00:46 <z-man> It has an illegal extension. Put it into a .zip file.
00:47 <z-man> or rename it to .not.zip, that works too.

01:24 <StickyNoob> what x members are doing is getting quite embarasing

01:31 <z-man> Nah, those options are WORTHLESS.

03:35 <luke-jr> StickyNoob: pwnt?
03:35 <flex> f12 key to name yourself flex :D
03:36 <luke-jr> flex: you want him to screw up your rating :D
03:36 <StickyNoob> not bad idea
03:36 <flex> yeah luke, so i can pretend i pwn and it was sticky who lowered my rating :p
03:37 <StickyNoob> half the standard linux editors seem to screw up the x tag tho, emacs was the only one i found that worked
03:37 <flex> yeah Sticky, not a bad idea when you cba changing your config file every hourish
03:38 <flex> big question: Microhoo! or Yacrosoft?
03:38 <luke-jr> StickyNoob: define 'standard'
03:38 <flex> luke-jr, common? popular?
03:38 <luke-jr> :þ
03:38 <flex> :*
03:38 <luke-jr> none of the common ones do, pretty sure
03:39 <StickyNoob> luke-jr: vi,vim,nano
03:39 <luke-jr> I can believe nano might
03:39 <luke-jr> not vi
03:39 <StickyNoob> kate
03:39 <StickyNoob> kwrite
03:39 <luke-jr> I can edit binaries with vi
03:39 <luke-jr> kwrite handles unicode fine
03:39 <flex> notepad ftw
03:39 <StickyNoob> kate is notepad on crack
03:40 <StickyNoob> kate is realy something else
03:40 <flex> if notepad had lines and bit more tweaking things for preference it would be decent
03:41 <StickyNoob> thats wordpad
03:41 <flex> wordpad don't have lines
03:42 <StickyNoob> ahh kde now runs on windows, get it and a copy of kate
03:43 <luke-jr> lines?
03:43 <StickyNoob> line numbers
03:43 <luke-jr> StickyNoob: at least in WINE, Konq and Kate don't work
03:43 <luke-jr> Kate has line #s
03:44 <StickyNoob> why would you run kate in wine?
03:46 <luke-jr> ☺
03:46 * luke-jr needs to buy spreadkde.org or something
03:46 <luke-jr> anyone wanna join me? :þ
03:46 <StickyNoob> you a kde fan boy?
03:46 <flex> he's a cocksucker too
03:47 <StickyNoob> i didnt realise he was an alter boy
03:47 <flex> lol
03:47 <StickyNoob> naa seriously kde is really good
03:48 <StickyNoob> kde4 is a bit shakey atm but will probably pan out pretty good
03:49 <flex> omg omg itv3 teleshopping is on sticky
03:49 <luke-jr> Konq4 is great!
03:49 <luke-jr> death to FireFox!
03:49 <ct|kyle> I'll have to try 4
03:49 <StickyNoob> dolphin is terrible
03:50 <luke-jr> ct|kyle: skip 4.0.0 tho
03:50 <ct|kyle> I really don't like ff3
03:50 <luke-jr> 4.0.0 has a nasty bugs
03:50 <luke-jr> 4.0.1 ftw
03:50 <ct|kyle> ok I'll try it sometime
03:50 <luke-jr> should be out within a week
03:50 <StickyNoob> i have no idea why they chose to put dolphin as default
03:50 <luke-jr> I don't know what dolphin is supposed to be
03:50 <luke-jr> the description sounds like konq
03:51 <StickyNoob> i think its to rival all of windows auto preview and brwoser integration stuff
03:51 <luke-jr> ⁇
03:52 <StickyNoob> the main diff to konq is that a pannel will automaticaly show extended information about the file
03:54 <StickyNoob> it however does some anoying things, like dirs in the /media dir that are not mounted wont be shown
03:54 <StickyNoob> which screws all my automount points
03:55 <flex> sticky you want my ss's of the ladle to keep or whatever
03:55 <StickyNoob> naa im fine
03:58 <flex> does constipation lead to bad sight?
04:15 <flex> not that i have constipation..

12:22 <pippijn> luke-jr: I want to make a link to it on my website
12:48 <wrtlprnft> pippijn: the server parses the map at about the same time as the client
12:49 <wrtlprnft> pippijn: but the client doesn't care about the <Settings> tag in maps (otherwise you could change all kinds of stuff like instant chats)
12:49 <pippijn> oh..
12:49 <wrtlprnft> the server will parse the setting and then send it to the clients
12:49 <wrtlprnft> but by the time they get it the client already parsed the map

12:56 <pippijn> wrtlprnft: http://armagetronad.xinutec.org/hiscores.html
12:57 <wrtlprnft> guess i'm supposed to ignore the first one?
12:57 <pippijn> no
12:58 <pippijn> the first one is the sourcecode for the second one's "model" part of MVC
12:58 <pippijn> the model part does contain some logic..
12:58 <pippijn> but one strftime doesn't hurt too much ;-)
13:02 <wrtlprnft> w
13:02 <wrtlprnft> how is the score computed?
13:02 <pippijn> I parse the ladderlog every 10 minutes and update a database with the new information
13:02 <pippijn> then I empty the ladderlog
13:02 <pippijn> it's incremental
13:03 <pippijn> if I lose the database, all scores are 0
13:06 <pippijn> wrtlprnft: so where is that website of luke-jr's?
13:06 <wrtlprnft> ?
13:07 <eddiefantastic> pippijn: how does it compute the score?
13:07 <pippijn> I want to link to his universal ladder thing
13:07 <wrtlprnft> sec
13:07 <pippijn> eddiefantastic: 1+1?
13:07 <pippijn> eddiefantastic: I don't understand your question
13:07 <pippijn> eddiefantastic: scores are added up and stored in a db
13:08 <eddiefantastic> oh, ok. So it's just how many points you have scored?
13:08 <wrtlprnft> http://ratings.armagetronad.net/
13:08 <pippijn> yes
13:08 <pippijn> wrtlprnft: thanks
13:08 * wrtlprnft wonders why luke-jr always talks in the plural
13:08 <pippijn> eddiefantastic: what would be better?
13:09 <pippijn> wrtlprnft: it's quite normal
13:09 <pippijn> wrtlprnft: even if you are the only person on a team, it is a team
13:09 <pippijn> if someone entered the team, you would have to change all "I" to "we"
13:09 <eddiefantastic> pippijn: http://crazy-tronners.com/ladders_new.php ?
13:10 <pippijn> eddiefantastic: ah
13:12 <pippijn> eddiefantastic: parsing ladderlog and scorelog?
13:12 <wrtlprnft> parsing edlog ;)
13:12 <pippijn> edlog?
13:12 <eddiefantastic> wrtlprnft: I'm sure you can view ratings on a server basis also
13:12 <wrtlprnft> on luke-jr's thing?
13:13 <wrtlprnft> yeah, you can
13:13 <eddiefantastic> yeah
13:13 <wrtlprnft> http://ratings.armagetronad.net/?system=cafe
13:13 <eddiefantastic> I misunderstood the luke-jr taliking in plural comment then
13:13 <eddiefantastic> *talking
13:13 * wrtlprnft is confused now.
13:14 <wrtlprnft> connect: Connection refused at sendstats.pl line 39.
13:14 <wrtlprnft> luke-jr: restart your stats server thing so it stops spamming my screen session x_X
13:15 <wrtlprnft> i don't care if it's ~5AM at your place
13:15 <eddiefantastic> :) When you said: "wrtlprnft wonders why luke-jr always talks in the plural" I thought you were referring to his ratings
13:15 <wrtlprnft> oh
13:16 <wrtlprnft> i was referring to NOTICE: A bug was discovered in __OUR__ implementation of the Glicko2 rating algorithm. As a result, __WE__ have fixed the bug and RESET the ratings of all players. Sorry for the inconvenience.
13:16 <pippijn> plus
13:16 <eddiefantastic> and the stats only rely on edlog for the who's playing section and the match history

13:18 <pippijn> nobody writes any ideas
13:18 <eddiefantastic> pippijn: what is your server called?
13:18 <wrtlprnft> how busy is the server?
13:18 <pippijn> wrtlprnft: not very busy

13:19 <pippijn> eddiefantastic: xinutec
13:19 <wrtlprnft> you need a somewhat popular server to gather ideas ;-)
13:19 <pippijn> yes
13:19 <pippijn> mine is very young
13:19 <pippijn> by the way, how do you get server score?
13:19 <wrtlprnft> ?
13:19 <pippijn> mine started at 0, now it's -7
13:20 <wrtlprnft> it's got at least the ping and number of players factored into it
13:20 <pippijn> some are around 200
13:20 <pippijn> ah
13:21 <pippijn> I guess having a server in germany doesn't help
13:22 <pippijn> ping fluctuates between 28 and 140
13:22 <wrtlprnft> the score formula appears to be in nServerInfo::CalcScore()
13:22 <pippijn> ah
13:22 <wrtlprnft> wtf
13:22 <pippijn> hm?
13:23 <wrtlprnft> more recent versions get a higher score
13:23 <pippijn> really? uh..
13:23 <wrtlprnft> score -= fabsf( this->Version().Max() - sn_MyVersion().Max() ) * 10;
13:23 <wrtlprnft> actually, that's wrong
13:23 <pippijn> -=
13:23 <pippijn> they get lower score
13:23 <wrtlprnft> versions closely matching your own get a higher score
13:23 <wrtlprnft> i didn't see the fabsf
13:23 <pippijn> oh, yes
13:24 <wrtlprnft> apparently the code things 4–5 users are perfect for a server
13:24 <wrtlprnft> *thinks
13:27 <wrtlprnft> probably the server was empty (which leads to a score of 100-100) and it had slightly more than .1 seconds response time when it was rated -7
13:28 <pippijn> maxusers doesn't matter?
13:29 <duudii> hitting the plus key on the numpad adds to the server score also?
13:29 <pippijn> duudii: only locally, doesn't it?
13:29 <duudii> don't know if it shows up globally...
13:29 <duudii> maybe..
13:29 <wrtlprnft> duudii: yeah, of course, but that's local
13:29 <duudii> ok, heh
13:32 <pippijn> wow..
13:32 <pippijn> having 4 players gives you 400 score right away
13:32 <pippijn> that's sick

15:42 <wrtlprnft> pippijn: well, now you know
15:43 <pippijn> wrtlprnft: is there something that prevents changing the behaviour of this map settings thing?
15:43 <pippijn> anything
15:51 <wrtlprnft> ?
15:51 <pippijn> well
15:52 <pippijn> having map-specific settings inside maps makes sense
15:52 <pippijn> and map_size is a map-specific setting
15:52 <wrtlprnft> no.
15:52 <P4> you mean size_factor
15:52 <pippijn> size_factor, yes
15:52 <wrtlprnft> if you really want to force the map to have a specific size you can physically scale it
15:53 <wrtlprnft> putting settings into maps only takes away their flexibility because you can't override them
15:53 <pippijn> then that needs changing as well
15:53 <pippijn> an override.cfg or something
15:53 <wrtlprnft> FORTRESS_MAX_PER_TEAM is a perfect candidate for a map specific setting
15:54 <wrtlprnft> pippijn: it's not that easy
15:54 <pippijn> why not?
15:54 <wrtlprnft> the settings in the map file are treated the same way as if they were entered on the console
15:55 <wrtlprnft> but the map gets parsed pretty much after everything else
15:55 <pippijn> why?
15:55 <pippijn> why so late?
15:55 <wrtlprnft> needs to be after everytime.cfg
16:32 -!- flex [n=savas@unaffiliated/savas] has quit ["bye"]
16:43 <zmanuel> We could, of course, parse the map in two phases, one for the settings, the second for the geometry.
16:43 <zmanuel> But I'd prefer it if settings would get removed from maps in the long run.
16:43 -!- zmanuel is now known as z-man
16:44 <z-man> Instead of settings in maps, there should be a different resource type with settings that just references a map.
16:44 <z-man> and since referencing a map is done via the setting map_file, we're at configuration resources again :)
16:45 * pippijn would be in favour of xml configs
16:45 <z-man> xml is nice, but for most cases, plain "key value" pairs are easier for the poor humans who edit the files.
16:55 <wrtlprnft> actually, we already have RINCLUDE now
17:14 <wrtlprnft> z-man: is it sort of safe to enable authentication on a server? will it harm anything?
17:14 <z-man> It will disable the old ADMIN_PASS login.
17:14 <wrtlprnft> i can live with that :-)
17:14 <wrtlprnft> luke-jr: your stats thing is still down.
17:15 <z-man> Other than that, no, no bad side effects are know.
17:16 <wrtlprnft> does the @forums work by default or do you have to tell it about that alias somehow?
17:17 <z-man> I'll be merging the auth branch back into 0.2.8 very soonish, after fixing the explosion problem
17:17 <wrtlprnft> or does it assume that anything w/o a TLD is a subdomain of armagetronad.net?
17:17 <z-man> you have to set "GLOBAL_ID 1"
17:17 <wrtlprnft> ah, ok
17:17 <z-man> Our default policy is "no unauthorized connection to external servers" :)
17:17 <wrtlprnft> auth branch? I thought it was an #ifdef “branch”
17:18 <z-man> It's both.
17:18 <z-man> After the merge, it'll be only an #ifdef branch.
17:18 <wrtlprnft> does the SVN branch contain any important stuff?
17:19 <z-man> Important? Apart from authentication?
17:19 <z-man> The team management is also there, because that's usually only useful with authentication.
17:19 <wrtlprnft> what's the current #ifdef branch, then?
17:20 <z-man> It's the old KRAWALL code and incomplete.
17:21 <z-man> Activating it has no good effect at all :)
17:21 <wrtlprnft> ouch.
17:21 <z-man> You are forced to log in before you play, but login means enter a username and password == username :)
17:21 <wrtlprnft> helpful.
17:28 <wrtlprnft> hmm, i'm thinking about a way to encourage people to armathenticate…
17:28 <wrtlprnft> maybe only allow armathenticated people to shuffle up
17:30 <z-man> Yep, good idea.

17:31 <z-man> Ok, I'll now merge the pending changes from 0.2.8 to the trunk, then merge 0.2.8-auth to 0.2.8, then merge to the trunk again.
17:31 <wrtlprnft> ah, ok
17:31 * wrtlprnft deletes his 0.2.8-auth working copy again
17:31 <z-man> conflict hell time :)
17:32 <z-man> you should be able to safely get your local changes to 0.2.8 with svn switch.
17:32 <z-man> where "safely" means with just as many conflicts as I'll get now :)
17:32 <wrtlprnft> i don't have any local changes
17:33 <z-man> I thought you were going to make some.
17:33 <wrtlprnft> what's going on with that new config system thing, by the way
17:33 <wrtlprnft> well, if you're merging right now i'll wait with that
17:34 <z-man> It'll be some minutes, the first merge to the trunk is going to take a while.
17:34 <z-man> nothing about a new config system, so far, we just have ramblings.
17:35 <wrtlprnft> ah, ok
17:37 * wrtlprnft is thinking that we could replace the SILENCE/VOICE stuff by access levels > 20
17:39 <z-man> That could also remove the players from the game.
17:39 <Mixnetwork> hi all, good evening :D
17:55 <wrtlprnft> am i misunderstanding something here or does the server prohibit unarmathenticated players to play as soon as four armathenticated players are online?

17:59 <z-man> yes, but there is an upper limit.
17:59 <wrtlprnft> 578 // minimal sliding access level to play (slides up as soon as enoughpeople of higher access level get authenticated )
17:59 <wrtlprnft> so that's in fact the maximal access level?
18:00 <wrtlprnft> the wording in the comments is sort of confusing
18:00 <z-man> yeah, sorry, I'll rework it
18:00 <z-man> the gist is this:
18:00 <z-man> if your level is higher than access_level_play_sliding, you can always play.
18:01 <z-man> if your access level is lower than access_level_play, you can never play.
18:01 <z-man> if it is in between, then you can play as long as not at least ACCESS_LEVEL_PLAY_SLIDERS players of higher level than you are present.
18:02 <wrtlprnft> 626 // if enough players are above the current level, increase it
18:02 <wrtlprnft> 627 newAccessLevel --;
18:02 <wrtlprnft> makes me wonder about my sanity ;)
18:02 <z-man> It's a bit of a silly idea, and I would not object to remove it again
18:02 <z-man> the team management system is more flexible and easier to explain :)
18:03 <wrtlprnft> might make sense for tournament servers
18:04 <wrtlprnft> let newbies play, but as soon as it gets populated by team captains and their team members gently push them away to DDL
18:04 <z-man> Yeah, that was the idea. But getiing teams locked and inviting the right players works better.
18:04 <z-man> Especially, it won't trigger the tournament mode on accident, just because the right number of players authenticates.
18:05 * z-man is almost done with merging
18:05 <wrtlprnft> that's the problem i'm having with it
18:05 * wrtlprnft stfu to get the merge done asap
18:07 <z-man> Note: i have not yet tested whether --enable-armathentication works in the merge :)

19:47 <pippijn> I know how to multiply NxN with NxN matrices
19:48 <pippijn> and how to mult MxN with NxM matrices
19:48 <pippijn> but NxM with NxN matrices or any other weird combination, I don't know
19:49 <wrtlprnft> well, a 3×3 matrix multiplied with a 3×1 “matrix” makes sense, too
19:50 <pippijn> yes
19:50 <pippijn> but 1×3?
19:53 <wrtlprnft> maybe the other way
19:53 <wrtlprnft> a row vector times a matrix
19:55 <pippijn> / 1 4 \
19:55 <pippijn> | 2 5 | · / 1 2 4 5 4 4 \
19:55 <pippijn> \ 3 6 / \ 3 4 5 5 2 4 /
19:55 <pippijn> how does this work?
19:55 <pippijn> ah yeah

20:18 <pippijn> wrtlprnft: determinants can only be derived from NxN matrices, right?
20:20 <wrtlprnft> yeah
20:20 <pippijn> right
20:20 <wrtlprnft> i'm not an expert, though
20:20 <pippijn> it has to be square
20:20 * wrtlprnft is just a normal grade 13 student
20:21 <pippijn> I'm a stupid college student in the first semester who hasn't paid attention in maths
20:21 <wrtlprnft> what's your subject?
20:22 <pippijn> computer science
20:22 <wrtlprnft> that's what i'm gonna do, too
20:22 <pippijn> nice :-)
20:22 <wrtlprnft> big surprise.
20:22 <pippijn> a question..
20:23 <pippijn> if you have a 4x4 matrix, you have to calculate the determinant of several 3x3 matrixes first
20:23 <pippijn> and for 3x3 matrices, you can do the same
20:23 <pippijn> what is the theorem called that says this?
20:23 <pippijn> laplace?
20:24 <wrtlprnft> gaussian elimination?
20:24 <wrtlprnft> no, that's the other method
20:24 <wrtlprnft> cofactor expansion?
20:25 <wrtlprnft> which is the same as laplace expansion
20:25 <pippijn> sarrus rule
20:25 <pippijn> that's for the determinant
20:26 <pippijn> sarrus is just for up to 3x3
20:26 <pippijn> laplace is for the rest
20:29 <pippijn> 20:34 < armagetron> <Axel> 0xffooooh0xooffaai

20:29 <epsy> ?
20:29 <wrtlprnft> pippijn: ?
20:29 <pippijn> does armagetron expand o to 0?
20:29 <pippijn> this is supposed to be "hi" in colours
20:29 <wrtlprnft> no.
20:29 <pippijn> good
20:29 <wrtlprnft> that's probably just someone being too stupid to copy a color code
20:29 <wrtlprnft> seen that many time
20:29 <wrtlprnft> s
20:30 <pippijn> good :-)
20:30 <wrtlprnft> in the mangled player names found in ladderlog.txt and /players, '0's are converted to 'o's, after stripping color codes.

20:34 <pippijn> does anyone here know how much bandwidth a server uses per user?
20:35 <wrtlprnft> there's a number on the wiki somewhere
20:35 <wrtlprnft> it depends on the density of turns and the number of fortress zones, though
20:35 <wrtlprnft> and it doesn't grow in a linear fashion
20:36 <pippijn> I would like to know how much it takes for 8 players
20:36 <pippijn> more than that, I will unlikely ever have
20:36 <pippijn> and surely not for a long time
20:36 <pippijn> my server is quiet for most of the time
20:36 <pippijn> so I think 1 constant user would be a lot compared to my usage
20:37 <pippijn> okay
20:37 <pippijn> it's around 13-20KiB/sec for 5 players

20:38 <pippijn> oh.. 7
20:38 <pippijn> it fluctuates a lot indeed
20:38 <wrtlprnft> in case you care: my server had 26 GB traffic in january, most of it is probably cause by arma
20:39 <pippijn> ah okay
20:39 <pippijn> my contract can take 300GiB per month
20:39 <pippijn> after that I have to pay more
20:39 <pippijn> I currently don't use much of it
20:39 <wrtlprnft> i never exeeded that
20:39 <pippijn> I won't either, probably
20:40 <pippijn> I don't serve files
20:40 <wrtlprnft> the only times i get any noteworthy traffic is if i download some torrent onto my server
20:41 <wrtlprnft> for the fun of watching it reach several mb/sec
20:41 <wrtlprnft> (legal torrents, of course)
20:41 <pippijn> of course
20:41 <pippijn> it would be a bad idea to do anything illegal on my server :-)
20:41 <wrtlprnft> on mine, too
20:41 <pippijn> I can't lose it
20:41 <pippijn> I depend on it too much
20:42 * luke-jr notes torrents aren't illegal
20:42 <wrtlprnft> not all torrents are illegal

21:04 <wrtlprnft> what happened to armathentication?
21:05 <z-man> The compile flag is still called that way, but there's also lots of krawall left in the code, so I left this one file and class at nAuthentication.
21:05 <z-man> We would have to rename the preprocessor macro and all that, and I'm not in the mood :)

21:08 <pippijn> in the mood
21:09 <wrtlprnft> oh
21:11 <wrtlprnft> so armathentication isn't the official term anymore? :-(
21:11 <z-man> There is no true official term.
21:12 <z-man> If you want to adapt english.txt, feel free.
21:12 <wrtlprnft> i just feared that you wanted to ban armathentication completely
21:12 <z-man> Nothing has been translated yet (on purpose), so we're free to still mess with it.
21:12 <z-man> nah, I don't mind.
21:12 <z-man> I think it's a bit silly, but don't let that stop you :)
21:13 <wrtlprnft> well, it leads to all sorts of funny words
21:13 <wrtlprnft> armathenticate
21:14 <z-man> And armathority
21:14 <wrtlprnft> lol.
21:15 <wrtlprnft> maybe it's best to leave it in a few select places
21:16 <z-man> Maybe.
21:20 <wrtlprnft> if we want to get the maximum possible confusion effect we should make sure that the terms authentication, authentification, armathication, armathentication and armathentification all appear and no preference is given to either term

21:48 <luke-jr> yes it is
21:48 <luke-jr> non-auth servers cannot generate usernames with 0 in them
21:49 <wrtlprnft> yes they can
21:49 <wrtlprnft> if they're older than 0.2.8
21:49 <wrtlprnft> in fact i think that 0→o change was only intruduced in 0.2.8.2 or so

21:50 <luke-jr> ?
21:50 <epsy> oh, got it, but still not 100% sure
21:51 <wrtlprnft> luke-jr: i'd not worry about the 0, though. 0.2.8.2 has it, and you can just say you don't accept pre-0.2.8.2 servers in your logs

21:53 <wrtlprnft> and you can't generate md5(pass+salt) from md5(pass)
21:53 <epsy> i have some idea
21:53 <epsy> let me explain it..
21:54 <wrtlprnft> actually, you can use plain md5sums if you decide not to support old clients
21:54 <epsy> hash arma's hash with phpbb's algorythm and vice versa
21:54 <epsy> hm
21:54 <epsy> how did tank do?
21:54 <luke-jr> wrtlprnft: please restart server when changing that setting >_<
21:54 <wrtlprnft> why?
21:55 <luke-jr> it doesn't tell me at all
21:55 <wrtlprnft> epsy: that's why you needed to log out and back in
21:55 <epsy> ?
21:55 <wrtlprnft> so the forums get the original password and can save md5(pass+'\0') in their db

22:02 <luke-jr> …
22:02 <luke-jr> so how are non-auth'd names escaped, z-man?
22:03 <wrtlprnft> The log format in ladderlog.txt is picked so that no unauthenticated user can ever appear under the same name as an authenticated user. To achieve that, @ signs are escaped for unauthenticated users. That changes their names relative to the way they appeared in older versions of the server. If you rather want to keep the names of unauthenticated players as they were before, change this to 1:
22:04 <luke-jr> that doesn't say
22:04 <luke-jr> escaped *how*?
22:04 <wrtlprnft> \@
22:05 <wrtlprnft> and %:\ are escaped in the same waa
22:05 <wrtlprnft> *way

22:40 <epsy> or should i prefix with http:// .
22:40 <epsy> *?
22:41 <luke-jr> wrtlprnft: if you want to test, r833+ support an optional first argument 'auth' to handle the new mangling
22:41 <luke-jr> epsy: no schema
22:41 <epsy> ?
22:41 <luke-jr> wrtlprnft: but please be sure not to send old-mangled stuff with it
22:44 <epsy> wrtlprnft, x fort/sumo uses old translation files

22:57 <luke-jr> z-man: wtf does the PROMPT for login get delayed? :\
22:59 <epsy> luke-jr, i get the prompts correctly, it's just that my script must be fucked or smth

23:01 <armabot> armagetronad: luke-jr * r7734 /tools/http-auth-server/trunk/armaauth.php: HTTP_HOST is more relevant than SERVER_NAME
23:09 <epsy> hm i must be storing passwords the wrong way
23:10 <z-man> luke-jr: on my servers? because they record.
23:10 <luke-jr> z-man: on non-threaded servers in general
23:10 <z-man> Exactly, and recording and threading don't mix.
23:11 <z-man> Nothing gets delayed for server local accounts.
23:11 <z-man> I could probably cache the data required to trigger the prompt, but delays are inevitable.
23:15 <luke-jr> delays should be validating the login info
23:16 <luke-jr> not prompting for it
23:16 <luke-jr> it doesn't need to make any fetching to prompt
23:17 <z-man> It does.
23:18 <z-man> It needs to communicate with the armathority to fetch the list of supported methods and the parameters for the method.
23:18 <luke-jr> supported methods can vary between user
23:18 <luke-jr> s
23:18 <luke-jr> btw, the code on wrtl's server doesn't work for real domains
23:18 <z-man> no, but between authorities. As I said, that information could be cached in principle.
23:20 <luke-jr> when did we drop the ability to vary methods between users?
23:20 <luke-jr> last I checked, that was an important requirement
23:23 <z-man> orly? nobody ever mentioned that.
23:23 <luke-jr> especially seeing as our primary authority varies in such a way

23:29 <luke-jr> z-man: well, it's not working as documented for epsy or I
23:30 <luke-jr> [15:51:19] <epsy> and Auth URL xclan.armagetron.co.uk is invalid, illegal characters
23:30 <luke-jr> z-man: if I use /login or /login dashjr.org, both try to do something with local users

23:33 -!- epsy [n=epsy@mar75-4-82-227-65-72.fbx.proxad.net] has quit ["09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 gfduxitgerhyuiovfg<hqiùHMhAU_IGHIUDRLGHUGYgyhugbysgfæÊ€æÊ»þýýûÎÃ]

23:36 <z-man> can't say why dashjr.org doesn't work for you, master1.armagetronad.net works for me, and no, I don't count dots :)
23:37 <flex> epsy, where's the button on the forums that auto marks all topics as read
23:37 <z-man> dashjr.org does not work because it's not up to spec.
23:37 <luke-jr> z-man: just updated it, and it works from a browser
23:38 <luke-jr> not my fault guru3 writes code that only works on his system
23:38 <z-man> The error message I get from arma is 404 not found, so it looks like you put it into the wrog place
23:38 <z-man> for a RTFM junkie, you're dammed lazy when it comes to reading specs yourself.
23:38 * luke-jr oops
23:39 <luke-jr> not my fault guru3 can't use directories :þ
