| 00:19.06 | Zehra | Mostly was hoping for some insights in relation to: https://forums.bzflag.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=20238 |
| 00:20.34 | Zehra | Personally I think they will be large enough that it makes sense to have it made within the next major release. |
| 00:20.45 | allejo | yea that's probably something we could redesign |
| 00:22.36 | Zehra | If so, I would be glad to help with updating the plug-ins. |
| 00:26.12 | blast007 | though being real, I have pondered moving to a scripting language |
| 00:26.27 | blast007 | then we could do cool things like embedding plugins within a map |
| 00:27.12 | allejo | is that something we'd want to tackle for 2.6? seems rather invasive to me |
| 00:27.30 | blast007 | nah, that's at least a 2.8 or later thing |
| 00:27.41 | blast007 | more important stuff right now would be things like IPv6 |
| 00:27.50 | blast007 | that should be a requirement for 2.6 |
| 00:27.54 | allejo | ah that i can get behind |
| 00:28.27 | blast007 | I've started on it here. Got the Address class at least mostly working with IPv6 and started to make more use of that |
| 00:31.04 | blast007 | for the API stuff - if that's something we want to do (moving to a scripting language in 2.8+) it might influence how much effort we'd want to put into API work in 2.6 |
| 00:36.03 | Zehra | What would the programming paradigm for the scripting language likely be? |
| 00:44.59 | allejo | huh |
| 00:53.41 | The_Noah | I could possibly write a very simple python-like embedded plugin handler |
| 00:54.22 | blast007 | it's something for much later |
| 00:54.34 | blast007 | something that should probably get developed in it's own branch when the time comes |
| 00:54.52 | The_Noah | what are some fairly small things I could work on that needs to be done? |
| 00:56.12 | Zehra | Would the scripting language be procedural, function or object-oriented? |
| 00:56.32 | The_Noah | procedural and functional are basically if not the same thing |
| 00:56.40 | The_Noah | and it would be procedural/functional |
| 00:56.48 | The_Noah | (if I made it) |
| 00:57.02 | blast007 | Zehra: too early to worry about such things |
| 00:57.39 | blast007 | something to look through if you're interested in what options there are, though: https://codeplea.com/game-scripting-languages |
| 00:58.33 | blast007 | for now, I'd rather we focus on graphics API upgrades, IPv6, and user interface rework/improvements |
| 00:59.02 | The_Noah | I can work on UI. |
| 01:20.57 | blast007 | The_Noah: UI there's not really a plan on yet |
| 01:21.18 | blast007 | https://github.com/bzflag-dev/bzflag/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22 |
| 01:23.36 | The_Noah | should I make PRs against master or 2.4? |
| 01:25.16 | blast007 | autopilot one 2.4, as that should be protocol compatible |
| 01:25.27 | blast007 | the crash one I wasn't able to reproduce |
| 01:25.56 | The_Noah | ya, I can't reproduce it either |
| 01:25.56 | allejo | good way to know is if we assign milestones to it. e.g. autopilot has a milestone of 2.4.20 |
| 01:42.20 | blast007 | tries something |
| 01:42.33 | BZNotify | bzflag: 03blast007 edited pull request #196 "Make radar size and console height be controlled by BZDB variables as discussed on IRC" by 03The-Noah (06https://git.io/fjcUX) |
| 01:42.46 | blast007 | oh god that breaks it horribly |
| 01:42.51 | blast007 | abort abort |
| 01:42.59 | BZNotify | bzflag: 03blast007 edited pull request #196 "Make radar size and console height be controlled by BZDB variables as discussed on IRC" by 03The-Noah (06https://git.io/fjcUX) |
| 01:43.34 | blast007 | so what's the correct way to apply a PR that was against master against 2.4 instead? |
| 01:44.26 | allejo | ah was that branch based off of master? |
| 01:44.52 | The_Noah | yes |
| 01:45.26 | blast007 | I tried to just change the base, but then it had a bunch of other commits (ones from the master branch?) in there as well |
| 01:45.32 | allejo | a number of ways. easiest would probably be get the patch file of the PR (https://github.com/BZFlag-Dev/bzflag/pull/196.patch) just add ".patch" to the end of the PR |
| 01:45.42 | allejo | and apply the patch manually |
| 01:45.48 | blast007 | ooo, magic |
| 01:46.17 | allejo | yea, if it's based on master and you want to merge into 2.4, then it'll want to merge master into 2.4 as well |
| 01:46.54 | blast007 | I was hoping it would be magic |
| 01:47.27 | allejo | the patch file or the changing branches? |
| 01:47.34 | blast007 | changing branches |
| 01:48.07 | blast007 | was hoping it would be "apply these two changes against 2.4 instead of master" |
| 01:49.04 | allejo | that'd require cherry picking and github doesn't have that |
| 01:50.16 | Zehra | "We don't allow cherry picking fallacies." -GitHub |
| 01:50.33 | The_Noah | Cherry picking is fun! So is berry picking. |

| 11:19.06 | blast007 | tupone: nah, I was just wondering if the web could do it. I'll give that a try later. |
| 12:25.22 | tupone | blast007: have you investigated the shader compiling problem on windows ? |
| 12:25.53 | blast007 | not yet. I'll try to mess with that this weekend. |
| 12:26.41 | tupone | and The_Noah problems could he run a debugger on it to check what is the problem? visualstudio should have a debugger |
| 12:29.53 | blast007 | I don't know. There's something weird going on there because the glew we build should not use a DLL. Maybe there's a set of system installed libraries that are getting mixed in. |
| 12:30.30 | blast007 | I wasn't getting a crash myself. Just the client exiting after complaing about shader compilation. |
| 12:31.36 | tupone | the shader reading, compiling and linking is all in Shader.cxx |
| 12:32.01 | blast007 | The_Noah: Are you on Windows 10? Were you using the WIndows 10 bash shell when you got the 'Segmentation fault' message? |
| 14:14.15 | The_Noah | blast007: to fix shaders trying changing line endings to Linux/LF. I am using windows, but Git Bash not WSL Bash. |
| 15:13.09 | blast007 | okay, was just curious, thanks |
