04:42 <zeroLOGIK> Hey all
04:46 <zeroLOGIK> I'm a relatively new player, and I wanted to know what server would be good for me to practice with people on a similar level as me
04:48 -!- Lucifer_arma [n=satan@70.253.209.66] has joined #armagetron
04:49 <Lucifer_arma> the only thing that bugs me about hibernate is that the network connection is broken
04:49 <Lucifer_arma> GodTodd: ping
04:55 <GodTodd> Lucifer_arma: pong
04:56 <Lucifer_arma> hey, when you're writing a book, and you set a word budget for words written in a day (or whatever), does that include backstory and notes and stuff that doesn't go in the book itself?
04:57 <GodTodd> for me? no...i only count actual words put down that i intend the reader to actually see
04:58 <Lucifer_arma> seems like it might be pretty hard to stick within that budget early on, when you're writing a lot of other crap ;)
04:58 <zeroLOGIK> I'm sorry if this is a noobish question, but I'd like to know what server would be good for a person who is relatively new to Armagetron
04:58 <Lucifer_arma> did you ever manage to find a good plaintext->rtf tool? txt2tags doesn't have an rtf target, apparently
04:58 <Lucifer_arma> zeroLOGIK: just avoid the team servers and you should be fine
04:58 <GodTodd> that's because one of my word goals (i usually have 2 or 3 running daily word goals, weird system actually) is total words i aim for divided by number of days i aim to take
04:59 <Lucifer_arma> clan servers, also
04:59 <zeroLOGIK> Thanks for the info
04:59 <Lucifer_arma> zeroLOGIK: I saw your post on the forums, and I'll just respond here :)
04:59 <GodTodd> no...i'm still looking into all the different word type tools linux has :/
04:59 <Lucifer_arma> get used to getting pwned, it's a learning experience :)
04:59 <Lucifer_arma> just don't let is faze you
04:59 <Lucifer_arma> *it
05:00 <Lucifer_arma> GodTodd: ok. I'm disappointed txt2tags doesn't have an rtf target ;(
05:00 <GodTodd> i'm actually surprised it doesn't
05:00 <GodTodd> speaking of word processing in linux...is there any "better" program than OO.o?
05:01 <GodTodd> obviously better is in quotes because it's a subjective term ;)
05:02 <GodTodd> and if you say DSTE, i'ma smack you with a fresh trout :P
05:02 <Lucifer_arma> heh
05:02 <Lucifer_arma> well, you know
05:02 <Lucifer_arma> seriously, I like KWord a lot
05:02 <Lucifer_arma> abiword is decent, but it's gnome
05:03 <GodTodd> is kword ms compatible?
05:03 <GodTodd> like can open .doc and save as .doc?
05:07 <Lucifer_arma> lyx is nice
05:07 <Lucifer_arma> I don't know if kword can work with .doc files
05:07 <Lucifer_arma> I suppose I could install it and see
05:07 <Lucifer_arma> the reason I use oo.o is exactly that, word .doc files :(
05:07 <Lucifer_arma> otherwise I'd have switched to LyX a long time ago
05:08 <Lucifer_arma> and I'm considering using it now, but I was wanting to just use Kate (because dste is a sucky word processor)
05:08 <zeroLOGIK> Meh, I played with OO.o but it seems overpowered like Word did
05:09 <GodTodd> does kate work well as a word processor?
05:10 <GodTodd> i mean...i use it for dev work and it'd be handy to use it for novels too...
05:11 <GodTodd> i'm trying to minimize the ram i use on a regular basis...since firefox has such a huge footprint :/
05:12 <luke-jr> so don't use crappy firefox
05:12 <Lucifer_arma> kate's decent as a word processor, it just only does text files
05:12 <luke-jr> Kate works as a word processor as long as you don't mind doing your HTML by hand
05:12 <Lucifer_arma> it does everything else you'd expect of a word processor
05:12 <Lucifer_arma> well, assuming you don't expect a word processor to be a miniature desktop publishing tool (MS Word)
05:12 <GodTodd> ummm for me word processing != html
05:12 <Lucifer_arma> if txt2tags had an rtf target, I'd be all over that
05:13 <Lucifer_arma> there's a latex->rtf converter I might try sometime
05:13 <Lucifer_arma> anyway, kword should reduce your memory footprint, and I'm installing it right now to see if they've got MS Word handling yet
05:13 <Lucifer_arma> kword has the advantage of integration with KDE, meaning a lot of it is already in memory when you start it :)
05:13 * GodTodd wonders what browser luke-jr uses...so he can avoid it like the plague
05:13 <Lucifer_arma> very snappy
05:13 <GodTodd> yeah...i was thinking that
05:14 <Lucifer_arma> well, try it
05:15 <GodTodd> i'm getting it now
05:15 <Lucifer_arma> it'll open them, but I don't know how badly it might mangle them
05:15 <GodTodd> yeah
05:15 <GodTodd> i'll have to experiment
05:15 <Lucifer_arma> I'm going to just use it for now, I'm trying to write a book, and wasting time on tech decisions that are irrelevant
05:15 <GodTodd> and i've always got OO.o to fall back on for when i *have* to deal with .docs
05:15 <Lucifer_arma> yeah
05:15 <Lucifer_arma> you could convert the .docs to oo.o format, and I'll be kword opens those just fine
05:15 <GodTodd> like for shitty humanities class
05:16 <Lucifer_arma> well, do you have to email the documents?
05:16 <GodTodd> i have to send my game proposal to her as a .doc attachment
05:16 <Lucifer_arma> if you turn them in with paper, then it doesn't matter what you use :)
05:16 <GodTodd> yep
05:16 <GodTodd> i know
05:16 <Lucifer_arma> ask her to take rtf or pdf
05:16 <GodTodd> but she creams over email
05:16 <Lucifer_arma> I've found that teachers generally take whatever you send, as long as they can open it in word, and word has no problems with rtf
05:16 <GodTodd> she will take nothing but .doc and nothing with an incorrect subject line
05:17 <GodTodd> she's a dick
05:17 <Lucifer_arma> did you point out to her that she's requiring her users to submit to fascist corporate control? ;)
05:17 <Lucifer_arma> s/users/students
05:17 <Lucifer_arma> send her a mangled .doc, and include a pdf attachment "just in case"
05:17 <GodTodd> i didn't bother...she didn't seem like she'd understand the immorality of it all ;)
05:18 <Lucifer_arma> if she objects to that, just tell her you don't use MS Word for idealistic reasons
05:18 <Lucifer_arma> and you think it's unreasonable yadayadayada
05:18 <Lucifer_arma> that's what I'd do, anyway, but I haven't had this problem yet
05:18 <Lucifer_arma> the only class I was required to use a closed source program (well, two) were classes that revolved around the programs
05:18 <GodTodd> nah...i'll probably just use OO.o for her shit
05:19 <Lucifer_arma> autocad and mathematica, which is a bit different than a word processor
05:19 <Lucifer_arma> not a place to dig in, anyway, not yet
05:19 <Lucifer_arma> but man, if an instructor tried to force me to use the word processor of his/her choice, I'd take it all the way up the chain until I either got satisfaction, or kicked out of school
05:19 <GodTodd> i got mathematica for free, myself ;)
05:20 <Lucifer_arma> I'm trying to get maxima under the awareness of as many instructors here as possible
05:20 <Lucifer_arma> they could teach maxima instead of mathematica, and reasonably expect students to be able to pick up mathematica easily
05:20 <GodTodd> very true
05:21 <Lucifer_arma> hell, a lot of kids go out and find Maple is what they need to know, and what they learned with mathematica they have to apply to maple
05:21 <Lucifer_arma> anyway, my ultimate target is to send the book to baen and see if they take it, assuming I can get it written before christmas
05:21 <Lucifer_arma> if not, then I'll drop the whole idea. It's not worth it to spend more than that time on one story :)
05:22 <Lucifer_arma> (meaning if I don't have it finished before christmas, it means I don't have time to write a book ;) )
05:22 <Lucifer_arma> and baen wants rtf with minimal formatting
05:22 <Lucifer_arma> autocad's a different story, though. For the school to switch cad programs, the industry has to switch
05:23 <Lucifer_arma> I'm sure the school would be happy to teach an open source cad program if there were one in significant use
05:23 <GodTodd> probably
05:23 <Lucifer_arma> oh yeah, the other thing you can do is make an rtf file and give it a .doc extension before you send it to her
05:23 <Lucifer_arma> she'll never notice the difference
05:23 <Lucifer_arma> and how much fancy formatting could you do?
05:24 <GodTodd> true
05:24 <Lucifer_arma> you should test that, I've never done it, just heard about people doing it
05:24 <GodTodd> i'll have to
05:24 <GodTodd> that might be worth a try ;)
05:26 <Lucifer_arma> fuck it, I'm using txt2tags
05:26 <Lucifer_arma> I'll give it an rtf target when the time comes if I need it
05:26 <GodTodd> heh
05:26 <Lucifer_arma> it gives me way too much flexibility to mess around with it
05:27 <Lucifer_arma> I'm thinking things like writing in scenes and using a master include file to pull everything together
05:27 <Lucifer_arma> put each subplot in its own directory in separate files for each scene, etc.
05:27 <Lucifer_arma> store the wholet thing in a subversion repository
05:28 <Lucifer_arma> besides, I can probably do a basic xhtml output or html output and have oo.o convert it for me
05:28 <Lucifer_arma> then read the final product and make sure it's ready for submission :)
05:28 <GodTodd> probably
05:29 <Lucifer_arma> write a little script to collect all the comments from the files themselves, because then I can embed notes into the text
05:29 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, definitely worth it to just do it
05:29 * Lucifer_arma is stalling :)
05:30 <GodTodd> stalling never got a bbook written :P
05:30 <GodTodd> book*
05:31 <zeroLOGIK> Would Spacezone be a good server to join?
05:31 <Lucifer_arma> best way to find out is to join it
05:31 <zeroLOGIK> i see
05:40 <tramshed> luci
05:40 <tramshed> you around?
05:40 <tramshed> Lucifer_arma,
05:45 <tramshed> anyone?
06:08 <tramshed> hey wake up
06:08 <tramshed> I need to test my server
06:11 <Lucifer_arma> tramshed: can't help, sorry
06:11 <Lucifer_arma> no 3d acceleration = no arma
06:11 <tramshed> ah
06:11 <tramshed> suckage
06:11 <tramshed> why no 3d?
06:11 <Lucifer_arma> switched to ubuntu, and my vid chip is no longer supported in the newest nvidia drivers
06:12 <Lucifer_arma> so I have to work at it to get it working
06:12 <Lucifer_arma> and don't really feel like it ;)
06:12 <tramshed> hah
06:12 <tramshed> ubuntu ftl!
06:12 <Lucifer_arma> heh, if it's not one thing, it's the other, on this computer
06:12 <tramshed> lol
06:12 <Lucifer_arma> mandriva had no problems taking the nvidia driver, but had serious problems with wireless
06:12 <tramshed> im still a gentoo whore
06:13 <Lucifer_arma> I won't even talk about the problems I had getting gentoo up and running
06:13 <tramshed> [Linux 2.6.22-gentoo-r2 x86_64] [Gentoo Linux (stable)] [2 x AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+ (AuthenticAMD) @ 3.01GHz] [Physical : 2.0GB, 38.2% free] [Total : 464.38GB, 62.60% Free] [nVidia Corporation G80 [GeForce 8800 GTS]] [HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia]
06:13 <Lucifer_arma> but it pretty much had every possible problem this laptop could give it
06:13 <tramshed> shoulda asked me
06:13 <Lucifer_arma> you were in jail
06:13 <tramshed> haha
06:13 <tramshed> oh
06:14 <Lucifer_arma> ubuntu's fine, it's very nice for everything else, and I can get 3d working, I just don't feel like it
06:14 <Lucifer_arma> on the whole, I'd have to say it's still easier than isntalling shrink-wrapped windows and waaaay more functional
06:14 <tramshed> I coulda sshd's in through the mail!
06:14 <Lucifer_arma> oem windows is a different story, it has all the stuff needed already, of course
06:15 <Lucifer_arma> but my next laptop will either be a tabletpc, a macbook (or whatever apple's got at the time), or a pre-loaded linux of some sort now that they're out
06:15 <tramshed> I had a bitch of a time puttin any linux on my laptop
06:15 <Lucifer_arma> (I'll put linux on the macbook, don't worry, it's just a nice piece of hardware)
06:15 <tramshed> it overheats anytime it compiles
06:15 <tramshed> im glad I got a real comptuer now
06:15 <tramshed> shitty
06:16 <tramshed> ignore that
06:16 <tramshed> wrong win
06:16 <Lucifer_arma> heh
06:17 <tramshed> hmm
06:17 <tramshed> does arma support ipv6?
06:18 <tramshed> im getting two World of hates in the server list
06:18 <tramshed> im wondering if its picking up both ips
06:18 <tramshed> my ipv4 and ipv6
06:18 <tramshed> since ive only got one server running
06:18 <tramshed> two different pings to boot
06:21 <Lucifer_arma> sure you've only got one running?
06:21 <tramshed> positive
06:22 <zeroLOGIK> I'm only getting one World of Hate here
06:23 <tramshed> ah
06:23 <tramshed> classic case of arma being weird
06:23 <tramshed> used to be I couldnt see it myself at all
06:23 <tramshed> now I see two
06:23 <tramshed> whats the ping?
06:23 <zeroLOGIK> 82 last refresh
06:24 <tramshed> thats not too bad
06:24 <zeroLOGIK> Is that server new guy friendly?
06:24 <tramshed> it would just be me and you
06:24 <tramshed> and id be testing
06:24 <tramshed> so yep
06:24 <zeroLOGIK> True enough
06:28 <tramshed> back up
06:28 <zeroLOGIK> Got'cha
06:31 <Lucifer_arma> man, what good's an alien race if you can't remember wtf to call them?
06:33 <Lucifer_arma> heh, race name: Cillano
06:33 <Lucifer_arma> member of the race: Cillanoid
06:33 <Lucifer_arma> slur: cylon
06:33 <tramshed> back agaibn
06:47 <zeroLOGIK> I'll prolly frequent your server in the future
06:47 <zeroLOGIK> I gotta sleep later all

11:35 <eddiefantastic> hello
11:35 <eddiefantastic> anyone care to test a new server with me?
11:40 <eddiefantastic> totally new and exiting game mode ;)
11:40 <eddiefantastic> *exciting even
11:40 <spidey> ROFL
11:40 <spidey> Lucifer_arma: check out liquidwar
11:40 <spidey> is has network play, it's a funny weird game
11:41 <eddiefantastic> it's called Testing Rubbish if you fancy it
11:41 <spidey> i dun play tron no more :p
11:47 <eddiefantastic> a mazer like yourself would excel at this new and exciting game
11:48 <spidey> i doubt i can maze aswell anymore
11:48 <spidey> i'll install tron in a sec ;P
11:48 <spidey> emerging iMaze atm
11:50 <eddiefantastic> the server keeps crashing anyway
11:57 -!- spidey [n=spidey@unaffiliated/mcspiddles] has quit ["Konversation terminated!"]
12:02 <tramshed> lol
12:27 <Kyanos> Keeps crashing?
12:27 <Kyanos> I'm hosting a server too since two days ago...
12:27 <Kyanos> It's called Kyanos
12:27 <Kyanos> And it's a multi-mode server like Nano
12:28 <Kyanos> Although I only have Chrush Zone Mode and Trick Or Treat
12:28 <Kyanos> Trick Or Treat is where you drive trough your own walls to trick others (like Nano)
12:28 <Kyanos> And Crush Zone is where the rim is replaced by a circle of death zones that expand, so you end up being crushed xD
12:29 <eddiefantastic> interesting. drive through your own walls?
12:29 <Kyanos> Yes, it's the cycle_rubber_wall_shrink settings or something like that
12:30 <Kyanos> Extremely buggy if you don't know how it works...
12:30 <eddiefantastic> ah, ok
12:30 <Kyanos> it's a combination of configuring rubber, timebased, time, walls_length and wall_shrink
12:31 <Kyanos> not to have mentioned speed
12:31 <Kyanos> "Testing rubbish, nothing to see here"
12:31 <Kyanos> that's yours?
12:31 <eddiefantastic> it's not up is it?
12:31 <eddiefantastic> that is main, yes
12:32 <eddiefantastic> *mine
12:32 <Kyanos> I joined it, it crashed
12:33 <Kyanos> Or you disabled it before I joined. xD
12:33 <eddiefantastic> you want to try now, I'll bring it back up
12:33 <eddiefantastic> ?
12:33 <Kyanos> Yes
12:34 <eddiefantastic> ok, it's back up
12:34 <eddiefantastic> very buggy
12:34 <Kyanos> Two more mode ideas I have for my server: Rim Fight (Long Small Map where you try to outdig each other), Race Map (Race between walls and deathzones and get to a win zone)
12:36 <Kyanos> Your server doesn't work as it's supposed to be. :-(
12:37 <Kyanos> A win zone is green?
12:37 <eddiefantastic> ok, back up properly now
12:37 <eddiefantastic> not win zone, target zone
12:38 <Kyanos> ah
12:38 <Kyanos> coming back
12:45 <Kyanos> Nice server.
12:45 <eddiefantastic> it'sthanks
12:45 <eddiefantastic> needs work
13:00 <Kyanos> Same for my server
13:00 <Kyanos> Want to have lots of modes on it. xD
13:24 <DrJoeTron> :I
13:32 <Kyanos> Crazy Speed Mode ~ Extreme Madness!

• Website was created by nelg
• Design:
» Layout is loosely based on an old design by Durf.
» Icons on the tools page were originally by Royce, new icons added will try to follow some of the design language.
» Various other icon selections include icons from Crystal, crystalsvg, oxygen, and breeze icon themes.
» Other icons: fontawesome

is a site that has tools, maps, and other various items. It orignally only existed as a server control panel, but I slowly began adding stuff such as a homepage and tools.

This is an LLM-free zone. In general, I am unwilling to use (fight with) any form of "GenAI" to write code for me. So, for the forseeable future, everything on this site will continue to be written by a very silly goose (wait that's me honk honk) with some parts written by other humans as well (silly hu-mon) rather than any plausible-series-of-words token-eating machine. Even my libraries are out of date, and suddenly that's a good thing!
(Although the style has changed several times and content has been added and changed, the base of this site has barely been updated since 2015. But it Ain't Broke!)
This site is also occasionally tested with older browsers, but compatibility is not guarenteed. Although, if you have an old obscure browser and something isn't working that previously did, I guess you can tell me (nelg) about it...
