  • What do you mean by "*MMS Execution refers to a trigger that doesn't appear to exist(gg_trg_SS_Loop)" ??
    Hello Xonok,

    Can you review my spell ?? Massive Mirror Slash [ GUI ]
    If you don't have time then it's okay ^^.
    Yes indeed, having a broader approach like that. Taking into account several parameters so to speak.
    Yeah that's the thing, right? - focusing on what works in a relative and reasonable sense is often much more meaningful than focusing on what's perfect in the sense of absolute conventions and tecnical perfection. But the latter is easier because it can be thought of and described in strict terms - it's easy to say that a piece of code would be faster if this and that optimization would be made. What's harder (and often more useful and meaningful to pay attention to) is the more "human" aspect of any piece of work (which I cannot easily describe in words because it's relative and requires unique approaches depending on the specific situation, right?).

    But, like, it's not useless to focus on technical details, right? In many ways it's great that the knowledge is there, but it cannot be a force to rule over every other aspect. When it's trivial for the overall concept to remove a leak for instance, then it's useless (and potentially damaging) if everybody are focusing on just that simply because it's easy to address.

    So, yeah... This whole post risks being overly-pretentious but I think you can handle it.

    (Post) Oh damn you're in for a big one now. Totally respect you for posting that though, the purist attitude on the forums is sometimes more restraining than people might realize.
    Thanks, added it to the page.

    Anyways, roleplaying might take time, but in my opinion it's time well spent. Anyways, if you find some sparetime and don't know what to use it on, I'd suggest you take a quick look at the Kaelicious-social group, which is a place for roleplaying, cozy small-talk, reputation-rewarding contests with themes including terraining, writing, drawing and others. It'd definitely be worth your time, and who knows - maybe you'd like the place? :)
    Wow, awzum, I'll be sure to implement that as soon as possible - but right now I'm planning to head for bed in a few minutes. Anyways, you should check out the result so far. If you want to edit further, I suggest you make a wikia account too ^^
    Anyways, noticed you like terraining and roleplaying, is that true? Because then I might know some places just for you :)

    EDIT: Okay, answered back a few questions.
    *You worked at summer, yeah, but what do you do now?
    *Can you link the spellbook tutorial please?
    *I'm not going to read through your blog, but it doesn't matter anyway, the personality-part of the page is pretty good already now :)
    So, page's done, and I completed a list of questions for you, so that we might optimize it even more. You can of course choose not to answer them, if you find them too personal/private/whatever, but I'd surely appreciate at least a single answer :)
    *Do you have any nicknames on the Hive?
    *What are your occupation? Are you studying? Or do you have a job? And in that case, what are you working with?
    *Male or female?
    *What city are you living in?
    *Your birthdate?
    *Which areas of the Hive do you most often appear in?
    *What differs you from other members? What are you known for?
    *How would you describe your own personality? And do you have any political opinions that you want to share?
    *Do you have any goals that you want to achieve on the Hive? With the Hive?
    (Personally, I strive to keep the roleplaying alive here)
    *Have you created any notable resources/threads/whatever on the Hive?
    *Have you done anything weird in here? Something that only few, or none, have done before?
    That's fine - let me make my edit first, and inspiration might come to you. However, I have a few questions that I'd like to ask you, in order to make the page as informative, detailed and correct as possible, but I'll write that list of questions as I make the edit so I'll send it to you afterwards :)
    ----------
    Because, my biggest maps can take up to like 20 seconds to save, which is absolute bullshit if I just want to fix a typo in code.
    ----------
    Dude, I call you lucky :'D IID takes ~30 seconds (if not more) to save, and I have to run the optimizer on it, because it'd take an eternity to load in otherwise. I've already made a few batch files, and TC helps me a lot, but still, it's soo damn annoying.

    Another thing I've been doing is deleting all the doodads and the hero / shop abilities, and saving it as a separate map. I then work on it, and CnP all the stuff back to the original map once I'm done. This is helpful if I work on something that needs a lot of saving/testing, like the ModeCrafter, the latest big project I've been working on.
    Oh yeah, mate, use View Conversation on my VM instead, I can't see your answer before I open your profile D:

    Well, if that's what you meant, I WAS that kind of person back then, but when I found out its immoral, I decide to credit people who talk about it first [usually put the name of the person who said it first in my post].
    Yes, but you used to be much worse.
    Also, by attitude I mean something like repeating what others said and then taking credit as if you said it first. However, I've not seen this happen anymore. This is why I take it that you've changed radically.
    Well, My Grammar isn't excellent but people said that I'm pretty fluent, well, I'm not that fluent, I can't even remember what soak means correctly :xxd:

    But My Attitude is another thing, I'm usually a calm person [to be honest], unless provoked by a person in a topic too much [which sometimes can go rage, but that's rare, the usual is that I post without real meaning or just want to answer him. To avoid this, I usually go to send them VM and PM instead.], I will try to keep myself in a calm state and behave properly :wink:

    Anyway, thanks for the compliment, but I'm not that good at both grammar and attitude :wink:
