I think its really just the trappings of game development being full of tribal knowledge. The tutorial probably should have instructed you create box colliders for walls (giving a greater area for the physics engine to catch collisions) rat

That's not a bug just an inherent problem with using very thin colliders with a discrete collision detection system. It's not a Unity problem and Unity allows you to configure continuous collision detection to prevent tunneling h

For a while now Unity has an incremental garbage collector where you pay a small amount of time per frame instead of introducing large pauses every time the GC kicks in. Even without the incremental GC it's manageable and it's jus

Do you not plan to go grocery shopping or do you always do it on the spur of the moment? I'm not sure what the issue is. If you need to pick up something small from the store on the way somewhere you can definetly get a small always ca

There's more of tangeable value from buying property in virtual game worlds in the sense people get to use those property or items when normally in the game they would not be able to. For things like ship preorders on Star Citizen it&#

When you reallocate your array you will in memory have your old array and your new larger array while you move your data over. At the very least you're using 2x and the extra memory for your expansion. For your other points if you'

It's not great to have to double your memory usage while you reallocate your array. On more limited devices (see games consoles or mobile devices) you'll end up fragmenting your memory pretty quickly if you do that too often and t

Exactly, the smaller your chip is the more you can fit on a silicon wafer. If your chip is too large it can even make it practically impossible to manufacture at scale due to the increased chance of defects as your chip size increases.

Yeah I thought it was just a scare tactic and something the licence 'enforcers' could say (i.e. 'our detector van says you have a tv') to try and catch people out. They surely can't get too much of a return paying p

The M1 is on a 5nm process from TSMC. I'm sure if AMDs Zen 3 (eg Ryzen 5600x) was also on that process instead of 7nm the perf/power ratio would be similar

I'd second ImageOptim on Mac or PNGGauntlet on Windows https://pnggauntlet.com . I'd be careful using pngquant as well, as it will only ever give you 256 or less colour image or your original image back. PNGGauntlet an

Is there any point (for games) in having that much memory when you can really only address about 9 GB a frame at 60Hz (Titan Xp is 550GB/s)? I mean its certainly better than the Titan X (Maxwell) which could only address less than half
