Garry hasn't finished tormenting Rubat, sorry
cloud elbow
yeah i mean if its easy, thats a bonus, luckily my job is pretty easy
but some of them are stressful
zenith hinge
I was invited for a vacancy in programmatic-ad company that has business logic in Lua
IT recruiter found me on fucking stackoverflow lol
cloud elbow
yeah but once you start getting shit on your resume you can work your way up
i have a friend who never went to college who makes almost as much as i do
he did IT -> devops -> SWE
zenith hinge
I have main job and wanted to fill other part of the day
I quit my uni
(but I joined new one because paper with word bachelor written on it is still required on some jobs)
muted dagger
i make 2€/month scamming my classmates on potato chip sales
cloud elbow
uninronically just make some shit on gmod or like roblox for passive income
muted dagger
i love when gmodstore mod that picks up my unban ticket is in the australia time zone or smth
loud flicker
not sure you could still live off gmod income anymore without prior establishment, but roblox is a gold mine if you can stomach it
trail dew
can't you do gmodstore or make a server
Name me an idea for DarkRP server that would shoot, and any other idea that would at least bear with DarkRP playerbase
loud flicker
i'm sketchy on the longevity of any new communities with S&Box Realism infecting younger minds
and maybe it's only the jobs, but gmodstore has dried up a ton recently
muted dagger
yeah i noticed that too
trail dew
The last time I've been to gmodstore, there were model portings (little to do with Lua), developer for hire or some underpaid shit
muted dagger
s&box is more than a year away from release though
trail dew
Lucky
trail dew
I got ghosted by that one job offer I was confident I was able to do
cloud elbow
yes i hired 2 people off gmodstore and dont wanna do more lol
zenith hinge
well I had trust factor: gmod discord mod role
muted dagger
i have had a 0% success rate on gmostore jobs, most stuff i paid for was stolen, didnt work or just bad
cloud elbow
most of my applicants ghosted and the ones who didnt just made unclean code
loud flicker
hire me

you can make more money off of donations form your own server lmao

i was talking to swamp lol

what do you think of this code i made last night https://gyazo.com/bf3d1b7266266d33601e7cce9c9fe3b2
loud flicker
solid, duplicitous IsValid checks but who cares since it's query code
cloud elbow
its mostly about the transaction
im paranoid about people multilogging
on 2 servers
even though i basically only have one 1 server lol
yeah but i wanna be able to expand
i dont think the isvalid is duplicate because it's a callback?
oh nvm i see
loud flicker
ya
cloud elbow
i had a bug 5 years ago where people could multilog and get infinite points by basically sending all their money to a different account on both servers at once so now i write everything with autistic massive transactions like that
anyway ill message you if i can find something for you to do
loud flicker
you could just prevent multirunning so that you wouldn't have to ever worry about it in your transactions
cloud elbow
ill try to find something appropriate and not just "make le retard swep" like i usually tell people to do
loud flicker
darkrp had a good solution iirc
loud flicker
Damn, rulebreaking

but what if! they manage to do something before the system kicks them
trail dew

loud flicker
except for you specifically

don't allow them past your initializer/loader before you verify they are authentic and singular
cloud elbow
i did make this "lock" system where it wouldn't allow queries to affect a player until it like gets a lock on that row sort of but it was complicated and slow
and i found limitations
like if you're doing something with multiple players (trading etc) its not clear how to lock it
or with items/other rows
so now i just basically treat every operation as separate
wintry zealot
no rules in threads
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
loud flicker
that's good if you do ever allow multirun on your servers at least
cloud elbow
i don't, but i am concerned about the second or so between connecting to another server and the first server kicking them
also the website can edit their data
or another server might edit their data
even if they arent logged in (auction/trading shit)
so like, now whenever you buy something it runs this query: UPDATE users SET points=points-? WHERE id64=? AND points>=? and checks affected rows
so you can't buy something unless you have the money, but the check happens on the database
muted dagger
'no rules in threads' time to shitpost
loud flicker
I just wouldn't let them run commands if they haven't been verified as not being logged into another server. I think SUP does this in this network initialisation screen which is just a post-loading screen network loader that artificially keeps players held
cloud elbow
anyway yeah off topic lol
loud flicker
But the website integration is a good reason for being cautious, especially if you ever allow out-of-game trading
muted dagger
cloud elbow
yeah my SQL locker thing would put all the queries into a queue and wait until the player got locked
but i just removed it last night in favor of this sort of "each query is seperate" system
loud flicker
oh that's what you meant by "row locker"
muted dagger
eyo you know where i can find a tutorial for retarded people(me) on using sqlite in gmod?
wintry zealot
hm so lets say you traded items via the website
how do you update the server the player is on
trail dew
Ok, it's too late for my college project, and as long as I wasted my time, I want to waste it completely
cloud elbow
@loud flicker what kind of thing are you most interested in doing, it would be easier for me if it's more client/shared TBH

Does anyone know any techniques that would allow me to efficiently run a sort of master server
?
cloud elbow
how do you update the server the player is on
i put a refresh column in every table, when a row is updated, set it to (SELECT MAX(refresh)+1 FROM table)
trail dew
Does anyone know any techniques that would allow me to efficiently run a sort of...
So, my plan is to make a multiple servers with all players on all servers existing simultaneously
cloud elbow
then on the server, periodically do like SELECT * FROM table WHERE refresh>lastrefresh
wintry zealot
well what are you gonna do, pull refresh every 5s?
trail dew
Ok, I think I'll ask tomorrow
cloud elbow
apparently ur supposed to use redis or some shit for this but i really don't wanna have two databases going so
wintry zealot
what about ie item uses
do you try to delete/update sql first and then do the action?
cloud elbow
it depnds what youre doing
but like do everything in one transaction
its hard to think about sometimes
wintry zealot
i guess stuff that affects economy somehow should be validated through sql
cloud elbow
EVERYTHING MUST BE VALIDATED IN SQL
cloud elbow
i have no idea what the item you described actually is or does
