Fluid sim done and sounds added! :D

And also Flick's cracks are getting even crackier! :D

Two arts for the price of one today! :D

Space goop Experiments

There are going to be a lot of technical challenges with this project, so I'm tackling a few of them now to make the animation process less laborious later. Up first is the titular jar of cosmos, or more specifically the viscous, galaxy-colored liquid therein. I was able to get what I needed from Blender's fluid sim for the liquid space, but not so much the stars. My first pass with materials came out a little janky:

Then I tried assigning an emissive material to the fluid particles, and got this odd (but twinkly!) result:

Unfortunately, I can't control that twinkling. I believe it has to do with blender recalculating the fluid sim particles every frame, and hence messing up my Random output from the Particle Info node >:( Here are a couple simulations I tried (the red particles would show up as stars):

All of these look cool in their own way, but none approximate a star field. For now, I managed to get passible material stars, but more than likely I will either jerry-rig something through compositing or figure out how to combine the fluid sim with a separate particle system so the stars look like they're coming from inside the space goop.

Why Icy Giants Have Strange Magnetic Fields

When Voyager 2 visited Uranus and Neptune, scientists were puzzled by the icy giants' disorderly magnetic fields. Contrary to expectations, neither planet had a well-defined north and south magnetic pole, indicating that the planets' thick, icy interiors must not convect the way Earth's mantle does.

Sillier idea I had; low-poly digitized floret having to get her edges and corners smoothed out so she doesn't give her high-poly pinnate any digital papercuts. It doesn't detract from the look she's going for, so it's arguably just a bit safer overall!

And, uh... the fact that she's suddenly so realistically modelled between her legs is just a coincidence, right? She almost remembers having a flat texture down there that used to change in response to pleasure between "wet" and "dry" variants, but...

How it starts

How it ends

Somewhere in between: KERSPLOOSH :D

It's 180 frames of animation and each frame is taking 1-2 minutes, so since I don't feel like staying up that late I'm gonna let it run, write some fanfic for a bit, and go to bed. I'll put it all together tomorrow :)

[alientitty]

sorry but the big simulation theory has never had appeal to me. "oh we just invented this really sophisticated machine so what if the entire universe is actually this thing we just came up with." -guy who doesn't realize the computer program is based off our current models and understanding of the universe so of course it lines up

Finished crafting my long-term build plan, besides skill books. Honestly don't know where to go from here. Probably giving each operator a module? In any case, more detailed info about what exactly I farmed below the cut. CN spoilers, photos, and a lot of talking below.

I suppose let's start with the goal.

Module 1/2/3: J/essicat Alter, L/iskarm

E1/E2/SL7: C/ivlight Eterna, A/sh, E/la

S1M1/M2/M3: P/allas, V/igil, M/izuki, C/ement

S2M1/M2/M3: S/hining, I/nsider, C/ivlight Eterna, A/miya (Medic), A/sh, H/oshiguma, S/hamare, F/iametta, I/frit, C/eobe, S/ilence Alter, S/wire Alter, A/miya (Guard), C/eylon, P/roviso, I/nes, S/iege, S/kadi, B/laze, B/lemishine, M/udrock

S3M1/M2/M3 T/horns, S/hu, S/hining, F/artooth, E/xecutor Alter, M/agallan, C/arnelian, D/egenbrecher, L/ee, S/uzuran, N/earlter, M/lynar, V/iviana, L/essing, V/irtuosa, H/oederer, E/la, B/agpipe, P/ozemka, R/osa, E/yja, P/assenger, H/o'olheyak, L/in, K/al'tsit, N/ightingale, L/umen, S/tainless, A/ak, G/ladiia, D/orothy, A/miya (Caster), S/aga, F/lametail, M/uelsyse, S/urtr, Q/iubai, C/hongyue, H/orn, E/unectes, E/xusiai, C/h'en

broke up names so I (hopefully) don't appear when searching for any operator ever lol

Before I start mastering skills, this is the stage of my depot.

Which should hopefully put into context why I have no base morale at the moment

Why didn't I start crafting earlier? Because I didn't know when I was going to be hitting the finishing point and didn't want to overcraft expensive materials that I would be getting as gameplay rewards. (Pick your poison really, if you start crafting early you can make good use of byproducts but poor use of event mats, and vice versa.)

The krooster planner I used looks like this

If I reset the stock to zero, penguin stats estimates it @ 277.5k sanity, although it doesn't account for event rewards or farming rate ups, so the real number is significantly less. It also doesn't calculate chips/skill books however, so forces going both ways on the estimate.

Upper number is how many I need, lower number is how many I have. Ignore the green book count, that's how many green books I would need if I got no more blue ones.

Blue books are what I'm farming at the moment, and the chips will be farmed once the CN operators are closer to release. I think (I hope) natural sanity and events will be enough given my backlog, but only time will tell. I don't want to do more sanity math please.

This took me, uh. About since my last build plan was completed at the end of February, so. Just over five months-ish? Unfortunately there is no satisfying payoff like the last build plan

due to masteries taking forever to complete. Near all earned OP since then was converted into sanity refreshes minus some skins. Don't have a good estimate on how much OP I bought for sanity at the moment, but it did definitely happen.

Why did I do this? A desire for maximum sanity efficiency, at first, although mostly it was a goal I set for myself about not leaving built ops or 6*s behind. (This can also be observed in how I level my operators, besides the CC12 crew, fwiplord exam crew, and some early game ops/favorites, most of my e2s are between levels 35 and 45 because I level the weakest e2 first.)

Anyways, I like having a goal to work towards in regards to building ops that can remain constant for months. Watching as the Penguin Stats sanity estimate slowly crept down (or went up when I pulled a new 6*.)

I might do a smaller build queue of 4-5* operators actually. If you made it this far, send me unbuilt ops you consider 'bad' or never see usage of (or just like) I guess.

Reliable predictions of non-Newtonian flows of sludge

Regular readers of this blog will be aware that I have been working for many years on validation processes for computational models of structures employed in a wide range of sectors, including aerospace engineering [see ‘The blind leading the blind’ on May 27th, 2020] and nuclear energy [see ‘Million to one’ on November 21st, 2018].  Validation is determining the extent to which predictions from…
