strange Loop games |
| 324s |
gents working as game designer here on |
| 326s |
eco and |
| 329s |
well we we have a bit of a mishap |
| 332s |
latest some of the people in that are |
| 335s |
playing on it probably knows about we |
| 338s |
run into some significant breakage over |
| 341s |
the last |
| 342s |
day or two in terms of |
| 344s |
specific bugs that have been popping up |
| 347s |
so |
| 349s |
um |
| 352s |
the server is currently down |
| 354s |
um |
| 355s |
a couple of people that are digging into |
| 358s |
the civics |
| 359s |
some feedback from Jordan in the channel |
| 362s |
as well but it's a bit of a heavier |
| 363s |
breakage or more |
| 366s |
Civic experts |
| 368s |
code wise I'll be kinder |
| 371s |
nothing |
| 372s |
or that weekend that server back online |
| 374s |
as soon as possible but with that |
| 379s |
as an unfortunate |
| 383s |
currents right now I don't really have |
| 385s |
any footage from |
| 387s |
play tests you can go over fortunately |
| 390s |
however we can still |
| 395s |
go through some of the things that we'll |
| 397s |
be looking at and |
| 400s |
um |
| 402s |
some of the side things that I was going |
| 404s |
to go over them |
| 408s |
and things happens and this is why it's |
| 411s |
important to have the play test because |
| 412s |
people are finding things and ways to |
| 414s |
break the server that we don't test for |
| 416s |
so |
| 418s |
Kudos on play testing successfully I |
| 420s |
guess |
| 423s |
over to uh |
| 425s |
to the build here |
| 428s |
where to open up yeah as well |
| 434s |
foreign |
| 439s |
it'll be revived it'll be revived |
| 442s |
um |
| 444s |
we'll have it back don't you worry |
| 447s |
I just don't know which state it's going |
| 448s |
to be back in |
| 453s |
right 14 commenting on we're also trying |
| 456s |
to raise the water level just by a block |
| 458s |
to make sure that that mechanic is |
| 459s |
pristine yeah |
| 461s |
um |
| 462s |
totally |
| 464s |
no so we have uh we've been we've been |
| 468s |
super thrilled to see the result on |
| 470s |
latest General |
| 472s |
parroting it but it's it's been really |
| 475s |
really really nice |
| 479s |
that I heard of I don't think it's here |
| 482s |
it's been really nice to uh to be able |
| 484s |
to get some of the results from it and |
| 486s |
being able to |
| 489s |
fixing a lot of these bugs that have |
| 491s |
been popping up as well and |
| 494s |
with the boats |
| 496s |
um and the fishing troller as far as I |
| 497s |
know should be working now on the |
| 500s |
I think that was emerged yesterday so it |
| 503s |
should be live on the earth branch |
| 506s |
I'll need to take a look if that's not |
| 509s |
the case |
| 510s |
but one of the things that we were going |
| 513s |
to |
| 515s |
or has been a kind of a result |
| 518s |
um that people have been noticing on the |
| 520s |
play test that water is misbehaving a |
| 523s |
little bit more than usual |
| 525s |
and it was one of the things |
| 527s |
bring |
| 528s |
a bit up to speed in terms of what we're |
| 531s |
doing with Walter |
| 532s |
in terms of making it usable for the |
| 535s |
play test as you can see here |
| 539s |
this is not something that's possible on |
| 540s |
the play test at the moment because |
| 542s |
water is |
| 543s |
a little bit less functional than it |
| 546s |
normally is |
| 554s |
uh |
| 557s |
this was the other world |
| 562s |
yeah this was my other side |
| 565s |
um |
| 566s |
so |
| 567s |
Walter has been misbehaving for a bit |
| 569s |
when water has been something that we've |
| 571s |
been |
| 573s |
not gonna say neglecting because we're |
| 574s |
doing we've been doing a lot of |
| 576s |
optimizations and Polished to water in |
| 579s |
in terms of the backhand side and the |
| 580s |
technical things as to how it's been |
| 583s |
computed and the memory allocation for |
| 585s |
it |
| 587s |
kind of |
| 588s |
doing some magic in in the back end to |
| 591s |
uh make sure that it's behaving the way |
| 593s |
we wanted to do data wise and |
| 596s |
performance wise |
| 599s |
but with a lot of these changes there's |
| 602s |
also been a bit of a cost in terms of |
| 603s |
performance of of the user input |
| 606s |
perspective where |
| 608s |
things suddenly is not flowing as |
| 611s |
intended or |
| 613s |
they're just |
| 615s |
not working the way we want them at all |
| 618s |
and this has been made really apparent |
| 621s |
especially for the play test with |
| 623s |
everyone kind of building docs and |
| 624s |
interacting with water a lot more than |
| 626s |
they usually do |
| 629s |
and |
| 632s |
one thing that you know you're coming |
| 634s |
across in particular for |
| 637s |
block building and water building around |
| 639s |
water surfaces so on |
| 642s |
um |
| 645s |
builds a bit of a platform here |
| 650s |
so as you can see here |
| 653s |
Walter is disappearing for half a second |
| 655s |
and then it's properly being rendered |
| 657s |
and |
| 659s |
filling back up if you will |
| 663s |
um |
| 664s |
so as you can see here I've got a full |
| 666s |
block and that is |
| 671s |
grab another one just to kind of |
| 672s |
showcase it |
| 679s |
here we have multiple blocks that are |
| 682s |
kind of occupied in the space |
| 684s |
I'm gonna save it |
| 687s |
before it gets disabled |
| 693s |
upload these things |
| 696s |
on them getting stuff placed here |
| 703s |
we've had a lot of situations where |
| 705s |
water the the mesh on the surface |
| 708s |
kind of has been breaking and then you |
| 709s |
know you've been seeing through the |
| 711s |
water if you will and leaving empty kind |
| 713s |
of air squares and so on so forth |
| 716s |
a lot of those cases should be remedied |
| 718s |
now |
| 719s |
um we have a |
| 721s |
Walter task force to kind of alleviate |
| 723s |
and go over a lot of these case |
| 725s |
scenarios and being over |
| 728s |
a lot of the potential build options and |
| 730s |
also |
| 731s |
how we've been wanting to handle water |
| 734s |
in terms of when water is taking out the |
| 737s |
same space as a normal block |
| 740s |
do we want to depend it on which |
| 742s |
specific type of block which specific |
| 744s |
type of form which specific |
| 747s |
um |
| 748s |
scenario are you being involved in kind |
| 750s |
of building this water thing so |
| 754s |
this has been a bit of a challenge on on |
| 757s |
I think everyone's part |
| 759s |
and |
| 762s |
as we've seen for the play test like I |
| 764s |
said it's been a lot more buildage |
| 767s |
in terms of water because of all the new |
| 770s |
all the new hardware involvements and |
| 773s |
things that kind of rummaging around |
| 776s |
so we have a distinction now between a |
| 780s |
solid block |
| 782s |
and |
| 785s |
what is referred to as a water logged |
| 788s |
block |
| 789s |
so a solid block is your usual like any |
| 793s |
block that is taking up a full piece of |
| 795s |
a square |
| 796s |
so in this case we're looking at bricks |
| 798s |
we've got |
| 800s |
uh we've got the floor we've got the |
| 802s |
cube we have the aqueduct and we also |
| 804s |
have the roof Cube which are taking up |
| 807s |
the full space of a block |
| 809s |
and they will kill |
| 812s |
author as it exists in here |
| 817s |
so as I'm removing these |
| 824s |
you can see that the water is starting |
| 826s |
to kind of angle off and dissipate a bit |
| 830s |
and that's because the water is removed |
| 832s |
from that specific space but it's still |
| 834s |
stretching out and kind of rendering |
| 836s |
towards |
| 837s |
alternative water sources |
| 840s |
and this is something that we're |
| 842s |
continuously working on |
| 844s |
in terms of the back end so this is |
| 846s |
still a bit of a problem |
| 848s |
that we're not |
| 849s |
super happy with our current iteration |
| 851s |
of and |
| 853s |
we'll be keeping keep working on it |
| 856s |
General |
| 858s |
however we've done a lot of |
| 861s |
and a connectivity and stretching of how |
| 865s |
the water visually appears so they look |
| 867s |
less broken |
| 869s |
but it is something that we'll be |
| 871s |
continuing to improve on |
| 874s |
further on in |
| 876s |
sort of post 10. |
| 879s |
um |
| 881s |
as iron noodle anything that is a |
| 883s |
complete full solid block is going to be |
| 885s |
killing water so with bricks it'll be |
| 887s |
these four types |
| 889s |
so anything that is sort of a |
| 891s |
reminiscent of a partial block is gonna |
| 893s |
be having something called water logged |
| 897s |
and |
| 898s |
for mothers in particular |
| 902s |
the water logged is an interface that |
| 905s |
you just applied to |
| 908s |
you just apply it to the blocks block |
| 911s |
class so if I go in here |
| 914s |
[Music] |
| 921s |
to go into |
| 923s |
the technical modern side |
| 925s |
and all you need to do from the mother's |
| 928s |
perspective to add this attribute |
| 930s |
um |
| 931s |
onto an existing block form that you've |
| 934s |
made I'm so blocks |
| 936s |
is just inherent from the interface of |
| 939s |
eye water log block |
| 941s |
and that's all you need to do for the |
| 943s |
specific block form |
| 945s |
this also needs to be done on each P of |
| 949s |
uh Rubble if you have multiple placeable |
| 952s |
blocks so |
| 954s |
like each each stackable class for |
| 958s |
the loose piece |
| 960s |
um has to be has to be applied with the |
| 962s |
same interface as well for it to inherit |
| 965s |
from it and what this will do is it'll |
| 968s |
add more data to the block itself for |
| 970s |
the chunk to handle |
| 972s |
and that'll allow it to contain the |
| 976s |
water inside itself |
| 978s |
and you can Smite it and just get rid of |
| 981s |
it and build however you kind of want to |
| 985s |
without having to worry about water |
| 987s |
being you know deleted or removed or so |
| 991s |
and so forth |
| 994s |
which is stretching out to in more |
| 996s |
commonly used blocks most of this is |
| 1002s |
box and |
| 1003s |
that I'm running on |
| 1005s |
a bit of a test build right now so |
| 1007s |
everything's not completely perfect |
| 1011s |
so there's still a couple of couple of |
| 1013s |
cases where it's not |
| 1014s |
properly rendering through but that's |
| 1018s |
um also why it's not |
| 1022s |
deployed to the |
| 1024s |
plate test right now because |
| 1025s |
it'll be kind of |
| 1027s |
polished and tinkered and or that we are |
| 1035s |
comes out in a nice and Polished state |
| 1038s |
that we want |
| 1041s |
so as you build up floors you know you |
| 1044s |
want to move them |
| 1045s |
without any water loggable |
| 1048s |
is |
| 1049s |
replacing the blocks once you remove |
| 1051s |
them with water again so you don't have |
| 1053s |
that massive water breakage all over the |
| 1055s |
place when you're rebuilding building |
| 1057s |
and fiddling around with this blocks |
| 1060s |
so hopefully a lot of people are gonna |
| 1064s |
be some good use of this |
| 1068s |
improved state of water |
| 1073s |
and it's it's been a it's been a |
| 1074s |
headache that we've had for a long time |
| 1076s |
in terms of |
| 1078s |
trying to come up with a good technical |
| 1079s |
solution that doesn't that doesn't just |
| 1081s |
outright kill performance because of the |
| 1084s |
the more the the higher and increased |
| 1087s |
information |
| 1088s |
that the blocks needs to contain |
| 1092s |
so for us as well this is this is pretty |
| 1095s |
pretty huge to um |
| 1098s |
making this possible |
| 1100s |
so this will work with and as you can |
| 1102s |
see we still have some edge cases with |
| 1104s |
corners and then some of the things that |
| 1106s |
we're looking |
| 1107s |
improving on the rule sets for how water |
| 1110s |
is being kind of |
| 1112s |
visualized and rendered on so this will |
| 1115s |
work with any block that is partial |
| 1118s |
um including things like defenses |
| 1124s |
whichever block form |
| 1126s |
so this has |
| 1128s |
clear |
| 1130s |
kind of value especially for things like |
| 1132s |
the |
| 1135s |
good |
| 1136s |
and then run with the normal Hammer |
| 1138s |
instead of the adaptable because they |
| 1139s |
have tools wants to Target the water |
| 1141s |
surface which is why you see this alt |
| 1143s |
Behavior |
| 1148s |
it is |
| 1163s |
we still have some |
| 1165s |
client client is predicting the water |
| 1168s |
and then it still shows it a little bit |
| 1169s |
so that's |
| 1171s |
I think things too polish as we're kind |
| 1173s |
of poking at it |
| 1174s |
um |
| 1177s |
does it still work well if your dock is |
| 1179s |
one tile up above the water it was |
| 1180s |
pushing into the water from the |
| 1182s |
foundation yeah so this should be |
| 1183s |
covering |
| 1185s |
uh basically any any scenario where a |
| 1188s |
block is inside water for any number of |
| 1192s |
reasons |
| 1194s |
grab |
| 1195s |
a support for instance |
| 1197s |
here |
| 1205s |
get ourselves up here and we build |
| 1209s |
uh which one do we want to use I want to |
| 1212s |
use this one |
| 1214s |
and then we can |
| 1227s |
[Music] |
| 1233s |
foreign |
| 1243s |
that should cover most most and then |
| 1245s |
I'll kind of Pokey things but as you can |
| 1248s |
see here |
| 1249s |
bullet blocks |
| 1251s |
do still kinda |
| 1253s |
distort the surface because they are |
| 1255s |
killing the blocks |
| 1257s |
um and having the system kind of |
| 1260s |
reconfigure itself and know that this |
| 1262s |
should be back filled versus |
| 1265s |
what is known as evaporation is |
| 1268s |
something that is still being kind of |
| 1269s |
poked at |
| 1273s |
and |
| 1275s |
with this a lot of these things being |
| 1277s |
fixed a lot of a lot of these things can |
| 1279s |
be improved out we have finally been |
| 1281s |
able to restore the water the predictive |
| 1284s |
water Behavior |
| 1286s |
or evaporations where |
| 1289s |
you are digging into something and the |
| 1291s |
water is running off not backfilling |
| 1294s |
completely |
| 1297s |
um so this is once again properly |
| 1299s |
behaving and |
| 1301s |
um the aqueducts water type attribute is |
| 1304s |
also working as |
| 1307s |
working as currently intended |
| 1310s |
if I grab some bricks |
| 1313s |
and I want to change out and I want to |
| 1315s |
just dig a parallel Canal to this |
| 1319s |
change altitude aqueducts |
| 1323s |
that the dev tool doesn't play nice |
| 1325s |
moment I can just block off the water |
| 1327s |
where I want the canal to start |
| 1331s |
then |
| 1334s |
I want to dig out |
| 1337s |
everything involving the canal |
| 1340s |
so for at the evaporation to not take |
| 1343s |
effect it needs to have an aqueduct as a |
| 1348s |
u-shape around it |
| 1350s |
and it doesn't matter how wide it is or |
| 1355s |
how long it is |
| 1357s |
it currently is a bit sensitive on the |
| 1359s |
depth so I would recommend you to kind |
| 1362s |
of build it |
| 1365s |
um add one deep first |
| 1369s |
and this is also something that we're |
| 1371s |
experimenting a bit on how to improve in |
| 1373s |
terms of user experience to |
| 1375s |
alleviate some of these things |
| 1379s |
so at the moment keep it kind of |
| 1382s |
watertight |
| 1384s |
want to be digging out just the one |
| 1387s |
extra depth of the canal |
| 1395s |
and then once you have the canal |
| 1399s |
to the point where you're happy with it |
| 1411s |
I'll say this is this is the other River |
| 1413s |
to up to the way |
| 1418s |
oh |
| 1424s |
damn Bam Bam |
| 1427s |
and then you just let the water in |
| 1431s |
that corner might present the problem |
| 1437s |
and then it's just spreading along so |
| 1439s |
how that works is that it's looking for |
| 1442s |
is it is there a water tight area around |
| 1445s |
it and combining it then it'll just keep |
| 1447s |
pushing so if you block this off here |
| 1450s |
it'll stop flowing into the canal |
| 1452s |
because this is the kind of source entry |
| 1455s |
block to it |
| 1458s |
and it'll just run off and |
| 1461s |
gonna keep going |
| 1464s |
and as you can see here we're also |
| 1466s |
getting some some of the kind of |
| 1469s |
stretching and and polish to |
| 1471s |
getting a more |
| 1474s |
realistic water decline rather than just |
| 1478s |
this kind of square off put as you |
| 1480s |
currently have on the rivers so |
| 1483s |
um we've gotten plenty of things out of |
| 1486s |
the way and fixed with the water as is |
| 1489s |
but we are continuously kind of |
| 1491s |
improving it and looking over |
| 1493s |
how it's behaving and what we can do to |
| 1495s |
make it more |
| 1498s |
user friendly and easier to understand |
| 1500s |
as well as to use |
| 1505s |
uh when you have two tiles thick it |
| 1510s |
um |
| 1514s |
all for the um |
| 1516s |
all the the horizontal ones these ones |
| 1520s |
that what we're talking about |
| 1524s |
foreign |
| 1532s |
with the new Walter mechanics will this |
| 1535s |
affect piped Waters with filling pools |
| 1537s |
or new areas with water yes so |
| 1540s |
one of the downside of this is that I've |
| 1544s |
been looking over how we kind of want to |
| 1546s |
deal with piped water |
| 1550s |
um |
| 1551s |
in general and I think what is going to |
| 1554s |
happen with them is that we're probably |
| 1557s |
going to temporarily remove |
| 1561s |
um the back filling of water which is |
| 1563s |
going to be horrible for all of you |
| 1567s |
Super Creative Builders with |
| 1570s |
intricate Water Wheel Works water wheels |
| 1573s |
will be |
| 1576s |
a lot harsher in the requirements |
| 1583s |
um |
| 1583s |
however |
| 1586s |
you do have |
| 1588s |
the benefit of |
| 1590s |
this General like horizontal water |
| 1593s |
transportation so you could |
| 1595s |
you know Canal water away from a river |
| 1599s |
or from a whole uh the higher Peak and |
| 1601s |
make like a big aqueduct |
| 1604s |
um to pull water to where you are |
| 1606s |
in that manner |
| 1608s |
but it's still being poked at so I don't |
| 1612s |
have any definitive things to say about |
| 1614s |
it well |
| 1615s |
I had time for Roman aqueducts |
| 1619s |
pretty much yeah |
| 1624s |
as for any changes to water wheels I |
| 1627s |
don't think |
| 1629s |
we necessarily have some I know the art |
| 1631s |
team has been secretly working on some |
| 1633s |
improvements to the visuals on a lot of |
| 1636s |
aspects |
| 1637s |
and a lot of a lot of new objects that |
| 1640s |
some are prompted for 10 some are |
| 1642s |
prompted for future updates |
| 1644s |
um some may not be reworks but to |
| 1646s |
complete replacements |
| 1648s |
so there's a lot of things that are |
| 1649s |
coming and |
| 1651s |
one of the things that I know |
| 1654s |
Ruby and the Gang has been working hard |
| 1656s |
on getting an upgrade for |
| 1660s |
is something that have seen a lot more |
| 1664s |
frequent use after being long forgotten |
| 1667s |
and that is the currency currency |
| 1670s |
exchange |
| 1672s |
which I know some people were asking |
| 1673s |
about |
| 1674s |
the other days if I do |
| 1677s |
on one |
| 1681s |
economy testing |
| 1684s |
so the currency exchange as you know |
| 1687s |
looks basically like a gas station at |
| 1689s |
the moment |
| 1691s |
there was some envisionment when it was |
| 1694s |
first originated |
| 1696s |
that |
| 1699s |
it is reminiscent of |
| 1703s |
uh some sort of dispenser |
| 1707s |
so this is how it's looking today |
| 1710s |
and |
| 1712s |
while it's not plugged into the game yet |
| 1714s |
so I can't show you directly in game |
| 1717s |
however |
| 1718s |
this is going to be the new currency |
| 1722s |
exchange object |
| 1730s |
and I would dare say that your team |
| 1731s |
updated themselves once again |
| 1734s |
because it's it is looking really really |
| 1736s |
nice |
| 1739s |
and |
| 1740s |
a lot of things with this object as kind |
| 1744s |
of |
| 1744s |
odd predeterministic kind of behaviors |
| 1748s |
so |
| 1749s |
while the old one kind of looked odd |
| 1751s |
this one has sort of a predefined |
| 1756s |
more out of Dorsey look to it |
| 1759s |
so with |
| 1761s |
with this change of the art of the |
| 1764s |
object |
| 1766s |
we are also going to revise the recipe |
| 1769s |
for crafting it |
| 1771s |
and we're also |
| 1774s |
as iron noodles came in |
| 1777s |
um |
| 1778s |
we are also looking at |
| 1781s |
replacing the recipe in general but it |
| 1782s |
will be an outdoor object so it's not |
| 1784s |
going to be dependent on having a room |
| 1786s |
to it which is also gonna reduce |
| 1790s |
the kind of Entry curve to it that it's |
| 1792s |
having right now right now it's |
| 1793s |
requiring tier two which is a pretty |
| 1795s |
heavy investment early on |
| 1797s |
it makes fading between towns |
| 1801s |
particularly difficult because of the |
| 1803s |
difference not the different dominating |
| 1806s |
currencies in the different regions |
| 1808s |
that we've seen on sea otter in |
| 1811s |
particular when we don't have a general |
| 1812s |
currency right off the bat that |
| 1816s |
um |
| 1816s |
we kind of need to have the currency |
| 1818s |
exchange available early on |
| 1822s |
and |
| 1823s |
having that art asset upgrade to it is |
| 1826s |
just the perfect fit for |
| 1828s |
getting it into 10 |
| 1830s |
. there hasn't been any changes to the |
| 1832s |
UI yet |
| 1834s |
um |
| 1835s |
but we are looking at |
| 1839s |
potentially doing that as well it |
| 1840s |
depends a little bit on |
| 1844s |
uh |
| 1846s |
one of the one of the few things that |
| 1849s |
currently kind of tied into the |
| 1850s |
settlement system which is |
| 1852s |
sort of an unintended |
| 1855s |
inheritance but |
| 1857s |
I over there |
| 1860s |
I have one that's working |
| 1865s |
go |
| 1868s |
I believe I had one |
| 1872s |
this one not |
| 1873s |
yeah |
| 1877s |
um and I know there's been this this UI |
| 1880s |
is really old we haven't really touched |
| 1881s |
it in a long time we're looking at |
| 1884s |
changing it out a little bit making it a |
| 1886s |
little easier to understand |
| 1890s |
um |
| 1892s |
but as it stands right now you have |
| 1895s |
given a bit of an example explanation as |
| 1899s |
there seems to be a lot of miscon |
| 1900s |
misunderstandings about how the currency |
| 1903s |
exchange works the currency exchange |
| 1905s |
does not generate money it doesn't |
| 1907s |
create currency |
| 1909s |
you don't input you know you don't |
| 1912s |
add items to yet |
| 1914s |
a chosen currency at whatever rates |
| 1917s |
you're setting |
| 1918s |
it's a transaction it's basically a |
| 1921s |
store for money |
| 1923s |
so you are offering |
| 1925s |
in this case you're offering a one |
| 1927s |
dollar |
| 1928s |
at the currency exchange rate of 1.5 in |
| 1933s |
exchange for the client currency |
| 1936s |
which means you want 1.5 client currency |
| 1940s |
test currency |
| 1942s |
injured out the APC credits just a |
| 1944s |
little bit here too |
| 1948s |
and |
| 1951s |
other things |
| 1955s |
I have one and I'm setting what I want |
| 1958s |
in return for that one credit |
| 1961s |
and exchanging it for this so this means |
| 1964s |
that a player has to come to your |
| 1966s |
currency exchange |
| 1968s |
pay whatever amount of transactional |
| 1971s |
money that you have set and then that's |
| 1974s |
going into your account from your |
| 1975s |
account |
| 1978s |
now if you're using your own credit |
| 1981s |
I have my |
| 1983s |
a general credit here |
| 1987s |
I have an infinite amount of this that |
| 1990s |
is absolutely true however I can't |
| 1993s |
acquire an infinite amount of dollars |
| 1995s |
because someone has to pay me dollars to |
| 1998s |
acquire my credits it's basically |
| 2000s |
you know using the money directly |
| 2002s |
instead of just using Goods as a |
| 2005s |
transactional |
| 2007s |
between different points so |
| 2010s |
I might have gotten a whole bunch of |
| 2013s |
credits or something and I want the |
| 2015s |
general Global Currency |
| 2018s |
but someone else needs that specific |
| 2020s |
credit because that guy has a store that |
| 2023s |
he's only selling goods for his credits |
| 2025s |
and not taking currency and the currency |
| 2029s |
exchange is a way to kind of get around |
| 2031s |
a lot of those limitations where you |
| 2033s |
don't want to be juggling Just Goods you |
| 2035s |
can be running around just buying |
| 2037s |
different currencies to kind of get what |
| 2038s |
they want |
| 2040s |
and then as a concern |
| 2044s |
um |
| 2044s |
as a general concern with |
| 2047s |
kind of financial levels and what if I |
| 2050s |
have a whole bunch of credits and I'm |
| 2053s |
buying the Global Currency but I don't |
| 2055s |
wanna |
| 2056s |
I don't want to get a million of the |
| 2058s |
Global Currency and someone grabs a |
| 2061s |
whole bunch of my credits and they just |
| 2063s |
buy everything in my store |
| 2065s |
well first off I would say |
| 2067s |
congratulations because you sold out |
| 2069s |
everything in your store |
| 2070s |
and someone wanted all your stuff and |
| 2072s |
you you're setting the price for them at |
| 2075s |
what you should be comfortable with |
| 2077s |
selling at in terms of you know effort |
| 2080s |
and |
| 2082s |
but how to manage that and deal with |
| 2084s |
that is to be able to set specific |
| 2086s |
limitations to how much money you're |
| 2089s |
buying and how much you want to save |
| 2092s |
with these restrictions |
| 2095s |
so you add a restriction |
| 2097s |
and you set the specific currency you |
| 2100s |
want to restrict |
| 2102s |
and you're telling your bank account |
| 2104s |
basically and your wealth representation |
| 2107s |
to how much your how much you're apping |
| 2110s |
out in that specific account |
| 2114s |
so in this case you have a minimum value |
| 2116s |
where |
| 2117s |
you set the minimum amount of money you |
| 2120s |
need to have in your bank account before |
| 2122s |
you're selling the Surplus so in this |
| 2125s |
case if I set it to 500 |
| 2128s |
before this store tries to sell a single |
| 2131s |
unit |
| 2134s |
I need to have 501 and it will never |
| 2137s |
sell |
| 2139s |
it'll never sell off more currency |
| 2142s |
then that limit as a minimum |
| 2145s |
and then of course as the offset you if |
| 2147s |
you want to prevent someone from dumping |
| 2148s |
a whole bunch load of currency on you |
| 2151s |
you can also set a cap for it so you |
| 2153s |
don't want to be buying |
| 2156s |
you know an infinite amount you just |
| 2158s |
want to make sure that you can buy |
| 2160s |
another 500 so you can stay between 500 |
| 2163s |
and 1000 if necessary while you set the |
| 2166s |
top cap for it |
| 2169s |
and as the tooltip states that's the |
| 2171s |
maximum amount of |
| 2175s |
um money in your account that you will |
| 2177s |
hold so if your own money is going above |
| 2179s |
it |
| 2181s |
then it's not gonna allow players to |
| 2183s |
sell more to you because you're already |
| 2185s |
at the cap |
| 2186s |
foreign |
| 2189s |
as for some of the questions here |
| 2191s |
regarding to General currency |
| 2193s |
um |
| 2196s |
would be cool if currency took up |
| 2198s |
physical space like gold bar so having a |
| 2200s |
currency out of a out of paper would be |
| 2202s |
beneficial by being able to have it more |
| 2205s |
lesson |
| 2207s |
more of it in the less space |
| 2209s |
um |
| 2212s |
currency as an item is |
| 2218s |
an interesting concept |
| 2220s |
and it works in |
| 2224s |
I think most cases the only time you |
| 2227s |
have currency as a direct hard item and |
| 2230s |
like something that you carry with you |
| 2231s |
is generally in games that lose it in |
| 2236s |
that makes sense |
| 2238s |
so in in case of RPG games where you die |
| 2242s |
and you |
| 2243s |
revive and |
| 2246s |
you lose a certain amount because you |
| 2247s |
drop it on the floor or PVP game where |
| 2250s |
your enemy players can |
| 2256s |
kill you off and can I grab your loot so |
| 2260s |
on so forth |
| 2263s |
um it's probably not something that |
| 2265s |
we're looking at |
| 2270s |
from our end but it's definitely an |
| 2272s |
interesting subject to look at |
| 2276s |
um |
| 2278s |
in terms of being able to handle kind of |
| 2280s |
logistically on on the other hand that |
| 2282s |
also means that you need always running |
| 2284s |
around with your money and the banks |
| 2286s |
kind of don't have a purpose |
| 2289s |
because there's no way there's no |
| 2291s |
there's no use to put things in a bank |
| 2293s |
if nothing can access the bank if you |
| 2296s |
will |
| 2300s |
um |
| 2304s |
but it's definitely an object |
| 2309s |
book app yeah in terms of how things are |
| 2312s |
being |
| 2313s |
without |
| 2321s |
um |
| 2322s |
great quality of life upgrade update |
| 2324s |
that wouldn't |
| 2326s |
require that much work uh would to add |
| 2328s |
already calculated section rates between |
| 2330s |
the two currents as an option ethically |
| 2333s |
opted |
| 2334s |
extreme but the currency be in full |
| 2338s |
we're offline |
| 2339s |
and for smaller currencies we still have |
| 2341s |
enough let's manually |
| 2344s |
um |
| 2345s |
I think that's a a valid |
| 2349s |
Merit |
| 2351s |
um |
| 2353s |
this it is true if if people have always |
| 2356s |
been wondering about |
| 2359s |
kind of the currency and use things |
| 2361s |
there is a currency report for it that |
| 2364s |
is showing off more than just |
| 2368s |
players in the world and how much money |
| 2370s |
they have it's also showing the depth of |
| 2373s |
the currency |
| 2374s |
but it's also showing you exchange rates |
| 2377s |
so if you have items that are being sold |
| 2381s |
um inside the store you know one |
| 2384s |
currency selling logs upon price another |
| 2386s |
selling logs at another price |
| 2389s |
then this will actually automatically |
| 2391s |
calculate and compare it to |
| 2395s |
um so this is |
| 2398s |
a big risk here is that something |
| 2400s |
automatic there is also prone to |
| 2405s |
um |
| 2406s |
things like manipulation |
| 2409s |
because it Compares larger transactions |
| 2412s |
and larger trades between the same types |
| 2414s |
of items so if you have |
| 2416s |
been a friend setting up a store that |
| 2418s |
you don't have access to and you're |
| 2419s |
selling Goods to him at a really high |
| 2422s |
inflated price price it'll it'll drive |
| 2425s |
up the currency exchange value of that |
| 2428s |
currency compared to the other because |
| 2429s |
of recent trades or the denomination |
| 2433s |
and I'm getting |
| 2436s |
I'm hearing that the Sea author is up |
| 2438s |
and alive so that's |
| 2440s |
it is a lot |
| 2443s |
I've been enjoying that one and see if |
| 2445s |
we can get some |
| 2447s |
in comparisons here |
| 2462s |
but yeah currency has a physical entity |
| 2464s |
is is always an interesting thing but |
| 2467s |
it's difficult to say |
| 2470s |
what kind of implications it would have |
| 2472s |
because |
| 2474s |
you know is it gonna be |
| 2477s |
um or Eco in general it's |
| 2481s |
a lot into how much value is this going |
| 2484s |
to be added to or is this just going to |
| 2486s |
be something that people are going to be |
| 2489s |
just really frustrated with and don't |
| 2491s |
know what to do and then are just |
| 2493s |
another thing to have in your your bag |
| 2496s |
to kind of take up |
| 2499s |
base |
| 2502s |
um let me change out |
| 2504s |
interface scale so it's visible on the |
| 2506s |
Stream |
| 2510s |
oh |
| 2511s |
I wanted to go in here and here we can |
| 2513s |
see a whole bunch load of different |
| 2515s |
credits and currencies that are being |
| 2516s |
inserted in circulation |
| 2519s |
and the buttons are not truncating |
| 2522s |
correctly overlapping that's probably |
| 2525s |
because of |
| 2528s |
why change so if we go into currency |
| 2530s |
report here and |
| 2534s |
roll all the way down here we go |
| 2539s |
so |
| 2540s |
this also needs a bit of a cleanup in in |
| 2542s |
terms of Polish and improvements but |
| 2545s |
here we can see the exchange rates of |
| 2547s |
these currencies and |
| 2549s |
we have the Orion credit that we were |
| 2553s |
looking at is worth 4.4 White Lane |
| 2556s |
Credits based on the average from these |
| 2558s |
32 trades |
| 2560s |
where it's comparing the different items |
| 2563s |
and different things that they're uh |
| 2567s |
um |
| 2570s |
coupling around |
| 2571s |
and this will compare anything that has |
| 2574s |
an equal item trade so it can't compare |
| 2577s |
to currencies that are not Trading |
| 2579s |
similar items so if you have one |
| 2582s |
currency that's only trading in basic |
| 2583s |
once |
| 2585s |
and then you've got one that's trading |
| 2587s |
in in basic upgrades twos |
| 2590s |
then it's not going to be able to |
| 2592s |
compare the two because there's no |
| 2593s |
common denominator of comparison |
| 2599s |
so here we have yeah as a fire noodle |
| 2602s |
was coming out new new coin versus Orion |
| 2606s |
is one Orion is worth |
| 2609s |
17.89 new gold |
| 2612s |
based on what seems to be mostly food |
| 2617s |
we have something else in here we've got |
| 2618s |
iron bars iron bars is always a good |
| 2620s |
denominating factor in between because |
| 2622s |
there's usually a large bulk transaction |
| 2624s |
going on |
| 2626s |
um at a very frequent rate so it's hard |
| 2628s |
to kind of spook |
| 2630s |
get something looking weirdly versus |
| 2633s |
upgrades that can have a really |
| 2634s |
different profit margins |
| 2638s |
so having those really big common common |
| 2642s |
consumables if you will so building |
| 2644s |
materials tools iron bars and so on are |
| 2648s |
usually pretty good |
| 2650s |
sets and then you've got standard |
| 2653s |
deviation and prices being fifteen |
| 2654s |
thousand seven hundred percent |
| 2658s |
which is summarizing up to |
| 2661s |
being |
| 2662s |
17.8189 so in this case someone could |
| 2665s |
place down a currency exchange and say |
| 2666s |
you know I'm selling one Orion coin |
| 2670s |
but I want 20 new gold for it |
| 2673s |
so they're profiting on the transaction |
| 2675s |
change of currency |
| 2678s |
but they are selling you know one |
| 2680s |
currency for another and |
| 2683s |
that possibility is going to be |
| 2686s |
hopefully a lot easier |
| 2689s |
and |
| 2690s |
I'll be going over that recipe and kind |
| 2692s |
of where we're introducing that |
| 2696s |
um |
| 2698s |
wherever |
| 2699s |
uh and it's possible it might not be for |
| 2703s |
the play the the current sea alter play |
| 2705s |
test but |
| 2707s |
it'll definitely be in with a new recipe |
| 2710s |
at least |
| 2711s |
um can't promise the visuals because |
| 2713s |
that is completely dependent on |
| 2716s |
art team |
| 2719s |
adding it to |
| 2720s |
um |
| 2722s |
working again |
| 2725s |
uh treasury with settlements and |
| 2728s |
multiple currencies |
| 2731s |
the treasury is kind of weird |
| 2734s |
there's the treasury has always been |
| 2737s |
this kind of super all-powerful thing so |
| 2743s |
that is still kind of pending a bit |
| 2750s |
catfish |
| 2751s |
I know um I mean |
| 2753s |
old style it's it's kind of explanatory |
| 2756s |
in terms of how you know what each |
| 2758s |
button is doing to it but it's all |
| 2760s |
powerful in terms of it's always been |
| 2762s |
the factor of a global government |
| 2764s |
and you had specific electoral title |
| 2767s |
permissions to use it and everyone had a |
| 2770s |
say in terms of what what was being |
| 2772s |
builted for and |
| 2777s |
um |
| 2777s |
and so on yeah I I might hide the |
| 2780s |
treasury if settlement is enabled for |
| 2782s |
now because |
| 2783s |
it's really |
| 2787s |
it's really unpredictive at the moment |
| 2789s |
also pipes |
| 2792s |
um as a as a reference I forgot to show |
| 2794s |
that pipes is also counted as |
| 2797s |
water logged blocks so pipes will not |
| 2799s |
lock water per se |
| 2803s |
they won't act as a solid block |
| 2807s |
which means you |
| 2811s |
having pipes like this can be a bit |
| 2814s |
risky |
| 2815s |
we're looking at |
| 2817s |
what we want to do in the future with |
| 2818s |
pipes as well because |
| 2820s |
I don't want them to be going through |
| 2822s |
terrain and not |
| 2824s |
a big Space Age so we need to do some |
| 2827s |
some similar type magic to pipes and be |
| 2830s |
an applicable inside another block and |
| 2833s |
that's all |
| 2835s |
it's a whole lot of Dev streaming itself |
| 2838s |
but yeah so we are on the play test |
| 2840s |
right now this is live this is not a |
| 2843s |
recording |
| 2850s |
but some |
| 2852s |
of going on |
| 2857s |
mining operations going on |
| 2864s |
I have I have barely been on sea otter |
| 2867s |
in case I get distracted |
| 2871s |
quite curious to see what people are |
| 2873s |
doing and and been doing |
| 2876s |
hitting up to |
| 2881s |
I'll |
| 2882s |
get it |
| 2889s |
I think the prices for clams are ruining |
| 2891s |
the currency reports for those two |
| 2893s |
currencies that is entirely possible he |
| 2896s |
said it's not foolproof and |
| 2901s |
um with the towns and Nations we we do |
| 2904s |
need to put more of an emphasis on |
| 2906s |
some of those |
| 2911s |
more economically impacting |
| 2914s |
reports and functions in terms of |
| 2916s |
quality of life as the towns and nations |
| 2919s |
are |
| 2920s |
and are scratching on that surface in a |
| 2923s |
whole new scale |
| 2925s |
than what has been previously used |
| 2926s |
previously those kind of currency |
| 2928s |
reports and economical kind of in-depth |
| 2933s |
um |
| 2934s |
statistics have only really been you |
| 2937s |
know |
| 2938s |
statistics used to say it kind of |
| 2940s |
curiosity |
| 2941s |
um |
| 2941s |
looking over how |
| 2944s |
things are going in general or how your |
| 2947s |
currency is doing compared to other |
| 2949s |
currencies |
| 2950s |
but there haven't really been a huge |
| 2953s |
kind of reasons to |
| 2956s |
really use it |
| 2958s |
um |
| 2960s |
in the same way as there is as there has |
| 2963s |
now so |
| 2965s |
venturing into unknown territory with a |
| 2967s |
lot of these things |
| 2973s |
as we are |
| 2975s |
and are seeing them properly used and |
| 2977s |
then as they get more also finding out |
| 2981s |
new things that we want to be adding or |
| 2983s |
changing out and improving |
| 2988s |
gonna give users the tool stuff |
| 2992s |
they need and |
| 2996s |
also can use in a more obscene way |
| 3001s |
and not just get lost in statistics and |
| 3005s |
trying to figure out everything on their |
| 3006s |
own with red sheets which is |
| 3010s |
on on its own and |
| 3013s |
Earth |
| 3017s |
raindrop here |
