13:08
ok attaching them is NOT the smart solution
will break some stuff
good morning
13:26
@TheProgramm3r hey tp3
lol @ tp3
people are not bitching at me anymore when I play Cait
woot
does that mean you've gotten good?
had one support say he was sorry we weren't winning because I was playing well. He was fine; top/mid fucked it up
I'm better, that's for sure
she's got a good ult
just discovered shooting from bushes with hurricane
Yeah, I never pay attention to top/mid lanes when I'm on bot...
13:34
each shot is 3, each shot +2 count, headshot each shot.
yeah
normal shots are +1. 6 = headshot. bush shots +2
hurricane adds two shots (if there are two other targets nearby), each additional shot procs
so life steal and headshot kick ass from bushes.
holy shit man. can't wait to abuse that
13:36
people be all like "WTF?!?"
DJ'
DJ'
cait is something related to league of legends ?
yes
long-range high-speed damage dealer
caitlyn
DJ'
DJ'
boring MMO :P
not an MMO :P
LoL is a MOBA
much different. If you say boring MOBA, I won't argue, though privately I will think you're wrong. :)
DJ'
DJ'
13:42
need to google MOBA
Mulitplayer online battle arena
DJ'
DJ'
okay
5 v 5 fights, which is why it's not an MMO
:)
It's not massively-multiplayer, it's only 10 people.
like Awesomenauts which is pretty cool.
DJ'
DJ'
13:42
okay.. but still playing from tps is boring
i dislike MMO and other RTS for that
tps?
@Almo pretty awesome some might say
tps?
yeah awesomenauts is really nice
13:43
Third Person Shooter?
I like the cowboy
DJ'
DJ'
what view you say from top down like in mmo
dynamite the turrets
DJ'
DJ'
tps is wrong i know
third-person perspective
DJ'
DJ'
13:43
but something like that top down view
oh ok
or top-down
I see what you meant then
third person is something different then most RTS show you (which is top down)
And most MOBA's (not all though) have the viewpoint of a RTS
honestly, I don't mind it, since I was brought up on the Starcraft campaign...
13:44
Dead Nation proves by being 10x more frieghtening than Left 4 Dead that 3rd person can work much better than first person. :)
i would like to play a sps, second person shooter :L you see yourself from the point of view of others xD
hahaha
@RhysW I've seen those before...
@ShotgunNinja they EXIST? i was just making things up!
@RhysW They're mostly experimental games.
13:45
ahh
i would make it like a game where if you go into a sparesely populated area youre gonna find places its best to avoid as you wont be able to see yourself anymore xD
ooh, youre wrongfully framed for murder but have to kidnap people so that youre able to see yourself at all times to survive long enough to prove yourself innocent
13:58
why is it that when a game messes up physics i et the sudden urge to email the dev team and bitch about their shoddy job and yet I can't handle the most basic scenarios ?
@Wardy because you havent released yours
its companies like EA that gripe me the most
they dont develop anything
they simply distribute it and run shoddy servers
then blame you when you cant connect
and tracing packets clearly shows they screwed up a firewall setting or something
DJ'
DJ'
you trace their packets ?
no i trace packets from their client running on my machine to their server
@Wardy ug EA,
14:09
yeh ug indeed
about all you can say to prevent either total outrage or tears
yup, its an argument ive perfected over the years, just ug
hahah
14:35
I prefer buhhhhh
lol
Morning guys
DJ'
DJ'
battefield 3 online works great for me
I hate when I'm assigned tasks which teach me absolutely nothing about my company's software.
Been there, done that :p
Airport time bitches
14:50
Go ahead, rub it in :p
@VaughanHilts this is really odd without any context
coordinates fixed at a basic level for one interface element
has revealed a layering issue
z-order is done on a node-by-node basis
@VaughanHilts also Hi :P
making progress though
14:55
Hi :p
I'm on a coding spree today D=
somehow, I had managed to forget just how awesome this ad is. youtube.com/watch?v=bl2U1p3fVRk
@VaughanHilts good :D what you coding?
Work -_-
Ditto @VaughanHilts
Unfortunately. :p
15:01
But now I get to FLLLLYYYYYY
I need a hitman. Pronto.
@VaughanHilts oh, im sorry :/
I like work, it's okay :p
15:13
@VaughanHilts Hitman for?
whoever wrote this terrible code I need to maintain x.x
Is that yours?
Star for awesome player select screen
:DDD yay ty. Yes that's mine. I have to get the game done by the 18th
15:16
Oh, the guy over at new grounds.
@CodeAssassin they need more hats. (Accidental ninja edit)
Silly @Blue
DJ'
DJ'
lol
@CodeAssassin got an artist or you doing all your own pixel art?
@ToddersLegrande mine
15:22
The heck is the guy over at newgrounds doing then?
@Blue Todders was breathing over my shoulder when I made those
@VaughanHilts ??? >_> is someone copying my work LOL
@CodeAssassin I love the look and feel of the old school CRT shaders. Can't do a retro game without emulating the effects on oldschool TVs.
Fixed some of the more common issues: ageofgoblins.com/newkorbly/Web.html
2
Since many of the characters look the same
15:23
@Byte56 ninja'd
@VaughanHilts Oh it is =)
Basically that dude on newgrounds wasn't serious at all
The bastard
SO you stole his idea?
@VaughanHilts >_> NO
How so?
LOL
"Oh it is"
DJ'
DJ'
haha
15:24
"He wasn't serious at all"
That makes me think "I stole his idea" LOL
@VaughanHilts There is no code assassin on newgrounds. I go by grey stranger there
... Forget it lmao
NO
;~; u MAKE ME CONFUSe
flips tables
runs away
lol he actually left
Did anyone else get what I was trying to say? LOL
15:26
Nope
He posted saying he was working with some dude on his blog which had similar art, and said he sent him some artwork
And then he posted it here, with similar artwork.
And then I asked 'So what's he doing?' and he said 'Oh he wasn't serious
So I was like 'wait, did you just steal his idea and run then?'
@VaughanHilts I'm late to the game here but I totally understand
At least I'm not crazy haha
DJ'
DJ'
i get that you kind of caugth him red handed :D .. is he really 14 ?
V: [Link to blog post] I thought it was related
C: Oh it is but he wasn't serious
Blog: "... someone on newgrounds who was in need of a programmer to program a prototype" - reads like "Someone came to me with concept art and an idea for me to prototype for him"
15:30
Okay - THAT makes sense
@VaughanHilts das cold
HE RETURNS
Resulting assumption: Guy with concept art left and I [CodeAssassin] continued with the idea
no this game Im MAKING IS FOR A JAM
OMG
15:31
@CodeAssassin so it's not related to the blog post
LOL Make up your mind.
@ToddersLegrande praise the lord.
7 mins ago, by Code Assassin
@VaughanHilts Oh it is =)
This is where all the confusion began
15:32
I blame Vaughan
wtf
I asked a question and you answered wrong
@VaughanHilts (ง'̀-'́)ง
False. Black bear.
So, what have we learned? Answer correctly.
:D
15:33
@CodeAssassin New fave emote
@VaughanHilts to be fair you linked the whole blog and not a specific post
True dat
Well, he posted 'that guy wasn't serious at all' so there's defintely no context confusion :p
He KNEW what post I was talking about :p
True hat
I'm being bold and uploading my new site framework. It could fuck shit up yo
15:42
:D
It doesn't look much different but:
Page plugin enabled:
http://tompiddock.com/index.php?v=gallery
Page plugin enabled with external plugin:
http://tompiddock.com/index.php?v=home (blog post comes form the blog plugin
Page with a bit of everything:
http://tompiddock.com/index.php?v=gallery
It's getting there like
But more important is that uses a full config script instead of hard coded.
The title, tagline, copyright, content is all dynamic through plugins, most of which is retrieving from a database or using plugin modules to define content.
Plugins register via __autoload() so only what is needed is used.
I'm happy right now :D
I'm not sure about the title though
I wanted a geeky mashup like intelesenseless
hence the delgate(-ssen) thing
Anyway, I'm boarding my flight now, just wanted to update the site and chat.
15:56
Take care~ Safe flight home.
delegatessen?
del·i·ca·tes·sen
/ˌdelikəˈtesən/
Noun
A store selling cold cuts, cheeses, a variety of salads, etc.
A counter or section within a supermarket or grocery store at which a range of such foods is available.
for delegates...
:P
Not too catchy, sorry @Blue
I got lucky with intellisenseless. As soon as I thought of it I found it was purchased but not in use, found the owner via WHOIS diretory and asked him if I could buy it off of him after which he just gave it to me for free
LOL
Nice.
16:06
@JoshPetrie @Byte56 @Noctrine can we remove the starred post with the "this tutorial" link? It's not porn but I wouldn't call it safe for work.
Maybe I'm being too sensitive in this scenario. Just not what I expected when I clicked the link
@ToddersLegrande I dunno, does it have to be 'safe for work'?
Not that I'd want a mrker
So, @CodeAssassin, need another programmer for Shaded Chasm?
@VaughanHilts I personally don't really care about NSFW content except when its mysteriously disguised as SFW content
@ShotgunNinja LOL
@ShotgunNinja FOCUS.
16:10
@ShotgunNinja I dont run Shaded Chasm, Ryan does. He was main animator for a Virus named Tom.
(and other indie games)
@VaughanHilts Just kidding. I just wanted to say that it looks rather cool.
I already have my own game to worry about for now.
good man.
@ShotgunNinja August 22nd man. MINIMAL is back in development!
@CodeAssassin What's MINIMAL?
16:12
@VaughanHilts I wont keep it like that forever and yes someone has linked me that before lol
Bottom Most pic
@CodeAssassin whenever you get some time you may want to consider creating tags for your blog that you tag your stuff with because then you could link people to "All Minimal Posts" for example.
I might recommend a tag per game, per platform, and per jam plus whatever else for misc stuff like the backup software.
Yeah I need to be more organized lol
SEO!
lol xD
@CodeAssassin also... whats on the hipster's head?
@ToddersLegrande It's a blonde highlight
16:18
dont wanna get sued
WOAH
who said that
lolol I saw both of those
I did too
You worry about getting sued way too much
You'll get sued for worse things.
16:21
@VaughanHilts youll get sued for anything
@ToddersLegrande I guess it's removed already?
It was something offensive about gender confusion.
@Byte56 yeah someone got to it
@CodeAssassin this guy might sue you too
watch out
@ToddersLegrande ohshit
NO
THATS THE GUY
ohgod no
well now you're in trouble
he's probably going to get millions off of you for stealing his unique look of "blonde highlight"
Especially since its now confirmed
he'll hunt you down
and when you can't pay you'll owe him your first born child
16:26
And garnished wages for life.
FOR LIFE...
I should be studying, preparing for the upcoming exam... yet I'm wasting time trying to fix up my abomination of code
someone stop me
And what's more I haven't fixed anything, Instead I've created a for -> if -> for -> if abomination
SOMEONE STOP ME PLEASE
@MrPlow STAHP.
ok
cya
for real
16:36
LOL
Come back any time.
I mean - when your exam is done.
17:09
@VaughanHilts well that proved to be very effective xD
@VaughanHilts just the letter D?
17:46
@MrPlow all you have to do is obfuscate that into separate methods and you're set :P
depending on the code, possibly s/obfuscate/de-obfuscate/
I just started looking over a friend's Android project and the first thing I did was start cutting his functions with delusions of grandeur down to size.
@Jimmy I don't disagree :)
and also, I started implementing concerns as "systems" that kept collections of "things" and that communicated with each other via an event queue.
we need more nouns that don't mean anything. No one takes a variable called "thing" seriously but "entity" and "object" are already overloaded.
hmmm I call non-selectable environmental models doodads
since that's what they are in Blizzard map editors
18:02
yeah, I know what you mean
haha yeah (SC editor thing)
"Widget" and "Item" I do use frequently. That's probably about as much of an antipattern as naming something "______Manager"
which technically all our "Systems" could be Managers
ic. Mine don't really store, or manage thingamajigs, but they do process components
well, a "component" is a "part" of some "thing"
I'm fine with a piece of something being called "component/part/facet" that's usually enough.
18:09
yeah
Amsterdam connection made - Edinburgh departure delayed.
blame the terrorists
I blame no one but my psychic powers (I like Amsterdam airport - lots of cheese and chocolate.)
I went to H&M the other day. Isn't it a bit strange how they have like all the bright neon colors for women but most of their mens stuff is a choice between white, offwhite, charcoal, and black?
I was in H&M yesterday (never been in one before). My wife got 2 dresses for about $25 total. I was impressed
18:16
H&M is really cheap. But I find that their stuff tends to wear out kind of fast-ish.
It does but there is a few ranges and collections which do the other way round
generally about £50 odd and hardwaring
Just need to catch that in a sale and you're getting a really good bargain.
Did you think of me when you were in there :D You should have, I could get you 25% discount. (woop woop)
As a skinny guy, H&M is one of the few easily-available retailers that caters to "un-American" sizes.
Does thinking of you get the 25% discount or do we have to do something else?
It's magic.
They should see you and go " I see a top hat in your thoughts, have a discount"
Anyway, time to find the right gate and get in line. This flight is packed full.
18:36
:D
@VaughanHilts exam is on 4th of September so I've still got some "relaxed study" time
But I've got to start forcing myself to study more often
BACK TO STUDYING!
nope
can't learn anything if I don't feel like studying
18:51
Touche.
So yeah
I have no desire to work.
I wonder if I can get away with that..
You can if you're self employed
got my zorder sorting problem fixed, and the coordinates are working
now there's a subtle interface bug
:(
I've been refactoring my ECS and I managed to get rid of all the managers and remove all manager dependencies so that'll make code a bit clearer
18:57
@Almo HOW WILL YOU EVER LAUNCH D:
@MrPlow MAKE A GAME :D
This is not for Pandemic
We'll launch that one in good time
I'm currently working on another project
however I've now created a for->if->for->if monstrosity for both updating and rendering and I haven't found a way of shortening it
@VaughanHilts all in due time
which is unannounced again, so I can't say much :)
@Almo well none of this is relevant to me until you release a WP8 version anyway. So I expect I'll be able to play in 2020 or so
