00:08:40 Devastator: that does sound insane.
00:10:29 syv: Also, it's disheartening to look at what was actually changed between commits to the Akina file in the AoTTG 2 github.
00:10:52 syv: Previously, I just tested the different versions, I didn't actually check their code. I'm not a
dev, why would I?
00:11:50 syv: One commit was just changing speed from 10 to 9.5 in two spots because I said the timing was off. No investigation as to *why* the timing was off, nah, just reduce the speed by 5%.
00:12:05 syv: Which if he paid any attention to what I said, he'd realize would only break things MORE.
00:12:21 syv: And *then* there's the issue that there were only two commits to the file, ever.
00:12:36 syv: But the map changed several more times than that, in chaotic ways.
00:12:49 syv: Nobody's changing the code, but in different builds it works differently.
00:13:03 syv: That sounds like someone is fucking with something they shouldn't be fucking with.
00:13:32 syv: And when I check which version of Unity I should download? 2020.5, despite Unity itself recommending you only use a 2019 version.
00:13:45 syv: And the game was coded in 2015, and I think used Unity 2013.
00:14:03 syv: Which I *know* has introduced problems that they've had to fix.
00:14:17 syv: But they've had to fix them before fixing the *underlying game*.
00:17:22 Devastator: Man, I'm amazed this thing can hold together.
00:17:27 Devastator wonders how janky the alleg source was.
00:38:43 syv: Frankly, AoTTG 2 does *not* hold together
00:39:08 syv: And
RC--the mod of the original 2015 browser game which *everyone* uses--is really only mostly stable.
00:39:16 syv: After literally years of people patching it.
00:39:23 syv: And it's just riddled with bugs.
00:39:50 syv: Bugs that have been so meticulously studied and analyzed that they've practically formed competitive scenes around them.
00:40:29 syv: There is literally not a single gameplay mode where the highest level gameplay *doesn't* revolve around the exploitation/avoidance of some bug or another.
00:40:54 Devastator: this is all going to disappear on one random day in 2025, right?
00:41:39 syv: I have said it before, but it's less that the game works properly, it's more that it's made of a ridiculously tall pile of bugs and patches which introduced *other* bugs that the whole assembly is something fun.
00:41:59 syv: I legitimately don't think *any* mechanic works as the original creator intended.
00:42:15 syv: Everything he made, he made by accident in an incompetent attempt to make something better.
00:42:21 syv: And he lucked into making something fun.
00:42:41 syv: I don't see why it'd disappear?
00:43:02 syv: It's a singleplayer game that runs on your Desktop.
00:43:46 Devastator: playerbase will split into a thousand variants, or some Unity version will break everything.
00:44:29 syv: The former is likely. There's already the start of that, really. But it won't be sudden.
00:44:41 syv: Honestly, no. Someone will just update it and fix it.
01:19:22 syv: Both of them should have an identical Akina map. Nobody should have touched any of the code for Akina.
01:19:33 syv: AoTTG 2's Akina is broken. Anarchy's isn't.
01:20:49 syv: The moving blocks in AoTTG are broken.
01:21:02 syv: They all went left at first, and then I complained about this and they switched some.
01:21:16 syv: And "goes left" is apparently just a boolean 1.
01:21:38 syv: How did they set all of these bools to 1?
01:21:54 syv: There's no possible reason you'd *deliberately* do that.
01:22:04 syv: And nobody was even messing with Akina, anyway.
01:22:31 Devastator: it's the magic switch.
01:24:01 syv: Also, I gotta love these variable names.
01:24:12 syv: There's seven crusher blocks which go side to side in the race.
01:24:21 syv: Each is named "moveingbrick"
01:24:47 syv: Each moveingbrick slides between "movingbrickA", and "movingBrickB".
01:26:22 syv: At least A is consistently on the north side.
01:31:32 syv: Checking Anarchy's source, it doesn't have a fully decompiled copy of
RC included.
01:31:45 syv: So presumably something went wrong with how they decompiled the game.
02:47:06 Devastator: we getting that OVA tonight?
02:47:15 Devastator: or you too deep in the programming trance,
syv?
02:47:46 syv: I just finished the... programming shit.
02:48:06 syv: I'm fairly uninterested in watching a movie at work, honestly.

16:09:54 Piecewise: IMPORTANT ANIME BULLSHIT NEWS FOR
SYV
16:10:56 Piecewise: They've apparently heard his prayers and are combining anime girls and guns in an all new way
16:12:41 Piecewise: Look at this girl RIDING this gun
16:13:28 Piecewise: There are four of these girls.
16:14:40 Piecewise: In all the different stereotypes you want
16:15:03 Piecewise: And they all relate to a gun part or accessory.
16:15:46 Piecewise: AND THEY CAN APPARENTLY ALL VOLTRON TOGETHER INTO A GAINT GUN
16:16:26 Piecewise: And they sell the models of those guns. With realistic loading action and mechanisms
16:17:18 Piecewise: ITS GOT AN EXTENDING STOCK
16:17:50 Piecewise: Its got everything a gun weeb could want!
16:18:01 Piecewise: Its so goddamn stupid its kinda neat
16:18:28 Piecewise: And its called "Gun Girl Lady"
17:49:07 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
18:20:40 Devastator: Thanks for the gungirls,
Piecewise.
18:20:45 Devastator: I'm sure
syv will be happy.
18:21:00 Piecewise: I'm sure he'll be angry but thats
syv
18:21:04 Devastator: I would like to remind you however, that anime girls exist for every sizeable ship in the IJN.
18:21:11 Devastator: yes,
syv is picky about his guns.
19:20:10 Devastator: Also, I'm going to stream Allegiance today,
Piecewise.
19:20:24 Devastator: starting in about forty minutes.
19:53:34 Devastator: games are running a bit early, so I'm going to start early too.
19:53:41 Devastator: twitch.tv/kofiman19
20:06:24 ER: what kind of strange game is this,
Devastator?
20:06:46 ER: why don't you ever talk about it
20:15:05 Devastator: yes, never talk about it.
21:00:36 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
21:00:50 syv: Watching stream, kinda, but distracted.
21:05:33 syv: That was a fairly big game
21:05:44 Devastator: I haven't killed anyone in two games.
21:05:45 syv: The transport run was just full of ships
21:05:48 Devastator: transport is the HTT.
21:05:53 Devastator: that's normal, really.
21:06:02 Devastator: fourish nans, fourish ints..
21:06:06 Devastator: that's a normal HTT run.
21:06:16 syv: And they took you all out really fast
21:06:32 Devastator: just me. Looks like I was the first nan, so the one that got targetted.
21:06:37 Devastator: the other three lived longer.
21:10:26 Devastator: thanks for coming by,
syv.
21:10:33 Devastator: but yeah, that's what a normal HTT run looks like.
21:10:46 Devastator: when you don't have the enemy base camped, which also happens sometimes.
21:10:47 syv: Need a distraction right now, anyway
21:33:10 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
21:35:47 syv: "What's their armor class?"
21:35:55 syv: I don't understand what that's referring to.
21:42:01 syv: You backspace a lot of messages
21:43:45 syv: Why's autopilot basically always immediately disengage after engaging?
21:51:05 syv: Wow. Figbees are something.
21:54:27 syv: Ohhh, I just say that figbees and fighters have armor class "Light".
21:54:37 syv: So yeah, type of ship, and I guess type of weapon that's best.
21:55:33 syv: I guess caps are probably heavy, and galvs or dists do lots of damage versus heavy?
21:56:30 syv: Wow, that was terrible luck for jules
21:57:01 syv: Starting his bombing run, and then.... ohp! Heavily armed anti-bomber comes through the aleph right in front of him.
21:57:12 syv: Tho;ugh I guess it was some other kind of capship.
21:57:30 Devastator: yeah, that was a capship.
21:57:42 Devastator: I was in a cover fighter with anti-capship weapons.
21:57:53 Devastator: and yeah, disruptors do heavy anti-cap weapons.
21:58:01 Devastator: low to small ships.
21:58:06 Devastator: very low to miners and cons.
22:00:52 Devastator: PTs are the third special gt faction ship, sort of a hybrid unit like most of the others.
22:00:56 Devastator: they aren't that remarkable.
22:08:10 syv: ...Did you just get killed by a scout while in a fighter?
22:14:20 syv: They fucking proxxed your exit door???
22:14:29 syv: And that nearly killed you!
22:19:00 syv: Why does your team always win when I'm watching?
22:23:05 syv: Why do you shoot back when you gret in a dogfight that you can't win?
22:23:19 syv: Just to deal damage which has to be healed?
22:25:15 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
22:25:27 syv: Why's there an enemy base within spitting distance of your base
22:25:33 MidJag: I'm kinda here. doing a lot of homework right now
22:26:15 Devastator: the magic of joining the stack.
22:26:20 Devastator: and it was exp v exp
22:26:26 Devastator: the enemy base was so close because we were on offense.
22:26:30 syv: He hasn't lost a single match of Alleg while I've been watching.
22:26:30 Devastator: we pushed a con into the enemy secot.r
22:26:34 Devastator: and built it close.
22:26:42 Devastator: well, you got to see a game where I had no kills in 50 minutes.
22:27:12 Devastator: and basically, yeah.
22:27:16 Devastator: you shoot back to deal some damage.
22:27:28 Devastator: having your exit door proxed in those kinda fights is normal.
22:27:57 Devastator: well, it's offense.
22:28:03 Devastator: you shove a con into the enemy sector.
22:28:08 Devastator: and then you have bases next to each other.
22:28:35 syv: Assuming the rocks line up.
22:28:44 Devastator: there's usually some rock, but yeah.
22:28:50 Devastator: not usually with the red door facing the enemy base.
22:37:08 syv: It occurs to me, having HTTs means KB is less important. Not a damage dealing killer.
22:37:26 syv: So you can put all high KB peeps in the escort ships.
22:37:45 syv: Unless... do HTTs have turrets?
22:38:06 syv: I think when you grabbed one, you didn't wait for turrets, but then you had to fly barely anywhere, so waiting would be a little dumb.'
22:40:16 MidJag: It's kinda cool how your both an RTS and an indiviual unit at the same time
22:40:26 MidJag: Like mount and blade on fucking steroids
22:43:53 syv: Starcraft but all your combat units are mini commanders.
22:45:13 MidJag: Also for this anth homework I find it enlessly funny that whenever a proffesor has to show a video they always find either some sketchy site that has the domcunetery or some youtube video that also has the documentary.
22:46:25 MidJag: That's always at about the lowest possible resolution and was uploaded half a decade ago.
22:48:05 MidJag: Just find it funny because like it shows that proffesors pirate just as much as the students
22:49:40 syv: They're more interested in teaching and learning than stupid absurd copyright laws.
22:52:00 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
22:53:31 syv: They do *not* have good anti-capship capacity right now.
22:54:34 MidJag:
syv's watching, I'm half watching as I do some homework
22:57:53 syv: "Capships, the best anti-miner ship"
22:58:06 syv: Seems to be anti-everything, you've ripped through like six enemies
22:59:01 syv: People are gonna be seeing this corvette in their nightmares.
23:01:32 MidJag:
Dev "who needs an army" astator
23:06:32 syv: HEAVY INTERCEPTORS CAN NAN?!
23:06:40 syv: I thought it was scouts only!
23:13:13 syv: And
Dev was complaining about getting no kills before.
23:13:20 Devastator: it kills guys on the other side of an lalpeh.
23:13:29 Devastator: htt bounced off the green door.
23:13:39 Devastator: it blows up on the other side of an aleph.
23:13:45 Devastator: it's for clearing camps.
23:14:07 syv: A real pity you swapped with the scout.
23:14:22 syv: One scout would've been a much smaller loss than that golden corvette.
23:24:23 syv: The color switching always trips me up.
23:32:30 syv: Also, people constantly shortening "Shipyard" (I assume) to "
sy" is fucking with me.
23:41:09 Devastator: should have went IC Tacyard.
23:41:14 Devastator: you D with corvs and kill all miners.
23:41:22 ER: I want to hang out but I'm not exactly interested in watching alleg
23:41:37 Devastator: I'll be wrapping it up fairly soon.
23:41:49 MidJag: You can listen to me complain about homework.
23:43:03 MidJag: I'm not even sure I could if I wanted to :P
23:53:55 ER: spent some time looking at the menus and stuff
23:54:13 ER: open up my inventory and examine my armor
23:54:32 ER: then I try to examine my other stuff but accidentially eat my armor instead
