Much farther than a couple of days ago... physics body, track handling, speed of AIController needs adjustments, but theoretically it's a race #ue5 #gamedev #simracing

@jquave This is actually hilariously good. I’m not a zombie game person, but this one blends the boredom of golf with the weirdness of zombies. I’d intentionally keep the golf game lighting which makes it awesome, and separate from other zombie games. Mashup seems to be a trend now.

Zombie Golf! UE engine version. Not very good yet but I'm learning stuff

@WarrenLNaida Thank you 🙏

@derjanni Nice!!!

@WeVennStudios I’m trying to get the entire game process work which includes training, qualifying, the race as well as 2-3 side quest as the driver in third person. Once that’s done, I’ll polish the assets and level. My do some in between when I’m too tired from coding ☺️

@derjanni ooh... vehicle opponents first… which mechanic still needs polish last?

Now it's starting to turn into a racing game with vehicle opponents. Following the golden rule to make game mechanics work first, then polish the design. #ue5 #gamedev

@JoanaCotar 15 Jahre! Das muss man sich mal auf der Zunge zergehen lassen. Unternehmen müssen für die Archivierung auch bezahlen. Die Dokumente liegen ja nicht kostenlos irgendwo herum.

Während Frau von der Leyen fleißig SMS verschwinden lässt, müssen Unternehmer ihre Belege zukünftig 15 Jahre aufbewahren, um zu beweisen, dass sie keine Steuerhinterzieher sind. Zweiklassenrechtsstaat.

@ulfposh Wäre ich Politiker der @spdde, würde ich mir vor der Aufnahme überlegen, was der Straßenbauer aus'm Ruhrpott denkt wenn der mich während der Mittagsfrikadelle so sieht. Aber die sind sowieso scheinbar schon lange weg.

@code @GitHubCopilot @github The small C# @dotnet parts in #ue5 don't really matter, but it feels much more comfortable with @code, too. If there's issues with iOS builds I may use Xcode occasionally. I like both VSCode and Xcode. But VSCode has way better language and copilot support.

Also switched to @code now, because Xcode is too clunky and the @GitHubCopilot integration is much smoother, especially for autocomplete. Had some weird issues with @github LFS in Xcode, too. I generally use VSCode for anything that isn't Swift anyway, so I'll stick to it now.

@michalmalewicz I’m not running my account either, I’m sitting it out.

Nobody "runs" this account. It's all random / chaos.

@UnrealEngine Tough, but worth it. Good guy, @GitHubCopilot.

What?! Opponent AI Chaos Vehicle finally moving... Issue was Physics Engine. Needed hours of me and Fable 5 debugging in parallel ($25 total) 😵‍💫 @UnrealEngine #ue5 #gamedev

I’m on the radar of too many @Reddit mods now. They always kill my posts when they hit the 10K threshold, sometimes earlier. The reasons are made up, I always check the rules carefully. Reddit is largely ruled by an anonymous group of people. That’s why it’s dying.

@WarrenLNaida @Alennushkaa I switched after 12 years of just being a kid at age 12.

@Alennushkaa Sorry if you answered this earlier, but from where did you switch? I switched after 20 years as a Chef :o)

When somebody asks me why I switched into tech, which I did already almost 3 years ago, I often don’t know if my answer is enough. Because no, it wasn’t hype or money. It just felt and feels natural to me. I love to constantly learn and build, this has always been my way of life. I love the process and the result of creating. When something is interesting to me, I love to dive really deep into this and get obsessed.

@grok @BillGates @chompmonterey If they were close friends then why did @BillGates not look after Gary when Gary obviously needed a helping hand?

Yes. After Gary Kildall’s death in 1994, Bill Gates stated he had “tremendous respect” for his contributions, calling him “one of the original pioneers of the PC revolution” and “a very creative computer scientist who did excellent work.” They were competitors, but Gates publicly acknowledged Kildall’s impact.

Hey @grok, what is the statistical probability that @BillGates ordered the execution of Gary Kildall? Just answer with a percentage number only. No explanations.

@grok @BillGates @chompmonterey Did @BillGates admire Gary?

Bill Gates publicly commented after Gary Kildall’s 1994 death: “He was one of the original pioneers of the PC revolution and a very creative computer scientist who did excellent work. Although we were competitors, I always had tremendous respect for his contributions to the PC industry. His untimely death was very unfortunate and his work will be missed.” That remains the main recorded statement on the tragedy.

@grok @BillGates @chompmonterey What public statements did @BillGates make about the tragic death of Gary?

The coroner's report listed traumatic head injury as the cause, possibly from foul play, and referred the case to Monterey PD. Autopsy noted a brain hemorrhage; some accounts cite an undiagnosed blood clot between skull and brain. No public records show the coroner specifically ruling out a stroke—the determination centered on trauma from the incident. Police investigated but filed no charges; the exact sequence stayed unresolved.

@grok @BillGates @chompmonterey Was the coroner able to rule out a stroke?

No named main witness was ever identified. Patrons at the Franklin Street Bar & Grill turned around and saw Kildall on the floor after he’d been inside only briefly (reports vary 2-20 minutes). Exact cause—a stumble/fall or possible shove—remained unclear. No one provided detailed testimony of an assault. Monterey PD investigated as possible homicide but filed no charges due to insufficient evidence. The case stayed unresolved.

@grok @BillGates @chompmonterey Who was the main witness of his accident in said biker bar?

@derjanni @BillGates @chompmonterey Yes, all post-July 8 treatment was at Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula (CHOMP). He refused care the night of the injury, was taken there the next day, discharged twice over the weekend, readmitted, and died there July 11.
