So recently in my Built-in class extension's script I released a method that can tell if a number is prime or not. The code works (at least for most of the numbers I have tried) but it is slower than a snail moving through molasses with large numbers. Taking as long as three seconds to tell if this number: 9369319 is a prime. (which it is). I am using a brute division method to make these determinations. I am wondering if anyone has any ideas to make it run faster.

module Math def self.prime?(arg)    f = arg.to_i    if f < 263882790666230      i = 2    while i <= Math.sqrt(f).ceil       if f % (i) === 0 && f != (i)         return false       end       if i.even?       i += 1       else         i += 2       end      end      if i > Math.sqrt(f).ceil && f != 0 && f != 1        return true      end     else     puts "Error: Number must be below 263882790666230 to help prevent long processing times"     end   end endThoughts?

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
time for a new avatar :)
