soo exhausted

For not writing any code that had to have been the most arduous day working on a project I have ever had. I won’t bore you with the 400 line ML post documenting what problems I was having but I will give you the long-short of it as I sort of stumbled onto two lengthy problems.

The first of which is a Bus Error I am encountering on Mac Os X exclusively. Oddly enough you can’t try and start the network on the server before starting the game. This isn’t exactly a deal breaker for continuing with my project but is something that should be address for OS X users. I did get the opportunity to play with gdb and ddd however, something I had been wanting to do for a while.

The next, deal-breaking bug, is the risk rulesets inability to get it up, or rather, the risk server won’t load properly on any platform. If you are really interested in helping me out and aren’t already subscribed to the tp-devel mailing list head over to their archives. Long story short the post is labelled “Ignore the other Server problem – part 2’s (sorry)” The one interesting thing about this bug I can say is that on Ubuntu it causes the client to display a really bastardized version of risk merged with minisec if you launch minisec before attempting to launch risk a certain way.

I won’t continue as I am, for some reason or another, really tired from all this typing/debugging.
