  • >A text adventure creator?
    Well... Sort of... Imagine it like this: You can create rooms, link them, give them background images if fitting (i.e. if you don't have a pure terminal game).
    Then you can add dialogs.
    I think the dialog system is the hardest point. If you want one that is clever, at least. For the simplistic "smc" dialogs (stupid multiple choice, as it is abbreviated by the majority. SMC is what I alone call them. If you do too, make that two). Hopin' you got what I mean ; )
    For the square... Uhh... The chance to pick a random item from a sub-interval within a uniformly distributed interval depends on the division of the cardinality. If you try one element against an interval with an infinite cardinality, you'll have a 0% probability.

    >Have you played Zork?
    I fear I haven't.
    oh, btw... making text only adventures is boring.
    You should make an engine for that - that's much more fun : )
    and yes, btw.
    Picking a random point out of a square.
    Chance to get a certain point is 0, you can only have the chance to get a point within a certain area of the square.
    > My punctuation in that sentence was pretty bad.
    You sure?

    Thanks for posting that twice, btw, made it lots easier to understand. :)
    > What?
    I meant I didn't understand that part. :)

    > I just cant bother logging into IRC all the time
    You know, pretty much 100% of the IRC clients out there allow autoidentifying. ^_^ They even allow you to join #thehelper automatically. Even www.mibbit.com, methinks.
    > You should really get Skype
    Umm, no? ^_^ I find IRC better, and I don't wanna install some new software just so I can talk to you. :(

    > I'm going to make an adventure game like Zork, www.lastcode.net Not that big, but I'm trying to help it grow, Real life is horribly complicated sometimes, my punctation is the shit.
    What? o_O
    > I get a BSOD
    Join the club. :) I get one at least once a week.

    > Got any projects at all?
    Plenty, just got no motivation to start any of them. :D
    (Cba to edit. ^_^)

    It can be mathematically proved (or at least so I've heard several times from different teachers) that the amount of different numbers in range ]a, b[ (where a and b are non-imaginary numbers (belong to (cba to find that neat symbol, but I think it means 'belong to' ^_^) R) and a != b) is infinite. In other words: if no number between a and b exists, a = b (if a and b are non-imaginary).

    So, what that actually proved was 0.999... = 1.

    'The biggest float number that is lower than x' is simply something that doesn't exist. ;p
    What is the highest float number (like 3.141) that is lower than pi?

    It can't be 3.1 since 3.14 is bigger than 3.1. It can't be 3.14 since 3.141 is bigger than 3.14.

    You can always add something to make it be closer to pi.

    Always? You can't add anything to pi to make it closer to pi. Therefore pi is the biggest number smaller than pi.

    pi < pi

    ---

    You call that proof? ^_^
    You didn't know that before? o_O I've known that for like years.

    > I found another proof against it
    Haven't heard of any valid proof against it, though. Mind linking / elaborating? :)
    > but it's making it work between several computers that is the fun part
    I thought that's just a matter of changing the address to connect to (and perhaps making the firewall allow the connection)? o_O

    > do you know a function to shutdown the computer?
    Nope, soz. :(
    Yay, I managed to do a simple Python chat that works perfectly! <3 Requires one to run a server script and one a client script, though. ;s
    I guess I ran into problems when I was trying to both listen the socket in case data is being sent from it and waiting for input from the user.

    Anyway, why ain't you using just your own computer? o_O I can't see a reason for using your bro's comp. x)

    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
