00:02.26allejoalright JeffM
00:15.13khonkhortisanhow do I turn on word wrap in virus?
00:16.15JeffMALT+SHIFT+F4
00:16.23khonkhortisanoops wrong chat
00:16.36JeffMnow we know you are a virus author and must ban you
00:16.56khonkhortisanno, it's a vi-like editor used on the alt.org nethack telnet server
00:17.09JeffMRIGGGHHHTTTTT!
00:17.24khonkhortisanI have the program to prove it
00:17.38JeffMlike I'd run your virus to check it out
00:18.38khonkhortisanhttp://76.121.156.73/nee.c
00:19.34JeffMWHY ARE YOU HAXORING MY B0X0RZ!!!!!!!?!?!?!
00:20.02JeffM#include <unistd.h>, totaly virus code!
00:20.36JeffMgood lord is that one fugly if/else if/else block in the main
00:20.49JeffMthat's what happens when you write code in an 80 character terminal
00:24.02khonkhortisanhaha
00:24.23khonkhortisanI don't remember what unistd.h does
00:24.36khonkhortisanYou're lucky I went with wget instead of real html stuff
00:26.22JeffMit includes stuff that windows don't have, that's why I remember it :)
00:26.50JeffMwhen I see that I know I have work to do when porting
00:27.14khonkhortisanoh
00:27.21khonkhortisanthen I better not give it to people then
00:27.44JeffMit's obviously a unix program, it looks pretty standard for that
00:28.55khonkhortisanoh that include is for replacing the characters I get

03:33.45khonkhortisanjeffm, I don't think I can change if/else if/elseif to a switch/casecase because I'm using strcmp
03:34.28moondoggyHey, can I get some Unix programming advice?
03:34.30moondoggy:)
03:34.41khonkhortisanI could try
03:35.06moondoggyJust being ironic, because you went into the wrong channel before.
03:35.16moondoggyDo people get games together on this channel?
03:35.39khonkhortisan...no
03:35.44moondoggyI never see the same people here that are in the games.  
03:36.09moondoggyIs this really just for the developers?
03:36.29khonkhortisanno, we'd have a #bzflag-dev channel then
03:36.46moondoggyNo kidding.
03:37.11moondoggyWhat's the best way to search for topical IRC channels?  
03:37.23moondoggyI keep just guessing /join #whatever...
03:37.30khonkhortisanthere's a channel list
03:37.42bradquite a few players in here too, moondoggy
03:38.36khonkhortisan"Displaying 217581/217581 users on 7991/7991 channels"
03:38.40moondoggyWe need a newbie/idiot/blind person game, brad.  I can't learn fast with people blowing me up every 2 seconds.
03:38.49jeffmkhonkhortisan, oh I know I was mostly commenting on the formating
03:39.01jeffmif it was me I'd se a map with values or function pointers
03:39.05bradtry out different servers moondoggy
03:39.26jeffmmoondoggy, there is bzflag-chat for that
03:39.39khonkhortisanoh I forgot about that
03:39.45moondoggyYeah, maybe I'll get better.  Jeez, the people I play with are too good.
03:39.47jeffmand yeah this channel IS for development
03:39.52bradwhere have you been playing?
03:40.05moondoggyOh!  Thanks, jeffm .
03:40.09khonkhortisanthere's always the dodge trainer
03:40.25moondoggyReally?  What server is the dodge one?
03:41.01jeffmkhonkhortisan, i'm sure that code works just fine and you may be limited to some things that i'd do by it just being C :)
03:41.04khonkhortisanbzbattleground.com:4218 Dodge Trainer by ahs3
03:41.27khonkhortisanlike std::string?
03:41.34khonkhortisanand string1 + string2
03:41.44moondoggyThanks.   I'll try that out.
03:41.46jeffmno like functors and objects ;)
03:42.02jeffmand yeah std::string gives you a little more flexability
03:42.11khonkhortisanthere's usually no one on dodge trainer until you're there
03:42.25moondoggyJoin & wait?
03:42.29khonkhortisanyeah
03:42.47moondoggyOk, thanks.  Later, folks...
03:42.55jeffmhave fun
03:43.08khonkhortisanA dodger will defeat a jumper most of the time
03:51.42moondoggyYeah, I'm a pathological jumper.
03:52.01moondoggyHow do I toggle the players list?  I can't see through them all!
03:58.41jeffms
04:01.03moondoggythanks.

18:46.00alezakosI submitted a patch yesterday, but it has gone unnoticed
18:58.21khonkhortisanI notice it now that you mention it
18:59.29alezakosbtw, khonkhortisan, the helit.org servers *did* have the patch
18:59.49khonkhortisanboth? it only seemed to work on one
18:59.51alezakosonly the HIX one didn't have the '-w' option
18:59.55alezakosthey were 3
18:59.56khonkhortisanoh
19:00.11khonkhortisanI didn't think of doing it that way
19:00.17alezakos:)
19:02.42alezakosAnd the flag buffet map was under misc/maps/ directory of the bzflag source
19:04.26khonkhortisannever seen it before in me life
19:05.19alezakosIncluding the hix and the fountains (test of world weapons) maps
19:16.13khonkhortisanSo if I created a new world weapon I would also make the patch add it to the fountain mayp
19:16.15khonkhortisan*map
19:17.27alezakosProbably

19:44.30Constitutionallejo: as far as I can tell, that method only allows the API to retrieve the motto, not to set it? am I mistaken?
19:44.57spldartHoly crap! Has there really been so much activity in bzflag source or is it just appear so cuz of something much simpler?
19:45.23DTRemenakcopyright update?
19:45.35spldartAh... something bookkeeping
19:46.39alezakosActually, there's been quite high activity
19:46.45alezakosPatches, new plugin and stuff
19:47.52allejoConstitution, hmmm… i believe blast007 told me that that event allowed to set the motto
19:48.39blast007there's an event that lets you set it
19:49.51blast007Constitution: where are you seeing that it doesn't allow setting it?
19:50.14blast007<PROTECTED>
19:50.14blast007<PROTECTED>
19:50.15blast007<PROTECTED>
19:51.21khonkhortisanWhat is the planned use of changing the motto?
19:51.38blast007team names as the motto, for instance
19:52.03blast007but that would require a local database of team associations at present
19:52.28khonkhortisanshouldn't be _too_ hard to move global
19:53.32blast007what?
19:54.19khonkhortisansomeone could easily create a website hosting a database for a plugin that changes player mottos based on teams
19:54.29blast007no, that's my point
19:54.51blast007a web request can't be used for the motto setting, at least not at join time
19:55.06alezakosRikers cup is scheduled to take place in ~5 minutes
19:56.03Constitutionblast007: okay, so when the event is called I should just modify the string? seems I tried that and it segfaulted? will have to look into again
19:57.48blast007are you not sure if it segfaulted?  ;)
19:59.50ConstitutionI am sure it segfaulted, I am not 100% positive that I was doing specifically that to cause the segfault :)
