`~~number` is usually faster than `floor(number)` (doesn't work the same on negative numbers)

Blinking bicycle lights make it harder to see you, not easier.

Step 33: Trash your entire game and rebuild it from scratch in a new engine. Good bye GameMaker, hello Unreal Engine ! #scapevale #gamedev #indiedev

What do we do now?

Step 34: Network replication working, persistent server-side storage of players, inventories, and a basic UI for the inventory (which is replicated over the network). Small steps, but my first in UE4 and I'm loving it so far.

Step 36: Working on the chunking + procedural terrain again. Got networked inventories, deployables and interactable resources back in already! Once this is done I'm almost back at where I left GMS2.. :)

Step 37: Its been a while (busy with other things), but here we go: Block placement, procedural terrain working again, and since we're using #UnrealEngine 4.26, why not throw in the awesome water and volumetric cloud system? GFX are WIP. #indiedev #gamedev

Step 38: Add Michał Mroszczak's awesome birch trees in motion.. As we say in Dutch; "The eyes want something too" #unrealengine #indiedev #gamedev #UE4 #voxelart #magicavoxel

Step 39: Improving the building system. Using voxel blocks to generate nice, complete meshes is harder that it seemed in my head...

Me, calling my insurance company: "I would like to cancel my world-wide travel insurance please." She proceeds to ask me "Could you tell me the reason you're cancelling your travel insurance?" I thought she was joking. She was not.

Step 40: Building shapes (wall / foundation / ceiling and more to come) are neatly functional. Improving render pipeline and added some new sweet textures #gamedev #indiedev #voxelart #screenshotsaturday Scapevale

Step 41: You know what this is... Re-starting the terrain generation. Luckily my old #GameMakerStudio2 implementation was already C++ (and Javascript) so porting it to #ue4 is going to be EZ PZ. #perlin #simplex #noisefunctions #gamedev #indiedev #procedural #procgen

Step 41.5 (I need to save step 42 for something better). Remember the old screenshot? This is it now! Stay tuned for the closed alpha of Scapevale #scapevale #gamedev #indiedev #voxel #pixelart #survival x.com/RobQuistNL/sta…

Building stability feels decent! Raiding people suddenly became fun. Still working out the physics framedrops :+) #indiedev #gamedev #UE4 #voxel #voxelart #pixelart #multiplayer Scapevale
