01:37:13raptorhmmm net split
01:37:18raptorlooks like i found the logbot
02:19:00bobdaduck has joined
02:20:05bobdaduckHai
02:22:43raptorhi
02:25:34raptorbobdaduck: should shield energy rate usage increase or should we reduce the energy faster only if hit with a bullet
02:26:02bobdaduckI vote against getting hit by a bullet
02:26:11bobdaduckIt encourages more precise timing of shields.
02:26:33raptorok, that's what i'm thinking, too
02:27:18raptorit would also be a more drastic change compared to just an across-the-board increase..
02:28:01bobdaduckAlso I vote keep armor's movement penalty and increase the armor amount (1/3 instead of 1/2)
02:28:10raptoractually
02:28:30raptori already made armor changes
02:28:36bobdaduckAlso the double tap repair was conceptualized to be exactly like the boost double tap: use all your energy to get the repair all at once
02:28:45raptormovement penalty kept
02:28:57raptorarmor reduction is at 40%
02:29:03bobdaduckLittle_apple's repairitem drop is interesting though
02:29:18raptorand burst-impulse has a less effect on armor than normal
02:31:10raptorthe double-tap repair idea...
02:32:15raptorI like the idea of having the module secondary powers
02:32:21raptorbut watusimoto not so much
02:32:37raptorbut he plays less with them..
02:33:43bobdaduckWatusimoto hardly plays in general.
02:34:05bobdaduckI like him but I don't trust his opinions on gameplay xD
02:34:21raptorha
02:34:48bobdaduckThe contest party is the first time I've seen him actually in-game in over five months.
02:34:59raptoroh wow
02:50:52raptorok, balance changes to triple?
02:53:27bobdaduckWhere do we want to go with it?
02:53:45raptori don't know
02:53:46bobdaduckShotgun? Not having to aim? hitting multiple targets? Piercing shields?
02:54:08raptorprobably more like shotgun..
02:54:45raptori'm thinking minor tweaks to previous usage to make it more desirable to use..
02:55:36bobdaduckSo make it shoot five bullets.
02:55:38bobdaduckand increase the spread
02:55:39bobdaduckand make it take more energy to compensate.
02:55:39bobdaduckPretty easy changes
02:55:39bobdaduckI could do those myself, actually
02:55:48bobdaduckHow so?
02:57:33raptoryou've shown me the 5 bullets
02:57:41raptorpoint-blank-only will kill
02:58:43bobdaduckWell that had a slight damage increase along with
02:58:48bobdaduckFor whatever reason people are adverse to one shot kills
03:01:53bobdaduckSo we could make it so it just does a whole lot more damage point blank and we'd be fine
03:01:55bobdaduckLike two shots point blank
03:01:58bobdaduckSo how do I HG update to 019?
03:02:05bobdaduckIts just taking me to 018a right now.
03:02:59raptorhg up tip
03:03:41raptoryou can test the bouncer/phaser/armor changes I already made... i'm testing increasing shield usage slightly now..
03:05:23bobdaduckHG up tip?
03:05:33raptoryeah, update to 'tip'
03:05:42raptorerr, are you using the command line?
03:06:04bobdaduck0 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved...
03:06:20raptordo 'hg summary'

03:07:47raptorhuh
03:08:03raptorok, do 'hg up default'
03:08:07raptoroh

03:09:13bobdaduckI don't know how hg works xD
03:09:22raptorheh
03:09:53bobdaduckokay
03:09:58bobdaduckdo I need to update tip now?
03:10:12raptorthere's just some basic concepts you need to understand. if you want to understand better, here is a simple tutorial that explains stuff in a not-too-difficult way: http://hginit.com/

04:41:02bobdaduck_mCharge into a wall shooting bouncer
04:41:16bobdaduck_mwell not charge just stay holding into it.
04:42:22bobdaduck_mThe bouncer was like inside the wall
04:46:48raptorodd
04:47:28bobdaduck_m Quit ()

04:53:26bobdaduckI'll show you?
04:53:47raptorok
04:53:54raptori changed bouncer again
04:53:59bobdaduckjust did pull
04:54:00raptori have a server up..
04:54:00bobdaduckbuilding
04:54:06raptorshould build quick
04:54:36bobdaduckIt did
05:09:20bobdaduckWant me to try making triple a five way?
05:14:00raptorI think 3 is still good, honestly
05:14:17raptorbut maybe I'll increase damage..
05:17:52bobdaduckbut I wanna do somethingggg
05:17:53bobdaduckxD
05:18:26raptorsuns?
05:18:39bobdaducklol
05:18:52bobdaduckYeah sure WHERE THE CRAP DO I START
05:19:31bobdaduckI could maybe do it but someone would have to give me a framework for it xD
05:19:32raptoruhh
05:19:40raptoractually adding new game objects is non-trivial
05:20:06bobdaduckyeah.
05:20:18bobdaduckI know.
05:20:19bobdaduckxD
05:20:48raptorso, what do you think of the armor/phaser/shield changes? they're small, but i think the phaser one may have a significant impact
05:21:11bobdaduckphaser shield good
05:21:18bobdaduckarmor
05:21:44bobdaduckUh
05:21:49bobdaduckBouncer is still stupid
05:21:50raptoryeah, nuff said
05:21:52bobdaduckbut I think its good.
05:21:53bobdaduckxD
05:21:54raptorhaha
05:21:57bobdaduckminus the bouncer part.
05:24:00raptorthat bouncer-in-wall bug is going to be difficult enough to find that I think I'm going to pretend you didn't find it
05:24:43bobdaducklol
05:24:47bobdaduckIt doesn't affect much.
05:25:13bobdaduckUh, obviously the bouncer is created at the tip of the ship. When you're rammed into the wall, the bouncer can actually be created inside the wall.
05:25:16bobdaduckNot hard to find?
05:25:31raptoryeah, but what about phaser?
05:26:02bobdaduckPhaser doesn't bounce.
05:27:08bobdaduckThe bouncer is bouncing off the wall immediately after creation and that knocks it into the wall. Since phaser is created on the wall edge it just pops and that's the end of it
05:27:14bobdaduckbouncer doesn't pop so the effect can happen
05:29:43raptorok, makes sense...
05:37:34bobdaduckForcefield levelgens?
05:37:43raptoroh argh
05:37:44raptorso
05:37:58raptorwith those... can you send me your code that actually got the projectors to move?
05:38:03raptorbecause, I can't seem to do that..
05:38:21bobdaduckignore projectors moving
05:38:22bobdaduckxD
05:38:34bobdaduckChanging projector teams
05:38:37bobdaduckis the simplest case.
05:38:41raptorok focus on the team..
05:38:44raptorhmm
05:39:06bobdaduckAlso adding five way seems like a good change. (would joining my server crash you?)
05:39:16raptormaybe..
05:42:50raptorcrash!

06:16:15raptori was going to make s_bot enhancements..
06:16:21raptorand you distracted me..
06:16:25bobdaducklol
06:16:32bobdaduckI'm nearly sorry.
06:20:34raptorshould sbot target enemy mines?
06:25:02bobdaduckNo
06:25:07bobdaduckit should shield them though...
06:26:55raptorhmmm

06:27:59bobdaduck!
06:28:15raptorheh
06:28:17raptorinteresting
06:28:28raptorlooks like s_bot has a 'defense' stat you can adjust

17:44:22bobdaduckRaptor
17:44:29raptorhello
17:44:32bobdaduckI have a simple test case for you for the forcefield levelgen bug
17:44:38bobdaduckhttp://pastie.org/6451208#
17:44:41raptoroh good
17:45:18bobdaduckAlso I couldn't get it to move either so maybe that's a seperate bug or something.
17:45:43raptorok
17:45:54raptorthat seems more in line with what I've been experiencing..
17:46:11bobdaduckOr you could remove the projectors, and the beam would still stay there.
17:46:20raptorheh, yes
17:46:24raptori've seen that too
17:46:50bobdaduckso alternatively projector:removeFromGame()
17:47:14raptorok
17:47:16bobdaduck...why is there a method for "isInCaptureZone()" for a forcefieldprojector?
17:47:26raptorthere is??
17:47:31bobdaducklol
17:47:31bobdaduckyeah
17:47:51raptorha!
17:47:52bobdaduckalso isOnShip()
17:48:24raptorok that's because of inheritance
17:48:38raptorit has those from 'Item'
17:48:53raptorwhich has some wonky methods... my guess is that we have some clean-up to do...
17:49:04bobdaduckMaybe.
17:49:19bobdaduckFix projectors first pl0x
17:49:20raptork
17:49:30raptorfirst, i need to study for an exam...
17:49:40bobdaduckLuck!
17:49:51raptorno, luck means I didn't learn anything
17:49:55raptorI need knowledge
17:50:05raptor:)
17:50:25raptorbut thanks! (I should not criticize well-wishes from others, methinks...)
17:50:45bobdaducklol
17:50:47bobdaduckIts okay
17:50:51bobdaduckI don't believe in luck anyway
17:52:01raptori'm curious - if you move the ship over a repair item in Windows, does it render behind it?
17:52:21bobdaduckyeah
17:52:35raptorsigh bugh
17:57:33bobdaduckWait
17:57:34bobdaduckNo?
17:57:42bobdaduckThe repair item is behind the ship...
18:11:22bobdaduckOkay so
18:11:30bobdaduckI put two healthpacks on top of each other
18:11:35bobdaduckand THEN its in front of the ship
18:12:10bobdaduck*begins exploting*
18:13:20raptorthis is what i see: http://i.imgur.com/19LdGQs.png
18:13:45raptorthere is only one health pack
18:13:52raptorit must be semi-random, then
18:15:12watusimoto Quit (Read error: Operation timed out)
18:16:54bobdaduckOkay I made a level with a ton of health packs on it and only one showed up properly
18:17:12raptorok, i've written it down..
18:17:15raptorodd
18:17:31bobdaduckAnd I think it was the last one I created
18:20:40raptorthat's less than semi-random...
18:22:00bobdaduck'tis.
