07:33.41[dmp]Don't think so. If you link directly (without rel="nofllow" on the a-tag) from the wiki, bzflag.org will give provide "link-juice" to whatever sites that it linkes to (via the spam). As google uses links, these links with increase the rating of their site as "bzflag.org" says they are valuable..

18:34.37CIA-35FTGL: add the compiler macros from BRL-CAD (http://brlcad.org) so we can use

18:45.40War_PigJust had a player writing ascii art to the chat channel.  He'd need a hacked client to do that wouldn't he?
18:46.06brador just bzadmin
18:46.13War_Pig...he was not using bzadmin
18:46.13bradyou can paste ascii ;-)
18:46.29bradmaybe a haxed client then
18:47.05War_Pigthanks
18:47.11bryjeni wonder if the quick-message keys could be made to do that
18:48.48War_PigCan you send multiple <cr> in a single quick key?
18:49.43War_PigI was thinking it might be our troll from yesterday, since he specifically stated that ascii art was a goal of his.
18:50.12bryjendon't know.
18:51.17bryjenmore annoyance than cheat unless it's flooding enough to impair other traffic
18:54.33War_PigSent 14 uninterrupted lines of text to the chat channel on a server with 21 players.
19:01.46CIA-35FTGL: 03brlcad * r1259 10/trunk/ (6 files in 5 dirs): implement a quick check for __FUNCTION__ and __func__ based on whether the compiler can actually use one or the other at runtime. cache the checks and provide __FUNC__ for use via FTGL_CPP_FUNC.

19:28.04Cobra_Fasthttps://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3077507&group_id=3248&atid=303248
19:33.22brlcadis that for trunk or 2.0 branch?
19:34.12Cobra_Fastworks with both
19:34.30Cobra_Fastfor trunk you would have to rename the files and put them in the right directories
19:35.10Cobra_Fasti added the hunter super bolt so it can be used for trunk though
19:36.18Cobra_Fastbrlcad: want me to repack it for trunk?
19:40.30brlcadyeah, should
19:40.58brlcadthere aren't any plans for another 2.0 release
19:43.26brlcadCobra_Fast: are you familiar with diff/patch format?
19:43.42Cobra_Fasti guess that doesnt apply at graphic files?
19:44.13brlcadyeah,  not generally -- just curious
19:44.38Cobra_Fastif you look a few rows lower in the tracker i already submitted a diff patch
19:45.04brlcadi don't have the tracker up, easier to just ask you :)
19:45.11brlcad(at least anymore)
19:45.18Cobra_Fastalright then
19:46.23Cobra_Fasthow do i add another file to the patch?
19:46.40Cobra_Fastah there ok
19:47.11Cobra_Fasthttps://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3077507&group_id=3248&atid=303248
19:47.18Cobra_Fastadded the new archive
19:54.36CIA-35BZFlag: 03cobrafast * r21322 10/trunk/bzflag/data/skins/ (7 files in 7 dirs): Removed ugly borders from the super bolts.
20:11.44brlcadyour patch is now assigned to you, so you can close it out
20:13.17brlcadfeel free to review the other pending patches if any can be reviewed and applied easily that aren't a negative on gameplay
20:14.09brlcadprobably a third to half of them should be rejected, so review with care
20:14.16Cobra_Fastokay thanks, i will think wisely before changing things
20:15.36Cobra_Fastshould i provide a reason when rejecting or accepting patches?
20:16.47brlcadabsolutely
20:17.05brlcador ask questions to clarify, or request a modification of the patch
20:18.12brlcadif you commit a patch, you should refer to the patch # in the commit log message along with the submitters name, and you'll nee dot document their contribution in the AUTHORS file
20:18.23brlcads/nee dot/need to/
20:19.14Cobra_Fastk
20:21.43Cobra_Fastwhats with patch priorities?
20:22.51brlcaddon't need to pay a whole lot of attention to that, but that's usually just a measure of how relatively interesting and useful a given patch is to the project
20:23.07brlcadpriority tends to increase while patches are being looked at, decreases if there are issues, etc
20:23.39Cobra_Fastso if a patch looks like a gift from god i might give it a higher priority?
20:23.47brlcadyep
20:23.51Cobra_Fastok
20:24.46brlcadmost patches won't apply cleanly (especially to trunk, which is the focus) .. but most will after minor changes
20:24.56brlcadwhen in doubt, ask someone :)
20:25.34temporalDwhat should I do tonight after work?

20:27.25brlcad(all the various drop-downs)
20:27.46Cobra_Fasti guess that comes with understanding the system
