games like opus magnum and factorio are a perfect microcosm of the tech industry because they require insane amounts of effort and time to produce imaginary products

your mind is gonna pop when you find out about jigsaw puzzles

when the jigsaw industry grows to becoming an overwhelming force for immiseration and societal decay then you might have a valid point but even at face value it's a bad comparison because a jigsaw puzzle requires actual skill to assemble

opus magnum is easy to "finish" (not counting the production puzzles) by zach standards probably because you have unlimited space, and can just move stuff somewhere else to avoid conflicting with the rest of your machinery. the difficulty is self-inflicted from wanting to make something small/fast/inexpensive. c.f. spacechem, where you don't get a choice, you *have* to make things fit into a reactor but then you get to the post-game production puzzles and oh look, now you have to make things small. and it's a pretty substantial difficulty bump if you weren't getting into really optimizing things previously.

piston arms are for people who like expensive solutions (made slightly suboptimal in order to be more aesthetically pleasing)

it looks like only one exa can go through a link at the same time? is it always that the higher lettered one goes first?

this game is not loving around, i'm on like the third post-tutorial puzzle and already have 4 different workers that I need to move around and sync. spacechem has 2 independant workers, opus had lots of workers but they all followed the same instructions.

Just started and its looking fun so far but how is this game rinsing my rmbp and not allowing me to reduce the resolution or make the text bigger!

i put like 5 hours in and now i've got to go to work, game good so far though it's a weird feeling being the only one on the leaderboards. hopefully you all give me something to compare against once i get back tonight! also the pvp mode is lacking if no-one else has got that far yet...

launch the level, and the opponents host (the blue thing EXAs sit in) has a button on it where you can change who you play against

Anybody got a good way to prepend values to a file? I can't think of anything that doesn't involve an extra worker or an extra file or looping through the contents a bunch
|
# ? Aug 10, 2018 13:11 |
|
all my ways suck, the fact that you have to seek one step backwards after reading a slot in order to overwrite it with the new value that belongs there makes that assured. you do have just enough registers to not need a second worker or moving elements more than once. technically it takes it multiple passes, but since each pass only does a subset of the elements it's still fine.
