[2015-12-12. : 8:44 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I like it too, but he has more patience to read about it and learn about it I guess[2015-12-12. : 8:43 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I have it lucky, because my friend loves the super math and geometry heavy stuff way more than I do, so if I decide something's too hard or complicated I'll just be like "hey, you can figure this out" xD[2015-12-12. : 8:43 am] Dem0n -- I wonder if the people who work on graphics for games get paid a lot, because this shit is riduclous[2015-12-12. : 8:39 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- instead of just being like what the fuck am I looking at[2015-12-12. : 8:38 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- my friend was having me read about R-trees, that shit's so cool xD But that's because we have like an application for it that it solves something we need to do[2015-12-12. : 8:36 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- but if they're like here make a modding tool for SC, it'd be like o man this so cool I can do this shit[2015-12-12. : 8:36 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- ya, that's what I mean. It's like a math class.. they're just throwing all the numbers and stuff at you, but there's no value or meaning to them[2015-12-12. : 8:35 am] Dem0n -- I also suck at linear algebra so it's not a very good topic for me ;o[2015-12-12. : 8:35 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I think it's just a case of like there has to be something specific you want to do with it to care about it[2015-12-12. : 8:33 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- spkedit does it in a way ... like imagine the coordinates of those, and of the selection rectangle. The left edge is just the leftmost edge of any star, the right edge is the rightmost edge of any star, etc.[2015-12-12. : 8:29 am] Dem0n -- So I go through all the triangles, and find the overall smallest x, y, and z values?[2015-12-12. : 8:29 am] Dem0n -- I thought you somehow find the smallest vector (if that's even a thing) and use that[2015-12-12. : 8:28 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I'm not sure what you are asking, but you do it for each axis independently[2015-12-12. : 8:27 am] Dem0n -- Is the right way to do that to just add up the x, y, and z values and see which one is smallest/biggest?[2015-12-12. : 8:27 am] Dem0n -- I'm trying to set the min by going through each triangle (triangles make up the object) and seeing which one has the smallest min value and using that. Likewise for the max value.[2015-12-12. : 8:26 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- or if there are circles like the center -/+ the radius[2015-12-12. : 8:25 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- The easiest way is just find the minimum/maximum X/Y/Z for each point, unless you're doing like crazy search patterns for it[2015-12-12. : 8:21 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- what kind of bounding boxes? are they axis-aligned, or just like the smallest rectangle/shape that contains points/shapes?[2015-12-12. : 8:19 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Remember kids, being lazy and taking shortcuts never pays off.[2015-12-12. : 8:19 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I did plan it out, and then I was like "that sounds hard, I'll do it this way. It's easier and lazier.", but then that made it harder to do the next part xD[2015-12-12. : 8:18 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- It comes with being lazy and just making it up as you go[2015-12-12. : 8:15 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- like I can do it, if I just sat down and worked on it then I'd get it done but I'm lazy[2015-12-12. : 8:14 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: It fucking sucks when you think you're doing something right but you're actually doing it wrong and end up wasting hours upon hours doing it the wrong way And then I realized the way I figured out made it harder to do the next step, so now I'm back to trying to figure it out and then procrastinating ![]() [2015-12-12. : 8:14 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I think I get what you're saying, I'm experiencing it currently in my project. like I know what I want, but I'm not sure how to get there.. but once I figure out how to actually do it then like I can power through it and then the feeling of getting shit done makes it way better too[2015-12-12. : 8:13 am] Dem0n -- It fucking sucks when you think you're doing something right but you're actually doing it wrong and end up wasting hours upon hours doing it the wrong way[2015-12-12. : 8:11 am] Dem0n -- Maybe it's just that I had no clue what the fuck I was doing for the past 3 hours, so I was just blankly staring at the screen trying random shit and hoping and worked, and now I actually kind of understand what to do, so I feel more productive[2015-12-12. : 8:09 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- It's probably the same as just drinking a bunch of coffee[2015-12-12. : 8:02 am] Dem0n -- It didnt' feel like adderall was doing anything like 3 hours ago when I took it, but now I'm like randomly in the zone[2015-12-12. : 7:18 am] BloodyZombie117 -- Farty, you never did tell me if you liked my sailboat or not.[2015-12-12. : 6:43 am] jjf28 -- or since your program doesn't sound performance sensitive, could go ahead and copy-ctor it in, return it out "Triangle aFunc(Triangle inTriangle);", worry bout nona dis reference crap |
