The first day every other message was starred. Now it's like one in 80

I meant in chat

git commit -m "Added newline at end of file to make it 81 commits"

We haven't had any starts recently

@EthanBierlein nah :D

tempted to push commit to make a one-letter change

[ShearOfDoom/Cactus] ShearOfDoom pushed commit 8b1a6e12 to master: Refactored naming, and some wording.

You are our master wordsmith. :D

I'm actually really excited with this error-handling thing. It's a cool feature that we might want to advertise ("gracefully generates error logs when exceptions thrown, and gracefully notifies the user to send in the error report")

Wordsmithing required ^^^

They could mutate the GAME_MAP or something in an event handler

I think by constants that they mean literal stuff like PI = 3.14

@EthanBierlein ok

Also, RE: github.com/ShearOfDoom/Cactus/commit/…: I'm confused on if this is a constant or not. The class doesn't mutate itself, but it mutates the internal components

I see both sides of the issue rn and am not sure

@EthanBierlein thanks!

Can you do that? I don't have time right now (or I can do it myself later)

What about that?

@Doorknob was in here?

The Doorknob?

Announcement: When you write a class method, do, from .errors import cactus_class_method_exception_handle, next, put a decorator on the method: @cactus_class_method_exception_handle.

Announcement: Starting work on issue github.com/ShearOfDoom/Cactus/issues/41. Error handling FTW!

Announcement: Before making any changes to your local copy, make sure you update it in case any other commits have been made.

Please edit language settings and reboot.

I LOVE THE DELICIOUS DOCS ROM NOM CHOMP GNAW

Just commited syntax refactoring, please report any issues. You can now resume normal commiting on master.

have you thought about rendering the game as bitmap glyphs with OpenGL or similar? you could make each letter a sprite, and then you could easily manipulate color or even do animations with the letters

hey @EthanBierlein

That was just a strange idea I had. Nothing that I really considered. From looking at @Duga's source already, I'm not sure if I want to create a bot anyways...

@EthanBierlein why I wanted a review

@EthanBierlein question closed as too broad by Annonomus Penguin ♦ 5 seconds ago

Any pull request that you create can be merged as long as they work, are cleanly written, and have docstrings and such.

yes.

@EthanBierlein Yeah

(MLG Exclusive: SpaceInvaders vs XxIlluminatixX [wow/10] #rekt edition) wow

Immediate ideas that come to mind are A) A logo B) a test game, with at least thirty or so rooms C) Xpost it on Reddit

How should we promote Cactus to attract more visitors to the repo? We're currently at about 4 unique visitors per day, and we've had a total of 455 visitors, and 16 unique visitors, and I think it'd be good if we could attract more attention.

(sorry to ruin your expectations) I'm not a team of hard core hackers. I’m just a teenager student

Oh hell no. The live updates is the best part about it!

[newbiedoodle/CactusPrototype] Ping: Responsive is better than fast.

@EthanBierlein Except Cactus' views :-)

This looks pretty interesting.
