| 00:54 | | Derakon[AFK] is now known as Derakon |
| 03:02 | <&Derakon> | Some preliminary results on the "slap down rectangles" approach to procgen maps: http://imgur.com/a/EEVX3 |
| 03:03 | <&Derakon> | Seems potentially promising; the rule is just "place a new rectangle such that one edge overlaps an existing edge, and the rect does not otherwise intersect any other rects". |
| 03:04 | <&Derakon> | My next iteration will probably be to break the rects into line segments, at which point I can replace the "no rect intersection" rule with simply eliminating the portions of the line segments that intersect. |
| 03:04 | <&Derakon> | At which point I should have a graph with fairly strong interconnectivity, I hop. |
| 03:04 | <&Derakon> | Er, hope. |
| 03:05 | <&Derakon> | So my thinking is at that point, I do a few random walks across the graph, pick one to be my "critical path" (containing all the locks), turn some of the remaining edges into side-jaunts for powerups, and delete the remainder so the map isn't too obviously composed of rectangles. |
| 03:07 | <~Vornotron> | Looks good. |
| 03:16 | <&Derakon> | Incidentally, I'm doing those graphics by writing out HTML with <svg> tags. |
| 03:16 | <&Derakon> | So much easier than invoking PyGame and drawing shapes. -_- |
| 03:16 | <&Derakon> | Or writing out ImageMagick's text image format and then converting that to PNG! |
| 03:16 | <&Derakon> | Both of which I have done in the past. |
| 03:17 | <&Derakon> | Oh, I've also used numpy, I think. |
| 03:24 | <@celticminstrel> | Is it really HTML if it's <svg> tags. |
| 03:25 | <&Derakon> | It's wrapped in <html><body> ... </body></html> |
| 03:25 | <&Derakon> | So...probably! |
| 03:33 | <~Vornotron> | Der: suggestion, use smaller numbers for this segment of generation, and then say that 1 in this size is maybe 8 or 12 or 16 in actual tiles |
| 03:34 | <&Derakon> | The numbers in that display are numerical coordinates, and I'm scaling up by a factor of 10 for the actual drawing. So the rects have fairly quantized sizes. |
| 03:34 | <&Derakon> | Like, that gap between (49,28) and (59,31) is 1 room wide. |
| 03:35 | <&Derakon> | But yeah, refiining the actual sizes is something that'll have to be done at some point. |
| 03:35 | <&Derakon> | Also the balance between horizontal and vertical edges. |
| 03:35 | <&Derakon> | Er, refining. |
| 03:38 | <~Vornotron> | So like that room in the top left is only actually like 6x5 or something |
| 03:38 | <~Vornotron> | ok |
| 03:39 | <&Derakon> | Something like that, yeah. |
| 03:40 | <&Derakon> | Maybe I'll start drawing a grid in my output. |
| 03:43 | <~Vornotron> | Meanwhile, in other kinds of math land: http://imgur.com/o08mQ3m orbital mechanics! |
| 03:45 | <&Derakon> | Neat. What is it? |
| 03:46 | <~Vornotron> | It finds sinusoids that are tangent to the original at a given point and also the x axis |
| 03:47 | <~Vornotron> | This, combined, with a few other tricks, allows me to find transfers between any pair of orbits that don't cross. |
| 03:52 | <~Vornotron> | (orbits around a single point all have the form r = p/(1+e cos theta); by working in inverse-distance space you get a bunch of less terrible trig; I subtract the two orbits, find one of these tangent sinusoids, and then addi n the previously subtracted orbit to find the transfer orbit; then I can use the intersection points and other orbit data to find delta-v requirements.) |

| 06:30 | <~Vornotron> | Oh. It does work with crossing orbits. Duh, that's what that bit means |

| 06:43 | | * mac confused |
| 06:44 | <~Vornotron> | I'm doing some orbital mechanics |

| 06:44 | <~Vornotron> | Oh |
| 06:44 | <@mac> | http works just fine. |
| 06:44 | <@mac> | As does my established SSL-secured connection to IRC. |
| 06:45 | | * mac wonders if something is blocking all outgoing connections to the HTTPS port. |
| 06:45 | | * mac wonders hw to test that |
| 06:50 | <@mac> | Hrm. Works fine in Chrome. So it's just FF that's doing this. |

| 21:46 | <&McMartin> | Congrats, tablet was installing drivers on your system |
| 21:47 | <@ErikMesoy> | I can't help thinking the message is somewhat uninformative on that point. |
| 22:01 | <@ErikMesoy> | <downloads 19th century book on the British Caribbean> "You may also like: this novelization spinoff of a video game you never played" |
| 22:01 | <&McMartin> | AC4:BF or something more fun? |
| 22:01 | <@ErikMesoy> | Dishonored. |
| 22:02 | <@ErikMesoy> | I imagine the underlying network is doing some reeeeally wild guesswork based on a) sample size 1, b) that sample is a very rare book, and it's not allowed to say "Insufficient data for meaningful answer" or anything of the sort. |
| 22:03 | <@TheWatcher> | I do note that Dishonored is a good game, though~ |
| 22:03 | <@TheWatcher> | Definitely worth playing. |
| 22:04 | <&McMartin> | AC4:BF isn't *bad* but it went on too long. |
| 22:05 | <@ErikMesoy> | I wonder if it's worth hoping for a future generation of inference network designers (this does not deserve the title of "AI") to put in a lot more conditions for saying I Dunno, Man rather than making the most tenuous connections. |
| 22:07 | <@ErikMesoy> | Out of morbid curiosity I clicked for more suggestions and now it's also suggesting I might like some unknown bodice-ripper, some unknown fantasy novel, some Game of Thrones novel, and Ready Player One. |
| 22:08 | <@ErikMesoy> | If it didn't have the bodice-ripper I might at least think it was homing in on some kind of general nerd cluster. |
