<0> Well, auto-latency could be nice for that
<1> How do I do a plugin system?
<2> that would create variable lag though
<3> hmpf.... i got a tuple of RGB and want to add an A value and p*** it to glColor4f (which takes a 4 entities long iteratable)... how could i get this in one line?
<3> col = (0, 1, 0)
<3> glColor4f(list(col).append(0.5)) =
<3> ?
<3> without the = :o
<2> col = col + (a,)
<0> freakazoid: variable delay, almost no lag (except transitional)
<2> I think col += (a,) will work too
<1> timonator: append() doesnt return self
<2> append is also not usable with tuples
<1> freakazoid: it has got to
<0> timonator: list(col).append(..) returns None, not the appended list
<1> freakazoid: "list(col)"
<3> hmm
<3> how can i do it then?
<2> glColor4f(col + (0.5,))
<2> USE ADDITION
<3> is it that easy?
<2> yes
<2> this is Python.
<3> wowzers!
<1> freakazoid: so, have you ever heard of an instant type editor? :)
<2> Peaker: I mean the time after I push the button and the time it takes effect on my screen. That can't change
<0> freakazoid: Why not?
<2> kbrooks: editobj
<1> when i say "instant type editor", i am talking about WYSIWOD
<0> freakazoid: It changes with prediction, no?
<2> Peaker: Humans adjust to lag only over time
<2> peaker: no it doesn't
<2> people just seem to teleport occasionally
<0> freakazoid: And yourself, you teleport too?
<2> no
<0> How come?
<1> freakazoid: teleport?
<0> What you do is immediate?
<3> Peaker: i know WYSIWYG and WYSIWIDW, but what is WYSIWOD?
<2> yes
<2> the simulation on your own screen is real time and authoritative
<1> timonator: talking to the wrong person
<2> what you don't know is everyone else's exact location, hence the latency triangles
<0> timonator: donno
<3> i meant kbrooks :)
<1> timonator: OD = on disk, the others you can fill in
<3> ok
<0> freakazoid: Ah. How do you determine who dies if both think they killed each other?
<2> Peaker: Well, armagetron has a server to arbitrate
<2> but there is a "death lag"
<2> they must continue to crash into the wall for a certain amount of time before they actually die
<0> a server? that doubles the latency automatically :-(
<1> timonator: see #poverty :P
<2> no, the server doesnt' route packets
<0> It just determines disputes?
<2> I am not sure to what extent the server even participates beyond introductions
<2> Peaker: I don't know actually
<2> Peaker: but it's available
<2> Peaker: the way armagetron handles death is by making the walls rubbery
<2> and everybody shares the same rubberiness
<0> Hmm. What if you lag too much? Beyond the lag triangle?
<2> the lag triangle is displayed based on your lag
<2> it's not fixed
<2> there is a maximum lag that's allowed and if you lag too much you disappear
<2> or something
<0> So if someone stops sending packets there's a triangle growing around him?
<2> I haven't played in a while
<2> why don't you play?
<0> ubuntu package name?
<2> armagetron
<2> ubuntu is taking over the world!
<0> :)
<0> It ****s, but a bit less than Windows :)
<0> Sometimes it ****s even more than Windows.. Very dependable on the situation
<1> Peaker: heard of *P*overty?
<0> Nope what is it?
<1> it's a text editor written in Python using PyGTK
<1> Peaker: the channel is "#%s" % project_name.lower() :)
<2> oops I need to reboot
<2> Apparently I upgraded the nvidia driver
<1> sc-zzz: stop it.
<2> that's what I get for running dapper
<1> stonecrest: its ****ing annoying.
<1> stonecrest: use /away.
<0> freakazoid: Funny messages for single player
<2> oh yeah
<0> freakazoid: Microsoft programs making segfaults.. They might sue :)
<2> heh
<0> freakazoid: How to connect to you?
<2> I have to reboot or something before I can run
<0> You can turn prediction on/off
<2> I wonder what it does if you turn it off?
<1> freakazoid: ping
<2> kbrooks: hi
<1> Peaker: ping.
<2> kbrooks: Sorry I am running at ridiculously low resolution
<0> pong
<2> kbrooks: I tried to start armagetron and it changed my resolution and then crashed
<2> and now my screen is stuck at this resolution
<2> I think it changed it to 640x480 or something
<2> I'm running a full upgrade and then I'm gonna reboot
<2> the notifier appears to ahve died at some point
<2> so I'm a bit behind the current state of dapper
<2> thank goodness Canonical seems to have an infinite amount of bandwidth
<2> or whoever runs the US server
<1> freakazoid: infinite?
<1> no such thing as infinite bandwith. :)
<4> is there a way to check what dir the script is currently running is located on?
<0> heh I won my first game of armagetron
<2> infinite = greater than my download bandwidth
<0> in the server
<2> are you using auto AI?
<2> they start out stupid
<2> and then get gradually smarter until you lose and then they get stupider again
<2> in their stupidest mode they're trivial to kill
<2> hrrm it just asked me what braille driver I have
<2> I didn't even know I had a braille driver
<2> I must be blind or something not to have noticed that
<2> you people aren't laughing
<4> is there a way to check what dir the script is currently running is located on?, not where *I* am locating, not os.getcwd()
<2> or you're laughing so hard you can't type
<2> sanmarcos: os.path.dirname(sys.argv[0])
<2> I think
<3> my galaxy creation stuff is.... lacking... this planet shares 10% of its m*** with its sun and its moon rolls over its surface repeatedly phasing through the sun...
<4> freakazoid, the full path
<2> sanmarcos: that doesn't give you the full path?
<4> freakazoid, nope
<2> oh, then do os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(sys.argv[0]))
<2> ***uming you have not changed the working directory since then that will give you the full path
<2> I thought there was some sort of built-in way to do that
<4> freakazoid, that works, seems hackish but does it
<2> but since you are asking me and not the documentation, you will get the answer off the top of my head instead of my looking at the documntation
<2> sanmarcos: it's the way that C and C++ programs do it
<2> and shell scripts
<2> so it's at most as hackish as all those programs and scripts
<2> what I don't know is if it gets stored somewhere in sys at startup time
<2> so I would suggest looking through the sys module documentation
<4> freakazoid, currently I have os.path.join(os.pathdirname(os.path.abspath(sys.argv[0]), "images") heh
<2> ok rebooting to get the nvidia stuff synced
<2> heh
<2> you could always store the result of os.path.dirname... in a variable
<2> brb
<5> Is there any way I can use the 'dd' linux command in python besides doing os.system()?
<0> punkrockguy318: subprocess, or use your own read/write on files
<0> punkrockguy318: using shutil or such to copy the file would be more portable
<5> Peaker: I'm extracting the boot sector from a usb media.. can I do that with shutil?
<2> Peaker: pick a server to meet me on
<2> Peaker: one without a lot of other users
<2> use dd to extract the boot sector
<2> or file and read
<2> file('/dev/sdb').read(512)
