did dac just suggest that C++ is... *less* messy than C?

It may have adjusted object tags and physics that make it "lighter", so they can actually throw much further than the specified range. Similiar in a sense to how ww2 RPG works, where you can attack half the distance and it goes twice that far.

It looks like the arrow object tag has been modified. Gravity (WU/ticks^2) changed from the default -0.004 to -0.002.

Figured

YES.

oop anyone? ANYONE? &parameters anyone? new() and free() anyone?

HEY NERDS. THIS THREAD IS ABOUT ME BEING THE FIRST SUCCESSFUL MYTH EXPERTS CHAMPION. TAKE YOUR TRASH TALKING, STAR TREK SUPPORTING, JONAS BROTHERS' LISTENING ASSES OUT OF MY THREAD.

jonas brothers listening? kirk you shouldnt be posting in your own thread!

Just cause you've authored it doesn't make it your property. Sort of like how all the plugins made for M2 belong to Take 2, not their creators. So, technically this thread belongs to Magma, and you should stop being a child

Lots of programs written in C use OOP, Myth included.

C++ is *massively* more complex than C, so using it properly requires some combination of either a) discipline to restrict oneself to a subset of its functionality or b) greatly increased experience or intelligence.

The upshot is that Joe Coder is much more likely to create a wild tangled mess of operator overloaded template multiply inherited object hierarchies in C++ than he is in C, simply because all that extra functionality is there.

That's the "average case complexity" argument - I believe this is what DA is referring to. Obviously one can write good or bad code in either language.

i have wet dreams of doing oop in c. any jobs in your area hiring for it? they sure arent around here if they exist.

ok.. first off, the souless arent that bad to deal with. second, they werent meant to be that good, screw up with mixing tags.. has been fixed. ibis crown is now fixed (forgot to turn off a tuni when the units teleport.)

I like c (not to good at it, but im learning)

Stay tuned for a new release of myth 2: Experts coming to your local wall-greens soon.

You had me until walgreens.
