00:03.07a_meteoriteerr, serious Makefile problems in 2.0 SVN..
00:03.37a_meteoritefor some reason it doesn't generate any Makefile.in's and breaks during configure
00:04.25a_meteoritebrlcad: you're the makefile expert, right? :)

00:18.47JeffM2501cooleo
00:18.47a_meteoritefor some reason debian installed an old one in the repo...
00:19.01JeffM2501probably cus it's the "stable" one

00:23.59a_meteoriteAAA_awright: this wasn't from a package
00:24.05a_meteoriteit was from source..

01:31.44ConstitutionIsn't there a plugin that will kick bots? Botkicker or something?
01:33.07ConstitutionI'm looking for a way to prevent bots while still allowing admins to use /set.
01:34.22Tediusand you don't trust your admins to not type /set _disableBots 0 ?
01:34.52ConstitutionI'd prefer it to be enforced.
01:35.25Tediusenforced by the server and not the admins?
01:35.31ConstitutionCorrect.
01:35.32ConstitutionI will mod bzfs to prevent /unloadplugin, so no problems there.
01:36.57ConstitutionTedius: the server will actually be run by people other than me (on my box), but I want to have restrictions, such as no bots.
01:37.44TediusI guess I don't know why anyone would go through the trouble of writing the plug-in if it is so easily taken care of using other methods
01:37.47Tediusbut I don't know for sure
01:38.05Constitutioneasily taken care of by other methods? none that I know of
01:38.31TediusI mean the obvious _disableBots variable
01:39.51Tediusyou could cron it
01:40.28ConstitutionI thought about making an automated script sign on with bzadmin, but that's kind of messy
01:40.28Tediustheres  a plugin to have a bot regularly log in and run a command, right?
01:40.36Tediusyeah, messy
01:41.05Constitutionanyway I believe botkicker exists, but I can't find it on the forums
01:51.32AAA_awrightConstitution: it is much easier to disable the 'bot' bit in MsgEnter then it is to lock _disableBots to 1. I would be worried about other things.
01:52.15Constitutionhmm okay

03:23.11brlcadDaveman: pretty good
03:23.34brlcadoooh, a_meteorite .. you're not on svn head are you...
03:23.52a_meteoritebrlcad: yes I am..
03:23.54brlcadthat's the problem, the autogen.sh on the branch is out of date
03:24.05a_meteoriteoh
03:24.14a_meteoriteyeah, I was using 2.0
03:26.02a_meteoritethat might explain why plugin makefile.am is sorta borked... but this is also an old cvs (eek!)
03:26.20a_meteoritewon't link together my multiple source plugin anymore :\
03:28.01a_meteoriteif I mod makefile.am I get dozens of errors
03:28.20a_meteoriteand modding makefile doesn't produce any results (doesn't compile)
03:28.34brlcadif you mod makefile.am, you're supposed to re autogen.sh
03:28.39a_meteoriteoh
03:28.49brlcadand then rerun configure
03:31.06a_meteoritethat explains why the makefiles were breaking :)
03:35.38a_meteoritebrlcad: did that:
03:35.46a_meteoriteMaking all in Stats
03:35.46a_meteoriteMakefile:325: *** empty variable name.  Stop.
03:36.01a_meteoriteI re-ran ./autogen.sh and ./configure before make'ing
03:36.20a_meteoritethis is my home machine too, been compiling on it for 2-3 years fine :\
03:36.59brlcadwell, do you have an empty variable name?
03:37.38a_meteoriteline 325 is the second line:
03:37.39a_meteorite-I$(top_srcdir)/include: $(_I__top_srcdir__include_OBJECTS) $(_I__top_srcdir__include_DEPENDENCIES) -I$(top_srcdir)/.dirstamp
03:37.39a_meteorite$(LINK) -rpath $(libdir) $(_I__top_srcdir__include_LDFLAGS) $(_I__top_srcdir__include_OBJECTS) $(_I__top_srcdir__include_LIBADD) $(LIBS)
03:38.06a_meteoriteshould I pastebin the makefile?
03:38.11brlcadno
03:38.17brlcadmakefile is irrelevant
03:38.23a_meteoriteoh
03:38.27brlcadif you get an error, then something is wrong in the makefile.am
03:38.58a_meteoritek, I'll pastebin makefile.am..
03:39.28brlcadthe problems are not necessarily obvious, but if make complains about the makefile, that's usually the problem
03:39.37a_meteoritehttp://bzflag.pastebin.ca/478363
03:41.21brlcaddid autogen.sh complete sucessfully?
03:41.28a_meteoriteyes
03:41.38brlcadautoreconf or manual?
03:41.58a_meteoriteoooh wait
03:42.04brlcadpastebin verbose
03:42.12a_meteoriteerr, "Warning: autoreconf failed"
03:42.22a_meteoritesame error as before but on another computer..
03:42.30brlcadtherein lies the problem
03:42.36brlcadshould update to the newer autogen.sh
03:42.41brlcadpull it from head
03:42.52a_meteoritewill it work OK in 2.0?
03:43.09a_meteoriteor should I just get the SVN 2.0 branch? this is an old cvs :)
03:43.54brlcadit will work okay
03:43.59a_meteoritek
03:44.19brlcadit's project and version agnostic .. should work on any project that uses the gnu build system
03:44.40a_meteoriteI see

05:38.24The_Vaxorcistno, nobody's home
05:38.35daniel_jacksonoh ok
05:39.30daniel_jacksonno I was trouble shooting why tadd's server is down, I'm one of lodxcol's admin/owner
05:40.10daniel_jacksonthen I noticed that lodxcol has a subdomain of bzflag.org
05:40.13a_meteoritecomputers only do as they're told
05:40.19a_meteoriteso it's the own stupidity of the person who sets it up
05:40.27a_temp_distlodxcol said they were having compy problems - "bus error" and "wrong turn" sort of stuff
05:40.29a_meteorite^ quotable
05:40.35daniel_jacksonare you blaming tadd? lol
05:40.41a_meteoritedid he set it up?
05:40.43a_meteoriteif he did, yeah
05:41.23daniel_jacksonwell I'm going to try to show him the path to elightenment
05:41.31daniel_jacksonlol
05:42.27daniel_jacksonthe server is a mac g5, I think, but tadd know nothing about unix
05:42.29a_meteoriteConfucius says: Do not correct other people's wrongs in which your ultimate fate lies.
05:42.36a_meteoritewrong
05:42.37daniel_jacksonlol
05:42.46a_meteoritemac mini g4, 1gb ram
05:43.16a_meteoriteand he does know nothing about unix... or how computers operate...
05:43.21a_meteoriteshould I stop?
05:43.31a_meteoritecause I could like name a dozen things
05:43.59daniel_jacksonwell he has two one a g5 in Seattle and the mac mini in floriida
05:44.17daniel_jacksonthee one in seattle is in a datacenter
05:44.27a_meteoritewell, isn't that dandy?
05:45.20daniel_jacksonI can ping the machine that lodxcol's borrowing, but I guess all instances of bzfs crashed
05:45.39daniel_jacksonand tadd does run 2.0.9 on them
05:46.11daniel_jacksonI've told him that he needs to roll it back
05:46.31a_meteorite2.0.9's pros outweigh 2.0.8's
05:46.58daniel_jacksonI agree, but I'd rather have the stability
05:47.11a_meteoriteiirc, he said he went to 2.0.9 for a reason
05:47.22daniel_jacksonwho tadd?
05:47.27a_meteoriteyeah
05:47.51a_meteoritebunch of spam attacks a couple weeks ago, 2.0.8 is vulnerable. i think that's why he updated.
05:48.14daniel_jacksonwell he's got plenty of admin! lol
05:48.21a_meteoriteit's the unknown trick
05:48.26daniel_jacksonoh ok
05:48.27a_meteoriteyou can't ban it..
05:49.15daniel_jacksonwell I hope theres a 2.0.10 that fixes the stability problem
05:49.32a_meteoriteno 2.0.10 will be released
05:49.42a_meteoritethe devs have said it over and over
05:49.49a_meteoritenext release is 2.2
05:50.27daniel_jacksonwell I guess we go with the cron script to to restarts
05:51.17DavemanINDEED, DANIEL JACKSON.
05:51.22daniel_jacksonoh I just me a mass bzfs map config loader for unix
05:51.24a_meteorite...
05:51.33a_meteoriteDaveman: reason for the caps?
05:51.37a_temp_distlook at this plugin for restarts  http://my.bzflag.org/bb/viewtopic.php?t=7482&highlight=restart+server+empty
05:51.45daniel_jacksonemphasis
05:51.56a_meteoriteif the server crashes a plugin won't restart it
05:52.10a_temp_distthat's not quite true
05:52.22daniel_jacksonno turdy plugin keep it off from bzfs
05:52.38daniel_jacksonlol
05:52.41Davemanyay for plugins
05:53.04a_meteoritea_temp_dist: it is true.
05:53.06daniel_jacksonno I would just rather use the cron to check server status
05:53.17a_meteoriteif bzfs goes down with a bus error, everything stops. including events to plugins.
05:53.28a_meteoriteor segfault for that matter
05:53.37daniel_jacksonyep
05:53.57a_meteoritea cron script isn't even the best solution
05:54.11daniel_jacksonI just think he didn't see the  1st part of the conversation
05:54.12a_meteoriteuse a rotational intended shell script
05:54.33daniel_jacksonhuh "rotational intended"?
05:54.57a_meteoriterotationally intended.. stuff they use for rotations
05:55.11a_meteoriteam I talking too many riddles tonight? I can do better
05:55.19daniel_jacksonI'm not spinning the server
05:55.22daniel_jacksonnlol
05:55.23a_meteorite...
05:55.31a_meteoriterotation. think about it
05:55.45daniel_jacksonhow about incremental script
05:56.13daniel_jacksonor interval controlled script
05:56.19a_meteoriteseeing 1 added to x every loop is not interesting
05:56.59daniel_jacksonwell :P some of us like staring at progress bars too!
05:57.09daniel_jacksonlol
05:57.45daniel_jacksonI'm just trying to keep the script simplist
05:57.53daniel_jacksonsimplistic
05:57.59a_meteoritea script that starts up bzfs IS simplistic
05:58.28a_meteoritemake bzfs do -pid, check the pid file on every loop (10 second sleep) to see if the process still exists
05:58.41a_meteoriteif it doesn't, fire the bzfs command again
05:58.47a_meteoriteif it does, just keep going
05:59.02daniel_jacksonno one that may check " ps aux|grep bzfs|grep missilewar"
05:59.06CIA-2BZFlag: 03brlcad * r14199 10/trunk/bzflag/autogen.sh:
05:59.06CIA-2BZFlag: update form cad: allow the script to give version info regardless of whether

06:00.48a_meteoritethe forums are an indispensable valuable resource of knowledge which will engage our minds limitlessly
06:00.53daniel_jacksonif I get bent out of shape trying to make my script, I'll go there
06:01.59daniel_jacksonwell lets just say "if you can do something yourself, you may not need to ask for help"

19:42.14TheRedBaron?
19:42.20TheRedBaronis that a sincere question?
19:42.56CBGYes.
19:43.09CBGI don't see "rape" as a rude or offensive _word_ at all.
19:56.17JeffM2501CBG, your welcome to disagree
19:56.17TheRedBaronI'd say look at what the two words mean
19:56.18CBGI'm looking for some kind of reason why saying "rape" is likely to offend, when that _other word_ isn't.
19:56.18JeffM2501it's there use
19:56.18CBGOne word can ONLY be used in a very offensive and racist manner.
19:56.18JeffM2501nether of them has a posttive use in the game, and generaly only can be used for negative conotation
19:56.18CBGThe other could be used in a variety of ways, some offensive, many not.
19:56.18JeffM2501but I'm open to discussion no moving ot down.
19:56.18JeffM2501that rule is the hardest one to define sadly
19:56.18JeffM2501that's just a prelimiary list
19:56.42JeffM2501for something that dosn't even exist yet
19:57.09CBG"Did you hear about the rape victim in the UK?" compared to "You n.....".
19:57.35JeffM2501and that belongs in game, HOW?
19:57.56JeffM2501but I see your point

19:57.59JeffM2501lets jsut stop using the word here, ok?
19:57.59CBGPeople do have general conversations in-game.
19:57.59CBGThe r-word? Fine...
19:57.59JeffM2501true
19:58.00JeffM2501and I see your point
19:58.00CBGI agree, the game is not for extended general conversations... but it does happen, a lot.
19:58.00JeffM2501ok
19:59.32tsCBG: Heh, I think general conversation in-game is the most used type of communication during playing
19:59.32JeffM2501I don't want the word list to be too big
19:59.32JeffM2501I'd be ok with removing that from the list
19:59.32JeffM2501as the bad uses of it woudl also come under the personal attacking use.
19:59.32JeffM2501I think the others are prety cut and dry tho
19:59.32CBGts: it's a while since I played - and I used to play almost exclusively in the leagues. most conversation is stuff like "nice shot" and talk about matches. when the next match will be... who it will be against... who won the last one... etc.
19:59.32blast007I have people come on and discuss with someone else how they got banned at another server...
19:59.32tsCBG: Heh, yeah during league play people try to concentrate on playing but between the matches there is much "off-topic" stuff
20:00.13CBGCurrent affairs? A lot of players are too young and too stupid to spell "current" let alone discuss such issues amongst themselves, surely..?
