This is a pretty big hobby milestone for me-- a real corridor & chamber solution that works with PCG partitions. Now I can experiment with more interesting generators for the corridors and chambers themselves, and interior/exterior features.

A lot of open worlds are just excessive set dressing. You don’t often see open worlds that are built with the intent to support future work. I think BL4’s world is going to keep giving for a long time to come.

Rolled credits on #Borderlands4 last night. Gearbox built a super impressive, layered open world and filled it with lots of fun things to see and do. It’s a rock solid platform on which they can build DLC and maybe even new features.

NvPresent is part of NVIDIA's drivers, so the problem may be downstream of UE.

💡 Today's insight: "timberpunk."

I don't know why this didn't occur to me earlier but it captures in one word much of the #Thief adjacent aesthetic I've had in my head for my dungeon crawling game. And it gets #ChatGPT closer to my target than anything else I've tried.

Despite easily being the most British fighting vehicle ever developed, the mock-Tudor AT-AT programme was sadly cancelled due to budgetary concerns

The Old Wellington Inn in Manchester, being jacked up on stilts to the new street level during redevelopment. It definitely looks like it's about to waddle out of the picture.

Did I mention the 'behemoth' free expansion for Bulwark coming later this month, will also feature the ability for your regular surveyor to be upgraded to a higher tier?

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge?

It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.
