| 00:03.12 | allejo | making tanks even smaller is another way to keep that from being a problem |
| 00:12.23 | BulletCatcher | Some of the sanity logic that bzfs does have gets in the way sometimes. |
| 00:12.26 | BulletCatcher | By trusting that map makers understand the consequences of their choices we maximize their ability to be creative with a minimum amount of development work. |
| 00:12.28 | BulletCatcher | Maps that are unplayable for whatever reason don't last long. |
| 00:19.08 | Zehra | Interesting to note the maps which were made. |
| 00:19.35 | Zehra | Sadly some are unavailable due to being linked or posted to another site. |
| 00:19.59 | Zehra | The game play from some is perhaps the most interesting part. |
| 00:22.29 | Zehra | As my skill increases, I should be able to come up with a few nice surprises. |

| 19:51.33 | macsforme | a while ago we had a discussion about SDL 2's handling of numpad keys with numlock on versus off... I can't remember all the details of it, but I think we were trying to get consistent behavior on all platforms |
| 19:51.44 | macsforme | this was the workaround for macOS: https://github.com/BZFlag-Dev/bzflag/blob/2.4/src/platform/SDL2Display.cxx#L550-L567 |
| 19:54.15 | macsforme | it appears that the SDL team decided to accept the behavior as-is since it appears the discrepancy on macOS is just the way that OS works (as I understood their comments): https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2886 |
| 19:56.43 | macsforme | this is the whole workaround commit in our repository: https://github.com/BZFlag-Dev/bzflag/commit/45d16ac25c110fa7f9e4a582cb1105a70f1ea064 |
| 19:56.56 | blast007 | I think it was less about getting consistent behavior across all platforms and more about making it work like it had before SDL2 |
| 19:58.26 | macsforme | I really wish I could remember what the specific issue was... I want to say perhaps number keys were coming through in addition to the arrow keys and we only wanted the arrow keys |
| 19:59.28 | macsforme | (when numlock was off) |
| 20:02.21 | macsforme | regardless, it's working now the way we want it (I think... when the client starts, I can drive using the numpad keys, but when I turn numlock on, it just creates numbers)... should I just change the link to the bug report into a note about why the code exists? |
| 20:08.42 | blast007 | or add the note and leave the link to the bug report? |
