Slime Salad

Well that's disastrous. But strange; I haven't heard anything from other Mac users or anyone else. Maybe you could run autotest.rpg (it runs automatically without interaction; don't press any keys) and then post your g_debug.txt if it fails? It'll take a few minutes (unless you run it with --runfast...

Oh, I forgot about the timer priorities already. I still want to do that. I've fixed the blending bug when screen fades occur, and am working on script commands... and a couple plotdict changes. Just as a curiosity. Is there any reason not to drop support for all drivers except SDL2? gfx_sdl2 doesn'...

EDIT: Have timer scripts that run once a tick always been like that? Maybe I missed it. The timer was just queued underneath the cutscene, and the workaround was to just call the timer script directly once at the beginning of the cutscene. Oh well. I only noticed this a few months ago myself, but b...

(Edit: I wrote this before those last two replies. Wobbler: if you want a soft circle of light instead of a hard one, that's the ideal use-case for Multiply blending) Gorgonzola is going to be only two weeks late, quite a turn-around! We did declare the RC a bit early; there are still some more bugf...

The script interpreter isn't terribly slow. On a very small set of benchmarks (testgame/benchmark.py and benchmark.rpg), it's 1-3x slower than CPython 2, and sometimes faster than CPython 3. So, there's a little bit of a "pick your poison" type of situation with the "multdiv" fun...

sin and cos sure get used a lot, but I don't want to add them before we support floating point. I wrote a script which takes angle and multiplier args consults a lookup table for people who need it. Although... come to think of it, I could add sin/cos/tan as two-argument math functions, where the se...

Crazy. Hardly seen anyone wear masks here, I don't think the government has even encouraged it. I had a look at the Void Pyramid scripts. Interesting that Willy frequently puts another statement or 'end' on the same line as a closing ')'. I've only ever seen people do that because they were sloppy. ...

Kylekrack has been posting previews of some great new features in discord! There already is a multdiv function (it's not a math function), which is basically what you want. multdiv avoids overflow of intermediate result, and rounds the result (which is usually what you want). It isn't documented in ...

I'm going to pretend that I thought that April 1st was the contest start date rather than the end date... because that's when I started. Was thinking of making it a 48 hour game, but I kind of forgot how utterly short and incomplete 48 hour games are even if you actually put in the hours, which I'm ...

Ah, I was wondering what glitches in Baconthulhu you meant, because I didn't see any when playing either. You mean a tool to convert from existing syntax to new syntax? Actually that's a nice idea, then we can make syntax changes far more freely (though people will still have to re-learn) or have an...

I rewrote "include" handling, which allowed getting rid of name_concat, which alllowed getting rid of automatic commas at newlines, which allowed some significant changes to the grammar. I removed some uses of 'empty' (there's just one left), added statement, statement_list, nonempty_state...

Oh, I got the line numbers to sync up a different way. And I already had a t_ignore_COMMENT rule identical to that, and had moved the line-end commas to fix it. Although I see I forgot to update hsi.py in the same way... actually, it turns out that just removing ',' from the line concatenation in hs...

Breaking compatibility wasn't a problem; those are pretty small changes. The file reorganisation mixed in with so many other changes took some disentangling. I've now merged most of your changes and pushed to svn, so I can continue to merge selected changes from you. But we will diverge further. I p...

Very nice. Yes, I suppose that's a pretty reasonable alternative to $+ and $=... however, is that going to prevent $msg+i="" from parsing? A git mirror is here . We've diverged, but I want to merge some of your changes back in, particularly the file reorganisation. I added better error rep...

Using slice commands you could make the walkabout sprite invisible. The effect will be identical to making it invisible using "set hero picture". Why do you want an invisible hero which doesn't appear in the hero menus? Isn't the same thing as a hero that's swapped out of the party? Maybe ...
