especially combined with time spent on silkroad/rakion instead of coding

hey now... ^^'

I played Rakion a whopping amount of 2 hours in the last 7 days. The reason SilkRoad-online time is always two-digit (currently last 7 days: 31 hours) is because I get up in the morning, log in, open my stall and let my char sell stuff while I am in sk00l. Sometimes it crashes while I am afk. I have 32 hours o' school a week, and about 3~5h of the displayed time I am actually playing. The rest is afk and selling (school, sleeping), semi-afk  and buying/selling (SRO in background most of the time, writing homework, chatting, etc.). Heck, I've been stuck at lvl 40 now for weeks.
In fact, today I haven't even brushed the SilkRoad icon on my desktop.
So...to sum it all up: I'm not as retarded and addicted as my online stats may let you think.  :alien: period.





btw: w00t posts in the battlemasters subforum!!!!!

aaaah rofl i see now, I tend to do that with starcraft (game opened and idle on battlenet), I was sure you were playing silkroad all that time

[Spellshaper]

long time no post in here ^^

as promised, I will take up the project again!
ok, I scrolled through my BM code and (once again) realized how unoptimised the code is, how much could be stored in prgms containing lists pointing to the coordinates for menus etc.

conclusions:
- battle engine will stay kinda like it is (as it is newer and more opimised
- I have to do something about the standard menus
which means that:
- new project started: xCM (xLib Custom Menu) for less consumed memory
- I will sift through my code and dig up my old programming logs... '

btw: schools almost over, so I will have to get a TI of my own. Suggestions? ^^ 84+ or 83+SE etc...
Whenever anything indicates that I am getting distracted, feel free to sue me ^^'

/edit: new feline avatar! bow to the cat. :knight:

[DJ Omnimaga]

nice to see new progress on this! I'm glad this is not dead

Will the custom menu thing be another program release ?

Also I suggest a Ti-84+

[Spellshaper]

Yeah. Another side project to make programming BM easier faster and to de-clutter the code. Kinda weird. I wanted BM to become a big stand-alone project, yet I keep getting distracted by ideas on how to improve the memory mangement and size with selfmade plugins
Ah well. At least I am contributing soemthing to the community... I guess.

Ti84+? A Ti84+ is is... gotta look up prices to find a cheap one...

[Halifax]

Yeah I would go with the TI84SE for the most memory and everything and speed. I think that is the best calculator.

[Liazon]

Agreed.  Ti83+SE is a close second.

[Speler]

84+ is cheaper however.

[Harrierfalcon]

Only because the 83+SE is not being sold anymore.

 Really? Then explain why I got an 83+SE this January on Amazon for ~$80.

[dinhotheone]

harrier ment its not being made.
i can guarantee you the one you bought wasnt made recently, it was only sold recently.
