And due to mod development being more convoluted nature, it helps teach aspiring devs to accept and be okay with stopgap solutions and hacks to achieve their goals.

In professional there is no project which doesn't require you to take shortcuts and implement "ugly" solutions to "ugly" problems at some point in development, no matter if it's an or production.

I can't be at my personal computer very often so I have to find other ways to work on projects throughout the day:

➡️ Fill out my to-do list
➡️ Write dialogue or tutorial prompts
➡️ Research reference art/music
➡️ Look up tutorials for things I haven't tried
➡️ Plan code structure (classes, data structs, etc)
➡️ Toot about it!

Anyone have good to add?

Tip: Hoy alguien del equipo puso en texto algo como "Hay menos lag cuando aparecen muchos personajes"

Se más claro en los cualitativos (¿cómo?) y cualitativos (¿cuántos?)

"Los FPS bajan a 25 cuando aparecen 30 personajes"

There is no final game version, you're just feature creeping until something or someone stops you and calls what you've got so far 'the final version'

An important aspect in any game that is often overlooked is keeping your hitboxes fair. Don't ruin an amazing game with questionable hitboxes!
