I don't usually read the wiki so I propaply never saw that

Check out his talk area if you're curious.

Definately.  Alot of the bugs in the program are things like overflows.  In C++, overflows don't get flagged as errors.  They just, well, overflow, basically modding the value.

I've already fixed about half a dozen minor, non-critical ugs during the port of what I have.

Numsgil:
Oh, and this is an anoying bug too:

Dim x as long
dim y as integer
dim z as integer

y = 20000
z = 10000

x = y * 2 - z

will overflow.  That really pissed me off.  Anyway, C++ avoids silly bugs like that.  Thank goodness.

On a more serious note I've got to agree with him on at least some of that. I want to be able to use the new suff for both evo and combat but the platform isn't stable enough right now.

hehehe ;) ...
I can 'almost' remember being 21  ...
but of course that was last century. ;)

I'm not retired ... nor will I ever be able to retire ...
I've always contracted out my services so no retirement plan or anything ...
but then, I consider that I have been semi-retired for the last 32 years ...
having worked less than half of that time ...
when and where I wanted ...
taking as much as two years off at a time to just knock around ...
to go and do whatever it was I wanted to do ...
you know ... the stuff you would like to do but which doesn't pay. ;)
that's just how I'm wired up ...
just a ramblin' kind of guy who likes to see what's around the next
bend in the river or over the next hill  .... just to see it.
so ...
I have no complaints.
I always say ...
"if I'd known I was going to live this long ...
I would have taken better care of myself!"
but of course that isn't true ...
I wouldn't have. :D lol

it's all good lads ...
enjoy your life ...
I figure that's your real purpose/job anyway ...
to live well.
not speaking materialistically now ...
but of simply appreciating the life you live ...
and making the most of it.
it's a gift you know? ;)

hey ...
I'll drop by when I'm in town ...
and have access to the net.

y'all play nice, hear?
