Mark with a Z

I’m guessing the reasons Valve chose Arch are mostly related to ability to build and maintain a distro based on it. On SteamOS, Valve is responsible for the system working. On plain Arch, a lot of that is on you.

So maybe stay if you want to take the challenge and learn. You already installed it so thet’s something. Or switch to a normal distro if you’d rather not bother.

For flatpak, it’s a package format for distributing “apps”, that works on about any distro out there. Most of the time it’s fine, but steam is an exception. Don’t use flatpak steam, the sandboxing breaks it.

Thanks, but no

Me too, but now I want that wavy map projection

I’d like to know what map projection bends a straight line into that

Code blocks are for displaying raw text, ignoring all formatting.

I guess just try gnome and then mint cinnamon if that doesn’t work out. Both are simple, but different kinds of simple.

Edit: yea I didn’t read the post perfectly the first time. Might still be a good idea, at least I’d try gnome first.

jfc what’s wrong with people

I find it impressive that nobody honked.

Communities generally spawn on whatever general purpose instance, and I’m fine with it because the only other option is usually nothing at all. Maintaining an instance takes hard work and money.

Sometimes there is enough will to spawn a specific instance. For example, rimmers have their own mbin instance. That’s the exception, though.

The only encouraging thing I can say here is Be the change you wish to see. If you want an instance to exist, run it yourself!

We have enough memes and politics and definitely US politics for three lifetimes.

Here’s a bunch that I enjoyed, or wish for, or just found by browsing the community list:

I thought I had done it, but I have only played it since after it was made impossible. I guess I didn’t

on a base object of type ‘null instance’."

Null instance means there’s no instance. If $Beacon gives you this, it means that such node doesn’t exist.

As a side note, I dislike hardcoding nodes like this. Consider getting the beacon instance beforehand with @onready var or such. If the beacon doesn’t exist, you’ll then see the error immediately instead of later when the script tries to use it.

makes the character rotate around the world origin.

You’re using position, which is the relative position to the parent node. I don’t know how your node structure look like, but chances are that you should be using global_position (absolute world position) instead.

and then adding or subtracting to its X and Y positions with beacon’s movement keys

oh boy. When find yourself building something like your own position tracking code instead of using builtin systems, it’s best to scrap it and rethink what you need.

how to either make TestChar use that that variable from Beacon’s script

Same was as position: look_at(beacon.look_here_P1). Add a class name for the beacon script and type your variable as such (var beacon: Beacon = ...) to get editor hints.

Protip: speaking from experience, you might want to enable this setting:

Making Beacon emit a signal every time it moves in a particular direction and then using those signals to update a Vector3 variable in TestChar’s script doesn’t seem to work

Rube Goldberg machine much? It should work though. Your problem is probably still relative vs absolute position.

Hope this helps

Adolf Hitler was a controversial german politician. He is considered in large part responsible for the second world war, and especially the holocaust.

Hitler is generally considered quite a bad person, and it is a common trope to use a time machine to go back in time to kill him before his rise to power.

Grant doesn’t need explanation as everybody knows mythbusters.

That’s not a question.

Rip. Killed for a “sHaRe BuTtOn”

What I got is that they’re trying to move to OEMs, like windows PCs. Either way, switching to a PC platform seems doomed, because who would choose that when Steam exists.

Well actually, so do I. Uh, kill PC gaming, then…?
