i know this has been suggested for sooooooooooooo many times, but i really think we need it.
(i also know some ppl who stopped playing algodoo/phun for not having it)

multi-core support

More and more people are having multiple CPU cores in their computers, which are unused by algodoo / phun.
Also, there are even people with 8 cores inside their computer, where only one gets used by algodoo / phun.

Why leave all this processing power unused, and have lagg, when we have more available??

Advantages of multi-core:
More processing power
parallel calculating (seeming most calculations inside algodoo aren't dedicated to the previous calculation (within the same step))

Disadvantages for single-core users:
There will be a little bit of more lagg (because there are a bit more lines of coding for those also...)

Then why'd you post it? You know they're working on it. I'm pretty sure they've said that before. Seriously, use your common sense.

yeah, like they said the phunland forum wasn't gonna be closed, and they are saying there's going to be multicore support since version 3.5 or so... So, on that part, i don't believe them that much...

apart from that, they're ding a good job ;)

Chronos they need to know there is a demand. Yes, it is obvious for you that there is a demand for multi-core throughout the community but you are 9.19% of the community.

I'm pretty sure they know people want multi-core support.

i also know they are experimenting with GPU processing, so i guess, they will insert multi-core support in about 1 or 2 updates before that...

Euhmmm... Chronos, i think WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THIS IDEA , BUT NOT ABOUT THAT HOW MANY TIMES IT WAS POSTED BEFORE!!!


Noone wants UNCONSTRUCTIVE CRITICS, like you.

If you think that re-posting is a kind of spam, i think you made with your bad and useless comments more spam than any spambot.
And alot more than someone that wants to memorize forgotten idea...


If you're 9,19% of the comunity, it must be 9,2% of the community stupid.

Alright! It's time to play "Let's Correct Kutis and Make Him Look Like an Idiot"!

Wow! Bold and red! If that doesn't say "immature," I don't know what does! But really, if it's been suggested as many times as it has, it's already been talked about.

I wasn't being a critic at all, actually.

Kutis 96 wrote:If you think that re-posting is a kind of spam, i think you made with your bad and useless comments more spam than any spambot.

Reposting is spam when you know you're reposting and it's useless to try. Also, you need to learn what spam really is.

Kutis 96 wrote:And alot more than someone that wants to memorize forgotten idea...

Well, Algoryx has already said they're working on it, so the idea wasn't forgotten.

Kutis 96 wrote:If you're 9,19% of the comunity, it must be 9,2% of the community stupid.

That made absolutely no sense.


Seriously, Bronie admitted that this had been posted before, yet he still did it. Algoryx knows about it. Bronie admitted his mistake. Everything was fine until you came along. Seriously, Kutis, you won't win against me, so just stop trying.

I think Kutis hates Chronos, now he's not the only one (I think), but Kutis even bumps topics to show that he hates Chronos.
And then Chronos lets Kutis look like an idiot, so Kutis hates him even more!
It's a kind of perpetum mobile, so this would actually never stop, it can only be less.

Yeah, that's true. But it could be stopped. I know some ways...

Some are just for only one talk and then it will be good and some are a bit brutal 8-) :lol: ... I prefer the first way :thumbup:

Mystery said that you were 9.19% of the community. Kutis suggested that 9.19% of the community was stupid. Therefore, he suggested you are stupid.

Even though he never said which 9.2% of the community is stupid. :lol: Since he didn't actually specify it was me, I'm thinking he's talking about the spambots and trolls.

Even if he suggested a random 9.2% of the community was stupid you would receive to biggest portion of the stupid.

Well to be honest, he didn't really word it correctly. Still, he shouldn't call people stupid if he doesn't even know what spam really is. :P

Here i have 3 people
o O .
Bob Terry Nick

If 10 percent of the lot of them was stupid, Nick would have the least amount of stupid and Terry would have the most.
This is assuming people aren't integers :) this is a nice example of a logical fallacy, right?

Multicore support for the win. It would be REALLY nice to get some external cores and make a hige a$$motherfu***** simulation of the time :D
