Sun, 03 Jun 2012 23:04:21 -0400 Workaround for bug #144. This workaround had occurred to me a while ago, but wasn't sure if placing them unfairly was better than not placing them at all. Argument for not placing at all is people should probably abort the game when they notice it. Argument for placing unfairly is people can still abort, and if we really wanted them to abort, we should probably just have halted launch if all hogs failed to spawn. This way at least play can continue.

Frontlib: Work on the callback mechanisms for IPC Work commit; It compiles and runs but will need a major overhaul tomorrow.
Sun, 03 Jun 2012 22:56:30 -0400 After experimenting with a long running average at maxed out FPS and a variety of map sizes, 128 seems to actually be a good size to use if only drawing bits of world with stuff in it. 64 actually did even better in some situations, but significantly worse in others (lots of land, zoomed out).

Medo <smaxein@googlemail.com> [Sun, 03 Jun 2012 01:24:18 +0200] rev 7171
frontlib refactoring socket.h now completely wraps all the lowlevel neworking, so it would be easy to switch away from SDL_net if needed. Also reduced global state by making an IPC connection an object-like thing.
