Anyone here experienced in configuring none-http long-lifed TCP services on AWS who can point me in the direction of some resources? I did do a test a while back but the latency was horrendous.

Number of possible characters is a wild metric because so many of the combinations are bad but they are technically possible. For example, in Mirrorstone we currently have: - 2 body types - 3 skin tones - 5 hair colours - 5 hair styles - 5 beard styles 2x3x5x5x5 = 750 possible characters.

We added tile inspection to our Modestly Multiplayer Online RPG. Lots of work is still to be done but every additional feature gets us closer. #gamedev #rust #bevy #bevyengine #mmo #rpg

I loved the original picocad. Such a shame my current project is firmly in the 2D space 😅

Been a while since I posted a mirrorstone screenshot. I've been hard at work on stream updating the map format to be editable with tiled. This has included a lot of wmrework around the way buildings are handled. #gamdev #indiedev #mmo #rpg #bevy

It's a good friend's wedding today. I'm currently traveling to their venue with my own fiancée. As a result, there won't be a gamedev stream tonight. Enjoy the bank holiday y'all!

Instagram is doing a survey of users for data that they definitely already have from tracking. Also, they're using an android phone line that's been discontinued for so long that it's last phone was released in 2014 (nexus 6p)

So I think the thing that annoys me most about the recently announced #beatles movie is that none of the actors cast as the Beatles are Scouse. This wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't for the fact that almost every time there's a Scouse character, they never stay Scouse for the adaptation.

Its so cool to me that we made it so you can write scripts for mirrorstone in lua because it means we can do all sorts of complex logic like having a quest require you to log out.

Apologies for having gone missing the past few days. Unfortunately, as I said on Tuesday I've not been feeling great. What I hadn't said is that my oldest cat Jamie (19, pictured) died wednesday night. Obviously I'm devastated. #lifeupdate

While I normally stream tuesday evenings. On account of the new job still settling and the fact I need to continue to think about the scripting issues we raised in last nights stream, I think I'll skip tonights stream to keep up the quality of content. tldr. no stream tonight
