I think the most important ability when it comes to gamedev (especially solo) is being able to tell when a system is working well enough for now and moving on to other less developed areas of the game (other systems, narrative, art, etc.). I think what breaks many people is spending weeks and months fleshing out a single system to perfection, only to realize that you need to rework it later when it doesnt really fit with the rest of the game.

EXACTLY. i've seen it happen to so many developers that i talk and work with that its ridicolous how many actually fall into this trap of perfectionism. I think the best way to get rid of this line of thinking that everything needs to be perfect all the time is by doing lots and lots of gamejams. There you just don't got the time to actually work to perfection so it forces you to jump from one problem to another.

My modo is don't spend any effort on other systems / art until you have a fun working game mechanic. Once you have a fun mechanic test it with people to verify. If its fun with bad art and ascetics then it will be that much better with polish... Or else you just wasted effort on things that will get scraped eventually. @@jembawls

Until your game is done (or like 90% there) it's basically impossible to know what "perfect" even means for any given asset / system / whatever. You can sit there and come up with an idea of perfect, but you're just pulling it out of your ass. Maybe the thing you pull out of your ass ends up being pretty close to correct, or maybe not. The point is, even if you dedicate years to getting some sub system "perfect," your idea of perfect is extremely likely to change down the line. Except now you're in an even worse position than if you'd only spent a month on the system. Because now instead of considering throwing away a month of work, you're having to consider throwing away years of your life. So you end up with things in your game that aren't a good fit simply because you've spent too much time on them to remove them. On the other end of the spectrum, sometimes you cant know if a system is a bad fit for your game, or if it just needs a little bit more work. Exactly how much effort to put into a proof of concept is extremely hard to figure out. There's no way through except to just learn to trust your instincts, and to get extremely comfortable leaving things half-finished. If you have deadlines, leave AMPLE time for having to go back to systems you thought were good and reworking them.

It seems you should be able to do collisions with just one TileMap/TileSet. Add a second physics layer to the TileSet, set its Collision Layer/Mask accordingly. Then create Alternative Tiles for those you want to use on the upper floor. Paint the two Physics layers onto your tiles and alternative tiles according to which level they are supposed to be.

For ramps, instead of setting the dampen modifier directly, i would suggest setting the angle of incline and a surface material. Later during gameplay the dampen modifier would be calculated from those. The advantage is that you can always modify the global material to affect all surfaces using that material.
@jembawls
Жыл бұрын
Initially I had the dampen derived from the incline, but preferred the extra control by manually setting it myself on the tiles. The material for global change is a decent idea but I don't anticipate my game having many different surface material types and so I'm not too sure it makes sense for me to go that route. But I think having some way to more easily, globally adjust dampen ratio is a potential quality of life improvement to my workflow that I hadn't considered 👍

I have implemented path finding in a 2.5d setting exactly with the restrictions and problems you describe before. What I did which you usually can't do in traditional games but which is really not a problem at all in a 2D game is to just generate a directed graph from the tile information. I wrote a function which you can pass in two tiles and it returns you a cost of walking from the first to the second and then you just flood fill from every entrance and npc spawn position, populating a graph. After that you can just use Dijkstra on the graph. This way you can even account for ramp walking speed or swimming speed for example. You could use some A* heuristic either with just basic Manhattan or with something custom that tries to encompass the fake veritcality but you really don't need any of that. Running basic Dijkstra on an optimized directed graph is fast enough for a few dozen or even a few hundred NPCs especially because you can run that in threads. The only other difficulty you might encounter with such an approach is dynamic changes in the environment. As you might know most games use a hacky implementation where the AI does close proximity path finding based on actual colliders but uses its navmesh for the general long distance path finding. In this case it might be smarter to just build the graph in a way you can easily adjust it. Maybe link graph nodes to obstacles like doors that can be unlocked so you can dynamically add and remove the nodes from the graph. This approach became unwieldy in my case because in addition I had to build something that could handle the extra layer of pathfinding that could pathfind across multiple maps (over 3000 different connected maps between 100² and 200² in size each actually) and that made the dynamic part a lot harder. But even in that scenario this approach scaled well enough to run dozens of agents in real time. The graph generation for my case was too much to run in realtime. It took minutes which wasn't too bad to do at build-time and I could have had it running in the background and pause it if I needed navigation on already explored areas but that gets messy very quickly so in that case just a few minutes to generate the graph when building the game was fine. But if you don't do navigation across multiple maps (which is especially slow because maps in 2D games like this are not related spatially so you can't really use an A* heuristic and have to Dijkstra everything for the search) you can easily generate the navigation graph on the fly on map load. My path finding graph with 3000 maps grew exponentially because I needed to precalculate every entrance and exit on every map and all their combinations across maps and run a regular path finding search for every entrance and exit pair on every map so you can imagine how many magnitudes faster just a single map is going to be even on large and complex maps. I dare to say that depending on how large and complex your levels might end up being you could even run this in the main loop without a significant frame drop if you really had to (but you of course really shouldn't do that).

Like many Unity refugees, I was curious how you felt about Godot and you didn't discuss that much. That said, good job, you're making a game, I know firsthand how hard that is to do and the invaluable practice you're getting doing it. At the risk of souring your creative flow, I could suggest taking a pause from being elbow-deep in the engine to consider the direction you want your game to go. Systems like a dialogue system or a translation system can probably wait until you got the core gameplay loop together in an enjoyable place you want it to be. But, if the goal is just to get used to using Godot, you're already 100% successful in those aims, about the only thing to look out for is becoming too insular in your processes. To combat this, you could make some time to see what other Godot developers are doing, revisit the documentation, even see some advanced tutorials. Anyway, this probably comes off as a little mansplainy, I'm not sure if you wanted feedback on what I just watched or not, but there it is.

It's not an easy thing to implement but rather than put hardcoded paths into NPC movements, instead create an "intent" system where you can instruct the NPC what you want it to do, and your code then tries its best to do this. You can define paths to make NPC routing easier as it both simplifies path finding a lot, allows pseudo-3D to fits in easily as the path mesh is separate to the display (far too many systems the display of things is all there is and then awful work arounds have to be put in place to work around this). The extra big thing is that this makes scripting NPC actions considerably more intuitive and flexible. For example, it means that you can script an NPC to "go pick up something to eat" then "go sit and eat this", etc. You can expand the possible actions as you implement them, testing is easier, and the NPCs feel much less like robots on rails.

Are your earlier dev streams saved on youtube or twitch? I'd love to actually watch everything from the beginning and see how you approach everything. I've been doing some C# learning and would love to start doing some basic game dev (it's been a dream of mine since I was like 5) but I have such a hard time actually getting started and figuring out what to do first.

Yes! All my streams are saved on my VODs channel and I have a playlist for all the game dev stuff. Link in description of this video!

Re: localization I'm really familiar with how Android does it, which is have any and all user-visible strings in its own resource file(s). This way, all you need to do to localize the text is to go in and make text files for each language you want to support. The downside to this is, it removes all context from those text strings, so doing stuff like hiring out the translation can lead to errors. Looking forward to playing with how Godot does it.

You need a animationtree with a statemachine for 45 degrees animation. It makes all animation rasier to manage.

Thanks for the video. I currently also have a foundation for a game a built but reached the exact same stage you are at but I'm reaching a bit of a block with level design and writing and would love to get some tips on how to approach that. Especially how you tie together the game mechanics you have with a story and level design.

Given you have experience in Unity and Unreal, would appreciate when you talk about implementing features that you mention your experience in the other engines. Especially right now when people are trying to evaluate if the value is worthwhile...
