Note that this post may be completely deleted and redone as progress continues. Like what happened just now. S2Tester is what is currently being used to test via console output how building sentinels is working out. And how various parts affect different things and crap.

Oh. It's just data storage and formatting pretty much. That's the output of hard-coding a few sentinel builds. In case you're wondering what the Fake <> is about, that's a part. It's constructed by entering a string and it doesn't do anything at all besides be there. |

Are the weight, jump and flight values true or arbitrary numbers? |

Pretty much arbitrary. Just for the record, if anyone throws a hissy fit about "ERMAGERSH IRTSH NERT TRUUUH TO ESHHHESSHHHH" I may have to strangle you. Calm the frick down. This isn't Jagex. If something needs fixing, you just need to talk to me. Or Kosmos or any other dev once we get a centralized all-developer-editable source. Or just assume that we're working on it. Like a new bug that popped up about 30 seconds ago when I tried to do something fancy. |

Okay so the new bug has now been fixed. And it's time for me to explain trees. There is are three classes that form the base of the sentinel configuration. SentinelConfig SentinelPart SentinelSlot The SentinelConfig is sortof the sum of the whole thing. It contains the total stats and everything. The SentinelPart represents a part. Any and all parts are a SentinelPart, including the chassis. The SentinelSlot represents a slot. SentinelPart's with the correct slot type set can go in these. The SentinelConfig has a slot set to hold a chassis. This makes a "tree" because SentinelPart's can have a list of SentinelSlot's in them. For example, the Razor Arms have 6 more slots : 2 light and 4 rocket slots. If I had a working image editor I would make a picture of this, but it's sortof like where the SentinelConfig is the root and the parts are the branches. Any part that doesn't have more slots is a leaf. |

It's better to make the codes with lots of numbers than what they really stand for (like codes in 8-bit) but the codes do the same thing(s) as if the codes were in 4-bit. This tremendously cuts down on hackers. |

You can't really stop hackers. I haven't settled the details with Kosmos but I think a lot of the code will be host-based. So hacking will have little effect. The only useful hack I can think of would be ignoring WMD. Or possibly screwing with timestamps on actions. That's the only thing I think we need to be concerned with.

You and Kosmos are making great progress so far. Great job.

It prolly won't be in final build. Right now what it does is it increases sentinel arcs. I just put it in cuz I was bored. |
