I thought this might be a good place to find some.

Going to need to stress test this with 15 or 20 people after I finish a few more chunks of the engine.
Cool people who I remember, add me back on skype infernorulesyou, steam dmtinferno, or aim infernoxpyro.

Yuck Java.

Hit me up I'll help test it.

@Ex + Limited Thanks for the volunteer but I don't have a way to contact you? Unless I'm just bad at checking my friends lists. (spoiler, I am)

Still need as many peeps as I can get. Might have to scour some other forums heh.

What do we need to test this? If it isn't much i'll jump onboard. And what would best to contact you? derp. i'll add you when I get home and reinstall skype: johnflasser

You just need java 1.7 which you most likely already have. Right now connections are done via terminal but I'll add a basic UI before we test.

I'm going to do 1 more revision to player physics before we test, my current calculation is very bulky and I thought of a better way to do it.

When do you think we're going to start testing?

I didn't really have the :effort: to work on physics so I did UI and networking stuff. I'll write extrusion based collision detection either Sunday or Monday, then testing will start. :iamafag:

Holy fuck I am tired.

They told me I could become anything, so I became a programmer.

So I finally finished the physics improvements.
Adapting this equation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specular_reflection) took longer than I thought (I got facerolled by math) but it finally works. Loss of velocity based on magnitude of the angle of reflection hasn't been implemented but that is an easy thing to work out when I get around to it.
Additionally, I bounded triangles and edges for collision tests which improved the physics calculation time by about 2000%. Framerates are much better now. :iamafag:

Anyways, I need to port physics changes over to the server and we will be all set to test. I am thinking tommarow, so be online and I'll contact you guys when I'm ready to test.
