Been talking with someone I've known a long time about starting to do that text adventure game again, but doing a natlang parser for it is going to be a pain

So, the reason I've been mucking around in trigonometry recently is because there is an interesting stellar feature in the star system we're currently in in Elite dangerous, but it's shape is a dept illusion or something because I can't locate it in neighboring systems.So, I am going to make a compleatly rigorous sky triangulating library because it tasks me and I shall have it.

The main issue is that the only reliable mesuring tool for angles is the ui heading indicator on planets, which you can maybe guess large fractions on, and lat/lon coordinates, which can be useful if you can figure out the exact point where a star is above.There is elevation with heading if you're in the air but the ship only stays still enough to get a good reading from that on tiny moons, plus lat/lon has higher precision and can be easily verified if you're taking measurements in odyssey by looking directly up

There's an optimization in elite that makes this harder: the skybox is the same from any point in the same star system, so you can't take parallax from 2 planets in the same system, or 2 points on the same planet. Probably couldn't do that without elevation angle or sub-degree precision anyway though.

Oh hey, EDSM's API has a "Get all the stars in x radius of a star" command, that's perfect. Wish I saw that before I started downloading stars that are probably only visible within a small radius of solthere's even an option to exclude stars that are within a second smaller radius, meaning that it can be used to find the star once you have the multilateration distances.

aha. found it.I changed a map to a vector and did not account for the different behavior of operator[](), so it's accessing an invalid pointer, causing a segfault, and so the behavior, naturally, cannot be reproduced when given a valid pointer.since it's evaluating trig functions correctly for now according to the debugger, I can wait until it starts throwing zeros again to fix that one.

I think I am going to get a large flash drive to store EDSM dumps on, and a second one to manipulate them on because this computer's hard drive is full

"I'll do a text adventure because it sounds easier" and other jokes you can tell yourselfon the other hand, I would probably be doing raycasting from scratch if I wasn't doing this

If you post a meme and nobody responds to it, keep posting it every few days and it will eventually go viral
