[–] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 child) I used it to make a dialog system in a video game. It made it, but it was needlessly complex and ten times as long as the code needed to be. No thanks, i don't need a buggy mess that's unmaintainable. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Aedis@lemmy.world 1 point 3 months ago (1 child) Note: I didn't say - use it to code. But real question for you. Is the alternative you wouldn't have done that at all? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago Yes, I've made a dialog system before. The context I found myself in was a game jam with a short amount of time using an engine I hadn't used in years. Thought it would help instead of following a tutorial. But honestly, by the end of the jam, I really didn't feel like rewriting the dialog system bcz it was so messy. permalink fedilink source parent
