Re: Seed Numbers

awesome, maybe then matthewfarmery farmerymatthew or some random set of digits that come to mind Sorry but you are limited to 12 characters for the conversion in base 10 to stay below 2^64. In case you're wondering: base 36 => base 10 mattfarmery => 2935267318761719296 farmerymatt => 55935902312427...

Re: Modding

Yeah we mean mostly the same thing. It's all in what you consider to be "pretty much everyting". For a better definition of what I don't think will or should be randomly generated you can see my earlier post last page. Oh, I see. But then arguing about it is meaningless, because we don't know yet w...

If you say so. :)

Beware the conversion from base 36 to base 10, though. "17" in base 36 actually "43" in base 10 and "17" in base 10 is "H" in base 36. :ugeek:

Re: Inspired...

Ditto, Josh you have also inspired me to "get off my arse" and jump into C# programming - something I have should have been doing for the last couple of years but keep putting it off. After reading your blog and filtering the C++ tags http://joshparnell.com/blog/tag/c/ I see you went through some p...

Not really, since you yourself said "Basic physics rules need to be input somewhere", so it seems most of our definitions of "input" coincides. ;)

Re: Inspired...

OMG, that takes the cake. I've looked up "procedural generation" on amazon.fr and found this title: "Procedural Generation: Computer Graphics, Level Design, Fractal, Speech Synthesis, Electronic Music, Generative Music, Avalanche Studios, Lazy Evaluation, Functional Programming" Then I read the desc...

Re: Modding

@Zak Gordon: well, my understanding is that pretty much everything in LT is procedurally generated. I don't think it works that way. Basic physics rules need to be input somewhere to limit armor/weapons/shields/engines to reasonable and fair levels. These are constant and can be exported and modifi...
