This is great to read. Letting players turn off permadeath in Heat Signature was sacrilege, design-wise, but trivial effort-wise - so we did it.

Hearing how much it let someone truly click with the game really shows the value of letting people engage with your stuff on their own terms.

Reference art?

Oh ok I saw your other post saying there is 😅

There’s a bug around the triangle isn’t there?

Interesting. Thanks for digging into this. I feel like to some extent observers defeat the purpose of ECS running all to completion like that while still accessing the ECS world. I wonder how much this serializes execution. But that’s a different topic 😇

Thanks for all the details. The command queue tells me there’s at least the gotcha of applying deferred commands. But since that’s mostly automatic now, maybe it’s not too bad.

That looks almost too useful to not be merged upstream? I couldn’t understand why the default you’ve seen people use doesn’t work, nor if there’s any gotcha (frame delay maybe?) to your proposed solution? That looks quite clean in any case.

Dishonored (2012)

"A QA tester was recording some data about fall damage to test the limits of players being able to jump from height and survive, when one day they used a power during their fall and accidentally possessed a fish — like, they were inside the fish, they didn’t suddenly own a fish."
