Why are you guys not saving often and using auto-save? It keeps like three recent saves. It's amazing.

Fucking Jetstar.

Get an email today while in Matsumoto telling me they've changed our flight on the 23rd from Osaka->Gold Coast->Melbourne to one on the 24th from Osaka->Taipei->Singapore->Darwin->Melbourne.

What. The. Fuck.

Why they couldn't have changed it to Osaka->Cairns->Melbourne on the 23rd like I did (after calling three times, as their system hung up on me) is beyond me.

So it's looking like the best option is to do board games with lunch on the 18th with Holy and dinner/drinks with shanshan on one of the nights the following week... Unless shan extends her stay and we combine everything :p.

Original flight arrived Melbourne 24th 1pm-ish. Auto allocated one on 25th 5pm-ish. New one (awaiting confirmation so who the hell knows) arrives 24th 2pm-ish.

Wife returns to work 25th, me 29th. Was hoping to make the beer showcase on Thurs but apparently already sold out.

Had alright experiences flying to Hobart and Singapore (both from Melbourne) so coupled with the cheap prices to Japan (1500 return for two) figured it'd be OK. Going to be pretty wary in the future.

No explanation why the scheduled flight (in 11 days!) from Gold Coast to Melbourne was cancelled, either.

The thing with Jetstar international is you have to collect/check your bags for EACH FLIGHT so it'd be hard to lose them. Each of those auto-allocated flights had a 3 or so hour layover too.

Luckily (I hope! Awaiting confirmation) it's only two flights after I called to fix it up. They were even nice enough not to charge me for fixing our fucked up flights. They're so generous!

Actually, the in-flight staff were really nice getting here, much nicer than Qantas IME. Just their policy and customer service is atrocious.

Unrelated, I picked up a VMD (video disc, kinda like laserdisc) of Back to the Future today! This old bookshop (one of those disorganised floor to ceiling and stacks of stuff in the aisles type places) in Matsumoto had 5 items for ¥100 and the guy insisted I take the full 5 items, but it was all shit. I picked up a West Side Story LP that was so warped I think it'll crack in my backpack. The guy was really annoyed I only took two things for ¥100 but he'll get over it.

After playing twice on Classic Ironman I've had enough of the bullshit hit percentages where you can miss three 70% shots in a row, but hey, you're likely to get that 30% shot and so are the aliens while you are behind full cover!

The runs where you have no injuries/deaths are so satisfying but you're likely going to be fucked the very next mission and it's so difficult to keep the base in check on classic unless I intend to look up strategies or something. For now I've just started a new game in normal ironman and it seems like it might be a bit too easy, but we'll see. Maybe I'll try classic again after I finish it.

Haha. This reminds me of a conversation on Idle Thumbs where they talked about some games (I think it was Civ?) automatically skewing probability in favour of the player because human beings don't understand how probability actually works and get frustrated. It's interesting that a game by the same developer doesn't appear to do this. I'd suppose difficulty level might be a factor.

sooo
pretty sure i want to try a cross nation photo scavenger hunt thing
basically theres a list of things to find
you go and find them and take a photo of it
each thing gets points based on difficulty
person with most points by the end wins

may not actually win a prize
whos interested

i should say, by cross nation i just mean everyone can play

This interests me. Which part did you find hard?
Click to expand...

Positioning, mostly.

Each object, save for one or two, are composites of a geometry. So, the human model, is about 14 objects, with a base object and then children added to that base object (or to other children). When an object is parented to another, its positioning changes from being relative to the entire world, to being relative to its parent.

So the hard part, well, one of the hard parts, was working out proper distances between objects with and without the same parentage. And, at that, when you move one part of an object, you have to make sure every child of that object moves with it. So if I wanted to make the guy stand up, I'd have to work out where to move the torso. I'd then need to work out where to move the legs and arms in conjunction to the torso moving in order for it to look remotely decent.

It's hard to explain. Um, here's an example. Here is all the logic that goes into making the human sit down.

Code: 
void humanoid::sitPose()
{
	upperTorso->setRotation('x', 20);
	torso->setRotation('x', -10);
	head->setRotation('x', -10);

	upperLegL->setPostTranslation(upperLegL->getPostTranslation().data[0], -1.0, 1.8);
	upperLegL->setRotation('x', -105);
	lowerLegL->setRotation('x', 80);
	lowerLegL->setPostTranslation(0, -1.2, -1.2);

	upperLegR->setPostTranslation(1, -1.0, 1.8);
	upperLegR->setRotation('x', -105, 'y', 20);
	lowerLegR->setRotation('x', 80);
	lowerLegR->setPostTranslation(0, -1.2, -1.2);

	upperArmL->setRotation('x', -60);
	upperArmL->setPostTranslation(-1.6, -0.4, 1);
	lowerArmL->setRotation('x', -60, 'y', 40);
	lowerArmL->setPostTranslation(0.6, -1.4, 0.5);

	upperArmR->setRotation('x', -60, 'y', 30);
	upperArmR->setPostTranslation(1.6, -0.2, 0.5);
	lowerArmR->setRotation('x', -60, 'y', -60);
	lowerArmR->setPostTranslation(-0.6, -1.4, 0.1);
}

So, it's not complex mathematics or anything. It's just... change a value, compile, look, animate, quit. Rinse repeat for every single fucking limb that needs to be changed. And, if you noticed, that function doesn't even -animate-. Because if I wanted to animate I'd need to calculate the speeds that objects needed to interpolate.

So, the short answer is, it was hard because it was tedious and required a lot of tinkering with a lot of moving parts to do things that should be simple.
