| 04:54 | <@Derakon> | My sprite rotation appears to not be perfect. |
| 04:55 | <@Derakon> | http://derakon.dyndns.org/~chriswei/temp2/rotation.png |
| 04:56 | <@Derakon> | Those two wings are attached at equivalent points to the main chassis, and in fact if I rotate the whole thing 180 degrees then I get the reverse problem. |
| 04:56 | < C_tiger> | How are you rotating? |
| 04:56 | <@Derakon> | Theoretically, with the center held still. |
| 04:56 | <@Derakon> | The wings are attached via FK. |
| 04:57 | < C_tiger> | FK? |
| 04:57 | <@Derakon> | Forward kinematics. |
| 04:57 | <@Derakon> | Basically, I have a point on the chassis and a point on the wing, and I say "See these two points? I want them to always be on top of each other." Then I spin the chassis and the wing has to rotate and move to keep up. |
| 05:33 | | Vornicus [~vorn@ServicesOp.Nightstar.Net] has quit [Ping Timeout] |
| 06:00 | <@Derakon> | After a fair amount of debugging, I'm reasonably certain that the rotation routines I've written in the engine are accurate, which means the bug is probably in the FK code. |

| 20:50 | | * ToxicFrog eyes this circuit diagram |
| 20:51 | <@ToxicFrog> | Ok, wtf |
| 20:51 | <@ToxicFrog> | The voltage across this CCVS is -7.5V |
| 20:52 | <@McMartin> | CCVS? |
| 20:52 | <@ToxicFrog> | Current Controlled Voltage Source |
| 20:53 | <@ToxicFrog> | ...oh, I see what's happening. |
| 20:53 | <@ToxicFrog> | The current controlling it is i4, and it's hooked up so that the reference direction is opposite the actual current direction. |
| 20:54 | <@ToxicFrog> | So it becomes a voltage sink. |
| 20:54 | <@ToxicFrog> | Or a negative voltage source or whatever the right term is. |
| 20:55 | | * UndeadAnno hates circuit theory. |
| 20:56 | <@McMartin> | "A battery installed backwards" |
| 20:56 | | * UndeadAnno laughs. |
| 20:56 | | * UndeadAnno would probably hate it less if the guy teaching it was worth shit. |
| 20:57 | | * McMartin is really really bad at circuits |
| 20:58 | <@ToxicFrog> | I'm familiarizing myself with the sim software. |
| 20:58 | <@ToxicFrog> | And praying he never asks us to analyze circuits with interdependent sources in them. |
| 21:00 | | * gnolam cleverly replaces ToxicFrog with a Thévenin equivalent. |
| 21:01 | <@McMartin> | Hee |
| 21:01 | <@ToxicFrog> | ? |
| 21:02 | <@McMartin> | Mainly "Wow, that's a recall neuron thta hasn't fired in many, many years" |
| 21:02 | | * McMartin eyes gnolam: "RESISTANCE IS FUTILE" |
| 21:02 | <@gnolam> | <Chalain> Conductance is 1/futile! |
| 21:03 | <@McMartin> | Impedance is about half futile, but it's kind of complex |
| 21:03 | <@McMartin> | (I've totally forgotten if Thevenin equivalence is just resistance or impedance too) |
| 21:03 | < UndeadAnno> | My brain, my beautiful brain! It's being subjected to circuit theory humour! |
| 21:04 | <@McMartin> | You awakened my EE 40 flashbacks. |
| 21:05 | < UndeadAnno> | What, you're seeing your family members as EE teachers? |
| 21:06 | < UndeadAnno> | It would be fortuitous for you not to have a gun handy. |
| 21:07 | < UndeadAnno> | Huh. My sister is playing Chip's Challenge. I remember playing that on Win3.1. |
| 21:08 | <@McMartin> | Heh |
| 21:08 | <@McMartin> | I remember that game being mean. |
| 21:09 | < UndeadAnno> | It did have that, 'try hard enough and you'll eventually be forwarded to the next level' thing. |
| 21:09 | <@McMartin> | Heh |
| 21:09 | <@McMartin> | Oh, wow |
| 21:10 | < UndeadAnno> | I remember that level which was huuuuuuuuge, far too huge for a 7-year old to memorize, that had all the fires and bugs. Damn, I hated that level. |
| 21:11 | | * McMartin pokes around looking ofr something else, finds his old copy of the Interrupt List. |
| 21:14 | < UndeadAnno> | Did you find an Outlaw Culture? |
| 21:14 | <@McMartin> | Well, the List was typically used by them, back in the day |
| 21:15 | <@McMartin> | I suppose it will come in handy if I ever decide to target 16-bit DOS with an assembler program. |
| 21:26 | | * ToxicFrog ponders Songbird |
| 21:49 | <@ToxicFrog> | It's slow, but this is excusable since everything it's talking to is on another machine. |
| 21:50 | <@ToxicFrog> | It's also very memory hungry, which is not. |
| 21:50 | <@ToxicFrog> | And it lacks jumpqueue. Aah well, I'll come back to it at v1.0 and see if it's improved any. |
