Can anyone help me with the architecture of SAP(Sweep And Prune / Sort and Sweep).

Does anyone know anything here about SAP(Sweep And Prune / Sort and Sweep).

@TheMaskedRebel You don't need to keep repeating yourself - your last message is still the newest thing folks will see when joining the chat.

@DMGregory thanks for the advice :)

What kind of modulation are you looking for?

Ah, like a multiply blend mode? Cool, I didn't realize that would work in 32 bits

@Tyyppi_77 long time no see.

Well. You?

And that is...

RGBA color calculator?

Ah...

Logical errors

easiest to fix but the most devastating to the results.

Is that all the code?

Can you give me example input?

For the variable color

what is wrong @Tyyppi_77

what code do you use for that

@Tyyppi_77 ok... lemme think for 10 seconds

B(((color >> 24) & 0xff) / 255.0f), R(((color >> 16) & 0xff) / 255.0f), G(((color >> 8) & 0xff) / 255.0f), A(((color >> 0) & 0xff) / 255.0f) { }

that should do it

@Tyyppi_77 just try it...

Image?

Oh...

@TheMaskedRebel Yes, I know.

R(((color >> 16) & 0xff) / 255.0f), G(((color >> 8) & 0xff) / 255.0f), B(((color >> 24) & 0xff) / 255.0f), A(((color >> 0) & 0xff) / 255.0f) { }

Ah... I missed the commas

@Tyyppi_77 no...

25 < 34

8 < 11

19 < 22

Thats the alpha doing its work

Can you give a screenshot of the result?

Guess I can't say that untill I know he's the starrer.

@Tyyppi_77 uh...

5 == 0b0101

5 >> 1 == 0b0010

When you shift over, you are mixing the colors.

@TheMaskedRebel Highly irrelevant and not helpful.

@Tyyppi_77 You know that SE chat automatically inserts that image when someone types "this is fine", right?

wait it does

Hold on...

Huh.

I'm not going to do that at all.

@Tyyppi_77 Yes.... please don't use 1boxes

Okay, but that's still neither spam nor offensive. Please only use span/offensive flags to draw attention to serious breaches of the Be Nice policy.

@Tyyppi_77 The SE definition of "spam" is that it is the promotional kind, i.e. someone spamming links to a product or similar.

@ACuriousMind Tis true, nonetheless his messages appear to have no context at all.

@Tyyppi_77 I'm not saying that, I'm saying that that's not what the "spam/offensive" flag is for.

Oops wrong button

Use a mod flag

Alert a room owner or raise a custom moderator flag if you have concerns about content that's neither spam or offensive. There's a difference in how these flags are handled, the largest being that spam/offensive flags are shown without context to all 10k users across the network. So unless the message is really spam/offensive in isolation, that's not the right flag to use.

@Tyyppi_77 We can think that moderation is broken, but saying it to a mod doesn't help you in any way.

@Tyyppi_77 I'll agree that chat moderation is very suboptimal in some aspects, but I'd urge you to take a more constructive tone about it.

@Tyyppi_77 That's something for your room owners/the chat room to decide. Some chat rooms are fine with random messages and images, others are not. There's no overarching rule that would govern "frequently posting images".

@Tyyppi_77 No, but they can kick people and move messages, which is usually enough.

I think we should take this somewhere else?

Different room perhaps?

@FreezePhoenix I don't have anything more to add. Return to whatever your regular schedule is ;)

Ok then...

Lets move these messages somehwere.

Ok then. Thats the mods choice kinda

@Tyyppi_77 5 cents worth, same as mine and same as @ACuriousMind 's

Well yes.

@Tyyppi_77 check you are not averaging your text objects

I'm not sure what that means either

Please explain in detail

@Tyyppi_77 How do you render the text

@Tyyppi_77 yeh thats the issue

@Tyyppi_77 whistles that does not belong on GDSE meta

@Tyyppi_77 can I see your texture.

@Tyyppi_77 So it's opinionated :P So it belongs nowhere (JK)

LOL

that one white square at the top?

change it to blue

If you can

@Tyyppi_77 Can I see how it is shaded. It looks like the pixels have been averaged out.

\o/?

I instantly see the problem :P

Shifted

@Tyyppi_77 add that then

Oh.

@Tyyppi_77 your pixels are only half-rendered

@TheMaskedRebel spill it keep spilling

@Tyyppi_77 so I need to see all of your code to know where the problem is but try looking at your rendering

I recognize spaces :| but those aren't shapes

Well... H is consitently the same shape

W is too

@JoshPetrie nice answer

@TheMaskedRebel we'd like you stop posting images in the following situations:

1) It doesn't add at all to the conversation (Less than 3 keywords in the image match the siuation)

2) You are posting an image / message that is on the screen still from when you last posted it

3) It's not funny. If nobody finds it funny, then it is not contributing, and so fails the test specified in #1

4) The image is just... not appropriate. This one should be a nobrainer.

5) The image is offensive to more than 0% of the people in the room. This one is harder, and is a result of several edge cases

@Tyyppi_77 that's a different problem

The reasoning for the above 5 situations are as follows:

- If it doesn't contribute, it makes it harder to follow the flow of chat

- If it is offensive, it actively harms the community by turning away people who would otherwise look here for help.

- If it is not appropriate, it also turns away help seekers

@JoshPetrie do you have anything to add?

@Tyyppi_77 X_X don't feed the flame

6) Don't feed the flame. Nobody likes being poked at.

He wants to go where he can not get blamed for abusing chat features

yup

Well... you have some courage.

does anyone know what is wrong with my code

		public boolean isInBounds(Entity entity) {
			Sphere sphere = entity.getSphere();
			Vector3f sphereCenter = sphere.getCenter();

			float radius = sphere.getRadius();


			for(Vector4f plane : coeficients){
				Vector4f center = new Vector4f(sphereCenter.x,sphereCenter.y,sphereCenter.z,1);
				if(Vector4f.dot(center, plane) >= radius) return false;
			}
			return true;
		}

@Tyyppi_77 You could redo the whole code

@Tyyppi_77 I meant just the sampling

@TheMaskedRebel Can you describe what symptoms the patient is exhibiting?

Concrete test cases help. eg. When the inputs are [...] then I expect an output of [...] but instead I get an output of [...]
