Woo, something is happening.

[Phantom Brave]

so where on earth did my word wrap code go

[Orpheon]

Nowhere. Where did you expect it to go? There already exists a GML implementation, and no Python console.

[Phantom Brave]

I can't find a link to it anymore ;_;

Check your downloads folder, if you wrote the code and shared it through a file locker, you may still have it.

After that, check your recycling bin, maybe you threw it away.

[Phantom Brave]

why would I used a file locker for code
why would I code python on windows

[Orpheon]

Ubuntu has a Trash too.

<Orpheon> I just found out an incredibly annoying networking bug
<maciej01> hmm derpy is on?
<maciej01> what bug?
<Orpheon> that was confusing me to no end
<Orpheon> pygg2 syncs states every so often
<Orpheon> game states
<Orpheon> to do that, it just fast-fires states and the client decides whether this state is advanced enough
<maciej01> oh
<Orpheon> so the client only takes the newest state
<Orpheon> now
<Orpheon> I synced the time
<Orpheon> which is a float
<Orpheon> as an int
<Orpheon> which means the client only accepted a new state every second
<Orpheon> urg

[AcidLead]

only seems comical from the perspective of one who isn't scrambling to fix it

[Dusty]

Quick question. what if the game goes on for so long that the int overflows? what happens then?

[Phantom Brave]

it won't, ints are huge
also I'm totally reworking the collision code but it'll take a couple days so yeah don't hold your breath

[Dusty]

ints aren't that huge if the server is trying to send something every frame or so.

[Phantom Brave]

They are if they only change every second

[Dusty]

Orpheon said the client only accepts a new state every second.
Does the server only send a state every second or does it send one every frame?

[Phantom Brave]

It was a bug because of how he was syncing time as an int instead.
