I'm... not sure, actually. I could have sworn that it did, but I also don't really know what I'm doing.

That's generally not true. It'll only copy value objects, like integers and characters and floats. It won't make a copy of objects that are any more complicated than that, usually.


It broke my connect 4 AI so many times. Not that it would have worked in the first place.

You might also need that fix on some 32-bit distros, not just 64-bit ones.

Well, this is just silly.

export LD_PRELOAD="$(find /{,usr/}lib{32,} -name libz.so.1 | head -n 1)"

This seems likely

Can someone take a look at AnnoucementWindow.exe? Every time it comes up as a Trojan but I know it's probably a false positive. Thanks for the update though!

From where? There's no file called "AnnouncementWindow.exe" in the DF distribution.

Just thought that I'd drop in and drop a link to what Ispil was talking about. This is the SERF you are looking for.

I didn't think that people were still looking for a way of using VR and deadening their body's input to their brain so they can have the simulated ones instead.

I guess that would fix all my issues with VR as it currently exists, but what a leap from here to there.

I'd write  a format like
<width> <height>
<bools serialized to integers>

However, I suspect that Gamemaker won't work for that(and so much more)... But if you can't serialize arrays of bools like that, then I'd recommend looking at the netppm format as a starting point, as it is human readable and most languages with decent IO are able to read it without too much trouble.

That being said, I'd recommend moving away from gamemaker if at all possible. That's my preference though, and I honestly have no idea how much it has changed since I dabbled in it six or so years ago.

Eh, I'd prefer to spread secular values from my fortress. Gotta keep my dwarves from worshipping too much, after all, it doesn't fulfill their worship needs at all. :I

Have any of you messed around with Inform 7?

 It's interesting because I've found that the action override/behavior handling methods resemble those in the Common Lisp Object system for overriding post-handlers for specific objects.

It looks almost like it might have advanced object orientation until you realize that it's basically englishified prolog and everything is handled through DFS.

Does anyone know precisely which subjects dwarves can write about?

I wouldn't have expected them to have optical or fluid engineering knowledge. Maybe the fluid engineers can make DF's water run faster. /s
