It really depends on how important the problem is, how often we expect it to come up during development, and how often we expect the players to encounter it. General solutions require significantly more effort than one-off single fixes - a one-off single fix requires only testing that one case, while general solutions require general testing from many different angles and locations.

Everyone knows that different code styles have different verbosity. You can have very dense code that implements a path tracer in 99 lines of C, or on the back of a business card (one, two). On the other side of the spectrum, you can have very elaborate code where it can take you weeks to figure out where does the actual work happen, digging through all the abstraction layers and indirections.

Hello, Im learning how to properly set a CharacterController script for a TPS character together with native physics, but Im not having much success. If I just use the CharaterController + the Rigid body, collisions do not work. And if I add a cylinder collider, it does not stand up. What would be the best way to use TPS CharacterController + real physics simulation world?

Hello friends, I am developing a game using Cocos Creator version 3.8.3. Our game is a 2D-based decoration game. So, we need a lot of images. The current resource folder capacity is over 200 MB. First of all, there was no problem before, but since this update, when I upload the abb file to the Play Store, an error message saying that the base folder capacity is exceeded appears and the update is not possible.

We are back for another look at how different countries are regulating loot boxes. There is certainly less preoccupation with the legal question of whether loot boxes are banned as a form of gambling. Unless your paid loot boxes offer random rewards that can subsequently be transferred between players, I generally wouldn't worry (except in Belgium where all paid loot boxes are banned).
