Alllo

was thinking this while starting a new gen, erasing the starter stuff, and hitting save.

Why do new generators start public?

it's a nothing gen with nothing on it yet. Shouldn't it start private and then, when I'm ready for it to be public I toggle that setting? or is generator page filled with: the ideal? What if, instead, it contained only what people INTENTIONALLY made public?

Im not saying 'weed out nonfamous people'. I'm asking whether new gens starting public is really what's best. I also don't even strongly have this stance since it's just an idea I had today so don't viciously attack me like if I'm tearing apart your soul. I'd think a newcommer, when ready for people to come to their gen, would have no problem toggling to public. Discussion welcome.

also i already know this is too big a change to actually happen. curious any comments tho

The coding ai is making comment channels using underscores. it's got the lowercase and numbers part correct, but I think it's thinking underscore = hyphen. just mentioning in case you want to specify '(no underscores)' or something wherever it's getting it's information. :)

Now having really done alot of ai codings recently...

When i tried to make a program where the ai created 3D models, the code assist ai could create the program for the normal ai to use flawlessly BUT the normal Perchance ai that was supposed to feed data in to it is not smart enough to format it's responses perfectly enough for it to work. So are these two different Ai? the code assist ai and the normal ai text plugin ai? Also my guess is this is one of the good ideas that doesn't work because ai text is still in need of update.

Another big noticing is that, on phone, it doesn't make sense to stay on the page waiting for ai code assist to generate since it can be 10+ minutes. So I often end up with maybe 3 projects on different tabs either typing for the ai or waiting for it to think. So, tho I've downloaded a firefox addon to reduce risk, tabs still occasionally refresh, which is terrible. The probably 10 minute wait for the ai thinking is gone, the input i had asked the ai is gone (maybe remember last input if page reload?), and only if the last change the ai had made had been something worth saving do i not need to then go in to backups and do all that fileopening removefirstline copy then paste to get the current project back online. And often it feels weird to instantly save something the ai just did without really checking it out first. So anyway, there is indeed some suffering from some annoyance factors in a full workflow for using the ai code assist.

main thing number 3: I remember Perchance saying a Multiplayer Plugin is coming soon. Even before ai text update if I remember correctly. Now having built a bunch of stuff, I've slowed down on the games; and I realize it's because of no ability to add multiplayer functionality. So I agree with Perchance a Multiplayer Plugin now feels about as high priority as updating ai text to me; it basically means the difference between enthusiastic game makers like myself making games or not yet. I also see huge potential in that, when multiplayer ai assistcreated games begin plooping out, it will be like a new era of awesomeness.

Anyway, thus thoughts. enjoy!

When backup is made, it should detect if the Perchance side or HTML side is entirely empty and, if so, not create that noncode intro line.

i say this getting in to teh ai code assist and having blank perchance sides frequently cuz teh ai apparently avoids using it... and saving often breaking so i have to go back to previous backups. Would be nicer being able to just select all instead of deal with needless first line that is irrelevant in this situation. thus it should detect if it's irrelavent.

loving playing with teh ai code generation nao; is superfun.

the 'new' button disappeared tho

Look at how users of perchance had been decreasing and then ai art update and whoosh, dovnward trend goes upward just like that.

no other clues atm beside that it happens maybe 1% to 2% of generations and if i recreate it exactly including same seed the recreations are fine and nonblack

I, along with others, found and used Glitch to get in to back end server stuff because of Perchance tutorials that used Glitch. Well Glitch is going down on the 8th and that includes assets you may have on it (tho it says code you may have on it will be there until 2025). So download your stuff off it if you want to keep it!

and i also suggest that the perchance tutorials ("diy perchance api" was one i think) pointing to glitch be switched to point elsewhere.

The first few days like 90% of people I was generating were the same hideous blockyjawed squareface supermodel woman. Now she is extremely rare, most people no longer have blockyjaw squareface, and, instead, what feels like it would have been a Blockyjawsquareface comes out more like this pic. While I HAVE tuned my prompt slightly since then, the difference feels beyond that. So am I hallucinating? or are people already getting better?

I'm trying to make my current gen in a duplicationfriendly format so ppl can just edit the Starter lists on the left to edit the styles the gen starts with. BUT ITS HARD. I did the accessing the "Starters" list thru root and it definitely has the items as seen below when it runs. but joinitems doesn't work on the object root gives and nor does it have a length or any way to iterate thru the entries to build an object out of the list entries. How do I get all the entries from the twotiered 'Starters' list in to javascript so i can access the info it contains?
