I agree that things have been very slow. I am also concerned about the overall health of the project. I know a few of our main coders have been on vacation at different times this month. I'm hoping some of it can be put off to that. I have had a few things come up that are putting high demands on my...

Yoghurt sent me this preview of the chatwindow code: void ClientApp HandleChatMessage(ChatMessage message) { if (message.Sender() == "Nightfish") { DisplayChatMsg(AolTranslate(message.Text())); } else { DisplayChatMsg(message.Text()); } }

I appreciate the offer, but don't feel this is necessary. Our programming team is rather small, and with one exception, has been around since day 1 of the project. We have a pretty functional breakdown of the workload as is and there isn't any need at this point for more complicated tracking. Also s...

You need to copy the runtime libraries to your boost lib dir:
libboost_filesystem.a
libboost_regex.a
libboost_signals.a

We've had a good deal of progress in the last month. Autoconfig tools have been added to the project, GG has been moved out to be used as a separate library, work has begun on the galaxy map, and empire setup continues to progress. We've added threads to track CVS updates and to keep tabs on develop...

Ok, I lied, after further review I realized it didn't work for GG either :oops: . I got it to work in both cases by copying the runtime libraries into /usr/boost_1_30_0/libs and using the following command-line options: configure --with-boost-include=/usr/boost_1_30_0 --with-boost-libdir=/usr/boost_...

I'm using these scripts for the first time to pick up the latest updates. It's having trouble finding Boost. Here's the log: checking for the Boost C++ libraries, version 1.3.0 or newer... no checking for main in -lboost_regex... no checking for main in -lboost_filesystem... no checking for main in ...

But it should be very rare and occurs with P = .005 in the early phases of the game. And it should be a problem without any chance of solution. It may results in suffering and death. Hopeless. <snip> Perhaps that increase some frustration. LOL, yeah, I'd say that would increase some frustration :lo...

I'm sure Zach will have something to say on this since this system is more or less as he proposed it. When a player issues an order, that will generate an order object, but does not directly modify any universe data. So when displaying things the UI should reference the universe data, then check the...

I rather suspect that people here don't disagree as much as you might think you do. I think some of the language is confusing and that Zach and Drek's ideas of encapsulation might not be all that far off. Examples might prove helpful, as I'm hoping Drek's demo will. On the topic, I mostly agree with...
