Development Deliberation / Jam segfaulting.
« on: February 02, 2005, 10:28:40 am »
Jam segfaults trying to compile Planeshift. The gdb backtrace of the crash was excessively long (Well over 10,000 calls deep, I had passed 12,000 by the time I gave up on reaching the end).

I\'ve submitted a bug-report about it, but does anybody know of a good way around it?

Development Deliberation / Familiarizing myself with the code.
« on: January 16, 2005, 12:40:34 pm »
Any tips, references, or the like you guys may have to offer me.

I\'m planning on familiarizing myself with the Planeshift code, and hopefully making a few contributions myself (time available will influence this).

PvP,PK and Thieving / Non-fatal PvP (Brawling)
« on: January 16, 2005, 12:35:48 am »
Basically, brawling is a no-weapons fist fight where the loser is knocked unconscious for a short timespan (5-10 seconds max) but otherwise suffers no harm. After a brawl is finished, those two players cannot brawl for maybe 1-2 minutes to prevent griefing.

Brawling wouldn\'t be permitted everywhere (eg, not in city square). Only in localised areas such as inns and taverns. Given that some races, ie Dwarves, have strong pride that is known to get them into fights, it will simply allow this aspect to be role-played. No theft of items or other harm comes to the loser of the fight, just a few seconds unconscious before he goes to the bar and orders another drink.

Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) / Linkdead
« on: January 16, 2005, 12:17:47 am »
Got the following message:

You are linkdead (If you actually receive this message please report it)


So, I\'m reporting it. I\'m sharing the net connection with two heavy downloaders at the moment (at a mates place), ping was ranging 1200-3000 and the link-dead was followed by a connection drowned out to the extent that DNS queries could not resolve until we made them throttle it.

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Getting involved
« on: September 23, 2002, 09:19:38 pm »
How might I go about getting involved as a developer?

I may soon have a fair amount of free time and I would like to help out. I am a moderately skilled C/C++ programmer and I have limited skill in the map and model-making department.

Basically want to start with simple coding tasks (eg. synchronising the walk animation to walking speed), and work my way up.
