I was not really singing to it then, so it seemed longer I guess.

This is big...
[spoiler]<woodmouse> Zefz, Zefz! :D
<woodmouse> Do you have ideas for the module I'm making?
<Zefz> Hi
<Zefz> Nightmare?
<BenUrban> oh hi there
<BenUrban> fyi, my idea is that the toilet could be used to vomiting, or diarrhea, or something
<woodmouse> no Nightmare but Evil Mountains
<woodmouse> I will change its name to something else though
<Zefz> First of all I would make it have a place in Bishopia
<Zefz> something that fits in with the rest of the world
<Zefz> Where is it? Why and how does the player get there? What is he supposed to do there?
<woodmouse> it will be in the dark place
<woodmouse> I mean
<woodmouse> not the volcanic place but the
<woodmouse> brown mountains
<woodmouse> in world map module
<woodmouse> Ooooh Jonathan is back! :D
<woodmouse> and the player goes there to kill undeads and prisoners
<PurpleSquerkle> Hello again.
<BenUrban> hiyagain
<woodmouse> hello
<woodmouse> @Mr. Moderator P: I am making a new module
<woodmouse> xD
<woodmouse> Or
<woodmouse> actually
<woodmouse> you are dev
<woodmouse> well
<woodmouse> I correct what I said:
<woodmouse> @Mr. Developer P: I am making a new module
BenUrban sets mode: +o PurpleSquerkle
BenUrban sets mode: +o woodmouse
BenUrban sets mode: +o Zefz
<woodmouse> ?
<BenUrban> better :P
<woodmouse> @Purple Zefz: Are you there?
<woodmouse> *Purple and Zefz
<PurpleSquerkle> Yes. Or I am, at least.
<Zefz> I am too.
<Zefz> How is the module coming along? Figured out how and where to implement it?
<woodmouse> Zefz you forgot "@Purple:".
<BenUrban> ok now i REALLY have to leave
<woodmouse> ok
<BenUrban> bye
<woodmouse> bye
<woodmouse> He left.
<woodmouse> :(
<woodmouse> Zefz, what should the Elf Arch mage look like?
<woodmouse> äc
<woodmouse> *clothes, etc.
<Zefz> Use your fantasy :) The most logical would be like the Arch-Wizard
<Zefz> looks the same, but one for the elf instead
<woodmouse> ok
<woodmouse> so I make blue eyes
<Zefz> Sure, if you want to.
<woodmouse> And black brown robe?
<woodmouse> or...
<woodmouse> green for elf?
<woodmouse> I think it would fit elf better
<PurpleSquerkle> It should be brown and green.
<woodmouse> ok
<woodmouse> I make it that then : D
<PurpleSquerkle> ...with pink polka dots.
<PurpleSquerkle> And a plaid... kilt.
<woodmouse> ...
<woodmouse> ok...
<PurpleSquerkle> I wasn't serious. =D
<woodmouse> ok
<woodmouse> good
<woodmouse> it would have looked g** if it would have been like that.
<woodmouse> The blue eyes are scary...
<Zefz> Well, I have to go now
<Zefz> cya
<Zefz> good luck with your work folks :)
<woodmouse> see you oh great Zefz.
<woodmouse> Purple.
<woodmouse> Have you got ideas for the module I'm making? It's a mountain module.
<PurpleSquerkle> Lots of sheep?
<woodmouse> ok
<PurpleSquerkle> You should have some peaceful sort of things... and then tons of monsters in places!
<PurpleSquerkle> And maybe some peasants help you?
<woodmouse> yes
<woodmouse> Ben Urban said that too. :)
<PurpleSquerkle> And you could put in some G'nomes, since they live in the mountains....
<woodmouse> ooh
<woodmouse> ok
<woodmouse> G'nomes.
<woodmouse> are nice
<woodmouse> .
<woodmouse> I thin
<woodmouse> *think'
<woodmouse> EEEEEEE!!!!!
<woodmouse> PURPLEEEEEE!!!
<woodmouse> YOU...!
<woodmouse> LEFT?
<woodmouse> :cry:
<woodmouse> oh
<woodmouse> I forgot faces wont work in chat.
<woodmouse> Oh, and
<woodmouse> guess what the newest inventor skin is.
<woodmouse> If you have seen it
<woodmouse> the japanese dark warrior
<woodmouse> ...if you are there.
<PurpleSquerkle> I'm here.
<PurpleSquerkle> The inventor skin what?
<woodmouse> the newest inventor skin I have made
<woodmouse> the black red one
<woodmouse> guess what game's what character the skin is
<woodmouse> it's not obivous
<woodmouse> I mean
<woodmouse> it's not exactly what it is meant to be
<woodmouse> I tell you: It's Jin from Tekken
<woodmouse> but..
<woodmouse> a little different,
<woodmouse> All Inventor skins I make are from movies or games.
<woodmouse> or comics
<woodmouse> Purple?
<PurpleSquerkle> Oh, sorry.
<PurpleSquerkle> I'm working on my module...
<PurpleSquerkle> I think I'm going to go now.
<PurpleSquerkle> Bye.
<woodmouse> ok
<woodmouse> Bye!
<woodmouse> D:
<woodmouse> T_T
<woodmouse> T_T
<woodmouse> hahahhahahahah
<woodmouse> hahahha
<woodmouse> I can't wait
<woodmouse> to see your module[/spoiler]

[3:35pm] <BenUrban> hiya
[3:35pm] woodmouse was promoted to operator by you.
[3:35pm] <BenUrban> was eating lunch
[3:36pm] <woodmouse> ok
[3:36pm] <woodmouse> I have so bad internet connection... :(
[3:36pm] <woodmouse> well
[3:36pm] <woodmouse> I hope it doesn't get broken again now
[3:37pm] <woodmouse> I'm installing Egoboo 2.6.5b
[3:38pm] <woodmouse> 2.6.5 got broken...
[3:38pm] <BenUrban> you didn't have 2.6.5b before?
[3:38pm] <woodmouse> no
[3:38pm] <BenUrban> i see
[3:38pm] <woodmouse> I had 2.6.5
[3:38pm] <woodmouse> my computer is weird, because it turns off sometimes
[3:38pm] <BenUrban> ...
[3:38pm] <BenUrban> laptop?
[3:38pm] <woodmouse> that happened when I did something for Egoboo 2.6.5
[3:38pm] <woodmouse> no
[3:39pm] <woodmouse> it's not laptop
[3:39pm] <woodmouse> this is just so olf
[3:39pm] <woodmouse> *old
[3:39pm] <BenUrban> running windows?
[3:39pm] <woodmouse> yea
[3:39pm] <woodmouse> but...
[3:39pm] <woodmouse> MY POSTTS GOT DELETED!!! :O
[3:39pm] <woodmouse> T_T
[3:40pm] <woodmouse> I can't see my posts!
[3:40pm] <BenUrban> in the forums?
[3:40pm] <woodmouse> yea!
[3:40pm] <woodmouse> :(
[3:40pm] <BenUrban> they are still there
[3:40pm] <woodmouse> hey
[3:40pm] <woodmouse> now I see
[3:40pm] <woodmouse> weird
[3:40pm] <woodmouse> well
[3:40pm] <woodmouse> didn't load I think

[3:41pm] <BenUrban> hiy
[3:41pm] Zefz was promoted to operator by you.
[3:41pm] <BenUrban> *hiya
[3:41pm] <Zefz> Hey
[3:42pm] <Zefz> What's up?
[3:42pm] <BenUrban> not much
[3:42pm] <Zefz> Just check Egoboo's rating on various reviews on the net. It got a 8/10
[3:42pm] <BenUrban> not bad
[3:42pm] <Zefz> Hopefully it will bump up to 9 or even 10 when it's actually finished :)
[3:43pm] <BenUrban> heh
[3:43pm] <Zefz> By the way I am releasing version 2.6.6 next week or so
[3:43pm] <woodmouse> ZEFZ!!!!!
[3:43pm] <BenUrban> so i hear
[3:43pm] <Zefz> Any last minute changes/additions you could mention before I release?
[3:44pm] <woodmouse> hmm
[3:44pm] <woodmouse> abut the maphits' skins...
[3:44pm] <BenUrban> did you fix abyss1?
[3:44pm] <BenUrban> and turn off the hat icon?
[3:46pm] <Zefz> Abyss 1 spawn point? Fixed. Also did some other changes, added new monster and replaced the Chocobones
[3:46pm] <woodmouse> oooh
[3:46pm] <woodmouse> with what?
[3:46pm] <Zefz> I could replace the Hat icon with an other?
[3:46pm] <Zefz> Dark Spirits riding Hell Rovers
[3:46pm] <woodmouse> ok...
[3:46pm] <BenUrban> abyss1 also needed the victory command restored, iirc
[3:47pm] <BenUrban> talking about the hat icon that is activated when the app starts
[3:47pm] <Zefz> Yes that is also fixed already =)
[3:47pm] <Zefz> Yeah, I could replace that one if people doesn't like it.
[3:48pm] <BenUrban> well
[3:48pm] <Zefz> It is quite easy, it is located under the basicdat folder
[3:48pm] <BenUrban> i'm thinking there's no need to have it set at all
[3:48pm] <BenUrban> at least on Mac, the icon defaults to the application icon
[3:48pm] <BenUrban> windows too, i suspect
[3:48pm] <BenUrban> maybe it should only be set on linux?
[3:49pm] woodmouse (woodmouse@E626A52B.9F246672.9DA1BFA7.IP) left the chat room. (Connection reset by peer)
[3:49pm] <BenUrban> heh, i offended woodmouse
[3:49pm] woodmouse (woodmouse@E626A52B.9F246672.9DA1BFA7.IP) joined the chat room.
[3:49pm] woodmouse was promoted to operator by you.
[3:49pm] <woodmouse> Has something happened in this while?
[3:49pm] <woodmouse> I have so bad internet connection... :(
[3:49pm] <Zefz> Nothing special...
[3:50pm] <woodmouse> ok
[3:50pm] <Zefz> Well the hat icon shows up in the corner window when the application starts.
[3:50pm] <Zefz> On window xps.
[3:50pm] <BenUrban> if you have it not load the hat icon, does the skull icon show there instead?
[3:51pm] <woodmouse> So about the mephit skins: are the ones I made going to be in the game? or were they worser? I mean I myself like them more
[3:52pm] <BenUrban> also...is the deflection shield supposed to not enchant its user?
[3:52pm] <BenUrban> the enchantment is commented out, for some reason
[3:53pm] <Zefz> Hmm... I will check the Shield of Deflection out. Where is it located?
[3:53pm] <BenUrban> bishopia city
[3:53pm] <Zefz> Are the mephit skins better? I thought they were a little blurry when I looked at them (not ingame)
[3:53pm] <BenUrban> and in several of my characters :P
[3:54pm] <Zefz> And I could replace the hat icon with the skull... possibly.
[3:54pm] <Zefz> Hmm... You use the shield even if it does not work? :P
[3:54pm] <BenUrban> no, i uncommented the enchantment :P
[3:54pm] <Zefz> Ah ^^
[3:54pm] <BenUrban> but it would still work as a shield anyway
[3:54pm] <woodmouse> hmm the mephit skins are a bit blurry on purpose
[3:55pm] <BenUrban> also, would it be feasible to enable no-respawn levels to restart when the user presses space?
[3:55pm] <BenUrban> i find it rather annoying to have to go through the menu again and again
[3:56pm] <Zefz> Hmmm interesting. That is a feature we definately need to implement at some point!
[3:56pm] <woodmouse> ?
[3:56pm] <woodmouse> what?
[3:57pm] <Zefz> Maybe you should make a post for that on the "stuff that need to be added" so that it is not forgotten.
[3:57pm] <BenUrban> hmm, okay
[3:57pm] <BenUrban> i log my irc chats anyway :P
[3:57pm] <BenUrban> hmm...what else...
[3:57pm] <woodmouse> @Zefz: Is the guard captain going to be fixed in next release?
[3:57pm] <BenUrban> did anyone ever figure out why books have screwy icons?
[3:58pm] Leviticus (Leviticus@4AF94F28.B03BBF52.5C92792F.IP) joined the chat room.

[3:58pm] <woodmouse> hello
[3:58pm] <BenUrban> hiya
[3:58pm] Leviticus was promoted to operator by you.
[3:59pm] <woodmouse> I play for a bit. I am back in minute.
[3:59pm] <Zefz> ello
[3:59pm] <Zefz> ok
[3:59pm] <Zefz> What is wrong with the Guard captain?
[3:59pm] <woodmouse> AAAAH!
[4:00pm] <woodmouse> 2.6.5b don't work!
[4:00pm] <Zefz> What's wrong?
[4:00pm] <woodmouse> @Zefz: Captain doesn't attack.
[4:00pm] <woodmouse> but
[4:00pm] <woodmouse> I don't know why the game doesn't work
[4:00pm] <woodmouse> I mean
[4:00pm] <woodmouse> I had 2.6.5
[4:00pm] <BenUrban> anything in the log?
[4:00pm] <woodmouse> no
[4:00pm] <woodmouse> nothing in log
[4:01pm] <woodmouse> it's just like in the old releases
[4:02pm] <Zefz> I know what the problem is then....
[4:02pm] <woodmouse> :D
[4:02pm] <woodmouse> what is it?
[4:03pm] <woodmouse> Is 2.6.5 somewhere still?
[4:03pm] <woodmouse> I mean
[4:03pm] <woodmouse> it doesn't work
[4:03pm] <Zefz> SDL_mixer probably
[4:03pm] <woodmouse> oh
[4:03pm] <Zefz> I updated it
[4:03pm] <woodmouse> can it be fixed?
[4:03pm] <woodmouse> oh
[4:03pm] <Zefz> and if I remember correctly, that caused some pc's to crash
[4:04pm] <woodmouse> ok
[4:04pm] <woodmouse> well
[4:04pm] <Zefz> (Clonks was having problems too I think)
[4:04pm] <woodmouse> the only working version for me is 2.4.4 now...
[4:04pm] <woodmouse> and that's not good.
[4:04pm] <woodmouse> I mean
[4:04pm] <woodmouse> 2.6.5 worked
[4:04pm] <woodmouse> but then my computer broke it
[4:04pm] <BenUrban> try copying the library from 2.6.5 then
[4:05pm] <Zefz> Egoboo 2.6.5b = - Update: Now using SDL_Mixer version 1.2.8
[4:05pm] <BenUrban> or is it linked statically?
[4:05pm] <woodmouse> ?
[4:05pm] <woodmouse> 2.6.5 got broken so it doesn't do anything when I try to play
[4:05pm] <woodmouse> some files missin
[4:06pm] <woodmouse> I really need working version again... :(
[4:06pm] <BenUrban> "I need my fix!"
[4:06pm] <Zefz> Copy all the .dll files from Egoboo 2.6.5 to Egoboo 2.6.5b
[4:06pm] <woodmouse> well
[4:06pm] <woodmouse> they are missing
[4:06pm] <woodmouse> I mean
[4:06pm] <woodmouse> all files of 2.6.5 are now missing
[4:07pm] <woodmouse> I hate Windows.
[4:07pm] <Zefz> Heh
[4:07pm] <woodmouse> ;_;
[4:08pm] <woodmouse> Uhh I don't think I will play 2.4.4...
[4:08pm] <woodmouse> I mean...
[4:08pm] <woodmouse> it's really not good
[4:08pm] <BenUrban> http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixe ... -win32.zip
[4:08pm] <BenUrban> is that the right version?
[4:08pm] <woodmouse> ?
[4:09pm] <BenUrban> see if that version works for you
[4:09pm] <woodmouse> AAAAAAH!!!!
[4:09pm] <woodmouse> Same error
[4:09pm] <woodmouse> ;_;
[4:09pm] <BenUrban> with 1.2.7?
[4:09pm] <Zefz> I think you need older than 1.2.7
[4:10pm] <BenUrban> oh
[4:10pm] <Zefz> try 1.2.4
[4:10pm] <BenUrban> http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixe ... -win32.zip
[4:10pm] <BenUrban> heh they're all in the same directory
[4:10pm] <Zefz> ^^
[4:10pm] <woodmouse> same error...
[4:10pm] <woodmouse> or
[4:10pm] <Zefz> Downlad the .dll file woodmouse and place it in your egoboo directory
[4:11pm] <woodmouse> I did
[4:11pm] <woodmouse> in 2.6.5b
[4:12pm] <Zefz> What version sdl.dll do you have?
[4:12pm] <woodmouse> ummm
[4:12pm] <woodmouse> I don't know
[4:13pm] <Zefz> Btw I fixed the book screwy icons bug
[4:13pm] <BenUrban> ah, wonderful
[4:13pm] <woodmouse> Hey! I have 2.6.4
[4:14pm] <woodmouse> I think I can play that until the new release... ;_;
[4:14pm] <BenUrban> does it work?
[4:14pm] <woodmouse> yes
[4:14pm] <Zefz> Copy the 2.6.4 dlls
[4:14pm] <woodmouse> HEY!
[4:14pm] <BenUrban> try copying its dlls :)
[4:14pm] <woodmouse> oooh
[4:14pm] <Zefz> Delete the old dlls first
[4:14pm] <woodmouse> I have...
[4:14pm] <woodmouse> 2.6.5
[4:14pm] <woodmouse> there
[4:14pm] <woodmouse> in 2.6.4 folder.
[4:14pm] <BenUrban> haha
[4:15pm] <woodmouse> I copy files to 2.6.5 folder...
[4:15pm] <woodmouse> takes a loooong time....;_;
[4:16pm] <woodmouse> 45 windows seconds... XD
[4:16pm] <woodmouse> in real time= ~5000000 hours
[4:16pm] <Zefz> Hmm... sounds like you are messing things up :P
[4:16pm] <woodmouse> Hmmm
[4:16pm] <woodmouse> I dind't move it there...
[4:16pm] <woodmouse> well it is now finished
[4:16pm] <BenUrban> Zefz: has there been any discussion about the evolution of egoscript?
[4:16pm] <woodmouse> I test if it works now
[4:17pm] <woodmouse> NOOO!!!
[4:17pm] <woodmouse> ERROR!!!
[4:17pm] <woodmouse> WTF!!!!?
[4:17pm] <woodmouse> EVEN 2.6.4 WONT WORK NOW!!!
[4:17pm] <woodmouse> all because of 2.6.5b...
[4:18pm] <woodmouse> I think
[4:18pm] <Zefz> @ben: there has...
[4:18pm] <BenUrban> i thought 2.6.5 failed first...
[4:18pm] <woodmouse> yes
[4:18pm] <woodmouse> AAAAH I CAN'T DELETE 2.6.5B!!!?
[4:18pm] <BenUrban> any plans to move to a more functional format?
[4:19pm] <woodmouse> I... hate... windows...
[4:19pm] <Zefz> Hmm, there has been many discussions about that before.
[4:19pm] <Zefz> Like lua...
[4:19pm] <BenUrban> any about lisp? :P
[4:19pm] <Zefz> But I think the EgoScript system works just fine. It is pretty easy to figure out and can work wonders.
[4:20pm] <BenUrban> hmm
[4:20pm] <Zefz> There aren't really any bugs in the system.
[4:20pm] <woodmouse> None version works... :(
[4:20pm] <woodmouse> BUAAAA!!!
[4:20pm] <Zefz> Just that it is easy to mess it up if you are not experienced with it.
[4:20pm] <woodmouse> even 2.2.2 is broken!
[4:20pm] <Zefz> Restart your pc.
[4:20pm] <woodmouse> ok
[4:20pm] <woodmouse> I be bac
[4:20pm] woodmouse (woodmouse@E626A52B.9F246672.9DA1BFA7.IP) left the chat room. (Client exited)
[4:20pm] <BenUrban> not in the system per se, but it does seem to be rather convoluted
[4:21pm] <BenUrban> sort of like a cross between BASIC and assembly langauge
[4:21pm] <BenUrban> never thought i'd say that, about anything
[4:22pm] <Zefz> It is pretty self-explanatory in my opinion.
[4:22pm] <BenUrban> hmm
[4:22pm] <BenUrban> it is also quite inefficient
[4:22pm] <BenUrban> with enormous amounts of code duplication
[4:22pm] <Zefz> I had no problems learning it pretty quickly. The case sensitiviness and spaces sensitiviness has been a bit of a problem though...
[4:23pm] <Zefz> The development version has HUGE improvements to the system :P
[4:23pm] <BenUrban> really? how so?
[4:23pm] <Zefz> (Actually everything there is a gigantic improvement)
[4:23pm] <Zefz> optimized, faster and properly structured
[4:23pm] <BenUrban> heh, except that tranches can jump over walls
[4:23pm] <Zefz> (Codewise)
[4:23pm] <Zefz> Yep, it has some physics issues
[4:24pm] <Zefz> If we could get it stable Egoboo would step up a revolutionary progression.
[4:25pm] woodmouse (woodmouse@E626A52B.9F246672.9DA1BFA7.IP) joined the chat room.
[4:25pm] woodmouse was promoted to operator by you.
[4:25pm] <woodmouse> IT... WORKS!!!! :D
[4:25pm] <BenUrban> any luck?
[4:25pm] <BenUrban> heh
[4:25pm] <BenUrban> all of them?
[4:25pm] <woodmouse> YAY!!!
[4:25pm] <woodmouse> 2.6.5
[4:25pm] <woodmouse> I haven't tried others yet
[4:25pm] <BenUrban> have fun then :)
[4:26pm] <woodmouse> :)
[4:26pm] <BenUrban> so anyway...
[4:26pm] <woodmouse> Oh, and Zefz.
[4:26pm] <woodmouse> Are you going to make a huuuuuuuge module?
[4:26pm] <BenUrban> i was thinking that maybe instead of executing a whole script for each object for each frame, scripts could use callbacks instead
[4:27pm] <BenUrban> for instance, a simple transition would be to enclose everything in an existing script in an OnIdle block or something
[4:28pm] <BenUrban> then the script could be migrated to have callbacks like OnBumped, or OnAttacked, etc.
[4:28pm] <BenUrban> with parameters to tell the script who bumped or who attacked
[4:28pm] <BenUrban> that way the guard inside the paladin order couldn't prevent me from entering :P
[4:28pm] <woodmouse> 2.6.5b works too! :D
[4:29pm] <Zefz> @woodmouse: isn't bishopia big enough for you ? :)
[4:29pm] <woodmouse> @Zefz: No. :P
[4:29pm] <Zefz> @ben how did you enter then? magic?
[4:30pm] <BenUrban> waiting until the soldier moved far enough away that the gate recognized that i was bumping it
[4:30pm] <Zefz> Redoing the script system would mean redoing every AI that is in the game!
[4:30pm] <woodmouse> @Zefz: Bishopia Capital is 500x500 or something? Biggest is 255x255 in EgoMap right?
[4:30pm] <Zefz> (over 300 .txt files probably)
[4:30pm] <BenUrban> next, arbitrary variables could be introduced...
[4:30pm] <BenUrban> see, that's the thing
[4:31pm] <BenUrban> many of those AIs have a lot of common components
[4:31pm] <Zefz> Yes, much is duplicated.
[4:31pm] <BenUrban> part of the function transition would be adding inheritance
[4:31pm] <Zefz> It is also something we want to fix in development versions.
[4:31pm] <BenUrban> then a script would only need to implement functions that are different
[4:31pm] <woodmouse> @Zefz: I have an idea for a script command: IfHitsImpassable
[4:32pm] <Zefz> First of all we want to remove .obj copies of the same object in every module! (enough with one sword.obj for all modules)
[4:32pm] <Zefz> Which does what?
[4:32pm] <woodmouse> It would make things happen from
[4:32pm] <Zefz> I thought of SetTargetToLastItemUsed
[4:32pm] <woodmouse> hitting walls for example
[4:32pm] <woodmouse> I think it would be useful in some cases
[4:33pm] <woodmouse> if someoen wants to make a module that changes or something
[4:33pm] <woodmouse> Ugh... WC!!!!
[4:33pm] <BenUrban> after arbitrary variables, perhaps builtin functions could get direct parameters, instead of the tmp stuff...
[4:33pm] <Zefz> Hmm.
[4:34pm] <BenUrban> then some could start taking string arguments, replacing the functionality currently provided by messages.txt
[4:34pm] <Zefz> You think of tmpx, tmpy, tmpdistance, etc.?
[4:34pm] <BenUrban> yeah, those
[4:34pm] <BenUrban> and...
[4:34pm] <BenUrban> (drumroll please)
[4:34pm] <Zefz> And string arguments would be good though.
[4:34pm] <BenUrban> with strings, slots could be eliminated!
[4:34pm] <Zefz> *drum roll*
[4:35pm] <Zefz> Using a string to define which object to spawn?
[4:35pm] <BenUrban> no need to limit characters to 9 clots, etc
[4:35pm] <BenUrban> yes
[4:35pm] <Zefz> "book.obj" instead of 128
[4:35pm] <BenUrban> exactly
[4:35pm] <BenUrban> 127 :P
[4:35pm] <Zefz> Ah ;)
[4:35pm] <woodmouse> 126
[4:35pm] <woodmouse> xD
[4:35pm] <woodmouse> not
[4:35pm] <BenUrban> of course, then, objects could easily all be put in one place
[4:35pm] <Zefz> I think birdsey has already implemented strings isntead of slots in the trunk
[4:35pm] <BenUrban> ooh
[4:36pm] <Zefz> And was placing all objects into one folder
[4:36pm] <Zefz> he was talking about it and that it worked :)
[4:36pm] <BenUrban> nice
[4:36pm] <woodmouse> oooh
[4:36pm] <woodmouse> really nice
[4:36pm] <Zefz> I am not sure about the specifics though... I wait for the day it will get stable enough.
[4:36pm] <BenUrban> of course, after all that, loops could be implemented...then persistent state...etc.
[4:37pm] <BenUrban> and by that time, it may as well be done in a real language :P
[4:37pm] <Zefz> But strings in the script language is something that should have been in there long ago
[4:37pm] <BenUrban> indeed
[4:37pm] <woodmouse> could it someday be possible to have things that can be done in Wesnoth?
[4:37pm] <BenUrban> such as?
[4:37pm] <woodmouse> I mean, stepping somewhere causes things come
[4:37pm] <woodmouse> I mean
[4:37pm] <woodmouse> more easily
[4:37pm] <Zefz> It is very stupid to link it through a different txt file
[4:37pm] <woodmouse> I mean, coordinatesd
[4:38pm] <BenUrban> huh?
[4:38pm] <Zefz> That is what passages are for.
[4:38pm] <woodmouse> yes, but it could be more accurate
[4:38pm] <woodmouse> to use coords
[4:39pm] <Zefz> You could use that too with the script language
[4:39pm] <Zefz> GetTileXY
[4:39pm] <Zefz> tmpx = blah
[4:39pm] <Zefz> tmpy = blah
[4:39pm] <woodmouse> oh
[4:39pm] <Zefz> etc.
[4:39pm] <woodmouse> oooh
[4:39pm] <BenUrban> while i'm at it, might it be a good idea to add a dot syntax to the current script system? (tmp.x instead of tmpx, for instance)
[4:39pm] <BenUrban> i think it would make things more clear
[4:40pm] <Zefz> hmm
[4:40pm] <BenUrban> and probably easier to implement in the backend
[4:40pm] <BenUrban> obviously a simple script could make the conversion
[4:40pm] <Zefz> That would again force us to rewrite like 400 .txt files
[4:40pm] <BenUrban> heh
[4:40pm] » BenUrban <-- psychic
[4:40pm] <woodmouse> uh
[4:40pm] <Zefz> Unless we somehow make it also backwards compitable
[4:40pm] <Zefz> both tmpx and tmp.x work
[4:41pm] <BenUrban> that would be good for a few versions
[4:41pm] <BenUrban> witha warning or something
[4:41pm] <BenUrban> incremental changes ftw
[4:43pm] <BenUrban> anyway, i think these sorts of changes are best done while a project has relatively few users
[4:44pm] <BenUrban> and a relatively small body of content
[4:44pm] <Zefz> I suggest we wait improving or adding to the source until we get it stable first =)
[4:44pm] <Zefz> The old egoboo project died due "feature creep"
[4:44pm] <BenUrban> hmm
[4:44pm] <BenUrban> was not aware of that
[4:45pm] <Zefz> I was there on the team
[4:45pm] <BenUrban> ah
[4:45pm] <Zefz> Egoboo died away 2 years or so
[4:45pm] <Zefz> I am the only lasting member...
[4:45pm] » BenUrban sheds a tear
[4:46pm] <woodmouse> That's... sad
[4:47pm] <Zefz> Hehe
[4:47pm] <Zefz> I have no plans to leave until Egoboo is finished into state 3.0
[4:47pm] <Zefz> I still have my storyline to finish and to get the trunk stable.
[4:48pm] <woodmouse> well
[4:48pm] <woodmouse> so...
[4:48pm] <woodmouse> you are going after 3.0? :(
[4:48pm] <woodmouse> ;_;
[4:48pm] <BenUrban> awwww
[4:48pm] » BenUrban sheds another tear
[4:49pm] <Zefz> I currently have no plans to leave.
[4:49pm] <woodmouse> :D
[4:49pm] <Zefz> But I promised I would not leave at all until the game was in a finished state.
[4:49pm] <Zefz> (3.0)
[4:50pm] <woodmouse> Still...
[4:50pm] <woodmouse> that does'nt take that much time
[4:50pm] <woodmouse> I mean, who then makes new release?
[4:50pm] <Zefz> A couple of years maybe?
[4:50pm] <woodmouse> Purple? Chainsaw? Birdsey?
[4:50pm] <woodmouse> Oh.
[4:50pm] <woodmouse> Does it take that long time?
[4:50pm] <Zefz> Well maybe it is the final release. Only new content will be made by players. (mods, levels, etc.)
[4:51pm] <woodmouse> ;_;
[4:51pm] <woodmouse> sad
[4:51pm] <Zefz> Depends on when the code gets stable.
[4:51pm] <BenUrban> hmm
[4:51pm] <BenUrban> speaking of content
[4:51pm] <BenUrban> is there a repository for the content?
[4:51pm] <Zefz> datafiles?
[4:51pm] <BenUrban> yeah
[4:51pm] <Zefz> That has been suggested before, but never implemented.
[4:51pm] <Zefz> Do you think it would be useful?
[4:52pm] <BenUrban> so it's just a zip file?
[4:52pm] <Zefz> It would be like... huge.
[4:52pm] <BenUrban> indeed it would
[4:52pm] <woodmouse> ?
[4:52pm] <Zefz> Right now the datafiles are only in the binary release or in the linux.tar
[4:52pm] <BenUrban> but maybe sourceforge can handle it?
[4:53pm] <Zefz> Hmm, depends on if their SVN has a storage limit.
[4:53pm] <BenUrban> iirc it does, but it can be increased when requested
[4:54pm] <Zefz> Hmmm...
[4:54pm] <Zefz> It would only be needed if multiple developers work with the datafiles at the same time.
[4:55pm] <BenUrban> well
[4:55pm] <Zefz> Right now I am the only one doing that.
[4:55pm] <BenUrban> might be helpful at least for the scripts
[4:55pm] <BenUrban> the biggest datafiles are music, right?
[4:55pm] <BenUrban> the rest is small images, models, meshes, and text, isn't it?
[4:55pm] <woodmouse> @Zefz: Is [HMAG] used now in 2.6.5b?
[4:55pm] <Zefz> Yes
[4:55pm] <woodmouse> ok
[4:56pm] <woodmouse> I'm making a new class
[4:56pm] <Zefz> (to both of you)
[4:56pm] <woodmouse> PHARAOH!!!
[4:56pm] <woodmouse> *tadaa*
[4:56pm] <Zefz> Sounds like a Hero Class
[4:56pm] <woodmouse> yea
[4:56pm] <BenUrban> then maybe the music would be left out, or it would simply not change often
[4:56pm] <woodmouse> for Paladin
[4:56pm] <Zefz> Well, music only is like 25% of the game
[4:57pm] <Zefz> While all the time new modules add like 5% more space (10 mb)
[4:57pm] <BenUrban> but there are other uses for having datafiles under version control
[4:57pm] <Zefz> We could make music optional download.
[4:57pm] <woodmouse> @Zefz: Do I need to use particles too?
[4:57pm] <Zefz> And with birdsey's new object loading system
[4:57pm] <BenUrban> for instance, if someone wants to get a single file from the devpack, right now they have to download the whole thing
[4:57pm] <Zefz> We would like reduce the number of files by as much as 2/3 maybe
[4:58pm] <Zefz> The devpack is easy to access though. Almost everyone knows how to do it
[4:58pm] <Zefz> Working with SVN requires a little experience.
[4:58pm] <BenUrban> well
[4:58pm] <BenUrban> accessing the web interface is easier
[4:59pm] <Zefz> Ah yeah, that one is pretty easy... if you want to download a single file only.
[4:59pm] <BenUrban> and releases could be made to coincide eith releases for egoboo
[4:59pm] <BenUrban> *with
[4:59pm] <BenUrban> so it wouldn't be any more difficult
[5:00pm] <Zefz> I see what you mean.
[5:00pm] <Zefz> But anyways I cannot do it right where I am now. The only internet access I have this year is on public computers
[5:00pm] <Zefz> But i have to go now
[5:00pm] <BenUrban> ah
[5:00pm] <BenUrban> ok
[5:00pm] <Zefz> C ya folks
[5:00pm] <woodmouse> ah
[5:00pm] <BenUrban> cya
[5:00pm] <woodmouse> bye
[5:01pm] <woodmouse> SEE YOU!!!!

[5:01pm] <BenUrban> fascinating onversation
[5:01pm] <BenUrban> conversation too
[5:02pm] <woodmouse> ?
[5:03pm] <BenUrban> typo
[5:03pm] <woodmouse> AAAAAAAAA!!!!
[5:03pm] <woodmouse> I just noticed...
[5:03pm] <woodmouse> I said...
[5:03pm] <woodmouse> PALADIN!!!
[5:03pm] <woodmouse> UAAA!
[5:03pm] <BenUrban> wondered about that
[5:04pm] <woodmouse> I have been saying Palsin for soooo long time... ;_;
[5:04pm] <woodmouse> and now...
[5:04pm] <woodmouse> M_M
[5:04pm] <woodmouse> XD
[5:04pm] <BenUrban> paladins don't make good pharoahs imo
[5:04pm] <BenUrban> bah i have no idea how to spell pharoahs
[5:05pm] <woodmouse> well
[5:05pm] <woodmouse> they will just... turn to pharaohs
[5:06pm] <woodmouse> I mean, is there any more fitting class?
[5:06pm] <BenUrban> hmm
[5:06pm] <BenUrban> well, paladins are supposed to be pure and holy
[5:06pm] <woodmouse> yea
[5:06pm] <BenUrban> and therefore humble
[5:07pm] <woodmouse> hmm
[5:07pm] <woodmouse> well
[5:07pm] <BenUrban> perhaps a soldier?
[5:07pm] <woodmouse> hmmm maybe
[5:07pm] <BenUrban> or archaeologist :P
[5:07pm] <woodmouse> then pharaoh shouldn't have divine magic
[5:07pm] <BenUrban> doesn't his starter have a pyramid?
[5:07pm] <woodmouse> yea

Is there a reason why none of the chatlogs have me in them? Or do you just forget? Or do you just "forget"?

You're just never there when anything interesting or funny happens, I guess.
