^ My vote. Principle of least astonishment.

Full agreement.

I'll wax philosophical for a second. I see a significant parallel here to our policy on server hits. Admittedly there is likely some self-preservation behind that policy - if mafia abused KoL's servers, we'd incur the direct wrath of TPTB - but also some altruism. Server hits cost TPTB money...

Hum. Have people been having Guide updating break on them multiple times, or is it perhaps limited to that one singular hiccup in the repo (that everyone who then had it installed experienced)? (I have to say that I'm increasingly aware of how fragile a technology svn is. Between various...

I'd rather people figure out how to reproduce the bug with Guide that causes mafia to (silently?) fail updates. A reinstall context-menu item is fine.

Can't reproduce, worked for me. Mafia asks for and checks the last-modified header for the file and doesn't replace if the server responds with a 304, so maybe that happened to you?

Yet Another Dropbox Sync Issue, if I had to guess. You need to nuke your svn/ folder and re-install stuff. Or do a dropbox rollback thingie, however that works.

you need to turn on spoilers

That's not the syntax to run from terminal, that's the syntax to run headless - i.e. without any graphical interface - from the terminal. Also, it's wrong, since Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: default directory must be absolute it tries to specify relative paths instead of absolute ones.

Indeed. More than once I've been tempted to start from (semi-)scratch with a simulated annealing approach, but that would take legitimately something like 100 dev hours. And would probably be harder to maintain than the current maximizer. On the plus side it would be awesome, so

That, again, doesn't work at all for outfits/synergies. Suboptimal per-slot score can be part of the global optimum solution when synergies are involved. A synergetically useful thing may have a score of exactly 0 when you look at it individually for its slot, but the amortized synergy bonus...

It's always done that for me, for the last ~2 years at least. Amusingly the whole page loads before redirecting to en.wikipedia.org; you can actually hit X and stop the request from finishing (of course, you have to do that on every single page...). I suspect one of the mediawiki javascript...

Nah, I wouldn't make cache clear do anything to svn image folders. The majority of places inside mafia that touch the images folder are actually fine just being told to explicitly only to operate on $ROOT/images. Only one call site (FileUtilities.downloadImage) needs to be told to search...

I don't own a single piece of brimstone or cloathing so practically I can't really be the one to fix this. The fix is also rather complex, so don't get your hopes up about it coming terribly soon. Just use the already-existing preference to limit the number of combinations checked if you're...

Can scripts directly write to that directory? I didn't think so.. Assuming they can't, it's just a bit of work on my end (which I've already done) to do a search through all svn projects' image/ folders whenever we look for an image locally. Seems to work okay in my limited testing.

The bounty_count item proxy field was removed in r13577, the whole bounty system has changed. This script needs to be updated.

I agree, yes. But like... isn't that just what we're currently doing ? The file in $ROOT/data is physically a different file from the "pristine" file in /svn/project/data, and that's precisely why I thought we might want to keep the current behavior specifically for data files. I dunno. The...

I feel like we're still not communicating. WHAT HAPPENS NOW Joe has a svn project, joescript. He has a data file in that project, svn/joescript/data/joescript.txt. When his script is installed via svn, the "default" version of that data file gets copied to $ROOT/data/joescript.txt. His...

No, there are no conflicts right now. If a script updates its svn/data/whatever data file (by svn committing a change to it), it 100% overwrites the copy in $ROOT/data/whatever. No muss, no fuss.
