No, band-aid code is a real problem that some coders have. [quote="DJ Coco"] 36) I managed to fix the bug in my code - I don't know how though :) 37) The bug is back ): Please take a look at my code that consists to 75% of hard-coded numbers[/quote] Instead of fixing the root of the problem, they just try to add "patches"- code that seems to fix the problem despite the coder not knowing why the bugs occurs. The patch may be as simple as adding code just to prevent a visual bug at the highest level of the code. [i]The bug s still present[/i], though, now a bit tougher to find and thus fix. It gets worse when the bug propagates to other code. You'll have to add more and more band-aid code- deteriorating the code base. However, if you fixed the core of the problem, you can remove all the band-aids and of course have no worries of future bugs stemming of from it, again, because it's been fixed appropriately.

42. Hello Guys! I'm Mors, A Professional Indie Game Programmer. I Made A Game Called Stickman Adventures 3 And Starting A Kickstarter. But I Need To Add Multiplayer To My Game. My Code: *shows a bag of poop* Please Say Good Things And Don't Give Criticism! Thanks!

43. Ignore all criticism. After all, you can learn on your own, right. And all people who criticise your games are just bullies.

44. "Unknown variable xy" What am I doing wrong??

45) Always use English expressions. "if not a = b" is so much nicer than "if a != b". 46) Use as many global variables as possible! It is much more efficient than attaching all persistent variables to one persistent object.

47. I have a problem: it doesn't work! *fills page with horribly formatted code* 48. Using several variables instead of an array. 49. [i]Just in case[/i] my RAM flips out one in a billionth chance, I'll put in all of these unnecessary conditions in my if statements. 50. Adding extra unnecessary padding to collision detection [i]just in case[/i] it goes too fast.

51) = is the same as ==, right?

52. Making your own game takes a lot of unnecessary work. Just edit someone else's engine by changing one or two levels and you're good to go.

53) My favorite loop is an if loop

54) my codes are a mess, sorry I have to cancell my game

[quote="[url=http://phpbb.mfgg.net/viewtopic.php?p=468740#p468740]Hypernova[/url]"]54) my codes are a mess, sorry I have to cancell my game[/quote] Me on all my games. 55. Who cares about simplified code? if (something); else { /* something */ } works.

56) HELLO My Name Is Recent314 And I Made A New Engine Featuring Mario, Luigi, WAAAHLuigi and Toad!!! And Its Bloated With Like 5972556TB Of Resorces IDK I Am Not A Pro Coder (shrugger emoji) Plz Like And Subscribe

57) Above all, ALWAYS ask for criticism. You don't actually need to listen to what anyone says, though, since saying "I am open for criticism" is just one of those things that magically makes your project 20x better.

58) Unit testing? What's that?

59) Use a fat long script and shorten it later when you feel less lazy

60) Comments? WHAT'RE THOOOSE?

61. Profiling my code? I already have a profile on this website.

62) Add a new member to your team. 63) have em clean up yer code an' dun forget em nasty buggers too

64. Not enough RAM? Just use the hard drive. 65. I don't need version control because I only have one version. 66. I hate Java; it's too verbose! Actually, I'm just scared of compiler errors. 67. Everything is so verbose! Readable keywords and identifiers such as "function" are too verbose. Better change that to "fn". I actually just type slow, and my monitor is a potato. 68. Can I index an array through floating point numbers? 69. Just in case integers turn into strings, I'll make an Integer interface. 70. Computers are very slow, so I have to use bit-shifts for multiplication and division. 71. On top of the Integer interface, it'll be constructed through an IntegerBuilderFactoryFactory. 72. Why is my game running so slow? Integer looks fine. Maybe I didn't use enough bit-shifts.

73. Ppppfff surface_free? I don't have to use that, my surface is pretty small. *2 hours later* WHY IS MY GAME SO SLOW?!
