| 00:01.35 | blast007 | I still think that the mobile platforms should get a different game |
| 00:01.51 | blast007 | iOS, Android, Sailfish OS, etc |
| 00:04.00 | blast007 | luckily there's always the option of forking the codebase from the point prior to such a license change and continuing from there |
| 00:11.22 | Constitution | because the controls make it hard for mobile devices to compete against desktop users? or are you talking about a totally different game with fewer features on mobile |
| 00:13.01 | TimRiker | Constitution, I have to run. I think the mozilla / LGPL option could work. I'll let that get passed in front of other devs for a while and see where we go. Thanx for the interest! |
| 00:18.21 | Constitution | all 5 of the developers :) |
| 00:31.38 | Constitution | blast007: the ability of users with older systems to run the client was largely negated when we decided to require c++11 |
| 00:32.20 | blast007 | not really |
| 00:33.01 | blast007 | we can run on Debian Squeeze, which is the old-old-stable version of Debian |
| 00:34.01 | blast007 | Debain Squeeze system requirements: https://www.debian.org/releases/squeeze/i386/ch03s04.html.en |
| 00:35.24 | blast007 | I'm thinking that the 2.4.4 stuff probably doesn't run on XP right now, most likely due to the dependency build process, but I haven't tried yet |
| 00:38.25 | Constitution | squeeze was released in 2014... and on Mac OS X, the latest version we will run on was released in 2011 |
| 00:38.45 | Constitution | er sorry, squeeze was in 2011 also |
| 00:39.25 | blast007 | squeeze 6.0.14 was |
| 00:39.30 | blast007 | .10* |
| 00:41.49 | blast007 | but I'm not talking about when an OS was released, but what kind of hardware it can run on |
| 00:42.49 | blast007 | I could throw Debian Jessie on my Pentium 4 with an nVidia GeForce 5200, and it would probably run well enough to do some stuff |
| 00:46.39 | blast007 | almost works on my XP system... oddly can get the MOTD, but not the server list, and can't resolve server hostnames ;D |
| 01:26.28 | blast007 | hmm, and actually the issue would be something else than what I was thinking.. was thinking it was due to picking a compiler that doesn't support XP, but that's only a think in Visual C++ 2013, not 2010 |
| 01:58.29 | the_map | I wonder how far valera_rozuvan will get |
| 03:06.51 | Constitution | maybe he will port it to the unreal 4 engine |
| 03:07.09 | the_map | idk what that is |

| 05:34.13 | BulletCatcher | We have used C++11 features only a few places, IIRC. |
| 05:34.16 | BulletCatcher | If there is a genuine requirement for using older compilers we could undo the relevant changes. |
| 05:34.18 | BulletCatcher | As usual, we would need to find someone motivated for that. |

| 17:00.42 | the_map | does shot vertical velocity affect gm? |
| 17:02.20 | allejo | if it's not locked on to someone, yes |
| 17:04.03 | the_map | so if it's locked onto someone, but has a *really* slow turn speed, it won't be affected? or is the effect just negated by the standard turn speed? |

| 17:22.52 | blast007 | I imagine it would be affected regardless, but would correct the angle as it usually does |

| 17:26.13 | valera_rozuvan | Hello! |
| 17:27.11 | valera_rozuvan | While studying the history of BZFlag, I also went and looked at all of the early games which it is based on. I gues everyone in here knows about Battlezone from the 1980. |
| 17:27.38 | valera_rozuvan | But do you know that it is still continuing? Take a look at www.battlezone.com . Looks exciting = ) |
| 17:30.04 | valera_rozuvan | "In 2013, Rebellion directors Chris and Jason Kingsley bought the Battlezone IP from Atari. As huge fans of the arcade game, Chris and Jason are absolutely thrilled to bring back a franchise that they and so many others treasure." |
