| 09:02:37 | bobdaduck | did all the servers explode yesterday? |
| 09:09:45 | bobdaduck | kaen: On pleiades, I think the "recently updated" section should be moved down, maybe just above the "random levels" section |
| 09:10:44 | bobdaduck | Also I can't seem to download the latest bitbuild. |
| 09:12:11 | bobdaduck | Oh my |
| 09:12:14 | bobdaduck | that loading is amazing |

| 11:31:38 | bobdaduck | No one is here to hear this but |
| 11:31:50 | bobdaduck | I may have just figured out a way to duplicate resource items |
| 11:31:58 | bobdaduck | so you can engineer two things out of one resource item |
| 11:31:59 | bobdaduck | um |
| 11:32:05 | bobdaduck | I dunno maybe my code is just bad. |
| 11:32:13 | bobdaduck | No big deal, continue being afk. |

| 13:42:15 | kaen | good day! |
| 13:42:27 | kaen | bobdaduck, did you try mass upload on pleiades yet? |
| 13:42:38 | bobdaduck | NOoooooo |
| 13:43:09 | bobdaduck | BUT |
| 13:43:16 | kaen | http://bitfighter.org/pleiades/levels/massupload |
| 13:43:18 | bobdaduck | I did make another master script for my gladiators erver! |
| 13:43:23 | kaen | groovy! |
| 13:43:34 | kaen | also, latest builds are unavailable because my host is having problems ... |
| 13:43:44 | bobdaduck | ah |
| 13:43:53 | bobdaduck | that would explain why all the servers are down |
| 13:43:54 | bobdaduck | xD |
| 13:43:58 | kaen | yeah :< |
| 13:44:10 | kaen | this is the second time in three months they've been hacked |
| 13:44:15 | bobdaduck | kaentest may it rest in peace |
| 13:44:18 | kaen | no! |
| 13:44:21 | kaen | it shall not die! |
| 13:44:26 | kaen | well |
| 13:44:31 | kaen | maybe that one will die |
| 13:44:43 | kaen | I'll just get a new host :P |
| 13:45:06 | kaen | but there still needs to be an anonymous upload server, so that people without servers can test their maps |
| 13:45:35 | kaen | (on a stable remote server connection low latency) |
| 13:45:42 | bobdaduck | Yeah |
| 13:45:59 | kaen | I think I'll just routinely delete the maps |
| 13:46:01 | kaen | like every night |
| 13:46:41 | bobdaduck | yeah |
| 13:46:48 | bobdaduck | that sounds like a good idea |
| 13:47:13 | kaen | lel |
| 13:47:14 | kaen | by [font size=30]bobdaduck[/font] |
| 13:47:20 | kaen | question: |
| 13:47:23 | bobdaduck | IT WAS WORTH A SHOT |
| 13:47:28 | kaen | are you able to vote on this map now? http://bitfighter.org/pleiades/levels/view/21 |
| 13:47:40 | bobdaduck | no |
| 13:47:48 | kaen | I think admin editing might take ownership of the levels ... |
| 13:47:49 | bobdaduck | I should be able to |
| 13:47:49 | kaen | bad bug |
| 13:47:50 | bobdaduck | I'm a mod |
| 13:47:54 | kaen | well |
| 13:47:58 | kaen | it thinks it's your level now :P |
| 13:48:00 | bobdaduck | I should be able to set all the level votes manually! |
| 13:48:04 | bobdaduck | that's because |
| 13:48:06 | bobdaduck | it is my level |
| 13:48:11 | bobdaduck | oh. |
| 13:48:12 | kaen | oh derp |
| 13:48:17 | bobdaduck | lol |
| 13:48:21 | kaen | I thought it was "puzzle box" |
| 13:48:25 | kaen | try editing someone's map |
| 13:48:38 | kaen | then see if you can vote on it |
| 13:48:44 | bobdaduck | so I can vote on chilled brain |
| 13:49:31 | bobdaduck | if I manually change authorship to something |
| 13:49:39 | bobdaduck | then I can't vote on it anymore |
| 13:50:03 | kaen | ok |
| 13:50:12 | kaen | sounds like it's confirmed |
| 13:50:16 | kaen | now I just edited it |
| 13:50:17 | bobdaduck | if I edit anything else I can still vote though |
| 13:50:19 | kaen | can you vote on it now? |
| 13:50:37 | kaen | I got the bug by adding a dummy line of level code |
| 13:50:37 | bobdaduck | edited what? |
| 13:50:54 | kaen | chilled monkey brain's level code |
| 13:51:00 | kaen | now I can't vote on it |
| 13:51:03 | kaen | can you vote on it now? |
| 13:51:29 | bobdaduck | yes |
| 13:51:37 | kaen | now. |
| 13:51:43 | bobdaduck | no |
| 13:51:45 | kaen | why didn't the test I wrote catch that ... |
| 13:51:52 | kaen | really? |
| 13:51:52 | bobdaduck | wait |
| 13:51:54 | bobdaduck | I DON'T KNOW |
| 13:51:59 | bobdaduck | do something again |
| 13:52:03 | kaen | now I *can* vote on it |
| 13:52:05 | kaen | ok |
| 13:52:09 | kaen | I'll edit it ... |
| 13:52:15 | bobdaduck | sorry I did something |
| 13:52:36 | bobdaduck | can vote now |
| 13:52:39 | kaen | ok |
| 13:52:43 | bobdaduck | one last test |
| 13:52:53 | bobdaduck | can you vote now? |
| 13:52:58 | kaen | yep |
| 13:53:05 | bobdaduck | I changed the author to kaen |
| 13:53:08 | kaen | lol |
| 13:53:23 | kaen | hah! |
| 13:53:26 | kaen | I deleted the author field |
| 13:53:28 | kaen | hit submit |
| 13:53:29 | bobdaduck | so what you do is you have someone else upload your levels for you so that you can vote on them yourself |
| 13:53:33 | kaen | now it says bobdaduck |
| 13:53:37 | bobdaduck | xD |
| 13:53:50 | bobdaduck | and now I can't vote. |
| 13:54:34 | kaen | now I actually can't take ownership of it |
| 13:54:44 | bobdaduck | hm? |
| 13:55:05 | kaen | when the author field was empty (this tells pleiades to use the "owner") |
| 13:55:16 | kaen | my edits no longer took ownership of the level |
| 13:55:17 | kaen | i.e. I could vote |
| 13:55:20 | kaen | after editing it |
| 13:55:31 | kaen | this explains why my test did not catch the bug |
| 13:56:18 | kaen | ok, enough of that |
| 13:56:29 | kaen | I just deleted it |
| 13:56:46 | kaen | because I have no way of actually giving it back to little apple :P |
| 13:56:52 | bobdaduck | xD |
| 13:57:23 | kaen | DIDJA TRY THE MASS UPLOAD, YET? |
| 13:57:27 | bobdaduck | yeah |
| 13:57:35 | kaen | just like try it with your whole upload folder |
| 13:57:48 | kaen | er, whole levels folder |
| 13:58:23 | bobdaduck | I'd have to zip it up |
| 13:58:39 | bobdaduck | and the "open" window only lets me select one file at a time. |
| 13:58:57 | bobdaduck | attempting to upload individual level files does nothing |
| 13:59:03 | kaen | yeah, you'd have to zip it up |
| 13:59:14 | bobdaduck | LEME. |
| 14:00:01 | bobdaduck | uh |
| 14:00:14 | bobdaduck | okay we need this functionality: "collections" |
| 14:00:35 | kaen | *sigh* |
| 14:00:50 | bobdaduck | sigh? |
| 14:00:52 | kaen | okay. after the third person requests it, I guess I'd better do it |
| 14:01:00 | bobdaduck | xD |
| 14:01:03 | kaen | like albums, right? |
| 14:01:12 | bobdaduck | well kinda |
| 14:01:26 | bobdaduck | say I want to upload all the levels I use for the gladiator server, but I want to keep them seperate from all the other levels in the database? |
| 14:01:44 | kaen | how separate? |
| 14:02:13 | bobdaduck | either have a thumbnail that instead of just one level, says "bobdaduck's gladiator collection" or whatever |
| 14:02:20 | bobdaduck | and inside it is another folder. I guess. |
| 14:02:46 | bobdaduck | that or have a seperate section somehow? |
| 14:02:53 | kaen | I think you've lost me |
| 14:03:14 | kaen | okay, give me a write up, describe how you create, find, and explore a collection |
| 14:03:27 | bobdaduck | okay so you want to upload all the maps from solid gold |
| 14:03:30 | kaen | I'll implement it based on what you describe |
| 14:03:38 | bobdaduck | use the mass-upload utility |
| 14:04:18 | bobdaduck | to create it, and I dunno, have some fields that say "this is a collection y/n/q" and name/description and screenshot and such (because a collection will need its own screenshot) |
| 14:04:52 | bobdaduck | find can either be have a seperate section on the front (recently updated, highest rated, collections) |
| 14:05:11 | bobdaduck | or treat a collection just like a normal level, and allow people to rate the entire collection on the front page |
| 14:05:28 | bobdaduck | with the exception that when you try to open the thumbnail |
| 14:05:37 | bobdaduck | it goes to a page with all the individual level thumbnails. |
| 14:06:02 | bobdaduck | I think that's everything |
| 14:06:17 | kaen | ok |
| 14:06:25 | kaen | now it all makes sense |
| 14:06:38 | kaen | I'll do it |
| 14:06:42 | kaen | it'll take a long time |
| 14:07:38 | bobdaduck | This seems like a pretty necessary feature, "long time" is acceptable. |
| 14:08:27 | kaen | https://github.com/kaen/pleiades/issues/34 |
| 14:09:28 | bobdaduck | looks good |
| 14:09:42 | bobdaduck | if I think of anything else I'll comment on the issue... |
| 14:25:11 | bobdaduck | also pleiades is looking really good |
| 14:25:54 | | koda has joined |
| 14:25:59 | kaen | thanks man |

| 14:27:03 | raptor | *soul |
| 14:27:08 | raptor | I started a 4x game |
| 14:27:11 | raptor | help |
| 14:27:13 | raptor | please |
| 14:27:20 | bobdaduck | sec |
| 14:27:25 | bobdaduck | while I google what that is |
| 14:29:15 | raptor | I finally decided to learn to play 'freeorion' |
| 14:29:39 | raptor | (4x: think, 'civilization', 'master of orion') |
| 14:30:32 | bobdaduck | is it multiplayer? |
| 14:30:46 | raptor | they can be |
| 14:30:52 | raptor | mine is only with AI |
| 14:30:56 | bobdaduck | EJECT |
| 14:30:59 | bobdaduck | EJECTTTT |
| 14:32:46 | bobdaduck | Never play single player games on the computer! |
| 14:36:25 | kaen | I used to have a terrible Alpha Centauri addiction |
| 14:36:52 | raptor | and then there was 'stars!' |
| 14:36:59 | raptor | ... the worst of them all |
| 14:37:16 | kaen | never played it |
| 14:37:46 | raptor | http://wiki.starsautohost.org/wiki/Main_Page |
| 14:37:56 | raptor | old windows 3.1 game... runs great in WINE! |
| 14:38:22 | raptor | stars! is to MOO as chess is to checkers |
| 14:38:34 | raptor | horrible graphics |
| 14:39:07 | raptor | you had to play over BBS |
| 14:39:29 | raptor | my brother and I spent 16 hours a day for 3 days playing a game one christmas |
| 14:40:44 | bobdaduck | crazy |
| 14:59:12 | YoshiSmb | you had a brother Raptor? |
| 14:59:51 | raptor | I have 3 |
| 14:59:52 | raptor | :) |
| 15:01:17 | bobdaduck | Really? |
| 15:01:25 | bobdaduck | Why don't they play bitfighter? |
| 15:03:14 | raptor | one is a banker in San Diego, one is a mountain biker from Las Vegas, and the last you've met |
| 15:03:22 | raptor | 'Pedestrian' |
| 15:03:40 | raptor | the other two are a good 15 years older than I |
| 15:12:15 | bobdaduck | You're never too old for bitfighter! |
| 15:12:59 | bobdaduck | You cannot argue with made-up slang phrases! |

| 22:08:46 | bobdaduck | wanna see my new master script for gladiators? |
| 22:09:07 | raptor | hi |
| 22:09:10 | raptor | sure |
| 22:12:25 | bobdaduck | when a global script crashes |
| 22:12:36 | bobdaduck | I think it requires a server-wide reset to fix |
| 22:13:17 | raptor | /clearcache doesn't work? |
| 22:13:36 | bobdaduck | no |
| 22:14:56 | bobdaduck | CRAP |
| 22:15:02 | bobdaduck | can I set projectile ownership in 019? |
| 22:15:26 | raptor | I think so, yes |
| 22:15:28 | raptor | maybe.. |
| 22:15:31 | raptor | checking.. |
| 22:15:37 | bobdaduck | so like, give bobdaduck points for zapping using this script |
| 22:15:43 | bobdaduck | instead of just no points? |
| 22:17:18 | fordcars | Later guys, might be back in a few hours :D |
| 22:17:25 | bobdaduck | nuuuu |
| 22:17:39 | bobdaduck | You need to tell me the status of the swordbot! |
| 22:17:39 | bobdaduck | xD |
| 22:18:25 | bobdaduck | raptor |
| 22:18:31 | bobdaduck | I have some new exploits to show you |
| 22:19:11 | raptor | hmmm |
| 22:19:22 | raptor | looks like you *can* set the owner of anything now... |
| 22:19:36 | bobdaduck | ANYTHING? |
| 22:19:48 | raptor | yep |
| 22:19:48 | bobdaduck | First thing I try will be setting ownership of flags. |
| 22:19:54 | raptor | which may be a bad thing... |
| 22:20:02 | bobdaduck | xD |
| 22:20:06 | bobdaduck | I bet someone could use it well. |
| 22:20:12 | bobdaduck | maybe. |
| 22:21:27 | bobdaduck | anyway |
| 22:21:29 | | fordcars Quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds) |
| 22:21:29 | bobdaduck | exploits? |
| 22:21:47 | raptor | ok |
| 22:35:34 | raptor | looks it to me: http://imagebin.org/268867 |
| 22:35:45 | bobdaduck | raptor: The center one isn't invisible. |
| 22:35:51 | raptor | you may have found a weird bug in 018a.. |
| 22:36:04 | bobdaduck | Somehow I seem to be able to pull out a duplicate resource item from the center one |
| 22:36:18 | bobdaduck | I ranted about it a little bit this morning while everyone else was asleep |
| 22:36:22 | raptor | so I think you were getting 'phantom' client-side objects |
| 22:36:36 | raptor | that only happen when you host |
| 22:36:54 | raptor | becaue I never saw any of the problem watching you try and do stuff... |
| 22:36:55 | bobdaduck | but you can get one too? |
| 22:37:00 | raptor | nope |
| 22:37:04 | raptor | never could |
| 22:37:09 | bobdaduck | I saw you get one I thought |
| 22:37:18 | raptor | you saw me |
| 22:37:21 | raptor | but i didn't see me |
| 22:37:27 | bobdaduck | uh |
| 22:37:30 | bobdaduck | hum |
| 22:38:17 | bobdaduck | well |
| 22:38:19 | bobdaduck | STILL A BIG DEAL. |
| 22:38:44 | raptor | yes, i think so - if you could try it with 019, that'd be great |
| 22:38:50 | raptor | to see if the bug is still there |
| 22:39:04 | bobdaduck | okay but like |
| 22:39:10 | bobdaduck | bitbuild/latest is dead |
| 22:44:04 | raptor | boo |
| 22:44:17 | raptor | do you have one from last week? we haven't made that many changes.. |
| 22:45:00 | bobdaduck | nop |
