  • The majority that defend homeschooling do so on pure ideological grounds. They accuse schools of indoctrinating kids, but they want to personally ensure their kids are indoctrinated the way they (the parents) deem correct. “Sex is evil! Women should submit to men! <Ethnicity> is pure evil! Never question me!” - these parents should NEVER homeschool their kids.

    There are very few situations where homeschooling would be better for the kid over traditional schooling, and those situations are usually remedied with the school getting its shit together and being at least decent.

    The school can’t always get better though and can even be harmful to kids, due to bad teachers, bad staff, bad classmates or general precarious conditions, especially if the kid has any sort of special need (autism, down’s syndrome, etc). Changing schools isn’t always an option, whether due to distance or cost of moving back and forth every day, and that’s usually when homeschooling should be done.







  • One sprite node for the naked character, another for each part of armor (helmet, chest, pants, for instance). If every armor sprite is equally positioned in its image, you can then load different files as needed - on an equipment change, call a load("res://armor2.png") for the Texture of the armor node. You’ll also need to keep the file path string saved somewhere, likely within the rest of the armor’s attributes

    While it may not be an immediate problem for you, keep in mind that each .png image the game keeps loaded will use some VRAM, according to its total size. For instance, each 1000x1000 png image will take ~4MB of VRAM. I recommend cropping as much unused vertical and horizontal space as feasible.
