11th blog! Yay!
–Life in the mind of a trapped genius–Not much new, really. Starting my maths stats coursework, should be alright, thought there's one hell of a lot of writing to do. About 35 pages in the two week period, not nice. Not nice at all.–Gee Em–PYATS, or Phazon Yoshi's Advanced Textual System is in V3 now, supporting tags, without using surfaces or some such crap, so I'll stick the finished version in my next blog, likely.I doubt I'll bother submitting it, it's not like there's a shortage of textbox examples, though I have to say, mine's pretty snazzy!Work on tTEP (Troidengine) is nill, nowt, nothing, I have bugs, bugs, bugs, to fix in the new shooting script, all of them are in the format 'Shooting in X direction while Y is Z hor-px off, and Avert-px off'. Boring!-OGame-Doing allright, now, Just got level one espionage tech, though I don't actually have any probes…Getting plenty of power, metal, crystal, etc. but I'm worried about attack overnight. My glaxy is fairly tame though, 3 vacation moders, 2 'haven't logged in for a while'ers and some regular players. I'll show them, I'll show them all!Is it ok to farm an account that no-one logs into? Not considered unchivalrous or anything?Meh, who gives a damn.-BQO-Join the damn forums, please?You know, just to be nice.I'll give you a similar warm fuzzy feeling to winning the winter banner compo, yet without being assasinated by Flashback. Double win, eh?
Pages are working now.
Err, don't… attack… I haven't, honest!Game freezes, but I want that,And I've always planned to change the bit at the end so the shake keeps shaking, I'll do it soon.(By attaacking, I chose the two people who hadn't logged in for 3 weeks. I feel unchivlrous.
AGH!!!!!!!!!
Damnations! Pages broke…And changing it so [bold] and {shake} broke the parser!Crist, I hate you, PYATS!Be recursive with pages. Draw with modulos. And don't draw text under pages(I made that mistake, made it lag with all the rainbows and the other things)
But yes,page pause without freezing was a hassle. Lucky you and the freezing pagesModulos?
Pages are done exactly the same as normal text ATM, but in an array, with the y_ shifted up a bit, and not drawn at all if it's smaller that y_o-(something or other)I like your rainbows, I might try to do them!I'll be chnaging the tegs so you can <c_green> <$FFFFFF> and <shake><bold></bold></shake>, etc. soon, should give some more control, else I'll run out of keys. unless I use alt ands, like alt+253, '²'. Nah.Bah,just use <bold>boldtext<bold> with b=!b
And modulos is a wonderful thing you should learn ofExecept it is spelt modulus. I just think modulos sounds coolerI had troubles with b=!b, it set it when going through previous lines, too.
