It is either do the canvas or sit on the beach, winter camping with the kids, eating fresh mussels in butter and garlic

Sorry @grant@toast.ooo

Edit: sunset. Yes that is an active volcano in the middle

Everyone is welcome in the Synthwave X Chiptune team to collaborate on the LukHash Home Arcade template !

Attention everyone, make sure to set the coordinates of the template image to 0,0 when using Cotemplate. Multiple people already started drawing with offset because of this.

Did the server go down ?

I'm still confused if I should wait to have 6 mixels and place them in batches, or place whenever a new pixel is available, my gut feeling tells me one every 30 seconds is more efficient?

[-] JRaccoon@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 week ago

It doesn't matter whether you place 1 pixel every 30 seconds or 6 every 3 minutes. One thing to keep in mind tho is that the 30 second timer seems to reset every time you place a pixel. For example, if you're at 0 pixels, gain 1, wait 15 seconds, and then place it, you'll still have to wait another 30 seconds for the next pixel. Meaning you basically lost 15 seconds. So I think the most efficient strategy is to place all 6 pixels as soon as you gain the 6th one.

[-] grant@toast.ooo 4 points 1 week ago

this has been fixed, you no longer have to time your pixels out!

if you place pixels mid-countdown, it will still keep the 15s (or what it was at) until the next pixel

I think my confusion was that the cooldown would add 30s on top of the existing cooldown per pixel so i'd end up thinking i had to wait 180s for a 6th pixel, but now it shows 30s every time, thank you for the fix!

[-] inlandempire@jlai.lu 2 points 1 week ago

Oh okay makes sense, thank you!

Whenever I try to place a pixel it just errors out "invalid pixel location. Are you even on the canvas?"

[-] grant@toast.ooo 5 points 1 week ago

i've come with some great news! i've fixed this issue and it's been deployed

Thanks, sadly still doesn‘t work for Orion Browser on iPad

[-] grant@toast.ooo 2 points 1 week ago

interesting, what feature specifically isn't working? is it the same invalid pixel location, or is the site not functional?

also could you attach your iOS/iPadOS version and Orion version

[-] kaida@feddit.org 1 points 1 week ago

Yes it‘s the same ‚invalid pixel location, are you even on the canvas?‘. It‘s on iPadOS 26.5.2 and Orion Version 1.4.21 (1) (WebKit 8624.2.5.10.8)

[-] Wildone@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago
[-] kaida@feddit.org 1 points 1 week ago

I have the same problem (using Orion browser on iOS)
