@DaVinci01. Just creating another app project: WaterCycle! (Yay) A brand new SwiftUI app to measure your water usage through a simple device which uses an ESP32 and a water flow sensor to calculate water flow and how much water is wasted (mentioned the word water too much). It uses a WiFi connection from the ESP32 and has habit and challenges functions to fix your excess water usage, with live data-pulling whenever you want. By the way my soldering iron died :sadge:
@Kaplin861Day 92 / 365
I woke up really early so I could get started on my homework early. Tommorow I have barely any homework now so I should be able to wipe out the rest of the one turret late april fools update! yay! also the little doodle for my posts going forward will now have a chance to have gray in it rather than black and white, if it helps the drawing. Fun fact i have lost 2 subscribers from my april fools youtube video.
📝@glitch_purge0Hi! I'm working on my second (or first idk) megaproject!
And for some reason I chose to call it egg labs 🐣 (insert skulkest emoji).
Its a free catalogue of tools (™️) for everyone!
Current it has..... drum roll please..... NO FEATURES 💀 (yay!)
Well it has a partially done buggy sign up system that I'm fixing somehow.
Take a look ig (the empty space is overwhelming ik)
Working on the sign up flow and I'm going with a clean UI so yeah ik its not fun, but trust, once I reach dashboard, I'll leave yall with one thing 🥚
🚀@Kaplin861Day 86 / 365
Its kaplin(86) day!! yay!!!!!! anyways in one of my classes today i was the only one with a presentation finished so i had to present when nobody else was. though it was a pecha kucha (20 slides 20 seconds each) about my game dev journey so it wasnt THAT stressful. Anyways when I got home I finished up that overdose awareness game for my mom. After that I tried to make a utauloid of myself because that sounded funny. though I was having some technical difficulties and sorta gave up when i was pulled away from the computer for dinner. Rest of the day i sorta just felt tired. Sadly didnt do all that much. The hackclub summer internships came in, and i didnt get in. But there will likely be other opportunities, plus i might just host the ysws myself in the summer. also going forward i will be trying to add little doodles of my character guy oc thing every post based on what i wrote, since its day 86
🖋️☀️🎮@Kaplin861Day 82 / 365
I didn't have that much homework (probably since i just got off spring break) so i had plenty of time today! I chilled and played some games, bug tested my two of my friend's game, and also worked on one turret! Im doing a task ive been anticipating for a while, which is rewriting one turrets main script, which dates back to roughly 2 years ago. It is really bad. over 1400. doesnt sound that bad, but its mostly the contents thats the issue. that chunk of code handled too much stuff, like tile placing, tile simulation, loading all the tile, type, and recipe data, handling enemy cash reward, handling waves (not the spawning), having death screen, and even more junk. Plus a lot of stuff is hardcoded in there too. Im remaking the system from the ground up (sorta), where its the same script but broken up into multiple nodes. So far I got through a simple tile manager, simulation manager, and rendering manager. This new system, rather than hardcoding behaviors, will now contact external static scripts to figure out what to do. I got conveyors working in this new system :) making changes to this system later will be MUCH easier too! the new system also fixes a visual bug thats ALWAYS been in the game where the item will dissapear for a frame when jumping conveyors. video attached is what i got so far (conveyors slowed down for demonstration purposes)
also only a few days until day 86! :yay: get it because like kaplin86 okay i will see myself out thank you🎮📝🐛@ingobeans0:yay:do YOU have a project you want to share? create a 722x84 banner for it and upload to <https://hack.irispond.net/|Hackvertisements>!!!!:yay:
Hackvertisements are small banner embeds you can add to your website. every time the page is loaded, it will display a random Hackvertisement submitted by fellow hackclubbers, showcasing off a certified cool project :3
(theres nothing commercial about these, really just a fun way to share your projects!!!)
you can create as many hackvertisements you want for your projects, and you also get to pick a link for the hackvertisement to take people when clicked. you can also edit and delete uploaded hackvertisements, so you can always update them later!!
if you dont feel very creative or dont currently have a project you want to share, go ahead and instead add the hackvertisement embed to your own website!! its a really fun way to show off the hackclub community and make your website more lively :3c: (there is also a leaderboard for the pages that have shown the most hackvertisements)
🚢@seven0Day 52 (or 31)

🎂@Kaplin861Day 41 / 365
Somehow I think I ended up doing less than yesterday?!?!?! Anyways I gave another go at trying to make a progress bar ui in hytale. I started by using the MultipleHUD mod as a dependency so then my mod can co-exist with other mods. Took a while and bug fixing to get working, but I eventually got a label to show up, yay!! how amazing and totally great!! If you couldnt tell, a label is not a progress bar. But rather than making the UI once, it basically makes a new one every tick, so I think tommorow I just need to make it where a colored box element changes in width based on a character stat. I think. we will see.

Today on my aces game I made stuff
yeah thats it bye
jk
I made the board round, physical turn indicator, and the sky changes colors to represent the combined follower colors of the current player. Users now get shown their cards rather than the hardcoded ones i have in the scene. Some cards will now be cancelled if it cant do a specific effect properly (i.e. kill 2 crimson civillians to get amber followers. If there are no more crimson civillians, the card wont run now )
Engrams of chaos got accepted into #C0A8CMWM0CR| for 1 full page! yay!🎮@qwwertyz0Week 1

I also worked on one turret a bit by designing 2 more achievement graphics (technically 4 but i hate one so i will redo it later)
🎮@logabe0Day 50: The final day!
• Nearly finished w/ adding devlogging to Milkyway Pets. All that remains is to make the submit button work :yay-mimi:
• Parent call for Overglade! My parents are mostly okay with my going, which is good because I'm planning to get the ticket within the next ~2 days :hyperfastyay:
• Messaged my friends about meeting up in the new year.
Looking back on this now, the 11th of November seems both so recent, and such a long time ago. While I'd be lying if I said I've changed much as a person, the past 50 days have made me realise that challenges that might seem daunting or even impossible (earning my drivers licence, attending an international Hack Club event) are a lot less scary if you just set your goals and slowly and surely work your way towards them. Day. By. Day.
And of course, having a community that can encourage you and has your back makes a huge difference :)
I'm probably gonna do a proper writeup sometime in the next week, but until then you can find me chipping away at my goals over in #C09PQFWEC8N|. I hope you've all had a great year, and I wish you the very best for the next :salute:
🎟️@Akaalroop0I made a bot which gives you minecraft recipes!
It was a pain generating all the 519 images of crafting recipes, but yeah I did it! :yay:
I made it in Kotlin so it will eat all the RAM on my RPI Zero 2W on which it is hosted :thumbup-nobg:
Hopefully you like it!
It’s @MCRecipes !
Just ask for any recipe like: @MCRecipes oak boat

🎒🎸@revi0programming languages compile down to bytecode, then machine code. its all machine code at the roots, machine code all around
you could say machine code is the final layer, the most basic, the most fundamental thing the computer parses
but what if you took a different approach?
PARAMATH!! the language that compiles NOT TO MACHINE CODE, but to MATH!! it uses math to approximate binary logic, which means now (at least in theory) you can run code on a scientific calculator!!
like everything i make, its a proof of concept, and this is my most recent and most proudest brainchild of all!
the github repo is github.com/kaemori/paramath, dont look too close :3c🚢@jollyroger1820[41/50] today (or rather yesterday ig) i did:
