Experimenting with the CODE tags. Enjoy.

Yesterday at 3:51 AM             Varine:                 Oh hey back to work. Fuck man, I forgot how much time this job takes.
Yesterday at 4:01 AM             Accname:             Dont tell me, I work 3 hours a week dude.
Yesterday at 4:01 AM             Accname:             So much time spent there, its horrible.
Yesterday at 4:01 AM             Accname:             man, I love this country...
Yesterday at 6:36 AM             tom_mai78101:         Your 3 hours/week is equivalent to our 12 hours/week.
Yesterday at 1:55 PM             Accname:             didnt know the hours were shorter in china
Yesterday at 2:19 PM             Accname:             FINALLY! I managed to disable the fucking touch pad on my laptop.
Yesterday at 2:20 PM             Accname:             Stupid drivers were buggy and I had to download the latest version.
Yesterday at 2:20 PM             Accname:             Because these idiots fail to deliver a product with working drivers
Yesterday at 3:39 PM             jonas:                 same story here... then one year ago I spilled water on my keyboard
Yesterday at 3:39 PM             jonas:                 it started sending random key signals
Yesterday at 3:39 PM             jonas:                 I installed the drivers for a japanese keyboard
Yesterday at 3:39 PM             jonas:                 no problems since!
Yesterday at 3:39 PM             jonas:                 (I'm using an external keyboard/mouse now)
Yesterday at 4:50 PM             Varine:             I worked 60 some hours this week.
Yesterday at 4:56 PM             Varine:             So there.
Yesterday at 5:54 PM             Accname:             Well, sucks to be you I guess.
Yesterday at 5:58 PM             jonas:                 phew. do you enjoy the work?
Yesterday at 9:06 PM             Accname:             Varyne does not enjoy anything. But I certainly enjoy to hear that.
Yesterday at 10:53 PM            jonas:                 it's funny if you're not being serious
Yesterday at 11:03 PM            Accname:             I am ALWAYS serious, dont you know?
Today at 1:41 AM                 Varine:             its better than some jobs I've had.
Today at 1:47 AM                 Varine:             its annoying as fuck when we get vegans and shit though
Today at 1:48 AM                 Varine:             a lot of people that want gluten free and clearly don't know what gluten is.
Today at 1:54 AM                 Varine:             and some of those picky ones that ask for medium doneness and expect well. people are just really dumb

New line at the box's extents would be nice. I don't even see why I'm included in this.

You're one of the main protagonists here.

 

[Varine]

I was talking about my private work life, nothing to do with tech support.

Whoops, fixing that title.

 

[Varine]

You have time to get these code tags running but no FireCat tags?

 

[tom_mai78101]

I'm not the admin.

 

[Varine]

You also didn't change the title.

 

[tom_mai78101]

You also didn't change the title.

Sorry, was carried away by the shoutbox.

 

[Varine]

Yeah, that fucking thing is not designed for that kind of conversation... I am still really confused.

 

[tom_mai78101]

Yeah, that fucking thing is not designed for that kind of conversation... I am still really confused.

Yep, and the full conversation has been backlogged.

 

[Varine]

No dude, he's still fucking going on. You have to wait until it's like just a straight megabyte of him talking about whatever the fuck he's doing. That was like half the problem, I would look away for a second and look back it's a whole new fucking wall of text.

giggles uncontrollably

I don't know why. It's so fun to watch.

 

[Varine]

I'm still here too. Haven't even touched my beer I opened forty five minutes since I was trying to keep up.

 

[tom_mai78101]

Too long, so back to text form. Enjoy!

Nestharus:       uhm... guys
Nestharus:       I solved attack indexing ;o
Nestharus:       so far nobody has cared and it's kinda depressing :(
tom_mai78101:    Don't worry, I'm still busy with life.
tom_mai78101:    To be honest, if people just post updates here in the Shoutbox, I'll always see it no matter what.
tom_mai78101:    It's related to me posting news articles, as I always see the Shoutbox whenever I am posting new ones.
tom_mai78101:    Also, note that activity here are completely opposite from each other. You're active right now, but everyone else isn't. When you're asleep, all the fun and chaos appear from nowhere.
Nestharus:       well, no, it's not that
Nestharus:       I talked about it on THW, nobody cared
Nestharus:       they were like, you're still on wc3? Nobody will use it, we don't care
Nestharus:       talked about it on wc3, they were like, don't care
Nestharus:       D:
Nestharus:       just a year  people were trying to solve it
Nestharus:       and it's not like anyone will use it but me now too >.<
vypur85:         You just need to have a realisation that nothing lasts forever. It's time to move on.
Nestharus:       lol
Nestharus:       there's nothing to move on to atm ^)^
Nestharus:       but Dota 2's editor will be coming out at some point, so that might be fun
tom_mai78101:    Hm.... We should really start considering what other things can we expand on.
Nestharus:       mm
Nestharus:       still tho
Nestharus:       btw, it was orb of lightning that enabled the unit to target air right?
Nestharus:       cuz I'm thinking you can make an item like a bow, and when the unit picks it up, it can start hitting air, plus the bow'll have its own cooldown based on the unit's skill with a bow ^)^
Nestharus:       we can also tie in accuracy and evasion scores
Nestharus:       so if the unit is not very accurate with a bow and its trying to hit something far away, i'tll likelyh miss
Nestharus:       if that something also has a very high evasion score, it's def ganna miss
tom_mai78101:    hiding abilites is a pain.
tom_mai78101:    Nestharus, you've got mail!
tom_mai78101:    Reply to read.
Varine:          We all moved on to standalone projects, which is significantly more time consuming.
Nestharus:       huh? And yea, I suppose ^)^
Accname:         I did not just move on to a standalone project, I moved on to several at once!
Accname:         Yeah, I am THAT badassx
Varine:          Yeah, pretty much the same story for all of us. Mine all kind of revolve around the same core systems though, I just haven't really made them.
Varine:          Should have taken more programming classes when that was my major
Nestharus:       ;o
Nestharus:       I don't even know what to code in general programming atm ^)^
Nestharus:       like, right now I have a compiler project, but that's about it
Nestharus:       Well, actually, there is one thing :eek:
Nestharus:       omg that face made me die
Nestharus:       A spell crafting system that lets you craft spells from various elements in real-time in a game ^)^
Nestharus:       An enemy mage can view your spell as you craft it and attempt to counter it :eek:
Nestharus:       omg, I did it again > . <
Nestharus:       I think that'd be pretty cool though
Nestharus:       the casting time of the spell would be its complexity + the time it takes you to actually make it
Nestharus:       then spells could possibly be influenced by the environmtoo
Nestharus:       like if you are in a volcano, it might be easier for you to cast fire spells because of the stuff around you
Nestharus:       ; D
Nestharus:       players would then use the skills of their characters and their own knowledge to fight and so on
Nestharus:       and they'd do their own research
Nestharus:       I was studying a bit of chemistry and physics to try and figure out a good way to lay this out
tom_mai78101:    You should share your colpiler project with us at General Member's Project.
Nestharus:       I'd like it to be toitally open ended, following a few simple laws
tom_mai78101:    *Compiler
Nestharus:       I've yet to solve it :(
Nestharus:       : (*
tom_mai78101:    Uh...
tom_mai78101:    You lost me.
Nestharus:       ?
Varine:          Yeah, I stopped paying attention a long time .
Nestharus:       lol..
Nestharus:       Ok, imagine casting spells in a game realistically
Nestharus:       like a scientist of magic
Nestharus:       and actually studying magic
Nestharus:       that's the premise
Nestharus:       you'd do your own research, you'd figure out how to cast spells, and you'd actually cast them
Nestharus:       rather than just click a little button
Nestharus:       sound cool?
Varine:          I don't play video games so I can do work to figure out how to play it
Nestharus:       lol
Nestharus:       it's more for a sandbox environment
Nestharus:       there's actually one other problem that I'd like to solve too
Nestharus:       so far, people have stated that it has no solution ^)^
Nestharus:       but that's what they said about doing division one digit at a time and I proved them wrong >: o
tom_mai78101:    Thumacraft in a nutshell.
Nestharus:       the idea is to, given a set of points
Nestharus:       split these points into regions containing a maximal number of points with the maximal number of regions possible
Nestharus:       without any region overlapping
Nestharus:       so if I had 7 points and a group size of 3
Nestharus:       I wouldn't go 2, 2, 2, 1 for as even as possible
Nestharus:       er, not maximal number of regions, maximal full regions*
Nestharus:       I'd go 3, 3, 1
Nestharus:       for 2 maxed out regions
Nestharus:       2,2,2,1 gives 0, 3,3,1 gives 2
Nestharus:       how do I do it?
Nestharus:       without brforce
Varine:          I do not know what the fuck you are talking about.
Nestharus:       If I have 7 points
Nestharus:       spread across an area
Nestharus:       I want to split the area into regions containing these points
Nestharus:       each region should have a max radius r
Nestharus:       and a max number of points m
Nestharus:       and I should split it up into the maximum amount of full regions possible
Nestharus:       without making any region overlap
Nestharus:       a region = a shape enclosing the points
Nestharus:       like a blob
Nestharus:       make sense now Varine? : )
tom_mai78101:    In programming sense, you want to have M max points for each regions R of group size S. Right?
tom_mai78101:    You have 7 points in total in a map, demanding that it needs 3 regions with max group size of 3.
Varine:          Voronoi diagram?
tom_mai78101:    There will be 3 points in Region A, another 3 points in Region B, and 1 point in Region C.
tom_mai78101:    Varine, yes I think.
Accname:         @Nestharus:    Doesnt everybody want to make such a system nowadays?
Accname:         I wanted to make this before it was cool.
Accname:         I actually even had a wc3 map with this.
Accname:         But eventually I realized this was boring as fuck
Accname:         Took too much time and too much attention
Varine:          I made designs for similar games, but I also realized how terrible it would be
tom_mai78101:    You lack passion.
tom_mai78101:    @Accname
Nestharus:       well
Nestharus:       so does anyone know how to do it? :eek:
Nestharus:       er : o
Varine:          Complicated games do not sell
Nestharus:       I wanted to do it for Tower Wars
Varine:          Yes, I just said: Voronoi diagram
Nestharus:       every group of 3 disciple towers you built would summon down an angel from the heavens to protect them ^)^
Nestharus:       the angel would roam the region
Nestharus:       as you sold/built towers, the regions would change to continue to have as many full regions as possible
Nestharus:       and angels would move around
tom_mai78101:    stop!!!
Nestharus:       ?
tom_mai78101:    stop.
Accname:         all that spame
tom_mai78101:    You are skipping too many details.
Accname:         tom cant keep up
tom_mai78101:    uh...okay....
Accname:         yo nestharus, how about you put that in some kind of discussion thread
Nestharus:       I tried asking it, nobody could solve it
Nestharus:       I tried on every wc3 site + stack overflow
tom_mai78101:    Nestharus, you need to solve your idea one step at a time.
tom_mai78101:    Concept in mind: DIVIDE AND CONQUER
Varine:          I think the issue is no one wanted to solve it for you
Accname:         well, but I am better then nobody
Nestharus:       tom, I know..
Varine:          I have my own complicated shit to work with
Nestharus:       the only stpe I can't solve is splitting the regions up..
tom_mai78101:    Varine said to use Voronoi Diagrams. You can look up how it was made using Wikipedia.
Varine:          Did you know that you need like eight classes of nouns in order to effectively map it out objectively?
tom_mai78101:    If you flatten all of the mumbo-jumbo abstract concepts have, you'll see that it's as simple as 1, 2, 3.
Accname:         I am currently designing my own scripting language
Accname:         for a little project of mine
Accname:         its awesome
Varine:          I will be getting there, but that's a couple years away
Varine:          At least
Accname:         Its actually really fun, didnt do something that was as much fun as this for a long time
Accname:         (not including sex in the above sentence)
tom_mai78101:    Perfect scripting language name: Steroids on Rails.
Nestharus:       ohhh
Nestharus:       this is computational geometry
tom_mai78101:    yes
tom_mai78101:    perfect, next step.
Varine:          Draw lines between towers to form triangles. Done.
Nestharus:       er.. actually, I have no idea what to do..
tom_mai78101:    Also, leave out the details with the angels and spells, those aren;t important to your region creating systems.
Nestharus:       tom, I was just stating wht I was going to use it for
tom_mai78101:    Try this: Vectors, 2D Cartesian coordinates.
Nestharus:       everyone always demands to konw what I'm going to use something for before helping me
Nestharus:       lol..
Nestharus:       I don't see how that will help me find the regions though..
tom_mai78101:    I know, but if you go too far in your usages, you;ll easily be demotivated,
Nestharus:       ??
tom_mai78101:    leave out pretty usgaes, ideas, just work on simple implementations.
Nestharus:       I get how to make the triangles using the towers.. but I don't get how that helps me
Nestharus:       tom, I always do
Nestharus:       it's other people that always demand examples
tom_mai78101:    usages, ideas, concepts, magic, spells, angels, units, etc. Leave them out.
Nestharus:       lmao... ur not reading what I'm saying : P
tom_mai78101:    You want to get "the points" across, not examples.
Nestharus:       actually, I start with something I want to do, like the tower, then I break it up into all of the required pieces ^)^
tom_mai78101:    That's divide and conquer
Nestharus:       yup
Nestharus:       that's also top-down perspective
tom_mai78101:    I digress. Have you finished your Voronoi Diagrams?
Nestharus:       anyways, so how does the diagram help me?
Nestharus:       I don't know how that will help me..
tom_mai78101:    It fits your description with making regions of group size threso=holds for each region given in your map.
tom_mai78101:    thresholds
Nestharus:       I have all of the triangles sure.. but then what?
tom_mai78101:    Using a combination of arrays, vectors, and Cartesian coordinates, you'll be able to create Regions, max size, width, height, and a list of regions for you to manipulate.
tom_mai78101:    Isn't there a function that calculates how many units in a given region?
Nestharus:       but the problem is.. it's not always the closet point
Nestharus:       or the frarthest point
Nestharus:       ...
tom_mai78101:    Use a circle instead of a rectangle.
Nestharus:       ur not listening ;D
Varine:          You aren't making sense
Nestharus:       that diagram will either do all closest to form it
tom_mai78101:    Or rather, use the point of origin, calculate the shortest distance from point X to origin using vectors, and volia!
Nestharus:       or all farthest
Nestharus:       the regions forming the points have a combination of the two
Nestharus:       it's not uniform
Nestharus:       that is, if you want to find the maximal full regions possible
tom_mai78101:    Are you including those two points with your group size?
Nestharus:       and actually calculate them all out
Nestharus:       no
Varine:          Okay start over here
Varine:          What is a full region? As opposed to a partial region?
Nestharus:       a full region contains N arbitrary points
tom_mai78101:    CLUE: Vectors. You can calculate which points are closer, larger, or further.
Nestharus:       a partial region contains < N
Nestharus:       tom, I'm not an idiot ;p
Varine:          < N means more than N
tom_mai78101:    Full region is U. Partial region is any region of P in U. U is a superset of P.
Varine:          Nevermind
Nestharus:       I read it less than N
Nestharus:       and no tom
Nestharus:       U would be the entire plane
Nestharus:       a region would be a subset of the plane containing N arbitrary points
Nestharus:       and then a partial region would contain less than N arbitrary points
Nestharus:       so if N is 3, then all full regions must contain exactly 3 points
Nestharus:       the next point is that none of these regions may overlap
Nestharus:       and you must make as many of these full regions as possible
Varine:          So if I have four towers, instead of being a triangle is would be a quadrilateral?
tom_mai78101:    Arbitrary sized regions?
Nestharus:       and that of course, they have a max distance from the center R to any given point along the edge of the region
Nestharus:       Varine, no
Nestharus:       tom, the regions just have to enclose the points
Nestharus:       they can be any shape
Nestharus:       which is why I said they were a blob
Nestharus:       4 don't have to be a rectangle, u could have 3 bunched together like a traignel
Nestharus:       and 1 far off
Nestharus:       if you had 3/3 in the center
Nestharus:       and 1 far off to the lft and 1 far off to the right
Nestharus:       : )
Varine:          Okay this is fucking ridiculous. You need to draw a diagram of some kind
Nestharus:       ur diagram would fail : P
tom_mai78101:    No, draw it out.
tom_mai78101:    I can't think now.
tom_mai78101:    I'm sweating under the blistering sun.
Varine:          It's not my diagram, it's yours
Varine:          If you can't draw out what you are talking about, then you then you need to rethink your plan
Nestharus:       sec
Nestharus:       http://www.scriblink.com/index.jsp?act=phome&roomid=188&KEY=B5EDA20808CFD6692DCFEB18B90F43C0
Nestharus:       drew it
Nestharus:       the idea is that some points may look more suitable for a region because they are closer
Nestharus:       but if you take those, then other regions fall apart
Nestharus:       even if those other regions have points that are farther away
Nestharus:       so it's not as simple as your diagram :)
Varine:          Fuck man, I have to switch OS's here to use flash... couldn't have just, like, made a jpeg or something normal?
Nestharus:       one mom>.>
Nestharus:       there is no easy way no
Varine:          And I don't have java on here either.
Varine:          Damn chromebook
Varine:          How do you install java on Ubuntu? You can't use the RPM can you?
Nestharus:       it's hell
Nestharus:       gimme a moment
Nestharus:       I'm putting it up on chat
Nestharus:       it's going to take a very long time
Nestharus:       so you'll have to wait awhile
Nestharus:       cuz I have to make the image, then I have to recover my password from a website for storing pictures
Nestharus:       hen I gotta upload it
Nestharus:       vs just giving you a link of a pic I drew online
tom_mai78101:    Just use Imgur
Accname:         why dont you just make a screenshot of that image
Accname:         and upload it to a free image hoster?
tom_mai78101:    Faster, more easier alternative to any other image hosting sites.
Accname:         I would say there is about 100 others which are exactly equal
Nestharus:       [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/lpq3tH1.jpg[/IMG]
tom_mai78101:    What?
Varine A momVarine:          That is a terrible diagram
Accname:         what the f
Nestharus:       I drew it by hand..
Nestharus:       what do u expect?
Varine A momVarine:          Something that makes sense?
tom_mai78101:    I thought it could be more clearer than that.
Nestharus:       that makes sense.. lol
Accname:         is this supposed to be some kind of vertex cover problem
Nestharus:       I have 4 regions filled out
Nestharus:       the entire plane isn't covreed with regions
Nestharus:       there are open spaces
Nestharus:       otherwise u may have blogs that have a larger distance from the center than R
Nestharus:       blobs*
Nestharus:       all I did was take a set of 12 points and split them into as many full regions as possible
Nestharus:       ^)^
tom_mai78101:    I think I get it. Blurry, but I think I got the picture.
Varine:          Use an ellipse with three foci
Nestharus:       but I don't know what 3 points to pick :eek:
Nestharus:       er : o
Nestharus:       or rather, what N points
Nestharus:       as u see with bottom left 2 regions, they have a combination of close and far point
tom_mai78101:    The middle of convex N-gon?
Varine:          Is that the problem?
tom_mai78101:    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_center
Varine:          You don't know how to make it pick the right ones?
Nestharus:       tom, I know how to calculate the center of a triangle
Nestharus:       Varine, correct ^)^
Nestharus:       if I knew how to make it pick the right ones, I could just stop there, lol
Nestharus:       I'd be happy if I could even pick the right ones
tom_mai78101:    oh...............
Nestharus:       I don't even care about the shape, just as long as I get the points
Varine:          Just a run a fucking bubble comparison. Pick three, calculate size, index, move on.
Nestharus:       I can't..
Nestharus:       I can't do a brforce approach
Varine:          Because?
Nestharus:       too much overhead
Varine:          Not if you do it right
Nestharus:       I'm not doing a brforce approach, lol
Nestharus:       the big crux of the problem was not doing a brforce approach..
tom_mai78101:    But rather a more efficiway of picking out those three?
Nestharus:       yes
Nestharus:       this might run over 1200+ points
Nestharus:       and have to create 400+ sets, depending on partials/fulls
Nestharus:       and it will have to do it in the blink of an eye
Nestharus:       in JASS
Nestharus:       if I used bubble sort, I'd kill warcraft 3
Nestharus:       just like I couldn't use A* for detecting if a path existed
Nestharus:       cuz A* kills wc3
Accname:         why are you trying to do anything with wc3?
Nestharus:       ofc, I'd use this same algorithm in future games, it'd go in my library of cool shit : D
Varine:          The only way you are going to calculate the size of a potential region is calculate the size of the potential region
Nestharus:       well, it depends on how you look at the problem
tom_mai78101:    Or you can just limit the total number of points in a map.
tom_mai78101:    Like 10.
Nestharus:       I can't do that, that's cheating, lmao
tom_mai78101:    How many players are going to play your map?
Nestharus:       for the one I'm thinking of, 6, but there are easily 700+ towers
Nestharus:       to 1200
Nestharus:       at a time
Varine:          I am looking at the problem objectively and you are asking for a way to calculate potential regions without calculating potential regions
Nestharus:       precisely ^)^
Nestharus:       do you know how I calculated digit by digit division? I didn't : P
Nestharus:       I did multiplication instead
tom_mai78101:    It's an NP problem.
tom_mai78101:    nevermind.
tom_mai78101:    I'm dumb.
Nestharus:       ?
Varine:          I had a customer like you today
Varine:          Wanted a well done burger, but still a little pink
Nestharus:       lmao
Nestharus:       it's all about how you think about the problem
Nestharus:       it may be possible to determine the points without calculating the potential regions
Nestharus:       there may be another way ^)^
Varine:          You can estimate the regions using the methods we already said, but you aren't going to calculate the region unless you calculate the region
Varine:          Or you can find a less intensive way to path your angel things
tom_mai78101:    A simple "Move to point X, Y" is suffice.
Nestharus:       do you know how I made a trigger in Warcraft 3 that was faster than a native trigger?
Nestharus:       ';.;'
Nestharus:       I created a list of balanced binary trees that were built like b-trees with only 2 children per node, each parnode being an Or()
Nestharus:       only the bottoms of the trees contained the actual functions
Nestharus:       after this, I'd build the trees in the list into a single tree
Varine:          Do you know how I overcame the obstacles in my designs in Warcraft III?
Nestharus:       this would result in a single boolean expression that could then be added to atrigger
Nestharus:       which was ~5% faster than a native trigger
Varine:          I stopped using a twelve year old video game to develop mine.
Nestharus:       furthermore, it allowed you to add triggers to triggers
Nestharus:       lol..
Varine:          Why are you telling me this?
Nestharus:       to show that I'm willing to go to any length to get good performance and behavior : P
Nestharus:       this was all so that I could do TriggerRemoveCondition in a trigger evaluation
Nestharus:       lol..
Varine:          I still fail to see why vornoi diagrams won't work because I see multiple ways, but I've lost interest now. I really do not care about Warcraft.
Nestharus:       ok, so if you used voronoi diagram
Nestharus:       that would splice the area up appropriately
Nestharus:       and then let you calculate, estimate, the regions, containing the proper points
Nestharus:       the problem is that it still doesn't address the issue that you still have to calculate the region : (
Nestharus:       I guess there's no good way to do it, oh well ^)^
Nestharus:       maybe in 2-3 years I'll figure it out
Nestharus:       ty for your time : )
tom_mai78101:    Thank you for using The Helper Forums Customer's Support Chat. We are open 24/7. Have a good day! :)
Varine:          Calculate the region after picking it.
Nestharus:       btw http://www.thehelper.net/threads/how-to-get-beautiful-face.162113/
Nestharus:       spam
tom_mai78101:    Thanks.
Nestharus:       and a bot member
Nestharus:       btw, this really is a beautiful site ; o
Nestharus:       it's too bad it's so dead
tom_mai78101:    Not unless you count how active it is in the Headline News.
Nestharus:       lol
Nestharus:       compared to THW, it's rather dead : p
tom_mai78101:    We make up for what it is.
Nestharus:       oh well, I think imma save the rest of the work I need to do for DDS for tomorrow =o
tom_mai78101:    Night time there?
tom_mai78101:    3:16Pm here.
Nestharus:       12:18 am
Nestharus:       I've gotten it down to 3 events, I think that's good ^)^
Varine:          We'll have a lot of standalone software coming out of here eventually
Varine:          It's 12:20 here
Nestharus:       ON_DAMAGE_BEFORE (global), ON_DAMAGE (local), ON_DAMAGE_AFTER (global)
Nestharus:       Varine, I'm rather interested in compilers ;D
Nestharus:       but Antlr is annoying, so I was making a compiler to compile Antlr..
Nestharus:       to give me more stuff
Nestharus:       lol..
Varine:          Oh
Nestharus:       I want modules that I can import + push/pop
Nestharus:       and I can't have both
Varine:          I have an interest in genetics, but that isn't an easily communicable topic.
Nestharus:       Antlr isn't that hard : o
Nestharus:       u can learn it in like 1 day, pretty easy
tom_mai78101:    If you're practicing medicine, it's a differstory.
Nestharus:       yes... he said genetics in response to Antlr, and I took that as meaning Antlr was crazy or something >.<, or not easily communicable
Nestharus:       it's like if you call somoene and they immediately hang up on you
Nestharus:       you can either take it to mean that they accidentally hung up
Nestharus:       or they made a point to show their dislike
tom_mai78101:    We're pretty direct.
Nestharus:       and if they don't call back, you can certainly assume the latter
tom_mai78101:    We don't assume, we just do.
Nestharus:       the language I wanted to make uhm
tom_mai78101:    Uhm? What language is that?
Nestharus:       trying to find my notes on it :eek:
Nestharus:       we : o
tom_mai78101:    Huh?
Nestharus:       here's one example
Nestharus:       #name = "hi"
Nestharus:       string $name = "$$name" //string hi = "hi", lol...
Nestharus:       that's the interpolation operator
Nestharus:       I had some smart lexing going on too -> "hello there $name[GetPlayerId(GetLocalPlayer())]! Your income is ${team.income + income[GetPlayerId(GetLocalPlayer())]}."
Nestharus:       oh -> "${"$name"}"
Nestharus:       lmao
Nestharus:       { } represents a block of code that can be modified
Nestharus:       well, it represents a scope
Nestharus:       ${ } would be an interpolated scope
Nestharus:       #{ } would be preprocessor
Nestharus:       you could define languages that way too
Nestharus:       I'm trying to find my notes D:
tom_mai78101:    You might want to try GitHub StudPlan. Free if you're a studfor 2 years.
Nestharus:       I deleted the repo..
tom_mai78101:    ... sorry...
Nestharus:       I FOUND THEM
Nestharus:       woo
Nestharus:       that's right..
Nestharus:       set i[vjass o] = vjass 4
Nestharus:       each language had its own scope
Nestharus:       and you could use the languages in expressions
Nestharus:       like vjass o
Nestharus:       vjass function hi takes nothing returns nothing
Nestharus:       endfunctoin
Nestharus:       that's one such example
Nestharus:       cjass void hi() { }
Nestharus:       that's cjass for comparison
itom_mai78101:    You'll have to write up a documentation for the syntax.
Varine:          My cat just rolled off my bed.
Nestharus:       I have it.. lol
Nestharus:       I'm just cnping interesting examples : p
Nestharus:       that's not even the interesting stuff tho
Accname:         Do you think anybody could read all of this?!
Accname:         As I said, just open a thread. Shoutbox aint strong enough for your needs
tom_mai78101:    @Varine, RIP cat.
Varine:          He's fine
Nestharus:       type x extends private integer
tom_mai78101:    Oh.
Varine:          I used to have a screen on one of my windows and he would jump and catch on it with his claws and annoy the shit out of me when he wanted back inside
Varine:          Took it off think he would stop, fucking jumped headlong into it, bounced off, then did it again
tom_mai78101:    Updated Pokémon WalkingYou can now save/load persistdata, along with your custom maps created by the level editor.
Varine:          So I think I got Java installed
Nestharus:       : o
tom_mai78101:    @Varine, Natural instincts doing God's work.
Varine:          On Ubuntu
Nestharus:       nice ^)^
Varine:          Not on Chrome
Nestharus:       there was something really interesting with external and internal scopes..
Nestharus:       like.. you'd call a function and it'd end up importing the code from that function to your scope..
Varine:          Dude you have no idea how tough this cat is
Varine:          I have seen him straight up fight a coyote
tom_mai78101:    @Varine, Cat bro.
tom_mai78101:    @Nestharus, would you like to create a thread for that?
Nestharus:       no, lol, I still can't find all my notes either
tom_mai78101:    If you create a thread, history will now remembers what you have wrote down.
tom_mai78101:    history will *then*...
Varine:          Have you considered a filing cabinet?
tom_mai78101:    RIP Nestharus's Notes.

 

[Accname]

28kb? Yeah, sure.

 

[jonas]

@Nestharus
I think you don't need to go perfect, but an approximation would be fine. Start with one large region and refine until the max size is reached. (E.g., split a region in two about equal parts).
EDIT: Varine is right, voronoi diagrams seems related to what you want

PS: I just now realized your name is not nesthaurus. All the time I read it as nesthaurus.

 

[Accname]

Its funny, I too always read nesthaurus in the past and only yesterday realized it was nestharus. Did he change his name at some point?

 

[Varine]

That got out of hand.

 

[tom_mai78101]

That got out of hand.

If you count from the beginning of the year to now, we haven't had this in a long time.
