Ol' Human McGee

Cable on 2009/05/02 23:36 of Python Space

The Singularity Came.

All humans uploaded their minds into perfect robotic bodies that will never age. No old-fashioned humans remain...

...except for Ol' Human McGee.

He stubbornly refuses to upgrade. Not only that, he has declared War against the Upgraded Ones!

His manifesto reads more or less like this:

"So you young whippersnappers with your fancypants robotic bodies think you are better than me, with my old-fashioned flesh and bone, huh?"

"You'll see! You'll all see! I shall kick you all out of this great big lawn called Earth, using only my human, flesh'n blood body!"

"All right, all right, my cybernetically enhanced body! But still, beneath all this metal'n wires I still have a human brain! And I'll prove to you once and for all that being only 64% machine ought to be enough to anybody!"

With these words, and lots and lots of missiles, Ol' Human McGee began his War Against the Upgraded.

@claxo: I had the same problem. Fixed it by adding

OpenGL.GL.glDisable( OpenGL.GL.GL_NORMAL_ARRAY )

in draw_rectangle().

hey cyhawk, thanks!!! Worked for me.

And being a little unresponsive, later I added a factor *2.5 to the time-flow (at the the end of game.py). Much better here.
