09:36 <compguiygene> we have a few questions about setting up a master server
09:36 -!- mode/#armagetron [+o Lucifer] by ChanServ
09:36 -!- compguiygene was kicked from #armagetron by Lucifer [you're an obvious faker, compguygene wouldn't typo his own name!]
09:37 <Manta> hello, it's a full moon tonight
09:37 <@Lucifer> is that why I'm so hairy?
09:38 <Manta> I was reading, and realized I have no idea how the master servers work
09:39 <@Lucifer> specific questions, manta...... ;)
09:39 -!- compguygene [n=compguyg@h39.199.17.98.dynamic.ip.windstream.net] has joined #armagetron
09:39 <Manta> do servers just send to one master server and they synchronize themselves, or is each one stand alone
09:39 <compguygene> i appreciate you guys kicking what appeared to be a faker
09:39 <compguygene> lol
09:39 <@Lucifer> :)
09:40 <@Lucifer> Manta: the servers login and report to each hamster server they know about
09:40 <@Lucifer> by default, they know about the 4 we provide
09:40 <@Lucifer> there's a setting to tell them about others, but I don't recall what it is
09:40 <@Lucifer> but that's why they take so long to start (the game servers), because they're reporting to 4 master servers
09:41 <Manta> ok
09:41 <@Lucifer> the master servers synchronize with each other after that
09:41 <@Lucifer> so, say your game server tries to tell all four, but the third one gets no response due to regular internet weather,
09:41 <Manta> is there any compression, of say server names when each server is being pinged by the clients?
09:41 <@Lucifer> it will hear about it from one of the others
09:42 <@Lucifer> none that I'm aware of, the clients ping on their own, completely separate from the master server

09:43 <Manta> ah, good. I see in the log that once in a while I don't connect to one or more so glad to know, it doesn't matter
09:43 <Zurd1> OI!
09:43 -!- Zurd1 was kicked from #armagetron by Lucifer [you're the victim of OP abuse]
09:43 * Lucifer is in a weird mood, weirder than usual, anyway

09:44 <Zurd1> that was rude :(
09:45 -!- Luke-Jr was kicked from #armagetron by Lucifer [not as rude as this: randomly kicking someone who isn't even here]
09:45 <@Lucifer> maybe I shoudl deop
09:45 -!- mode/#armagetron [-o Lucifer] by ChanServ
09:45 <Lucifer> there, that's better
09:45 <Zurd1> lol
09:45 <Lucifer> now I wont' be tempted to randomly kick people for some stupid made-up reasons
09:45 <Manta> I compiled a server with the, enable-master flag but did not notice any deference
09:46 <Lucifer> that just builds a master server
09:46 <Lucifer> you shouldn't notice any difference
09:46 <Lucifer> but you probably have a binary laying around that is a master server
09:46 <Lucifer> if you start that up, you could RULE THE WORLD!!!!
09:46 * Lucifer considers kicking Manta for trying to rule the world, however inadvertent his attempt might be
09:46 <Manta> Mcp over all!!!

09:47 <Lucifer> haha
09:47 <Lucifer> bah, I've had too much to drink to provide serious support
09:47 <Lucifer> I have answered your question, just a little on the whacky side
09:48 <Subliminal> lucy im home <3
09:48 <Lucifer> I also have a spider that keeps coming down from the ceiling, but doesn't appear to be trying to go up to the ceiling
09:48 <Lucifer> leading me to believe there's 3000 spiders coming down from the ceiling
09:48 <Lucifer> heya Subliminal (hi there!)
09:48 <Lucifer> youv'e been gone for awhile, haven't you?
09:48 <Manta> ah, if I just read down (3) lines I would have found that file :p
09:48 <Lucifer> or have I? I always forget which....
09:49 <Subliminal> not really lol, prolly you
09:49 <Lucifer> prolly me
09:49 <Lucifer> I haven't played since I upgraded to Intrepid, which, for some reason or other, doesn't recognize my ungodly old nvidia graphics card
09:49 <Subliminal> ce mai faceti
09:50 <Lucifer> that's french for "I like dick", right?
09:50 <Subliminal> would you be surprised?
09:50 <Lucifer> from you? no....
09:50 <Manta> mandrivea is no longer in primetime at your house lucie?
09:50 <Subliminal> but you happened to have missed the entire slipping it into a blender thing
09:51 <Lucifer> YOU PUT MY DICK IN A BLENDER?!?!?!?

09:51 <Subliminal> WELL THERE WASNT MUCH OTHER USES FOR IT
09:51 <compguygene> lmao
09:51 <Subliminal> ^^
09:51 <Lucifer> Manta: no, no more Mandriva
09:51 <Lucifer> I switched to Ubuntu quite some time ago, actually
09:51 <Lucifer> before my divorce
09:51 <Subliminal> so how you been luci
09:51 <Lucifer> Subliminal: well, I got divorced, so I'm doing good
09:52 <Subliminal> i just heard strange things over vent about you just a second ago luci
09:52 <Subliminal> dest is with manta
09:52 <Subliminal> and read man drive
09:52 <Subliminal> thinking sex drive
09:52 <Subliminal> and your response?
09:52 <Lucifer> I already knew destiny was with manta
09:53 <Lucifer> but mandrive = mandriva = obscure and mostly useless linux distribution
09:53 <Lucifer> I'm on ubuntu with my own custom desktop environment now
09:53 <Subliminal> o gawd i hear either the squeels and giggles of destiny playing through a tuba or mantas havign a stroke
09:53 <Lucifer> it has a systray that I wrote, and a dock that I didn't write
09:53 <Lucifer> probably mantas got three fingers into destiny
09:53 <Lucifer> er
09:53 <Lucifer> did I actually type that?
09:53 * Lucifer has had more than a bottle of wine tonight
09:53 <Subliminal> well how else are you supposed to pull out a tooth
09:53 <Subliminal> ^^
09:54 <Zurd1> haha
09:54 <Lucifer> I could use my fist, then it'd fall out
09:54 <Manta> hey you have to drown the sorrow some how
09:54 <Lucifer> sorrow's long over, this bottle is to help me get to sleep at a reasonable hour
09:54 <Subliminal> yes but your fist is quite tightly placed in between your rectum
09:54 <Lucifer> is not!
09:54 * Lucifer fisted some chick night before last
09:54 <Lucifer> but couldn't get up to the knuckles before she fell down
09:54 <Subliminal> fisting a chicken to get eggs?
09:55 <Subliminal> you freak!
09:55 <Manta> so building on plain X then?
09:55 <Lucifer> no, you're the freak!
09:55 <Subliminal> no no im FreQ
09:55 <Subliminal> i kill people with love and daggers
09:55 <Lucifer> Manta: more or less, I've started my own desktop environment that's totally nonfunctional, unless you're me, in which case you know every line of code that's gone into it
09:55 <Lucifer> OpenBox is the window manager, cairo is the dock, and I wrote my own systray
09:56 <Subliminal> meaning he took a typical distro, and emulated it on his seiko watch
09:56 <compguygene> one would have to ask why luci
09:56 <Lucifer> very soon I'll be alpha geek everywhere except in #qt, #kde, and #gnome
09:56 <Lucifer> compguygene: if you knew my ex-wife, you wouldn't even ask
09:56 <Subliminal> lmao
09:57 <Manta> My box it to overpowered for anything less than kde
09:57 <compguygene> i think i get the idea
09:57 * compguygene just fell off his chair laughing
09:57 * Zurd1 heard him
09:57 <Lucifer> Manta: actually, I started it becuase KDE wants more power than my computer can give
09:57 <Subliminal> that was a bad joker imitation CodeBlock
09:57 <Subliminal> *compgene
09:57 <Subliminal> o o o dest's vader impersonation
09:57 <Lucifer> so, why does anybody think Code Hunter is smart enough to hack ID forums, anyway?
09:58 <Lucifer> he's like the world's ultimate idiot....
09:58 <Subliminal> script kiddy imho
09:58 * compguygene agrees
09:58 <Subliminal> prolly ripped code from milworm
09:58 <Lucifer> you guys are giving him more credit than he deserves
09:58 <compguygene> there is the possibility that he was given an admin password
09:58 <Lucifer> you think he really could download something, read the README, and make it work?
09:58 <compguygene> no
09:58 <Subliminal> luci even you barely get to rtfm
09:58 <Manta> do you notice a difference from the binaries from debian vs ubuntu, debian has always seemed much faster
09:59 <Lucifer> I think it's more likely that someone managed to get him to download a worm
09:59 <Lucifer> Manta: no, because Ubuntu and debian share so many repositories.....
09:59 <Lucifer> Debian compiles for 386, and ubuntu compiles for 586
09:59 <Lucifer> so logically, ubuntu should be faster
09:59 <Manta> hmm
10:00 <Subliminal> lucifer pretend compguygene was god and Manta was buddha, what would you say to them right now in your bareassed drunken state
10:00 <Lucifer> FUCK YOU@
10:00 <Subliminal> lmao
10:00 <Manta> maybe it's the ammout of stuff loaded by default
10:00 <Lucifer> you do know, of course, that buddha isn't worshipped as a god except by asshats, right?
10:00 <Lucifer> Manta: probably. Ubuntu tries to be the distribution for people who just finished therapy for MS Windows
10:01 <Lucifer> and Debian is the holier-than-thou-you-should-love-free-software version of that
10:01 <Manta> and mandrake users it seems
10:01 <Lucifer> I used to be a mandrake user
10:01 <Lucifer> I forget why I switched, though
10:01 <Lucifer> Mandrake did something horrible, that's all I remember
10:01 <Lucifer> maybe I did it because my ex-wife is a bitch
10:02 <Subliminal> took your food, clothes, house, but left you trapped in a porta potty with your ex wife
10:02 <Subliminal> ?
10:02 <compguygene> well..i have setup a few "grandma computers" with ubuntu....it does work well with easy setup
10:02 <Manta> she said something nice about it once?
10:02 <Lucifer> Manta: don't get divorced, you don't want to feel about destiny the way I feel about my ex-wife
10:02 <Lucifer> actually, my ex didn't notice when I switched from Mandriva to Ubuntu
10:02 <Subliminal> luci we divorced but you still love me :D <3
10:03 <Lucifer> she was too busy accusing me of wanting to sleep with my coworkers
10:03 * compguygene and his wife have an agreement, 'till death do us part...induced death if necesary
10:03 * Subliminal can arrange that
10:03 <Lucifer> Faraday said nothing about dying!
10:03 * compguygene is lucky to be in a good 15 year long marriage
10:04 * Lucifer made it 12 years, and then left the bitch high and dry
10:04 <Subliminal> with a bottle of vodka?
10:04 <Lucifer> actualy, I have to admit, the only reason I'm bitter about it today is because I suspect she's already got her new boyfriend
10:04 <Lucifer> and I don't care about that.....
10:04 <Lucifer> except.....
10:04 <Lucifer> the kids are involved already
10:04 <compguygene> ouch....that hurts
10:04 <Subliminal> king midas >>
10:05 <Lucifer> so if I'm right, she's not just putting her own heart out there to be broken, she's also put my kids' hearts out there to be broken
10:05 <Lucifer> technically, I can only profit by this
10:05 <Lucifer> but if "profit" means "My kids get their hearts broken", I want none of it
10:05 <Subliminal> hire a hit man, get rid of her and spare the kids knowledge of it
10:05 * compguygene should talk to Guido...he's been looking for work lately
10:06 <Lucifer> no, she needs full freedom to bring her next relationship down in flames
10:06 <Subliminal> "mummy's just working very late hours 6 ft under" "doing what?" "shes a very skilled gardener, all plants grow better around her"
10:06 <Lucifer> because the likelihood that she'll find a sucker as big as me is slim
10:06 <Lucifer> I just don't want to see my kids go through it, but I have no choice in the matter
10:06 <compguygene> well, I know ur close w/ur kids
10:06 <Lucifer> all I can do is tell my kids I love them and do my best to take care of them
10:07 <Subliminal> "mummy's just working very late hours 6 ft under" "doing what?" "shes a very skilled gardener, all plants grow better around her"
10:07 <Lucifer> Subliminal: you already said that, dickhead
10:07 <Subliminal> no dick mounted on my head
10:07 <Subliminal> its wedged deeply in your asshat
10:07 <Subliminal> ^^
10:07 <Lucifer> but nevertheless, there's a dick protruding from your head
10:07 <Lucifer> it's mine
10:07 <Lucifer> and it's stuck in your mouth
10:07 <Subliminal> orly
10:07 <Lucifer> and you're gagging, and I"m wishing you'd stop
10:08 <Subliminal> and how would you explain that to the judge
10:08 <Subliminal> what if i said i was jailbait
10:08 <Lucifer> "Your honor, I put my dick in his mouth, and he loved it"
10:08 <Subliminal> *her tyvm
10:08 <Subliminal> kurva
10:08 <compguygene> seriously, can i ask one more question about the master servers lucifer
10:08 <Lucifer> oh, well, in that case, WHY IS MY DICK IN YOUR MOUTH?
10:08 <Lucifer> compguygene: sure, but I can't promise a serious answer
10:08 <compguygene> ok
10:09 <Subliminal> well you must be really drunk then luci, mouth doesnt equal blender
10:09 <Subliminal> youre the one who put it there
10:09 <Lucifer> Subliminal: well, you had it open, what else was I supposed to do?
10:10 <Subliminal> you voluntarily placed it in, slipped it deeper and deeper then felt the "teeth" of the razors
10:10 <compguygene> from what you said...if you wanted to add say a master server on the west coast of the usa to better serve asia, YOu guys would have to flip a switch on the main ones for it to be recognised?
10:10 <Lucifer> compguygene: yeah, except we wouldn't "flip a switch", we'd have to somewhat reconfigure the main ones
10:10 <compguygene> thank you....just curious
10:10 <Lucifer> but why would we put a master server on the west coast to better server asia? Wouldn't we put one in asia to better serve asia?
10:11 <Subliminal> asians arent allowed to play, they have to work 24/7]
10:11 <compguygene> yes...just picking an example out of my overtired brain
10:11 * Lucifer misses Yaza sometimes
10:12 * Lucifer suddenly gets the idea that yaza is still here, just changed his name
10:12 * Subliminal points at top of the list
10:12 <Manta> I would like to compress the world in favor of reducing ping
10:12 <compguygene> this is the most fun i have had on irc in a few years
10:12 <Lucifer> armabot? I know yaza isn't armabot
10:12 * Subliminal points to the name below
10:12 <compguygene> i do really need to go
10:12 <Lucifer> Manta: but compression has the serious risk of raising ping
10:12 <compguygene> catch you all later
10:13 -!- compguygene [n=compguyg@h39.199.17.98.dynamic.ip.windstream.net] has left #armagetron []
10:13 <Lucifer> see, besides the packet size, you have to consider packet processing time, and compression adds to that
10:13 <Lucifer> on both sides
10:13 <Subliminal> luci wouldnt that only be based on the computer the client runs from?
10:13 <Lucifer> you have to compress it on one side, and decompress it on the other
10:13 <Lucifer> Subliminal: it's based on whichever comptuers have to deal with the compression
10:13 <Lucifer> but a ping packet can't be compressed
10:13 <Lucifer> not without making it bigger, anyway
10:14 <Manta> lol true
10:14 <Lucifer> since we switched to google's protocol buffers, we have to option to compress packets, and we'll experiment with it in 0.3.x
10:14 <Manta> my days of 56k, where anything would have helped
10:14 <Lucifer> compression probably wouldn't have helped
10:15 <Lucifer> we had this discussion back when you were still stuck on 56k, because you were stuck on 56k
10:15 <Lucifer> and the consensus was the compression wouldn't have helped
10:15 <Lucifer> what armagetron really needs is throughput
10:15 <Lucifer> compressing individual packets doesn't help because they're already chopped to a pretty small size
10:15 <Manta> hmm aright
10:15 <Lucifer> holding them and compressing them might reduce the total size sent, sure, but then there's the matter of timeliness
10:16 <Manta> that would make sense
10:16 <Lucifer> yeah :)
10:16 <Subliminal> well what about managing them how unreal does in a steady stream
10:16 <Lucifer> I raised the issue awhile back because you were still stuck on dialup
10:16 <Lucifer> it was about that time that I realized a high ping was an advantage ingame anyway :)
10:16 <Lucifer> Subliminal: we're already in a steady stream
10:16 <Lucifer> sync packets get sent out at regular intervals
10:17 <Lucifer> you get diff packets in between those intervals
10:17 <Manta> I was the secrite weapon in euro servers?
10:17 <Lucifer> if one or two fail to get through, that's when you get the weird results on there
10:17 <Lucifer> Manta: yes :)
10:17 <Subliminal> the different packets come in the same order all the time?
10:17 <Lucifer> no, they don't always come in the same order, but the network layer deals with it
10:17 <Subliminal> based on headers
10:17 <Lucifer> UDP = packets delivered as they arrive
10:17 <Lucifer> TCP = packets are reordered to be int he same order on arrival as when sent
10:19 <Lucifer> in fact, I believe (but am not sure) that the network protocol currently sends all changes since the last sync, so that if you lose one packet, you're not tanked
10:19 <Lucifer> the next packet contains the missing information
10:19 <Lucifer> with all that said, I'm going to go make some tea
10:19 <Lucifer> when that's done, I'm going to drink some
10:19 <Lucifer> then I'm going to bed
10:19 <Lucifer> I'm not likely to be back here between now and bedtime
10:19 <Lucifer> Manta: it's good seeing you, maybe sometime I'll have 3d drivers and I can see you ingame
10:20 <Lucifer> we can kick some ass again, just like old times
10:20 <Lucifer> ot get pwned, which would also be just like old times
10:20 <Manta> interesting bed time... manta waves at the sun
10:20 <Manta> night luci, hope things work out for you
10:21 <Subliminal> who handled the main networking code?
10:21 <Subliminal> night luci, if you drink blood make sure its not coagulated

22:31 <Tesseracter> hi, how do i make a game with more than 16 players?
22:31 <Tesseracter> max_clients gets reset.
22:32 <Tesseracter> help?!
22:32 <Tesseracter> ive got 50 kids who want to play....
22:32 <Tesseracter> on a lan game
22:34 <ct|kyle> you need to compile with CXXFLAGS=-DMAXCLIENTS=50
22:38 <PinkTomato> Tesseracter, ( ct|kyle ) if time is an issue I think you can get 32 with the latest beta running as under dedicated mode only.
22:39 <Tesseracter> no other way, seriously?
22:39 <ct|kyle> 32 with a dedicated beta server
22:39 <ct|kyle> if you get 0.2.8.3 beta3 or 4 can't remember latest one
22:39 <Tesseracter> thanks...i didnt know about the compile flag... so mean.
22:40 <ct|kyle> that one defaults to 32 clients still not the 50 though
22:41 <Tesseracter> so with a quadcore and a gigabit ethernet connection, any chance for a compile with 128 players?
22:43 <ct|kyle> you can always try
22:43 <ct|kyle> clients may crash when they exit server as there is a small bug with that, but I don't think it is a big problem
22:44 * ct|kyle is away

• 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...
