[05:00] these people keep submitting (and killing) so many things that a bunch of warriors are getting aged off :\ [05:01] also, i'm interested in this Purple Death 2.4 now [05:01] 95% wins vs the thing i was working on (!)

[13:07] MSG: Quit: DSOrganize IRC [13:23] has anyone an idea how to shorten that? dstart spl #-1,<-2 [13:23] mov.i *pointer, dat.f #-1,<-9 [13:23] pointer dat.f #-3,<-3 [13:25] Altair: cant be shortened [13:25] unless you use some already-used instruction as a pointer [13:26] thx. is a mistake in it anyway :D dstart spl #-1,<-3, not <-2 [13:27] <-5 would be better [13:27] imp gate, huh?

[16:28] Join: Davse_Bam joined #corewars [16:40] I've nearly started writing a code generator for the GPU [16:41] haven't decided if I'm porting one of the others or starting a new one [16:50] op meh? [16:50] hey Mizcu, i wrote a self-healing version of bolo [16:50] :> [16:50] three variants actually [16:50] it's neat to watch [16:59] woops bugs? [17:00] i'll try the other one [17:10] didn't work too good ;P [17:10] perhaps spawning the lame paper when it gets damaged is better after all [17:10] the one is still 8 processes and 8 instructions in core [17:10] I'm working on something new, new kind of scanner with two processes (which might eventually be airbagged) [17:11] but it scores way poorer except vs certain opponents [17:13] i should play with it some more i guess, i just rushed it some [17:13] i guess it doesn't need to be like bolo at all, since i killed the interdependent part [17:13] m [17:13] hm* [17:19] yoR: what's the advantage to having two separate scanners? [17:19] (besides being able to airbag it) [17:19] i guess you could avoid self scanning somewhat too [17:19] Less vulnarable to one single bomb [17:19] Most scanners, hit by one single dat, die.. [17:19] Which isn't a good thing :) [17:19] ah [17:20] Join: CoreOld joined #corewars [17:20] self scanning........you could just use an synchronized On Axis scan? [17:22] mm.......no , sry, bad idea [17:23] i just meant since he'd have two scanners [17:23] if he chooses the step right he will be invisible to himself [17:23] like a mirror except it's running code [17:24] Btw, I never said I was making two scanners [17:24] I only said, A scanner with two processes ;-) [17:24] er, reflections [17:24] yeah, i caught that [17:24] but i made the easy assumption :P [17:24] yeah, the problem of two scanners would be, that values change if one bombs and the other dont [17:24] @_@doesnt [17:24] the airbag implied separate code hunks [17:25] Altair, you're right there, thats the tricky bit if you make two seperate scanners [17:26] yeah. and what are you planning to do? [17:27] A bombing part and a scanning part [17:27] Both with a process, both able to survive (maybe) [17:27] so kinda like a scan-directed clear [17:28] well. but with tweo processes, you could write a stone anyway? cause the speed isnt that fast anymore [17:29] No idea, there is a lot possible, thats what I want to find out [17:29] And maybe its not effective, I want to write it anyway :) [17:29] ^_^ [17:29] good luck [17:30] how come none of the fun stuff is effective >:( [17:30] yeah ._. [17:34] i wonder what the hell went wrong with re-bolo [17:34] i don't have time for debugging atm :( [17:34] it's probably just carrying damage around [18:04] Join: evenant joined #corewars [18:04] MSG: Read error: Connection reset by peer [18:12] hey guys, is there any text editor out there with recode syntax highlighting? [18:12] what the hell would you highlight? [18:13] i don't know...easier reading of a bigger warriors, maybe [18:15] lol [18:15] www.jedit.org [18:15] i just don't know what good it would do [18:15] i mean, there's nothing to tell apart [18:18] textmate :-) [18:18] or i guess that textmate can do redcode [18:18] scite could do it [18:18] but i don't think anyone wrote a file for it [18:19] hmm nope.. textmate cannot [18:19] but some compiler with assemler syntax could do it? [18:20] like i said.. scite is a great program, just go download that [18:20] take and modify something, it probably has definitions for some sort of asm [18:21] Nick Change: evenant changed nick to nescience [18:22] I added redcode syntax highlighting to Notepad2, but I thought there is a better one.. [18:26] i wonder why it is that all the programs that try to make themselves "a better notepad" completely miss the point? [18:26] they end up being more like MS Word [18:29] probably you need gvim or notepad++ [18:50] I wrote a highlighter for notepad++ [18:51] pretty sure I don't have it anymore, but it was stupid easy [19:08] emacs :) [19:12] ahh i forgot about emacs :-) [19:19] MSG: Quit: Read error: Connection reset by peer [19:33] MSG: Quit: Leaving [19:33] Join: sh0ne joined #corewars [20:03] MSG: Quit: Leaving [20:14] Join: sh0ne joined #corewars [20:33] MSG: Quit: Trillian (http://www.ceruleanstudios.com [20:36] Join: sh0ne_ joined #corewars [20:37] MSG: Ping timeout: 240 seconds [20:40] MSG: Read error: Connection reset by peer [20:51] MSG: [23:26] MSG: Quit: humhum [23:40] MSG:
