| 00:00.00 | DeadZergling | less chance of terrible error too |
| 00:00.09 | DeadZergling | but lemonade stand is classic |
| 00:00.30 | Bounty | yeah, to bad is dehydrates you even more lol |
| 00:00.53 | DeadZergling | maybe, if a coke is partially hydrating |
| 00:00.55 | Bounty | it* |
| 00:00.59 | DeadZergling | anything fucking can be |
| 00:01.11 | Bounty | I mean, it is weird |
| 00:01.15 | DeadZergling | most caffeinated sugary gut buster ever |
| 00:01.23 | Bounty | the wife drinks like 10 bottles of dr pepper to 2 bottles of water a day |
| 00:01.34 | DeadZergling | unfortunate I actually prefer coke to other knock offs |
| 00:01.43 | Bounty | and shes still alive so... |
| 00:01.50 | DeadZergling | wife is way over 100 then, lol |
| 00:02.02 | Bounty | 100 what? lbs? |
| 00:02.20 | Bounty | she does drink diet (not that it matters) |
| 00:02.34 | DeadZergling | the 100 you said earlier, Bounty |
| 00:02.43 | Bounty | Oh, yeah |
| 00:02.51 | Bounty | and she drinks the mikes hard lemonade at night |
| 00:03.07 | DeadZergling | you are married to a sugar princess |
| 00:03.11 | Bounty | so.... either shes in the process of dieng or its BS lol |
| 00:03.34 | Bounty | Yeah, she def has a sweet tooth. |
| 00:03.55 | DeadZergling | this 100g also assumes a certain level of physical activity |
| 00:04.01 | DeadZergling | my guess is almost none, lol |
| 00:04.07 | Bounty | but yeah, I guess everyones health is diff to the extent none of these studies are true in a sense |
| 00:04.27 | DeadZergling | well like some studies show, everyone should drink 8-10 glasses of water a day |
| 00:04.31 | Bounty | Yeah, same with the daily value %'s in nutritional facts |
| 00:04.40 | DeadZergling | which is BS, should drink as much as you need to stay hydrated |
| 00:04.57 | DeadZergling | I think everyone has an idea of how much is too much |
| 00:05.03 | Bounty | There was another study that says Americans drink to much water |
| 00:05.03 | Bounty | haha |
| 00:05.10 | DeadZergling | it depends on the person much more than studies want to accept |
| 00:05.22 | Bounty | Personally, and I think you would agree, its obvious when you should drink some water |
| 00:05.32 | Bounty | Because you will just drink it |
| 00:05.33 | DeadZergling | but you know, hard to have anything conclusive with variables |
| 00:05.50 | Bounty | In the 90's we used to call it, being thirsty :) |
| 00:05.53 | DeadZergling | yea, when you feel like you are overheating, when your head is hurting |
| 00:06.03 | DeadZergling | oh yea, perhaps I should drink something |
| 00:06.23 | DeadZergling | some would greatly disagree with my method of deciding whether to bathe or not |
| 00:06.27 | DeadZergling | Am I itchy enough |
| 00:06.49 | Bounty | but yeah, that is a major flaw with establishing a health standard... human variations |
| 00:07.01 | Bounty | and its kind of the whole point of what makes us special lol |
| 00:07.16 | Bounty | on this planet at least. |
| 00:07.37 | Bounty | I typically go wit h the itchy or stank method |
| 00:07.50 | Bounty | you can be itchy and not stink, and stink but not itchy |
| 00:07.56 | Bounty | but they are both cues to take a shower lol |
| 00:08.13 | DeadZergling | yea, or at least have a baby wipe bath |
| 00:08.20 | Bounty | Only time I showered EVERY day was when I worked in a factory. |
| 00:08.34 | DeadZergling | which is really odd in the sense I find it more effective than actually taking a shower |
| 00:09.07 | Bounty | Well, baby wipes sterilize things so |
| 00:09.12 | DeadZergling | in fact, taking a shower tends to make me more prone to smell bad if I do anything physical whatsoever.... |
| 00:09.27 | DeadZergling | than if I just remained in my filth |
| 00:09.57 | Bounty | Women can go longer because they shave their armpits |
| 00:10.16 | Bounty | That is where that shit builds up bad lol |
| 00:10.32 | DeadZergling | depends on the woman |
| 00:10.43 | Bounty | I tried it once, and it worked |
| 00:10.48 | Bounty | no stank |
| 00:10.49 | DeadZergling | stank feminist for example, showing her independence, will let herself bloom into a hairy flower |
| 00:11.09 | Bounty | but its way to much work, so kudos to women for that |
| 00:11.13 | DeadZergling | it helps, but shaving there is a pita |
| 00:11.37 | Bounty | indeed |
| 00:11.55 | DeadZergling | I don't care if it is shaved or not personally |
| 00:12.01 | Bounty | Can't be more difficult than anus shaving though.... to me that seems impossible |
| 00:12.12 | DeadZergling | told my wife this repeatedly, I don't give a crap if she works out, shaves, etceteras, that is up to her |
| 00:12.33 | Bounty | I care if her legs and armpits are shaved, outside of that its w/e |
| 00:12.41 | DeadZergling | oh it is possible, just 50 % chance you also acquire hemmroids |
| 00:12.50 | Bounty | lol |
| 00:13.27 | DeadZergling | before I was married I was pickier, but I honestly just don't care now |
| 00:13.30 | Bounty | then again... my legs are italian style hairy |
| 00:13.44 | Bounty | and it keeps me warm so... perhaps I should not deny her that right lol |
| 00:13.53 | Bounty | Well yeah, thats usually how it goes. |
| 00:13.54 | DeadZergling | like I went over at length that I was afraid of getting poisoned from her having painted nails/toenails |
| 00:14.30 | Bounty | My wife does not wear any sort of makeup or stuff like that anymore |
| 00:14.34 | Bounty | and thank god |
| 00:14.41 | DeadZergling | if anything my preference is au naturale everything |
| 00:14.48 | Bounty | same |
| 00:14.56 | Bounty | most she ever wore was eye shadow though |
| 00:15.02 | Bounty | but that is the biggest one IMO |
| 00:15.10 | Bounty | in the sense of changing your facial appearance |
| 00:15.24 | DeadZergling | well depends on the woman's hair color, honestly |
| 00:15.36 | DeadZergling | blonde women look really, strange without it |
| 00:15.42 | Bounty | Eh, I guess it does add more contrast for blondes |
| 00:15.58 | DeadZergling | reds/blacks/brunettes, makeup only takes away |
| 00:16.05 | DeadZergling | but blondes I can somewhat understand |
| 00:16.08 | Bounty | Has the same effect on them all but I can see your point in the sense of without it they look weird |
| 00:16.36 | DeadZergling | is still better they not, gives them their own look, which isn't necessarily bad |
| 00:16.54 | DeadZergling | and using it at length causes serious issues without |
| 00:17.20 | Bounty | When someone sees you a certain way for X amount of time and you remove what was making you appear as X.... you look weird |
| 00:17.26 | Bounty | as opposed to if you had just started without it |
| 00:17.32 | Bounty | I think thats what it is |
| 00:17.51 | DeadZergling | no, it actually does have a detrimental effect, even though that is true |
| 00:18.05 | Bounty | Like if I go to get new glasses, they all look like shit to me because I've been wearing the same pair for like 8 years |
| 00:18.15 | DeadZergling | I know one manager I had, was an older blonde lady, always caked it on, saw her once without, it was like talking to skeletor's wife |
| 00:18.27 | Bounty | lol |
| 00:18.38 | Bounty | Reminds me of that reddit post awhile ago |
| 00:18.43 | Bounty | Pornstars with and without makeup |
| 00:18.52 | Bounty | Was the craziest shit I've ever seen |
| 00:19.04 | Bounty | Well no, Kathy Griffin with and without makeup was the craziest shit I've ever seen |
| 00:19.07 | DeadZergling | celebrity photos with and without photoshop, lol |
| 00:19.30 | Bounty | http://www.eonline.com/photos/622/stars-without-makeup/218161 |
| 00:19.33 | Bounty | look at that |
| 00:19.51 | Bounty | Not trying to be a dick but jesus christ |
| 00:20.09 | DeadZergling | i dunno, she looks terrible in both |
| 00:20.41 | Bounty | Part of me does not think the one on the right is her |
| 00:20.56 | Bounty | brb |
| 00:22.07 | DeadZergling | ah geez, future prostitute right here: http://www.eonline.com/photos/622/stars-without-makeup/206941 |
| 00:22.12 | DeadZergling | what a waste of a kid |
| 00:23.39 | DeadZergling | guess it doesn't help that I associate makeup with being a prostitute directly |
| 00:37.51 | DeadZergling | sigh, now if only I could solve a logic problem or two in my project, could use some insight on one if anyone is up for arguing data |
| 00:41.34 | Bounty | back |
| 00:42.09 | Bounty | She does not look that much diff in the non make up version DeadZergling lol |
| 00:42.40 | DeadZergling | she looks like a freaking pedo queen with the makeup on |
| 00:42.56 | Bounty | but yeah I'm just brainstorming shit I could do with these War3 models |
| 00:43.13 | DeadZergling | use them, and have them look that way? |
| 00:43.48 | Bounty | what? |
| 00:44.08 | DeadZergling | that is literally all you can do with a model, use it, and have something look like that model |
| 00:44.20 | Bounty | Of course |
| 00:44.27 | Bounty | but if they included textures and sound files... |
| 00:44.33 | Bounty | I can do an entire war3 themed game |
| 00:44.34 | DeadZergling | so, problem solved! |
| 00:44.37 | Bounty | much easier |
| 00:44.58 | Bounty | besides, I think the WoW model viewer is still broke and can't export models |
| 00:45.08 | DeadZergling | I can't imagine them not supplying textures/sounds for the models, is just, not cool, lol |
| 00:45.27 | Bounty | for textures I mean ground textures |
| 00:45.50 | Bounty | WoW models look more in place than the War3 assets shown |
| 00:45.55 | DeadZergling | oh those, I'm annoyed at SC2's texture/cliff look limits |
| 00:45.58 | Bounty | in terms of blending with SC2 terrain textures |
| 00:47.34 | DeadZergling | the limits make what I want to do require a lot more creativity |
| 00:47.34 | Bounty | So, I'm thinking I can either do a War3 Horror game (pretty awesome right?) or a GvT styled game with War3 theme |
| 00:47.36 | Bounty | for the KS |
| 00:48.06 | Bounty | Yeah but thats the awesome part right? Then everyone is asking you "How the hell did you do that?" =P |
| 00:48.14 | DeadZergling | that being, have a town area, a mine area, a farm/forest area, a city area, a mountain cliff area, a factory area, an undead area, an aquatic area, and a grass/technology area in one map |
| 00:48.32 | Bounty | You can do that |
| 00:48.56 | Bounty | That should be easy to figure out for you lol |
| 00:49.02 | DeadZergling | indeed I can, just be a lot easier to implement if I had more than 8 textures to play with, lol |
| 00:49.11 | Bounty | Ah |
| 00:49.21 | Bounty | Decals ;) |
| 00:49.27 | DeadZergling | I'm not saying undoable or any nonsense like that |
| 00:49.30 | Bounty | Thats all I'm going to say |
| 00:49.34 | DeadZergling | just more challenging to pull off |
| 00:50.05 | Bounty | Create a decal with the texture of terrain |
| 00:50.27 | Bounty | unlimited terrain textures |
| 00:51.04 | Bounty | not as easy to place as painting terrain textures though haha |
| 00:51.52 | DeadZergling | yea, I know of the technique, i just refuse to do it, too much work, lol |
| 00:53.10 | Bounty | Well then I am curious as to how you do it outside of creating a model for the terrain textures and using that |
| 00:54.18 | DeadZergling | basically it is me being really picky about the 8 textures I use, blending them together, and using doodads, a lot, lol |
| 00:55.29 | Bounty | Ah lol |
| 00:55.44 | Bounty | So not technically creative, more of a design creative |
| 00:55.45 | Bounty | nice |
| 00:55.52 | Bounty | That is a lot harder to pull off |
| 01:01.27 | DeadZergling | anyways, 2 completely useless comics: http://i.imgur.com/jDwA088.jpg && http://i.imgur.com/zd0wjEd.jpg |
| 01:01.44 | DeadZergling | no one wants to argue data, guess ArcanePariah and Dustin|Work are busy |
| 01:03.09 | Dustin|Work | wat wat |
| 01:05.20 | DeadZergling | oh, wanting to let a monster teleport, having an issue with part of how I want it to work |
| 01:05.52 | DeadZergling | now I know I'll just do autocast, enumerate area to see if anyone is nearby before he will use it |
| 01:06.27 | DeadZergling | and that part is fine, but I want it to be random, but not somewhere the caster can't actually see, and I want him to try to do it until he actually does it |
| 01:09.03 | Bounty | Teleports are difficult |
| 01:09.27 | Bounty | also, apparently HP laptops have a feature that you can reset to factory default lol |
| 01:09.29 | Bounty | which is awesome |
| 01:11.15 | DeadZergling | oh, I'll just use a cheap trigger hybrid, lol |
| 01:11.21 | DeadZergling | that will do exactly what I want, good job me |
| 01:12.01 | Dustin|Work | Yeah I'd use triggers for that |
| 01:12.08 | Dustin|Work | While loop ftw |
| 01:12.49 | DeadZergling | indeed, dummy effect to call a function, lol |
| 01:13.28 | Bounty | lol |
| 01:13.41 | Bounty | Dummy effects and dummy behaviors ftw |
| 01:14.28 | DeadZergling | dummy behavior applying a non dummy behavior is how I achieved a believable building rising out of the ground, lol |
| 01:16.51 | DeadZergling | think i'll be doing the same to my necromancer pet summons, just add a mediumfire fx to the ground, disable them doing anything for a couple seconds |
| 01:16.58 | DeadZergling | make it look like undead escaping hell, lol |
| 01:17.46 | Bounty | When I learned that sending animation messages to actors and playing sounds in triggers was a HUGE issue... thats when I learned about dummy behaviors and effects lol |
| 01:17.55 | Bounty | that problem destroyed one of my earlier games |
| 01:37.36 | Bounty | I think I'm going to do the Kickstarter with a game that is a combination between Gnolls VS Trolls, Trifaction and Overlord. |
| 01:37.50 | Bounty | Can really pull it off with these assets . |
| 01:50.13 | *** join/#sc2mapster RipperRoo (~RipperRoo@p5790319F.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) |
| 02:02.50 | Dustin|Work | Ughhh this headache |
| 02:03.10 | DeadZergling | shouldn't drink so much the night before work Dustin|Work |
| 02:03.27 | Dustin|Work | I wish that was the problem :P |
| 02:04.21 | DeadZergling | ah sorry, hope you don't start puking later |
| 02:05.20 | Bounty | Probably a bordem headache |
| 02:18.55 | Dustin|Work | I think it's a 'I work too much' headache |
| 02:37.40 | DeadZergling | understandable, not working for so long, then suddenly working |
| 02:40.01 | DeadZergling | I'm having to do more at work lately myself, is like the customers suddenly asked so about that delivery date.... then everyone is in a panic, lol |
| 03:38.26 | DeadZergling | booo, hissss.... thought I had a solution to a problem I was having |
| 03:38.34 | DeadZergling | it is only a partial solution, it can still fail |
| 03:39.58 | Dustin|Work | for what problem |
| 03:40.45 | DeadZergling | well, I wanted to give my items the possibility to have up to 3 behaviors attached to them, for special effects, familiars, whatever |
| 03:41.08 | Dustin|Work | What problem you hitting now? |
| 03:41.12 | Dustin|Work | With what approach |
| 03:41.30 | DeadZergling | trying to come up with a good solution for adding/removing behaviors, that handles stackable behaviors as well as single stack only ones |
| 03:42.00 | DeadZergling | so each item has stats, the default blank for the 3 behaviors is BlkBlkBlk |
| 03:42.10 | DeadZergling | in a string |
| 03:42.46 | DeadZergling | Now I could just remove all the old behaviors every time and reapply the new ones every time |
| 03:43.15 | DeadZergling | but that is wonky, would result in familiars suddenly dying then reappearing for seemingly no reason, that sort of shit, lol |
| 03:44.29 | DeadZergling | nearly had something where it would crap all the old and all the new into one big string a piece, but it fails if say 2 items have the same behavior, and you remove one later in the string |
| 03:44.50 | Dustin|Work | Interesting... |
| 03:44.59 | DeadZergling | that is the same behavior, and stack max is 1 |
| 03:46.03 | DeadZergling | could track for unique behaviors, have another ugly array keeping track of new versus old |
| 03:46.10 | DeadZergling | but bleh, I hate the idea of doing it that way, lol |
| 03:47.30 | Dustin|Work | I would honestly just use unittags as indexs and setup a struct of each unit that contains it's current buffs, then do your math on stacking and whatever and apply once the struct has been set and finalize based on the buff and buffcount |
| 03:48.12 | DeadZergling | yea, what I'm trying to avoid, lol |
| 03:48.52 | DeadZergling | oh well, I been thinking about it over a few days, and I have no reason to implement this without some behaviors ready |
| 03:49.05 | DeadZergling | will just go home and get my wizard with teleport working properly instead for tonight |
| 03:50.26 | DeadZergling | thx for the input Dustin, need to work on the actually getting home now |
| 03:50.34 | DeadZergling | staying late because my issue is bothering me isn't cool, lol |

| 07:59.20 | Goa_ | duckies |
| 07:59.52 | Goa_ | so satisfying to make algorithms that find nice puzzles for my logic game |
| 08:00.49 | Goa_ | you should pick up Unity, possibilities are endless ! |
| 08:01.34 | duckies | you mean make algorythms that make puzzles? as in it does stuff that player must later deconstruct? |
| 08:01.59 | Goa_ | yes:D |
| 08:02.03 | Goa_ | actually |
| 08:02.08 | Goa_ | it find puzzles |
| 08:02.25 | Goa_ | it generates x amount random puzzles and finds the nice ones from it |
| 08:02.34 | Goa_ | fucking awesome |
| 08:02.51 | duckies | why can't it already generate awesome puzzles :o |
| 08:02.57 | duckies | but yeah, that must be nice |
| 08:03.20 | Goa_ | cause randoms will always be more interesting that anything I can ever program |
| 08:03.25 | Goa_ | also much faster |
| 08:03.26 | duckies | :D |
| 08:03.39 | duckies | I've been wanting to make something like that for a platform bound level I'm going to make eventually, someday.. |
| 08:03.42 | Goa_ | I can run 10k randoms to test under few minutes:D |
| 08:03.51 | Goa_ | even at very complex levels |
| 08:04.13 | duckies | mm, awesomeness :3 |
| 08:04.34 | Goa_ | maybe I will make my escape game to have such algos one day.D |
| 08:05.01 | duckies | I thought you were talking about your escape game T_T |
| 08:05.49 | Goa_ | thats not a puzzle game |
| 08:05.58 | duckies | it can have a puzle elements |
| 08:06.18 | Goa_ | but it doesnt.D |
| 08:06.20 | duckies | for example, a very hard platformer that requires precision is essentially a puzzle |
| 08:06.41 | duckies | since you need to figure where you need to be at at very specific time frames |
| 08:07.26 | Goa_ | thinking of it, I would have to remake the whole game from scratch to have such algos in it |
| 08:07.42 | Goa_ | so I will just stay at human designed levels for it |
| 08:07.59 | Goa_ | randoms would never make boss fights anyway:D |
| 08:08.05 | duckies | (been wanting to play with this ever since I saw that one procedurally generated platformer that could be adjusted from an easy chillax experience to a nerve-wrecking borderline puzzle precision insanity simulator) |
| 08:08.33 | Goa_ | you know there is 1 procedurally generated platformer. |
| 08:08.47 | Goa_ | though its not very nice |
| 08:09.20 | duckies | yeah, but the idea of making proceduraly generated reactionary puzzles is interesting |
| 08:09.26 | Goa_ | they should have done what I am doing, making nice algos to find nice platforms from the randoms they genereated |
| 08:09.46 | duckies | good thing you're doing it then! |
| 08:10.09 | duckies | bad thing you won't have a pc beta version for meh to test D: |
| 08:10.41 | duckies | remember the roooooooooooooooooooooooots goa! |
| 08:10.42 | Goa_ | from 500 randoms my algo found 8 nice puzzles for my first levels of my game |
| 08:10.51 | Goa_ | this makes life so fucking easy |
| 08:11.15 | Goa_ | I could make flash versions of my games:D |
| 08:11.31 | Goa_ | (I will probably do, but only like a year after mobile release) |
| 08:11.40 | duckies | v_v |
| 08:12.28 | duckies | anyway goa, how can I switch to unity now when we are getting wc3 assets. I just want to stay and see where it goes, So weak-willed |
| 08:12.48 | Goa_ | Unity 5.0 coming |
| 08:12.49 | duckies | (altho I already know where it'll go, I just don't want to accept it) |
| 08:12.54 | Goa_ | be happy about that |
| 08:13.09 | duckies | is happy about unity 5.0 coming |
| 08:13.19 | Goa_ | blizz promised that wc3 pack about 2 years ago... |
| 08:13.20 | duckies | what's coll in 5.0? |
| 08:13.38 | Goa_ | lots new options for modifying sounds |
| 08:13.46 | Goa_ | better lighting and over all better:D |
| 08:14.16 | DeadZergling | options for modifying sounds... don't they have ya know, editors for that? |
| 08:14.23 | duckies | did twodie switch to unity? |
| 08:15.06 | Goa_ | they have very basic tools for it unity, there are some good assets that can do almost anything, but nothing special in the built in stuff, but 5.0 will have awesome built in stuffs.. |
| 08:15.31 | Goa_ | TwoDie still only plays with his ****. :) |
| 08:16.08 | duckies | I see, typical twodie |
| 08:23.12 | Goa_ | dam, like this I will finish my puzzle game in days:D |
| 08:26.31 | duckies | finishing fast is a good skill to have =3 |
| 08:27.05 | DeadZergling | That's what she said |
| 08:27.15 | DeadZergling | it made Twodie feel better |
| 08:28.45 | duckies | :3 |
| 08:31.56 | Goa_ | :D |
| 08:48.59 | DeadZergling | question, if I add a predefined negative area to a region(triggerwise), is that region lost, will always be part of that region? |
| 08:54.16 | DeadZergling | probably, sigh, looks like I get to stare at numbers and come up with shit another way, lol |
| 08:54.44 | Goa_ | test it |
| 08:55.13 | DeadZergling | doesn't seem like I need to, is no function to separate a region up again |
| 08:55.21 | duckies | yeah, I remember when I worked with regions triggerwise they were wonky |
| 08:55.27 | duckies | so better test it |
| 08:56.30 | duckies | altho, I recently worked with them again, and I can tell that adding trigger-made negative circles to existing regions behaves as expected |
| 08:57.28 | DeadZergling | that's good, just making my life more complicated than it needs to be, again, lol |
| 08:59.27 | DeadZergling | yea all right, was thinking about something in a much more complicated way than it needed to be, boo on me |
| 08:59.42 | DeadZergling | a simple negative circle and a larger positive circle will do the job just fine |
| 09:07.49 | Goa_ | dammit |
| 09:07.49 | DeadZergling | at least I tested how a negative donut works a long time ago, because I thought I might do something like this a long time ago. What do you work on nowadays anyways, duckies? |
| 09:08.05 | Goa_ | all the 40 puzzles that my algo found is nice |
| 09:08.14 | Goa_ | so hard to choose only few from it |
| 09:23.53 | duckies | Bringing one of maps I loved in BW into sc2 DZ |
| 09:24.57 | duckies | ooh I thought algorithm also picked them for you.. I see now, It generates stuff and you pick what you like into preset |
| 09:25.23 | DeadZergling | what game is that, duckies? |
| 09:25.47 | duckies | it was called dungeonRPG |
| 09:25.59 | duckies | an extremely misleading name for what it was :D |
| 09:26.36 | DeadZergling | never touched that one, what was it? |
| 09:27.17 | duckies | since I recently discovered sc1 map archive with pretty much all the maps there ever were I played a bunch of it and I just want to play a better, updated version of that, in sc2 |
| 09:27.38 | duckies | it's awesome dz :D |
| 09:28.10 | duckies | it's an exploration/rpg/base defense |
| 09:29.28 | duckies | as in, you explore world in search for things, killing stuff makes you better, every now and then when there are too many enemies on the map they'll gather to attack allied dorteress in the middle of the map |
| 09:29.36 | duckies | you win by finding and killing a dragon |
| 09:30.00 | duckies | but dragon is OP so you need to prepare by finding some other things first |
| 09:30.40 | duckies | also, 6 heroes, permadeath, if you die you can only pick other hero, all exp is lost but upgrades remain |
| 09:31.01 | duckies | if you've cycled through all 6 heroes it's gg |
| 09:32.13 | duckies | also, it was on twilight tileset which made it 150% better |
| 09:32.14 | DeadZergling | I see, sounds like it might be a pita to make it as epic as you remember |
| 09:34.01 | duckies | well, I'm second month in, working steadily everyday, so it's coming together nicely |
| 09:34.33 | DeadZergling | oh I see, you have a chance of being done someday |
| 09:34.39 | DeadZergling | proves it isn't really an RPG right there! |
| 09:35.24 | duckies | hehe ;D |
| 09:35.59 | duckies | had to sacrifice regular playtime for it, going to sleep early, waking up 2h before work, mapmake in the moring with fresh mind and enthusiasm bursts! |
| 09:36.18 | duckies | getting something small done every day is amazing~ |
| 09:37.53 | DeadZergling | well the cool part is, the more faithful you are to the original, the easier it is, lol |
| 09:38.47 | DeadZergling | knowing exactly what you are making/replicating, it makes a lot of things easier |
| 09:39.38 | duckies | yeah, having an emotional/mood/experience pointers is good. |
| 09:40.54 | duckies | Tho still need to reinvent all the enemies/heroes/abilities/world behavior/extra stuff so that it's as awesome as I remember and not as sucky as it is in reality :< |
| 09:41.36 | DeadZergling | standards were a lot lower back then |
| 09:42.05 | DeadZergling | kerrigan had snare, cloak, and storm, and had a melee weapon |
| 09:42.12 | DeadZergling | this was just accepted as the way it had to be |
| 09:42.48 | duckies | the technology wasn't there yet, it did the best with what it could, so to be faithful to it I need to make the best with what I have now in this time. |
| 09:44.47 | duckies | tho it's hilarious to have an enemy which if you hit it - will cloak and follow your hero cloaked with you having to either run away or take invisible harass to the face |
| 09:46.03 | DeadZergling | one of my favorite renditions was the countless 'Crazy Kerrigans' that Special forces had |
| 09:46.37 | duckies | kerrigan death sound - so good |
| 09:46.59 | DeadZergling | not as good as regular kerrigan, lol |
| 09:47.05 | duckies | :P |
| 09:53.44 | DeadZergling | well come on, she practically orgasmed every death |
| 09:55.01 | duckies | the tentaclation vas inevitable |
| 09:55.50 | DeadZergling | nova is just all boring, nova signing out, blah blah blah |
| 09:56.02 | DeadZergling | Kerrigan though, oh yea, it hurts so gooooooddd! |
| 09:57.11 | duckies | sc1 sounds = quality, sc2 sounds = quantity :/ |
| 09:57.44 | DeadZergling | indeed, the best sc2 ones are the copy pastes from sc1, lol |
| 09:58.03 | DeadZergling | the new zergling noises can suck tassadar |
| 09:58.21 | DeadZergling | I think I actually imported some sc1 zergling noises I disliked them so much |

| 10:57.10 | Zolden | wtf |
| 10:57.45 | Zolden | are you "native american"? |
| 10:58.36 | DeadZergling | Uh, why would you assume that from drinking alcohol? |
| 10:58.47 | Zolden | genome statistics |
| 10:59.34 | Zolden | there are 2 systems: one disassembles C2H5OH to some shitty molecules, and the other one disassembles those shitty molecules to elements |
| 10:59.35 | DeadZergling | you do realize how incredibly rare actually being native american is right? And how incredibly not rare a guy drinking is? |
| 10:59.49 | Zolden | if second system is too slow, one has bad hangovers |
| 11:00.41 | DeadZergling | Or I simply tend to not drink enough liquids, and alcohol can give me headaches far easier because of it |
| 11:00.52 | Zolden | maybe |
| 11:01.04 | Zolden | each genome has behaviorla cheats |
| 11:01.16 | DeadZergling | anyways, I'm about as far from native american as you can get, I am mostly German |
| 11:01.48 | Zolden | any asian ancestors? |
| 11:02.01 | Zolden | asians too have that second system frequently weak |
| 11:02.16 | DeadZergling | that mostly caucasian looking Japanese tribe possibly, but otherwise absolutely not, lol |
| 11:02.28 | Zolden | anyway, novadays anyone can make realy cheap genetical test and find out all roots |
| 11:03.06 | DeadZergling | but why do that when Zolden can make conjecture with very little to no information :) |
| 11:03.42 | Zolden | i'm watching sherlock holmes series |
| 11:04.17 | Zolden | i can tell how small your dick based on how frequently you use "twat" word |
| 11:04.27 | DeadZergling | easier for his conjecture to be right when it is written that way, lol |
| 11:05.13 | Zolden | wow, i've been using the "hypothesis" word, but no will use "conjecture", it sounds more precise |
| 11:07.32 | DeadZergling | would figure how often the word twat is used, and other female body part words, would be more a descriptor for how often said dick gets wet, than how big or small it is |

| 15:15.30 | Goa_ | eating 800mb memory instead of 200-300mb that it usually eats |
| 15:16.50 | Zolden | 10k runs? |
| 15:18.02 | Goa_ | I restart my game after each time it calculated the puzzle with a new seed. |
| 15:18.25 | Goa_ | after 4k restart it starts to slowdown |
| 15:18.37 | Goa_ | and after 10k it takes about half a second |
| 15:19.27 | Goa_ | I store the good seeds in script that arent destroyed |
| 15:19.37 | Goa_ | but still that doesnt explains the leak |
| 15:20.11 | Zolden | why should you restart it? and why not store in a file? |
| 15:20.55 | Goa_ | cause I am lazy:D |
| 15:22.22 | Zolden | if you ever have a need to perform heavy calculations and use the result in the future to avoid those calculations during actual game, one of the ways is to store those results in a file, and use that file as a loadable resource, so this method may be useful sometimes, and worth learning |
| 15:23.02 | Goa_ | I know |
| 15:24.16 | Goa_ | its just easier to store it in a script and when it finds 30 good seeds, I can easily load them by my already existing ui for levels... |
| 15:24.53 | Goa_ | I never thought it would take 10k+ runs for some parameters... |
| 15:25.13 | Goa_ | I will set and 8k max limit |
| 15:31.36 | Zolden | actually, unity is still buggy, and will always be as a non-stop evolving program |

| 17:37.40 | ArcanePariah | Beautiful. One piece of beauty in a winter paradise. |
| 17:38.03 | ArcanePariah | For I can only assume the background is the pure snow outside with some trees. |
| 17:40.12 | ArcanePariah | For me, morning is bright and sunny. Typical winter day here, hot in the sun, cold in the shade, and dry as hell. You can feel the lack of humidity. |
| 17:41.19 | Zolden | yea, there was a thread on reddit about chinese artificial rain causing won't work in california, because there's no moisture in the air to be turned into waterdrops |
| 17:42.07 | Zolden | yes, it's pure snow outside here, and usually it melts in late march/early april |
| 17:43.53 | ArcanePariah | Yes. California has a unique climate as a product of 2 things, that are incredibly rare. We live in the shadow of the mountain range, which means this area is a natural desert. However, we are next to the ocean. So the two counterbalance each others, leading to the super moderate weather here. |
| 17:44.27 | ArcanePariah | Only 3 other places have it. Chile, nothern Tunisia, and Italy. |
| 17:45.16 | ArcanePariah | Chile, because next to ocean, but in shadow of Andes mountains. Italy is one giant mountain range next to the Mediterranean, and northern Tunisia is in shadow of Atlas mountains and next to the Med. |
| 17:46.14 | ArcanePariah | Plus, in my own analysis, opinion, California is kind of the end of the world. One of the last places in the temperate latitudes to be explored and settled. |
| 17:46.28 | ArcanePariah | It is as far from Europe and Asia as you can get. |
| 17:46.37 | ArcanePariah | While still being on land. |
| 17:47.20 | ArcanePariah | Which kind of explains our diversity. We got people from everywhere here. Russians too. |
| 17:48.22 | Zolden | yea, if not the indian wave that came from west, the eastern wave reached california realy late |
| 17:48.28 | ArcanePariah | I think I've met people from most of the world living here. Belgina, Syrian, Japanaese, Brazilian, etc. |
| 17:48.35 | ArcanePariah | Belgian* |
| 17:48.59 | Zolden | yea, it's far from everywhere, so all have equal chances to get there |
| 17:49.01 | Zolden | like moon |
| 17:49.09 | Zolden | does El Nino affects your climate locally? |
| 17:49.12 | ArcanePariah | We have a Little Tokyo, Chinatown, Little Saigon, Little Arabia. |
| 17:49.13 | ArcanePariah | Oh yeah |
| 17:49.24 | ArcanePariah | Leads to huge changes, we get tons more rain in El Nino |
| 17:49.40 | Zolden | probably it wasn't there for too long |
| 17:50.13 | ArcanePariah | Our long term climate is somewhat crazy because they've realized their is multiple weather patterns from the pacific ocean that affect us. Some are on decade cycles, some on century long cycles. |
| 17:50.24 | ArcanePariah | there are* |
| 17:50.48 | ArcanePariah | When it comes to climate and oceanography, we are still in the dark ages. |
| 17:50.54 | Zolden | lol, reddit taught me that it's an annoying misspelling, and i kinda felt it :) |
| 17:51.45 | ArcanePariah | Yeah, English is a whacky language, even for us natives. Arises from the fact that English is the dumbed down/simplified german |
| 17:51.51 | Zolden | yea, ocean is a complex system, that has lots of cycles |
| 17:52.21 | ArcanePariah | We make everything context sensitive, nothing explicit like a lot of other languages. |
| 17:52.59 | Zolden | also, short words, which makes english a paradize for puns makers |
| 17:53.13 | ArcanePariah | Yes, ocean is so poorly understood. Partly because it is so vast, we don't have enough sensors/satellites/buoys to get enough information/data. |

| 20:18.21 | DeadZergling | hey Bounty , feeling absorbent today? |
| 20:18.39 | Bounty | Slightly. |
| 20:19.40 | DeadZergling | <=== can't control himself from referencing paper towels somedays |
| 20:19.49 | DeadZergling | so I made a really annoying monster last night |
| 20:20.26 | DeadZergling | he is clever enough to teleport out of the way of projectiles, I'm sure everyone will love him |
| 20:21.53 | Bounty | lol |
| 20:22.33 | DeadZergling | I could just make him dodge everything, but I only allow him to do it once every 7 seconds |
| 20:22.43 | DeadZergling | not going for ghosts n goblins devils annoying |
| 20:22.51 | Zolden | DeadZergling trigger based? |
| 20:22.57 | Zolden | don't answer |
| 20:23.01 | DeadZergling | hybrid of data and triggers, zolden |
| 20:23.24 | DeadZergling | could have done it pure data, but it would have taken longer, and would have met my requirements less |
| 20:23.45 | Zolden | there's no hybrid notion, there's only 2 choices: pure data or rimjob |
| 20:24.10 | DeadZergling | sheesh Zolden, did Putin give you STDs lately or what |
| 20:24.12 | DeadZergling | so moody lately |
| 20:24.25 | Zolden | what's STDs? |
| 20:24.44 | DeadZergling | diseases you get from butt secks |
| 20:25.47 | Zolden | does it make people use triggers instead of data? |
| 20:25.48 | DeadZergling | or, just because you will like this definition more: Sexually Triggered Diseases |
| 20:26.14 | Zolden | Shitty Triggers < Data |
| 20:26.19 | DeadZergling | don't lie Zolden, you use triggers in Mines and Magic too |
| 20:26.41 | Zolden | not for abils |
| 20:27.17 | Zolden | also almost none periodic, only init ones or per wave ones, like calculate income |
| 20:38.10 | *** join/#sc2mapster Kazimir (~Nytemare3@c-67-174-247-125.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) |
| 20:39.34 | DeadZergling | now Zolden, I won't disagree that Data can be very good, very powerful, etc etc. But this absolute hatred of triggers really doesn't make any sense |
| 20:43.39 | Kazimir | Oh shit, did I just log in to the culmination of years of tension? |
| 20:43.45 | Kazimir | *popcorn* |
| 20:44.26 | DeadZergling | oh, zolden has been culminating for quite awhile |
| 20:45.13 | DeadZergling | you'd think Triggers killed his father, raped his sisters and made him watch the way he talks about them. |

| 20:46.12 | Kazimir | To be fair, we all have one or two issues with this system that we hate far more than appropriate. |
| 20:51.13 | DeadZergling | oh, like the fact I can't know where the mouse cursor is exactly when a key is pressed, but no problem with a mouse click, such a load of horse shit that one |
| 20:51.38 | DeadZergling | that is probably true Kazimir, but branching out to be the entirety of triggers seems a bit much |
| 20:51.53 | Kazimir | I hate the entirety of the weapon system. |
| 20:51.55 | Kazimir | All of it. |
| 20:52.04 | DeadZergling | Granted, there are people who hate Data with a passion, and terraining with a passion |
| 20:52.12 | DeadZergling | I hate terraining, but I'm not passionate about it? lol |
| 20:55.28 | DeadZergling | out of curiosity Kazimir, what do you hate about the weapon system so much? |
| 20:56.27 | Kazimir | Do you want an itemized list or an overview of how much it fucking sucks to work with? |
| 20:56.37 | DeadZergling | overview, lol |
| 20:56.50 | Kazimir | Ok. Let's use the goddamn hydralisk as an example. |
| 20:57.00 | DeadZergling | the melee/range weapon deal? |
| 20:57.04 | Kazimir | nah |
| 20:57.13 | Kazimir | just the lack of a "simple" weapon option. |
| 20:57.34 | Kazimir | actually, I'll use a melee to get it across better. |
| 20:57.58 | Kazimir | Unit uses weapon which has effect that does damage. That's the absolute simplest it gets, right? |
| 20:59.05 | Kazimir | Every step past that point is a poorly documented clusterfuck. |
| 20:59.18 | Kazimir | What if I want a ranged weapon? DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE BITCH. |
| 20:59.43 | Kazimir | Time to learn about effects that spawn projectiles which have effects on impact. |
| 21:00.24 | Kazimir | On that note, there are a lot of similar problems throughout Data. |
| 21:00.40 | Kazimir | so...maybe I'm just pissed at how shitty the documentation for this editor is? |
| 21:01.02 | Kazimir | When I mouse over a field in Data, it will tell me about what it does....sometimes. |
| 21:01.08 | DeadZergling | I agree, a ranged weapon that needs a projectile in order to do its damage, IE a stalker attack versus a marine |
| 21:01.32 | DeadZergling | rarely, Kazimir , rarely, rarely it will tell you what it does, and even more rarely it will make sense |
| 21:01.44 | Kazimir | exactly. |
| 21:02.08 | Kazimir | (Basic) UI: Status Bar Forced On + |
| 21:02.11 | Kazimir | Then a bunch of flags. |
| 21:02.14 | Kazimir | WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT |
| 21:03.01 | Kazimir | I can infer from the name that it's forcing status bars, but the flags don't seem to match up with that concept well. |
| 21:03.27 | Kazimir | (I don't actually care at all what that does) |
| 21:03.33 | DeadZergling | so you don't just take issue with the weapons systems, you take issue with the entirety of the data editor |
| 21:04.03 | Kazimir | Or the entirety of the documentation |
| 21:04.06 | Kazimir | take your pick. |
| 21:04.21 | DeadZergling | indeed, just the data editor, hehe |
| 21:04.27 | Kazimir | I get about 30 minutes of work done per day before ragequitting the editor. |
| 21:04.27 | DeadZergling | down the rabbit hole is the norm |
| 21:04.48 | Kazimir | I've been working on adding the first tier of units to my map for SIX MONTHS. |
| 21:05.28 | Kazimir | Hell, I started this map before the expansion. |
| 21:05.37 | DeadZergling | yikes, and I was feeling bad about only finishing 1 monster or 2 a night |
| 21:06.10 | Kazimir | I've got...19 done for one of the races. |
| 21:06.16 | Kazimir | and like 5 for the enemy race. |
| 21:06.42 | Kazimir | Anxiety attacks and an antagonistic development environment do not get along. |
| 21:06.44 | Kazimir | at all. |
| 21:07.45 | DeadZergling | I just get developer's block on a lot of occasions |
| 21:08.07 | DeadZergling | I decide I'm not happy with something, not sure what to do about it, so I do anything but work on it for awhile and ignore my problems |
| 21:08.12 | Kazimir | No problems there. I work in design and implementation (basically a glorified producer) |
| 21:09.08 | Kazimir | I can plan and fix stuff all day, but dealing with the minutia of struggling against poorly designed tools is something I can't do. |
| 21:15.00 | DeadZergling | suppose, after you get something working, sometimes I'm amazingly lazy and just start copy pasting xml all over |
| 21:16.50 | Kazimir | ? |
| 21:19.20 | DeadZergling | well is different views in the data editor, one being XML view |
| 21:19.51 | DeadZergling | if you have something that does almost exactly what you want already, can just copy that, or dupe it in data, whichever, just change one little thing, and good to go |
| 21:23.26 | Kazimir | *efficiencygasm* |
| 21:23.37 | Kazimir | This is almost as good as when I learned about component mode. |
