Does anyone familiar with using SubViewports in #Godot 3D scenes have a way to prevent the Godot Editor from automatically switching back to 2D? It's pretty annoying - you're working in 3D, but the editor keeps switching back to 2D when you touch UI elements...

Yesterday evening I played Powerwash Simulator 2 for FOUR HOURS STRAIGHT while finishing off the Project Haily Mary audiobook (which is also awesome). I'm living my best life.

This week has been the first *proper* full-time week I've spent on my game (quick plug: tinyurl.com/angaballs) and it's been quite gruelling. Spent most of it fighting with some pain-in-the-ass UI and a buff-system I'm not entirely sure will work 🫠

I'm making my way through Andy Weir's Project Hail Mary at the moment. It's fun and accessible - I'm enjoying it. I'm hoping the movie version will be good also.

In other news, I got to this point in Baby Steps, got right across to the other side of the spade, before it tipped over and sent me falling (to where I spent 30 mins getting up away from). I don't want to play this game any more. 😫
