The clue to how to fix the error I'm getting is somewhere in there...

Pip

@Jon surprisingly more than none

user92578

10:18 AM

Pip

@Jon you upgraded yet?

user92578

LOL

Jon

Pip

I'm thinking of doing this today or tomorrow

user92578

10:19 AM

I might wait a few days too

Hjorthenify

Look at boobs?

I might not even upgrade :(

Pip

Jon

change is for losers

Hjorthenify

Something goes wrong when I install the update which will prepare my PC for win10

Pip

10:22 AM

oh I see

Interesting

Hjorthenify

Hell no

Chris

honestly, upgrading Windows sounds horrible. clean installs are the way to go

Jon

^

however, they are looking to push out updates yearly now

Hjorthenify

:P

Pip

I can't in this case. Damn.

Jon

10:22 AM

you can

Hjorthenify

I do have a win7 install laying around, but I'm afraid it wont accept my install key

Jon

the free upgrade works on a clean pc

user92578

I'd love to do a clean install, but I'm too lazy to do that

Pip

My Win8 key is embedded in the firmware, so I can't use it for Win10 install. I'd prefer to do it legit

Jon

i need to buy a blank dvd

Pip

10:23 AM

also....... this probably is going to fuck my partitions up a ton

damn

Jon

partition magic the shit out of it

my city is having a lobster roll festival

Hjorthenify

I'm just gonna create my own operating system without all the difficulties of windows

Pip

lol

@Jon YOU ADDED CONVEYOR BELTS OMFG

:P

Looking good

Jon

i did?

Pip

Jon

10:26 AM

holy shit i did. man I was drunk

Pip

lol

Jon

hehe, they still need some work, but overall works pretty good

Pip

Cool

So... when I got home I literally had 300 emails

6 days man

Jon

haha, yeah

i have emails on my phone, and delete them regardless of vacation

Does anyone else here get random "women" add them on skype?

Pip

I don't have a smartphone, my parents have flat-out said if I get one, I'm paying for it

Occasionally

Jon

10:28 AM

I just wonder, who the heck falls for that?

user92578

I never open Skype these days

Jon

Random girl adds you -- and is lonely?

Wants to talk and send you pics and shit

Chris

yeah I get that now and then, stupid spam

Jon

You have to be a pretty depressed idiot to fall for this scam

which makes it even worse

it works

A guy from my work, was chatting with some russian bride, he had pics of her and everything.

sent her money

He was completely convinced it was a real person

Chris

how do I access a parent class' private var?

I have a child class that extends a parent class

Pip

10:35 AM

C#?

Chris

yeah

Kevin van der Velden

You don't

user92578

You don't

Chris

but its parent private var is private, says "is inaccessible due to its protection level"

wat

that is dumb lol

user92578

protected

Chris

10:35 AM

lemme try

user92578

is the access mode you want to use for that

Kevin van der Velden

Private is always private

Chris

thank you

private > protected > public?

in terms of accesiblity

user92578

yeah

Chris

kk ty

user92578

10:36 AM

protected is visible to children

user92578

and (atleast in C++) to friends

user92578

scratch the last one, C# doesn't have friends

Chris

sweet

Kevin van der Velden

@Tyyppi_77 C++ is the only language (to my knowledge) with friends

user92578

Ah, okay

user92578

10:47 AM

user92578

That's way too blood for the performance

user92578

But it's looking a lot better with a longer life time and they now stop at walls

Chris

is that out of one body?

looks like a lot lol

user92578

Yeah

user92578

I was just testing if I could do that much

user92578

10:51 AM

No I can't

user92578

even ten particles per hit seems to bring the framerate down a bit

Chris

:(

I wonder if I should try a 2.5D look, like Prince of Persia

Failed to resolve execution package: Package_3_for_KB2952664~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.1.1.3 the amd64 suggest this is for an AMD processor, right?

user92578

11:03 AM

yeah

Jon

no

just means it is 64 bit

Hjorthenify

Hmm

I'm starting to think if my experimental graphics card drivers might be the problem..

It just seems unlikely

user92578

I'm going trough my gif folder, and OH MY GOD MY PROTOTYPE LOOKED HORRIBLE

Jon

post it

user92578

Naw it's like 20 different gifs of the prototype

Jon

11:07 AM

post one

Hjorthenify

Create an imgur folder

user92578

I could do that

Jon

this is the first gif I ever posted

on my site

lol

user92578

I accidentally uploaded on gif from this iteration

user92578

But imgur.com/a/pqoHI

user92578

11:12 AM

And not all are gifs

Jon

it illustrates the tedious process required to make a game

Lokkij

Yeah I think I remember those

You've really improved :D

user92578

I know right, thanks!

Jon

yeah man

Lokkij

11:33 AM

Is there a way to get the mouse button pressed in OnMouseDown or OnMouseUp?

(Unity)

Chris

docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Input.html

Input.MouseButtonDown

and others

Lokkij

Would that work in OnMouseDown?

I'll try

Hjorthenify

Most likely

Lokkij

11:52 AM

Whyyyyy does OnMouseUp only trigger when the object is clicked with the left mouse :(

Chris

cuz unity

:(

Jon

eh?

should work

Chris

(I'm assuming what Lokkij is saying is true, wouldn't surprise me)

Lokkij

Hmm I'll test it some more

In the meanwhile..

user92578

awesome video

Jon

awesome art direction

user92578

yup

Hjorthenify

Between doing laundry and errands I've narrowed the problem down to....

The update already being installed, but in a faulty state

Sadly.. It won't let me uninstall it

Chris

12:41 PM

:(

Hjorthenify

Program mgr finds the update and says I can't uninstall it.. uninstalling it from the command prompt says it can't find the update -.-

Lokkij

As far as I can tell OnMouseUp really only works for the left mouse button.. :(

Hjorthenify

What are u trying to do?

Lokkij

Having something trigger on a right click on an object

Hjorthenify

GUI element?

Lokkij

12:46 PM

A normal object (2D sprite)

Hjorthenify

Ah.. Try to implement IPointerClickHandler

Not sure if its gonna work on non-GUI elements

Lokkij

Ooh, I haven't seen that before, thanks!

Hjorthenify

I'm using it in my code :)

Works flawlessly

 void IPointerClickHandler.OnPointerClick(PointerEventData eventData)
    {
        if (eventData.button == PointerEventData.InputButton.Right)
        {
                if(ItemData.OnUse())
                {
                    ModifyStackSize(-1);
                }
            }
    }

Lokkij

Sadly it doesn't seem to work with a sprite

Hjorthenify

Figured

How do you do at the moment?

Almo

12:54 PM

@TheMuffinCoder very cute

Lokkij

@Hjorthenify I didn't need right clicks before, so I don't currently

Hjorthenify

but did u implement left clicks?

Lokkij

OnMouseUpAsButton, which is almost identical to OnMouseUp

Hjorthenify

Ah

user92578

function OnMouseOver ()
{
    if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0))
        Debug.Log("Left click on this object");
    if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(1))
        Debug.Log("Right click on this object");
    if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(2))
        Debug.Log("Middle click on this object");
}

Lokkij

12:58 PM

That looks good, though it also triggers when the mouse click didn't start on that object.. I'll try to find a solution for that

Hjorthenify

Doesn't matter

Users will very unlikely try to drag the button

Lokkij

It's not a button :P

Hjorthenify

Well..

you get the idea :P

Lokkij

I'd like users to be able to start clicking, realize it's the wrong object, and move the mouse off of it to cancel

Almo

@Lokkij yeah this is what they will expect

Lokkij

1:00 PM

Stupid Unity :/

I think I really like Vivaldi. There are a few UX things that could be improved, but tab stacks are amaaazing.

Hjorthenify

Where should I ask about the Window's problem I'm having?

"I tried, but I can't remove an update.

Your computer might be connected to a network where updates are managed by Group Policy. These network-wide settings can prevent you from removing an update. In other cases, you might not be able to remove an update because it applies to a security-related area of the operating system. If you think an update that you can't remove is causing problems, contact your system administrator or your organization's technical support."

Fucking windows support in a nutshell...

Pip

user92578

SuperUser?

Hjorthenify

Yeah I was thinking that..

Pip

Agreed

damn it I just woke up. anything that happened before now doesn't exist.

fine. I'll find another amusing picture for you tyrants.

user92578

Hmm

user92578

1:22 PM

lol

user92578

These particle wall collisions are annoying

user92578

Well, I need a way to detect that on what side the particle collided with the wall

user92578

and the take the particle's size into account

user92578

and then I need to take the height of the grass/something else that might cover the particles

user92578

a particle editor would be awesome

user92578

1:26 PM

I didn't have to fire off the game every time I tweak a velocity range

Pip

@IcyDefiance :D

user92578

I think I need to change my approach

user92578

And not render the particles on the ground, instead somehow change the ground sprite or apply a blood overlay

Pip

You might want to hit up @Chris about particles

I think he did some cool stuff for Tallowmere

Hello everyone :)

user92578

Hi

Morwenn

I was thinking of buying a book about game programming patterns. Has anybody read it and have an opinion about it?

Lokkij

Do you specifically want the book you linked?

Because there's a free web version if you scroll down :)

user92578

I think it was a good book

user92578

I read it from the web tough

user92578

1:59 PM

Okay, I think I'm happy with how the particles look

Morwenn

@Lokkij Oh, was it the complete version? I thought those were just samples.

But I found them interesting, that's why I asked about it here :)

user92578

Now I'll try to investigate the terrain decals

Hjorthenify

@Morwenn I read it halfway through and enjoyed it a lot. I would finish it, but haven't had the time

Lokkij

@Morwenn I'm pretty sure that's the full version, yeah :)

Hjorthenify

Oh look queue simulator 2015 is back!

Morwenn

2:02 PM

@Lokkij Well, I might have already read the whole thing then, too bad :/

Lokkij

Yeah it's an awesome book

bornander

Anyone on here with an Android device wanna have a look at my latest attempt?

Morwenn

Well, thanks for your opinions anyway :)

Hjorthenify

@bornander Maybe

bornander

@Hjorthenify It is free. Has no ads. No in-app purchases. And I could really use any comments you might have.

Hjorthenify

Toss me a link and I'll take a look later :P
