17:04:11 raptor hi Heyub
17:04:21 raptor it's a very minor release - but it'll let people create levels again  :)

22:15:11 raptor hi
22:15:23 raptor Watusimoto: so i get that crash, but i have no clue as to where it's coming from
22:16:02 raptor maybe i shoudl pipe it through valgrind?
22:17:09 Watusimoto you could, but I'm torn about whether we should worry about it now
22:17:27 raptor how come?
22:17:45 Watusimoto on the one hand, I am still doing a lot of work on the lua code; on the other, that part of the code is pretty much the way I think it will stay
22:18:03 raptor ok
22:18:19 raptor ok
22:18:41 Watusimoto so it is possible it will get fixed accidentally; it is also quite possible it won't be
22:18:45 raptor i'd say for yo not to worry about it, and we can test it again after Lua work is more or less completed
22:18:52 Watusimoto :-)
22:18:57 Watusimoto but it is worrying
22:19:18 Watusimoto becuase there is a possibility that it points to some fundamental error we have in the lua stuff
22:19:32 raptor then valgrind it is!
22:19:36 Watusimoto just build BF without EditorObjects
22:19:44 raptor and it runs?
22:19:48 Watusimoto but will it run?
22:19:56 Watusimoto it should run
22:20:06 raptor and will the editor work?
22:20:20 Watusimoto works fine, until you drag an object in the editor
22:20:45 raptor yeah but who needs to do thAt...
22:36:52 raptor well here is valgrind:  http://sam686.maxhushahn.com/upload/valgrind.out.zip
22:37:01 raptor i didn't get the game to crash, but it may still be useful
22:56:09 raptor mabye it's the combo of Lunar and LuaW
22:57:09 raptor the robot error that is thrown before a bot is deleted is:  Robot:getFiringSolution() expected numeric arg at position 1
22:57:42 raptor following that back shows a problem on the *L that is used by LuaRobot (with Lunar)
23:03:00 raptor i'd say that if you are planning to move completely to LuaW, let's do that first, then come back to this error
23:03:13 Watusimoto bitten, once again, by having functions not declared virtual not be overridden in child classes
23:03:32 raptor she bites!
23:03:52 Watusimoto  Robot:getFiringSolution() -- this problem doesn't worry me yet -- there may well be an innocent explanation
23:04:19 raptor yeah, but it's the only consistent thing i've got to go on
23:04:35 Watusimoto yes, ok, to luaw it is.  This editorObject refactor is related to getting rid of lunar
23:04:44 raptor oh good
23:04:54 Watusimoto it may be that the error puts things into a bad state
23:05:06 raptor yes
23:05:36 Watusimoto luaw has an inheritance model, and it was very tricky to apply when we had editor objects and the desire to make everything more scriptable (in the editor and in the game)
23:05:41 Watusimoto many common methods there
23:05:58 Watusimoto well... it was just getting too messy
23:06:37 Watusimoto seems to work
23:08:32 raptor yay
23:09:38 raptor ok, i'm heading home - good night if i don't see you later!
23:09:44 Watusimoto bye
23:09:50 raptor Quit ()
