04:14 <Cepheid> https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16817994215 Sweet geebas,

04:25 <Ali> Cepheid, is that a raid setup rig or something?

04:26 <Cepheid> Designed for that, yeah.

04:26 <Cepheid> It's a 2x5.25" inch drive bay device that allows you to slot in up to 16 SAS drives.

04:26 <Cepheid> Alas, SAS is freakin' expensive.

04:27 <Cepheid> So I'd probably go with a smaller setup, like 4 or 8 drive.

04:27 <Ali> I see, well I hope we can launch a rocket eventually in Factorio.  It shouldn't be too hard but got overwhelmed

04:28 <Cepheid> Well, today's my exam, so after that..

04:28 <Cepheid> Yeah.

04:28 <Cepheid> I'll be home late though.  Gonna celebrate end of semester with food.

07:43 <Cepheid> Hmm.

07:46 <Cepheid> Factorio API isn't specific as to what entities are considered acceptable as drivers.

07:47 <Cepheid> set_driver(entity) just has the documentation:  "driver :: LuaEntity or LuaPlayer : the new passenger or nil to eject the current driver if any."

07:48 <Cepheid> LuaEntity covers a lot of things, though.  Pretty much anything you can build, attack, or get into, etc.

07:49 <Cepheid> And then when I try to use it on a supposed LuaEntity..

07:49 <Cepheid> "Only character entities can enter vehicles."

07:50 <Cepheid> That's... not helpful, game.

07:50 <Cepheid> Someone needs to do a decompile of this game to figure out what the flags are for all the various entity "types".

07:51 <Ali> Mucking about in god mode again?

07:52 <Cepheid> Yes.

07:52 <Cepheid> I figured out how to make trains accelerate, decelerate and turn.

07:52 <Cepheid> But it requires a hack.

07:52 * Finwe hats on Ali.

07:52 <Cepheid> Basically, it requires a driver to be in the seat.

07:53 <Cepheid> Problem is, the only thing that can drive trains are these "character entities"

07:53 <Cepheid> Of which there's no list of such entities.  The only entity I am aware of right now is the "player" entity, which has a type of "player".

07:55 <ConfusionRift> Hmm...

07:56 <ConfusionRift> It sounds like it looks for something aside from the player, or might be a variable somewhere.

07:59 <Cepheid> I'd need to examine the game's internal structure to figure that out.

07:59 <Cepheid> Alternatively..

07:59 <Cepheid> Write a script that goes through every potential entity in the game, and attempts to shove it into a train.

08:00 <Cepheid> Alas, I'm not sure that'd work.  o3o

08:00 <Cepheid> Because there doesn't seem to be a return value from set_driver()

08:01 <ConfusionRift> That, or maybe have something that would check if a variable changed of state or value on the point when you get in a train with the normal player.

08:01 <Cepheid> Nope, no return value.  Although I guess I could check via get_driver().

08:01 <Cepheid> If get_driver() returns nil, the entity wasn't shoved in.

08:02 <Cepheid> Further research in the documentation implies that it's only type "player" that can enter vehicles.

08:02 <Cepheid> That means the whole train driving system that's used ingame is internal to the engine.

08:03 <Cepheid> That, or it has an internal fake "driver" it uses.

08:03 *** Quits: Reia_Hope (Reia_Hope@TheCowPony) (Connection closed)

08:05 <ConfusionRift> But there are train mods out there. No rail mods, but rather train mods. So someone did figure how to replicate the train asset, OR it just call the normal train with modified variables.

08:05 <ConfusionRift> Hmmmmm!

08:06 <ConfusionRift> The most roundabout way I can think this would work would be that the game calls a separate entity that is used specifically to take control of the train, a "middleman".

08:07 <Cepheid> Train mods are one thing.  The ones I looked at don't directly control the trains.  They just manipulate the schedule.

08:07 <Cepheid> But that doesn't allow arbitrary pathing.

08:07 * ConfusionRift nods.

08:07 <Cepheid> At least, it won't, because of the way the game is designed.

08:07 <Cepheid> If you CTRL+Click a railway with a train selected, on the map it shows?

08:07 <Cepheid> Train will path to that spot.

08:08 <ConfusionRift> This has got me curious.

08:14 * Cepheid screws around with subgroups.

08:15 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-cvibue.iplsin.sbcglobal.net) (Quit: Leaving)

08:16 <Cepheid> Right, so that did nothing.

08:17 <Cepheid> Very well then.

08:17 <Cepheid> Let's change the type to player.

08:19 * Cepheid creates a second entity tprototype hat duplicates the player entity prototype to toy around with it.

08:20 <Cepheid> Well, I've rooted out "it's based on entity name."

08:21 <Cepheid> ... Oh great.

08:21 <Cepheid> It expects certain keys for the game to accept different entity types.

08:31 <ConfusionRift> Oooh.

08:32 <Cepheid> I'm actually curious as to what all the possible "type" values are.

08:32 <Cepheid> Should all be in the executable.

08:33 <Cepheid> Alternatively, just use the game's scripting function to spam it all out.

08:42 *** Quits: Quill-Swirl (Nyah@Pony-jaks4r.res.rr.com) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

08:43 <Cepheid> Only odd entity I can find is "simple-entity-with-force" and "simple-entity-with-owner"

08:43 <RazorSharpFang> Might be abstractions?

08:56 <Cepheid> Mmm.  Looks like the only thing that can drive a vehicle is an entity of type "player"

08:56 <Cepheid> Anyways, BRB.  I need a coffee.

09:01 <Cepheid> And after that, I need to run off and take a shower.  Get ready for exam, etc.

09:02 <Cepheid> Ready for it.  About the only thing I don't remember exactly are individual minutes still, and the words for individual days of the month.

09:13 <Cepheid> https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?item=9SIAAYY80H9673 Sheesh.

09:15 <ConfusionRift> Hmmmm.

09:16 <Cepheid> Nice for servers, but me... I'd like a 4-slot one, thanks.

09:16 <Cepheid> Four slots, all cheap SSDs or platter drives.  Use 'em as a ZFS raid array.

09:17 <ConfusionRift> The case has two cages for for a total of six drives, so I just used that.

09:17 <ConfusionRift> This would had been nice if I had the other case, but that thing was an oven.

09:18 <Cepheid> For me, the reason for the above is the whole raid-array thing.

09:18 <Cepheid> I'd like to just be able to hot-swap a drive out.

09:19 <Cepheid> Mostly for redundancy and such.  Wouldn't serve as a true backup, as expected of RAID, but it'd certainly help.

09:22 <Cepheid> Anyways, gotta run.  Take a shower.  Back in a bit.

09:22 <Cepheid> Also seek out my cat.  Haven't seen him all night.

09:32 <ConfusionRift> Hmmmm!

09:38 <Cepheid> I suspect he is locked in my mother's closet.

09:39 <Cepheid> He likes to sneak in there when my parents aren't looking.

09:40 <Cepheid> Or not.  Found him.

09:40 <Cepheid> He was downstairs near the window.  Probably sleeping somewhere earlier and just didn't feel like coming upstairs.

09:44 * Cepheid screws around with memory of Factorio to figure out some more interesting stuff.

09:46 <ConfusionRift> I just thought of something. You can still use the train even on sandbox mode. So yeah, I don't think it looks for the player, but rather something else. It would make sense for the keys to be in use, especially since the vehicles seem to change according to the player who uses it.

09:50 <Cepheid> Yeah, you can still do set_driver(game.player), even when there's no character attached to the player...

09:55 <Cepheid> Unfortunately, setting the controller for anything other than a player's not possible.

10:02 * Cepheid gets silly and does something ridiculous.

10:03 <Cepheid> Well that didn't work as expected.  Hum.

10:14 * Cepheid forces the game to generate a region of chunks with 500 radius. This results in Factorio quite literally spazzing.

10:15 <Cepheid> I assume it's working as it's consumed 8GB of RAM.

10:15 <Cepheid> And all cores are busy.

10:16 <ConfusionRift> "Factorio is burning my hexacore CPU!!!"

10:16 <Cepheid> Amazingly no.  Due to what I presume is dependency stuff, each core is barely registering more than 10-12% usage.

10:16 <Cepheid> Except that one.  Which I assume is the main thread.

10:17 <Cepheid> Gonna let it run for a bit, see if it ever finishes.

10:17 <Cepheid> Then chart the entire thing, see what I'm missing.

10:19 <Cepheid> I am going to assume that this is causing page faulting out the wazoo.

10:19 <Cepheid> Apparently it is not.

10:20 <Cepheid> I'm... not sure it's doing anything, actually

10:21 <ConfusionRift> It might be looping somewhere.

10:21 <Cepheid> Let's try that with a smaller radius.  Say, 32.

10:23 <Cepheid> No, it was certainly working.

10:24 <Cepheid> Next up, 128.

10:24 <Cepheid> Right now, the last I charted, 64?

10:25 <Cepheid> More than 8 or 16 times than what was uncovered on the server, height and dimension-wise.

10:25 <Cepheid> And... 128...

10:25 <Cepheid> Well...  Let me take a screenshot.

10:25 <Cepheid> That is, when it finishes charting.

10:27 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/k13rGsV.png

10:27 <Cepheid> Everything within approximately 128 chunks.

10:27 <ConfusionRift> Oh... oh boy.

10:28 <ConfusionRift> Oh, you were like speed charting, outside using the radar?

10:28 <Cepheid> You can force the game to generate chunks within a radius around a position, and then chart all generated chunks for a force.

10:29 <Cepheid> This, of course, takes FOREVER.

10:29 <ConfusionRift> Yep!

10:30 * Cepheid generated a map that had all resources jacked up to max.

10:30 * Cepheid is finding patches of iron with 750m ore.

10:30 <Cepheid> And oil wells with over 100,000% yield.

10:31 * ConfusionRift pukes oil.

10:32 <Cepheid> Ribbon world looks interesting as you go out further and further.

10:33 <Cepheid> I tried generating out to a radius of 1024.  OS did NOT like that.

10:33 <Cepheid> anyways, I'm about to head out, so I'm gonna pack stuff up and run off.  I'll catch you when I get to school or when I get on my phone.

10:33 <RazorSharpFang> Certain operations will make your OS cry

10:34 <ConfusionRift> I might be up a bit longer. Had to take some pills, and have to stay up.

10:37 <ConfusionRift> Borderlands 2 with 64 players... why?!

10:41 <ConfusionRift> It runs, just not as smooth as it should.

10:43 <Cepheid> Heh.

10:43 <Cepheid> Oh my gods.  My dad just did something incredibly stupid.

10:44 <RazorSharpFang> How stupid are we talking?

10:44 <Cepheid> So there were some spiders on the front door.  My mother is an arachnophobe.  I kill the spiders.  My mother asks me to examine the door.  I do so.  Nothing.

10:45 <Cepheid> My mother walks out the door.  My dad reaches from behind and brushes his hand up against her hair.

10:45 <Cepheid> My mother freaks, followed by a "you just done ****ed up" expression on her face.

10:47 <Cepheid> If my dad ends up dead somehow, I'm not going to question it.

10:48 <RazorSharpFang> Ah yes, unseen touches when you're in spider-alert mode.

14:24 <Cepheid> I couldn't remember the form.  How to write it.

14:24 <Cepheid> It eluded my mind.

14:24 <RazorSharpFang> Ah, writing it. I've never written Japanese myself, so I'd forget basically every character.

14:30 <Cepheid> Formal education.  Can't get away with just typing it.

14:31 <RazorSharpFang> Yeah, you couldn't claim to be fully literate if you can't write.

14:32 <Cepheid> Gotta say.  Writing kanji is a paaaaiiiin.

14:32 <RazorSharpFang> Just think about the information density per-character.

15:03 <Cepheid> Hum.  So the parents have decided that if Tizzy is indeed sick, they'll pay the $1400 for the treatment.

15:05 <RazorSharpFang> Oh no, sick kitty??

15:06 <Cepheid> Possibly.  Vet thinks she has a thyroid problem.  Treatable, though.

15:06 <Schism> Myerp.  :<

15:06 <Cepheid> Evidence supporting it is weight loss and muscle loss.

15:07 <Cepheid> She can't jump as well as she used to.

15:07 <Cepheid> In any case it hasn't been determined yet.  She goes to the vet next week for bloodwork.

15:08 <Cepheid> Meanwhile Spitfire is as healthy as ever.  Hates being forced into cat carriers now though.

15:10 <RazorSharpFang> No amount of towels can hold Tizzy?

15:11 <Schism> She is well named.  o3o;

15:13 <Cepheid> Razor, the last time I saw Tizzy get handled by a vet, they walked in and threw a towel on the cat.  The cat immediately turned around, started hissing and growling, and swiping rabidly.

15:14 <Cepheid> For a cat suffering muscle loss, she sure has the claws, strength and fierceness still to kill.

15:14 <RazorSharpFang> Hmm.

15:14 <RazorSharpFang> I'd probably be unable to hold them... without hurting them...

15:16 <Cepheid> Tizzy only dislikes vets.  Normal people she bugs for attention.  Though, I do advise you be careful.  She likes to bite hard as a way of showing annoyance *AND* love.

15:16 <Cepheid> No idea why.

15:17 <Cepheid> But I have more than my fair share of cat bites on my hands because of her.

15:18 <RazorSharpFang> At some point in trying to hold a struggling animal, if they're going full-out, you have two options: Let them go, or risk them great harm.

15:19 <RazorSharpFang> Even if /YOU/ don't hurt them directly, in the struggle they can still get badly hurt.

15:20 <Cepheid> Indeed.

15:20 <Cepheid> Thirsty thirsty thirsty.

15:23 <Schism> Water's back on here.  Not especially potable, though.

15:23 <RazorSharpFang> Is it brown?

15:24 <Cepheid> I just feel thirsty because I am also exhausted as hell.  Awake for 14 hours, then do an exam.  I feel like I've run a marathon.

21:23 <PinkieShy> I don't think my dad would want this old keyboard when i get the new PC

21:23 <DashedRainbows> what type is it?

21:23 <PinkieShy> being this cyberpowerpc keyboard.. is very very dirty.. only way to clean this would be.. remove all keys and clean with Q-tip and some alcohol and get all the dirt under the keys out.

21:23 <DashedRainbows> ah

21:24 <PinkieShy> Mostly all the keys are like dust stained at this point

21:24 <LibrarianofHope> just burn it, thta removes dirt

21:24 <LibrarianofHope> and everythin else

21:25 <DashedRainbows> I apparently type 't' a lot cause it's fading

21:25 <LibrarianofHope> tends to happen

21:25 <LibrarianofHope> buy a keyboard cover, that helps

21:26 * Ali nuzzles Cepheid, hopes their exam went well

21:28 <PinkieShy> I remember the days back when i was in school when they had us in a learn to type class..

21:28 <PinkieShy> They started to put a cover on the keyboard to hide which key you are typing..

21:29 <PinkieShy> since i couldn't type with that on, they made an exception for me.. I can type without looking

21:34 * Ali hated that class

21:35 * DashedRainbows didn't need it, but it was easy enough
