Title: The 'I Caught this on Reddit/Slashdot/Youtube' Thread Post by: Minus on March 03, 2009, 04:17:56 am Since I don't think we have one yet. Try to keep it software/nerd interest related to bear some relevancy to the MIG fanbase.
Anyway, I thought you guys might like this thing I read on reddit (http://toolssig.wordpress.com/2009/02/24/sweating-the-small-stuff/) a few days ago. Thought of you for some reason :P Title: Re: The 'I Caught this on Reddit/Slashdot/Youtube' Thread Post by: Kumlekar on March 03, 2009, 04:40:16 am hm, thats the exact same format as for stick strike levels, wish I had thought of that.

I actually have a dodgy command-line utility which takes an SVG graphics file and turns it into a basic Mayhem Intergalactic map, so you can use Inkscape (http://www.inkscape.org/) as a map editor. You have to set production, starting priorities, etc. yourself though, and it messes up if you don't do what it expects. Some of the standard maps in MI were made using it. I can release it if anyone's interested - I haven't done so yet because it's really pretty dodgy. :) Title: Re: The 'I Caught this on Reddit/Slashdot/Youtube' Thread Post by: Kumlekar on March 03, 2009, 05:00:41 am It would be great if you would, using that and then put the map file into comotion to generate the values would be fabulous.
Title: Re: The 'I Caught this on Reddit/Slashdot/Youtube' Thread Post by: Chris on March 03, 2009, 07:51:36 am OK, I'll put doing that on my list.
On a completely different topic... I didn't catch this via a website, but it's too cool not to mention anyway: http://siftables.com/ Title: Re: The 'I Caught this on Reddit/Slashdot/Youtube' Thread Post by: Kumlekar on March 06, 2009, 04:23:27 am that siftables link has been sent to everyone I know. those things are awesome. I just want to see some functionality with them combined with microsoft's surface technology.
