@xtaldave It’s freakish. It’s like they think they have no culture or history of their own so they have to glom onto anything else they may have even the most tenuous link to.

It would be like us saying “yeah I’m a quarter Saxon and seven-sixteenths Viking, so I’m going to raze a village to the ground next week then watch the Chelsea match”.

@arclight I wish. I wouldn’t have aged anywhere near as much.

@jumile if that were the case all deliveries would be crap. But no, it’s just the craptacular shitshow that is Hermes.

@arclight While Godot does some things well, hiding signal definitions in the .tscn files is not one of them. I find it’s more useful (and nicer for SCM) to define them in code with `connect()`.

Parcel received *checks notes* over three weeks late.

@arclight One weirdness is the tab-heavy context-sensitive nature of the UI. Once that is grasped, and one has developed the muscle-memory to check the state of the various panels depending on what you're working on (or trying to) it becomes somewhat easier to parse, but I agree that it's not immediately intuitive compared to some IDEs.

If you're using 4.x, it now supports external windows so panels can be detached from the main window which may go some way to mitigating some of these unexpected oddities.

@statsguy Glad to hear you’re on the mend. 👍

I could easily believe that this is not a typo.

@xtaldave He’s a short-sighted two-faced lying wank, like the rest of ‘em.

@xtaldave Only as a wildcard.

@andrewt

@davep It’s all a new learning experience. 😎

Apologies @davep, I thought I was following you! *waves*

Is it a Friday? It feels like a Friday.

@arclight As an aficionado of old-skool 2D pixelated shenanigans, Unity was horrible to work with (or against, as it felt like).
