NUMA should be functional!

[Tempus]

Map submissions are working.
nmaps.net (sans www) is also up and running, so NReality user levels are good to go again.
Editing maps will now update thumbnails.

My brother is awesome.
Lemme know if this is an utter lie or if we broke something.

Goodnight.

[sidke]

nice work your brother

i am curious as to what the issue was

but congrats and good job

It was a relatively small thing, really, and if I'd gotten my ass into gear it coulda been done a while ago. My bad on that, sorry :/

Google's Files API, which was used to upload map images, was deprecated. He just had to transition the site to use Google's cloud storage instead, then tweak some things. That's my understanding of it, at least, which is amateur at best.

Wow! I was in the middle of doing a final project for one of my classes, and I thought to myself, "It's 1AM, let's see if anyone has posted anything on the forums in the last few hours." And oh my goodness did someone post something! I'm so happy about this, I'm hardly gonna be able to focus on my finals for the next few days.

This is fucking great.

nmaps.net without the www works too.

[PALEMOON]

you and your brother have done a fuckin' fantastic job. thank you!!!

[EddyMataGallos]

Holy shit, this is pretty amazing. Thanks man, again compatible with NReality :D

[Losttortuga]

chiiiiiiiill

[lifdoff]

Yessss! Your brother is indeed awesome Tempus, big thanks!

I'll get back to mapping a little more now.

[Vanquish]

This is the best news ever! Your brother is a true champion!!
Hey, I was also wondering if it would be possible to fix the issue with changing avatars.

Glad to see that someone has finally taken the reins. Good stuff.

(I may be many years late on this; maybe the problem has already been fixed)

I eventually found out that you can totally effect title search on nmaps.net using biword tag intersections If you can make hidden tags (and you're comfortable with some restrictions).

We use a subroutine that converts a phrase into a set of tags:

"The fooznytx with some banglezorfs of seelto in barzynshof."

First we strip all of the common articles, prepositions, and conjunctions, i.e. "trivial (meaningless) words".

"fooznytx banglezorfs seelto barzynshof"

Then we make two sets of tags: one consisting of the words, and one consisting of pairs of consecutive words:

the "word tags":
tag:foozntyx tag:banglezorfs tag:seelto tag:barzynshof

and the "biword tags":
tag:foozntyx-banglezorfs tag:banglezorfs-seelto tag:seelto-barzynshof

If there was a map with the name "The fooznytx with some banglezorfs of seelto in barzynshof", we'd store all seven tags -- or 2N+1 tags, where N is the number of non-trivial words in the map title. If someone were to search for "The fooznytx with some banglezorfs of seelto in barzynshof.", we'd only search for the biword tags, tag:foozntyx-banglezorfs tag:banglezorfs-seelto tag:seelto-barzynshof. These three will cut down the search enough that it'd be damn near impossible for the right map not to be in the top results, and it should be the top result whenever the title is nontrivial.

The single-word tags serve a different function. For one, they are obviously going to be used when the search query only contains one "real word". Otherwise, we could let any search query use the old +word search engine syntax for example if I know that vamfzorb and sbuunten are both going to be in the title of a map, but I don't remember the title, I can just search for "+vamfzorb +sbuunten". Phrase / +word combinations can be handled as well.

So even though Google Apps does not support title search directly, it can be made to do so reasonably well as long as you can handle searching up to six tags or so. Hiding the tags from display could be good for aesthetics, but, y'know.

[Tempus]

Van: Yeah! Should be a pretty easy fix.
scythe: That's sick, very clever. I'll pass it on, thank you!
