when is roblox going to stop fast moving objects from being able to pass through walls lol
like couldn't they just do some raycasting stuff before manipulating the position of the part each frame or..? i feel like it shouldn't be too hard to update physics that way? or just make it a part property?

I got this behavior in my game by having a low FOV with the camera far away in third person, then increasing FOV as the camera is pushed closer to the character, fading into a pseudo FPS. The camera distance is calculated by raycasting from the character to the requested camera position.

makes sense, raycasting a chunked mesh every frame gets expensive fast. the math route sounds like the cheaper one

So I've been cooking up a little side project, and it's turning into something ridiculously fun. I forget if I posted about it here or not, but this is actually an evolution of the raycasting engine I made for Godot about half a year ago now!

It sounds like an alternate type of rendering pipeline, where instead of just jumping to 2d you use 3d "pixels", with raycasting as the final jump to 2d. A new kind of retro effect?
What happens as you shrink the voxel size? Does that bring it closer to a standard rendering style or something else?

block placing and breaking sounds like a fun next step. are you thinking of raycasting from the camera to pick the block?

I'm working on UNBOUND! My first game release is being rebuilt from the ground up using DDA raycasting. This time, I'm building it the way I want, rather than being confined by the limitations of someone else's engine.
this game is about telling a story. And I want to tell that story right.

its easy to confuse raytracing, raymarching and raycasting, but its simple to distinguish: raycasting is where you cast a ray out until it hits an object and you render it. raymarching is where you march a ray out until it hits an object and you render it. raytracing is where you trace a ray out unt

A cost-based flood fill is so elegant, and terrain cost doubling as vision cost is a great bit of reuse. Way cheaper than raycasting per unit too.

I want to gripe about Godot's raycasting methodology but honestly I appreciate the ability to access so much of the resulting hit's properties so easily.
Now, the guy who made an entire video on how to raycast in Godot that consisted of him asking Claude to do it for him? He can go fuck himself.

Getting the fog math right before the pretty pass is the right order. Are you doing it per-tile visibility or raycasting from each unit?
