[Wraithblade6]

Werewolf vs. Vampire

[Shikaru]

Lolz. Let's just say I have quite a few things thought out. :3. WHY ISNT ANYONE POSTING!?! DAMN YOU MEMORIAL DAY ;-;. Lol.

[Wraithblade6]

I'm just chillin yo. ...on the table.

[Shikaru]

You play Growtopia? if not download it kk.

[akje]

posted. story time! while everyone else is fighting for their lives it's campfire stories time back at home in kilo point haha.

I'm not sure how clear the pseudo-code is, so what Martin is saying there is: call magnus's land-line at home, give a status report to whoever picks up.

[FoxFireOfDawn]

I just realised I made Axel go 'NOPE.' On the whole fighting thing at the church...
Woop! X3

[akje]

he could change his mind, take a 180 turn and decide to meddle from a safe distance

[thewizardguy]

You know, BioPILOT would be happy to call Magnus, if someone hadn't friend it's communications array. So you know..... yeah. ^^

[akje]

Yeah I was afraid my code wasn't really clear hehe. I meant communications with Mithias. As in: leave Mithias in the dark. Couse that's funny.
Aside from that there's nothing wrong with his communications array.

[FoxFireOfDawn]

Screw it, gonna get Axel to go back and ruin someone's day.

[akje]

Going in for the kill-steal?

BwahahahahaahHAaa... *cries*

Entertaining the theory that I'm not as smart as I think I am. And the code I thought was clear clearly wasn't:

Pseudocode:
>Write new protocol(ark);
>ark.objectives[0] = Escort($Mithias, Laboratory);
>ark.objectives[1] = print($Neurotoxin_antidote.location);
>ark.objectives[2] = Contain($Mithias, Laboratory);
>ark.objectives[3] = Set($Mithias.Communications, false);
>ark.objectives[4] = Execute protocol(repairs.routine);
>ark.objectives[5] = Course.Set(Locations.KiloPoint.position);
>Execute protocol(ark);

Human English:
Based on the commands Jack gave and my (basic) knowledge of object based programming I figured that Jack's AI worked based on Objectives rather than direct scripting.
So the user would select objectives and the sophisticated program would calculate the route to that objective itself.
So Martin sets up a protocol, which is basically an array with objectives, then fills the array, then tells the computer to execute the protocol.
He named the protocol ark, because he is Martin and that is the kind of thing he would do.

The objectives call upon prewritten protocols like
Escort($object,location); This means move $object to location.
Print() is a (fairly); universal command to output data. Martin asks him to look up the object $$Neurotoxin_antidote and then the value 'location' and output that.
Contain($object,location); This means keep $object in location.
Set($Mithias.Communications, false); Don't talk to Mithias.
Execute protocol(repairs.routine); Take the pre-existing protocol called repairs and run the routine part. You know, to fix the damage done to the ship.

Pseudocode:
>Connect.cellphone(GET_phonedatabase['Magnus Home']);
>Print(status.report(t-10800,t));

Human English:
Make a connection to Magnus's home phone in Kilo Point. He should be in Jack's adress book.
Report everything that happened in the prewritten format named 'report()' in the time between now and 3 hours ago.

[Shikaru]

Did he call Magnus's house phone?...Aren't you there? lol.

[Wraithblade6]

Maybe Martin wants BIOPilot to call and give himself the report. Anyhoo, since Martin was in Mithias' mind when he cooked the communications system, he should know BioPilot can't make calls of any kind at the moment.

Did you have to write objective #2? >>

[thewizardguy]

lol. I think you're underestimating BioPILOT's capability for individual thought.

[Wraithblade6]

Oh fuck.

[akje]

Well yeah obviously. I have no idea how independent he is. All I can do is try and see what sticks.
I might also add that Martin is pretty damn spent right now, no second blast hehe.
Mithias might be able to contact him but that's on his own juice.

[Wraithblade6]

Nope. I'm throwing myself at wiz's feet. I'm sure he's used to that kind of thing.
