hanbot: | i think my zealous small stone hunting crashed the server, ftr. | [02:26] |
chetty: | reset | [03:13] |
chetty: | server reset in 5 | [09:17] |
chetty: | default state of new claims will be unlocked, if you dont lock them the sweeper will get them | [09:18] |
chetty: | done, up | [09:23] |
mod6: | ahh, cool. :] | [09:32] |
mod6: | makes for one less click anyway | [09:32] |
chetty: | yeah thats I think why mp asked for it :) | [09:34] |
chetty: | oh boy my first time a tiny didnt just give me one ....:))) | [09:34] |
diana_coman: | wow, congrats chetty | [09:35] |
diana_coman: | and yeah, the default unlock sounds like one click less, so good | [09:35] |
diana_coman: | uhm, chetty, I got a locked claim... | [10:35] |
diana_coman: | putrid leather | [10:35] |
diana_coman: | first I got an unlocked one and now this one was locked... | [10:35] |
diana_coman: | ah, no, nevermind, sorry | [10:35] |
diana_coman: | apparently I locked by mistake somehow, lol | [10:36] |
chetty: | well the habit on how you lock/unlock will take a bit to change I expect | [10:53] |
diana_coman: | yeah, I think that was it, I was so used to the sequence that I really did it automatically | [10:54] |
diana_coman: | I'm curious whether anyone got an ordinary claim at least at all | [11:05] |
diana_coman: | as it seems to me that the latest adjustment made it so that ordinary are as remarkable as rare, lol | [11:06] |
chetty: | yeah mp was complaining a bit about that too, on the other hand I got a couple smalls and my gathering skill is pretty low | [11:15] |
diana_coman: | well, I have probably still the highest gathering skill and I get mainly tiny claims now with a small one here and there | [11:16] |
diana_coman: | certainly nothing more,lol | [11:16] |
diana_coman: | at all | [11:16] |
chetty: | hmm well I guess the formulas still need some tweaks .. | [11:17] |
diana_coman: | I'm not flying! just running | [11:27] |
diana_coman: | very very quickly :p | [11:27] |
diana_coman: | but then again, I am the least strong of all people I know there, so I guess I should be fast, no? | [11:28] |
chetty: | well ... | [11:28] |
diana_coman: | (and I just had an idea of making a mining robot which might actually work, hmmmm) | [11:28] |
chetty: | you set a lot of cheat flags ... | [11:28] |
diana_coman: | wow, even this | [11:28] |
diana_coman: | pfft | [11:28] |
diana_coman: | it's really just increased speed, nothing more | [11:28] |
chetty: | yeah I know | [11:29] |
chetty: | it just notices when you exceed 'normal' parameters | [11:29] |
diana_coman: | There is something a bit strange/funny with automated movement otherwise | [11:29] |
diana_coman: | I implemented something, but essentially the server doesn't seem to be very reliable in terms of what will happen | [11:29] |
diana_coman: | one moment it moves once as instructed | [11:30] |
diana_coman: | the next moment it just keeps going as if in a loop | [11:30] |
diana_coman: | not really sure how/why is that other than some race conditions or the like | [11:30] |
chetty: | now thats not too surprising, send it messages it doesnt expect, you get unexpected results .. | [11:30] |
diana_coman: | no | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | it's not messages it doesn't expect | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | not at all | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | the client has this "Push" method | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | that supposedly executes the given movement | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | only once | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | and that's really what I used in the end just to see | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | + it really is the type of movement defined on the server | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | this "forward" | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | I checked | [11:31] |
diana_coman: | and it should move basically 3 units | [11:32] |
chetty: | right, well themessage probablly isnt sequenced properly | [11:32] |
diana_coman: | well, sometimes it does... | [11:32] |
diana_coman: | uhm, I really don't see how/why would that be given that it's just the same after all if one presses the key for forward or this key for autopilot | [11:32] |
diana_coman: | hmmm, let me try something | [11:33] |
chetty: | it does some funny stuff to try and account for potentially missed messages and things, will throw out a message if it thinks its too old etc | [11:33] |
diana_coman: | lol, now it stopped only because I died somehow | [11:33] |
diana_coman: | that's more likely to be the trouble then, what you just said | [11:34] |
diana_coman: | hmm | [11:34] |
chetty: | oops | [11:34] |
diana_coman: | well, one can break one's neck from running, certainly :) | [11:35] |
chetty: | there is also a built in assumption that when the clientand server conflict the server wins | [11:35] |
mircea_popescu: | diana_coman btw, let me know when you hit 200 crafting, there's a suprise for you >D | [15:25] |
diana_coman: | he he mircea_popescu I'm very close | [15:26] |
diana_coman: | should I search for cover when that surprise hits? lol | [15:26] |
mircea_popescu: | whether one faces surprises nude or covered is a matter of personal preference :D | [15:26] |
diana_coman: | ha ha, all right, lemme drink my tea first then | [15:29] |
diana_coman: | eulorian tea that is | [15:29] |
diana_coman: | I think I might develop a taste for that spicy moss with wooly mushroom flavour :))) | [15:29] |
mod6: | how are you leveling so fast?! | [15:29] |
mod6: | wern't you just on like 130 yesterday or something!? | [15:30] |
diana_coman: | mod6 it's not that fast, but in any case: on one hand some levels require less work to complete (level up) | [15:31] |
diana_coman: | and moreover, the more complex (read expensive) things you do, the more experience you get essentially | [15:31] |
diana_coman: | so if you want to level fast, throw expensive staff at whatever it is you need to do | [15:31] |
mod6: | ah, but how does one do that with things other than crafting? like building? | [15:33] |
mod6: | just need to build bigger mines, like ordinarys instead of tiny? | [15:33] |
mircea_popescu: | mod6 i did a huge run and was at like 85 feeling all great and sucking my own cock, top of the world, best on server etc. | [15:34] |
mircea_popescu: | then she comes along and she's all like "oh btw, im 135" | [15:34] |
mircea_popescu: | so i click like a maniac and lo! im 160! | [15:34] |
mircea_popescu: | but too late, for meanwhile she's 059865867456 | [15:34] |
mod6: | lol. ok cool. | [15:36] |
mod6: | ima keep clickin' | [15:36] |
mod6: | im like 70-something crafting.. | [15:37] |
mod6: | but still only 26 or something on building | [15:37] |
jurov: | <mircea_popescu> [20150629 19:47] wait till jurov wakes up lol << actually i'm a-ok with the changes cuz i'm now making ~10 shavings out of one bundle | [16:21] |
jurov: | before i got only one | [16:21] |
mircea_popescu: | diana_coman : the surprise is, that the game has a mechanism whereby players can learn skills up to half the highest player's skill. this works through a craftable tome which gives +1, and can only be crafted by people satisfying the skill requierement. it will be called Foxy's Dismal Scribblings on Tinkering, and you get to provide a description. let me know what it is! | [16:22] |
mircea_popescu: | jurov wait til lyou hear i got 2665 shavings in one try | [16:22] |
diana_coman: | wow, coolness :) | [16:22] |
jurov: | ofc you may. but i'll be prolly the first one to get negative count of them | [16:23] |
diana_coman: | I am getting closer to 200, but as usual, eulora is not exactly euclidian space so well, "close" is relative, lol | [16:23] |
mircea_popescu: | jurov ahahaha | [16:23] |
mircea_popescu: | hehe. | [16:23] |
diana_coman: | I'm 198, almost at 199, lol | [16:23] |
diana_coman: | and yaaaaay, 200 tinkering | [16:28] |
diana_coman: | wooo hooo | [16:28] |
diana_coman: | now I can drink my expensive eulorian tea :))) | [16:29] |
mircea_popescu: | wd. | [16:29] |
mircea_popescu: | lol. that's going to get effects later on, obviously. anyway : description ? | [16:29] |
diana_coman: | so, Foxy's Dismal Scribblings on Tinkering, mfff, how long? | [16:29] |
diana_coman: | and what does it look like? | [16:29] |
diana_coman: | is it a book? | [16:29] |
mircea_popescu: | well, more like a book a dinosaur digested but yes | [16:29] |
mircea_popescu: | and how long, you've played this game beforer i take it! | [16:30] |
diana_coman: | a piece of skin, a nail and a tooth? | [16:30] |
diana_coman: | lol | [16:30] |
diana_coman: | ahaha, lol | [16:30] |
mircea_popescu: | an' this goes for the rest of ya : whoever first gets a skill that's a multiple of 200 gets his name put on the book and may supply a description which we'll consider. | [16:30] |
mircea_popescu: | and since i'm feeling generous, also at his option either one of the book or one of the recipe making the book. | [16:31] |
chetty: | a book digested by a dinosaur, well at least that shouldn't be too hard to model, one turd coming up :P | [16:34] |
mircea_popescu: | lol | [16:35] |
diana_coman: | mircea_popescu It's a scribble-scrabble of a dibble dabble. | [16:35] |
diana_coman: | there | [16:35] |
diana_coman: | would that be fine? | [16:35] |
mircea_popescu: | possibly the worst description i've ever heard | [16:35] |
mircea_popescu: | but hey, it's your book. | [16:35] |
diana_coman: | good | [16:35] |
diana_coman: | it's meant to be bad | [16:35] |
diana_coman: | or at least I don't like what dinosaurs digest | [16:36] |
jurov: | how did you resolve the wolly mushroom issue? i still don't see them at merchant | [16:36] |
diana_coman: | I just bought the stock for tea | [16:36] |
diana_coman: | sorry | [16:36] |
jurov: | and when can we expect the scammer to replenish them? | [16:37] |
diana_coman: | alternatively mircea_popescu and if it is NOT something that a dinosaur digested, I might prefer this one: The partially lost art of tinkering, now partially found. | [16:38] |
diana_coman: | more like something that a dinosaur wanted for tea | [16:38] |
chetty: | oo I like that one | [16:38] |
diana_coman: | glad to hear that chetty :) | [16:38] |
mircea_popescu: | jurov basically never. go dig. | [16:38] |
diana_coman: | if it's all right, it can also be dedicated to Lady Voyna | [16:39] |
diana_coman: | or Chettery, as she prefers | [16:39] |
mircea_popescu: | diana_coman im not changing the original, i opt instead to extract my vengeance on you in the form of the consume text. | [16:39] |
mircea_popescu: | cackles | [16:39] |
diana_coman: | ahahaha | [16:39] |
mircea_popescu: | if chet wants anything dedicated to her SHE'D BETTER GET WORKING | [16:39] |
mircea_popescu: | we don't encourage lazyness around here! | [16:39] |
chetty: | hahahah you just wait until you see my new lab | [16:40] |
mircea_popescu: | lol | [16:40] |
mircea_popescu: | besides, there's plenty more surprises to come, so. | [16:41] |
jurov: | mircea_popescu: there are no mining tools for sale either | [16:41] |
diana_coman: | uhm, what's your vengeance mining skill mircea_popescu? :p | [16:41] |
jurov: | and i guess whoever has them, wore them out | [16:41] |
mircea_popescu: | jurov so make some! | [16:41] |
jurov: | they require the damn shrroms | [16:41] |
diana_coman: | jurov, the merchant stopped selling tools | [16:41] |
mircea_popescu: | WORK HARDER | [16:41] |
mircea_popescu: | MORE! | [16:41] |
diana_coman: | but I sell them and it's actually cheaper than from the merchant, since he was a pig and asked for more than 1 copper/quality point, lol | [16:42] |
mircea_popescu: | merchants are pigs generally. it's a videogame tradition. | [16:42] |
mircea_popescu: | o also, since everyone's here : im buying grass at 120\%, any qual over 100. | [16:43] |
diana_coman: | uhm, I might have some, lemme check | [16:43] |
mircea_popescu: | i want like | [16:43] |
mircea_popescu: | i dunno, 500k or so. | [16:43] |
diana_coman: | ahahaha, you may want | [16:43] |
diana_coman: | but you know what? | [16:43] |
mircea_popescu: | hm ? | [16:43] |
diana_coman: | some strange thing happened to the claims system that even I don't get anything other than tiny and veeery occasionally small | [16:44] |
mircea_popescu: | it could be that you suck | [16:44] |
diana_coman: | so 500k grass would take about a year or so, lol | [16:44] |
mircea_popescu: | hehe. im actually reviewing that thing see if anything is actually amiss or we just suck. | [16:44] |
mircea_popescu: | the idea is, cruddy hoes etc aren't much of an implement. | [16:44] |
diana_coman: | no, I use axes | [16:44] |
diana_coman: | pickaxes | [16:45] |
chetty: | ooo small spicy moss :) | [16:45] |
mircea_popescu: | o hey wd. | [16:45] |
diana_coman: | but well, what else is there to use? | [16:45] |
jurov: | i can sell 400 pieces.. far cry from 500k | [16:45] |
mircea_popescu: | yeah, as i said. moar stuff to come. | [16:46] |
diana_coman: | lol jurov, it says you are too busy to get the mushroom | [16:46] |
mircea_popescu: | he's busy getting the ganja | [16:46] |
chetty: | since it looks like a lot of the first level bugs have been slain you can expect regular additions I think | [16:47] |
mircea_popescu: | anyway, re merchant : don't expect him around forever. sooner or later he ends up in npc concentration camp. | [16:48] |
diana_coman: | poor merchant, will write an eulogy for him | [16:48] |
mircea_popescu: | euloralgy | [16:49] |
mircea_popescu: | like, PAIN | [16:49] |
chetty: | make him a gravestone :) | [16:49] |
mircea_popescu: | chetty is electron gonna be the first grave ? not a bad idea | [16:49] |
diana_coman: | yes chetty, good idea | [16:49] |
mircea_popescu: | "Here lies poor Spirover, who needed new shoes." | [16:49] |
mircea_popescu: | or i guess "Ci-git Spiron, qui ne fut rien, pas meme academicien" | [16:50] |
diana_coman: | he he, changing original names now, although not tome descriptions :p | [16:53] |
mircea_popescu: | aha it's confirmed the explore process is actually right. | [16:59] |
mircea_popescu: | we'll just have to make better tools is all. | [16:59] |
diana_coman: | yeah, use a bigger hammer(axe) | [17:01] |
diana_coman: | ha chetty, that was jurov this time! | [17:02] |
diana_coman: | not me, not me | [17:02] |
diana_coman: | :))) | [17:02] |
jurov: | ? | [17:02] |
diana_coman: | flying :p | [17:03] |
diana_coman: | the server admin message | [17:03] |
chetty: | tsk tsk | [17:03] |
jurov: | aha | [17:04] |
mod6: | bzzzzt | [17:31] |
hanbot: | lol diana_coman my positioning tips are too hot for server | [17:31] |
diana_coman: | ahahaha | [17:31] |
diana_coman: | hanbot care to write them here? it's probably anyway better, as the channel is logged | [17:34] |
hanbot: | sure, was just sayin', ignore middle value, hit a /pos at starting point, go a few steps, verify you're closer to target with another /pos. if not, turn around. and don't worry too much about dead accuracy as you start out, correct as you go. | [17:37] |
hanbot: | i verify with /pos maybe every 20 seconds | [17:38] |
diana_coman: | ugh, that's what I was trying to do | [17:38] |
diana_coman: | but either I am not patient enough | [17:38] |
diana_coman: | or I still mess it up somehow | [17:38] |
hanbot: | well you move fast enough i'm sure it's easy to get well off track before you know what's what ;) | [17:38] |
diana_coman: | the middle pos is for vertical position and therefore yeah, it should be ignored as it will anyway be uniquely determined by the other two | [17:39] |
diana_coman: | I slowed down, lol | [17:39] |
diana_coman: | but thanks anyway :) | [17:39] |
hanbot: | np. too bad heina can't train ya | [17:40] |
diana_coman: | he he, I'm quite sure I'll find it easier to figure out how to add a map to the eulora client than to get the hang of it | [17:42] |
chetty: | cheat flag over flow | [17:45] |
diana_coman: | ahahaha chetty, seriously? | [17:46] |
jurov: | <chetty> [20150630 13:18] default state of new claims will be unlocked, << i still get everything locked | [17:53] |
chetty: | hahaha the once again jurov is different than everyone else | [17:58] |
jurov: | no it's my muscle memory, i used to unlock them automatically | [18:11] |
jurov: | did not notice i'm still doing it | [18:11] |
jurov: | looks like eulora economy can easily reach impasse where all wooly mushrooms are spent making something else than mining tools | [18:17] |
jurov: | and thus no new ones can be mined | [18:17] |
mircea_popescu: | can mine with hands neh ? | [18:28] |
jurov: | will i ever find anything with hands? | [18:30] |
mircea_popescu: | i'm sure you will. | [18:30] |
jurov: | certainly not tjhese mushrooms | [18:31] |
mircea_popescu: | grins | [18:32] |
mircea_popescu: | i just cause the shortages, i don't resolve them. | [18:32] |
jurov: | um. some shrooms appeared at merchant somehow | [18:37] |
mircea_popescu: | anyone found dead molusc yet btw ? | [18:53] |
mod6: | servers down? | [23:29] |
