Hey Mr. "I'm in charge of BYOND now", is your new policy to allow DBZ branded zeta rips back on the hub? http://www.byond.com/games/S10Games/DragonKi. Hoping to carry this place, along with the other two re-skinned zeta rips http://www.byond.com/games/Lizard_Sphere_X/1 & http://www.byond.com/games/Archonex/PhoenixSunderedEarth that currently make up majority of the player base around here? If so, give me 10 minutes, I have a few hub submissions to make, after adding a pay2win button.

We don't police rips or actively police entries; all we do is comply with the legal obligation to handle valid DMCA requests, and hold authors to act in good faith in what they post. Anyone who posts content they think may draw a complaint does so at their own risk. If you have games you want to publish, I would recommend making sure they're original in terms of content, and then you should be free and clear. I truly hope you do have an original game in the works, because you've created some incredibly popular games in the past and it would be nice to see your design skills put to good work again.

Good to know you intend to uphold those strict quality guidelines, that have made BYOND the biggest success in the gaming industry, waitwhat

Just a heads up, unless you have some secret version of the web client, far more advanced than the current version, this game you're promoting (which we'll just refer to as the failure formerly known as NEStalgia 2.0), you're basically advertising an existence that will in no way be possible (mobile/multi-platform/huge player counts). Here an incomplete quick list of issues I had with the webclient, in less than an hour of messing around with it, that made it completely unplayable in multiple projects. It also seems just as broken (or more-so) in a version of SS13 I tried playing. Not sure how its even legal to be selling products on such false pretenses, but that does appear to be a core mechanic of Kick-starter's existence. glhf

I'm happy to look into any specific bug reports about the webclient, and have done so on a regular basis. You mentioned layering issues but didn't say which ones. Macros ought to be loading (they've been tested in lots of scenarios), but if something specific is failing it'd be good to have a test case that shows that.
|
I've been banned from bug reports for a decade now, and don't use the 499+ versions of BYOND, but logging in to this for a quick test (SS13) http://www.byond.com/play/159014470. Walking around for a bit, the background/tiles clearly become corrupted in some way, drawing things that shouldn't be there. The audio (music) seems to have cut out after a few seconds, though I can steal hear random sound effects from messages. And after a short while, the entire map portion of the screen just blacked out on me, and doesn't seem to be coming back.
EDIT: Also, it seems the web client re-downloads the resource package every time you connect, not sure if that's truly a bug, or just a technical limitation, but not exactly a desirable feature either way. |
Sounds like that server is running an older version.
The resource package shouldn't have to re-download; that can cache. I haven't had issues with the caching. |
@ RayCast()
http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/RaycastHit2D.html This engine is currently lacking in more important pixel movement related support, unless its been added in 500+. Simple things like being able to calculate and move at angles, even a simple redesign to the controls, so you can use more than one movement button at a time by default, etc. This is all stuff I've already had to build into Box Zombies to get a simple top-down 2D shooter working. EDIT: That's also a nearly 5 year old post being bumped, such speedy progress made around here =P |
I want to offer to buy byond. Im serious on this. Please private message me the price you want for it.

How the fuck is a year long forum ban warranted over a single mistake that I wasn't even warned about. Dude you were being a complete and total dickhead earlier, my guy. You totally deserve it. I genuinely doubt it'll be enforced the whole time if you apologize but still. |
While I agree Lummy has mostly terrible mods, you didn't deserve a warning because again, you were being a total royal asshat and immediately attacking everyone blindly. You don't just get a warning for attacking people.
I've seen logs of everything that happened and you're very much the angry factor in all this. Take a break from the internet and chill for a day or two until you're in a clear headspace again. <3 |
I'm discussing this situation with Kozuma and Nadrew privately now, so we can take it from there.

Hey there LummoxJR, not sure whether you are up to date with The Last Conflict development, but there has been a recent disapproval by steam on the subscription feature. There were many newcomers on steam who highly anticipated the release date which was supposed to be today (15 September). If possible, you should probably get in touch with Darker Emerald on resolving this matter. https://discordapp.com/invite/wsWfM9u
Hope to hear from you soon (: |
