The HARDEST thing to make for game developers 👩‍💻 #technology #programmer #gamedev #software #tech

As a gamedev, I can confirm that the seemingly easiest things are usually the hardest.

Minecraft: “binary door goes

I’m totally fine with the “player pushes through the door” approach. Like in Far Cry for example.

There is nothing particular with doors. The thing is generally there are lots of problems when developing games, "door problem" is just a common story to illustrate how hard game development generally is to someone who does not know how hard game dev is.

"door stuck" appreciation comment

2 things called physics and collisions without which ur door wont work at all

[JustPyroYT]

I honestly didn't expect that doors are so difficult to implement...

Ex-game dev here. I remember when I was making my first 3D game, and the biggest problem for me was to make a system to create a hole in the wall, which would be exactly the door's shape, so I could fit my door model in. If you are not a mapper, or 3D person and going at this problem first, it will take a few hours to get to how to do it.

i feel like there was an analogy for life in there somewhere 😂

Fromsoftware’s solution is just have it be an animation which is genius in a way 😂

[LordBete]

I wouldn’t say doors are the hardest thing but certainly the sentiment is true, the simplest things are often the hardest

[FreddyRangel]

Omg this is such a good example of what is hard in programming. I use the analogy that anyone can open a door handle but creating a door handle is tricky

[Rupertboijedi]

If making doors is the hardest thing to make in your game then I i say you've got it pretty good! 😂

[flyingrickracoon]

Moral of the story:don't make doors

[RomanianProductions]

As a game developer I just use a raycast for interaction and then linear interpolation from the current rotation to plus 90° of rotation

I never knew LSPLASH had such a hard time coding the DOORS horror game

[Speiger]

You guys should look up the door problem. It is a really interesting/funny read.

[k_gold]

In such things, simple is often the best answer. It should be treated like any other 3D entity(in 3D games), if a player *bumps* into it, it moves

[zeyadmoustafakamal]

I really love the way you walk and say jokes 😂❤❤

Fromsoft: Just make the player an immortal god while opening doors.

[westleyhurtgen]

Intruders has one of the most unique implementation of doors, it allows you to use the scroll wheel when looking at door to open it precisely. It fits well in a game about stealth and planning
