They don't even really put the boot in, just stating facts. Will be fun to read all the google translated rage in their forums or comments.

Have any of you actually read this Cargo Interaction design document? https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/engineering/14677-Cargo-Interaction They post a few videos of apparently ground-breaking "grabby hands" poo poo. I just don't get it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktooC-40cdI INN offers some explanation: http://imperialnews.network/2015/05/musings-grabby-hands/ quote:As you can see from the video, the character is able to pick up, drop, and position objects in the game world. Can't you do that in Portal? quote:On the flip side… it could be interesting little mechanic if players could help clean up economically downtrodden outposts by banding together to clean up the trash… and perhaps occasionally throw it at their friends. You can imagine throwing a party on an 890 Jump, putting alcohol and food out for guests, and then having to clean it all up again after. The second video in the design document relates to picking up objects, but with like, two hands maaaaan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zesinId-Omw INN posted:A key feature that appears here is the ability of a character to move an object without directly picking it up. In the clip, this allows the character to position an ammunition box so that he can pick it up, but in the PU, this could mean that, should you brush too close to a weapons rack, they’ll all fall down. Or if you run too quickly through the narrow corridors of your ship, you might knock down paintings, crates, etc… What the gently caress are they on about? Pretty sure you could push boxes around in Half Life 2 without picking them up. How is this groundbreaking? Then there's the coin flip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXNYRz0I6QU INN posted:While the clip seems scripted (the coin always flips at the same speed), it definitely helps to show the amount of fidelity CIG are trying to build into the game. Right now, it’s starting with flipping coins, but as INN member Anglomanii mentions, coin flipping isn’t far from knife and axe throwing. Out of ammo in your pistol? Toss it at the enemy in an inevitably futile attempt to buy yourself some time before they blast you out of the sky, leaving your broken and laser-burnt corpse to float slowly out the airlock. ???

Evil Fluffy posted:IIRC heat dissipation in space is actually an issue. My understanding is that heat has to travel via one of three methods: conduction, convection, and radiation. In a vacuum, the first two are right out - that leaves radiation, which is a slow process. Ostensibly you could toss a hot cup of coffee out the airlock, tractor it back in after an hour, and it's largely the same temperature as when you put it out there. Lots of movies show stuff freeze when exposed to a vacuum. Although there are biological reasons why a sudden fluid expanse from low pressure can result in lowered temperatures, I don't think that applies to inorganic matter, like a spaceship's thrusters. That heat has to go somewhere.

It's close enough, and it reminded me to dig out this old gem from the EVE forums about how their world simulation does things: "Using chaos theory equations of possible changes in a ship's behavior before the next time slice, fractally extrude out a set of event cylinders (with hemispherical caps) of the ship's possible influence before the next frame, within the 3D space." lol

Otiosities posted:[Question] When planetary landings get more fleshed out can we expect atmospheric and gravity conditions of certain planets to affect the landing process. For example will weaker heat shielding get torn up when entering a denser atmosphere even to the degree that a safe landing wouldn't be a possibility for certain ships?

Ostensibly you could toss a hot cup of coffee out the airlock, tractor it back in after an hour, and it's largely the same temperature as when you put it out there. Yup. It hardly even applies to biological matter since they tend to be built a bit more rigidly than what would be required to create those kinds of pressure effects. And even then, the whole flash-freezing idea relies on the assumption that you're in a 3°K environment, which means there can't be any nearby sources of heat… like a star. With one of those odd things around, the star would have to go away and/or stop emitting radiation before you could start the cooling-off trip towards the background radiation temperature. I can't find the source for it right now, but I saw some discussion of what you'd end up with if you got tossed out the airlock in low-earth orbit (and if we ignored orbital decay). It suggested you'd reach an average body temperature of maybe 23°C or so over the full orbit. You wouldn't spend enough time in the shadow of the planet to cool down, and those losses would be made up for once you came back in direct sunlight. LGD posted:You could do that in Trespasser (1998) Yeah. Deus Ex was just the one that immediately sprung to mind (and in my defence, it was a bit more precise than Trespasser).

Will asks the VR question! And Ben says progress is "Not good." This marks the first time an uncomfortable question got through their filters and actually got an honest answer... Although Ben then said it was because the Oculus Rift technical standards were constantly changing-- which is a copout. So never mind. Now they're talking about Billy Dee Williams-- and Justin reveals his cluelessness about Star Wars and Lando. I hate to pull a Derek Smart but I predicted exactly this just a couple of days ago!.
