Oh I meant with my own waves. But seeing as you're using a similar technique you may encounter it also

Yep ok that's the solution I went with also. A heads up, I have noticed some strange behaviour that pops up from time to time where a single wave will be out of sync, I haven't been able to pinpoint the issue as it's extremely rare but I believe it may be a floating point issue.

If you add a 'if not is_node_ready(): return' at the beginning of your setters I think it solves most if not all these problems. It should make the behaviour consistent : do not run during deserialization, only when the value is changed.

Is this using a compute shader, or just the same math on both CPU and GPU ?

NPC, don't plan on having multiple playable characters, it'd make things more complicated that it is already 😄

New character in the works. Still a noob when it comes to 3d modelling but I'm finally starting to feel more confortable with using #blender #indiedev

A quick breakdown of the stylised cloud shader for those interested ☁️#indiedev

I'd be interested in reading the article aha. I've used both patterns for the web and prefer functional in that use case but I don't mind OOP within Godot. Signals being my least favourite part. I find it unclear what's connected to what when using the inspector, I much prefer to do it via code.

Seeing as Godot is built around it, do you program without it at all ? 🤔 I find inheritance to be super useful especially with all the built in nodes provided.

When is it not stormy in Pembrokeshire? ☺️

I was gonna ask if this was in Fahrenheit or Celsius only to realise that the conversation is almost equivalent. Where are you ? the north pole ? 🥶

Am I correct in assuming this only works if all items are aligned on a 2d plane ? Unless it's a 3d texture you're passing to the shader ? 🤔

After talking with devs in the industry I get the feeling the push for AI (at least In this field) is mainly because shareholders have been sold on the promise that it "saves time" when in reality you're going to spend just as much time verifying or correcting whatever it spat out.

With or without the lightning ? ⚡ On the one hand it adds mood, but on the other it reduces contrast and draws attention away from the title 🤔

You will like my indie game if you played these games:
- Dredge ⚓
- Skyrim 🗺️
- A Short Hike 🗻

I could spend all day designing my own ships. Will the building part be a feature of Ancient Waves also ?

Compositor effects weren't a thing when I started developing the game. Though I have since upgraded to 4.4 I haven't had the chance to look into it so it's currently still a mix of 2d and 3d rects doing the work.

The art style is basically "how can I make this look good by doing the least work possible" 😅
