Because other 20 times I want to google fast.

Chrome automatically googles if it doesn't match a site...

By the way, Google have fixed their EULA to be less Nazi, and it applies retrospectively to all of us who didn't read it properly and clicked OK.

If I gained some weight, died my hair and let it grow and grew some hefty man boobs.....

... scary.

You're too busy doing those confused.com ads, I bet...

The browser I change to someday, won't steal focus from address bar if page suddenly becomes fully loaded.
Like, when I start Firefox, google.com starts to load. I don't want google, I start typing address. Blam! Google is loaded. And half of my typing goes to nothing since focus is lost from address bar.

Minor thing? Fall for this 20 times per day.

Chrome can't do this.
I wait.

Why don't you use a blank start page?

Also, the main selling points seem to be pretty gimmicky.

The main selling point to me is separate processes per tab. I hate when browser or site bugs brings my whole browser down.

Just downloaded it and so far it looks good! 

Since the games DB (and hence d/l links for most games) was down for most of Mittens, is the deadline for voting getting extended?

I like to thank CJ for fixing the forums! Hoorah! \o/

I've missed them so! :'(

I'd like to thank CJ for increasing the traffic to my blog by making the forums go down! 

Its probably due to rounding errors. Initialise a variable to be the transparency value, inc and dec the variable and then update transperncy with the varible.

Try everything again... perhaps you'll see something has changed

2560x1600

Thanks, I think you're right about this.

However, the problem is that the lowest of these is 1280x800, which is an even larger resolution than AGS's current maximum (1024x768). Although it could be supported, most people don't want to have to draw graphics at that sort of resolution (which would also increase file size dramatically).

One option would be to make a 640x400 game, which could be doubled up with the 2x filter to 1280x800 full screen, but I think what we're after is a widescreen resolution in between -- something like 960x600 -- where the resolution is at the sort of level that people would want to use for their games. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to exist...

Well, 720x450 would let you 2x scale to 1440x900

Uncertainty (e.g. Heisenberg's)

Redwall, I'm no physicist either, but I'd say you'd be safer quoting Murphy's Law in the future.   I know I do all the time!

I prefer Cole's Law:

Having met two other AGSers in person should have inspired you... even though some would say that neither of us have made a proper game either...

Try putting a breakpoint inside the rep_ex function and then step into the Increase method to see whats happening.

Are you checking that timer anywhere else, as IsTimerExpired only ever returns true once.

Much better to code your own timer by setting a variable and decrementing it every cycle,

No, it wouldn't. You'd need to declare temp as a pointer which you can't do to user-defined structs.

So, you want to be able to generate objects outside of your module but for your module to know about them? That's not possible. You'll need to make the repeatedly_execute function in the same place that you declare the object.

However, if your module implements a game time calendar I can't see why anyone would want more than 1, so what's the harm in putting the declaration in your module? If they don't want it at all, they can just remove the module.

But how should AGS know what "this" refers to?

Try this:

Code: ags

struct my_struct {
  import function do_stuff();
}

my_struct inst_name;

function repeatedly_execute() {
  inst_name.do_stuff();
}

To put that another way: store whether the character is there when the verb coin opens, rather than when the verb is selected.
