Since I connected a router to my PC (in order to use a WLAN with my laptop), my desktop PC's download speed started to behave really weird. You see, I take the speed test at SpeedTest.net and this is what I get:

221670215.png


Fairly normal, I recently got my connection upgraded to 20MB. But, the thing is, my download speed with HTTP direct links is, almost always, capped at 250KBps, when I remember reaching 2MBps not so long go. Also, those downloads seem to randomly stop working. For example, yesterday I was trying to download Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul for Oblivion (~300MB), but I had to restart the download several times from several mirrors to be able to complete it. And don't get me started about "light" files, like ROMs...
And, on top of everything, when I first connected my laptop with my desktop, I transfered my sister's files (music, images, videos, saved games, etc.) from one to the other in about 30 minutes. Now, right now, I'm sending said OOO to my laptop and it's taking more than 80 minutes to complete the transfer.

Something isn't right with my connection, but I don't know what. As you could see, the results from the speed test are normal, but, in the practice, things aren't so normal...

Thanks in advance.

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar

    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Carrying a PC or phone is so old school!
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
