| diana_coman: | hanbot, bot tries to move things to the table to avoid being overweight | [02:31] |
| diana_coman: | however it moves ingredients only | [02:31] |
| diana_coman: | so it will work if you are not ow anymore once the ingredients are in table, BUT it will NOT work if you are ow with bps only or with output only | [02:32] |
| diana_coman: | also: there is an uncovered case namely if you rank simultaneously in 2 (or more) skills | [02:32] |
| diana_coman: | meaning that it will train only the first skill it knows about and therefore you'll potentially miss on the 2nd from there on | [02:32] |
| diana_coman: | also: it moves stuff but only one stack of each (so if you have 2 stacks of flotsam then it won't be able to train, no) | [02:33] |
| diana_coman: | anyways, by your setup I'd say what happens is that you are ow with the output only by the time you need training (so slag or whatever it is) | [02:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | sooo... cs gives me 4 pss per small | [08:34] |
| mircea_popescu: | diana_coman so basically there's an open chance to improve foxybot here - a) make it do all skills not just one ; b) make it move all stacks not just one ; c) make it move product not just ingredients | [08:35] |
| shinohai: | Foxybot hates me, I'm still trying to do a simple popup window to allow # of cft, etc used in exploring but fails. | [08:37] |
| diana_coman: | mircea_popescu, yes; c would even be "make it move product AND bps not just ingredients" - because one can easily be ow with bps only | [08:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | ya | [08:47] |
| diana_coman: | shinohai, do you mean a new window for config? what fails/where are you stuck? | [08:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | shinohai errors or anything ? | [08:47] |
| diana_coman: | and mircea_popescu 4 pss per small is actually GOOD , lol | [08:47] |
| diana_coman: | I even got like 2 | [08:47] |
| diana_coman: | depends on q , obv | [08:47] |
| diana_coman: | I would say the easiest there is probably a really | [08:48] |
| diana_coman: | shinohai, maybe start with that? it's really just a matter of storing the skills to train in a vector/list rather than just in a single var | [08:48] |
| diana_coman: | and then when training happens to go through them and send the training messages for each | [08:48] |
| shinohai: | no errors .... nothing happens. imma keep reading teh code but pointers definitely appreciated since http://i.imgur.com/omK9a9o.jpg | [08:49] |
| diana_coman: | ok, but what did you do so far and what is happening? | [08:49] |
| diana_coman: | did you manage to create a new window or is that where you are stuck? | [08:49] |
| diana_coman: | are you trying to create a window similar to the one where foxybot spits out messages? | [08:50] |
| shinohai: | Yes, in the foxybot .cpp files | [08:51] |
| diana_coman: | oh, you want to make it from code 100\%? | [08:52] |
| shinohai: | well if there is a simpler manner, as is I can start the client with whatever "explore" params I want using a bash script to alter it. | [08:53] |
| shinohai: | but that is kinda Rube Goldberg I admit | [08:53] |
| diana_coman: | I'm confused; what are you trying to do exactly? | [08:54] |
| shinohai: | When I start to explore, instead of immediate foxybot start, i'm trying to make a popup window that allows me to put # of cft I wish to use on that run. (to start) | [08:55] |
| diana_coman: | you do realise that the # of cft is set from the command line itself? | [08:55] |
| diana_coman: | so /bot explore 1000 line 10 1 7<- number of cft | [08:56] |
| diana_coman: | anyway, as pointer for a popup window I would say check out the one that appears when you select an item in inv so the one asking how many items you want from the stack | [08:57] |
| shinohai: | yup, this I have | [08:57] |
| diana_coman: | in terms of where to plug it in: foxybot.cpp selects the activity/command and then passes the rest of the command line to that | [08:59] |
| diana_coman: | so possibly either there if you want generally to set whatever params or otherwise directly in botactivity.cpp if you want specifically for explore | [08:59] |
| diana_coman: | the Init() method of each activity is the one called with the rest of parameters | [09:00] |
| diana_coman: | so: a). foxybot.cpp method ExecuteCmd b). botactivity.cpp method ExploreActivity::DoInit() | [09:01] |
| diana_coman: | does that make sense to you shinohai ? | [09:01] |
| shinohai: | ah si si | [09:01] |
| diana_coman: | if still stuck just ping me with some concrete stuff as to what you're doing/it's (not) doing | [09:03] |
| shinohai: | I'm embarrased to show my workspace at the moment, I have like 20 parts of the code open in vim in various states of copy xD | [09:04] |
| diana_coman: | heh, not a problem at all; feel free to pick my brain on the client/foxybot code though as I'll gladly help if I can | [09:06] |
| diana_coman: | the client code is a nightmare and there is no real doc at all for it | [09:06] |
| diana_coman: | foxybot is on purpose as separate from the rest of the client as it can be (meaning almost on its own) and I tried to write a minimal doc on the blog but I have no idea how clear that is | [09:07] |
| shinohai: | Thanks! You know I am very green when it comes to games and their mechanics. I never really bothered with C++ code before I got involved with trb | [09:07] |
| diana_coman: | what did you program in? | [09:07] |
| shinohai: | python mostly | [09:07] |
| diana_coman: | not bad, but relatively far from c/c++ indeed | [09:08] |
| shinohai: | yup | [09:08] |
| diana_coman: | stares all of a sudden at a double rainbow outside, ha! | [09:09] |
| shinohai: | Anyway I stuck around this place for education and boy am I getting one xD | [09:10] |
| diana_coman: | not that many places around where such a thing is actually available, huh | [09:14] |
| shinohai: | Not in a way that truly challenges one to think/read imo | [09:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | slowly but surely up to 130 pss | [12:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | only need like 2k or so heh. | [12:15] |
