| 00:11.12 | BulletCatcher | Just be sure to stand back far enough, or the GM won't activate in time. |

| 00:13.28 | MindstormsKid | question, why does GM have to activate? |
| 00:13.41 | blast007 | it was a workaround for a bug |
| 00:13.42 | BulletCatcher | To keep from blowing yourself up. |
| 00:13.58 | blast007 | yeah, that bug ;) |
| 00:14.31 | blast007 | also weakens the flag a bit, which is a nice side effect |
| 00:14.31 | MindstormsKid | or, why does it kill you it activate immediately? |
| 00:14.49 | blast007 | MindstormsKid: because it was buggy |
| 00:15.01 | MindstormsKid | oooOoooO |
| 00:15.03 | BulletCatcher | If you are moving forward you could run into the missile you just fired. |
| 00:15.11 | Ebert | i bumping into tanks with gm, they keep shootin |
| 00:15.14 | blast007 | if you want to put in a proper fix, patches welcome ;) |
| 00:15.49 | BulletCatcher | I like it the way it is. It is fun to get really close to a newbie with a GM and have them not be able to kill you. |
| 00:16.00 | Ebert | i had someone report me for "using an aimbot" because i was shooting accurately with few bullets :p |
| 00:16.15 | blast007 | heh.. |
| 00:16.18 | BulletCatcher | Unfair wetware! |
| 00:16.25 | blast007 | BulletCatcher: yeah, I like it the way it is too |
| 00:16.26 | MindstormsKid | ooohhh... is GM speed not affected by the firing tank's speed? |
| 00:16.31 | Ebert | its a new one for me, i dont thing "aimbots" really exist in bz do they? or not normally |
| 00:16.32 | blast007 | nope |
| 00:16.41 | MindstormsKid | o |
| 00:16.46 | MindstormsKid | *oh |
| 00:17.02 | MindstormsKid | then why doesn't it act like normal shots? :P |
| 00:17.06 | Ebert | unless you adjusted the bullet size or kill zone |
| 00:17.28 | MindstormsKid | ... or was blast talking to Ebert? >_> |
| 00:17.35 | Ebert | no, im shutting up |
| 00:17.40 | blast007 | no, I was replying to you |
| 00:17.42 | MindstormsKid | oh |
| 00:17.45 | MindstormsKid | :P |
| 00:17.48 | blast007 | MindstormsKid: with other bullets, you can't kill yourself with the shot until they rico or teleport |
| 00:18.09 | blast007 | but that's not the case with GM, because it uses a different system (it changes path without a rico or teleporter) |
| 00:18.22 | BulletCatcher | There was a map with *really* slow bullets. It was easy to fire and then run into your own. |
| 00:18.41 | blast007 | hmm |
| 00:18.50 | blast007 | or maybe you can shoot yourself with the first segment? |
| 00:19.19 | blast007 | maybe the GM code just sucks then ;) |
| 00:19.52 | MindstormsKid | would help, but he doesn't know C or whatever BZFlag is coded in |
| 00:20.00 | BulletCatcher | We like it the way it is. Therefore, it doesn't suck. |
| 00:20.19 | Ebert | yea thats how no changes happen bullet :) |
| 00:20.20 | blast007 | BulletCatcher: I mean the code that allowed it to kill yourself |
| 00:20.30 | blast007 | if you set the delay to 0, it will still have that problem |
| 00:20.33 | blast007 | so the current code sucks |
| 00:20.33 | MindstormsKid | you could fix the code but keep in the delay :P |
| 00:21.37 | BulletCatcher | I suppose a "proper" fix would be to have the GM's initial velocity affected by the tank's motion, just like other shots. |
| 00:22.10 | MindstormsKid | so it isn't? |
| 00:22.14 | BulletCatcher | Then you could extend the range by driving forward, the way we did with SB on Missile Wars 1. |
| 00:22.26 | MindstormsKid | then why did blast say it is? >_> |
| 00:23.42 | BulletCatcher | He said "nope" about that. |
| 00:24.41 | MindstormsKid | wait |
| 00:25.07 | MindstormsKid | was he saying "nope" to my question or agreeing with me? :P |
| 00:25.28 | BulletCatcher | He was agreeing with you. |
| 00:25.45 | MindstormsKid | oh |
| 00:25.47 | MindstormsKid | :P |
| 00:25.53 | MindstormsKid | fails |
| 00:25.57 | BulletCatcher | lol |
| 00:30.10 | blast007 | BulletCatcher: actually a proper fix would be to make the code smart enough to know that the missile hasn't teleported or come around full circle ;) |
| 00:33.42 | javawizard2539 | blast007, BulletCatcher: There could be two separate vars, _gmActivateTime (or whatever it is), and _gmSelfActivateTime |
| 00:33.54 | javawizard2539 | _gmActivateTime is used for everyone else, and _gmSelfActivateTime is used for just you |
| 00:34.09 | MindstormsKid | doesn't like the sound of that |
| 00:34.37 | javawizard2539 | That way, servers could preserve their current functionality of activation time, while other servers could stop people from killing themselves while having no activation time for opponents |
| 00:34.40 | javawizard2539 | MindstormsKid: why? |
| 00:34.48 | blast007 | We need a Cow Launcher flag |
| 00:35.14 | blast007 | maybe it could be called Cow Cannon |
| 00:35.23 | javawizard2539 | blast007: Was that you who initially suggested it on the flag request page on the wiki? |
| 00:35.23 | MindstormsKid | no idea, just doesn't seem like it would work |
| 00:35.32 | MindstormsKid | blast007: XD |
| 00:35.36 | blast007 | or Ballistic Bovine |
| 00:35.46 | blast007 | javawizard2539: what, the cow launcher? |
| 00:35.48 | blast007 | no |
| 00:35.49 | javawizard2539 | Yes |
| 00:35.54 | MindstormsKid | we need a flamethrower flag |
| 00:36.03 | javawizard2539 | Someone suggested it, and it got rejected because "it serves no practical purpose" |
| 00:36.20 | javawizard2539 | besides entertainment, of course, which is what bzflag is all about anyway :) |
| 00:36.27 | MindstormsKid | :P |
| 00:36.36 | javawizard2539 | was talking about blast007's flag |
| 00:36.37 | blast007 | it could be like a mortar, but with cows |
| 00:36.48 | MindstormsKid | the devs have no sense of humor anyway :P |
| 00:36.54 | javawizard2539 | It depends |
| 00:36.57 | javawizard2539 | is a dev |
| 00:36.58 | blast007 | MindstormsKid: pfft... |
| 00:37.02 | blast007 | is too |
| 00:37.05 | MindstormsKid | *some of the devs |
| 00:37.08 | javawizard2539 | :) |
| 00:38.24 | javawizard2539 | blast007: The original suggestion for the cow launcher was, if I remember correctly, where the cow is launched in the parabolic trajectory (It should actually be a catinary curve or however you spell it but I didn't mention that before) |
| 00:38.34 | javawizard2539 | and when it lands it like explodes or something and kills everyone there |
| 00:38.50 | javawizard2539 | s/the/a |
| 00:39.14 | javawizard2539 | So essentially it's like throwing a mine subject to gravity |
| 00:39.46 | MindstormsKid | s/mine/shockwave? |
| 00:39.55 | javawizard2539 | Kind of |
| 00:40.07 | javawizard2539 | Essentially, where when it lands a shockwave goes off |
| 00:40.19 | javawizard2539 | doesn't exactly think it's anywhere near the top of the priority list :) |
| 00:40.25 | javawizard2539 | But still entertaining nonetheless |
| 00:40.50 | BulletCatcher | blast007: I don't see a problem with a GM (or any other kind of shot) killing the tank that fired it, regardless of the path taken by the shot before it "returns home". |
| 00:41.12 | blast007 | BulletCatcher: even immediately after you shoot it? |
| 00:41.25 | javawizard2539 | BulletCatcher: I've been killed by gms quite a bit in 3.0 (and, if I remember correctly, 2.0.10) when the activate time is set to 0 |
| 00:41.39 | javawizard2539 | Essentially, to die if you're moving forward when you fire it |
| 00:41.53 | javawizard2539 | The velocity of normal shots matching the tank's makes it so that it doesn't occur with normal shots |
| 00:42.02 | javawizard2539 | But gms don't take on the tank's velocity |
| 00:42.40 | blast007 | hmm, and maybe laser is the one I was thinking of where the first segment is non-lethal to the one who fired it |
| 00:43.12 | javawizard2539 | goes to eat dinner |
| 00:43.12 | BulletCatcher | javawizard2539: That's why activation time exists. If server operators set it to zero then players must live with that choice. |
| 00:43.25 | javawizard2539 | Exactly |
| 00:43.32 | javawizard2539 | Which is why your first comment kind of confused me |
| 00:43.43 | javawizard2539 | Be back in like 15 minutes |

| 07:44.36 | JeffM | you would define the zones they can spawn in IIRC |
| 07:45.01 | iShock | Eugh, isn't that a lot of zones so they can spawn in all but 2 areas? |

| 07:46.20 | iShock | And there's no nospawn inside a world weapon or something? |
| 07:46.58 | JeffM | depends on the spawn pollicy on the server |
| 07:47.18 | iShock | I hid the geno flag where you gotta go thru a teleporter to get to it and the 2 GM flags, but the tele has a SW around it every 3 secs |
| 07:47.33 | iShock | It's easy enough to get thru if you know the trick, but spawning in it gets irksome :< |
| 07:52.07 | blast007 | do multiple spawn zones then... |

| 17:49.59 | JeffM2501 | if it's platforms pecific should those checks not be done in platform |
| 17:50.13 | JeffM2501 | then just add platform.window.vsyncAvail() ? |
| 17:50.18 | ts | Dunno |
| 17:50.55 | JeffM2501 | are you putting platform specific checks in the menu code? |
| 17:51.58 | ts | Umm, yes |
| 17:52.25 | ts | I guess you want me to re-organise, right? |
| 17:54.02 | ts | I just followed the anisotropic way in the file |
| 17:55.41 | blast007 | does another other than GLEW get used for anisotropic? |
| 17:56.31 | ts | Nope |
| 17:56.41 | JeffM2501 | yes, aniso only use glue, not someting specificly for mac |
| 17:56.53 | JeffM2501 | that's what glew does, abstracts it |
| 17:57.04 | JeffM2501 | if you have mac #defs in the menu code that is bad |
| 17:57.17 | JeffM2501 | move it to platform, and have the non mac platforms just use glew |
| 17:57.26 | ts | Yes but glew fails for Mac, it's not needed for vsync |
| 17:58.06 | ts | Umm, have you looked at the changes? |
| 17:58.08 | JeffM2501 | I don't realy care WHY you are using platform specifics, I'm just saying how you need to be using them |
| 17:58.11 | JeffM2501 | no |
| 17:58.24 | JeffM2501 | I don't want mac #defines in menu code |
| 17:58.35 | JeffM2501 | if there arn't mac specific defines in menu code then we are fine |
| 17:58.43 | JeffM2501 | the menus should be generic for all platforms |
| 17:59.44 | ts | Hrm, ok. It's just that I don't see the code being re-used anywhere else. |
| 18:00.02 | JeffM2501 | lots of platform code isn't used anywhere else |
| 18:00.08 | JeffM2501 | we only init the window once for instance |
| 18:00.14 | JeffM2501 | but it's still platform specific code |
| 18:00.18 | JeffM2501 | it's about seperation |
| 18:01.54 | ts | searches an example of platform use |
| 18:05.14 | JeffM2501 | I' |
| 18:05.35 | JeffM2501 | I'd think you'd just add it to BZDisplay and then add versions to the other 3 platforms |
| 18:05.49 | JeffM2501 | or even add the glew version to the base class, then just the mac specific version to the mac code |
| 18:05.53 | JeffM2501 | then it's just 2 changes |
| 18:06.03 | JeffM2501 | then just call that in the menu code |
| 18:06.20 | JeffM2501 | that way if we add another platform later, we don't have to go and keep adding stuff to the menu code |
| 18:06.26 | ts | I looked for the PlatformFactory files..but there are many and it would be almost always the same code |
| 18:06.58 | JeffM2501 | use C++ to your advantage |
| 18:07.02 | JeffM2501 | use the base class |
| 18:07.43 | ts | I'm searching for the base class but haven't found it yet |
| 18:07.57 | JeffM2501 | what platform class are you looking at |
| 18:08.08 | JeffM2501 | you don't want the factory you want the display, or window |
| 18:08.11 | CIA-43 | BZFlag: 03trepan * r19052 10/trunk/bzflag/plugins/lua/ (6 files): |
| 18:08.11 | CIA-43 | BZFlag: * added RawLink (aka: NewNonPlayerConnection) features to bzfslua |
| 18:08.11 | CIA-43 | BZFlag: * renamed the lua call-in from 'NewNonPlayerConnection' to 'RawLink' |
| 18:08.39 | ts | heh, if I would know :/ |
| 18:09.08 | JeffM2501 | if you aren't comforatable doing it that's fine, just don't make it worse by adding platform specifics to the menus |
| 18:10.11 | trepan | easy enough to move it into the VerticalSync files |
| 18:10.21 | trepan | keep the nasties in there |
| 18:10.28 | JeffM2501 | if it's platform specific, it should go in platform |
| 18:10.50 | ts | vertical sync is all platform specific from what I see |
| 18:12.03 | trepan | might want to take a look at the number of WIN32 checks in bzflag/ as well ;-) |
| 18:12.04 | JeffM2501 | then make a base BZVSync class that has the basics, then a mac version |
| 18:12.13 | JeffM2501 | trepan: sure I want to get rid of those as well |
| 18:12.28 | JeffM2501 | but if it's ADDING new ones right now I'd like to nip it in the bud |
| 18:12.33 | ts | JeffM2501: Vync is all platform specific, it's not like Mac is special |
| 18:12.53 | JeffM2501 | ts so tehre are no apple #defines in the mus? |
| 18:13.12 | JeffM2501 | or are you saying that each platform has it's own different vsync code? |
| 18:13.25 | ts | Each platform is different |
| 18:13.33 | JeffM2501 | then it should go into the platform code |
| 18:13.44 | JeffM2501 | like all the other stuff we have that is different per platform |
| 18:13.48 | JeffM2501 | make a vsync class |
| 18:13.54 | JeffM2501 | and have the factory return it |
| 18:14.15 | JeffM2501 | if you don't want to do all that work that's fine. I'm just saying how I'd like to see it |
| 18:14.30 | JeffM2501 | and I would not like people to do work that takes us further away from that |
| 18:14.32 | trepan | JeffM2501: you going to move OSFile into platform/ ? |
| 18:14.39 | ts | I'm willing to do so, I'm just a bit lost in the platform code |
| 18:14.41 | JeffM2501 | trepan: thought about it yeah |
| 18:14.44 | trepan | TimeKeeper, etc... |
| 18:14.49 | JeffM2501 | I'd make them base classes |
| 18:14.56 | JeffM2501 | with plat specific overides |
| 18:15.08 | trepan | heh, welcome to the mess :) |
| 18:15.10 | JeffM2501 | they do share some code, it'd just be those little nubs of plat specifics |
| 18:15.19 | JeffM2501 | trepan: I am not saying that the current code is perfect |
| 18:15.27 | JeffM2501 | I am just saying I don't want it to get any WORSE |
| 18:15.35 | JeffM2501 | but I'm done, do what you will |
| 18:15.39 | JeffM2501 | goes back to mining |
| 18:16.02 | ts | hrm, I feel lost |
| 18:16.03 | ts | :( |
| 18:16.14 | JeffM2501 | just forget it |
| 18:16.21 | ts | Sorry Jeff |
| 18:16.37 | JeffM2501 | I'll fix it if it bugs me too much |
| 18:20.05 | trepan | ts: move VerticalSync into platform, the header into include/ ? |
| 18:20.31 | ts | trepan: That I could do, if JeffM2501 agrees |
| 18:20.40 | JeffM2501 | do what you will |
| 18:20.53 | JeffM2501 | I've stated how I feel it should look |
| 18:20.57 | JeffM2501 | but I am not doing the coding |
| 18:21.01 | trepan | ts: or just remove VerticalSync ;-) |
| 18:21.09 | JeffM2501 | if I feel strongly about it, I'll change it myself |
| 18:21.13 | JeffM2501 | that seems to be how we work |
| 18:21.18 | ts | trepan: Heh, then all the effort would have been wasted |

| 20:00.41 | JeffM2501 | k |
| 20:00.42 | blast007 | was wondering if you fixed it ;) |
| 20:00.50 | JeffM2501 | I had a feeling that someone was on crack :) |
| 20:00.51 | blast007 | I hadn't tried previously |
| 20:01.11 | blast007 | just had to add the includes and lib dir for DirectX |
| 20:01.51 | JeffM2501 | he was getting corupted projets |
| 20:01.56 | JeffM2501 | so something musta been wierd |
| 20:05.44 | spldart | So EE VC9 does build fine as it was? |
| 20:06.06 | blast007 | spldart: what target were you building? I was building "Debug" |
| 20:06.18 | spldart | IIRC debug... |
| 20:06.54 | spldart | I'll hafta wait till I'm home again and see if my crack rocks were distorting my target |
| 20:06.55 | blast007 | did you add the directX SDK paths? |
| 20:06.56 | blast007 | k |
| 20:08.40 | spldart | I installed ee vc9 on a machine with ee vc8 already installed. I had assumed that the paths would be imported automagically. Someone thought the same thing iirc and asked the errors I was having. I listed a few and he seemed to think it may be something else it seemed. I not sure. Working 7 days a week clouds my memory :( |
| 20:09.05 | blast007 | it doesn't automatically add in the DirectX SDK paths |
| 20:09.17 | blast007 | I already had the SDK from playing with C# |
| 20:09.24 | spldart | I went into the menu's in vc9 to the same place that I did in vc8 and thought I remembned it looking right |
| 20:09.48 | blast007 | had to add $(DXSDK_DIR)include and $(DXSDK_DIR)lib (for include files and library files, respectively) |
| 20:09.57 | spldart | But if it doesn't auto add dx sdk then there is a problem. That is a fact.. Cuz I didn't do so myself. |
| 20:10.23 | spldart | When I get home in an hour or two can I have you walk me through it real quick just in case? |
| 20:10.52 | blast007 | hmm, actually the library path was $(DXSDK_DIR)lib\x86 |
| 20:11.17 | JeffM2501 | yeah I environed it :) |
| 20:11.52 | JeffM2501 | or no.. that's MS that did that |
| 20:11.57 | JeffM2501 | what did I eviron.... |
| 20:13.20 | blast007 | libcurl, fltk, and/or osg? |
| 20:13.39 | JeffM2501 | the first 2 are built by us, so no. maybe OSG |
| 20:14.06 | blast007 | fltk isn't built by us afaik |
| 20:14.21 | blast007 | unless that changed |
| 20:14.50 | blast007 | I have an FLTK_ROOT env var set up that points to my built copy |
