@sleitnick Great video. This style is clear and tidy. I used metatables for years and switched away after writing a lexer/simplify process for my code. Explicitly calling module methods is conducive to inter-module inlining and stripping strings from code.
@DragonPlayerRBX This will be fixed in the next update. The update has a lot of other changes I need to finish first though. You'll be able to accept by opening their radial menu and accepting.
Got smooth terrain's water+grass effects to work with Shard Seeker's new triangle terrain map system. Everything is generated client-side using lod, frustum culling, and AABB trees for custom water physics.

@hayden_allen18 The next update will completely rework progression to be less agonizing. It will take roughly 1 hour to grow and you can spend growth to unlock a new form for your character. Some of the forms will have level requirements though. Hopefully I can make it fun and not too grindy.
When you spend money on a Roblox mobile game, Apple/Google passively earn 2x more than the developer. I work every day to support my family and this just doesn't seem right.

@GPetriene It will be discontinued in the next update. At some point in the future it will likely be converted to a different animal and you can claim the shards back.
@zeuxcg@adrianb3000 I wonder how specific strings rank by usage. It's probably feasible to remove strings like "game" "GetService" "ContextActionService", "Instance" "new" "CylinderHandleAdornment", "string" "format", etc. I suspect much of it is long error messages though.
@Julia22406392 I know the change is frustrating for many, but it's very important for it to be this way. Meaningful character progression and lots of future activities are now possible because of it.
@PageNasa I don't think that would be good for the game's long term health. I'd consider adding massive creatures if they were restricted to specific zones. It just ruins the game to have big creatures stomping around the spawn town.
@GallaerOfficial Yes, birds chirping alongside crickets in a breezy forest. I had a T.rex sound sheet falsely moderated this morning too. What's interesting is that I uploaded the exact same sound sheet yesterday, and had simply reuploaded with one of the sounds removed.
@AnneCheriee It only takes one mistake before you start making backups of what you write throughout the day. I've been lucky before and found parts of something I lost still saved to my clipboard history.
@Xan_TheDragon @xJenny_Beanx I'd feel a lot more in-control using bones. You could even map each vertex and its weights to calculate where the mesh intersects with the camera's clipping plane and have a seamless submerged camera transition.
@Xan_TheDragon @xJenny_Beanx My water system uses an axis-aligned-bounding-boxes for water, and stores them in an AABB tree so it's super fast to check if something is underwater. It creates a thin sheet of terrain water to get the effect, and shifts the sheet when your camera is underwater.
