# Rust GameDev Newsletter 37: August 2022

The August newsletter is finally out, sorry for the delay. Forest was the releasing editor this time but he had trouble finishing the newsletter editing because of educational stuff, so I've volunteered to do it a few hours before another round of war bullshit with referendums and general mobilization began. It took me a couple of days to process the news, talk with friends who might need help, update my plans, and finally get myself together and return to regular tasks. This newsletter issue isn't quite polished but still contains a lot of cool stuff:

# IntelliJ Rust Changelog #179

I forgot to post about it but earlier this week we've released another ijrust update. Some highlights:

- Improved folded blocks rendering.
- Build scripts evaluation now uses the –keep-going Cargo option to build/execute as much as possible even if some build scripts or proc-macros are broken.
- redundant_semicolons inspection and fix.
- More function attribute completions
- Another bunch of significant performance improvements for name resolution and type inference.

# 3D Scene: Forest House by Lake

Playing around with Blender again: restored and updated a low-poly scene I've quickly put together a while ago.

# 3D Ferris Model by @RayMarch 🦀

Speaking of 3D models, have you already seen the awesome rigged model by @RayMarch? Here's the blend file - it's CC0 public domain licensed, so you're free to use it however you like.

# ICU4X 1.0 - New I18n Library from Unicode Consortium

A couple days ago the Unicode Consortium announced their new official library - ICU4X - it's written in Rust, with official C++ and JavaScript wrappers available. The design goals of ICU4X are:

- Small and modular code
- Pluggable locale data
- Availability and ease of use in multiple programming languages
- Written by internationalization experts to encourage best practices

Some of the things the library allows you to do: formatting dates (everyone does dates differently!), formatting numbers (these too! even within the same numbering system!), sorting or line breaking text, figuring out the plural form to use (some languages have 5!), <...>

The library features interesting zero-copy deserialization techniques that Manish has described in a series of blog posts:

- "Not a Yoking Matter (Zero-Copy #1)"
- "Zero-Copy All the Things! (Zero-Copy #2)"
- "So Zero It's ... Negative? (Zero-Copy #3)"

# Making Turn-Based Multiplayer Game in Rust

Herluf published a beginner friendly 3 part tutorial series about making turn-based multiplayer games using rust. It covers what games can be considered "turn-based", how to write a simple but neat game server using `renet`, and finally how to tie it all together with a client app made with `Bevy`:

- #1 "What's a turn-based game anyway?"
- #2 "Game logic and server"
- #3 "Writing a client using Bevy"

# 0x20

🎂 Turning 32 today and, welp, that was the most fucked up year so far - all the plans and hopes went *poof*. Just trying to hold on and not lose the remains of my faith in humanity.

# IntelliJ Rust Changelog #180

Some highlights:

- Complete custom derive proc-macros and automatically add imports for out-of-scope ones.
- Automatically import unresolved items after pasting Rust code into the editor.
- 2022.3 EAPs platforms are now supported while 2022.1 are dropped.
