this problem was so major that it made me frustrated and possibly make you frustrated
what happened is that i made a thing nd it was stable untill i placed it in my phunlets and placed it into a new world
i cant explain this problem so just have a look for yourself
what happened was it was completeley unstable and broken
like this phunlet right here
also sometimes it would also forget the coloration of some pieces as well
trust me this will make alot of people frustrated
wondering what i made? i made a house with
a working breaker box
it took so much time and then it broke:(
it took so ling because i was using springs and they can be very derpy
the problem was i had the spring distance and constraint too high
this made me very confused possibly for about 1 hour or so
all because in a sertain update they made
caused the phunlet box
to become very very idiotic

there are many many more unreported problems as well such as the spongeify sometimes crashes the game once used
random25 made this retard
roman made the house
ik but random made the working power
and i gave credit to random
too
the picture dosent show everything
Very major problem? :s The only thing that I see happening when I start Algodoo is the laser beam is a little shaky, which can easily be fixed. Other than that, nothing else happens. So, could you be more specific about what the problem is instead of just saying there's a very major problem?

Thanks
but its true
this does happen to me
so here is what happens
i spawn it in a new world once and then
the metal bits that make the laser
work started jumping around the light was broken the picture fell off
and the laser was weird
like shown in the scene
theres also a problem with spongifying where the game crashes on occasion on use
can you fix this
too because its pretty annoying
also my grinder has the same problem
sometimes when it cuts it crashes the game
i find these the most annoying to deal with because
of how much you need to use sponge sometimes to create a good scene
and many people played my scenes with the grinders in it witch is possibly why i dont get many comments on them
also the metal bits problem is there but hard to see
so you look at the first one that the laser hits off and look at velocities
its very very rare that the grinders crashes the game but i have seen it happen
mabe its because its cutting the pieces up into sizes the game cant process that leads to a crash
but it is legendary so unless you use it alot you arent going to see crashes come out of it
even though the game can process pixel small processes
but still not infinite
i know this because nothing in this game is infinite unless
you use scripts
eventually people will quit algodoo
because at one point people will run out of ideas even though there are over 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000­00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000­00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000­0000000000000000000000000000000000 possibiliys it still isnt infinite ideas thats why you dont see many things with old users, they quit algodoo because afer a while of playing it mabe 10 years or so people get bored of the game
and were about to get to another problem people sometimes quit algodoo
its insaneley rare but does happen sometimes
NO SOUND
there isnt any sound in the game
this can cause new people to quit the game because they are so use to sound in things that you can mess around in
even though there are many games that dont have sound
they are not very popular
well some of the games without sound are still popular they are pretty old
i can undstand that this game is very old
(made a few years ago)
but still i think you could add sound
in this year
i mean its 2015
most games these days have sound
Whoa whoa whoa stop commenting so much :blink: You could have told us all that in one simple comment and with caps in the proper places (;) )
So let's start:

1- Shaky things
This may happen if you have two objects in the same collision layer, i.e. they are upon each other and that wouldn't be possible in real life at all. Just uncheck their collision layer.
OR go to Options -> Simulation -> frequency slider and raise it to 120 or 200 Hz. that makes the scene more accurate but keep in mind that it's gonna lag if you use lots of water or 100+ objects

2- Spongify crashes game
There's no solution to that in short term, because the developers are not working on Algodoo anymore (maybe later they'll do something, but not right now.) Anyways no one uses that feature.

3- No comments
Make better scenes

4- Grinders crash the game
Nope, that's your computer. Also those "grinders" (aka laser cutters) cut the pieces to a very small size, and then cut it again if they're still there. So that gives insane amounts of lag. Just try not to use it.

5- People are gonna quit Algodoo
Most of us did, temporarily. I went AWOL for 'bout 3 months or even more, because of lack of ideas even though I know some Thyme. Vaidas369 was absent even more time. But Algodoo isn't so freaking old (10 years?? xD) This version (2.1.0) has been around for less than 2 years, and some people who aren't active and uploading are still lurking around in Algobox and the forum.

6- NO SOUND
That's relative. There's no sound ingame and easy to use whatsoever, but you can add sound to Algodoo with a mod. But it's ridiculously hard to use as you need sound files and they are just played when you want them to be.
Also, think about it. If Algodoo had built-in sound and maybe some way to create your own sound file, why do you think it would be easy to use? Sound is hard to work with. P.P.S: this is a physics simulator, it isn't "just a normal 2015 game". It simulates physics, not sound ;)

Thank God there's no word limit!
can i use house?
you have to give credit to 2 people though and me as well i created the electricity breaker random11 for the elecricity and roman for the house
umm, can i ask, did i go overboard on diffrent things i wanted to talk about?
Yes, you did. It seems every time you think of something new, you add another comment rather than putting all of your thoughts in ONE comment. People don't like that, and it makes you look like a moron (no insult intended). If you post a comment and then later think of something more to add, just EDIT your original comment rather than post a new one. I don't think you can edit comments if you use the Algodoo built-in scene browser. You would have to use a standard web browser such as Chrome, Firefox, or Internet Explorer. I never use the built-in browser because it sucks. But some people do use it, and it limits what they can do.

Concerning any repairs or updates to Algodoo, it will probably never happen, so we are stuck with exactly how it currently is. I don't have a problem with some of the issues that you have complained about because I know how to work around most of those problems. And that's my suggestion to you. Find out what it takes to work around those few little problems that you mentioned, and then you will no longer be annoyed by them!

That's all....


EDIT: I wanted to show you what an edited comment looks like, and so I added this just for you! This is what YOU can do if you would use a regular browser instead of that stupid Algodoo browser. Try it!
