     @pro@mu.zaitcev.nu pointers aren't even complicated and if you aren't using it properly then what the hell are you even doing, the people who get confused about them are literally room temperature iq

     I had to teach an AI programmer pointers during a project one time as one of the Sr Core Developers overseeing half a dozen projects at the same time. :/

     If you’re not using storage behind geospatial data structures you’re already dead.

     @pro@mu.zaitcev.nu just be glad you're not using msvc, worst most cryptic and nondescript errors in existence

     @shibao Some of it is getting used to errors. For example, this took a few hours to figure out (I'll post the answer in a reply):

     Octrees are OK for some things, but are more of old tech these days. I used to have a physics engine that used octrees for partition and varlet integration for simulation.

     Even planet level processing is done by warping space into quad trees more often than not now. Especially due to processing what used to be offline at runtime like AI nav meshes. I was speaking about simulation in my first post. It’s all about getting floating point to work by origin shifting, and keeping the processing for active zones fast.

     TL;DR yes you have to map memory by location due to limits of FP and size of the problem for simulation. It’s not just a problem for path tracing anymore.

     BTW games that have voxel layers overlaid the warped space map to 3d textures that are also warped. So they’re not actually neat little evenly distributed boxes at all.

     I hope you’re not serious. You’re better off doing a side project.
