Can anyone point me towards where I could learn about how to change the heightmap of a terrain to the of an image in Unity? Tried Google, but it can suck at times.
@TheMattbat999 try out gdse chat
(i'm mobile, can someone link that)

Game development and other polite discussion. Game development...
am rekt
00:04
Thanks!
Well, that ended with a straight 'no' on an article
That's unity for you.
Can do everything except when it can't
@Avery more or less, it does almost everything (except usally what I would like for it to do)
Well
It's backwards on some stuff
I think I found something...

RIP @Fluttershy
@Wipqozn Who is that new character with Ana and Soldier?
@StrixVaria Sigh...
@Wipqozn, killing bridge members since he started wearing socks.
@Dragonrage exactly
@Wipqoznis it your job to be the Bridge's scapegoat? :)
I meant @Wipqozn

Q: Clash Royale transferring issues

SnowBearSo, I have my first clash royale account (the original account I want to transfer) on my iphone 5c, then I got an iphone 6s and started a new profile on there and when I try to transfer my iphone 5's data to my iphone 6 it tries to link my iphone 6's account to the iphone 5 and not the iphone 5 t...

Just tried Paladins (the tutorial and training) and so far I'm pretty disappointed
I tried it during some closed beta and it was one of the worst games I'd ever played.
It seems to be commiting all of the classic modern FPS cliches (regenerating health, no skill based movement) while also doing everything Overwatch does wrong (too much focus on Payload in design, ultimates, not enough champions to add variety while there being too many champions to create meaningful class combos) AND it's got too many microtransactions with having to unlock champions and having to spend currency to change your name
Also no Steam integration
@StrixVaria The worst part is that it seems to be pretty popular. The standards for FPSs must have sunk
nevertheless I'm going to have to give this game a 7.5/10 because it has mind blowingly realistic horse simulation
01:37
holy crap, 45GB download
ugh
I won't be able to download that in 10 hours
I remember once doing the math on the GTA V preload back when I had way worse internet and finding out that by the time I downloaded the preload the game would already be out in stores
@StrixVaria I just got rekt fighting a level 21 prospect with Stagger style. :(
@Fluttershy I have barely done any PvP.
I'm sure I would get wrecked by anyone who even half-attempts to learn the combat.
@StrixVaria I'm starting to get the hang of it, but I can't really tell what impact mobility has on combat.
Yeah, I have mostly ignored mobility and just stacked tons of defense.
02:05
@quartata no, you have like a month to play it for 10 hours in-game

Q: Skyrim no markarth job for under new management special quests

ProPandaI need to get a few markarth jobs but it won't give me any it just gives me windhelm and white run and solitude not markarth I just want to complete this

02:20
Water go awaaaaaaaay
I want my computer baaaaaaaaack
yay @Yuuki is alive
cc @Wipqozn
so are you at mattress mack's @Yuuki?
@Yuuki glad to see you survived. Would've got a little boring and little too much @Wipqozn without you.
user15026
Ffs dear YA authors, overly wise manic pixie dying teenagers make for terrible books. Especially when you get to spend the whole book knowing someone they convince you to care about will die because apparently books aren't good until you kill people off
user15026
ahem I think I am going to go back to romances because fuck this shit I mean really. It's like Lurlene McDaniel books all over again.
Oh my God manic pixie dying teenager is probably a tvtropes page
02:36
Good night everyone!
user15026
@Unionhawk its like manic pixie dream girls but woooorse
@Ash like manic pixie dream girl except just the girl from everything, everything and others
Incidentally it does not appear to be a tvtropes page
user15026
@Unionhawk yeah exactly. Everything Everything was a terrible book. I am still baffled it got a movie.
Because YA literature gets a high percentage of movies
See also probably more than half of the "based on the novel by x" films this century
Although to be fair Harry Potter got 8 films
And lotr proper only got 3
The Hobbit is debatable as far as YA goes
user15026
Yeah, true. I just hate most of them :o
02:45
This is fair
They have a strong tendency to try and get high school girls on some romantic ship team
user15026
I keep reading them and hoping this time that things will not be shitty and twee and manic but no
user15026
@Unionhawk I am so tired of love triangles.
Like oh man female main character could be in love with one character or another
And people project themselves on that character thus making them more invested in the outcome and ugh
@Ash i'm looking for a love dodecahedron, personally
user15026
@Unionhawk yeeeep
02:50
And it's inevitable formulaic and boring and will consistently get a movie deal
user15026
@Unionhawk while so many better things languish without movies.
user15026
@GodEmperorDune oh you want your relationship 3d and multifaceted? :p
@GodEmperorDune I mean at that point that's just a harem
But also yeah that's not a two dimensional object so
user15026
@Unionhawk or a well balanced poly.....hedral relationship
02:53
I actually have no idea what that could mean
@Ash sure
@Unionhawk a series of interlocking love triangles
user15026
@GodEmperorDune that's terrifying to consider
My brain is alright frying trying to consider these things
@Ash basically highschool IMO
I mean status norepro
Well, ok maybe slightly more complicated than norepro but
I decline to comment further and refer you to my lawyer
Snapchat gave my ex to me as a suggested friend and I was just like nooooooooooooooope
presses the launch abort button
user15026
@Unionhawk yeah noooope
i dunno, @uni's ex is pretty chill, something something, doesn't afraid of anybody
@GodEmperorDune I mean yes but at a certain point "all my closest high school friends except me have a kid" is 40 foot pole nope
user15026
03:05
It weirds me out that people my age have kids and I'm 30
user15026
Like I still feel like I am too whatever to be a parent
People I knew younger than me had kids when I was 19
And it's just like nooooooo
I barely avoided that liiiife thank god
@Ash i'm 31 and my daughter is about to turn 1 so...
My son turns 4 on Sunday >_> <_<
I'm pretty sure my one friends from high school have a 4 year old and an infant and they're younger than me so
At least you don't also have "is 22 years old"
user15026
03:09
True true
user15026
Maybe it will change when I can actually live with my husband I dunno
Merely 28 shakes cane
inb4 they find me and hate me forever
I'm like 95% sure I've identified the account of another jr Dev at my company
Considering real name matches and his profile says Ohio, US and "student"
03:12
Now if he ever angers you you can be like "I know some mods" and he'll be shocked
I hope this client's penetration tests end soon, I keep wanting to shout through the screen "That's not going to work"
If he ever shows up in chat I'll be weirded out
> application.log ! @757acg7ln - Internal server error, for (GET)
[/assets/javascripts/lib/forms//../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../Windows/system.ini%00]
Best case he just continues to just have an arqade and so account without interacting with room 35
I mean, it's a Linux server for starters >_>
@Unionhawk Oh he has an Arqade account too?
CROSSING THE STREAMS
That's how I found his network account
03:15
I was doing so well but then we started using Jobs and they made me join my account to the company because I have reps
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha
To be fair my Dev story is currently tied to my arqade account due to a computercraft answer I'm proud of
It's also unlisted though so
Oh good, I'm not in any of the company photos
yesterday, by GodEmperorDune
@Ash isn't poly bridge a sex thing?
Oh shit Dev story gives high rep users top x% so users a special indicator
That shows me with my 105 rep and scared of so
I should really get around to getting 20k, though that priv really isn't nearly as fun anywhere but MSE
Immediately delete all the things crap
SO rep is hard
03:27
Just have to find obscure things to answer
See that's the thing
Every c# problem ever has been answered by Jon Skeet
This is true
user15026
Hahaha okay this ridiculous f/f vampire sorority sister book is making up for manic pixie dying teenagers
03:43
@GodEmperorDune that may be the biggest polycule I've ever seen
dunno if it qualifies as one though
actually I don't think that it does
user15026
I don't think it's a polycule though
yeah it's not
it's more of a huge love triangle
user15026
(although if it were it would finally rival @ToxicFrog's in terms of complexity and size...)
user15026
(mostly joking)
Starbound's next game has tiny witches!
Look at how cute they are

I think I do
It looks a lot like Lotte

Q: How can I glide without transforming into Super Knuckles?

Steven VascellaroEver since getting all 7 Chaos Emeralds in Sonic Mania, I've had the issue of accidentally transforming into Super Knuckles nearly every stage. Both Knuckles' glide and the Super Knuckles transformation are activated by pressing the jump button while in midair. This has made it impossible for me...

user15026
@Avery LWA?
little witch academia
It's on netflix
Okay, so we're probably going to go talk into our vehicle insurance tomorrow as well as look into FEMA assistance.
@PrivatePansy Oh boy, I hope they're making a Hogwarts game.
I have to say that in my live-Bridging career, this has been my least favorite experience.
Which is saying something because the only time I've gotten drunk was during the Rebuild live-Bridge (CURSE YOU, RIP @FAE).
04:32
dammit
I'm having a case of that one xkcd
i think that time i live bridged being super drunk was kinda fun
I have this bizarro problem, google doesn't help, only thing I can find is some IRC logs and it has this
(also facepalm I just realized what I was doing which is literally stated in that error message: I was exporting two keys at same time unintentionally)
user15026
I don't know if I have ever Bridged while all that intoxicated
user15026
Most of my intoxicated times were pre Bridge
I had some experience with intoxicated bridge on january
04:38
911 yes I'm being subtweeting on bridge
worst live bridge for me was probably 2016 election results... when we found out @Wipqozn won
Hmm, good point. I am honestly not sure which is worse: Harvey or the advent of Eternal 2016.
Although one could argue that Harvey is part of Eternal 2016, I guess.
05:06
Huh, I just got a job offer from Amazon.
Well, an "are you interested?" offer.
But at the same time, ew I got an offer from Amazon.
I've heard bad things about their employment practices.
well hate to be a joykill but they even send me those "are you interested" stuff
Then again you have a much higher chance of being accepted so
To be fair, given the dev-related stuff you post here, I'm sure you're better than me.
In fact, of the Bridge regulars that are programmers, I'm fairly certain I'm the worst. Except maybe @Wipqozn. And that's because he uses PHP.
@Yuuki I didn't say that you're better than me (though you very likely are), I said that you're likely to be hired
even if I wasn't a minor the stuff I got were relocation type stuff in EU and they can't visa sponsor without a degree so... yeah.
05:26
Hmm yeah, that's problematic.

agh, I hate wireless
Ethernet has 22mbps downstairs, but in the exact same spot upstairs I get stuff that goes from ~1mbps to ~20mbps

Q: Minecraft Lag Problem

ShadowBonnieMy minecraft is so laggy! Without ANY mods, it has 30~40 FPS. If I ever turn my grapich option to fancy, it lags so much. But I love laggy mods. I tried to play pixelmon. Well, pixelmon is notorious for lag, but at least it lets you play. Well, it gets a lag spike EVERY 5 SECONDS. Well, my comput...

Damn it
This is what I get fit being on mobile
I'm happy that nintendo is actually moving away from the all family friendly thing
I should just mod abuse your post away
THAT'LL LEARN YA
@Yuuki I'm mostly using python now
also gamegrumps is great
they also made dream daddy iirc
which is best game on steam
@Avery If you like watching people not paying attention to a game and then complaining when they get stuck sure 😛

@Fluttershy Try not to get shot next time
@Wipqozn I was very confused when I read "Far right is @Yuuki" without other context
Same here

I mean, I don't think we got any far-right users, even
we used to
Not far right I don't think

RamirezIn Everybody's Golf, there are various types of shots you can perform based on the spin of your ball when you hit it. What exactly are the special shots that you can perform and what exactly does each one do?

@SaintWacko well that sucks... @Wipqozn must have done it
Genuinely using that much punctuation: questionable. Intentionally using that much punctuation just to troll @DanmakuGrazer: allowable.
12:18
@SaintWacko I must have explamatatiousitus then
What about to troll @TimStone
@StrixVaria The Bridge court finds in @Unionhawk's favor
Does @TimStone hate punctuation too?
I dunno
@SaintWacko we have a court?
12:19
I just typed @ and started hitting keys until I found somebody who wouldn't completely hate me for random pings
@TheMattbat999 Yeah, didn't you hear, it just found in @Unionhawk's favor!
You didn't pick @Wipqozn?
@SaintWacko oh. Could I join! :)
@TheMattbat999 No.
Ah, ffs
No wonder the lights went out
12:20
@StrixVaria why? Is it reserved for diamonds only?
Stupid creepers blowing up my wireless transmitter
@TheMattbat999 No, it's more of a tenure thing
@SaintWacko never liked those guys.... they look like cacti
@SaintWacko what is tenure?
Noun: tenure (countable and uncountable, plural tenures)
  1. A status of possessing a thing or an office; an incumbency.
  2. Cowper
  3. All that seems thine own, / Held by the tenure of his will alone.
  4. A period of time during which something is possessed.
  5. A status of having a permanent post with enhanced job security within an academic institution.
(3 more not shown…)
Verb: tenure (third-person singular simple present tenures, present participle tenuring, simple past and past participle tenured)
  1. (transitive) To grant tenure, the status of having a permanent academic position, to (someone).
@TheMattbat999 They're the only thing that's still an annoyance. I have the equivalent of 1000 hearts of health, but the damned creepers can still blow up my stuff
@StrixVaria What the hell is cowper?
@SaintWacko I don't make the dictionary.
Although this is wiktionary so I guess I could.
12:23
@StrixVaria Heh
I possess this coffee cup, does that make my posession of that thing a sort of tenure
@Unionhawk Yes, you hold tenure of that coffee cup
@Unionhawk I think technically, yes.
Congratulations
@SaintWacko yes. Other than Harvey, they are annoying. Harvey knocked out my power... :(
12:23
So question: what was that webcomic that was mentioned yesterday about the superheroes who play D&D?
something starting with grrl
yeah, that one
I highly recommend it
I glanced at the first one yesterday and decided it's not something to read at work.
Also I'm like 1/6 of the way through Worm so I guess I should just finish that.
@StrixVaria Oh. Uhhh, yeah, it can get a bit risque at times
@StrixVaria Oh my god yes
12:25
@Nzall me and my friend came up with Dragons & Dungeons (Dungeons and dragons but simpler)
Worm is fucking amazing
What days does it update?
@Nzall Worm is done.
@Nzall it's also not about superheroes who play D&D, it's just that one of the characters (who happens to be the main character) is a total geek
No, I'm talking about Grrl power
12:26
That is literally the only time they play any tabletop RPG (and also they're not playing DnD)
@Nzall I'm not actually sure
@Nzall as am I
@SaintWacko I don't know that I'm quite so enthusiastic, but it's entertaining enough to keep going.
Maybe it'll get there as I get further along.
@KevinvanderVelden He was responding to @strix
Although wait was that a reply to strix
USE THE REPLY ARROWS PEOPLE :(

YOU'RE CONFUSING POOR KEVIN
@KevinvanderVelden make me
@KevinvanderVelden I was refering to Strix' comment about "Worm is done"
@Nzall :(
REPLY ARROWS ARE GREAT AND DO ALL THE THINGS
@Nzall \o/
Reply arrows are the jquery of chat
@KevinvanderVelden USE REPLY ARROWS PROPERLY
12:28
reply arrows might actually be jquery too
jquery is the dark souls of javascript, though, so
@SaintWacko Looks like it's monday and Thursday
I have 0 idea what is going on
oh my, Chrome mobile doesn't allow you to make duplicate bookmarks, which is annoying for the way I organize my webcomics
@SaintWacko link for Worm?
12:32
It's not a webcomic
It's a novel
A long one
ah, okay, never mind then
I got enough paper books to read as it is
@Nzall It's reaaally really good though
I don't read Worm when I have the opportunity to read actual published books.
It's for those in-between times.
My to-read list of actual books is years long :(
Ugh when I finish Ship of Destiny I will still have ten more books in that setting.
26 novels in length?
OH MY
Worm is like 1.6 million words or something; a normal fantasy novel nowadays is probably ~200k, so it's like 8 of those long.
12:39
OH MY
@StrixVaria 12 days until the GOTY comes out
I'm speaking, of course, of Cook Serve Delicious 2
@Sterno My wife wants to go to the beach after labor day once the crowds are gone, and she suggested the 16th, to which I said "you might want to pick a day before CSD2 comes out so I'm not distracted".
Well, I'm currently finishing up the second to last book of the Sword of Truth series (last one is waiting in my book cabinet), I've just read the first part of the Sin Du Jour series, and I got the first books in Mistborn and Codex Alera waiting for me
@Nzall I think I'll come back to Sword of Truth at some point, give it a chance. I hear it gets really preachy but I can think for myself. I've read the first two.
I liked the second one more, I remember, but the specifics are hazy because it's been a while.
I like " Diary of a Wimpy Kid" books. Read all of them and have all except "The Last Straw"
@StrixVaria If you want to read them, you might want to reread the first 2 books then. In the later books, characters and plot items from the first 2 books make a return, so it gets confusing later on if you can't remember some of the people
12:46
@Nzall That's one of the main things keeping me from doing it.
Also, the first 11 books or so are definitely worth reading because they form a coherent story. But the author got convinced to continue writing books in the series, and I'm reading that quadrilogy right now. I personally think there's a marked drop in quality
Agreed on that
I really liked Mistborn and I didn't really like Codex Alera. Jim Butcher is not my kind of author. I didn't like Dresden Files either.
I still have the 3rd and 4th to read I think
But I just couldn't be bothered
I'm finishing up on the 3rd right now. It gets kinda cringy at times
12:48
Is Confessor the last "good" one?
yeah
Ok, will keep that in mind if I come back to this series.
like, one of the characters literally says "We are enemies from now on", which to me really sounds unnatural
Although that character does happen to be teenager, so cringy words are to be expected from them, I guess
I also bought the last 2 books together. And the last book has a MAJOR spoiler for the book before it on the cover
so that was fun
Also spoilers ^
oh sorry
12:53
Might wanna remove that
We have a room for this, hold on.
Ok, that works I guess.

 Fantasy Stories (Spoilers)

Discussion about fantasy books including spoilers (Sanderson, ...
@KevinvanderVelden I thought since you read the second book (The 3rd Kingdom) where that enemy is introduced, you already knew about it
I don't care about spoilers.
The second book is Stone of Tears though.
@StrixVaria I was talking about the second book of the quadrilogy
@Nzall yes I know what it's about, others don't
Yeah he wrote another novel series after the sword of truth series in the same universe and with the same characters
What was it, "A richard and kahlan novel" IIRC?
12:56
@StrixVaria If you've read Stone of Tears, you know about the big bad of the first series, because they're introduced in that book
@Nzall Yeah, I vaguely remember it.
My ability to remember plots from books is famously terrible.
Hmmm, I've gathered $10 worth of Google Play store credits
What should I buy...
@PrivatePansy I got a $50 Google Play gift card last October and I still have a balance of $46.
@PrivatePansy $10 worth of pokemon go coins
