00:48:59Watusimotovonorix is a lameo
00:49:41Watusimotofordcars only rated us an 8
00:49:54Watusimoto2nd lowest rating
00:51:16kaenlol it wants me to justify a 10 point rating
00:51:38Watusimotothe game justifies itself!
00:52:21kaenhah!
00:52:27kaenit told me a review was required
00:52:31kaenbut then let me post without one
00:52:39kaensilly web developers.

00:53:21ChanServ sets mode +o raptor
00:54:36Watusimotowell... my little fix to make escape properly exit the chat menu (with the new fix for chatting while placing engineered items) has spiraled so out of control it is ridiculous
00:54:59raptorwe got a 1 star on desura!
00:55:06kaenugh. I hate it when that happens
00:55:11kaenraptor, brazillians
00:55:24Watusimotois that like one star out of 5, or like a gold star from Mrs. Keef in 1st grade?
00:55:38raptor10%
00:55:44Watusimotoeverything is broken
00:56:00raptor?
00:56:14Watusimotoon my copy of bf

00:56:45raptorversion control woes?
00:57:13Watusimotono
00:57:18raptorok good
00:57:20Watusimotorefactor woes
00:57:38raptori looked at the chat-engineer problem... it was too complicated for me to do at midnight..
00:57:40Watusimoto2AM woes
00:58:05Watusimotoit all (used to) work, except for this one escape issue
00:58:10Watusimotonow... who knows

01:03:46Watusimototweet the flashmob!
01:03:48bobdaduckrofl
01:06:09Watusimotoraptor: we finished the regexp crossword tonight. ian was going so fast I couldn't keep up
01:06:35Watusimotoas he was falling asleep he asked me about other character classes (other than \s \w and \d)
01:06:43WatusimotoI kid you not
01:06:47bobdaduckAdorable
01:06:50raptorhaha wow
01:07:03raptorhe's what 12?
01:07:07Watusimoto10
01:07:09raptor!
01:07:17WatusimotoHalf proud, half concerned
01:07:24WatusimotoI want grandkids, afterall
01:07:29raptorhahaha
01:07:36bobdaducklol
01:08:30Watusimotothe older one was just like "mom, would you tell dad I'm trying to sleep?"
01:09:28raptoroh, well it sounds like you'll get grandkids from one vector...
01:11:17raptorkaen: how far did you get with hacking together a Linux desura thingamajig?
01:11:31raptorbecause, I think I may have time tonight to do a hack job..
01:12:20kaenI haven't touched it
01:12:35kaenand I'm about to begin the pack-up-everything-I-own process
01:12:48kaenso I likely won't have time to help until after the weekend :/
01:13:11raptoroh ok
01:13:13raptorthanks
01:13:19kaenuh
01:13:21kaenyou're welcome
01:13:22raptorthen maybe it'll be done when you get back!
01:14:02kaenalong with everything else, I trust!
01:14:05Watusimotokaen: moving or prison
01:14:11kaenhehe
01:14:13kaenmoving
01:14:19Watusimotogood!
01:14:33kaenthat would be a short stay in prison...
01:14:57Watusimotobetter than a long stay, though
01:15:04kaencertainly
01:19:22raptorany more movie ideas?
01:20:17raptor(and kaen, don't worry, my wife isn't that 'normal'... she did go see LOTR:Return of the King like 11 times in the theatres)
01:21:10kaenyou've seen benjamin button, right?
01:21:15raptoryes
01:21:18raptoran odd one
01:21:29raptorfelt like forrest gump
01:21:37kaenthat's a good analogy.
01:22:31raptorsomeone suggested 'the day the earth stood still'; what do you think?
01:26:25Watusimotolooking for movies?
01:26:42raptoryes
01:26:57Watusimotoseen safety not guranteed?
01:27:16raptornope
01:27:18WatusimotoI liked that one
01:27:32raptorthere is a lot that we haven't seen, but modern stuff has recently been disappointing
01:27:39raptorso we've turned our eyes backwards
01:27:58raptorsomeone suggested citizen kane, which we just finished - it was ok
01:27:59Watusimotoglengary glenross was quite good, if you're looking for something older
01:28:07Watusimotonot that old
01:28:11Watusimotoseen moon?
01:28:25Watusimotoseen exit through the gift shop?
01:28:30raptornope
01:28:36Watusimotomoon is good sci fi
01:28:42raptor'moon' ?
01:28:47Watusimotoyes
01:29:42WatusimotoI watched this earlier tonight (it's only 10 mins) but rather liked it
01:29:43Watusimotohttp://www.shortoftheweek.com/2012/09/12/everything-is-incredible/
01:30:14Watusimotoexit through the gift shop is a documentary about banksy
01:30:20Watusimotothe british street artist
01:30:35Watusimotobut maybe it's not about him or a documentary
01:30:40WatusimotoI'm really not sure
01:30:53Watusimotobut I have thought about it a lot since I saw it
01:30:57Watusimotoalso... monsters
01:31:03Watusimotothat was quite good. another sci fi
01:31:14raptor is writing these down
01:31:33Watusimotosaw django unchained a few weeks ago
01:31:55Watusimotogood if you like great characters, lots of blood, and an overwraught ending
01:32:51Watusimotoalso other earth (I think) sci fi about an identical copy of earch
01:32:53Watusimotoearth
01:33:00Watusimotosounds stupid, but was really good
01:33:15bobdaduckFeature request: Search by map creater.
01:33:17raptor'another earth' ?
01:33:30raptormade in 2011?
01:33:49PlatskiesFeature request: Remove lag from US servers :(
01:33:49raptorbobdaduck: that would be part of our mythical level database!
01:33:50Watusimotohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Another_Earth
01:33:52bobdaduckI like tron, inception, source code, and mirrormask.
01:33:57Watusimotoshort on the sci, but still good
01:34:18bobdaduckand kaen: I think I just crashed kaen test by pilferring all its maps.
01:34:27WatusimotoPlatskies: only solution is a server in oz
01:34:43Watusimotowhich we did have for a while
01:34:55PlatskiesI found a 70-80 ping server called LittleMonkey
01:35:00kaenbobdaduck, I've prepared for that likelihood :)
01:35:03WatusimotoPlatskies: for what it;s worth, I suffer the same problem 180-200 ping is typical
01:35:04kaenthe servers restart themselves
01:35:11raptor'oz' - is that an official term?
01:35:20PlatskiesWatusimoto: Yeah I know
01:35:21Watusimotodefine official
01:35:22kaens/likelihood/eventuality/
01:35:27bobdaduckAlso raptor: There's a ton of tutorial maps people have made on kaen test (if its up) and some of them look like they're a lot better than skybax's.
01:35:32bobdaduckDrspacebar made a tutorial.
01:35:36raptorreally??
01:35:40kaenI saw that one
01:35:43kaenit's pretty thorough
01:35:49raptorbecause I don't mind doing a different one
01:35:57raptorif you guys think it's good
01:36:04kaenyep, servers auto-restarted :)
01:36:11kaengood thinking, kaen!
01:36:14kaenthanks, kaen!
01:36:16bobdaduckGood thinking kaen!
01:36:18Platskiescan I convince someone to join LittleMonkey? :^
01:36:21bobdaducklol
01:36:32raptorgood thinking kaen! (and can I have your script?)
01:36:51Watusimotobtw, the antoher earth page I linked to has lots of spoilers
01:37:10raptorwe need runtime stack traces on crash..
01:37:41kaenit's super simple, but: http://pastie.org/6319852
01:37:56kaenyou need the disown %1 after each run_server so that it doesn't terminate when you log out
01:38:33raptori've used 'disown' but not the %1 before..
01:38:41kaen%1 just means the last job
01:38:49raptoroh duh
01:38:51raptorok
01:38:59raptorand.. while true?
01:39:00kaenit might be unnecessary
01:39:05kaenwell, like I said
01:39:09kaenreally quick hack
01:39:22kaenI found out the server was crashing right before I left for work
01:39:27raptori mean, that's how i'd do it, but it blocks?
01:39:41kaenit forks each run_server
01:39:44kaenwith &
01:39:52kaenmakes sure you have the & at the end
01:40:11kaenand yeah, the script is synchronous
01:40:18kaener, the while loop
01:40:29Watusimotook, 2:40.... good night!
01:40:37kaennight!
01:40:56raptornight!
01:41:04raptorok, good idea kaen
01:41:05PlatskiesSee ya!
01:41:05raptorbut
01:41:09raptorthe while loop
01:41:11kaenoh god
01:41:18raptor?
01:41:19kaenjust realized my file paths are goofy
01:41:29kaennot that it's an issue for you
01:41:32raptorok
01:41:34raptorso
01:41:42kaenbut in general I like to distribute things other people can just use.
01:41:51raptorjust to be clear - the while loop will block when the binary is run, until it exits, correct?
01:42:06kaenyes
01:42:11raptorok ko
01:42:29raptorthanks, will adapt for the tutorial server and 'ghost'
01:42:40kaenoh, do you run ghost?
01:42:57raptori run both from the master, yes
01:43:03kaenI didn't know that
01:43:39raptorbobdaduck convinced me there was a need for a server with semi-decent maps for more competitive play
01:43:56bobdaduckSam test was all there was....
01:43:57bobdaduckxD
01:44:03raptorso I got phantomime's collection and put it up
01:44:10raptorso far feedback hasn't been too horrible...
01:44:18kaenI love the maps
01:44:29kaenthe ones I've seen anyway
01:44:35kaenwhich is only the 1v1s
01:44:48raptori like that yin-yang ctf map
01:44:52kaenme too
01:45:10kaenI like small simple maps like that
01:45:24kaenreminds me of haiku
01:46:02raptorthe OS?
01:46:07raptoroh, the poems
01:46:11bobdaducklol
01:46:42Watusimoto Quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
01:47:48bobdaduckAlso
01:47:54bobdaduckI have a bunch of new novelty maps.
01:48:03bobdaduckHosting if anyone wants to see all my brilliant finds.
01:51:36amgine1234567890 has joined
01:51:47amgine1234567890hi there wanted to check up if you need me to do the testing.....
01:52:16amgine1234567890sorry im not on as often my grandpa has severe altimherz and my grandma has bad arthiritis so i stey a couole days a week to help them.
02:06:09raptoramgine1234567890: that is a much more worthy cause than testing for bitfiighter - no forgiveness is necessary :)
02:11:47raptorok, tutorial and ghost are now kaen-looped for greatness!
02:14:20bobdaduckEveryone
02:14:22bobdaduckshould come to my server
02:14:25bobdaducklike, right now

03:25:17bobdaduckKaen:
03:25:37raptorwatusimoto:
03:25:42raptorsam686:
03:25:51raptorwhat are we doing?
03:27:48Lamp89Bitfighter.ini got reset.
03:27:48Lamp89I was playing a game earlier today with bobdaduck testing a dungeon. Then my computer crashed. It restarted and Resume (built in Mac OS feature) had stuff back where it was. Bitfighter opened and i joined the game. Other apps opened and made Bitfigther disappear from fullscreen. I sent the crash report and went back to Bitfighter. Then Bitfighter froze. i restarted Bitfighter and noticed everything back to defaults.
03:28:16raptormakes sense
03:28:23Lamp89just because I say raptor: and is typing doesnt mean you think i'm just joking. -_-
03:28:35raptorif you crash when a file is open, you can lose that file
03:28:39Lamp89so what i wnat to know is
03:28:45Lamp89oh that
03:28:51Lamp89so...
03:28:54Lamp89bitfighter crashed?
03:28:56Lamp89right?
03:29:08raptorwait, you have a crash report?
03:29:21Lamp89well it didnt crash, it froze and i didn't wait long, so i force-quit it
03:29:26raptorahh
03:29:29Lamp89i have a computer crash report
03:29:34Lamp89but not a bitfighter crash report
03:29:38raptorah ok
03:29:42Lamp89not the one form the incident i mentioned
03:30:12Lamp89wait i started hosting today and you joined and left like 3 times...
03:30:26Lamp89did it show up as Bitfighter Host?
03:30:26Lamp89i think it did
03:30:30raptorah yes
03:30:32raptorit did
03:30:43Lamp89dang i have to add the server info back
03:30:45raptorhmmm... i wonder
03:30:59raptorkaen: would you have ideas about crash resiliency with the INI?
03:31:18Lamp89no admin pass... humph
03:31:27Lamp89gotta shut it down like i usually do
03:31:41Lamp89by closing the window >:}
03:32:10Lamp89okay info was put back
03:32:21Lamp89now it's back up
03:32:34Lamp89you can configure your server info just by going to the host game page
03:32:41Lamp89then at terminal, enter the command:
03:32:46Lamp89 /Applications/Bitfighter.app/Contents/MacOS/Bitfighter -dedicated
03:32:51Lamp89if that's where the app is

03:36:49Lamp89no it didn't work :?
03:36:56Lamp89 is confused
03:37:25Lamp89commands don't work when using the paste dialog. how did it bypass it i wonder?
03:38:40Lamp89<raptor> that looks awfully like a driveby spamming
03:38:42Lamp89it was not
03:38:49Lamp89i had to go really quick...
03:38:57raptorheh, ok :)
03:39:51Lamp89raptor do you know anytrhing about IRC?
03:39:59Lamp89beacuse here's something odd...

03:40:04Lamp89[3:36:10] <-- Lamp89 Quit (Changing host)
03:40:04Lamp89[3:36:10] --> Lamp89 has joined

03:40:30Lamp89at first my cloak didn't work
03:40:42Lamp89and it said Quit (Changing host)
03:40:51Lamp89what does changing host mean?
03:41:13raptorthat means you're connecting to the channel before authenticating
03:41:13Lamp89raptor:

16:35:30bobdaduckgratz?
16:35:31raptorgo to bed!
16:35:43kaenand sleep through dinner?!
16:35:48kaenno way.
16:44:56raptori will refrain from asking you technical questions, then
16:46:03kaenyes, the results could be catastrophic
16:47:22kaenregarding INI resiliency, all I know about it is that I accidentally forkbombed myself when writing that restart script once
16:47:29kaenand found every ini file had been reset to default.
16:47:39raptorhmm...
17:00:24raptorok, i think i got all the ubutnu libraries...

18:57:27raptorand I know why it crashes..
18:57:31raptoryeah, Worm
18:57:40raptorserver comes back though, right?
18:58:02bobdaduckRight
18:59:59bobdaduckWhy does worm crash things?
19:00:10raptorwe're not quite sure...
19:00:16raptori should take a closer look...
19:09:22raptorbobdaduck: please tell me of this better tutorial level?
19:13:15bobdaduckUh
20:11:27Watusimoto has joined
20:30:23raptorok Watusimoto, Linux Desura is done... it was a little more work than I wanted to do, but hopefully there won't be much more...
20:33:21Watusimotohi
20:33:30Watusimotowhat did you do?
20:33:37Watusimotoand what will we have to do in the future?
20:34:18Watusimotoand... down to one compile error!!!!!

20:36:42ChanServ sets mode +o raptor
20:37:27raptorWatusimoto: I painstakingly downloaded all required libraries from Ubuntu 10.04LTS
20:37:34Watusimotouh oh
20:37:35raptor64 and 32 bit
20:37:50Watusimotojust for the missing 2 or for all of them
20:38:01Watusimotoor, to be more clear, how many?
20:38:06raptorand created a wrapper script that would launch either a 32 or 64 bit version of the bitfighter binary and load the respective libs
20:38:40raptor12 ish
20:38:45Watusimotowow
20:38:54Nothing_Much Quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
20:39:04Watusimotowill this script need to be maintained in the future?
20:39:14Watusimotoor is it (mostly) set up, and we can forget it?
20:39:18raptormostly set up
20:39:36WatusimotoI guess until we change libs
20:40:12raptorabout 6.7MB of various libs
20:40:33raptorwell, you can take a look at the package on the desura page: http://www.desura.com/games/publish/bitfighter/execute
20:40:43raptorif you do 'view' you'll see what I mean
20:40:47Watusimotook
20:41:00raptori made a few assumptions
20:41:11raptorlike that the user would have X11 installed, and opengl
20:41:36raptoroh and ALSA
20:41:40Watusimotowell.... congratulations
20:41:45raptorand pthreads
20:41:47Watusimotolooks like closer to 30 libs
20:41:57raptoroh, that's because softlinks
20:41:59Watusimotowell, 2 copies of each
20:42:04raptoroh yeah
20:42:06raptorthat's right
20:42:07Watusimotoah, I see
20:42:09raptorabout 30ish, then
20:42:31Watusimotowell, thanks for doing that
20:42:36raptori already tested on my machine, and it has music!
20:42:41WatusimotoI had just planned on not doing it
20:42:42raptorand screenshots work...
20:42:46Watusimotoas we had discussed
20:42:48Watusimotoexcellent!
20:42:51raptorheh, me too
20:43:09Watusimotoso moving forward, how easy will it be to build the new linux desura package?
20:43:33raptornot super-easy...
20:43:52raptori have to compile the game for ubuntu 10.04 LTS, which the OBS can actually do for me
20:44:06Watusimotocan we roll it into the cmake script somehow?
20:44:12Watusimotooh, maybe not then
20:44:22raptori have a script written that auto extracts and sets up the binaries and resources into a folder
20:44:52raptorcmake can probably do it, for one architecture
20:45:01raptorbut we want both in the package...
20:47:29raptorfor hating engineer bobdaduck, you sure know how to make a *really* good engineer level with 'feudalism'
20:48:22bobdaduckI would delete feudalism straight out if it we removed engineer
20:48:41raptorthat was actually a really fun game...
20:48:49raptorloads of strategy
20:48:54bobdaduckBut we've discussed the principle in the forums: you can't make a good dungeon unless you hate dungeons
20:49:03raptorhaha
20:49:04bobdaduckSame applies to engineer I think
20:50:48WatusimotoI found a bug with the python notifier that i have no idea how to fix
20:51:05raptorgreat!
20:51:29Watusimotobut it seems that when I suspend the computer, then reactivate it, the thing stops fetching new results
20:51:49raptorhuh
20:52:03raptorso it spawns a different process to fetch stuff
20:52:10Watusimotoit is possible that something just goes wrong with a http request, which locks everything, so I am hoping we just need better error handling... but I'm not sure
20:52:18raptordoes that process still exist after unhibernating?
20:52:41raptorand are you talking about windows?
20:52:43Watusimotolet me check -- the icon is still in my system tray, and it still displays the results of pre-hiberantion
20:52:44Watusimotoyes
20:53:00Watusimotoso it's still alive in some sense
20:53:18raptorwell, that's the GUI thread
20:53:22bobdaduckSo I'm trying to fix my levelgen
20:53:27raptorthe fetching thread is different
20:53:53bobdaduckits giving me "expected ) near =" type erros
20:54:24raptoris this the same problem that kaen and Watusimoto were diagnosing yesterday
20:54:26raptor?
20:54:37bobdaduckProbably?
20:54:46bobdaduckThe one that breaks resource spawns in feudalism
20:55:21Watusimotoraptor: oddly, I can't find the processin my process list... yet it must be running to present me the stale results
20:55:32raptornot necessarily
20:55:39raptorthe thread fetchs, then updates the GUI thread
20:56:00bobdaduckAnyway, I need it to not try to remove the testitem if the testitem isn't there.
20:56:16raptoruse a..
20:56:20raptorumm
20:56:28Watusimotook, well we don;t need to fix it tonight -- it was more an observation we (or at least I) need to follow up on before release.
20:56:34raptorok, where is the script? and I'll show you how to fix..
20:56:46Watusimotoitem = findItem(5_
20:56:52Watusimotoif item == nil then return end
20:56:55Watusimotosomething like that
20:57:47bobdaduckI already have that
20:57:50bobdaduckits giving errors
20:58:03bobdaduck) expected near =

21:00:13raptorand what is the complete error?

21:01:17raptorah
21:01:20raptoruse ~=
21:01:23raptornot !=
21:01:34raptorLua is special that way...
21:01:36kaenlua is such a broken language...
21:01:45raptorkaen!
21:01:53raptoris CTF really broken on your servers?
21:01:56kaenD:
21:02:03kaenIt wasn't last I checked
21:02:13kaenI've played CTF on it before.
21:02:25raptorthen what was wrong on that one map?
21:02:36raptoror were we on bobdaduck's server that time?
21:02:40kaenbob's
21:02:46raptorah ok
21:02:48kaenthe only time I ever saw it
21:03:18kaenkind of depressing that everything I own fits in the trunk of my crown vic :<
21:03:25kaenbut convenient!
21:05:38bobdaduckarg, lua.
21:05:46bobdaduckIt should be more like piet!
21:06:31kaenit should be more like other ECMAscripten
21:06:31Watusimotokaen: travel light!
21:07:20bobdaduckAlright, broken levelgen fixed.
21:07:24kaenit should organize itself into the needed logical constructs based on my synaptic impulses!
21:07:29WatusimotoWhen I went to fosdem, I carried only a toothbrush in my jacket pocket (with toothpaste pre-applied) and a book that fit in another pocket. And a pencil.
21:07:34kaennow *that* would be a scripting language.
21:07:43kaenhehe
21:07:51kaenpre-applied toothpaste... interesting
21:07:59bobdaducklol
21:08:07kaenoh, like those mini brushes with the drops within the bristles?
21:08:12kaenthose things are super convenient

21:09:07bobdaducknice
21:09:12bobdaduckSonic CD is a good one
21:09:15SolumnMushroomAnd it is in HD
21:09:49SolumnMushroomAnd from the reviews, the Majin message is still there
21:10:13bobdaduckOkay kaen
21:10:20bobdaduckA couple level updates for your server.
21:10:27bobdaduckShould I send now or are you too busy?
21:10:30kaenI need to make you an interface for it bobdaduck
21:10:33kaenno, now is fine

21:12:12SolumnMushroomI'm waiting on a few downloads
21:12:43SolumnMushroomSiri on my iPod, and the Sonic CD ROM from Firefox
21:15:33SolumnMushroomI want to see the code behind an awesome game and maybe find the creepy images
21:19:36SolumnMushroomROM is done. Still waiting on Siri...
21:23:03SolumnMushroomHmm... Very interesting
21:23:17SolumnMushroomMost of the files are .mmd
21:24:39bobdaduckOkay
21:25:05bobdaduckCould someone direct me to the file that contains objects in a level, specifically neutral ships?
21:25:21kaenmost of those get their own file
21:25:27kaenbut a lot are in moveobject.cpp
21:25:39kaenoh
21:25:42kaenyou want ship.cpp
21:25:43kaen:P
21:26:14kaenmust... refrain... from answering technical questions...
21:26:17kaenpoorly...
21:26:45raptorgot freeorion packaged for openSUSE! yay
21:27:00raptorbobdaduck: distraction curve
21:27:30bobdaduckI mean
21:27:33bobdaduckin the source code
21:27:36raptorsource code?
21:27:50bobdaduckWhere does it read stuff from the .level file and put it into the game?
21:27:56kaenoooh
21:28:12raptorhttp://bitfighter.org/~raptor/doxygen/current/class_zap_1_1_move_object.html
21:28:17raptorok
21:28:29bobdaduckOkay nevermind
21:28:45bobdaduckTo make a ship in a level, the code is Ship 0 x y
21:28:46raptorthe parent object is BfObject
21:28:50bobdaduckWhat is the first 0 for?
21:28:56raptorteam?
21:29:05Watusimototeam!
21:33:28bobdaduckOkay
21:33:45bobdaduckI can set that number to whatever I want and it makes no difference
21:35:44raptorfor Ship?
21:37:28raptorWe should totally fix up 'Space Cruisers' for a BBB...
21:37:54bobdaduckYeah
21:38:19bobdaduckShip -1000000 x y is the same as ship 0 x y or ship 2 x y
21:38:36raptoris in a level with 1 team?
21:38:52raptorso
21:39:28raptorbecause Ship is a phantom-ish object iit probably doesn't set the team correctly in the code
21:40:17bobdaduckWith lots of teams still the same
21:40:38raptorwell, it probably just discards the team altogether
21:41:30raptorlook at the 'processArguments' methods in any game object
21:42:00bobdaduckokay

21:55:12raptorwhat?
21:55:32raptorthat's... odd
21:56:43bobdaduckrofl
21:56:48bobdaduckI can spawn seekers via lua
21:57:05raptorDONT DO IT

22:10:40WatusimotoNothing_Much: raptor got a linux build of bitfighter into desura... just waiting for approval
22:11:56bobdaduckOkay
22:12:03bobdaducknow the seekers are spawning with no momentum...
22:14:39bobdaduck Quit (Quit: Page closed)
22:18:26Watusimotobitfighter compiles!!!! first time in a week!!!!
22:18:36raptor wonders what Watusimoto is up to...
22:18:51Watusimotofixing the escape key issue I mentioned last night
22:19:03raptori bet that required some crazy refactoring..
22:19:21WatusimotoI could have used a quick hack instead of this fix
22:19:31raptori was going to suggest we skip the chat during engineer bug for 018a..
22:19:50Watusimotocompiles, but doesn;t work very well
22:20:11Watusimotowell, it's (was) 95% done
22:25:20raptorwhat projects am I working on again?
22:25:41raptori've sort of taken a coding break after the Lua nonsense..
22:25:57raptoroh, i need to get Fedora/Ubuntu builds up in the OBS
22:26:30LordDVG Quit (Remote host closed the connection)
22:30:05bobdaduck has joined
22:30:20bobdaduckHow does setVel() work? Can I just say "HORIZONTAL" and it will work?
22:30:31raptorit's a vector
22:30:35raptorso 100, 0
22:30:40raptoris --->
22:30:46raptor500, 0 is ---------------------------->
22:32:15raptorso has this main page DIV always been this wide?: http://sam6.25u.com/upload/2snapshot26.png
22:32:27bobdaduckand would -500, 0 be left then, and 0, 500 be up?
22:32:34raptoryes
22:32:36raptorbut
22:32:40raptorup might be reversed...
22:32:45raptorso -500 be up..
22:32:45bobdaduckOkay
22:32:47raptormaybe
22:32:49bobdaduckYeah I think it is
22:32:52raptoror maybe that's just for level coords
22:32:54raptorok
22:35:43Watusimotoraptor: what in the world is that png showing
22:35:57raptoroh, uh 3D DOM view of the home page
22:36:03raptorit's built into firefox
22:36:05Watusimotointeresting!
22:36:43Watusimotothen answer to your question is probably yes!
22:37:12raptorthat's odd, i've never noticed it before..
22:41:49Watusimotohow would you have noticed it?
22:42:21WatusimotoI say probably because I don;t think anyone has edited the css for years
22:43:40raptorthese are the CSS properties on it: margin: 143px auto 50px -358px;
22:43:45raptorthat's bonkers!
22:43:54raptorand I don't want to diagnose this so I'm quitting
22:44:24raptorFedora packages back up for bitfighter
22:45:38Watusimotoexcellent!
22:46:18WatusimotoI vaguely remember creating that css, and as I recall there were other things interacting with it that encouraged me to give these weird margins
22:46:45Watusimotowow, lots of players every time I check!
22:46:48raptoryeah because when setting the margins to zero, the page moves half way to the right
22:46:53raptoryeah it's great!
22:47:11raptori need to make a map for the contest yet..
22:47:30Watusimotolamp has played 161 games this week!
22:48:01raptoroh wow
22:48:13Watusimotoraptor in for the win... 2nd in official wins this week
22:48:35Watusimotoperhaps you sell your skill short
22:50:13raptoryay!
22:50:24bobdaduckRaptor's good at objectives
22:50:27raptornahh... i just know how to join the right teams :)
22:50:28bobdaduckAnd tactics
22:50:30raptoryes that ^^
22:50:36raptori don't actually score much
22:50:38bobdaduckHe just has a hard time dogfighting usually
22:50:48raptorbut i play to upset the other team in any way possible
22:51:03raptorthat's why people had playing board games with me
22:51:06raptor*hate
22:51:14bobdaducklol
22:51:22raptorbecause i don't play to win
22:51:36raptoralso, bobdaduck, your sister beat me at bitmatch..
22:51:41bobdaducklol
22:51:44raptortoday
22:51:48raptorare you sure it wasn't you?
22:52:10bobdaducklol
22:52:15bobdaduckYeah she's on the computer next to me
22:52:36raptorheh
22:52:53raptorwell, she's beaten the learning curve already..
22:54:16bobdaduckTHE BLOODY
22:54:23bobdaduckI can spawn cores via levelgen.
22:54:36raptorDONT DO IT
22:54:42bobdaduckrofl
23:00:58bobdaduckI wanna spawn circles
23:01:10raptorthat's OK, you can want
23:01:12bobdaduckbut it'll just crash xD

23:04:01raptorhuh
23:04:04raptori guess you can't
23:04:14raptorwe have a getter, but not a setter
23:04:52Little_Apple has joined
23:05:03raptorlooking...
23:05:22raptoranyways, I don't think Watusimoto wanted the asteroid size feature anyways..

23:05:54WatusimotoI never said I didn't... but I don't
23:06:01Watusimotonow I've said it
23:06:16Watusimotothey are what they are
23:09:47bobdaduckCan we add that?
23:10:25raptoradd the removal of the size option? ok
23:12:27bobdaducklol
23:12:35bobdaduckNo add the size option in to levelgen
23:12:37bobdaducklua
23:14:07Nothing_Muchwatusimoto, that's awesome
23:14:18Watusimotoyes!
23:14:27Nothing_Muchglad it got accepted on Desura anyways :D
23:14:42Nothing_Muchoh and yeah, the home page has that horizontal line for some reason
23:14:50Nothing_Muchhappens on both chromium and firefox
23:15:15Watusimotoso far despite the difficulties we had, and the work we had to do, we've got a lot of new people playing
23:15:20Watusimotowhat horizontal line?
23:15:29Nothing_Muchthe scroll bar
23:15:30raptorhe means the wide div
23:15:38Nothing_Muchthat thing
23:15:51Nothing_MuchI'm a middle clicker when it comes to web browsing :P
23:16:23Nothing_Muchthe other web pages on bitfighter.org are fine
23:16:32Nothing_Muchit's just the home page itself (bitfighter.org)
23:16:58Watusimotothe wide div is not visible though
23:17:36WatusimotoI see no scrollbar on chromium
23:17:52Nothing_Muchoh, that's strange
23:18:40Nothing_Muchthough, I'm not on a widescreen monitor, I've got a standard fullscreen 1280x1024
23:24:06koda Quit (Quit: koda)
23:29:13WatusimotoI'm on a laptop, so not much big monitor action here
23:29:26Watusimotowhere is it?
23:29:29Watusimotoat the bottom?
23:29:42raptor can't wait to see what surprises Watusimoto has in store with his next checkin..
23:29:59Nothing_Muchyeah it's at the bottom
23:30:02Watusimotooh wait... there IS a scrollbar!
23:30:10Nothing_Muchyes!
23:30:12WatusimotoI never noticed that before
23:31:24Nothing_Muchhaha, well I just noticed it recently
23:33:09raptorforgive me, i have sinned - i'm working on another project: freeorion
23:35:28bobdaduckNO RAPTOR
23:35:29bobdaduckNOOOO
23:36:04raptori know i know
23:36:25Nothing_Muchvariety can help motivate for some other features for the main project here
23:37:32Little_Appleturn based space empire game...
23:37:40Nothing_Mucheh
23:37:48Nothing_Muchturn based is.. eh
23:38:11raptoroh hi Little_Apple
23:38:17Little_Applehello there
23:38:18raptorwhen did you come in?
23:38:23Little_Applea while ago :P
23:38:33Little_Appleim a ninjaaaa
23:38:40bobdaduckSo
23:38:49bobdaduckI may have just created the best level ever
23:38:52bobdaduckor the worst level
23:38:56bobdaduckAnd its kind of hard to tell?
23:38:57Little_Applethe one with all the levelgens?
23:39:05bobdaduckNO
23:39:08bobdaduckof course not!
23:39:08Little_Appleaww
23:39:12bobdaduckThat's not a level that's a lab!
23:39:13Little_Applebut lamp liked it...
23:39:22bobdaduckLamp also likes DUNGEONS.
23:39:27Little_Applethat would be a great level for a bbb
23:39:50Little_Apple is not here at the moment
23:40:20bobdaduckIts probably the worst level ever
23:40:30bobdaduckBecause I can't specify asteroid size
23:40:40Nothing_Muchoh dear
23:40:56Nothing_Muchastroids are, no matter how big, kill in one shot right?
23:41:06Nothing_Muchstrike the "are"
23:41:08bobdaduckright
23:41:24Nothing_Muchlol, unless you have a shield, but what about armor?
23:41:32bobdaduckIf armor two shots
23:41:37Nothing_Muchoh my
23:43:42Nothing_Much wow, that's a lot of players
