Software Dev Reacts to Let's Game It Out Build a Nuclear Air Force in Hydroneer 

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND MERRY FRICKIN CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!! This video was really fun to make! I hope you all enjoy it too and I hope you all have a great weekend! Thank you for watching! 😁

The code quality doesn't matter when Josh is added into the equation.

I've done a bit of game development myself and i have a couple of ideas as far as the carts flying around. I'm guessing when an object is placed on top of another object, it's made static, moves with the other object, and collision is disabled between the two objects. In this case, I think that collision is disabled between the cart and the pallet and that collision is disabled between the item on the pallet and the pallet, but not between the item on the pallet and the cart. Since the cart is dynamic and the object attached to it and constantly colliding with it is static, that produces a constant force that makes the cart go crazy.

A tester test stuff for the purpose of finding and fixing flaws. Josh test things with the purpose of generating the maximum amount of chaos possible, and a few crimes against humanity if possible. Josh is the fifth Chaos God. Khorne, Slaneesh, Nurgle, Tzeentch and Josh.

"Not going to judge their code" Considering this velocity is only happening because of a very strange bug, I think we could forgive the code for not being able to handle what looks like hundreds of collisions a second, since it's not supposed to be happening like that in the first place.

Krakenfall, I have a horrible confession. For the very first time, I watched your video before watching Josh's. I will now make up for my crime by watching his video.

I figure Josh has some of the push the limits testing mindset but since he’s doing it for entertainment purposes, if he doesn’t get amusing results, he can just move on. Sure he’s pushing into corner cases and discovering unexpected interactions among multiple systems, but he isn’t tasked with verifying ALL possible combinations or trying to pinpoint what systems are going wrong.

"Above ground subway." So, a train?

Honestly I love your reactions to Let's Game It Outs game breaking videos

He did the same thing (trench with explosives) in Astroneer of course he dug the trench around the entire planet.....

funny enough Josh just made a new Hydroneer video and let me tell you. Seeing the king of chaos do something organized is a vary scary thing.

Hydroneer devs are cheering now that he released a new video yesterday and they can fix everything he abused in the worst way lol And merry Christmas!

10:04 it's body collision. The character, pallet, and card are always constant. If you look you will see that whenever he gets off the cart the character pops up on top of the handles...but if there's a pallet in the way the game has to make a choice on what to move and in this case it's that cart. Why it flips out is not something I wouldn't know but the easy fix would be to just add no clipping to the card handles

Cat cam 😄 And just the right amount of analysis and fun in watching LGIO

Consider the "subscribe button" licked. Unrelated sidebar: I'm no longer allowed in this library.

I found some people who play games with Josh offline they say he does this stuff all the time they've said there's not really any reason why other than why not I think he just really likes chaos

He just released a new hydroneer yesterday. It's hilarious

Merry Christmas, Kraken! I love the hat 😂

This is one of my favorite videos of his 😂 The flying carts and Josh's reactions are so hilarious

I would just like to point out an above ground subway system is called a train. :3

6:50 The best explaination i got is, The Pallet is trying to Grab the cart, And the cart is trying to grab the pallet so since it will always change the position it will glitch and make it fly

15:05 like super mario 64 BLJ clipping through objects

Like you I like watching Josh because he seems to genuinely have fun doing this stuff. Not just a little fun, genuine glee based on the fun he has.

You think that's crazy, you should see what he did to Astroneer.

I'm getting Douglas Adams vibes from your thumbnails lately and I love it.

I love the cat cam 😂

What you are telling about ticks and calculations, with going through a wall sounds like the youtuber DocM77 did on the HErmitcraft server: Accelerationg an arrow to about 1000 blocks per tick, then shot it in the direction of an enderman, to make it fly through almost 1000 blocks of solid minecraft world, because the calculation already did one colision test in that tick.

What is really happening is that the pallet bug still hasn't been fixed and whenever something hits something else really hard and fast it'll create a hole for a few seconds and then fixes itself and then continues until the game slows down to a point where the game crashes

First video I have ever watched from this guy, and he has a cat cam, for when he is petting his cat, W man

When you were talking about the problems of high velocity in games that reminded me of one of the things I encountered in the Forza Motorsport franchise where certain parts of the track wouldn’t be able to load/render in fast enough by the time you were driving over them, resulting in you driving over an invisible track

Josh was simulating atomic movement and quantum tunneling in gasses)

I remember this stream, the ending qas so oddly satisfying

It looks like the pallet is attaching to the cart which is attaching to the pallet. So each time the pallet updates position it updates the cart position which updates the pallet in an endless cycle.

I forgot to comment on this one sorry Hobbs (and person). In seriousness though I really enjoy watching you reacting to videos, you really contribute something other than funny faces when you talk about logic and try to trouble shoot.

I really enjoyed your discussion of the logic of how the programs worked. It was fascinating.

Josh is the greatest and most entertaining beta tester a company could ask for!

Let's Game it Out recently uploaded a new hydroneer vid and it will answer the question if you are goin to die in hydroneer. that one is hilarious

Beautiful migration of a murder of carts

Instructions unclear, monitor now has giant smear over where the like button is.

There's now a new one, for after the festivities I suspect. Featuring my favorite: tomatoes!

kitteh-cam! I love that the Hydroneer Dev's put a Wanted Poster in the game with a reward for Let's Game It Out.

Regarding those fast moving objects and collision checks, wasn´t there a way to prevent those skipped collisions? I once read something about objects checking not only if they collide at their current position, but if there would be a collision in their path from the position from the last frame to their position in the current frame. So if there was an object in that path because the object moved to fast, then the game would set it back to that position, where it should have happened between those frames.

I see the carts and just imagine seagulls stealing your food off the beach picnic blanket, just swoops in and YOINK!

Your so right I would totally use some of his videos for training new testers

Merry frickin Christmas my guy enjoy the holidays

glad to see hobbes less stressed. thanks :)

LOL covering your cable management with your hand like you're covering your who-hah from peeking out the leg of your shorts LOL

Merry holiday

And funny you corrected yourself when saying minutes per frame since he dropped a new Hydroneer vid.

I loved to see the sparkles in your eyes during some partsof this video 🥰 Can't wait for the next one, or next live ^^ (criminal_mustache)

14:00 Bro just casually explained why we live in a simulation and why physical things can't travel at higher speeds, than the speed of light

the fix for the group collision is as simple as attaching another part to the carts etc that gets reconstructed each time items are added/removed, then the items themselves are partially deleted, just their details like weight etc is recorded in a list attached the carts etc, that way only the collision for the carts etc and their reconstructed static parts are processed. As for the explosions, the simplest performance solution is to just set a limit to the chain reaction, beyond that just treat it all as one big explosion

8:15 he might think like a tester but as they say "curiosity killed the cat... and gave LGIO entertainment"

Been watching for a moment and I like how you break down the logic. I subbed when you started talking about how the beehive of carts was working and how it could be expanded upon with better hardware. Absolutely unnecessary but hilarious and informative.

Merry Christmas 😄🎄

The fast moving carts inside the box wouldn't slow the game down, because the rate at which the collisions register is still the same, but as far as I know from my experience with vertex handling and collision detection (Clonk Rage, look it up) there's no way for a game engine to know if two objects collide with each other multiple times per tick, unless the developer specifically gave it the ability to, so there's a limited amount of collisions per tick that can happen inside the box (and that btw is the difference between a quantized universe with finite precision and a continuous universe with infinite precision. We live in the former and so do game engines). I'm guessing that the game crashed the second time due to a floating point or overflow error, like the collisions in confined space caused the carts to move faster than the engine can mathematically resolve and it crashed. The first crash with the nuke was probably a null pointer exception, as in, a cart tried to collide with a tile that blew up during the same tick or the one before, the collision handler tried to grab data that was no longer available and the devs didn't account for that to happen (because it's a weird, unlikely precedent, so I don't blame them) I could be completely wrong, but that's my take on this.

Minecraft custom flat world's change the row of block above bedrock to tnt dig down and light it. XD

If you want to see him in full testing mode you need to watch the satisfactory episode with the hypertubes. Great video

bro i watched this when i came out (good video btw) and after rewatching im pretty sure you got no pants on

Simple explanation, Josh is insane with play throughs. Like throw logic out the window, and just break the game. He does it every time. He is a master at the craft of breaking games. It's late for me so let continute the video. Enjoy.

Nice cat. 11/10 would pet at any given chance.

That was how Bioshock Infinite's floating city was built.

In hydroneer i remember some RU-vidr was just normally playing and his truck just started flying around

“It wasn’t as fun as the first dying light 2” 😂

EVERYTHING BECOMES MEGA-CART

Good embrace your inner JOSH

@2:49 - From this I can see that the developers still haven't added brakes to the vehicles. Oh wait! Josh drives (or more precisely, *stops* driving) like this in pretty much every game that gives him something to drive.

Hydroneer transportation services are very painful 😂😂😂😈

It's too late, I already licked it. It didn't taste like snozzberries

Hmmm, so it seems that certain items dampen the effect of the cart glitch, so is there an item that still goes fast but can be controlled? And if so, how can we turn it into a working aircraft?

you don’t need to nuke em, you just need to disable it’s physics by idk like restarting the game

Happy holidays

it seriously looked like you weren't wearing any pants when your cat was in your lap.

I like the cat cam.

Josh more like a curious man in my opinion

Let's get Josh a quantum computer

good cat cam

11:29 perfect

Marry Chris Tmas I never said how much I love your intro is is adorable and I like the tune of the piano

11:51 cartamari

josh has way to much time on his hands X'D

I love cats. I'm not there yet to subscribe, but I'm paying attention. Lets go.

Merry Christmas Kraken!

let's game it outs got a new one on farming.🤣

Your cat is adorable

The long dark is the only survival game for me. No zombies and its a superior game for it.

cat cam is best cam

The thing about game testing, you don't just mess around, you also fill out paperwork on the bug you find etc, so I can understand why Josh doesn't want to do it

Video was cool. Hobbes is great.

I have an explanation the nuke is both on the pallet and the cart so it hit box in in side the pallet

I feel like now we will now have to have a bed to respawn at in some update

Merry Christmas!

16:30 Hydroneer uses Unreal engine 4

He just dropped a new one

I mean, things should never be moving this fast in the first place in a game like this. And as a developer myself, there are only so many hours in a sprint, and it does not make sense to spend those hours guarding against conditions that shouldn't be happening in the first place. You fix the root problem, not the secondary issues that only arise from the first failure.

Hydroneer doesn’t have a health bar so you can’t die.

not sure if that bug is still there. Hydroneer devs have completely revamped the game.

I think there are at least 13 developers watching let's game it out because they work on a game that he plays and want to make sure that he can't break it

I wish software testers were like Josh, that would be a lot less buggy software around. Basically watching LGIO videos should be mandatory for all major game publishers ..

It past Christmas but marry Christmas 🎄
