Good news, it's not as bad as I thought. I forgot I had a compositor on this Linux installation. Oops. I'm still willing to offer sacrifices of course.

TwistedTwigleg You can add emoji by starting to type “:” and then the emoji you want. For example “:heart_eyes” will be 😍

And where can I see the whole list of smiles?

    Likes are kind of this secret thing. You put a like on someone's post and the only way you can see it is if you hover your mouse over it.

      I think it doesn't show your own likes. You see other people's likes.

      Yes, it's a very secretive thing. You can only see who has liked by expanding the menu and clicking on View Reactions — completely unnecessary in my opinion ritual. 🙁

      Yeah, kind of strange but I guess they didn't want it to clutter the clean interface.

      I lost my icon, probably for good.

      So, this character is from a project I've been wanting to build for far too long. His name is Master Mind, and he is the Master of Neurology. He was hired to break a prisoner whom a king wants to turn into a slave, as the king knew he could use a lot of horrible mind tricks on him. You play the role as the prisoner, who is simply trying to keep himself from getting into further trouble, but after Master Mind begins to lose it, things go south very quickly.

      Despite being the bad guy, I'm hoping people will actually come to love this character.

      Also, the majority of videos are now just links. At least you can still watch.

      Tomcat I'm not sure where the emoji list is. There probably is a way to find which emoji are supported, but I have not seen it yet. I'll update if/when I find it though.

      Yay! Letters at the top are now white in dark mode! And we have all our old reactions back!

      Maybe I have bad taste, maybe open space scares me or maybe the future scares me, but I always liked UI tight and blocky.

        packrat Yeah, those old forums were a ton easier to follow and had a more natural feel for conversation. This is just the future I guess.

        Some things are nicer on this one. One thing that I never understood on the old forum was the purpose of the points. Now I thought the list of reactions your posts got was smart, like little notices of when you're doing something right, but the points seemed... unnecessary? But that might just be me. 🤔

        I got a notification for an old post that was made before the forum changed and I don't know how to make it go away.

          Wow. Going back to previous post on this thread is going to be a pain. The crazy amount of scrolling up that is required; it makes this feels more like discord.

          Yes. They should have discussions broken down into pages again. I didn't even read everything here because of it. 🙂

          So I just made a draft for a new tutorial, but I need help with naming the section

          00 - Introduction
          01 - Basic Game (Temp)
          02 - User Interface (HUD)
          03 - SFX & Music
          04 - Advanced Game (Temp)
          05 - User Interface (Menus)
          06 - Exporting & Closing

          Section 1 and 4 need better names.

          The basic covers player character, enemies, and basic stuff, like core gameplay and similar stuff.

          The advanced covers boss battle and advanced/complex stuff, like complete/finished game.

          I was thinking of "Core Mechanics" & "Advanced Mechanics", but I'm still thinking of something better.
