Hello, fellow Tankies! Welcome back to my continuing adventure of building a lewd VR communist brainwashing experience for Jordan Peterson and his incel masses as per Xi’s personal instructions.
Last weekend I finished up the answer selection solution by using the thumbstick to select the diagonal direction and activating a radial slider that corresponds to the answer of that direction. It gives the user a few seconds before locking in the answer. Major props to @[email protected] for putting the radial menu of other games in my head and putting me down that path.
I actually had to take apart my Quest 2 Controller to clean the thumbstick as it was sticking so bad that it just got stuck in Down/Right for a while. Cleaning worked but I’ve lost the touch sensitivity of where your thumb is supposed to rest. I can’t think of a time I’ve actually used that function, that wasn’t just novelty, so it can wait for a while before I take it apart again.
Yesterday, I hammered out version 1 of Question serving and Answer handling. As the video shows it now tells you if your answer is right or wrong and then serves up a new question. I’ve only got handful of questions so far which is why sometimes it looks like the question hasn’t changed in the video. I’ve also made it so the answer is randomly assigned to one of the four answer spots with the wrong answers filled in to the empty spaces afterwards. None of this is set in stone, especially not the graphics or timing or anything, but I just want to get everything working enough for prototyping a full alpha version.
In version 1 of the Quiz minigame I’m not doing any weighting or behind the scenes algorithms, things are purely going to be served according to Random.Range, but in future versions I am planning on building an algorithm that incorporates techniques similar to Duolingo and other learning apps to better encode the brainwashing. 
Today I’m gonna clean things up a bit and get the audio manager working so next week I can figure out how best to implement the HIIT style rounds of alternating quiz/lewd stimulation. I may make a NSFW post over in askchapo to see if folks have better ideas than what I’m currently playing around with. I figured this post was clean enough that it didn’t need NSFW tagging, but if it does, just let me know, mods.
Previous NSFW post on the app for anyone curious:
@[email protected] thanks again for putting me on the radial menu path. For whatever reason I had my head stuck on the up/down/left/right method, this works out much better.
