#principia — Public Fediverse posts

I'm currently revisiting some old #Principia adventure levels I originally made as part of a bigger level package that I never ended up completing. Going to upload the good ones as separate levels once I have finished up them.

The times I get to spend fully immersed in the sandbox is few and far between, so I'm always a bit rusty in the beginning, but get the hang of things again eventually...

I really enjoy treating the LuaScript objects as small programmable circuits like an Arduino that I can just wire up with stuff in the world to do something small, when I'm too lazy to think of how to do it using signaling components.

#Principia now has a bridged community on #Fluxer, go check them out! Can't wait for the next contest idea.

Principia for Sale

With Christmas approaching, you may be looking for gift ideas so I thought I would pass on this advertisement:

The book concerned is a First Edition of the Continental Issue of Isaac Newton’s Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, dated 1687.

For more details see here. The estimate is “only” €100,000, which seems to me a bit on the low side. A similar volume was listed by Christie’s in 2016 as $1,000,000 to $1,500,000 but in the end sold for $3.7 million. This one has had some repairs and is slightly browned with age, but has an interesting provenance. I’d be surprised if it didn’t fetch at least a million. We’ll find out in a week!

@famulimas Ligatures often cause more problems than they solve. As a single shape, the letters will resist tracking and increasingly stand out. There are ways of drawing that allow unruly terminals to be managed and still facilitate tracking. A contextual alternative for the f, with a reduced terminal, tracks like any other glyph and removes dozens of ligatures. Fewer axes and objects to manage, smaller font. Shown here LTR Principia https://letterror.com/principia #opentype #principia #officially

The #Principia Wiki has a page about #Apparatus which has since become one of the most visited pages coming from Google search results.

Even now with Principia being revived as open source and such, it still seems to be overshadowed by the popularity Apparatus had back in the day. Which is unfortunate, but hey, I have lots of nostalgia for it too.

So I decided to set up a new website for collecting information about the game, intended to look very similar to the old community site for the game:

Now that I have moved from @[email protected] to here I should maybe do a new #introduction post.

My username is ROllerozxa, I'm from Gothenburg, Sweden. I'm a programmer and currently studying software engineering at university.

I'm the maintainer of the now open source physics-based sandbox game #Principia, but you may also know me from #BoxSmasher, my work on #Luanti (formerly #Minetest) or various other open source projects I have worked on.

Other than that I do other interesting things (blogging, archival, talking about the weather, eating soused herring, cuddling my Blåhaj, etc.)

Now I'm wondering: is there a collection of contraptions and levels built for @principia to play with it around like in #TheIncredibleMachine? Sort of a #RubeGoldbergMachine, but with #DIY set to make more such levels, you know... :ablobcatwave:

Post inspired by https://mastodon.social/@256/112417780225247409 and reminiscing about mid-00s #RubeGoldberg type videogame that I can't remember the name of.
