Mqrius's Mega Map Source Release :)

[Mqrius]

Heya!
As you may have noticed, I haven't been active for a while. The map (world 3) didn't process any uploads, because I turned it off after some mismatch I never got around to fixing.

I promised to a few people that if I ever went inactive, I would release the source. That time is now
For the time being I also reset the havenmap.student.utwente.nl, and opened the uploader/processing again. I also built a quick fix that should prevent the processing of all files earlier than 13th January, so you don't need to worry about that (although it's untested, but meh.)
At some point it may explode again, but I hope at that time someone has gotten my system up and running, and I can transfer everything to that person.

About the source:
It's rather chaotic, sorry about that. I have *some* commenting, but not enough, and on first glance you probably won't see what does what. So, the basics:
upload.php receives the uploads from the uploader tool, puts data in the todo table of the database (Data/minimaps.db), and sends a notification that there's new stuff.
eventListener.py listens for this notification, and sends the new batch to processBatch.py. Afterwards eventListener does some stuff to calculate the new score, and create zoomed out tiles for the map (called the Cache due to historic reasons).
In processBatch various things happen. First, batch is read, and matched against itself, then matched against the database, and then inserted.

Not sure what else to say. Really sorry about the chaotic code. Good luck with it

You didn't archive world 3 map?

You didn't archive world 3 map?

[FatBob]

I updated and the map still the same ?

[Oddity]

I thought you were never coming back. Where did you go?

You didn't archive world 3 map?

Of course I did It's just not publicly available anywhere at the moment. Is there any interest in it?

I updated and the map still the same ?

That means it didn't match to the current map. Try http://havenmap.student.utwente.nl/?map=2 or http://havenmap.student.utwente.nl/?map=3 or whatever. It's up to map=6 at the time of posting.

I thought you were never coming back. Where did you go?

Lost motivation, as seems to be the fate of most of my large projects. I hadn't been playing for a while anyway. Still though, the map should run nearly autonomous now, barring any mismatches/errors, so it'll be up for a while I guess.

[Gotrek64]

hmm still nothing on the map for me...

[Mqrius]

Are you uploading as Gotrek64?

Maps up to map=15 atm At some point they'll start merging, if everything goes correctly.

So glad to see you still exist man! Now there are three maps - two that have gotten some progress over yours but yours had some of the cleanest maps -- though one of them runs real smooth, don't recall which.

Anyhow, glad you're alive.
