They just added docs for how to best achieve GUI apps.

It did happen on the highway to my sister. She was in the middle lane but luckily had the space to get to the side. Managed to start it again and get off the highway where it did it again and wouldn’t start after that.

Very scary.

Funny enough, I felt the complete opposite. Loved the shows, especially Atlantis, but found the movie pretty meh.

I’m pretty sure this is possible in their app now but the UX to achieve it is atrocious. I had to follow multiple blog posts to figure it out.

You could grab the pck file the browser downloads and expand it using Godot itself or a Godot CLI tool.

I wonder if Godex[0] could be a fit for you. ECS based Godot, based on 3.x which has much more broad WebGL support.

Not for long on the console front - though costs have yet to be determined.

An active paid asset marketplace, specifically for systems and templates. There is movement on this front, but it's slow.

Right now if you don't want to build it, you have to hope someone is offering it for free - where in Unity there are many options for almost anything you can think of varying quality/price.

It's just such a game changer for prototyping or just being new to game dev.

For networking I use a combination of Godot's RPC commands[0], their new high-level nodes[1][2] and a fork of GodotSteam[3], which passes it all through Steam's INetworkMessages framework.

I’ve been working with Godot 4 on a multiplayer open world survival crafting game for just over a year now - and launched into Early Access back in May[0].

Happy to answer any questions about Godot!

Not often I see UC mentioned on HN. What program are you in?

Agreed. It took weeks of researching to find this term when I was looking to optimize travel time search. Once I did, everything became easier! Ended up forking Open Transit Planner, this was back in 2015. Turned 40 minutes real estate searches into 40ms or so.

I've never heard of anyone comparing to a football field in the Area domain. Of course this is cultural, but at least in the US - the length is what is commonly compared.

Looks cool and I appreciate the different model.

FYI - you mentioned letting free accounts post for now but that doesn't seem to work.

My daughter is five and plays creative by herself on PC. It's easier (for her) to control than the tablet version and she asks to watch Minecraft videos before playing to learn more (she corrected me on the minimum size of a nether portal the other day...)

Not to mention her keyboard and mouse skills are great now.

Prologue for iOS is a Plex audiobook player that is better than any audiobook player has a right to be.

Here's a good guide on how to set up Plex for proper metadata with audiobooks: https://github.com/seanap/Plex-Audiobook-Guide
