03:30:25 Skybax After I get a few more reviews I'll edit my maps
03:30:31 Skybax I have a few new ideas for them lol
03:30:36 raptor shhhh
03:30:45 raptor and good!
03:36:25 Skybax Why do we have to be anonymous, again? xD
03:37:14 raptor no reason really...  just to try it out on the first contest
03:39:21 Skybax I really wouldn't mind being public. I don't think any members of this community would have any issues delivering stinging criticism to me x)
03:41:15 sam686 maybe it may be a good idea to apply changes on revsion deabf7dbe699 to a contest server,  theres is a map on a contest that may help have less lag, with the changes on this revision
03:42:03 raptor i can do that sam686
03:42:17 sam686 ok
03:49:34 Skybax raptor when are you gonna write your revirews lol
03:49:42 raptor eventually...
03:49:46 raptor and piecemeal
03:51:11 raptor patch applied.. restarting server

20:22:43 Nothing_Much Hi everyone!
20:24:07 Nothing_Much Has everybody seen GameJolt yet? Because apparently there's "ad revenue" when you have a certain amount of players/downloads.
20:24:33 Nothing_Much Or.. page visits
20:25:35 Nothing_Much *ad revenue meaning you earn some bucks
20:35:25 vs73nx has joined
20:36:12 Nothing_Much Hey vs73nx
20:36:15 vs73nx hi
20:36:55 vs73nx was going to head off to the beach... if there wasnt gale force winds :D
20:37:15 vs73nx 
20:37:49 vs73nx yeah so how is everyone
20:38:06 Nothing_Much I'm alright
20:39:33 Nothing_Much I'm waiting for GameJolt to be looked at, I really would do it myself but GJ said that they discourage only friends and gamers from doing that, as it could get complicated.
20:39:55 Nothing_Much Because I just figured out that there's ad revenue
20:40:12 Nothing_Much For the amount of page visits and downloads on GameJolt
20:40:30 vs73nx hmm
20:40:57 vs73nx so does the devs get revenue or does gamejolt
20:41:34 vs73nx *  do^
20:42:05 Nothing_Much the devs
20:42:10 Nothing_Much it's ad revenue
20:42:43 vs73nx oh. ok
20:42:53 Nothing_Much the money could go to prizes after a contest on bitfighter once a year...
20:43:25 vs73nx would that mean ads in bifighter?
20:43:55 Watusimoto Nothing_Much: I have started a bitfighter profile on gamejolt, need to locate or make some graphics to finish it up
20:44:17 Nothing_Much vs73nx: oh no, it's ads on the gamejolt website
20:44:24 Nothing_Much bitfighter won't be touched afaik
20:44:27 vs73nx oh thats cool then
20:44:29 Nothing_Much only by the devs
20:44:29 Nothing_Much yeah
20:44:40 Nothing_Much Watusimoto: Sweet!
20:46:49 destroyerimo_ has joined

20:53:47 vs73nx does anyone know where the class folderManager is?
20:55:19 Nothing_Much foldermanager?
20:55:27 Nothing_Much is that a source thing?
20:56:02 vs73nx yes
20:56:40 Nothing_Much Watusimoto: Hope you're okay with me adding to your list of sites to update when there's a new release.. heh..
20:56:55 vs73nx its a class that manages writing and reading from folders in bitfigbhtrer
20:57:08 Nothing_Much ohh
21:00:34 Watusimoto sure
21:00:54 vs73nx Watusimoto: i found some xbox specific code in bitfighter :O
21:01:06 vs73nx FolderManager::findLevelFile
21:01:08 Watusimoto do a global search for foldermanager
21:01:16 Watusimoto looks like it's in config
21:01:25 Watusimoto .h/.cpp
21:01:26 vs73nx ok
21:01:32 Watusimoto global search is awesome!
21:02:01 Watusimoto vs73nx: there are a few xbox tidbits here and there, all from the days when the source was still called zap
21:02:18 vs73nx nice
21:02:28 Watusimoto some have been removed, but I've tried to save what I can
21:03:17 vs73nx id rather have BF ported to the PS3/4. not the xbox (i dislike xbox alot)
21:03:38 vs73nx but developing for the PS4/# cant be done
21:04:32 vs73nx ive never heard of a FOSS playstatoin game
21:04:42 vs73nx playstation^
21:09:21 vs73nx Watusimoto: im kinda stuck on this task... i know what i want to do, but not how to implement it.
21:09:27 vs73nx the url to my repo is here
21:09:29 vs73nx https://code.google.com/r/vs37nx-bitfighter-dev/
21:09:57 vs73nx all changes are in the repo
21:13:06 raptor has joined
21:13:06 ChanServ sets mode +o
21:14:02 raptor I did it - I started a Stars! game
21:14:44 raptor Also, can anyone tell my why this is a pointer?:   const Vector<Point> *DatabaseObject::getCollisionPoly() const
21:15:38 raptor there's like 30 usages of getCollisionPoly and all have to dereferencing/etc.  because it returns a pointer
21:19:56 Watusimoto what would it return?
21:20:12 Watusimoto if it returned a vector<point> it would have to be copied
21:20:17 raptor a reference?
21:20:18 Watusimoto by returning a pointer, you return a single val
21:20:30 Watusimoto we have no code that returns a reference
21:20:31 Nothing_Much yes raptor?
21:20:43 Watusimoto but I guess we could start!
21:20:45 raptor sure we do...  somewhere...
21:21:16 raptor the issue is that methods that directly use the geometry do things like this:
21:21:17 raptor void offsetPolygons(Vector<const Vector<Point> *> &inputPolys
21:21:25 raptor const Vector<Point> *
21:21:43 raptor which is weird when wanting to use it for more than just collision poly
21:21:50 raptor just something I noticed..
21:22:34 raptor Nothing_Much: oh, nothing - just saying i was headed back here
21:22:48 Nothing_Much oh, np
21:23:58 koda Quit (Quit: koda)
21:24:50 Watusimoto vs73nx: where are you stuck?
21:27:36 vs73nx ive intercepted the command line arg -useplaylist nut im stuck on the process of scanning a file for the levels
21:29:42 vs73nx so ive got the command line args parsing down pat but not the actuall file playlist reading
21:30:19 Watusimoto so you are stuck on the mechanics of how to read a file?
21:33:00 vs73nx yes
21:33:02 Watusimoto in stringUtils, we have this: string readFile()
21:33:13 Watusimoto pass it a path, it returns the file contents
21:34:28 Watusimoto then see Game::loadLevelFromString for an example of how to parse the file, line by line
21:35:27 Watusimoto then in stringUtils again, we have this: fileExists() to test if a file actually exists or not
21:36:51 vs73nx ok got it
21:39:06 vs73nx Watusimoto: should i use a c style FILE* or c++ style ifstream?
21:39:28 Watusimoto well...
21:39:41 Watusimoto if you as me, I'd say go old school
21:39:52 Watusimoto if you ask kaen, he'd probably say go with streams
21:40:36 Watusimoto however, you probably don't need to worry because you can use the functions we've already created -- I don't think you'll need to be reading any files directly
21:41:44 Watusimoto raptor: did you get the tests to compile last night?
21:41:52 Watusimoto and did you verify the failures I pointed out?
21:42:08 vs73nx would i parse the file and line by line check if theres a path. and if there is a path would i call the functions to find the file?
21:42:26 Watusimoto read the file with the first fn I pointed out
21:42:48 Watusimoto parse the results using the code sample I showed you -- that will give you a series of lines
21:43:01 Watusimoto then use the 3rd functino to verify that each line points to a file that exists
21:43:20 Watusimoto perhaps verify that the line ends in the string ".level"
21:43:40 vs73nx oh ok
21:43:47 Watusimoto so it's actually pretty easy
21:44:02 vs73nx so does readFile() return a string?
21:44:10 Watusimoto save the hits, do a logprintf(LogConsumer::something) with the misses, and discard them
21:44:19 vs73nx oh ok
21:44:29 Watusimoto yes
21:44:32 Watusimoto look at it
21:44:45 Watusimoto it's pretty straightforward
21:46:17 vs73nx ok it is... thanks
21:51:20 raptor Watusimoto: yes got them to compile
21:51:30 raptor failed in the same places you mentioned'
21:52:29 Watusimoto no idea why they started failing
21:52:45 Watusimoto unfortunately, they seem to involve advanced dark arts (aka tnl0
21:53:39 raptor hmm
21:54:35 Watusimoto like that first one...
21:54:53 Watusimoto Instantiate and transmit one object of every registered type from a server to
21:54:53 Watusimoto * a client.
21:55:06 Watusimoto why should they all work except robot
21:55:22 Watusimoto something broke in robots client-server thing
21:55:25 Watusimoto weird
21:55:37 Watusimoto I'll poke around a bit, then I may resort to a bisect
21:56:08 Watusimoto my house is cold... I could use the extra heat that a dozen or so recompiles will bring
21:56:50 raptor broke since 019?
21:57:24 Watusimoto since I did my robot manager
21:57:35 Watusimoto I don't think it's related, since I did nothing with robots
21:57:41 Watusimoto but from around that time period
21:57:50 raptor oh so that
21:57:58 raptor 'll be like 8 compiles
21:58:30 Watusimoto actually, I can probably eliminate my 40 someodd commits (will test of course) and there weren't that many before or after
21:58:59 raptor hopes he's not the culprit
22:01:21 Watusimoto we're all hoping that!

22:22:18 Nothing_Much later vs73nx
22:28:41 Watusimoto enjoy!
22:28:50 Watusimoto 8999 works, 9002 is broken
22:31:24 Watusimoto 9002 was a biiig commit
22:32:53 raptor 9002 for me was tiny - what is the changeset id?
22:35:40 Watusimoto 1047dcab338c
22:35:47 Watusimoto maybe medium size
22:36:05 Watusimoto it looked bigger at first
22:36:16 raptor i see that as 8970
22:36:42 raptor oh interesting...  yeah I had asked sam686 about that revision
22:36:58 raptor he said it significanly improves client-side prediction
22:38:14 raptor hmm..  looks like he made idle changes, too
22:38:38 Watusimoto will go file by file

22:46:56 Darrel has joined
22:49:52 Nothing_Much raptor: that's an oldie comment :D
22:53:53 Watusimoto the problem is in the controlObjectConnection.cpp changes
22:55:28 raptor move states are a lot different now...  honestly I don't know how sam686 kept compatibility..
22:55:48 raptor probably just because I don't understand...
23:01:41 Watusimoto I thnk it is this line in addPendingmove()
23:01:42 Watusimoto if(controlObject.isNull())
23:01:42 Watusimoto return;
23:01:58 Watusimoto maybe the test takes a shortcut?
23:10:09 Watusimoto I think I understand the issue; it's not serious; need to figure out how to fix the test

03:30:25	Skybax	After I get a few more reviews I'll edit my maps
03:30:31	Skybax	I have a few new ideas for them lol
03:30:36	raptor	shhhh
03:30:45	raptor	and good!
03:36:25	Skybax	Why do we have to be anonymous, again? xD
03:37:14	raptor	no reason really... just to try it out on the first contest
03:39:21	Skybax	I really wouldn't mind being public. I don't think any members of this community would have any issues delivering stinging criticism to me x)
03:41:15	sam686	maybe it may be a good idea to apply changes on revsion deabf7dbe699 to a contest server, theres is a map on a contest that may help have less lag, with the changes on this revision
03:42:03	raptor	i can do that sam686
03:42:17	sam686	ok
03:49:34	Skybax	raptor when are you gonna write your revirews lol
03:49:42	raptor	eventually...
03:49:46	raptor	and piecemeal
03:51:11	raptor	patch applied.. restarting server

20:22:43	Nothing_Much	Hi everyone!
20:24:07	Nothing_Much	Has everybody seen GameJolt yet? Because apparently there's "ad revenue" when you have a certain amount of players/downloads.
20:24:33	Nothing_Much	Or.. page visits
20:25:35	Nothing_Much	*ad revenue meaning you earn some bucks

20:36:15	vs73nx	hi
20:36:55	vs73nx	was going to head off to the beach... if there wasnt gale force winds :D
20:37:15	vs73nx
20:37:49	vs73nx	yeah so how is everyone
20:38:06	Nothing_Much	I'm alright
20:39:33	Nothing_Much	I'm waiting for GameJolt to be looked at, I really would do it myself but GJ said that they discourage only friends and gamers from doing that, as it could get complicated.
20:39:55	Nothing_Much	Because I just figured out that there's ad revenue
20:40:12	Nothing_Much	For the amount of page visits and downloads on GameJolt
20:40:30	vs73nx	hmm
20:40:57	vs73nx	so does the devs get revenue or does gamejolt
20:41:34	vs73nx	* do^
20:42:05	Nothing_Much	the devs
20:42:10	Nothing_Much	it's ad revenue
20:42:43	vs73nx	oh. ok
20:42:53	Nothing_Much	the money could go to prizes after a contest on bitfighter once a year...
20:43:25	vs73nx	would that mean ads in bifighter?
20:43:55	Watusimoto	Nothing_Much: I have started a bitfighter profile on gamejolt, need to locate or make some graphics to finish it up
20:44:17	Nothing_Much	vs73nx: oh no, it's ads on the gamejolt website
20:44:24	Nothing_Much	bitfighter won't be touched afaik
20:44:27	vs73nx	oh thats cool then
20:44:29	Nothing_Much	only by the devs
20:44:29	Nothing_Much	yeah

20:55:27	Nothing_Much	is that a source thing?
20:56:02	vs73nx	yes
20:56:40	Nothing_Much	Watusimoto: Hope you're okay with me adding to your list of sites to update when there's a new release.. heh..
20:56:55	vs73nx	its a class that manages writing and reading from folders in bitfigbhtrer
20:57:08	Nothing_Much	ohh
21:00:34	Watusimoto	sure
21:00:54	vs73nx	Watusimoto: i found some xbox specific code in bitfighter :O
21:01:06	vs73nx	FolderManager::findLevelFile
21:01:08	Watusimoto	do a global search for foldermanager
21:01:16	Watusimoto	looks like it's in config
21:01:25	Watusimoto	.h/.cpp
21:01:26	vs73nx	ok
21:01:32	Watusimoto	global search is awesome!
21:02:01	Watusimoto	vs73nx: there are a few xbox tidbits here and there, all from the days when the source was still called zap
21:02:18	vs73nx	nice
21:02:28	Watusimoto	some have been removed, but I've tried to save what I can
21:03:17	vs73nx	id rather have BF ported to the PS3/4. not the xbox (i dislike xbox alot)
21:03:38	vs73nx	but developing for the PS4/# cant be done
21:04:32	vs73nx	ive never heard of a FOSS playstatoin game
21:04:42	vs73nx	playstation^
21:09:21	vs73nx	Watusimoto: im kinda stuck on this task... i know what i want to do, but not how to implement it.
21:09:27	vs73nx	the url to my repo is here

21:14:02	raptor	I did it - I started a Stars! game
21:14:44	raptor	Also, can anyone tell my why this is a pointer?: const Vector<Point> *DatabaseObject::getCollisionPoly() const
21:15:38	raptor	there's like 30 usages of getCollisionPoly and all have to dereferencing/etc. because it returns a pointer
21:19:56	Watusimoto	what would it return?
21:20:12	Watusimoto	if it returned a vector<point> it would have to be copied
21:20:17	raptor	a reference?
21:20:18	Watusimoto	by returning a pointer, you return a single val
21:20:30	Watusimoto	we have no code that returns a reference
21:20:31	Nothing_Much	yes raptor?
21:20:43	Watusimoto	but I guess we could start!
21:20:45	raptor	sure we do... somewhere...
21:21:16	raptor	the issue is that methods that directly use the geometry do things like this:
21:21:17	raptor	void offsetPolygons(Vector<const Vector<Point> *> &inputPolys
21:21:25	raptor	const Vector<Point> *
21:21:43	raptor	which is weird when wanting to use it for more than just collision poly
21:21:50	raptor	just something I noticed..
21:22:34	raptor	Nothing_Much: oh, nothing - just saying i was headed back here
21:22:48	Nothing_Much	oh, np
21:23:58		koda Quit (Quit: koda)
21:24:50	Watusimoto	vs73nx: where are you stuck?
21:27:36	vs73nx	ive intercepted the command line arg -useplaylist nut im stuck on the process of scanning a file for the levels
21:29:42	vs73nx	so ive got the command line args parsing down pat but not the actuall file playlist reading
21:30:19	Watusimoto	so you are stuck on the mechanics of how to read a file?
21:33:00	vs73nx	yes
21:33:02	Watusimoto	in stringUtils, we have this: string readFile()
21:33:13	Watusimoto	pass it a path, it returns the file contents
21:34:28	Watusimoto	then see Game::loadLevelFromString for an example of how to parse the file, line by line
21:35:27	Watusimoto	then in stringUtils again, we have this: fileExists() to test if a file actually exists or not
21:36:51	vs73nx	ok got it
21:39:06	vs73nx	Watusimoto: should i use a c style FILE* or c++ style ifstream?
21:39:28	Watusimoto	well...
21:39:41	Watusimoto	if you as me, I'd say go old school
21:39:52	Watusimoto	if you ask kaen, he'd probably say go with streams
21:40:36	Watusimoto	however, you probably don't need to worry because you can use the functions we've already created -- I don't think you'll need to be reading any files directly
21:41:44	Watusimoto	raptor: did you get the tests to compile last night?
21:41:52	Watusimoto	and did you verify the failures I pointed out?
21:42:08	vs73nx	would i parse the file and line by line check if theres a path. and if there is a path would i call the functions to find the file?
21:42:26	Watusimoto	read the file with the first fn I pointed out
21:42:48	Watusimoto	parse the results using the code sample I showed you -- that will give you a series of lines
21:43:01	Watusimoto	then use the 3rd functino to verify that each line points to a file that exists
21:43:20	Watusimoto	perhaps verify that the line ends in the string ".level"
21:43:40	vs73nx	oh ok
21:43:47	Watusimoto	so it's actually pretty easy
21:44:02	vs73nx	so does readFile() return a string?
21:44:10	Watusimoto	save the hits, do a logprintf(LogConsumer::something) with the misses, and discard them
21:44:19	vs73nx	oh ok
21:44:29	Watusimoto	yes
21:44:32	Watusimoto	look at it
21:44:45	Watusimoto	it's pretty straightforward
21:46:17	vs73nx	ok it is... thanks
21:51:20	raptor	Watusimoto: yes got them to compile
21:51:30	raptor	failed in the same places you mentioned'
21:52:29	Watusimoto	no idea why they started failing
21:52:45	Watusimoto	unfortunately, they seem to involve advanced dark arts (aka tnl0
21:53:39	raptor	hmm
21:54:35	Watusimoto	like that first one...
21:54:53	Watusimoto	Instantiate and transmit one object of every registered type from a server to
21:54:53	Watusimoto	* a client.
21:55:06	Watusimoto	why should they all work except robot
21:55:22	Watusimoto	something broke in robots client-server thing
21:55:25	Watusimoto	weird
21:55:37	Watusimoto	I'll poke around a bit, then I may resort to a bisect
21:56:08	Watusimoto	my house is cold... I could use the extra heat that a dozen or so recompiles will bring
21:56:50	raptor	broke since 019?
21:57:24	Watusimoto	since I did my robot manager
21:57:35	Watusimoto	I don't think it's related, since I did nothing with robots
21:57:41	Watusimoto	but from around that time period
21:57:50	raptor	oh so that
21:57:58	raptor	'll be like 8 compiles
21:58:30	Watusimoto	actually, I can probably eliminate my 40 someodd commits (will test of course) and there weren't that many before or after
21:58:59		raptor hopes he's not the culprit
22:01:21	Watusimoto	we're all hoping that!

22:35:40	Watusimoto	1047dcab338c
22:35:47	Watusimoto	maybe medium size
22:36:05	Watusimoto	it looked bigger at first
22:36:16	raptor	i see that as 8970
22:36:42	raptor	oh interesting... yeah I had asked sam686 about that revision
22:36:58	raptor	he said it significanly improves client-side prediction

22:49:52	Nothing_Much	raptor: that's an oldie comment :D
22:53:53	Watusimoto	the problem is in the controlObjectConnection.cpp changes
22:55:28	raptor	move states are a lot different now... honestly I don't know how sam686 kept compatibility..
22:55:48	raptor	probably just because I don't understand...
23:01:41	Watusimoto	I thnk it is this line in addPendingmove()
23:01:42	Watusimoto	if(controlObject.isNull())
23:01:42	Watusimoto	return;
23:01:58	Watusimoto	maybe the test takes a shortcut?
23:10:09	Watusimoto	I think I understand the issue; it's not serious; need to figure out how to fix the test
