Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 No, I'm at the HEAD revision, it's just personal preference, I guess. Back from when I edited scripts on the Wii's Internet browser (just trust me when I say it sucks), and you had to move line-by-line down a file, that semicolon you forgot on line 5,726 becomes a much larger pain in the behind. I guess to me it seems like better practice to separate all your functions into files containing similar functions and constants and such. Have one source file for your sounds, one for handling the party data, and so on. Is there a practical consideration? Does the compiler get bogged down with too many files? Will the resulting executable be giganticker than need be? Am I just completely missing something here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have one source file for your sounds, one for handling the party data, and so on. This is basically what is already done, it's just that how one defines the categories is often subjective, and there may just be a lot of code for a given subunit of the program. Quote: Is there a practical consideration? Does the compiler get bogged down with too many files? Will the resulting executable be giganticker than need be? Am I just completely missing something here? It depends on details. Assuming that we're talking about a C or C++ compiler here (since that's what's relevant to the codebase in question) having many, many little header files will slow it down, although only a little bit, since the way the preprocessor handles #include is basically to go find the indicated file and paste it in. Once this is finished happening, though, the resulting file will be almost the same regardless of how you had it divided up originally. (The only difference I can think of would be in the little indicators that the compiler leaves for itself to say which bits originally came from which file.) In general, having many small implementation files is considered good, since each implementation file is sort of the nucleus of a 'translation unit', the actual unit of stuff which gets compiled. (One translation unit = one implementation file + all the header files it includes.) Since each translation unit is compiled alone (and the results of all of these separate compilations are then linked), a smart build system looks at which files were changed and recompiles only the affected translation units. This means that if you change something in one implementation file, the compiler only needs to be run over that file, plus the included header files. There are limits to how much splitting up implementation files helps, however. One thing to consider is that if you change a header which is used in multiple translation units, you end up having to recompile all of those translation units. Another point is that the code in a give implementation file is usually dwarfed by the amount of code in the headers it includes; it's easy to write a few line C++ program which turns into over a hundred thousand lines when run through the preprocessor. This is one of the main reasons that C++ programs are known for being slow to compile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Karoka Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I've noticed that if two nodes are played at once, the second one won't be played. For example, a timer is set to hit a space, and a monster just happens to be on that space. That monster just happened to have a special node connected to it, and the hit space kills it. Since the timer node was already playing, the second node will be ignored, causing whatever important thing to happen, not happen. Makes sense?

Rotghroth Rhapsody Prince of Kitties Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Hmm. Not sure if anyone has reported this yet, but: if the Scenario Editor doesn't have write permissions on a scenario you're trying to save, it crashes with a message about "Error 101." Kind of minor issue as lack of write permissions isn't likely to occur, but it would be good for error messages to be more descriptive, e.g. "Error: unable to write to the scenario file."

Rotghroth Rhapsody Prince of Kitties Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 And another - the Scenario Editor seems to max out CPU when editing town terrain. That is in Wine (1.3.16) though, so I'm not sure if it's an Editor bug or a Wine bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall Niemand Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 You're on Linux, I assume (since otherwise you wouldn't be using Wine)?

Rotghroth Rhapsody Prince of Kitties Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Yeah, I'm using Debian Squeeze. I took a look at OProfile... To be blunt it was quite opaque to me. Alas, I'm a CS student, not a programming wiz. I figured I might be able to spot something with winedbg if I'm lucky, but I'm having trouble getting it to attach to the right process. If I tell it to start the Scenario Editor, it starts the game instead; if I start the scenario editor and then tell it to attach to that, it says it can't attach (error 87). I do wonder if this is a Wine problem now... Seems odd that it would go unnoticed on Windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I noticed once that if I held down the 5 key (skip turn or wait or whatever) while in combat mode, the game would hold at about 30% processor usage (~600 MHz on that machine). Also, it would ocassionally freeze for a couple seconds when saving a scenario to my slow-ass flash drive. Other than that, I personally have never noticed any performance things on my windows machine.

Rotghroth Rhapsody Tonweya Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Just my opinion, but... I don't feel that BoE, or any of the Exile Games, were meant to incorporate Mega-Everything. I'm not attempting to discourage any of the ideas posted here, but feel that if Players want to create Scenarios that reflect these characteristics, then there should be an additional Rating Designation that would indicate to the potential Player what these Characteristics are. Perhaps a Rating similar to the standard "G", "PG", "R", or "X" ratings, and/or an addition to the "Easy", "Hard", etc. ratings would suffice. Although I did play and enjoy the Scenario, "doommoon.zip", some time ago, I felt that it departed from the traditional style of the Exile Games significantly and would probably have placed it well down on my "To Do" list had I realized what would occur in the Story-Line.

If every scenario followed the "traditional style of the Exile games", it would become boring or monotonous or something after awhile. As for the features thing? BoE certainly isn't going to incorporate "Mega-Everything"; with the exception of fixing things that seem to be bugs, the core mechanics are not going to be changed, so anything that can't fit in with the core mechanics probably won't be added, but in the current version designers are quite limited with the options in what can be done. Many of the additions simply involve exposing internal game features to the designer, or doing it in a more open way; others are bringing back feature from the earlier games.

Kyshakk Koan Mistb0rn Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I have another question; (probably already been asked somewhere, but I don't know how to find it,) Are there any plans for allowing you to copy/paste sections of towns?

Kyshakk Koan Karoka Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 'Import Town' in the Scenario tab (between File and Town) copies any town from any scenario you have in the folder, and pastes it onto the one that's currently loaded.

Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 "Drain Missiles" has you use two charges instead of one when you shoot; in other words, if you have a stack of ten arrows and equip a bow with "Drain Missiles" ability, you actually have five shots.

Rotghroth Rhapsody Tonweya Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 As Mystic said, Draining Weapons or Ammunition use up extra Ammunition.

Rotghroth Rhapsody Tonweya Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I stand corrected. Because I don't trust "memory" or "think", especially at this age, I looked up abilities in the documentation. Soulsucker: When it hits, the Wielder is healed. Regardless of what the Author calls the Weapon, they can set the Weapon's Ability Strength on a scale of 1 to 10 above and beyond its Level, Awkwardness, Bonus, etc. Therefore, each time the Party Member hits the opponent, they are healed to the degree of the Weapon's Ability. me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyshakk Koan Karoka Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Could a monster have an 'infinite' amount of health? Meaning, that you can attack that monster all day, but it will never die. Invulnerability doesn't do this. It gives a monster super armor and regenerate all its health immediately, just as long it doesn't die in a single hit. Also, could it be resistant/immune to attacks just like it could be with fire, cold, magic, and poison? You can kill a monster with magic, but melee and archery have no effect. If it's immune, it'll show just a blood splat; no number, because there is no damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotghroth Rhapsody Tonweya Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 I hate to ask about modifications, especially after all the greatly appreciated work you guys, (?), have already done with this system, but... When clicking on the "Load Game" tab with the Original BoE Program, you went directly to the list of "Saved Games". When clicking on the "Load Game" tab with the Updated BoE Program, I have to search back through the "Tree" to find the list of "Saved Games" in the "Scenarios" branch. Is this just something askew with my system, or is it something that can be modified in the Updated Program? And a second question... One of the Editing Options is, "Has enough statistic?" which allows you to specify the amount of and the specific type of Statistic. The Option says you should check the Docs for the list of Statistics. I've looked through the "Docs" numerous times trying to find the listing of these Statistics, but can't seem to find it anywhere.

Understated Ur-Drakon Celtic Minstrel Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 First question: That's something that can be fixed. I have no idea how to do it on Windows; I believe the Mac version does it automatically, but of course it's not currently stable. Second question: I know there's a list somewhere, but I'm not exactly sure where. Most likely in the appendices.

Second answer: Again, thanks. I've read and re-read the docs that come with the game and just haven't been able to find a list of "Statistics", or even an indication to them. In my "Hobby" I have to search a Scenario in reverse by starting with an event and then reading back through the Nodes. When I see a number for "Statistic" I've been trying to deduce what it might be. From what you just said, I'd presume the same. Attributes are specifically named.

Rotghroth Rhapsody Tonweya Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 You're right... I just wasn't looking in the right place. The Node, "Has enough Statistic?" is under the "If - Then" gouping and when it said to check the "docs" I went straight to the listings at the end of the Documents where the Alchemy, Mage Spells, Priest Spells, etc. are located. Following your direction, I looked at all six groupings and in the "Affect PC's" group I found "Affect Statistic" and in the Documentation it lists 18 stats. * "Affect Statistic" is Type 98 in the Documentation. I was afraid that I had a corrupted file, but it was just me. FWIW: I checked both the Original and the Classic. The Classic has both the "Affect Statistic" in the "Affect PC's" grouping and "Has enough Statistic?" in the "If - Then" grouping. The Original has only "Affect Statistic" in the Affect PC's grouping. So, as you said, the "Has enough Statistic?" must have been added during the upgrade.

Rotghroth Rhapsody Tonweya Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I can only speak from my point of view, but... In the Editor Mode, the drop-down menu for the 'Scenario' group gives one the ability to list: Data, Text, Shopping, Monster, Specials and Object groups; lists that I find extremely important and thank you all for creating. At present, I can make a list of all the 'Specials' and then find, (alt + E, alt + F), by identifying the specific Flag I'm looking for to know all the locations in the Scenario and what it does at each location. I then have to figure out why that Flag is in a particular state to know why it is, or is not, doing a particular function. Basically, I'm doing the same thing the Author has to do when writing a Scenario. 99% of the time, I simply haven't done something, but have learned the long way around what I need to do. I believe that what Karoka is asking is that if a Player knows what Flag is supposed to be in what State, then some sort of "In-Game" Viewer to display a Flag's present state, might be "Handy". However, one would need to already know what that state should be and in retrospect, I don't know if this would be worth the effort, other than gaining the sense of accomplishing it.

Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I think it might be cool to have a flowchart-looking thing, similar to this layout, that could show how long node trees, especially those if/then ones, work without having to click eighty billion things and be confused. Maybe it could even be used to pass arguments to nodes; this would be really useful once text-manipulation gets worked on some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Prince of Kitties Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Yes, that would be cool... Or something purely text based even. For instance: Code: 112 Has item? no --> 113 Display message yes | v145 Has special item? no --> 146 Display message yes | v147 Create monster More detailed would obviously be better, but anything that displayed node chains would be an improvement, I think.
