Here's the talk I gave at GCAP23, discussing the Crowd AI in Jumplight Odyssey. It's been a wonderful project to be a part of, and I'm really proud of the game and the tech we've built to run a starship with up to 200 crew. It was a joy to talk about. youtu.be/RzWm8Eb5vzg

@Mr_Timmsy It's a fun way of visualizing things for sure. Most games and engines will do this to reduce how much is drawn wastefully when it won't be seen, but they'll also do it to the scene camera so it's usually hard to catch them in the act.

@EllieWhitfort just talked with you trough the coffee catch up, but this looks really interesting how the lods are showing up and disappearing from a POV standard, from what I know normally everything around a players character is rendered into the scene.

To cut to the point; I'm transgender and my name is Ellie. My pronouns are she/her. I'm super thankful to everyone who's already given their support. I'm happy to answer any good faith questions if you have them.

@nicholasmc1 It's a nice approach. I think we still tend to get on awake instead, but that drawer might make this approach easy enough to swap over (and probably get slight perf benefits too?)

@aspenforster I've definitely been annoyed by it, but sometimes find it useful when I want to move an alarm 20 mins earlier and that crosses the hour or similar. Not sure it's worth the confusion the rest of the time though...

I lost my job today & I'm looking for work! I'm a damn good Unity programmer, with multiple highly-regarded shipped commercial games on desktop & mobile, including The Warlock of Firetop Mountain. Can also design! Looking to start maybe a month or so from now. Help a girl out 💕

@forbiddencactus @thomas_brophy Yup. I've definitely sped things up by using a bunch of floats on a class and doing all the matrix math myself rather than using a unity Matrix that does theoretically the same thing.
