@GamerdylanTrain I cannot find the file, sorry : (

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

What is the most cursed thing you've made using rigs, bones, and/or skinned meshes in general?

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

@PersonalStuff01 no, its a bunch of blobs chasing me

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

I don't remember making this and its unsettling #RobloxDev

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

@Maxx_JNM a real brawl hey

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

@GamerdylanTrain @TCaptain_ Tbh, no clue. The script wasn't original, but the voiceover was done by me

For those who missed my announcement made earlier this week, I will be moving all non-roblox content to my private account @TCaptain_

Yeah pathfinding is fun, but have you tried making an NPC explore its environment and place its own patrol nodes?
Its not perfect, but it was a fun experiment in making a more flexible AI.

This was probably one of my favorite (and easiest) visual abilities from PPT:S- It used raycasts to find surfaces and points, creating a few webbed triangles as a result. #RobloxDev
Touching the triangles of course notified the monster.

A fun little in-world dialog popup. #RobloxDev

Text size is always a pain, though, when it comes to consistency. What are some effective solutions that you all know of?

Note: I tried TextService:GetTextSize() but it hasn't been reliable. I might give it another go to be sure

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

@Quenty This is the first I've heard of HSLuv; from what I read, its fantastic stuff since it uses perceived brightness

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

Which do you prefer? An RGB tween or an HSV tween? They both have their use cases, but HSV is great for lighting due to Brightness control. #RobloxDev

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

@plasma_node @SigmaTechRBLX how so? as in, work at all? or it somewhat works but always spirals out of control?

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

@plasma_node @SigmaTechRBLX

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

We released a new game! It focuses more on PVP since it was the most popular in PPT:F.

@RFluff48 I used Terrain:FillBall() to start with a baseline, then used x,y,z coordinates to generate a noise value, and simply overwrote the terrain with that new value using WriteVoxels.
In hindsight, I should've used polar coordinates, but my original method worked fine.

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

@xuuace for this specific one, no regret (I have much, much worse trades in retrospect)

[TigerCaptain @TigerCaptain_]

Super excited to have this released; I've been working on it for a good while now, and I can't wait to see players enjoy it!

@KaleyNicholee @DoubleMcSprite @ThisIsWildGoat @squishmallow @Jazwares @Roblox @_KyleHulse @YouFoundSam_RBX The room opening up was not intentional; I was rushing to get this one working as there were a total of 3 live-op events this weekend, and I'm occupied with other work responsibilities.
