02:05 <xShadowx> i just had a thought......MM doesnt remove confignodes from database that belong to patches right? hense being able to patch a patch, but when MM runs a patch it has to loop all the confignodes including those that belong to patches, right? thus having more mods would add not only parts/patches to apply, but patches slowing the application of patches, right?

02:08 <xShadowx> so unless im horribly wrong which is possible ;p the question becomes is patching patches a value? and if not, a chance to gain speed - though only first run, as cache would then apply

02:09 <blowfish> xShadowx: it's occurred to me before, I think you might gain a bit of speed

02:09 <Qboid> blowfish: NathanKell left a message for you in #RO [12.08.2017 06:34:29]: "I think we need to release a new RF for 1.2. The current release makes many things unuseable. I suggest directly forking from the last release, reverting those two commits, and releasing that. Sound ok?"

02:10 <xShadowx> though i would still like to know if its possible to save the part database to a file, basicly skipping MM / confignode parsing to begin with :|

02:10 <blowfish> not sure, you're serializing a lot of stuff

02:10 <xShadowx> which itself should in theory gain much more speed

02:10 <xShadowx> ah

02:12 <xShadowx> i think id be more concerned at all the refs laying around :|

02:25 <NathanKell> xShadowx: No. THe slowdown is unity instantiating stuff.

14:58 <Korhaka> with module manager, if a line says 'resourceNames =MetallicOre;Uraninite' and I want to add a resource 'cookies', would I just use @resourceNames = cookies

14:59 <Korhaka> along with the @PART[PartName] and @MODULE[ModuleName] lines

15:33 <Korhaka> no, that adds rather than replaces

15:33 <Korhaka> replaces rather than adds*

16:35 <xShadowx> Korhaka: @resourceNames ^= :$:;cookies: <- uses regex to add it, not sure if another way

16:47 <Korhaka> considered just adding a new part for it instead now tbh

16:48 <Korhaka> as its trying to add compatability from several different mods to another

16:48 <Korhaka> instead just add a part for each one instead is what i think ill go with

20:16 <soundnfury> Does string.Substring() produce garbage?

20:16 <soundnfury> (If strings are implemented well, it shouldn't, but just checking)
