So in conclusion, LEGOs and Windows are awesome for their flexibility.

[dwarfguy2]

and macs suck for lack of games.

Lego Computer: Holy shit, my computer keeps beaking apart.

How's progress, Orange?

[Outcast Orange]

Progress was amazing today!

I redid water physics again!
The water acts a ton more natural when spread thin,
 and the game runs like 20% faster too.
I made the code super flexible, so now I can add in new liquids fairly easily.
Eventually, if this thing gets RAWS and tags,
 liquid and liquid interactions will be perfect.

---------------------------------------

I applied the new liquid physics to lava,
 then did some more work with cooling and spreading rate.
I finally added the interaction where water + lava = crust + steam.
 Lava crusts over without water, but it takes longer, and rain is always imminent.
I'm going to put a ton of it underground,
 then hope it doesn't kill the speed too badly.

---------------------------------------

Besides that I am considering switching focus to AI.
The first thing I will probably do
 is give the creatures the ability to remember each other,
 and be able to pack up.

Maybe not.
I still need to work on those crazy land features too.
Ugh... so many things, so many directions.

Screw it, I'm getting this ported to my computer right now,
 finishing up lava, and adding in the next 5 bizarre land things that come to mind.

EDIT:

I think my hatred of macs is cooling down.
I've sort of realized that my support of Microsoft is barely legitimate,
 and that Macs can just be semi-ignored.

Awesome.

[Alexhans]

There's been some improvements in the ogg area.  I've built almost everything and understand most of the problems I had.  I still have some issues I'm confident I'll be able to tackle them tomorrow.  The thing is, I just came back home today and I've been pretty busy at work (wav manipulation, and maybe FLAC is all I really need there).

I'll make myself some time tomorrow and solve this once and for all. 

Ok... Gotta go now.

[dwarfguy2]

seriously, port it to mac.

[Outcast Orange]

seriously, port it to mac.

Porting something to Mac seems sort of complicated.

It isn't that time consuming of a game,
 so you could probably get it working at a local library or resource center,
 and play it there every now and then.

Think outside the box.
Don't ask me to go out of my way to figure out
 how to support something I don't like.
You are a casualty of your parent's bad taste.

Besides, it is part of having a mac.
 you sort of have to accept that most games aren't going to work on it.

[dwarfguy2]

i suppose i could play on my lil bro's computer, that hasn't been macified yet. does this game have a chat feature?

[Outcast Orange]

What are you talking about?
This game doesn't even have a HUD yet!

I think you are going to be disappointed when you finally get to try this...

[eerr]

IRC plugin time!

[timmeh]

Porting programs between operating systems can be a real pain, since a lot of things can be different, or entirely incompatible...

On another semi-on-topic note:
Progress, n., To develop in a positive way.

Spoiler: The Beginning (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Now (click to show/hide)

"Soon to be huge." - No kidding

[EDIT]:

IRC plugin time!

It's not even multi-player (yet? ever? maybe? )...........

[Alexhans]

Meh..: I haven't finished what I'm supposed to be doing (work, not vorbis :/) and I keep procrastinating...

But I need to add...

Don't rush the game...  Let it run it's course. 

Why are you trying to force him to a multiplayer when it hasn't even defined yet a single player style?   Let it grow at it's natural pace.  Orange has been consistent enough. 

Consistency is, in my opinion, one of the most admirable traits of this game and his creator.  Harder to pull off than anything else.

Amen.

[Hippoman]

seriously, port it to mac.

People use that crap?
