@Alfray_Stryke Ah that's gre.... Wait, do you mean "as intended"? No? Oh, ok ;<

[Daniel Bengtsson @MonzunDev]

@DolphinDivePro @LadyMagnus1 I can have tea ready by the time you get here!

[Daniel Bengtsson @MonzunDev]

So what do I do after 8 hours of Stellaris dev work?
I of course spend 4 hours updating my Eco mods.

What!? No I don't have a problem!

@A_Spec @Ep3o_ @StellarisGame It is indeed one of my "favorites" x)
Maybe I'll get around to making some partial support just so that I can point to it and go "You've already got it, next question please!" :P

PDXCon pros:
- Hardcore fans 😎
- Interesting panels 🤔
- Great colleagues 💪
- Games 🚀
- Live music 🎻
- I apparently like mead? 🍻

PDXCon cons:
- Crashing hard from the social energy high, at the airport 🥱

@PdxInteractive PDXCon 2023 when!?

[Daniel Bengtsson @MonzunDev]

@Ep3o_ @StellarisGame No, fully dynamic keybinds would require architecture to support it and it's not feasible to change at this point.

It's technically possible to partially support it for some features like pause/unpause and system)galaxy mode, but even then, all keys wouldn't be available.

@CheerfulGoth It doesn't even apply to all programmers. I've learned over the past few years that what drives me is people.

I want to make my colleagues' work shine by fixing bugs, eliminating annoyances via QoL improvements and by supporting their work.

I don't want to make an engine 🤷‍♂️

[Daniel Bengtsson @MonzunDev]

@Ep3o_ The commentary and chat interaction!

Even if you can have your hands full on normal speed, it's still a relatively slow game for the viewers.

[Daniel Bengtsson @MonzunDev]

@MatRopert I'm sorry you must endure such darkness down there ;P

[Daniel Bengtsson @MonzunDev]

Uh so, last time we played half of Dolphin's town lost power. This time half of the internet came crumbling down. Are we just cursed? 👀

[Daniel Bengtsson @MonzunDev]

@DJTruthsayer While your impact at work will be missed greatly, I'm happy I won't have to miss hanging out with you and learn everything I didn't want to know about football 🙃

[Daniel Bengtsson @MonzunDev]

@DolphinDivePro @DJTruthsayer @KomradTruck Thank you! I have a lot of fun!

[DolphinDivePro @DolphinDivePro]

The cost calculation bug was interesting to solve. Thanks for covering it so well!
