01:26.27tcmdo we have an infobox for battle
01:26.29tcms
01:35.41tcmcan i create an infobox for battles
01:39.07Wormy__We have an infobox for wars, which you could probably make use of http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Infobox_war
01:39.48tcmhmm
01:40.19tcmi'll play around with this
01:41.17Wormy__yeah, most people do for single battles I think.  If not, I suppose one could talk about modifying the infobox war template to be more general; or you could create a template for yourself.
01:41.34Wormy__but try playing around with it first
02:07.10DrodoEmpireThat template can do for single battles, I actually did use it for that very purpose once
02:07.46DrodoEmpirehttp://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:06/08/2814 <- here
02:12.00DrodoEmpireReally the war template could do for either-- I'm not certain what you'd change
02:12.12DrodoEmpireBesides perhaps removing provocation for individual battles

13:11.36GhelaeHi
13:11.41NeonPandaso I've been playing Titanfall 2, and it reminds me of two things: I hate short time-to-death shooters, and I really miss Chromehounds
13:14.38HachimanChromehounds?
13:16.51DrodoEmpireHachiman: Well, I've been up since 2 AM >.<
13:17.05DrodoEmpireI went to bed pretty early, didn't really sleep well, so I got up super early
13:17.12NeonPandaonly the single greatest mech-based shooter ever to come out of not Japan's anime-mecha monopoly
13:19.31NeonPandaI am of course a massive fanboy of the game so I'm not going to start gushing over it, but needless to say I wish they made a sequel
13:22.59NeonPandait had a lot of very interesting design concepts, took the side of making things as realistic as possible (once you got past the giant war machines part), and the modular construction opened up a LOT of really neat design ideas that you just don't see in other games

13:25.20Wormy_hi
13:25.29Monethi
13:25.41GhelaeHi
13:26.23NeonPandaone in particular being that since each weapon cluster had its own camera, a lot of people designed their houndss to carry an armour plate out the front of the hound, using the weapon cameras to steer- this in particular became a big thing with sniper-RT hounds
13:27.10NeonPandayou could also orient the individual weapons in a weapon cluster (since each weapon is placed individually and connected into a cluster separately) so that their recoil pattern behaved in different ways
13:29.03MonetWhat's this?
13:29.20NeonPandaChromeHounds
13:29.29NeonPandaand old game I used to play and still fanboy over
13:31.01HachimanIt sounds pretty damn neat
13:31.38NeonPandait was, tell me if I'm rambling on because that is a high probability occurrance
13:33.03NeonPandathe thing that really got me was it was a long time-to-kill game- with the exception of a handful of very specific circumstances, it often took a few minutes to take out a Hound, and because of that there was a genuine interest in target priority- knock out their weapons and they can't shoot, knock out their motive unit and they can't move properly, knock out their generator and the whole thing's fucked
13:33.41MonetReminds me of mechwarrior.
13:34.29NeonPandaSame genre, vastly superior in many respects
13:34.46NeonPandathat being from my perspective, of course people who prefer faster time-to-kill games will disagree
13:36.37NeonPandain CH each component had a Hull and Systems "HP bar," each damaged in different proportions by different munitions types, get systems to zero and it stops functioning, get hull to zero and it explodes, taking anything it's connected to with it- thus you often had snipers taking anti-systems munitions and eliminating priority systems before the battle started proper
13:37.42NeonPandafor my part I mostly carried explosive weapons due to my Role-Type (read: battlefield role), so I tended to do more systems damage than hull, with the exception of the heavy cannon I used for finishing people off
13:39.48NeonPandaI basically had a role analogous to an MMO tank, that being draw fire to me and survive it long enough for my allies to clean up, but I contributed in my own way with splash systems damage to knock out weapon clusters as best I can
13:43.55ImperiosHachiman: Is there a name for the native Zazane galaxy?
13:44.15HachimanSawblade Cloud
13:44.44MonetI'm sure mechwarrior used the component health system

13:55.01Wormy_I like that article, she wasn't looking for evidence of x, she was looking for evidence that decides between alternatives.  Without that, evidence of something wrong with physical models of the universe can be evidence for all sorts of things.  Still one can't expect these nuances to go through the media

18:02.24MonetAny suggestions where the next chapter could go?
18:02.47OluapPlayerI like the names
18:02.56OluapPlayerGreat Dark Scarring, Sword of the Divines Convocation
18:04.25OluapPlayerAs for the next chapter, probably should have Arsac deliver a blow strong enough for Kalorun to back down and decide to attack the Imperium, leading to the final rp
18:07.01MonetHmm. maybe she cracks a particular planet that was important for Kalorun's war effort.
18:08.36OluapPlayerShe could take down one of the Chosen's primary shipyards
18:09.16MonetOne of the deep enough assaults the chapter mentions.
18:10.33MonetGimme a planet and installation name.
18:10.39OluapPlayerone sec

18:11.51OluapPlayerPlanet Kainulcen, Nolgrull Construct

18:21.27Wormy_2016 was actually a very good year in many respects
18:22.04Wormy_http://imgur.com/gallery/954mR
18:23.31OluapPlayerIt was also a very bad years in many respects
18:24.14Moneteh, yin and yang.
18:24.53MonetThis was the year we got photographs of Pluto.
18:25.17OluapPlayerJust saying good things don't invalidate the bad ones
18:25.54Wormy_The conflicts this year have been a humanitarian crisis, though they have been ongoing for a number of years.  I think the whole meme about 2016 tends to concentrate on celebrities, well 2017 going to be worse as there is a rising trend of baby boomers getting old
18:27.00MonetYeah, we had a lot of celebrity deaths in 2016.
18:27.37Wormy_looking at 2014, 2015 etc. each year has a rising trend
18:27.45TechnobliteratorIt was a toxic year
18:27.47OluapPlayerbaby boomers
18:27.49Technobliteratorwith horrible music
18:27.53OluapPlayerWhat on earth is that
18:27.53Technobliteratorbut one or two good games
18:27.53MonetBut as mentioned the other week, awards shows tend to end on a list of people in the media industry that passed away. Soem famous soem not os famous.
18:27.58Xho2017's gonna make 2016 look like a walk in the park
18:28.13TechnobliteratorWe have not even faced the consequences of 2016 yet

18:28.36MonetOluapPlayer: baby Boomer = Someone born in the population explosion after WWII.
18:28.50OluapPlayerYes, toxic year
18:29.02XhoOluapPlayer: You're a bad year                        FOR YOU
18:29.04OluapPlayerGood things having happened doesn't mean bad things didn't
18:29.09Wormy_Oluap:  People born in the population boom proceeding WW2
18:29.28Wormy_1665 *was* a toxic year
18:29.57MonetWe're jsut saying 2016 wasn't all shit.
18:30.10TechnobliteratorApparently good news was that China made some good headway towards clean energy at least
18:30.12Tek0516http://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/you-have-to-love-me
18:30.16ImpyDroidBut
18:30.23ImpyDroidWe took Palmyra and Aleppo
18:30.28ImpyDroidAnd Trump won
18:30.35ImpyDroid...Okay we lost Palmyra but still
18:30.45OluapPlayermeme man is one of the worst things to happen this year
18:30.49TechnobliteratorBut there was a ridiculous rise in hate crimes
18:31.13XhoBrexit and Trump in one year
18:31.19XhoIt proves that the white man is the worst ethnicity
18:31.29TechnobliteratorI didn't really care about either of those
18:31.33MonetTBF I recall after Obama was elected, conservatives were getting together and burning effegies of him.
18:31.35TechnobliteratorI cared about the rise in hate crimes after
18:32.42Wormy_I feel as though Trump and Brexit aren't nearly as bad as whats going on in some parts of the world and we tend to forget
18:32.58Wormy_"waagh I live in fascism now"
18:33.00OluapPlayerBrazil is still going through political and economical trouble
18:33.02Wormy_fuk off
18:33.08Wormy_(not to anyone here)
18:33.11OluapPlayerI've been unable to find a job for a year
18:33.21OluapPlayerSo yes 2016 overall was a pretty bad year as far as I'm concerned
18:33.42MonetContrary to the image, the president is not all-powerful.
18:33.47Xho2016 made me realise how much I want to die but that appears to have been a trend
18:35.25MonetThe establishment of America followed the English Civil War - the colonists who wrote the declaration of independence and the US constitution were already fine with a monarch who was more controlled than a controller.
18:35.59MonetSo it's a bit nutty they'd found a republic where whatever the president says will happen.
18:36.16OluapPlayerWhether he has power or not is inconsequential, his insane followers are rampant across the internet already
18:36.34*** join/#sporewiki drom (~drom@unaffiliated/drom)
18:36.36MonetI think they were always there.
18:36.52Wormy_The insane followers of just about anyone are also rampant on the internet
18:37.16MonetThey just didn't have the voice they do now. And IIRC Trump has gone o nrecord telling his followers to calm the hell down.
18:37.18OluapPlayerThings are only gonna get more crigneworthy as men in suits become memespouters more and more frequently now that they know it works
18:37.33OluapPlayercringe even
18:37.46Wormy_I think Trump merely exposed the prejudices already there, rather than created it.  Its just that society has let a vacuum form for these people to exploit
18:37.49XhoMemes are the language of the dying soul
18:38.28Monethttp://specials-images.forbesimg.com/imageserve/5638e0f8e4b0ffa7afe6a0ab/320x486.jpg?fit=scale&background=000000 I'd rather blame this guy - he's the father of the president being a man who kisses babies and quips pop culture.
18:38.50XhoAnd shags random stateswomen
18:38.55Wormy_lol
18:39.15OluapPlayercould be worse            could be shagging pigs
18:39.57Wormy_and then  try to ban porn
18:39.59XhoWell good thing is he isn't our PM anymore
18:40.04XhoNow it's Margaret Thatcher Mk. II
18:40.05MonetWe all do stupid things when drunk or forced to perform frat-boy initiation rituals.
18:40.13Wormy_He wants to be general of NATO, however
18:40.57Wormy_Tbf all these elites have initiation rituals
18:41.12Wormy_They're all probably shagging pigs hur
18:41.32MonetJust because you are hazed doesn't mean you liked it.
18:41.34Xhohttp://www.deviantart.com/art/2016-In-a-Nutshell-654372960 I pretty much summarised my 2016 with this screenshot

18:44.02XhoMy uni application is done and I've got an offer but I'm waiting on this damn exam board to get back to me
18:44.25Wormy_That will take time, this time of year I imagine
18:44.35MonetI had a studio internship, saw a concert, visited Birmingham, created a monster in my CG course, attended an EVE tournament and got a year of living independently.

18:45.37OluapPlayerroads were so bad they deleted themselves from existence
18:45.46MonetSometimes the traffic AI in Skylines is just dumb.
18:45.55Wormy_I'm pretty happy with my degree.  I managed to make a website and physics-based animations for my former lecturers, and have an ongoing study into game engines used in scientific research

18:46.37MonetTechnobliterator: Have a look at motorway junctions.
18:46.48Monetif that's where the problem is.
18:47.30Technobliteratorlike, even the first road that connects to the highway is a problem for me
18:47.52OluapPlayerur bad at [whatever game you're on about]
18:48.27TechnobliteratorCities: Skylines
18:49.56MonetWell defien "the roads are awful"
18:50.00Monetdefine*
18:50.28TechnobliteratorI keep running out of space to build the right stuff
18:51.00MonetAre you buildign curved or straight roads and how far from the motorway are you buildign your city?
18:52.38TechnobliteratorRidiculously far from the motorway
18:52.45Technobliteratorlike right next to the water
18:53.11Wormy_can you make the roads follow the water?
18:53.35MonetBuild closer to the motorway.
18:54.38MonetIndustry also prefers easy access to the motorway. They don't mind being very near it.
18:56.12TechnobliteratorI hate how it gives you two motorway access roads right next to each other
18:57.04MonetThose motorway access roads are one lane.
18:57.59MonetThere's two because one road leads on to the moorway the other leads off it.
18:59.07MonetWhich oen is which depends on the status of the "left hand drive" toggle available during city creation.
19:00.06Tek0516I usually plan around it becoming a highway. Build a path then branch off of it and build there, then upgrade this to a highway later on
19:02.24MonetYou could just do this https://i.stack.imgur.com/fYhA2m.jpg

19:45.29OluapPlayerCaviar has color?
19:45.38ImpyDroidIt is black
19:46.41dromImpyDroid: Or to be more specific: "fiskrom" transliteraled as "fish roe" or actually "roe"

20:41.55XhoHachiman: Why is Oluap so unhappy nowadays
20:42.07HachimanLife circumstances I can only assume
20:46.05HachimanImperios: https://scontent-amt2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/15826468_1416115685079000_4420001941134208234_n.jpg?oh=afddcfafb68a7c25bed6df82958fae1c&oe=58E9D7F0
20:48.20XhoI don't know what to do with the Kicath really
20:48.26XhoI kind of want to re-implement them
20:48.29XhoAnd also remove them entirely
20:49.23XhoI did have an idea the other week
20:49.48HachimanOh?
20:50.12XhoWhat the idea was that the Kicath become a much, much older power in the Gigaquadrant but now their species is in their waning phase and what was once their power is governed by other species instead
20:50.46XhoSo they remain prominent but the Kicath themselves are ancient and rare
20:51.33XhoSomething along the lines of warring with Zhulultu progenies caused their influence to fracture in times long gone
20:51.33HachimanI thought they were already ancient
20:51.54XhoWell currently they're 170,000 years, I thought about moving them as a spacefaring race back to 700,000 years
20:52.08XhoOr perhaps older
20:52.40XhoBut their Republic is now mostly governed by a larger number of other species and their overall political influence no longer really exists
20:53.48XhoAnother idea is that they're ancient to a point where no one knows how old they really are since they're not prominent enough to ascertain their age

20:54.33XhoThat way I make a larger base for other races while the Kicath are in the background
20:54.38Xhoreturn of player

20:54.43OluapPlayera
20:54.49Xhoreturn of playera
20:55.34XhoTalking about how I can put the Kicath back in fiction; basic idea atm is that the Kicath are no longer the centrepoint of the faction and instead a larger number of species are
20:56.06XhoIn a way the focus would be more like how the Cyrannian Empire or Republic works
20:56.33dromhttp://i.imgur.com/XKtWZME.png
20:56.42OluapPlayerRight
20:57.02XhoSo in turn the Kicath become super ancient and their influence is no longer what it used to be
20:58.47XhoAs for the Agents, not sure
20:59.04XhoI could completely rework them into having solely 24 Agents
21:00.15XhoAnd they become some kind of ancient esoteric order that operate into the present day
21:01.06XhoI think that works
21:01.35dromI'm looking forward into your efforts, Xho.
21:01.51XhoI'd need to make a number of races to fill in the void
21:03.24dromThe void left by the Kicath, I assume?
21:04.12XhoThem as a larger populace
21:04.23XhoI don't know how many Kicath would be left in the modern day
21:04.29XhoProbably not a good idea to give that a number
21:05.53dromI wouldn't dare to give my factions an exact number for their population either
21:26.51ImperiosXho: So Old People: the Alliance
21:26.55Xhomore or les
21:26.56Xhoss
21:26.59Xhos
21:27.00Imperiosmaybe they're a dying race?
21:27.03dromsssss
21:27.06XhoThat's the idea
21:27.09XhoThey're few in number
21:27.31dromI'm playing with the idea of Kurinnurii being in a stage of stagnation or degeneration.
21:28.26dromI got this idea after a talk about humanity's future
21:28.44dromWhether we will be in a technological stagnation or degeneration.
21:28.47HachimanI often get torn between wanting to write about hot alien babes and also space dwarves
21:29.06ImperiosHachiman: Bring back the Eirini
21:29.07Imperiossssssssss
21:29.07dromHachiman: Which is most popular though?
21:29.29ImperiosXho: What if their reproductive system is actuall fucked up somehow
21:29.38XhoMaking them too much like the Krogan now
21:29.45HachimanKicath are inbred
21:29.53ImperiosOr maybe they all suffer from some sort of disease
21:30.11ImperiosHell what if they use cybernetics to combat the species-wide disease that is slowly devouring them
21:31.32HachimanIf space dwarves are ever made, wonder how close to actual dwarves I should make them
21:31.34XhoIf anything it would be essenec related
21:31.37Xhoessence
21:31.45XhoHachiman: how about           not dwarves kek

21:35.22HachimanI don't mean height; as dwarves, they'd naturally be shorter than humans
21:35.39HachimanI meant as in, should be they roughly humanoid-esque mammal aliens or
21:35.43dromOf course, I was jesting by drawing a comparison.
21:35.57dromHachiman: Bunny-men
21:36.03HachimanBunny men already exist
21:36.20HachimanI kinda don't want to make them reptilian because we already have a LOT of reptilian aliens
21:36.36dromTry making cephalopods
21:36.40drom(squids)
21:36.43XhoWhat you should do is have them appear in holograms as massive aliens but are tiny in person
21:36.51Hachiman>dwarf beards are actually tendrils

21:37.23dromThere is actually a such race made by Ryuujin
21:37.41dromThey are tiny as fuck, but they operate exosuits to make them look more intimidating
21:38.06HachimanEh I didn't intend tiny
21:38.11HachimanLike roughly human chest height
21:38.38dromIt might be a nice touch to give them a good ol touch of natural engineering skills
21:38.45HachimanOf course

22:17.54OluapPlayerHim not being a Kicath would break canon
22:18.01Xhoright
22:18.06OluapPlayerYou can take full control of him anyway
22:18.15XhoNot sure what I'd do with Mu
22:18.24XhoThe less I control the better
22:24.35XhoThe current idea is that pre-existing Kicathian characters will have their personalities converted into Nax characters
22:24.57XhoSo the only canon changing is their species

23:09.29dromHachiman: I meant as in the typical personality of a tumblrite
23:10.01Dillonator407Hi...am I supposed to say hi again each time or is the initial one sufficient?
23:10.23XhoOnce is enough usually
23:10.28dromUp to you. It is however the norm to greet once
23:10.45Dillonator407Thanks I'm not used to IRC
23:11.29dromHachiman: I was suggested by someone else to make the half-elven bard a female.
23:11.51dromImagine the marsh hell
23:12.11HachimanGo with what you feel would be necessary for the character; personally, I do not consider sex / gender to usually be too significant components of their character
23:13.02Xhohttp://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/2/27/Nax2017.png/revision/latest?cb=20161231231058 So I made the Nax again
23:13.34dromFair enough, Hachiman.
23:13.57Dillonator407I'm not sure what a Nax is, but it's an impressive looking creature
23:14.09XhoIt's a bit of a story really
23:14.17XhoI'm reworking my main fiction right down to the core
23:14.31Dillonator407You are?
23:14.57XhoBasic story is that the Nax are replacing the Kicath which are my main alien race in fiction
23:15.03dromBut those height modifiers are going to drive me nuts

23:15.22XhoDrom: welcome to inches
23:15.24Dillonator407I see...I don't really have much of a fiction yet

23:16.49XhoBut why
23:16.57dromBecause
23:16.57XhoOur mile is 1.6 km or thereabouts
23:17.02Dillonator407By the way, I might as well ask: Since I'm new to the whole fiction universe thing, is there any advice I should know?
23:17.04dromTo fit them in our signs
23:17.34XhoDillonator407: The only thing I can suggest is ask as many users as possible to collaborate with
