| 08:59:49 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> found another s_bot bug (I think): he'll shield even if you're not firing at him |
| 08:59:58 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> anyone else notice this? |
| 09:19:51 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Yeah he’s just running tests of his systems |
| 09:20:07 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Routine diagnostics and such |
| 09:28:08 | BFDiscordBridge | <Quartz> You know what s_bot needs, is more efficient shield usage. That is definitely the most underpowered aspect of s_bot. 🙃🙃🙃 |
| 09:30:12 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> i detect a whiff of sarcasm |
| 09:37:02 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Yeah whenever Quartz turns into an owl and spins his head all the way around to smile he’s usually sarcastic |
| 09:37:42 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> turns out that bullets shot from s_bot are detected as being on a random team |
| 09:37:56 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> so he's shielding because he thinks his own bullets are the enemy |
| 09:40:42 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> FYI I'm using this shielding problem in order to get used to s_bot code, then I plan on tackling the worst problems first, which according to you guys are... what exactly? |
| 09:41:04 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> These are the current open issues: https://github.com/bitfighter/bitfighter/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+bot |
| 09:42:12 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> and obviously there's the general issue of "I hate s_bot" |
| 10:08:38 | BFDiscordBridge | <bobdaduck> Make a 1-10 difficulty level and make it pick a new difficulty level each spawn |
| 10:19:29 | | BFLogBot Comment on issue #646 | User: bobdaduck | Comment: Slightly different from the commented out code from the past- instead of actively augmenting all energy regen, you have ... | https://github.com/bitfighter/bitfighter/pull/646#issuecomment-753511645 |
| 10:27:20 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> i like that idea |
| 10:41:10 | BFDiscordBridge | <Quartz> What do you mean by “each spawn”? Difficulty level on bots sounds amazing 🙂 |
| 10:41:53 | BFDiscordBridge | <bobdaduck> like every time you kill it it becomes randomly harder or easier |
| 10:41:57 | BFDiscordBridge | <bobdaduck> Or maybe not even randomly |
| 10:42:04 | BFDiscordBridge | <bobdaduck> just enough that its about 50/50 |
| 10:43:29 | BFDiscordBridge | <Quartz> Hmmm maybe. The option to do that would be cool. Maybe name it R_bot for “random” or some such. And the other bots could be labeled too, like have set difficulty bots “easy_bot,” “hard_bot,” etc.?? I don’t care how many difficulty levels but three or more sounds amazing to me |
| 10:45:31 | BFDiscordBridge | <bobdaduck> S_bot was originally programmed with difficulty levels |
| 10:45:55 | BFDiscordBridge | <bobdaduck> IDK they should still be in there maybe something broke and they don't change anything anymore |
| 10:46:28 | BFDiscordBridge | <numbers> they are in there, it;s just hard to get at them |
| 10:46:50 | BFDiscordBridge | <numbers> you have to manually add an s_bot and then input the difficulty parameter from 0 to 1 |
| 10:46:58 | BFDiscordBridge | <numbers> it defaults to 0.5 |
| 10:47:36 | BFDiscordBridge | <numbers> when i want an s_bot that doesn't Abuse Robot Reflexes i set it to 0.4-0.45 |
| 10:47:55 | BFDiscordBridge | <numbers> though under 0.4 it's pretty trivial to kill one |
| 10:57:08 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> When I clicked the link for open bot issues I saw one that said something about making the bot have a random name every time it was added |
| 10:57:13 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> I think that would be cool |
| 10:57:22 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> So people don’t feel like they’re just constantly fighting robots |
| 10:57:30 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Craig or Dave or Janice |
| 10:57:55 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Could probably just put a list of like 50 names in the bot file |
| 10:58:00 | BFDiscordBridge | <numbers> make it AdjectiveNoun form |
| 10:58:12 | BFDiscordBridge | <numbers> so you get PowerGator or something like that |
| 10:58:30 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Heh that could be cool too |
| 11:06:02 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> I have test code that can randomly choose a name and append [s_bot] at the end. I think there needs to be some marker to tell it is a bot |
| 11:08:30 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> oh wait, there already is |
| 11:08:44 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> the B on the scorebaord |
| 11:08:49 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Yeah |
| 11:08:56 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> I think the name could be realistic |
| 11:11:54 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> If someone wants to come up with a list of random adjectives and another of random nounds, I can just glue them together |
| 11:15:39 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> this game did something similar with their ship names: https://github.com/endless-sky/endless-sky/blob/master/data/human/names.txt |
| 11:17:14 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Endless sky is a good game |
| 11:17:30 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Spiritual successor to another game I grew up with |
| 11:19:45 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> escape velocity? |
| 11:20:05 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Yep! |
| 11:20:08 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Love that game |
| 11:20:41 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Actually backed a Kickstarter for an actual successor called Cosmic Override |
| 11:21:16 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> The company who made the EV series went under but some of the people who were there are working on this Kickstarter |
| 11:57:10 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> ever played 'naev'? |
| 11:57:23 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> another OSS project like endless-sky |
| 12:30:55 | BFDiscordBridge | <Quartz> @raptor I would love to contribute random adjectives and nouns. How many do you want? |
| 12:35:21 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> maybe start with at least a dozen of each (or any amount higher) that'll give us a gross count of names. The algo will be very basic: botname = random(adjective) + random(noun) |
| 12:44:41 | BFDiscordBridge | <Footie> i would like to nominate penguin please and thank you this is all i want from life |
| 12:52:27 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> I have played naev, I didn’t like it as much as endless sky |

| 14:56:00 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> I like that a lot |
| 14:56:11 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Is that just an s_bot thing currently or all bots? |

| 17:59:03 | BFDiscordBridge | <Footie> ...tasty penguin? 🙁 |
| 19:41:47 | BFDiscordBridge | <Quartz> You asked for penguin so it’s in there now lol |
| 19:56:02 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Penguins are very tasty |
| 20:00:10 | BFDiscordBridge | <Da_King1085> penguin burger |

| 20:05:24 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> can you show me just after the crash? |
| 20:05:49 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> or maybe the end? I wonder if it was a graphics issue of some sort |
