This is not a BUG, this is a game feature

Chapter 17 Order fried rice at the bar

At seven o'clock in the morning, Chen Ba woke up.

When he got up to wash up, he saw Yang Dong sitting in front of the computer in the living room eating breakfast.

"Brother Dong, what do you want to eat?"

"sticky rice!"

Yang Dong raised the takeaway in his hand with one hand and signaled to Chen Ba: "This glutinous rice restaurant is quite good. It has bacon, sour radish and oil residue..."

"Oh? Is there any oil residue?"

When Chen Ba heard this, he immediately became interested: "It sounds a bit like the way my hometown makes it. We like to eat a pile of glutinous rice or a bowl of mutton powder for breakfast."

"Then you guys have quite strong tastes. Shouldn't you have a lighter breakfast?"

"not bad!"

Wiping the stubble that had just grown on his chin, Chen Ba shook his head: "We eat noodles and glutinous rice in the morning. Except for adding some chili, it's pretty light."

"The main thing is that we don't have chili peppers in our meals. It's really hard to swallow a bite."

"By the way... your glutinous rice looks good. Which one did you order? I'll order one to try too!"

"Here! This is it!"

After sharing the glutinous rice store with Chen Ba, Yang Dong picked up a piece of radish, put it in his mouth and chewed it: "The art outsourcing you found is pretty efficient. I sent a preview last night."

oh? So fast!

After ordering the takeout quickly, Chen Ba walked to the computer next to Yang Dong and sat down, then opened the preview picture that the other party sent in the matchmaking group.

The first two pictures are the original paintings of the protagonists.

Divided into two genders: boys and girls!

Chen Ba first looked at the original character painting of the male protagonist. According to the game planning, the male protagonist is a 16-year-old skinny boy.

The painting is okay!

Judging from the fineness and detail characterization, it is worthy of the price, but this face is too "two-dimensional".

"You're not looking for a 2D mobile game artist, are you? His face looks just like that of an anime hero!"

"possible."

Yang Dong deeply agreed: "Not only the face, but also the head and body look quite two-dimensional."

How could the head-to-body ratio of a normal person be like this?

All I can say is that the painting is very good but not the style they wanted. This style of painting is suitable for making a two-dimensional mobile game, but it is very strange to use it in a "household simulator".

"I'll tell them..."

There was a big problem with the first picture. Fortunately, it was just a preview line draft, not a real finished product, otherwise the problem would have been serious.

"Don't make it so two-dimensional. This is a simulation game that takes the route of realistic experience."

"The protagonist may not be so handsome, but he must be sunny and energetic, like this "High School Selfie.JPG""

Worried that the other party had no reference materials and was relying entirely on his imagination, Chen Ba even dug out photos of himself in high school and sent them to the artist.

If you send a message at this point, the other party will rarely reply, or there will be no one in front of the computer at all.

After all, these pictures were sent last night, and the painter is also a human being and needs to rest, so he is probably still dating Duke Zhou’s daughter at the moment!

Chen Ba didn't care. After sending the modification comments to the other party, he then looked at the original paintings of other characters.

Basically no problem.

If I have to find fault, it's probably that you get what you pay for. The original painting at this price does have a lot of shortcomings in terms of details.

But it's enough.

After confirming that there were no big problems with the art resources, the glutinous rice and Lu Jingquan ordered by Chen Ba arrived, so he arranged his work for the day while eating breakfast.

The core framework of the new game "The Living Simulator" is basically copied from the previous game "The Cold Study Simulator".

To put it bluntly, matryoshka dolls!

An online novel author can write several books with one outline. Except for changing the name of the protagonist and the background of the story, the plots are basically the same.

This matryoshka phenomenon also exists in the game industry. A mature template framework can produce a large number of "reskinned" games like an assembly line.

Otherwise, where do you think there are so many "legendary" games on the market?

If these games were to be renamed, they might not even bother to change their art resources. In the end, they are all from the same family, sharing the same origin!

Although "The Living Simulator" does not copy the "Hanchuang Studying Simulator", the general framework is definitely the same, and the core mechanics of the game are also similar.

This means that making this game will save a lot of work, especially the coding part...

While everyone was busy doing their own thing, Chen Ba opened the system page and checked the documents of his newly-created "Living under the Fence Simulator" project.

【97%...98%...】

[Core generation completed! 】

As the progress bar reached the end, Chen Ba quickly clicked to extract.

When he heard the beep of "extraction completed", he saw lines of brand-new code suddenly appearing on the computer screen in front of him.

This is the game core automatically generated by the system based on its specified goals. It can also be understood as the underlying code of the client.

Originally, he could have used the underlying code of "Hanchuang Kudu Simulator". After all, that set of frameworks is universal and can be used with just a few modifications.

But he didn’t dare to use it!

The core code generated last time already had a bug. Who knows if I continue to use that core, will new bugs appear this time?

So Chen Ba is very conservative.

To be on the safe side, even if it would waste a little time, he chose to regenerate the game core instead of continuing to use the underlying core of the "Hanchuang Kudu Simulator".

With the new core, there will definitely be no more bugs like the “conflict of cattle herding incidents”.

This is guaranteed.

After all, after extracting the code, Chen Ba would run it through it himself.

He also specifically tried to find out whether when game events conflict, old events will get stuck and new events will be blocked, causing the game to be unable to continue.

He was very satisfied with the result.

This time the system is obviously much more powerful, the new game core has no problems at all, and all tests passed.

"No, I have to take a test!"

"What if we really meet that weirdo who goes to the bar and orders a bowl of fried rice?"

Thinking of a test engineer joke that was widely circulated on the Internet, Chen Ba suddenly lost his smile.

Although from the current point of view, there are no major problems with the game, and the test and development work is proceeding extremely smoothly.

But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected!

You should put more thought into the work of game testing, even if it wastes more time, it is worth it. After all, some bugs are hidden deep and cannot be found without careful investigation.

Not only that.

Chen Ba also decided to create an "early access" version specifically for testing bugs before the game is released, so that players can find bugs together.

As the saying goes, if a test engineer works for ten days, his ability to find bugs is not as good as that of ten players playing for one day.

The saying that there is strength in numbers definitely makes sense when it comes to game testing.

This is also the reason why before the public beta of large-scale online games is opened, they will conduct one and two tests... and do not delete files for internal testing.

This kind of test is very necessary!

After all, there are some bugs, and the test engineer may have lost all his hair before finding the triggering conditions, but it was triggered as soon as the player came...
