| 01:34.58 | macsforme | asking SDL for the function pointer (and checking for a null result) is already a pretty easy, cross-platform solution |
| 01:36.58 | macsforme | I'm not sure if using GLEW would simplify that at all... I briefly looked for some examples of how GLEW provides a GL function (whether you have to define a pointer and instantiate it, or if you can just call it directly)... I didn't find an answer yet |
| 01:38.42 | macsforme | but at this point, I have doubts that there is any benefit for us to use GLEW, especially if we are moving toward using only SDL 2, which already does most of the work |
| 01:40.23 | macsforme | we could still streamline our process for loading functions a bit, if we made a function that takes a pointer and function name, and we could just feed it a list of functions we need and check for any errors |

| 06:49.09 | tupone | I am going to prepare a version, as a pull request, with glew and see the difference |

| 23:10.57 | Zehra | Small little bug with solo bots. |
| 23:11.12 | Zehra | If I give them SteamRoller, they instantly die. :p |
| 23:11.42 | Zehra | Doesn't matter if I give them via /flag give [name] SR or by plug-in, they die. :p |
| 23:14.26 | allejo | can confirm |
| 23:14.37 | allejo | my noodles are indeed done |
| 23:15.42 | JeffM | solo bots ain't smart |
| 23:17.41 | Zehra | I sort of tend to rely on them for testing things. |
| 23:18.19 | allejo | just don't test SR flags |
| 23:18.36 | JeffM | that isn't what they are for :) |
| 23:19.13 | blast007 | Zehra: test with autopilot, not solo bots |
| 23:19.20 | blast007 | solo bots don't know how to use flags |
| 23:19.30 | JeffM | they barely know how to drive |
| 23:19.30 | blast007 | autopilot knows how to use some, at lesat |
| 23:19.42 | blast007 | they actually navigate pretty well |
| 23:19.56 | blast007 | just not in 3D :) |
| 23:20.34 | allejo | but, can they say, "roger, roger?" |
| 23:21.28 | Zehra | blast007: thanks for the tip, I'll probably start using autoPilot more often. :) |
| 23:27.26 | Zehra | Quick question, are serverSideBots reported on the list? |
| 23:28.01 | Zehra | has an idea for it |
| 23:28.41 | Zehra | I'm thinking of setting the player team from the bot to a team color, so I can get a specific team flag to spawn. |
| 23:29.11 | Zehra | I can disable the other flags, and make it that two teams will have to go for a single flag. :p |
| 23:30.11 | Zehra | isn't sure if this is a good idea or a better version of it can be made |
| 23:30.32 | blast007 | yes, they are, but they also can't drive, so.. |
| 23:30.53 | allejo | bzfs is *supposed* to support spawning arbitrary team flags if you set the player count to -1 in -mp... but. no clue if that even works |
| 23:32.43 | Zehra | I'm not really interested in the driving part, just having them join and stay fixed will work best. :) |
| 23:33.09 | Zehra | goes to check if spawning team flags without a player works |
| 23:49.59 | Zehra | Adding -1 in mp isn't seeming to work, I tried /flag give Zehra G* and "flag type not found." was received as message. :/ |
| 23:50.38 | Zehra | Oddly enough, I did 1 in options and even without a player, it was possible to get the flag with flag give, but it disappeared after cap. :p |
| 23:54.34 | Zehra | Almost forgot to mention that the -mp option was done in the map file too. |
| 23:55.36 | allejo | yah. i read it somewhere in the comments or man file, though it never worked for me. so it's either a lie or a bug |
| 23:57.06 | Zehra | :p |
| 23:57.13 | Zehra | Or maybe both. |
| 23:57.47 | Zehra | The comment there is a lie, so therefore an error, which is a bug. :p |
