World: r3wp

its supposed to :P

thats to let you know what gesture you are doing :)

ah :-)

i'm going to add gesture control to all my new games where its releveant 
because its so much fun ;)

ive got a new version now with the dots connected - uploading now 
:)

re using RebTower in Linux - until next version please change fonts 
in rebtower.r and builder.r from verdana/tahoma to something similar. 
 Then run builder.r again to rebuild cards and you should be fine 
:)

in next version I will add OS detection and substitute correct fonts 
- it is a little harder under linux though as fonts arent very standard 
:(

unfortunately I cannot test in Ubuntu Linux as im using the 64bit 
version :(

note, it is possible to install verdana etc. in linux very easily.

ICarii: Rebtower is eating 100% CPU while waiting for player's actions 
(WinXP). Is this a time-limit game feature : beat your opponent before 
your CPU melts ? ;-)

lol - ill throw a few wait 0 in :)

im running dual core here so never noticed ;)

wait 0.001 fixes it nicely :)  will update now

cool ! :-)

updated now :)

The fix is working well. Time to wipe out that tower masking my view 
of the mountains ! ;-)

We need an online version so I can kick Doc's butt.

Heh - its definitely doable - ive got a quiet weekend coming up - 
ill look into it :)

Coming Soon ;-)  http://rebol.mustard.co.nz/rebtower-ne-lobby.png

Thanks, I'm getting tired to beat the hell out of your IA : http://softinnov.org/tmp/warmup.gif
;-)

lol

Btw, when the tower exceeds 100, it becomes difficult to see how 
rich I am...:-) Maybe limiting the high of the walls and tower would 
be good ?

yes - i meant to do that but never got round to it :)

i will lock tower and wall at 100 and stockpile resources at 999 
in next release - once i've got the lobby completed :)

very nice Doc! :)

Thanks! :)

captchas: very very cool!  thanks

what i don't understand is the claim that captchas don't require 
View. Current 2.6.2 core (linux and windows) don't have the draw 
function !

I've been using the captcha for a month now, and I'm only using core.

save/png img: make binary! 25000 draw 300x120 [box 10x10]

does this line work on your core version ? I just tried in 2.6.2.3.1 
and it fails

** Script Error: draw has no value
** Near: save/png img: make binary! 25000

works for me on rebcmd

>> rebol/version
== 2.6.2.3.1

Component: "Graphics" 1.3.0 (29-Nov-2005/22:18:54)
Component: "Draw System" 1.1.0 (3-Aug-2005/20:40:36)

Joe, AFAIK, core has no graphics functions

Perhaps you need rebol/command

rebol/command core seems to work

rebpro doesn't

Core has image! support, but I don't think DRAW is in there.

By the way, Joe, that should be better written:
save/png %file.png img: draw make image! 300x120 [box 10x10]

I'm wrong, I'm sorry.

Nothing wrong with what you have written.

apparently the newer rebcmd has draw, but both my linux and win versions 
don't have it. I will ask for updated versions. BTW, what is the 
latest linux rebcmd version that you have ?

No need to ask, just download them from here : http://www.rebol.net/builds/

Thanks. BTW, I checked the latest rebcmd for win and linux (2.5.125) 
and it does not include the draw function. The latest builds are 
only in the sdk (directory builds/sdk/ ) and those rebcmd there  
provide the draw function. thanks

Nice Oldes

Oldes; Nice.  So now the cheerleading is   Go Doc, Ashley, Oldes 
Go!

(for the major sub-systems I'm using).  For the rest ... don't feel 
leftout  Go rebols Go!  :)

Oldes - gif parser, cool. Never used stream-io. Hopefully DELECT 
will help with binary parser, Rebcode is still part of R3, and that 
we can start implementing media loaders/savers :-)

DELECT is not used for binary parsing, but anyway, I would like to 
see any improvements in binary parsing in R3
