Re: Battletent Fix ^^ Python does, you use tabs instead of brackets Also, it's much easier to debug and read if it's spaced out enough, and indented

Re: [showcase] Red Fury Looks great, although that's an odd collection of countries you used :p

Just something I learned today which might come in handy I had to cut down this set of queries: db::query('update `company_staff` set `money_earned` = `money_earned` + "' . $split[1] . '" where `rank` = 1'); db::query('update `company_staff` set `money_earned` = `money_earned` + "' . $split[2] . '" where `rank` = 2'); db::query('update `company_staff` set `money_earned` = `money_earned` + "' . $split[3] . '" where `rank` = 3'); db::query('update `company_staff` set `money_earned` = `money_earned` + "' . $split[4] . '" where `rank` = 4');   Which was obviously pretty inefficient, especially when it was inside a loop. Asked for help, and this is where Mysql's case comes in   Long story short, I ended up with this: db::query('update `company_staff` set `money_earned` = `money_earned` + ( case when `rank` = 1 then "'.$split[1].'" when `rank` = 2 then "'.$split[2].'" when `rank` = 3 then "'.$split[3].'" when `rank` = 4 then "'.$split[4].'" end )');   i.e. 4 queries down to one 8-)

Re: Allows you to email all your game users and BAM your servers dead. Use smtp at least or use some sort of scheduler

Re: [MOD] UPGRADE Retrieve original Password If they email your password, then it's insecure. It doesn't matter how many layers of encryption or security they have, it'll be insecure, and I wouldn't really trust it.

Re: [MOD] UPGRADE Retrieve original Password You can, but that'd be silly The ONLY way that security works well enough is if you hash the passwords one way, and if people need it, they can set a new one. Don't even think about sending them the hash, or sending them an unhashed password, just reset it. Don't bother with retrieval, if people are too lazy to set a new one if they forget it, then too bad

Re: [MOD] UPGRADE Retrieve original Password .......

Re: The world mite end on Wednesday 10ths september 2008... There's 'coincidence' to the 2012 crap, such as the "Planet X will collide with Earth" (the planet x that doesn't exist, that is), the calendar junk, ancient stories and tales and whatever else. And they all point to the end of the world in the year 2000. Oh wait I mean 2003. No wait 2012!

Re: The world mite end on Wednesday 10ths september 2008... Sorry to bring you bad news again, but it's not going to end in 2012 either, the Mayan calendar doesn't end it just starts another 'cycle'.. it'd be like us thinking the world will end every december 31st

Re: The world mite end on Wednesday 10ths september 2008... They turned it on and sent one beam in one direction, they didn't actually do any atom smashing yet, that comes next month. It's just the media enjoys not knowing anything about science and blowing it out of proportion

Re: Counting (nr game) 1994! burn!

Re: The world mite end on Wednesday 10ths september 2008... I'd take those 1% chances, but it's not even that, there's a near-zero chance anything will go wrong, so small you can ignore it anyway. There's a nonzero chance that brushing your teeth will spawn a black hole, but the chance is small you don't worry about it, same thing here. Scientists were worried in the first atomic tests that the bomb would ignite the entire atmosphere, but they did it anyway, and we're fine (the rest of the world that is) I'd rather spend billions on science than billions on wars

Re: Google Chrome I think they also said they wanted to help enable web apps that are basically a lot more advanced, the debuted Gmail back whenever which pushed the limits of the browser already, so now they can set the limits themselves. Google already gets plenty of info from it's toolbar, they also said (haven't checked the source) that there is no reporting sort of feature, the only contact is the download of malware/phishing sites
