CitizenCon 2016, even though they've come out and said it was R&D anyway, isn't actually working for a production client/server build. That's why they switched to moons since they are smaller, mostly rock, don't need that much detail to look interesting etc. Basically, they're doing what ED, LoD, COD:IW, ME:A et al are doing. Except that ED doesn't yet have space legs. And even they are having problems ranging from collision detect (you can fall right through the world) issues, popping, bland assets - and nothing to do. Yet, they are saying all of this is coming in mid July. Why it's not surprising that they've starting cutting stuff from 3.0 and deferring it. Which is not an issue in itself, since that happens all the time. The issue is that, once again, it's mid-2017 by the time 3.0 comes out, and sources are saying it's not going to be much progress; and certainly not what backers are thinking is coming. I wrote this missive back in Feb this year. ALL THE PROCEDURAL PLANETS PROMISES TO DATE Line Of Defense does not have seamless space<->planetary transitions because 1) the bases on the planets are all handcrafted 2) they needed to be separate so that our networking tech can better handle "per scene" updates, and thus be able to handle a large number of players. Mass Effect: Adromeda also does it this way. Remember this nonsense?
