I was watching a video of the new SimCity early this afternoon and was inspired by it to play SimCity 2000. Then suddenly it was midnight...

---

I saw on the old twitter. I was tempted to dig up my copy of that as well. Comes with two benefits; already have it, and no "Server unavailable"

How did your city turn out?

I worked on a lot of minor threads at work I wanted to wrap up. Plus my boss returned so that was good.

It would need to have snacks.. or a candy coated prize in it. If it could be tired to some way of getting a hint on it's location..

The trick would be how long it would stay at an ID number...

EDIT: Sorry.. almost forgot.. Mood avatar not relevant..

Nice! Use Psychic! erm.. unless Luna is a Dark type..

I've been in possession of two really nice bass guitars. I've yet to sit down and learn to full play them. That's one thing I would like to revisit.

I really don't win much. I've got various prizes over the years.. The biggest thing I own (other than a house) is probably..


One of the few screen used things I own in my collection. According to the documentation it is the one RDA hit with a rubber P90.. so it may not be that exact one...

Welp I am glad you are better computer wise. Don't worry about that shit happens

To explain what is going on may take longer than I have now, but I'll do my best.

The only true issue is well git. If you were on git we would have been able to better communicate when things happened and we could back out or branch of changes. The file issue, you alone syndrome, etc would not have happened.

I think that if you are able to return that's the only major change.

The other issue is well communication. I'm part to blame with my IRL events that made me vanish for so long. We as a group need to discuss everything. My role is to make sure everyone is working toward the primary goal, project the acmlm-yness, make sure everyone has what they need, and to break ties and the occasional 'executive decisions' that I hate so much.. but the group together makes the decisions. If they don't communicate we end up running into a big mess like we have now.

As for this 60% of your code. We're not just going to lob it off if we don't have to. We need to press on and in order to do so we need to start optimizing and bug fixing. Your perm system will be modded but not cut out (unless we have no choice). The arrays really are the only thing we're really going to need to rip out and redo. This is something you even showed some agreement on. We're not going to remove all your code, so don't worry about that. We're going to optimize it that's all. (yes that may mean scope removal but if you explain it in full detail maybe another dev will decide for it and it'll stay)

Core is more important than the RPG. So you did the right thing. Don't fret on that.

One thing Bouche reminded me of when I we were talking the other day that code on group projects doesn't always get used/rewritten. I've had some of my stuff just outright removed before.. yeah it stings but it's important to know it's meant to be done for the project's well being.

If you look at the git repository right now I am splitting off a copy of 2.5.1+kafuka for possibly a mid term update to Kafuka. Than we are trying to learn about the changes in your code base. Going to optimize it and start working on it again.

That said the only thing that you'll need to do when you are able to come back is join the dev room and we'll get you setup for git. If you are gone a while you'll be able to join us in where we are.

Indeed. We are well aware of this. I wouldn't say we're lazy as more unorganized. I've been off and on active so part of it is my fault, and I'm sorry about that. We also changed how we dev a little bit recently as well.

2.6 is also going to require a database conversion so we'll need to take the live board down for a bit to do this, so we're going to make sure it's ready.

also this is should now fixed. Seriously sorry about that.

Congrats. Well thanks to the DST stuff on the US side it's time to have a tired Monday

I spent the day outside. Walking.. doing a little yard work. It was almost 70˚F

While forum stats are mostly 'balanced' (hell if I know... still ABII's item set minus Stark's items) but it's not perfect..



(I'm disqualified, I have hacks™) and even I have no frog coins. lol

Did you get anything interesting on your trip this weekend?

Yay! No red this time! Go @Trelior!

Our lotto numbers are 11, 9 and 8..

Rainy mess right now. 48˚F. Actually yesterwayyesterday was 62˚F and sunny ass all heck. I miss it..

Does real currency conversion value really play into the bitcoin system or is it more a relationship to the hashed coins should really be kept distant to the more traditional economic systems?

If you had your choice of automobiles, what would you choose?

Also do you have any movies to recommend?

Have you seen any good movies lately, if so do you recommend any? (Yup.. I think I am going to ask this to almost everyone.)

If it weren't for the "latest post" button, this thread would be difficult to enter.

It made me realize AB2.5.1 doesn't have the "Next older thread", "Next newer thread" buttons...

...not that anyone used those.

---

Well.. it's in the list todo.. lol

I used to use.. umm 100ppp and 500tpp back in I1... now it's 30 and 100 respectively. *shrug* I should up it..

As the development of 2.6 has progressed it has grown to such a massive update that I figure I would take little time and pluck out a few of the more minor updates and apply them to our current branch. Today I've back ported one new feature, one new [tag], 2 classic AB ranksets, and all the new themes not yet on Kafuka.

The smallest of the updates was the addition of a [ irc] tag. Basically all it is is the code tag without syntax highlighting. It's purpose is to use it for IRC quotes and anything you used to us the [ code] tag for that doesn't need colored.

Ex:

return -1;

vs.

17:10:31 MrRean has joined (Derp@c-71-200-127-119.hsd1.md.comcast.net) 17:11:05 < Danika> yeah, stores like GameStop and FYE have blank cases of the DVD/Blu-ray/game/whatever 17:12:00 <@Gywall> I find it hilarious when people shoplift blank cases. 17:12:34 < Danika> it says "DISPLAY BOX - Bring to cashier to exchange for product" 17:12:52 < Danika> they do that with stuff like nicotine gum and baby formula here too, in some stores 17:15:10 < Danika> couple days ago I was at ShopRite, I only had two items and the woman in front of me was buying a perfume (which they keep in the back room along with nicotine gum, Robitussin, baby formula, etc.) and it took like 6 minutes or so 17:15:19 Nicole has left IRC (Quit: hm)

Mind you in the future further differences may be applied to it

The other big update is I've ported @Scrydan's wonderful implementation of the ranks page that ABII has been missing since.. well 2005. Right now it acts mostly like it did in AB1.92.. ie: only shows people on that rankset, but it won't filter for inactive.

We have added two of the classic ranksets from AB1 to mix it up a little. The first one is a port of Dots by @Xkeeper. If you've never seen this one before it's basically a bar made of dots that indicates your rank. I've altered it slightly to have the numerical info as hover over to make it more compact. It provides our first alternate rank system..

The second ranks are the formerly lost Kirby rankset made by Yoshidude. I in fact didn't know they existed until I was reading the archive.

I've also added 4 new themes:
Pinkielicious by @Ijah
Kafuka Gold by @Dirbaio
Left Mouse Button Purple variant and Binary Green by @Lunaria

and well that's about it this round.
