Floating-point locations

[loftar]

I'm not entirely sure when I'll actually merge floating-point locations to the real server, but I've pushed the relevant client changes to an "fpos" branch on the public repos, so that you can try and merge the code and find/fix the conflicts in advance.

The reason I'm holding out for now is mostly because there's little visible impact from the change, so I'm still testing it to see if I can wash out any more bugs. (I still haven't found any really tricky ones, which makes me nervous that they're still hiding out there. ^^)

Just a headsup for now.

What does this do?

[sabinati]

it calculates your coordinates more precisely, e.g. 11.235, 420.69, instead of 11, 421

Oh, so nothing, glad we got that instead of combat.
Thanks.

you some kind of dumb?

[Granger]

He is.

Back to topic please.

Loftar, is it ok if game looks like this after merge?

Is this because server is still on old protocol or this is merge error?

[RJT]

He is.

Back to topic please.

"Oh look we made stupid hit boxes slightly less gay instead of giving, working on, or thinking about a change that may make a stupid combat system less stupid."

But yeah, no, I'm dumb because I along with many others don't like you.

It's because the server still uses the old protocol, yes. What you're seeing is probably the expected result.

proper pathing is far more important than combat changes youre dumb because you have no idea how significant changing to floating point coords is and then you flame loftar about combat as if he isnt also working on that too
