| 16:13:52 | raptor | morning |
| 16:14:21 | Watusimoto | hi |
| 16:16:43 | raptor | I did some work on trying to figure out the twitter API |
| 16:17:08 | raptor | not too difficult, actually |
| 16:19:23 | Watusimoto | I shouldn't think so... there's really nothing to do |
| 16:19:30 | Watusimoto | only need one command: |
| 16:19:41 | Watusimoto | twitter->sendIdiotRemark(blah) |
| 16:19:54 | raptor | the trick is how to get the web-php to spawn a singleinstance process |
| 16:20:44 | raptor | which I'll work on right after I finish my stars! turn.. |
| 16:20:57 | raptor | oh wow, you made a lot of commits again... |
| 16:21:55 | Watusimoto | all crap |
| 16:22:06 | | BFLogBot Commit: 0d78261e3965 | Author: watusimoto | Message: Once more into the breach... |
| 16:22:25 | Watusimoto | a lot of them stem from the fact that the master hardcodes the INI keys it will read |
| 16:22:38 | raptor | oh levely |
| 16:22:40 | raptor | lovely |
| 16:22:43 | Watusimoto | and I didn't realize that and I couln't figure out why the INI settings weren't being read |
| 16:22:59 | Watusimoto | and I was unsure which INI we were using, and all sorts of fun frustration |
| 16:23:13 | Watusimoto | I will fix that when I get the current stuff working |
| 16:23:24 | raptor | I had rudimentally converted it to an INI from that old cfg file |
| 16:23:30 | raptor | master.ini in the master/ directory |
| 16:23:55 | raptor | but that was before you neat Setting refactor |
| 16:24:40 | | BFLogBot Commit: 347aeb153fe0 | Author: watusimoto | Message: I feel like an idiot! |
| 16:24:50 | Watusimoto | the INI works fine, except for the hardcoded keys |
| 16:25:07 | | LordDVG Quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds) |
| 16:25:09 | raptor | master is so messy... |
| 16:25:30 | raptor | every time I change something on it, 3/4 of the changes I make are for cleaning/refactoring purposes |
| 16:27:05 | Watusimoto | finally, an error I didn't cause! |
| 16:27:30 | Watusimoto | getting a Socket not writable error on port 80 |
| 16:27:38 | raptor | haha |
| 16:27:48 | raptor | because httpd is already listening... |
| 16:29:57 | Watusimoto | but curl can send on that port |
| 16:30:30 | raptor | curl doesn't usually open a port 80 to do its work |
| 16:31:06 | raptor | sent *to* that port, you mean? that would be different than sending from that port |
| 16:34:30 | Watusimoto | sorry |
| 16:34:47 | Watusimoto | we are sending to that port on a remote machine |
| 16:35:04 | Watusimoto | using http |
| 16:35:05 | raptor | ahh, i get it now |
| 16:35:41 | Watusimoto | using HttpRequest::send() |
| 16:36:09 | Watusimoto | Luckily, I did a quick refactor to provide error messages with that so we can find out why it fails when it does |
| 16:36:28 | Watusimoto | never thought i would need it :-) |

| 18:50:39 | Watusimoto | hi! |
| 18:50:51 | Watusimoto | raptor: what happenes do defunct processes? |
| 18:51:19 | raptor | the handle just sits there until the parent process is ended |
| 18:51:33 | raptor | so there's like a dozen of them right now |
| 18:51:43 | Ace__ | I noticed that there's a new release, is the AI a lot better now? |
| 18:51:47 | raptor | 20 |
| 18:51:48 | Watusimoto | oh, well, then there'll be more |
| 18:51:49 | raptor | of them |
| 18:51:51 | raptor | now |
| 18:52:08 | raptor | all zombies |
| 18:52:08 | Watusimoto | hi Ace__ -- the bots have been gradually improving |
| 18:52:18 | Watusimoto | raptor: yes, that would be what I would expect |
| 18:52:29 | Watusimoto | I'll find a way to resolve the issue |
| 18:52:40 | Watusimoto | (probably by getting rid of curl) |
| 18:52:49 | raptor | ok |
| 18:53:08 | Watusimoto | Ace__: we have a bot that uses more weapons, and is really quite deadly |
| 18:53:36 | Watusimoto | unforntulatenly, the attack improvemens came with a mysterios degredation in the bot's ability to do anything else, so we haven't published it |
| 18:53:55 | Ace__ | Ah, I see |
| 18:54:08 | Ace__ | Unfortunately, I know nothing of AI programming :( |

| 18:57:06 | raptor | 1! |
| 18:57:21 | Watusimoto | see? i told you I'd fix it! |
| 18:57:28 | raptor | great |
| 18:57:40 | raptor | should i expect it to grow, but slower now? |
| 18:57:53 | raptor | 2 |
| 18:59:26 | Watusimoto | yeah don't worry about it |
| 18:59:29 | Watusimoto | Defunct processes are not using any resources and it isn't really unusual to have one or two hanging around. You should only be concerned if you see dozens as it is usually a sign something is going terribly wrong. |
| 18:59:40 | Watusimoto | see... so only 2, no problem |
| 19:00:14 | raptor | sounds like you copy/pasted that... |
| 19:00:36 | Watusimoto | I did |
| 19:01:01 | Watusimoto | only 6 now... that's hardly any at all |
| 19:01:51 | Watusimoto | only 6 now... that's hardly any at all |
| 19:02:21 | raptor | sounds like the forking isn't working.. |
| 19:02:30 | raptor | or isn't cleaning itself properly |

| 19:03:31 | raptor | https://stackoverflow.com/a/7061406 |
| 19:03:49 | Watusimoto | fork is clearly working, because otherwise we'd hae dozens of master servers |
| 19:04:23 | Watusimoto | wait()? |
| 19:05:07 | raptor | yeah, call wait() after fork()... |
| 19:05:13 | raptor | but i'm not sure if it is blocking... |
| 19:07:31 | Watusimoto | I think wait() kills synchronicity |

| 19:08:33 | sam686 | the only real problem with fork() is in vps, it counts as taking up lots of memory. On real non-vps, fork may share read-only memory until it copies on write. |
| 19:09:13 | raptor | synchronicity? that sounds like it comes from here: http://cbsg.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/live |
| 19:09:51 | Watusimoto | from here: |

| 19:11:15 | raptor | oh man - that takes me back to accidentally entering my older sisters room and thinking the music she listened to was really weird |
| 19:11:23 | Watusimoto | ok, I have to go |
| 19:12:31 | raptor | ok |
| 19:13:00 | Watusimoto | I will replace curl with something else, and see if that works |
| 19:13:14 | raptor | i think the issue isn't curl |
| 19:13:21 | raptor | rather how you're using fork() |
| 19:13:43 | Watusimoto | I think it might be execl |
| 19:13:55 | Watusimoto | I can probably replace that, but fork would be more difficult |
| 19:14:11 | Watusimoto | But I do acknowledge there is a problem to be resolved. |
| 19:14:16 | Watusimoto | ok, back in a couple of hours |
| 19:16:54 | raptor | ok bye |
| 19:21:39 | | Invisible2 has joined |
| 19:41:52 | sam686 | there is a difference between threads and fork(). Fork is kindof like running the same program again, but with most data copied. As with separate process, it can make it hard to sync data between 2 copies of same program. |
| 19:43:31 | | Ace__ Quit (Quit: Page closed) |
| 19:44:56 | sam686 | a second thread can easily share nearly all data as other threads, but be careful as some functions (opengl and networking part of TNL) can only run on a specific thread. |
| 19:45:23 | sam686 | http/curl is fine as it is not part of TNL though.. |

| 22:14:32 | | Watusimoto has joined |
| 22:14:51 | Watusimoto | hi |
| 22:15:52 | Watusimoto | sam686: what I am trying to do with curl is basically this, in the commented code |
| 22:15:52 | Watusimoto | //request.setUrl(url); |
| 22:15:53 | Watusimoto | //if(!request.send()) |
| 22:15:53 | Watusimoto | // logprintf(LogConsumer::LogError, "Error sending GameJolt request! (msg=%s, url=%s)", |
| 22:15:53 | Watusimoto | // request.getError().c_str(), url.c_str()); |
| 22:16:09 | Watusimoto | where request is this: HttpRequest request; |
| 22:16:42 | Watusimoto | The probem is that httpRequest won't send. |
| 22:17:00 | Watusimoto | I wonder if I should try to repackage this into a thread instead of a different process |
| 22:18:23 | raptor | a thread would be good - even if it was to call another process |
| 22:18:35 | raptor | that way you could call wait() after fork() in the thread and not worry |
| 22:18:57 | Watusimoto | yes, maybe that would work |
| 22:19:36 | sam686 | master already have a second thread, for master database lookup that some lookups can be slow, like high scores.. |
| 22:19:37 | raptor | maybe even create a general ProcessLauncherThread for it |
| 22:20:10 | sam686 | that way, even if the second thread pauses for a few seconds, it won't interrupt the primary thread |
| 22:20:34 | sam686 | same for server saving game reports ... remember the '2 second freeze' everytime game ends? |
| 22:20:39 | raptor | only 5 people have voted for the best map! |
| 22:20:51 | sam686 | fixed by having it save in a second thread though |
| 22:21:31 | Watusimoto | I thought all the database stuff went in a different thread alreay |
| 22:21:38 | Watusimoto | ah, yes, fixed |
| 22:21:40 | sam686 | it is, yes |
| 22:21:40 | Watusimoto | ok |
| 22:21:57 | Watusimoto | I agree that this can't run in the main thread |
| 22:26:43 | sam686 | missing req.setMethod(HttpRequest::GetMethod); ? |
| 22:27:02 | raptor | Watusimoto: tweeter is working now |
| 22:27:18 | Watusimoto | how does it work, and what does it do |
| 22:27:22 | raptor | see this: https://twitter.com/playbitfighter |
| 22:27:49 | Watusimoto | that comes from the motd? |
| 22:27:49 | raptor | the motd submit form will call a single-instace process that can update any sites we want |
| 22:27:51 | raptor | yes |
| 22:27:56 | raptor | so: |
| 22:28:32 | raptor | submit motd -> fork process that guarantees single-instance -> wait 60 seconds -> read motd file -> update external web sites |
| 22:28:44 | raptor | the 60 second wait is in case you want to make a quick change |
| 22:28:45 | Watusimoto | nice |
| 22:29:12 | Watusimoto | so if you update during your 60sec window, does the clock restart? |
| 22:29:18 | raptor | not at the moment |
| 22:29:31 | raptor | I'm trying to consider ways how to do it, though... |
| 22:29:35 | Watusimoto | maybe this: |
| 22:30:06 | sam686 | ... i hope it doesn't submit on master restart |
| 22:30:12 | Watusimoto | submit motd -> fork process that guarantees single-instance ->read motd-> wait 60 seconds -> read motd again->if change go back, otherwise ->update |
| 22:30:16 | raptor | sam686: it doesn't |
| 22:30:43 | sam686 | and as with fork() it might be possible for one process to die and the other to stay alive? |
| 22:30:47 | raptor | Watusimoto: that's a good idea, and i don't need to mess with multiple processes |
| 22:31:10 | Watusimoto | it's not the perfect behavior, but it is close enough, and should be easy to code |
| 22:31:49 | Watusimoto | maybe we need another feed alerting when players join |
| 22:32:12 | raptor | oh man that would be noisy |
| 22:32:19 | Watusimoto | yes, but that |
| 22:32:24 | Watusimoto | 't twitter for you |
| 22:32:32 | Watusimoto | I wouldn't subscribe |
| 22:32:40 | raptor | now would i... |

| 22:39:12 | Watusimoto | do you guys have any objection to fork besides the zombie children? |
| 22:44:25 | raptor | no objection besides zombie |
| 22:44:33 | raptor | amginea, bug is fixed |
| 22:44:46 | Watusimoto | ok, I can fix zombies easily, I think |

| 22:53:39 | Watusimoto | yes! |

| 23:14:50 | Watusimoto | I just need to figure out a way to test the achievement integration |
| 23:15:13 | Watusimoto | (I think I'll hack my server to give me an award) |
| 23:15:50 | Watusimoto | now I want to find other platforms to expand this to! |
| 23:16:32 | Watusimoto | any of you guys play Bitfighter with "ObsidianSkin"? |
| 23:16:45 | Watusimoto | he remembers raptor and little apple |
| 23:17:20 | | Flynnn Quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep) |
| 23:23:23 | | Flynnn has joined |
| 23:24:48 | Watusimoto | do we have any concise description of the achievements currently? |
| 23:25:39 | sam686 | I go with whatever the instruction (page 10/17) says |
| 23:26:36 | sam686 | well, maybe ignore the developer one, can't get that from in-game |
| 23:27:00 | sam686 | thinking of that, not sure if its possible to hack a server to give people a 'developer' badge... |
| 23:28:07 | sam686 | all other badges can be get from in-game, just not developer/BBB metal. |
| 23:31:03 | Watusimoto | perfect, that is just what I was looking for |
| 23:31:07 | Watusimoto | but could not find |
| 23:32:29 | Watusimoto | so the raging rabbit -- you have the carrot and you kill others, right? |
| 23:33:06 | Watusimoto | yes, rabbit does the killing |
| 23:33:29 | sam686 | don't know, probably yes, I havne't gotten raging rabit |
| 23:33:49 | Watusimoto | yes, checked the code |
| 23:33:58 | sam686 | All I have is zone controller and 25 flags (and bbb + developer) |
| 23:40:00 | sam686 | http://bitfighter.org/stats/stats.php?order=win_count&sort=DESC&page=1&authed=yes&alltime=yes |
| 23:40:11 | sam686 | im not seeing anyone with raging rabbit and hat trick |
| 23:40:18 | sam686 | maybe it could use a little update... |
| 23:43:02 | | Nothing_Much Quit (Remote host closed the connection) |
| 23:43:14 | Watusimoto | so here are the achievements I added on gamejolt |
| 23:43:15 | Watusimoto | http://awesomescreenshot.com/05726zb6d2 |
| 23:43:31 | Watusimoto | I had to organize them into bronze/silver/gold/platinum |
| 23:44:00 | Watusimoto | I want some feedback on whether I categorized them correctly based on difficulty |
| 23:44:05 | Watusimoto | because, really, I don't know |
| 23:44:57 | sam686 | developer trothy not exactly part of the game, and BBB requires waiting for that event.. |
| 23:45:33 | Watusimoto | yes |
| 23:48:59 | raptor | we don't have a first victory badge |
| 23:49:52 | sam686 | I think I would not do developers trothy as its kindof not part of the game... Any open source programs could have it, but don't really make sense to have it as a trothy.. |
| 23:49:57 | raptor | i'd put ZC as gold and Last-second-win as platinum |
| 23:51:21 | sam686 | 'developer' is not unique to this game.. |
| 23:52:00 | raptor | developer badge doesn't really fit, i think, too |
| 23:53:00 | raptor | maybe shift all the BBB badges up... even thought the names don't match the category |
| 23:54:17 | sam686 | BBB bronze/silver/gold... I wonder how to get all 3 if getting gold does not get silver.. |
| 23:54:32 | Watusimoto | we don't have first victory? it's in our enum |
| 23:54:48 | sam686 | http://bitfighter.org/stats/player.php?player=sam686&alltime=yes It shows me as gold "B" and green "B" |
| 23:54:49 | raptor | no game logic for it, or drawn badge... |
| 23:55:05 | Watusimoto | ok, I see |
| 23:55:06 | sam686 | oh and what does green 'B' mean? it doesn't say it on the instruction (page 10/17) |
| 23:55:20 | Watusimoto | so I have a new idea for display of badges |
| 23:55:39 | Watusimoto | categrorize each like game jolt does, into gold, silver bronze tiers |
| 23:55:47 | Watusimoto | then display just badge counts in game |
| 23:56:00 | Watusimoto | and have a web page that shows full badge info |
| 23:56:09 | Watusimoto | perhaps in forum profile or something |
| 23:56:48 | Watusimoto | I think getting gold replaces silver |
| 23:57:01 | Watusimoto | so once you get BBB gold, you no longer have silver |
| 23:57:45 | Watusimoto | though on gamejolt there is no revoiking medals, so there, you could get all if you went in order; bronze, silver, gold |
| 23:59:05 | Watusimoto | I'm renaming the BBB medals on game jolt to 3rd place, 2nd place, and 1st place so when I moave them up they don't seem so weird |
