swim jumping achieved

https://youtu.be/B-OrzcFxXC4

it was a combination of a few different issues. I'm using a raycast from the center of the character to detect whether it's swimming or not, so now when it's in the swim state, and it leaves the swimming trigger area (but isn't on ground), vertical movement up is zeroed out.

then, if it's in this position (outside of the swimming trigger, but still in the swimming state) the jumping action is enabled.

the jump state was checking if the character started from the ground (to determine if it was a double jump and thus if another jump after is enabled), so I had to change that to starting from the ground, or from swimming

finally, there was some residual code from the tutorial i did that reduced jump velocity if the character was in water, based on how submerged it was, that was causing jumps to be very small. I just removed that entirely

next: climbing

A spongebob console could sell because they have a lot of fans, but an advertisement for a game nobody cares about won't sell well.

Two Rugrats game, a Powerpuff Girls fighter, 3 South Park games, Spider-man game, 4 Star Wars games including the fantastic Episode 1 Racer, and the dreadful Superman, Xena, and Hercules games from Titus to name some.
PS2 had already launched by early 2000

N64 was still getting games through the end of 2001

spent some time fiddling with jump height. the way i was doing double jumps would cause the second jump to be affected by the downward movement of the falling action from the first jump, so if you jumped halfway through falling from a jump, it would only be half as high. "realistically" those physics make sense but I think the second jump should be the same height, or at least a consistent height

Well, I figured this out. Turns out I had an invisible trigger in the area this was happening. The old version of my code was ignoring the trigger (the correct behavior) but the new refactor was treating it water and switching to a not on ground stateand since I dont have swimming implemented yet it defaulted to falling.

glad it wasnt something with the mesh, that would have been a pain in the ass to figure out

In all honesty, I think the writing was on the wall for my interest in the MCU as soon as it was announced that Disney had acquired his film rights.

I didn't mind the liberties with the characters that I didn't know or care about. Films like Captain America and Iron Man had everything to gain and nothing to lose as far as I could see. But when they introduced my character, they had to strictly adhere to what I felt Spider-Man was or I wasn't going to be happy.

I can and win complain about Spider-Man playing sidekick to other heroes. That one is on them. But I will admit that it's doubtful the MCU would have made me happy with any path they would have likely taken with Spider-Man.
this is why people make fun of nerds

I don't think people realize how much it costs to run a Michelin starred restaurant.

It's incredibly labour intensive, and requires top quality personnel, from head chefs to wine waiters, and they don't come for minimum wage plus tips. Then there are the ingredients which are absolutely the finest, with nothing served that isn't highest quality.

Even at the prices they charge, they barely make a profit. Some even run at a loss. El Bulli was rated the best restaurant in the world, but had to close because it was hemorrhaging money.
Yeah the chef/owner of the place we went to sounded like he spent literally all his free time sourcing and testing ingredients. Everything was from different farms, farmers markets, specific to that time of year, etc

Most me and the wife have ever spent on dinner was 70 I believe (fancy steakhouse, our anniversary. Well worth the price). I cant see myself spending ten times that just be super fancy (also have to wonder how much that cost was wine pricing, as me and the wife dont drink)
Its not just about being fancy. its about the entire experience. If youve seen the show the bear, then maybe youd get an idea of what they might do

i havent been to a Michelin star restaurant, but my wife and I went to a tasting menu restaurant recently opened by former Michelin star chefs, where dinner and drinks was $200+ per person.

they seat 12 people per night, and its a 14 course meal over 3 hours. The kitchen is connected to the dining room and the chef explained how he came up with each one, telling stories and jokes or how he sourced the ingredients. For example one dessert used crab apples that he sourced from one specific crab apple tree after testing a whole bunch

we had to let them know in advance what our food restrictions were, and my wife who was pregnant got a specially prepared bison dish instead of the raw fish the rest of us got.

everything was delicious and beautifully presented

Obviously not an every night thing, but it was well worth it

That's not how it works. The restaurant has to actually be making and baking their own bread, and sell it as a standalone item. AND "does not apply if the bread is available for sale solely as part of another menu item."
why though?

why does that distinction make the workers not worth $20/hour?

now I'm working on refactoring movement to better accommodate animations. I had previously had my movement set up using the newer input system in unity, and had it set up as a state machine with the various states like walking, jumping, falling, etc. The tutorial I posted in the OP, while much more in depth, is just one giant file and uses the older input style. So I'm working on moving all the newly implemented movement and calculations back into the state machine I had initially set up

tbh this specific problem wasn't all that different from any other problem in programming/development.

ultimately I just had to find the right answer online, which in this case was that the character's bone rig was set up incorrectly. Basically every bone in an armature has a 'roll' that defines, among other things, the direction it will rotate in 3D space, and in a symmetrical character they have to be set up to mirror each other, e.g. if the right arm has a 90 degree roll, the left arm should be -90 degrees.

they weren't on my rig, and it was causing copying and pasting poses to not work correctly (which helps with flipping poses in movement animations). Once I got that figured out, I came away with a better understanding of how it works, and was able to knock out the rest of the animations in like an hour
