Game Development

C++17:

if (auto [x, y, z] = f(); x.IsValid()) {
  ...
}

the f why

Multiple return values?

@Tyyppi_77 Perfect!

I would upvote but I dont have enough rep on GDSE

lol I only have 7 rep

sup

Gonna edit questions till I get enough rep

@Tyyppi_77 open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2016/p0305r0.html (don't worry, short and clean)

I think the first part is a structured binding

user92578

I kinda like that

This will be added as well, it's weirdo as hell

user92578

Like I already love if (CEntity* target = level->FindEntity("Player"))

Something to structured binding, it seems to be just more "syntactic sugar" (I'm a bit against it, but I don't think it'll destroy the language, haha)

struct S { int x; volatile double y; };
S f();
const auto [ x, y ] = f();

You can then access x and y as different variables

where x is of type const int and y of type const volatile double

oh, now that I think about it more, it's pretty neat

user92578

Awesome

goty

do you reckon you're almost done with it, Jon?

Just curious, why the name Gorb?

10:14 PM

it isn't obvious is it?

shrug

Game Of Red Blocks

Oh.

user92578

10:15 PM

Not really

well in the image R is made up of red blocks

lol

Oh I'm dumb.

Green, Orange, Red, and Blue

Duh

;)

user92578

Damn thats clever

10:17 PM

hah
well played

alright, time to make this door open

user92578

But yeah whats left Jon?

left... well i need to wrap up the world logic.. mainly just unlocking when a star count is reached

re-arranging some of the levels possibly to better fit the world scheme

Release a test build -- run a test cycle

fix bugs

Guys I unconsciously allowed that my render scaled to any window size o.O

Hopefully do something cool with the music player, with Mick

It's really cool seeing you and Tyyppi but man everytime I look at my game it just feels like there is an absolute ton more to do.

10:19 PM

@TheMuffinCoder I think you should keeo the aspect ratio

Yea ik

I was planning on doing that

But didnt know my code already scaled it

nice :D

@Sie that's game development for you

it's a tonne of work

user92578

@Sie I feel that too, it's not like I'm about to release GunHero

Dont worry guys I'll catch up to yall >:)

10:20 PM

gogogo

not like it's a race though :D

has fought the urge to not play overwatch all day

user92578

Yeah you will, a scope helps a lot

To me? Well I'm just barely crawling out of pre-alpha.

I think it is very important to run through like multiple polish cycles

do not rush

you spent all this time building it --- make it spectacular

that is my aim anyways.

yes

10:23 PM

I officially started development in like February. Feels like time has flown by since then.

user92578

Aight guys I think I'll get to sleep so I can keep polishing the trailer with a clear mind tomorrow

@Tyyppi_77 you still using Blender for that?

user92578

Yeah, ended up really liking it

A trailer in Blender?

Never heard of that before but I guess it is possible.

@Tyyppi_77 i hope I can make a trailer half as good as that

user92578

10:24 PM

Yeah Blender has a video editor

sweet

user92578

@Jon you wont believe how happy it makes me to hear that you like my trailer <3

I am jealous

oh weird/neat: Greenlight listings support Sketchfab items now

so you can preview and rotate 3D models in the greenlight listing

@Sie I started dev last week :D
