erle: the PDP-11 did it by making a copy of the whole process's memory space, either in RAM or, if necessary, on the swap disk |
| 00:17 |
muurkha |
Unix on the PDP-7 only had the latter option |
| 00:19 |
muurkha |
but on a paged machine like the 386 you could do it by just changing the parent's mappings to be copy-on-write, if you simultaneously reserve enough pages to handle those copies should they in fact be needed |
| 00:19 |
muurkha |
in the swapfile, potentially, rather than in RAM |
| 00:20 |
muurkha |
you can unreserve them on execve() or _exit() |

if i want a variable spacing in a for loop in lua, how to achieve? |
| 19:41 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> variable spacing? |
| 19:43 |
erle |
luatic so i have this https://git.minetest.land/erlehmann/tga_encoder/src/commit/4d57ba62bf4e499ecadfbd50916e16484a26f86d/donut.lua |
| 19:43 |
erle |
luatic set theta-spacing to 0.01 and the point cloud appears solid |
| 19:43 |
erle |
set phi-spacing to 0.2 and the donut is made out of rings |
| 19:44 |
erle |
now what if i want a thing where the spacing is variable when going around the center of revolution of the torus |
| 19:44 |
erle |
or when going around the cross-sectional circle of the torus |
| 19:44 |
erle |
how to do |
| 19:44 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> you want to change the loop step while looping? |
| 19:44 |
erle |
yes |
| 19:44 |
erle |
so i can have donut which is solid at one end and not at other |
| 19:45 |
erle |
i mean it only appears solid obviously |
| 19:45 |
erle |
it is still a point cloud |
| 19:45 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> i suppose you'll be best of with a while loop + a local variable then |
| 19:45 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> best off* |

everything in games is smokes and mirrors (except smoke, which is particle systems … and mirrors, which is another camera) |

i must confess i made reflections in a level once by flipping it upside down and having transparent texture hehe |
