| 00:01:02 | bobdaduck | uh raptor |
| 00:01:05 | bobdaduck | what does break do? |
| 00:01:07 | raptor | FALSE |
| 00:01:11 | raptor | oh |
| 00:01:15 | raptor | it exits the loop |
| 00:01:17 | raptor | so the loop stops |
| 00:01:23 | raptor | and code continues past |
| 00:01:30 | bobdaduck | ...because I think that was crashing the game. |
| 00:01:43 | raptor | break could not... |
| 00:01:49 | raptor | but.. |
| 00:01:59 | raptor | the game or a script? |
| 00:02:01 | bobdaduck | game |
| 00:02:10 | raptor | hmm |
| 00:02:15 | bobdaduck | Nowait, I added them back in and the game continues to not crash |
| 00:02:18 | bobdaduck | phew. |
| 00:02:54 | bobdaduck | something is crashing it occasionally though |
| 00:02:58 | raptor | ok |
| 00:02:59 | raptor | so |
| 00:03:16 | bobdaduck | and its with the healthpack code |
| 00:03:25 | raptor | never ever ever ever do more than one delete from a table in a loop |
| 00:03:28 | bobdaduck | because my other energy pack level crashed too |
| 00:03:54 | bobdaduck | uh |
| 00:03:57 | bobdaduck | I'm using your code |
| 00:03:58 | bobdaduck | so... xD |
| 00:04:56 | raptor | that's why the break is there |
| 00:05:46 | raptor | ok, maybe it's a concurrency issue... Watusimoto_? can a Lua table concurrency issue exist with our system? |
| 00:06:19 | raptor | and if so, can it crash the game? |
| 00:08:07 | raptor | bobdaduck: idea |
| 00:08:11 | bobdaduck | yah |
| 00:08:28 | raptor | any where your in a loop with a table and there is a table.remove |
| 00:09:11 | bobdaduck | yes |
| 00:09:25 | raptor | paste here me one of those table.remove lines |
| 00:10:13 | bobdaduck | for i, v in ipairs(registeredHealthPacks) |
| 00:10:13 | bobdaduck | do |
| 00:10:13 | bobdaduck | if(v == playerInfo) then |
| 00:10:13 | bobdaduck | table.remove(registeredHealthPacks, i) |
| 00:10:13 | bobdaduck | break |
| 00:10:14 | bobdaduck | end |
| 00:10:17 | bobdaduck | end |
| 00:10:32 | raptor | instead of doing: table.remove(registeredHealthPacks, i) |
| 00:10:38 | raptor | try: |
| 00:10:48 | raptor | registeredHealthPacks[i] = nil |
| 00:11:01 | raptor | so instead of removing it, we just set it to nil |
| 00:11:57 | raptor | also my brother says its unfortunate cloaking doesn't work in your carnival level |
| 00:12:09 | bobdaduck | what |
| 00:12:09 | bobdaduck | xD |
| 00:13:51 | bobdaduck | there it goes |
| 00:13:52 | bobdaduck | crashed |
| 00:14:17 | raptor | had you added my suggested change? |
| 00:14:35 | bobdaduck | nope |
| 00:51:54 | raptor | ok i must know... who won that RTS map.. was it yellow or green? |

| 00:56:39 | | Platskies Quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) |
| 00:59:03 | bobdaduck | crashed again |
| 00:59:06 | bobdaduck | running your code |
| 00:59:09 | bobdaduck | dunno what's causing it |
| 00:59:12 | bobdaduck | Its not when someone leaves |
| 01:04:50 | raptor | there's gotta be a way to see a stack trace... |
| 01:06:30 | bobdaduck | ikr |
| 01:06:36 | raptor | i *know* windows 7 can show one somehow |
| 01:06:37 | bobdaduck | I dunno of anything short of compiling it myself |
| 01:06:47 | bobdaduck | ooh |
| 01:06:50 | bobdaduck | flash is crashing as well. |
| 01:06:55 | raptor | flash? |
| 01:07:53 | bobdaduck | Pandora, etc |
| 01:07:56 | bobdaduck | Adobe flash. |
| 01:08:09 | raptor | weird.. maybe you're having a hardware problem? |
| 01:08:18 | bobdaduck | *maybe* |
| 01:08:26 | raptor | like the actual physical RAM in your compy is going bad? |
| 01:08:28 | bobdaduck | I'm more inclined to think its a scripting error though. |
| 01:08:37 | raptor | yeah, me too |
| 01:08:41 | raptor | that is more likely.. |

| 02:19:20 | raptor | heh |
| 02:19:22 | raptor | working... |
| 02:31:36 | raptor | sorry back in a bit |
| 02:31:48 | Little_Apple | k |
| 02:44:05 | fordcars | raptor: bots shield themselves when player shoots from same team again |
| 02:44:10 | fordcars | :( |
| 02:47:57 | raptor | what.. |
| 02:49:36 | fordcars | nevermind |
| 02:49:43 | fordcars | added old s_bot :P |
| 02:49:49 | raptor | ha! |
| 02:49:56 | fordcars | phew |
| 02:59:41 | fordcars | can you give more than one arg in /addbot? |
| 03:01:56 | fordcars | oh yes you can |
| 03:02:15 | raptor | yes you can :) |
| 03:03:26 | fordcars | is it just /addbot s_bot 0 [arg1] [arg2]------ how do you write them^ |
| 03:03:33 | raptor | i think so |
| 03:03:40 | raptor | spaces are the delimiter |
| 03:03:58 | fordcars | how does it know wich args are which then? |
| 03:04:53 | raptor | Little_Apple: almost done with the registration... |
| 03:04:58 | raptor | have to fix a few crashes :) |
| 03:05:04 | Little_Apple | :D |
| 03:09:43 | raptor | it works! muahahaha |
| 03:10:40 | raptor | ok |
| 03:10:46 | raptor | player registration and remove works |
| 03:10:54 | raptor | Little_Apple: how did you want it to work? |
| 03:11:18 | Little_Apple | everytime a player dies it checks to see if all the players in the zone are in the same team |
| 03:11:32 | raptor | ok right |
| 03:11:49 | raptor | and then do what? |
| 03:13:15 | Little_Apple | uh.. |
| 03:13:26 | Little_Apple | if they aren't, then do nothing.. |
| 03:13:37 | Little_Apple | it they are then display a chat message i guess |
| 03:13:40 | raptor | if one hit's zero, then display a message? |
| 03:13:41 | raptor | ok |
| 03:16:45 | Little_Apple | :D |
| 03:20:42 | raptor | ok |
| 03:20:45 | raptor | ready for it? |
| 03:22:28 | raptor | Little_Apple: your registration and win/loss check: http://pastie.org/7119757 |
| 03:22:54 | Little_Apple | wooaahhh |
| 03:23:06 | Little_Apple | i need to figure out what it actually does :D |
| 03:23:57 | raptor | yeah - i tried to use lots of helper functions so they could be reused elsewhere |
| 03:24:12 | raptor | WAIT |
| 03:24:15 | raptor | found a bug! |
| 03:24:18 | Little_Apple | :P |
| 03:24:31 | Little_Apple | every program has one function main correct? |
| 03:24:33 | | kaen has joined |
| 03:25:19 | raptor | just one, yes |
| 03:25:46 | raptor | ok, bug fixed: http://pastie.org/7119780 |
| 03:25:46 | Little_Apple | ok thought so :P |
| 03:26:03 | Little_Apple | thanks :D |
| 03:27:04 | Little_Apple | so i should be able to toss this into my script and have it work? |
| 03:27:05 | raptor | you'll have to merge in stuff.. |
| 03:27:16 | fordcars | hey raptor, how do you write, for example, 2 diffrent args in `addbot? |
| 03:27:29 | raptor | yes, it should work, but you'll have to merge any of the event functions and main() |
| 03:27:35 | raptor | because there can be only one of each |
| 03:27:47 | Little_Apple | did you use 4 for the zone id? |
| 03:27:59 | raptor | fordcars: /addbot s_bot 0 arg1 arg2 |
| 03:28:09 | raptor | yes |
| 03:28:14 | raptor | you'll have to change that.. |
| 03:28:38 | fordcars | really? ok, so args are in order like that... |
| 03:29:07 | raptor | yes |
| 03:29:20 | raptor | but i'm entirely sure of your question |
| 03:29:24 | raptor | *not* |
| 03:29:28 | raptor | not entirely sure.. |
| 03:29:49 | fordcars | sorry, I understood myself :P But yeah it works thanks |
| 03:29:56 | raptor | hah ok :) |
| 03:30:58 | Little_Apple | oh, one thing i shouldve mentioned earlier... |
| 03:31:01 | Little_Apple | stupid me. |
| 03:31:58 | Little_Apple | the zone needs to wait at least 4 seconds before it starts to detect players otherwise it would go nuts because no one is in the zone |
| 03:31:58 | raptor | ? |
| 03:32:24 | raptor | what would go nuts? |
| 03:32:28 | Little_Apple | players don't spawn in the zone, they're teleported |
| 03:32:53 | Little_Apple | if the script started immediately then it wouldnt know what to do... |
| 03:32:55 | raptor | yes |
| 03:33:02 | raptor | it works fine for me... |
| 03:33:24 | | kaen Quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds) |
| 03:33:27 | Little_Apple | hmm.. ill try merging scripts then.. |
| 03:33:43 | raptor | it registers the players in those teamCountBlue/Red tables when they enter the zone |
| 03:34:54 | Little_Apple | making a backup of my old script in case things go horribly wrong.. |
| 03:35:25 | raptor | smart! |
| 03:36:06 | Little_Apple | im guessing i dont 'need' the timer in the main.. |

| 04:52:35 | raptor | here is a guide to see past crash reports in windows 7: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/4566-problem-reports-solutions-view-history-details.html |
| 05:18:18 | bobdaduck | sorry mostly afk |
| 05:42:20 | bobdaduck | Okay |
| 05:42:51 | bobdaduck | So... This? http://pastie.org/7120542 |
| 05:46:37 | raptor | aaaaaaaaaaaaaa? |
| 05:46:50 | raptor | yes! |
| 05:46:52 | raptor | is there more? |
| 06:05:27 | raptor | bobdaduck: still up? |
| 06:14:51 | bobdaduck | technically |
| 06:14:54 | bobdaduck | No there's not more |
| 06:14:57 | raptor | http://pastie.org/7119780 |
| 06:15:10 | raptor | I fixed the table remove possible crash bug |
| 06:15:34 | raptor | at the top of that pastie is a function: searchAndRemoveFromTable() |
| 06:15:49 | raptor | that should be used to properly remove something from a global table |
| 06:15:57 | raptor | without any possible crash |
| 06:16:53 | raptor | and can be reused a lot to save code in your scripts |
| 06:16:55 | raptor | but |
| 06:16:57 | raptor | i'm going to bed now |
| 06:17:11 | raptor | good night! (if you're still reading..) |

| 19:00:28 | bobdaduck | Goodmorning, gentleraptor |
| 19:03:11 | raptor | hello |
| 19:05:13 | bobdaduck | On your fix for my crash |
| 19:05:28 | bobdaduck | Did you just make a new function and call it instead of table.remove()? |
| 19:05:43 | raptor | yes |
| 19:05:53 | raptor | but you put in the object to search for instead of the index |
| 19:07:10 | bobdaduck | So to adapt that to carnival |
| 19:07:28 | bobdaduck | I just swap out table.remove() for a call to that function, and then put the function in? |
| 19:08:12 | raptor | you remove the entire for loop that searches for the playerInfo |
| 19:08:20 | raptor | and just do that function(table, playerInfo) |

| 19:16:53 | bobdaduck | What. |
| 19:18:01 | SolumnMus | This is why I'm glad I have an IRC client |
| 19:18:31 | raptor | bobdaduck: basically |
| 19:18:39 | raptor | you never remove from a table you're looping through |
| 19:19:32 | raptor | because bad things happen |
| 19:19:41 | raptor | it might not fix your crash, but it is good practice.. |

| 20:15:10 | Watusimoto | do you have ocra.tff in the proper place, with the proper capitalization? |

| 20:15:37 | Watusimoto | maybe so? |
| 20:15:40 | raptor | forgot the stupid symlink |
| 20:15:51 | Watusimoto | it should be in the repo, though |
| 20:16:00 | raptor | there we go |
| 20:16:04 | raptor | good as new |
| 20:16:07 | Watusimoto | :-) |
| 20:16:09 | raptor | false alarm |
| 20:16:11 | Watusimoto | glad I could help |
| 20:16:15 | raptor | thanks! |
| 20:16:16 | Watusimoto | do a full recompile |
| 20:16:19 | Watusimoto | just to be sure :-) |
| 20:16:20 | raptor | haha |
| 20:16:29 | Watusimoto | that fixed my problem last night, btw |
| 20:16:36 | raptor | oh really? |
| 20:16:38 | raptor | ha! |
| 20:16:47 | Watusimoto | of course! |
| 20:17:02 | raptor | i wonder why vc++ gets out of sync like that... i thought it would have mature dependency scanning |

| 20:19:00 | raptor | Watusimoto: the quick chat [Esc] text is overlappy.. http://sam6.25u.com/upload/5screenshot_12.png |
| 20:19:45 | Watusimoto | yes |
| 20:19:48 | Watusimoto | I know |
| 20:19:56 | Watusimoto | it's better (but not totally fixed) here |
| 20:20:11 | raptor | ah ok |
| 20:20:22 | Watusimoto | these stupid screen text things are totally a pain |
| 20:20:33 | Watusimoto | did you see my comment about the length of "LLLLL " |
| 20:20:35 | Watusimoto | ? |
| 20:20:43 | Watusimoto | I posted it just before you came online |
| 20:20:44 | raptor | no... looking... |
| 20:21:11 | raptor | what! |
| 20:21:16 | raptor | so spaces are stripped? |
| 20:21:19 | raptor | or compressed? |
| 20:22:24 | raptor | also, here is kaen's work-in-progress level database: http://bitfighter.org/pleiades/ |
| 20:24:44 | Watusimoto | they are not stripped |
| 20:26:11 | Watusimoto | if you look at fontstash.c, line 671, there is a loop over each char in the string |
| 20:26:12 | Watusimoto | for (; *s; ++s) |
| 20:26:13 | Watusimoto | ... |
| 20:26:29 | raptor | oh yes, my favorite loop syntax |
| 20:26:32 | Watusimoto | in that loop is the following line |
| 20:26:34 | Watusimoto | if (!get_quad(stash, fnt, glyph, isize, &x, &y, &q)) continue; |
| 20:26:43 | Watusimoto | that definitely gets run for the trailing space |
| 20:27:01 | Watusimoto | glyph, at that point is consistent for the space, whether it is leading, middle, or trailing |
| 20:27:04 | Watusimoto | however |
| 20:27:08 | Watusimoto | q comes back different |
| 20:27:20 | Watusimoto | and the next 4 lines are: |
| 20:27:21 | Watusimoto | if (q.x0 < *minx) *minx = q.x0; |
| 20:27:21 | Watusimoto | if (q.x1 > *maxx) *maxx = q.x1; |
| 20:27:21 | Watusimoto | if (q.y1 < *miny) *miny = q.y1; |
| 20:27:21 | Watusimoto | if (q.y0 > *maxy) *maxy = q.y0; |
| 20:27:33 | Watusimoto | so q is the crucial thing for determining size |
| 20:27:34 | raptor | ahh... i was trying to decipher that last week... |
| 20:27:47 | Watusimoto | I hae no idea why if the glpph is the same, q would be different |
| 20:27:54 | Watusimoto | but I probably just don't understand what q is |
| 20:28:09 | Watusimoto | however... q also differs for the various Ls in the string |
| 20:28:15 | Watusimoto | so it's kind of complex |
| 20:28:39 | Watusimoto | q is one of these: |
| 20:28:40 | Watusimoto | struct sth_quad |
| 20:28:40 | Watusimoto | { |
| 20:28:40 | Watusimoto | float x0,y0,s0,t0; |
| 20:28:40 | Watusimoto | float x1,y1,s1,t1; |
| 20:28:42 | Watusimoto | }; |
| 20:28:42 | raptor | should we open an issue on github?: https://github.com/akrinke/Font-Stash/issues |
| 20:28:50 | Watusimoto | maybe |
| 20:29:04 | Watusimoto | I do have one theory though |
| 20:29:26 | Watusimoto | with ttf fonts there's all kinds of kerning and variable spacing |
| 20:29:35 | Watusimoto | perhaps the font itself is compressing terminal spaces |
| 20:29:43 | raptor | ahh |
| 20:29:55 | Watusimoto | ttf is, i think, like a little program |
| 20:29:59 | Watusimoto | that runs to create the font |
| 20:30:46 | Watusimoto | though if my theory were correct, our textures would fill up pretty quickly from all these different variations of the same glyph |
| 20:31:27 | bobdaduck | Might we implement some sort of /update command in a level, to automatically download the latest version from the database? |
| 20:31:58 | Watusimoto | "TrueType systems include a virtual machine that executes programs inside the font, processing the "hints" of the glyphs. " |
| 20:32:07 | raptor | oh fun |
| 20:32:15 | Watusimoto | not our problem! |
| 20:32:18 | raptor | bobdaduck: eventually - lots of details to work out |
| 20:32:55 | bobdaduck | That would be the nicest part. |
| 20:32:56 | bobdaduck | xD |
| 20:32:58 | raptor | kaen is still getting the DB set up with proper permissions, etc... |
| 20:33:30 | raptor | once we have a stable schema (probably pretty close already), then we can think about hooking into the game |
| 20:33:31 | Watusimoto | I should probably retest with a constant width font |
| 20:34:21 | Watusimoto | look at that... the database includes levelgen code! |
| 20:34:33 | Watusimoto | and a vote button! |
| 20:34:36 | raptor | yes.. and look what happens when youdownload a level with it |
| 20:35:02 | | kaen Quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) |
| 20:35:12 | Watusimoto | it taps into our standard password system... |
| 20:35:22 | Watusimoto | and successfully prevents me from downloading anything! |
| 20:35:24 | Watusimoto | perfect! |
| 20:35:37 | Watusimoto | oh wait... there it is in a zip file |
| 20:35:55 | raptor | with the levelgen named appropriately to the level 'Script' directive |
| 20:36:26 | Watusimoto | that's great! it can simultaneously ban me and let me dowload. It's kind of a parallel universe type of system |
| 20:37:15 | Watusimoto | it should pull the level designer out and give that as much weight as the uploader when displaying results |
| 20:37:26 | raptor | yes, i told him that |
| 20:37:37 | Watusimoto | but this is very cool. we can totally hook the game ui into this somehow |
| 20:37:40 | raptor | in fact, uploader will probably go away |
| 20:38:06 | raptor | only people logged in can upload their own maps |
| 20:38:14 | Watusimoto | i think it makes sense to create it as a web service first, then build it out from there |
| 20:38:17 | raptor | but a handful will be able to upload a map by anyone... |
| 20:38:28 | raptor | a web service... hmmm |
| 20:38:29 | Watusimoto | where's sam when you need him? |
| 20:38:34 | raptor | yeah |
| 20:38:39 | Watusimoto | well, it currently is a web service |
| 20:39:00 | Watusimoto | we need to figure out how to generate images of the levels |
| 20:44:09 | raptor | i got bitfighter to write to SVG once using this: http://www.geuz.org/gl2ps/ |
| 20:44:36 | raptor | it takes whatever the current OpenGL calls are being run on screen and writes equivalents in SVG |
| 20:49:51 | Watusimoto | and it worked? |
| 20:50:47 | | BFLogBot Commit: 19f915d4f993 | Author: watusimoto | Message: Aesthetics |
| 20:52:13 | raptor | yes |
| 20:52:34 | raptor | I don't remember why I abandoned it |
| 20:52:48 | raptor | I think it was because we needed to render first before creating the SVG |
| 20:53:09 | raptor | and that wouldn't work for a direct level-file to SVG converter.. |
| 20:53:14 | Watusimoto | right |
| 20:55:20 | Watusimoto | int xxx = getStringWidth(FontManager::HelpContext, 24,"LLLLL "); |
| 20:55:20 | Watusimoto | int yyy = getStringWidth(FontManager::HelpContext, 24,"LLL LL"); |
| 20:55:30 | Watusimoto | returns 87, 101 with ocra |

| 21:42:14 | bobdaduck | Hi |
| 21:42:38 | Lamp89 | May i add spawners to my maps? |
| 21:42:44 | Lamp89 | Resource spawners |
| 21:42:51 | bobdaduck | You may, but its a bad idea. |
| 21:43:06 | Lamp89 | I don't think so |
| 21:43:08 | Lamp89 | :| |
| 21:43:25 | bobdaduck | That's what amgine said about rotating speed zones. |
| 21:43:27 | Lamp89 | In all your maps, you say it's a bad idea |
| 21:43:43 | Lamp89 | Well rotating speedzones is a different idea |
| 21:44:06 | Lamp89 | But Instead of making messy caves for maps using Unrestricted Engineer... |
| 21:44:13 | Lamp89 | Spawners make it so much nicer. |
| 21:44:41 | Lamp89 | I made a new 'big' map |
| 21:44:47 | bobdaduck | Yes, they do. They also feature a 98% chance to make your map suck. |
| 21:44:59 | bobdaduck | Granted, engineer does that anyway, but still. |
| 21:45:11 | Lamp89 | Well anyway |
| 21:45:16 | Lamp89 | I'm going to make a video. |
| 21:45:24 | | Lamp89 Quit (Remote host closed the connection) |
| 21:47:09 | bobdaduck | We should probably not have features that exist on the 2% chance that someone will make a good map with them. |

| 21:51:40 | Lamp89 | I could edit the levelgen... |
| 21:51:49 | Lamp89 | and make it spawn asteroids!\ |
| 21:52:02 | Lamp89 | And then remake TRON! |
| 21:52:03 | Lamp89 | :D |
| 21:52:13 | Lamp89 | or i can remake Server Crasher |
| 21:52:31 | | Lamp89 Quit (Remote host closed the connection) |
| 21:54:41 | bobdaduck | While he's at it, we need more maps where the spawn area is just a giant asteroid with a 1 second asteroid spawn underneath it |

| 23:11:44 | bobdaduck | cool |
| 23:11:49 | aeTIos | just registered on the forums :3 |
| 23:17:09 | aeTIos | why did I say that twice |
| 23:19:19 | fordcars | hehe |
| 23:19:41 | fordcars | wondering the same thing :P |
| 23:20:19 | fordcars | raptor: does this still work?: function onMsgReceived(message, senderPlayerInfo) |
| 23:20:33 | bobdaduck | in a levelgen? |
| 23:20:38 | fordcars | bot |
| 23:20:42 | fordcars | botty |
| 23:20:55 | bobdaduck | I use that function in my carnival level, and it doesn't have the second argument. Just onMsgRecieved(message) |
| 23:21:19 | fordcars | you can have 3 arguments: function onMsgReceived(message, senderPlayerInfo, global) |
| 23:21:29 | fordcars | true if msg is global |
| 23:23:18 | bobdaduck | hm |
| 23:24:19 | fordcars | :( wiki says that the player argument is function senderPlayerInfo. Some bots have just player. None of those work :( |
| 23:25:12 | fordcars | anyway gtge, later :P |
| 23:25:16 | bobdaduck | playerInfo |
| 23:25:19 | bobdaduck | just playerInfo |
| 23:25:20 | bobdaduck | try that. |
| 23:25:24 | fordcars | really? |
| 23:25:30 | fordcars | where did you find thaT? |
| 23:26:11 | bobdaduck | I just made it up |
| 23:26:12 | bobdaduck | Might work |
| 23:26:31 | bobdaduck | ...course I don't really understand what problem you're describing, but still! |
| 23:27:04 | fordcars | heh ok |
| 23:27:11 | fordcars | I am trying that now |
| 23:28:08 | fordcars | :( doesn't work |
