Progress bars added. Screens refined.

This may look like nothing. Its a data form a .dat file! Now I can fill-up the game with 100 card events :)

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix yes, too many lines in one file.

Soon there will be a gameplay ;)

(I got like 50 cards to paste into the data file)

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix one cards.dat that is a database of all cards? ;)

I've already got the engine working reading my test data from that file.

You can figure out the structure :>

I got few more screens done for my BBS! :)

It starts to look professional now :P The basic functionality is considered good enough.

Now I want to deep my toes in to the MPL - Mystic Programing Language. Sneak peek (mockups) are in the ansi gallery (in min menu: !).

@tripplehelix I did some more updates and restored x/y absolute positions for login.

Don't know what is the problem with intro.

Works on DOS telnet and netrunner (via Steam Proton).

@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix What OS was that? I chjecked at the moment in Win10 and latest Netrunner and it's still working fine on my end.

But I did make a super small change to that .ans file yesterday and re-saved it.

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix Thanks for checking and reporting!

The login I just redrawn few characters on the station for better shading.

For login I now understand why so many BBSes have it bare minimal at the bottom - to omi all the relative/absolute problems with positioning inputs :P (I got back to absolute now and have 1 line free at the bottom for all the clients that puts status bar there.

@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix Did nothing since Yesterday evening :)

I'm using DOS native + anisotropic for that CRT look. This is the font you are reffering to?

BTW: I see that there is one empty line in the art - I'll fix that later Today. - EDIT: fixed this and also reduced height of the login page just to be on the safe side.

@tripplehelix fun fact: the windows10 telnet is also completely broken. But at least it shows problematic lines - I think I found one of the sourse of problems (end lines!)

Login screen after second rendering is almost invissible. And the blocky characters are kinda missing :P

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix Probably too. But removing last char on each line prevents this.

It's getting better. I found that this terminal doesnt like the circular char.

There is still a problem after any next render that the block chars disapear but it's closer to reality now.

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix I've got 139 IP on the black list already ;)

I removed that last 3. If it's till not you, tell me the last 3 digits of it so I can clear it.

@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix Ah yes, this is a description of the theme. It should say the name of it first. I will redact this to reflect that this is the one and only theme to choose :D

@tripplehelix I just saw you website - I love it!

And props for CC0, too!

BTW: I was there with bunch of PI's but now I have a big IBM rack that make authentic ASMR noise :P ...and a drawer full of :raspberrypi: :P

💻 http://194.126.207.20/

I'm also preparing for digital apocalypse and want to have it all off-line.

Put port 23 open and you will have a lot of new "friends" from all over the world ;)

I feel like I opened some honeypot :P But the server is still alive and working normally :P

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@stfn to be honest I have it :P but mapped to anything different than "22" :)

Started from scrach.
Figured out how to move login/pass prompts.

Works on win2k telnet. Now I can try to make it longer and more epic :p

@TheOuterLinux @tripplehelix I'm using Netrunner on Steam Deck. But on the retro computer I want to be telnet compatible.

@tripplehelix On linux you need ANSI chars so this will not work out of the box :P

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix @TheOuterLinux I got that to myself after too many connect/disconnect when I was testing each char :P

Then I moved to local IP and continued :P I don't know when the "ban" is lifted as I still can not connect myself. Probably need to do this by hand.

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix @TheOuterLinux yes, it's next to me ;P You're right I need to configure the server a little bit. I was too much concentrated on the problem with ANSI characters braking everything.

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix @TheOuterLinux removed all IPs from blacklist and added local IP to the whitelist.

Rule is 4 connections in 120sec := ban.

BTW: The ban list was covering already two screens :P

w84death,
@w84death@fosstodon.org avatar

@tripplehelix @TheOuterLinux I'm still figuring out the menu - I disabled those options but did not know that it will crash/disconnect.

BTW: this is super WIP - I'm at the creation of login screen at the moment :P (will be longer with big space reveal and then actual login screen similar to what is now).

Long way to the menu and actual content :P

But I will try to hide those "not enabled" menu options or find out how to handle invalid input. It kicks me (SysOp) too :P

I'm back to the ANSI stuff. I'm making few screens for a new BBS server.

Here's the WIP of the intro. There will be a big P1X in the center :)

Also my trusty little Wacom Intuos M is suprasingly useful here!
