Something changed in main.cpp between Godot 4.3 and 4.5.1, and now scripted resources loaded with the project theme cause debugger to report bogus errors on startup :/

They still work fine, there is just an validity check failing in the scene debugger code for no good reason.

Is Team17 using ChatGPT to post shitty unhelpful non-answers on support forums for a game that they publish? I guess no point reporting bugs then.

steamcommunity.com/app/1763250/...
A post by Team17_Helper [developer], from 16 Feb 5:47pm: Hey Elendril! Thank you so much for taking the time to report the two bugs you encountered. Your feedback is super important to us! We really appreciate you pointing out the issue with "Golden Clover + Good Fortune" — it sounds frustrating that it stops you from dashing effectively while the projectile is in the air. We can see how the same issue with "Shadow Strike" and "Marked for Death" could be a bit of a headache too. We're sorry for the inconvenience. But rest assured, we’ve shared your report with our team for some deeper investigation. While we can’t provide a specific timeline for when a fix might be ready, we’re really hopeful that a resolution will come soon. Thanks again for your understanding and patience while we work on this! Let us know if you need anything else. Regards, Team17 Support

I wonder how many people realize that the 2D preview viewport in the Godot editor is scaled by the editor scale, and so is not an exact representation of what the runtime will look like in terms of scale and sizes. And, in case of pixel-perfect details, they may even look wrongly aliased, broken.

"All FOSS maintainers keep telling me that they want to evaluate, plan, brainstorm, and only then execute, in the most reasonable way, but my LLM doesn't get bothered with such pesky steps and just spits out perfect code. Why won't you merge it again?"

github.com/ocaml/ocaml/...
That is something I’ve been pondering myself. I tried approaching several projects this way, trying to take care of things that bother me. The reaction is similar across the board. Folks want a nuanced and thorough discussion, as well as buy-in, before an implementation is submitted. This is incompatible with what I found to be the most efficient way of using AI, though. It doesn’t need that much input. I can kick off a project just by telling it to add DWARF debugging information to OCaml, such that breakpoints and source code listings, as well as variable printing, works in lldb and gdb. I tell it to follow the practices of the OCaml code base, and to make sure new tests are compatible with existing test infrastructure. Then I add that I want all new code to be thoroughly tested.

This is a pandemic of self-inflicted sense of self-worthlessness, of giving up on yourself and your own spark of brilliance. We are making our very souls sick, at the time when we should be nurturing them.

Where do average joes stating "nearly everyone is using AI in their work already" get their statistics? Every time I read a line like this, my heart sinks a bit and I feel like being gaslit that the sun is actually green.

😶‍🌫️ Things are getting busier in my little sound library manager (too busy perhaps?), which I dubbed SLAMY because I have no imagination :/

I'm pushing it slightly beyond what I need because I want to cover some basics, so it may be a bit more useful to others. Shouldn't be long now...
A screenshot of a desktop application titled "SLAMY - Sound Library Manager". It features a vibrant yellow, black, and dark blue design. The main areas is split into a listing of some sort, with filters on top; a sidebar with main navigation and other top-level actions; a player area below, with the name and path for the currently selected sound; and a panel with extra details about the currently selected sound, with an orange REMOVE button. In front of all that there is a yellow popup, warning the user about the outcome of file removal.

Come on, Microsoft!

One dude from Croatia managed to code up a blazingly fast and feature-rich file explorer for your operating system from his bedroom, but best you, a global IT conglomerate, can do about horrible performance issues is a glorified hack?

He probably didn't even use A... Oh. Ah.
We’re exploring preloading File Explorer in the background to help improve File Explorer launch performance. This shouldn’t be visible to you, outside of File Explorer hopefully launching faster when you need to use it. If you have the change, if needed there is an option you can uncheck to disable this called “Enable window preloading for faster launch times” in File Explorer’s Folder Options, under View. Looking forward to your feedback! If you do encounter any issues, please file them in the Feedback Hub under Files Folders and Online Storage > File Explorer Performance, or Files Folders and Online Storage > File Explorer.

I wish to some day be able to use Godot's built-in popups and windows without text getting blurry. Rolling out my own to avoid viewport shenanigans is just such a waste of my time.
A screenshot of some UI. Two labels in white are displayed next to each other, against dark yellow background. Both labels read "<All Collections>". The one below is noticeably blurrier than the one above, with extra semi-transparent pixels going in vertical direction.

Every other time I search for some generic word, and the first result I get is some IT startup that wants to sound "cool" and "hip", and not some "Global Financial Solutions Ltd" nomenclature word soup. It frustrates me to no end.

Stop stealing language, you fuckers. Go back to your niche. Away!
A screenshot of a Google search for a single word, "plaid". It shows the first result which is a homepage of a fintech company called "Plaid".

🤓 My last cryptic post? I just figured out a way to create and run GLOBAL editor and project manager PLUGINS in #Godot!

Limitations apply, but for editor and PM enhancements it's perfectly workable. This is mostly a proof-of-concept, but may grow into something, if there is any interest 👀

Links 👇
A screenshot of the Godot editor with a project open. The project appears to be empty, as its title also suggests, with nothing in the viewport and only the default icon in the filesystem. On the bottom panel, however, there is a non-standard Playpad button, which is active and the corresponding panel is visible, featuring some sort of a code editor.

In The Labyrinth of Time, entering the Ziggurat without a lantern is supposed to show a black screen. However, the developers put in the wrong filename for the black screen, so it fails to render, showing a black screen instead
A black screen, captioned "You walk into a dark place."

So here's the thing...
A screenshot of two application windows. In the background there is a Windows Terminal window with a sole console tab open. In that tab there are startup logs for the official stable release of Godot 4.5.1. There is an extra line afterwards, which reads "PM Addons Hook is READY!". In the foreground there is the Godot editor project manager window in its default, empty state. Below the usual UI there is a label that reads "YOU HAVE BEEN HACKED!" in bold letters.

This is the psychopath kind of behavior. Just smashing someone bloody while yelling "Why. Don't. You. Love. Me." to punctuate every hit.

Per: www.quippd.com/writing/2025...
A paragraph of text that reads: During the call, Mozilla also doubled down on AI, confirming that volunteers would be unable to disable AI translations across the entire Mozilla knowledge-base, with the American English version of articles serving as the blessed, canonical version.

Lack of light pollution looks so ominous
A night time photo of a far view from some higher ground. An illuminated road bends in the bottom part of the screen. The distant view is split into two halves. On the left, a skyline of some town is visible, lighting the night air. On the right, there is intense darkness with only outlines of clouds showing through.

Belgrade cyberpunk.
A night time photo of some kiosk on a cobbled sidewalk. The kiosk is glowing with pink and bluish white neon light, which radiates in cold damp air. The light bounces of a small crooked round garbage bin standing next to the kiosk. Warm yellow luminescence reflects from a wall of a building in the background.

Night time cheeks
A photo of a statue of a baked male figure, placed on a toll column, taken in night conditions from a low upwards angle, from about a 5 o'clock angle, showcasing prominently his buttocks area.

With more projects under my belt, my views on what should be provided by the engine out of the box change. Both games and apps in 2025 require a lot of baseline user features to be acceptable — in terms of preferences and accessibility alike.

Community projects can help, as can your own snippets.
