IRC log for #bzflag on 20110630

00:00.41blast007BulletCatcher: is the GLEW bug in the build system fixed yet?
00:01.51JeffMhe cheezed out and copied the file into bzflag so I think it works now
00:01.58blast007oh that's right
00:02.16blast007jogged my memory.  and also, it doesn't copy now, it references the file directly
00:02.26JeffMgood
00:02.39blast007(and he also did the same for ServerLink.cxx for bzadmin)
00:05.33McSpiderI'll post a patch to sf with the fixes above.
00:06.28blast007ok

00:32.26blast007can someone shed some light onto getOldConfigFilename in src/bzflag/clientConfig.cxx where it says "// add in hostname on UNIX" ?  what operating systems would do that, or is that old irrelevant cruft?
00:36.49blast007not sure what systems/situations where getenv("HOST") would return something.  it doesn't on my Ubuntu system.
00:45.40blast007I don't really have a good selection of systems to try it on either..

00:48.59blast007guess it doesn't really matter since that looks like it should work okay
00:49.25blast007So.  Is there any outstanding issues besides the rabbit stuff?

00:55.38McSpidergetenv("HOST") returns null on macos.
00:58.22blast007it did the same on FreeBSD
00:58.34blast007maybe it's an IRIX thing ;)
00:58.43blast007or other forms of real UNIX
00:58.49McSpidermaybe
01:01.26Erroneousthat works outside of a shell?
01:01.35ErroneousI always thought it was a csh thing
01:02.07blast007shrugs
01:02.24blast007I was trying it inside a shell via echo $HOST was getting nothing
01:02.32McSpidergetenv("USER") works in C++
01:02.35blast007though I'm using dash or bash

01:06.40Erroneousyeah; on debian, echo $HOST returns the hostname from csh, but not from bash
01:08.01bryjenif it worked, it'd be useful on machines with shared /home but different video capabilities
01:08.04blast007so if you run BZFlag from csh, will it append the hostname to the configuration file?
01:08.10Erroneousno clue
01:08.35Erroneousbut that's pretty quirky behavior to depend on :)
01:09.26Erroneouscoincidentally, echo $HOSTNAME returns the hostname from bash, but NOT from csh ;)
01:09.34blast007heh
01:09.35bryjenheh
01:10.01bryjenis there a C library routine for this instead?

01:11.31bryjengethostname.  well, that's obvious enough ;)
01:11.33ErroneousANSI uname() and POSIX gethostname(), it looks like
01:13.12blast007Address::getHostName() is what was used previously for the email string generation (which makes a call to gethostname())
01:14.13bryjeni wonder the env var hackery predates that or not
01:17.58blast007echo $HOST on csh on Ubuntu doesn't work for me, though I might just be doing it wrong.. I'm not using csh as a login shell, I'm just running it myself manually from bash
01:19.10blast007tcsh does work with that though, it seems
01:20.16bryjenworks here. however, in bash HOSTNAME gives fully-qualified, and HOST in csh gives plain host name without domain name
01:20.17blast007and it DOES get that value when you run BZFlag from a shell that has HOST defined.
01:20.59blast007has a ~/.bzf/2.4/config.cfg.devbuntuvm now
01:23.23bryjenick. changes the filename extension.  i guess *nix is a bit less reliant on that tho.

03:50.14Thumper_More bugs: the logDetail plugin isn't logging chat anymore - only join events.  I'm out most of the day tomorrow and all weekend so I wont' have time to look at this
03:50.21Thumper_it worked earlier
03:51.01JeffMmeh we can ship with out that, just make sure it's in the list
03:51.26Thumper_but if it's missing plugin events (assuming it's that) it won't be just this plugin
03:51.43JeffMI did not remove any chat evens
03:51.45JeffMevents
03:51.53Thumper_no - but this was working a few days ago
03:52.20JeffMnobody should be checking in changes that big
03:53.09JeffMwhat rev did it work on ( guess)
03:53.50Thumper_checking...
04:00.58Thumper_JeffM: looks like I was wrong - it's not been logging player chat at all, I'll look at it tomorrow and it can be fixed after the release if it's just this plugin that is borked
04:01.18JeffMthat plugin was hella wierd, I probably screwed up in the upgrade of it
04:01.21Thumper_the server chat messages are there, just no player stuff (which is what I was trying to find for details of this rabbit bug)
04:01.35Thumper_I'll try to look at it tomrorow
04:01.44Thumper_after my 8AM dentist appt :-P
04:01.57JeffMtake a laptop do it during ;)
04:02.03Thumper_I'm away this weekend - will be back on Monday
04:02.19JeffMhas monday off
04:02.29Thumper_has Friday off
04:04.44CIA-5BZFlag: 03JeffM2501 * r22032 10/trunk/bzflag/plugins/logDetail/logDetail.cpp: plug-in wanted raw chat events but registered for filtered events.
04:04.45JeffMthat may help
04:05.07Thumper_hmm ok
04:05.41JeffMthe event handler had a switch looking for raw chat, but it registered for filtered, so it would have gotten filtered and ignored them
04:05.56JeffMlogs want raw away so you can know who has a pottymouth
04:07.45Thumper_it has both (or used to) so it could flag when the filter is triggered
04:07.59Thumper_I'll test it
04:08.33JeffMit has an event for when a message is filtered
04:08.47JeffMit dosn't need both to compare them or anything
04:08.58JeffMso it should work as it used to now
04:09.25Thumper_now it gets double logs for broadcasts
04:09.39JeffMwell we are on the right track then
04:09.42Thumper_I can look at it tomorrow
04:09.51JeffMgo to sleep
04:10.02Thumper_yup. gotta be up in 6 hours for the dentist. oh joy
04:10.14Thumper_thx jeff
04:10.34JeffMyeah it checks for server messages specificly
04:10.36JeffMgood luck
04:11.45CIA-5BZFlag: 03JeffM2501 * r22033 10/trunk/bzflag/plugins/logDetail/logDetail.cpp: ignore server messages in the chat event, they will be handled by the server message event.
04:11.52JeffMkerfixed
04:11.54JeffMmaybe
04:12.21Thumper_nope :)
04:12.39JeffMhmmm then that may be a bzfs bug
04:12.42Thumper_goes to sleep
04:12.43JeffMI will look while you slumber
04:16.16JeffMhmm that should have worked
04:17.57JeffMhmm what kind of thing in bzfs would send out a server message?
04:18.08JeffMlagwarn?
04:20.19JeffMhmm actualy I can't see how he would be getting double messages in the first place

06:33.51Ebertyou could tell me faster than i can figure it out (if anyones around) since the mom is around
06:45.25FlashIIRC, you need a paper form signed
06:45.39Ebertoh, i was afraid of that
06:46.07Eberthm, it disturbs me how kids are left unsupervised on the internet
06:46.14Ebertand how fast they can type
06:47.13FlashTry starting here: http://my.bzflag.org/bb/ucp.php?mode=register

06:52.05Ebertyea ive done what i could, he keeps bugging sig
06:52.31Ebertproblem is he already registered a name (hitting the over 1998 button) and wanted to keep it
06:53.22Eberthitting age before 1998 ugh im tired
06:54.00Flashyup. lot's of kids figure "just lie about your age". It's the "what can I get away with" culture
06:54.23Ebertthese 10 year olds can do anything, its typing class instead of cursive class
06:55.24Ebertmy kid will learn on a typewriter to type ^^
06:55.44Ebertor a really restricted computer
07:13.20Ebertthx flash
07:13.23Flashwhat's a typwriter?
07:13.44Ebertthe thing with cobwebs on it in the thrift store
07:23.24Ebertthe boy's mom says there is no address on the form
07:29.56FlashI know that JeffM knows about it. Guess you'll have to wait for morning
07:30.15ConstitutionEbert: you can have her send TimRiker an email
07:30.34Constitutionwith the youngster's callsign, giving permission
07:30.37Ebertemail to get contact info?
07:31.29Constitutionno, just have her email him giving us permission to store information on behalf of the minor (full name and callsign is all that's required, I believe)
07:31.33Eberti guess that will put him on the COPPA list right
07:31.41Constitutionyes
07:32.12Constitutionin other news, need Snow Leopard, Leopard, and Tiger testers: http://beta.bzflag.bz/builds/2.3.x/MacOSX/BZFlag-2.3.17-RC1.zip

07:57.16Flashdo I need that specific distro, or can I just use my trunk build?
07:59.49Constitutionspecifically, I was wondering if that build I made (on 10.6) will run on older versions
08:00.06Constitutionpeople can always compile their own, but I need people to test that specific build

16:40.15kierrafeels fine
16:40.17mdskpr_good
16:40.27mdskpr_RC3? or final
16:40.30JeffMmakes a note of kierra's feelings
16:40.33JeffMI'd like final
16:40.40JeffMdo we have anything major outstanding?
16:42.53JeffMI'd like to get BulletCatcher's input before
17:04.31blast007JeffM: Tim had done some changes on the debian stuff
17:04.48JeffMok, just curious if those were all the changes needed
17:09.24BulletCatcherThe BZBB thread suggests that we still have a regression in rabbit chase.
17:09.47JeffMwe have not published a version with the last set of fixes to it
17:10.04JeffMdo you want to do an RC3 to be sure?
17:10.21JeffMcus the last set of testing I heard was that it had the same problems as 2.0
17:11.05JeffMthere were some cases that missed the team change and we got a patch to fix those
17:11.33BulletCatcherIf we can get reliable confirmation that it is fixed as of r22037 then I am ok for release, but maybe we need to do RC2 to get broad enough testing.
17:11.49JeffMlets do an RC2 now
17:11.51JeffMcan't hurt
17:12.09JeffMwant to do the bumping honors?
17:12.09BulletCatcherk
17:12.12BulletCatchersure
17:12.33JeffMI won't cry too much if we have to release this weekend
17:12.40BulletCatcherreviews r22025
17:12.41blast007I'll throw up a couple more servers
17:13.06blast007also, we should note that RC2 will upgrade the 2.0.x configuration file - so people should test that out as well by deleting their 2.4 configuration
17:13.11JeffMtho if we do this weekend I have a name in mind that would be totaly inapropriate :)
17:13.49BulletCatcherAre we ready to clear the top of the BUGS file?
17:14.45JeffMdid we decide that the bracket thing is not a bug?
17:15.22JeffMcus we can remove the radar zoom "bug" cus we removed that feature
17:15.29BulletCatcherI'm not sure either way, and I don't have a second computer to test with at the moment.
17:15.37JeffMthen just add a new feature to the roadmap
17:15.48BulletCatcherThe radar bug is definitely "solved" for now.
17:15.53JeffMyeah
17:16.18JeffMso pull that, remove the section for "must be fixed" and leave the bracket one I think
17:17.17JeffMhave you tried Constitution's mac build?
17:17.45BulletCatcherNo.  I left my Mac at the office yesterday.
17:17.47BulletCatcherI'll bring it home tonight.
17:17.51JeffMk
17:18.03JeffMhe did the last release so I expect his to work
17:18.17blast007is that build intel only?
17:18.22JeffMyeah
17:18.27blast007k, then nvm ;)
17:18.30JeffMand that's fine for an inital package
17:18.34blast007has a PPC eMac here
17:18.43blast007though it might be 10.3 :P

17:40.05Thumper_the rabbit mode stuff hasn't been fixed yet has it?
17:40.19Thumper_(pausing as a the rabbit doesn't change to some other hunter)
17:40.42JeffMwe had some changes for it and the person that did those changes said that it behaved the same way as 2.0.x
17:40.48JeffMso that's what this RC is to test
17:41.00JeffMso some testing on that was done
17:41.01Thumper_ok
17:41.21JeffMMcSpider did the changes and ran tets after it
17:41.25blast007JeffM: done :)
17:41.49joevanoJeffM: done... twice it would seem
17:41.54blast007lol
17:42.01PimpinellaJeffM: i did some testing on that bracket thing and i really believe it's not a bug
17:42.03McSpiderI'm running another test right now
17:42.14Pimpinellanot sure if it's a feature, but no bug ;)
17:42.35JeffMok
17:43.11JeffMand who said that bzflag developers could not be motivated :)
17:44.21joevanoIf it's not a bug it must be a feature (and even if it is a bug, we can spin it)! -- Microsoft
17:44.43BulletCatcherWe have made 640 commits for 2.3 so far.
17:44.56BulletCatcherNo, that's not right.
17:44.57JeffMnot too bad
17:45.17blast007640 should be enough for anybody
17:45.27BulletCatcher:-)
17:45.43BulletCatcher(640 includes the 2.99 branch, too)
17:45.49blast007yeah, figured  :)
17:46.14JeffMok then you all suck.. get back to work ;)
17:46.34BulletCatcherThere we go.  523 commits on the 2.3 trunk.
17:46.41JeffMok you suck less
17:46.46blast007that's over 500!
17:47.02JeffMsuch a bad show
17:47.06Pimpinellaeven over 510!
17:47.26blast007too bad it wasn't 9001 commits.  then I could yell "it's over NINE THOUSAND!"
17:47.37JeffMthen I would have to kick you
17:47.43blast007hehehe
17:47.43BulletCatcher523 commits in 7 weeks.
17:47.48JeffM2005 called, they want there meme back
17:48.11JeffMnow a bzflag tank on nyan cat.. that's class ;)
17:48.19joevanohow long for the previous 523 commits?
17:48.26JeffMseven years
17:48.31blast007hehe
17:48.33joevanolol
17:49.27JeffMhmm gotta make the first real server side player bot taunt real players with mimes, "come at me bro", "forever alone"
17:49.30bryjenhttp://xkcd.com/875
17:50.04JeffMI loved that one
17:50.20BulletCatcherSources are up now.
17:50.22blast007JeffM: if it taunted you with mimes, it would either put you in an invisible box, or it would start throwing electronic mail at other tanks
17:50.42JeffMwell no we make them shoot mimes
17:50.48JeffMand taunt mems
17:51.58JeffMmaking a robot tank that said all the stuff the adventure sphere says would be fun too
17:52.02JeffMor the space sphere
17:52.55blast007I had talking -solo bots years ago ;)  back in 1.7 iirc

18:10.16randomparticleandroid's next release is entitled "Ice Cream Sandwich". do we have a fancy name for the next bzflag release?
18:13.13blast007"I think we can put our differences behind us, for science....you monster"
18:14.58Thumper_McSpider: There is a problem with rabbit mode in the latest release candidate
18:15.19Thumper_if the rabbit kills himself and you wait until the exploding sequences completes before some other hunter spawns
18:15.23Thumper_then the rabbit doesn't change
18:15.34Thumper_(ie the old dead idle rabbit is still the rabbit)
18:15.50Thumper_and rabbit selection seems to be after the exploding tank part sequence, not immediately when the rabbit dies
18:16.01Thumper_so there's a small window where there is no rabbit right after the rabbit is killed
18:16.26McSpideryeah I noticed that, but in my testing 2.0.17 acts the same.
18:16.41Thumper_hmmm okay, didn't try that
18:17.05McSpiderI've been testing awhile now and 2.0.17 (r21334) acts the same as 2.3 (r22039)
18:17.41McSpiderI'f the hunter respawns imediately while/after the rabbit dies there is a slight delay and then he will get rabbit.
18:18.07McSpiderbut if he waits~15 sec and then respawns the rabbit doesn't change till the rabbit spawns
18:18.12Thumper_I'll try to verify the behaviour is the same today and get back to you
18:18.18McSpiderok
18:18.19Thumper_if it is then it should be fine as is for 2.4
18:18.20JeffMthat's all I care about now, we can update the rabbit logic in a point release
18:18.53CIA-5BZFlag: 03JeffM2501 07http://my.bzflag.org * r7789 10/w/Development_RoadMap: bunnies
18:19.09JeffMrandomparticle, the current front runner is "wake the dead"
18:20.18randomparticlelike this jimmy hendrix thing
18:20.34JeffMcould also do "freedom isn't free"
18:21.27JeffMor "A plan that came together"
18:21.39randomparticlei never really understood this "free as in beer"
18:22.18JeffMsomeone can give you free beer, but it's just a gift, you don't own the concept of beer
18:22.22JeffMyou are just lucky
18:22.42JeffMfree beer can be used as a marketing ploy
18:22.47JeffMcus hey... free beer
18:23.01randomparticlebut it never is free is it?
18:23.07JeffMthats the point
18:23.16JeffMsoftware that is free as in beer isn't realy "free"
18:23.27randomparticleso he could have said "free as in not free"
18:23.39JeffMbut he didn't
18:23.50randomparticlehe's quite a riddler old stallman
18:24.10JeffMhe has his opinions
18:25.09randomparticleslightly related to which: is bzflag LGPL?
18:25.14JeffMyes
18:25.19JeffMdo you never read any of our docs?
18:25.26randomparticlenot really :)
18:25.34JeffMread, it's the new hotness
18:25.39blast007or any of our source files....
18:25.50blast007it's kinda at the top of all of them
18:25.58JeffMI think it's even on the main webpage
18:26.02randomparticlei never read the tops. i just dive right into the middle
18:26.14JeffMthat explains a lot
18:26.21blast007or maybe it isn't.. just says to read COPYING
18:26.59JeffMit used to be GPL but Tim relicensed it
18:27.02Thumper_McSpider: I get the same rabbit behaviour in 2.0.17 too
18:27.04Thumper_thanks
18:27.18McSpideryep
18:27.19JeffMso you think we are good Thumper_ ?
18:27.25Thumper_yes
18:27.30JeffMcool
18:27.38randomparticle"the file named COPYING that should have accompanied this file"
18:27.41randomparticlethat's a bit non-commital
18:27.58randomparticlewhat if it didn't accompany the file?
18:28.15JeffMthen the person you got the file from should provide it on request
18:28.56JeffMthats the LGPLs deal, it dosn't specify a distrobution method, just that you have to provide license and sources on request
18:30.07JeffMthat's the part apple dosn't like
18:31.42JeffMtho at least they released the NDA on the iOS SDK
18:32.34randomparticlei just put not before everything
18:33.06Thumper_"Twitching corpse" - we're not sure if it's because it is coming back to life (yet) or Gimli has his axe embedded in its nervous system
18:33.28randomparticlee.g., apple did not write to me confirming they knew about a bug a year ago
18:33.39randomparticlewhich bug remains unfixed to this day
18:41.21randomparticlewhat's a really good quality workstation type pc?

19:38.01blast007McSpider: oh neat...
19:38.14mdskpr_thats not good is it?
19:38.22blast007no, that is not good
19:38.46blast007laser + unlimited shots + spinning around + not dying from own laser = bad
19:39.27blast007JeffM / BulletCatcher / Thumper_: Thoughts on that?
19:41.04Thumper_blast007: yeah that's probably bad :)
19:41.34Thumper_25% of my deaths are shooting self ... so my score will greatly improve ;)
19:42.52McSpiderIt's easy to fix.
19:44.25blast007yeah, I imagine so :)
19:44.57blast007I'll play with that when I get home
19:45.01blast007can't test a client here
19:47.22blast007oh cool, segfault :)
19:48.22blast007in the TimeLimit plugin.
19:54.01JeffMyeah we should probably make it so you can always kill yoursef
19:54.31JeffMI'm not against having a no suicide option, but I think it should be seperate
19:55.52JeffMcan someone fix that?
19:56.25McSpideryep, I have a patch
19:56.35McSpideralso do you want the SR bug fixed also?
19:56.36JeffMyou sure you don't want commit?
19:56.54JeffMwhat is the issue with SR?
19:57.05McSpiderI'm not very used to svn, I dont want to screw anything
19:57.22McSpidersr kills teammates with noteamKills
19:57.28JeffMahh ok
19:57.36JeffMyeah throw those in a patch and I'll apply em
19:57.40JeffMbump the proto version too
19:57.45JeffMand the minor
19:58.02JeffMand you can't screw anything with svn, it has history
19:59.21McSpiderso BZ_PROTO_VERSION & BZ_MINOR_VERSION
19:59.27McSpideror BZ_REV
19:59.28JeffMyes
19:59.31JeffMrev
19:59.42JeffMminor should be 3 untill we ship
20:00.42blast007might as well pull the RC 2 then since it won't be compatible :)
20:01.02blast007at least with my servers - they update within a few minutes of any commit
20:01.14JeffMwe can do an RC 3 today :)
20:01.49blast007the TimeLimit plugin is crashing when trying to free a regex
20:01.56blast007line 64 is where it dies
20:03.34JeffMor we can apply the patch and bump after we find other issues
20:03.46JeffMcus it's client only, updates to servers wont' change anything
20:06.50ConstitutionJeffM: beta.bzflag.org is the new server where builds are posted?

20:14.47JeffMshould I send a message to tim to have him make wiki.bzflag.org and mainsite.bzflag.org so we can setup testing?
20:14.56blast007and then everything should be only available from a single domain.. right now we have google listings for stats.bzflag.org and bzbb.bzflag.org and my.bzflag.org all to the same pages
20:15.07JeffMyeah
20:15.32blast007I wouldn't bother with the mainsite one
