so this is happening.

All my #Rust #RustLang repos are moved over. Now I just need to figure out CI, republish to crates.io, and archive the github side (and document a tombstone in their readmes).

I have a bunch of other repos I'll either archive or delete as well.

#KDL and #orogene will remain github-side for now because they're a bit more dependent on github services, but I would like to at least move orogene over eventually. KDL might be stuck, though, unfortunately, but I might move only kdl-rs.

An interesting bug: I added sound effects to my prototype and it broke the shuttle launches: the shuttles would (sometimes) not launch and the orbits would not despawn. after a few rotations plenty of transfer orbits were left unused.

It turns out that shuttle launch state being entirely encoded in timers relies on systems running in the right order – not super stable. I fixed that for now, but I ought to turn that into a proper state machine.

I'm back and recovered from #rustweek, and it's time for your weekly #bevymergetrain. As part of our unconf there, the community did a ton of #opensource PR review for #bevy <3 Wildly appreciated!

This roundup will be extra long (50 PRs!): https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pulls?page=2&q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+label%3AS-Ready-For-Final-Review

For my indie game studio, I made a Discord community for updates, playtesting and feedback discussions. Feel free to join to follow my work:

(I will still post updates here, of course.)

I'm about to give my #rust talk about #bevy's immutable components at #rustweek. This is a fun "story" talk, about how a weird little bug turned into an important feature for #gamedev. Watch the live stream here!

#bevy is steadily maturing, but even as we add features, users are struggling to piece together how to do common #gamedev tasks in a new engine, and an ECS paradigm.

I'd like to fix that, so I wrote up a proposal for a new class of usage examples! https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy-website/pull/2131

Please RT: we (Bloom Digital) are looking for a short-term contract hire, someone with #bevy and #rust experience!

LongStory 2 is set to come out next month and we have a handful of technical hurdles to get over. You'd be helping us with our in-house bevy-based engine and tools.

This would be ~3-4 weeks of work, fully remote. Please reach out to me here or email jp@bloomdigital.to. Thank you!

EDIT: Thanks everyone, we've got a few responses already and will follow up with them!

B . E . V . Y Rusting Everything... #rustlang #esp32 #bevy

I have the impression that I slowly get a better understanding of how the #ECS of #Bevy is supposed to be used and what is possible to do with it. Feels like it will have a serious impact on my brain.

Any #rustlang people tried using #bevy for a #gui desktop application? Not a game, just like a normal gui with some buttons and data. Seems promising to me.

Another great video by @chrisbiscardi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zdp5snztzE8 I especially appreciate that software concepts are boiled down to flammable paper in a wooden chest. Everything becomes simpler if you can explain it in terms of RPGs.

At 2:00 there is the HookContext with a caller in it. The caller seems to know the line number that caused the hook to be called.

I don't get how this works. Is it a #Rust feature I don't know? #bevy magic? ...?

Is this the future of terminal gaming?

I added an 'outline' shader (copied this: https://github.com/Pybounce/rollable). I need to make some adjustments, but I think its pretty cool! What do you think?
