I think I fixed the iso-sorting glitches, but it's using an extra pass over the object list which feels wrong and dirty. Need to have a think about it more, and maybe a peek at the HoH disassembly again. At least I know what the problem is now though.

I still have to do the fucking llm hackathon though. No one on the team actually wants to do it.

I tried really hard to keep a lid on the LLM scepticism on that call, really I did.

Fixed one of my iso-sorting problems. Still glitches briefly if the player rides a platform past a tall block, but not if they jump past that block at the same height. Weird.

I find the whoop-yeah enthusiasm of the corporate presentation presenters quite disturbing.

Unlike the presenters, I find myself less than excited about the weasel-worded return to office vibes in the presentation.

I see the streaming companies are all innovating hard to make their products worse than torrents again in the name of number go up.

How silly of me to assume the post office might have been open at lunchtime.

Stressful work day ahead. Things I wrote are being remote installed in user premises, and we had to make last-minute changes I'm not entirely convinced about. Fingers crossed.

First one did not go well, because no one thought to give the remote person Administrator (yes, it's Windows) access despite repeatedly being told it was essential.

@klord Did your Firebat box come with DDR4 or DDR5?

nivrig,
@nivrig@mastodon.social avatar

@klord Thinking more of the power usage. The one I'm looking at just says "16G" ... I'll see if theres others that spec the memory type. Cheers.

Looking about for a new, smaller NASbox.

I like that the USB ports are on the back so I can velcro my M2 RAID enclosure to the top easily.

Be nice to find a DDR5 one like that though.

I could get a tiny one this and bung it and the drive enclosure in a uATX case I have lying around 🤔 It wouldn't matter then where the USB ports are.

Gonna leave it there for now. I'm really fecking tired today and there's burgers that need grilling soon.

Mo' physics, 'mo assumptions proved wrong.

Added "supporting" objects with individual gravity, which will be the basis for moving platforms and maybe also lifts. Free bonus iso-sort glitching too.

I'm not actually sure this multiple block stacking and pushing stuff will be needed, but it sort of falls out naturally from the physics I do need.

nivrig,
@nivrig@mastodon.social avatar

It just worked :)

Platforms will need a "hover" flag or similar so the player gravity movement won't affect them is all.

Camera is janky still, I haven't looked at it really.

Currently prevented from doing any work thanks to the IT Prevention Department.

nivrig,
@nivrig@mastodon.social avatar

Prevention Update: still prevented, and IT are now bickering over who's responsibility it is to unprevent it.

It's not their fault. Removal of local admin access was mandated from on high without a plan for people who need local admin to do their work.

The Facepalm is strong today.
