@Riftwalkergame@UnrealEngine Good work. I feel like 30% of my time is checking if each newly developed feature is wrecking the fps and creating spikes anywhere.
The bug behind the whole UI rebuild: hovering a button replaced its fill colour instead of washing over it. 🧵 So the rule now is one writer per property.
Found three places still painting over the top, and a slot resolving to pure black.

Fences go down by dragging now. 🔨 Pick a corner, pull, let go, and it solves the run and the post spacing for you.
The old way was one panel at a time and I would rather not talk about the old way.

@PokeIndie OMG yes, just came off a full UI refactor because i didn't like one small thing about the hierarchy. Thankfully its over now but the effort for something that small seems stupid sometimes.
In a roiling sea of new games and zero reach paid promos, you go after the one guy who actually cares!?
Indie development is hard enough.
Keep it up Joe, we are not all like this.
This happens more often than I'd like to admit. I'm a dad, I make games full-time, and I cover indie games for free in whatever time I've got left. I'm drowning in emails, not ignoring anyone, and I don't owe anyone anything. Act like this and you're getting blacklisted.
Pulled every Synty tree out of the world and rebaked the lot. 🌲 Scene, navmesh, water, grass, map charts.
Then found nine duplicate ambient-item assets the repeated bakes had quietly left lying around.

Unity 6.6 made GetInstanceID a hard error, and the replacement doesnt give you a number any more. ⚙️ 246 call sites across 98 files.

Turns out a dodge cant work by angle. ⚔️ The attacker face-tracks at 540 degrees a second, so a sidestep never leaves the arc it swings through. You have to carry your body out of range or you eat it anyway.
