ITT: times you noticed when a dev took a programming shortcut
What am I supposed to be seeing here?
the jump points in FTL look like they're spread around randomly but they're actually arranged in a grid. i think
They are! The links themselves are proximity based, but the map itself is tile-based despite portraying otherwise.
You can make a grid with any star map....
"programming"
there's only ever 1 star in each grid square
Yes, and? You can always make an arbitrary sized grid that contains at most one star.
>in4 b-b-but it has to contain at least 1 as well
Even your picture has an empty grid so don't try it m8.
Oh fuck, I never noticed this
explain how this is a short cut when it's more work than putting them truly randomly in the sector and getting clusters of shit which everyone would complain about?
