That's a really hard to read article which is summarizing a couple of tweets.
- bjterry 5y agoHere's the original tweet, for those interested. The content is essentially identical either way: https://twitter.com/JoelBurgess/status/1428008041887281157 https://twitter.com/JoelBurgess/status/1428008041887281157
- drzaiusapelord 5y agoThanks for the original link! I find it so hard to read text with animated gifs right below them. I literally had to scroll the gifs off the screen to read the test. Its just too distracting and there's no stop animation option on twitter. Its just incredible how this world is made for people who have high levels of on-demand focus and there's no care for us who don't have that skill or neurotypicality.
- argvargc 5y agoWell... 13 tweets, but they're a good read nonetheless.
- lucb1e 5y agoIndeed. The TL;DR of the whole thing seems to be: Spooked foxes aim to be 100 "triangles" away from the player on a pathfinding mesh. Where are they likely to run into the 100th triangle? In a place with a lot of pathing points, so it'll often lead you to a camp or something interesting. ^fits in one tweet and no cookie wall minigame required
- drzaiusapelord 5y agoWhich is funny because we have so much story telling and myth that suggests the same thing. Our hero lost somewhere follows a wild animal which brings him to food or water or treasure or shelter. In real life, animals might also be seeking out that 100th triangle. In low density areas like fields they are super exposed to predators and the elements so if chased or watched, they'll go to places with complexity and resources. I think this is a very amusing and interesting parallel between the virtual worlds we build and the real one nature built.
