Hey derek, you better make sure, wheelchair guy was using a botnet to spam steam with false complaints about LOD or something like that! Otherwise this is not looking good!

Onkel Hedwig posted:I love the double standard by both insisting that wheelchair dude is totally an adult and therefore does not deserve any leniency (like a kid would), but at the same time he is threatening to call his dad. Even adults in his situation can profit from someone close to them, like a father figure, telling them that he should stop doing the poo poo he does. It is certainly better than the alternative, which would mean lawsuit. EDIT (Beaten like a young adult in a wheelchair): Tank Boy Ken said it better an faster than I could manage.

Fish Fry Andy posted:Hey can someone explain what anything in this picture is to me? I know that Star Citizen has a pretty serious problem with horribly over designing its models, but what the gently caress is even going on here? Imagine several high-end sports bikes with carbon fiber frames. Now imagine the aftermath of a multi-vehicle high-speed collision of said bikes sans rider remains and tires.

Karl_Ramseier, probably world's worst impersonator of obscure, fictional german TV personae, is not dead. This is in stark contrast to Karl Ranseier, who lead many fictional lives, but always ended up dead by the time he made it into the now barely remembered comedy show "Samstag Nacht" (eng. "Saturday Night"). Many online commentators criticize him to this day for his incompetence in regard to imitate the unifying feature of all of Karl Ranseier's iterations: being dead.

If you count the languages in which she can ask "Are you shaved down there?" it's actually 25 languages. This includes sign language and three languages, spoken by tribes as of jet undiscovered by science!

Berious posted:Hairy Roberts is the best thing to come out of SC since Gary. They should just go gently caress space then make a different minigames then jam that poo poo together like a Gamecube party game. Would be much more fun and maybe exist. Just make a full game out of the Barman-in-a-Spaceship idea. You could have different alien species with different needs (and incompatibilities, like "no water"). Maybe get a bit of "Papers Please!" and lots of SciFi references in there. Nerds would love it.

![]() This is Stuppsi. She likes to head-but things and people (hence the name, Stupps = bump in German). She also likes to beat up the neighborhood cats so hard, they don't come home for days but only if they intrude on her cozy snuggle nest, pictured above. She fears people, she doesn't know since she was adopted pretty much as a feral. However, she really loves being pet by people she knows, with exception of tummy rubs. She also really hates sales of mere concept art. ![]() This is Asuka. She has a very indifferent attitude towards danger, not unlike her anime name-sake. Some years ago, she broke her back which lead to her hip bones(?) sticking out. This gives her a somewhat starved look, but otherwise, she's pretty much ok now. She likes sleeping on peoples laps but only if you have the correct Asuka-Lap-Snuggle-Support-Blanket at the ready. While wary of strangers, she is quite fond of being pet as well. She will cover everything around her in slobber if she enjoys herself. She really hates shaving pussy. ![]() Asuka and Stuppsi, keeping a EDIT: Wohoo! Avatar!

LastCaress posted:The FM problems are indicative of a problem that I have been critical of CIG for some time now. CIG (CR) have lots of ideas, the problem is that they are just independent ideas and are not merged together to create a cohesive whole. Many of these ideas run counter to each other, "realistic" physics but "rule of cool" ships, "realistic" physics but physics will be different for each ship( same size engine is different across the ships), delayed ship replacement but short TTK, limited game resources but selling power for real money, just to name a few. But lets look at the FM. Nice post. As someone who has his background in Control Systems, their approach is indeed very counter productive. In theory, you probably could actually automate controller design for the ship thrusters in the design pipeline. I bet you, they haven't done that and are, in fact, adjusting their P, I and D values by hand (NEVER DO THIS!). The whole thing strikes me as something that's indeed easy to fake. In my experience, physics simulations and control systems can interact catastrophically (e.g. if the controller is "faster" than the simulation). In the same vain, change the controlled system (e.g. loose an assortment of thrusters) and your formerly stable controller may become unstable, leading to the ship spazzing out. I imagine both these issues to be very similar to general game physics issues, so debugging might get interesting. So why not fake it and get rid of potential headaches.

1500 posted:I also have a background in Control Systems, and that is why I wrote that. It is much easier to fake it then do what CIG are doing. There is also the problem that control systems are run on real time systems (windows is not a real time system), and as such are taken care of as fast as possible, if we take what is happening in AC, controls get worse as your frame rate drops, it might be because the control system is not getting updated and so you are actually losing control of the ship because you computer is not getting around to makes those calculations. Nice to meet another Control Systems guy ![]() Actually, if you want to control a simulated system (which the spaceship in SC is), you do not have to run anything on a real-time system. The simulation and the controller just have to be in lock-step, such that the controller code is executed once every XXms of simulation time. This, of course, necessitates that 1. the simulation can be run fast enough to run in "real-time" from the player's perspective (e.g. for 100ms simulation time, the computer has to do 50ms worth of calculations in real time) and 2. if the controller is configured to run every XXms of simulation time, there has to be data from the simulation at those intervals. What you are writing sounds as if, in a low-fps situation, the simulation time step length increases and so does the controller's step length. While there are ways to design a controller for varying time-step length, this is by no means trivial to do properly! There are ways to get around these issues but seem easy to me. As such it is an rear end-backwards approach to a problem, an arcade/WWII-Dogfight-in-Space game shouldn't even have!
