My experience with Godot ramp collisions atm
Corgis have an extremely low center of gravity and the density of a dead star.
PERFECT for skateboarding! 😇

still rough, but thinking path follow nodes might be clean user controllable way to do designable rail system .. maybe.. as long as i can figure out how to maintain the linear velocity post grind with the new direction taking into affect

Phantom Cam from @marcusskov.com is great, saved me a week of messing with camera :P Using a trick he mentioned on the forum for angles (github.com/ramokz/phant...) #experiments #godot #skate

well finally got multiple levels setup
Learned that Roblox doesnt let you dynamically swap parts of levels like sub scenes, and doing .Parent = x is performance hit
But if you do Stage2.CFrame = BlankPartAtRightPosition.CFrame , Cframe swapping is cheap on server

might be more useful with sliders instead of presets? Thinking of killing presets for sliders

well the curve works, tho realised that ill have to put an invisible stage on top or something since it cant draw past the graphics view (so curves that extend beyond will get clipped)
Will open source it when done tho so PRs welcome

Prototyping a new tool for Houdini , thinking maybe my old last one was overkill. But maybe one to let you just tween some property with an ease would be helpful . Would it be ? Or would it be more useful if it integrated with something else ?
Let me know before I start 😂!

great little article find on smoother camera movement
www.rorydriscoll.com/2016/03/07/f...
TLDR a:lerp(b, 1 - math.exp(-lambda * dt))
makes a nice little velocity based lerp
Combined here with a checker that does averaging of all characters in the scene's centroid + boundry box size

in our little electron app at work i redid how DoTween pro works but in a TS web enviroment (so had to make my own redux state/ guid updates wee)
Instead of making hour long docs i just did shorts like this to convince people to try it :P

What is the line for you between tech art - engineering ?
Scripts vs classes ? Implementation of assets versus of features ?
I’ll clarify in a reply…
