Yeah, now for the long process of coding... procrastinators of the world unite... tomorrow... or Thursday...

I hope to have the stories done by sometime next week.

Or the week after that.
Or next month/year/decade/lifetime.

heh it only took me 6 months to rewrite my stats system.

I think I'll start with the fun parts: creating weapons and testing them on helpless centauri. Creating new armors and shields and watching the centauri attack in a dedicated yet ultimately futile and pointless onslaught, while I pick them off with the previously mentioned weapon

Then I guess I'll have to do some work for the stations...

Ah get the hard stuff done first, so you can procrasinate even more! Always helpful for making an Extension!

I'm a big procrastinator -- no wonder Hell's Trinity is taking so long to complete.

or I could have fun with weapons blowing up the stations which I design for the mod. Then I have fun and get work done. That's really the only reason I do big school projects: the promise of getting to destroy them after I get a grade on it.

Like a day at the beach. Build the biggest sandcastle ever and then DESTROY IT!!!!

[Drako Slyith]

Yeah, destroy build destroy... Great fun.

[Drako Slyith]

Anyway, what I'm doing now is I do some coding of a station, then I work on items, then more stations... Right now I'm distracting myself with these forums...

[Ttech]

heh try being on IRC for three years, I have not gotten any decent work done aside from work... in that time till now

[Drako Slyith]

anyway back on topic of this mod, I just posted an update on Xelerus, mostly I added a few topology elements that lets you go from some branches to others. I also fixed a few topology issues.
I also have some of the code for the stories discussed here (Korolov station and gun) it is not used yet because I still have some issues to sort out. The xml is called 'stories'.

also, I keep getting a "critical error" on these forums. Anyone else getting this error? The screen says

Code: Select all

phpBB : Critical Error

Error clearing sessions table

DEBUG MODE

SQL Error : 1034 Incorrect key file for table 'phpbb_sessions'; try to repair it

DELETE FROM phpbb_sessions WHERE session_time < 1294784539 AND session_id <> '95ed46338505cf1fa86ccf2f7cdefe7b'

Yeah, this forum has a long history of errors. It is all part of the strategy to keep out people who just expect things to work!

Kidding of course!

The forum regularly goes through some spells of not working. We are all hoping it will pass with an eventual upgrade.

When you do get an error, basically just keep trying. If you are getting the "white screen" errors, and you just posted, then your post typically did not get submitted, so go back and resubmit. If you get the "email error" then your post typically got submitted, something else just borked.

I've gotten 8 different SQL errors this time around, I think that has to be a record.

Hopefuly the database is still in a condition to be imported / exported at some point.

[Drako Slyith]

For me it goes between times of no access, 50/50 access, and full access. I've probably had a dozen errors, at least.
