>>174188043
Sorry, I was memeing by saying freedomware, I meant open-source, not pirated.
>>174189087
Little difference, far as I'm concerned. Technically, Spengies is open source.

>>174189130
Well it concerns me, which is why I asked. Also Spengies is not open-source, it is proprietary with source available under a proprietary license. I don't see it advertised as "open-source" on their main website, but their EULA calls itself open-source, which is a mistake. "Open-source" does not refer to "opening your source", it means the software is open to independent development and redistribution.
"Open-source" in software development has a specific meaning: you have to be able to use, modify, and redistribute the software to anybody for commercial or non-commercial purposes.
Terms that make Spengies not open-source:
- Even if you receive the software legally you cannot use it unless you have paid
- You cannot use or redistribute your mods on commercial basis
- Any modifications you make belong to them and they have the exclusive right to redistribute them
And probably other stuff but who wants to read and understand a whole EULA
>>174190559
...right. So why exactly do you care, in any case? Do you plan to compile it with tweaks? Or are you one of those 'tards that only use open source software?

We have reached peak chaos turboprop at 10.6x stack speed and about 850rpm by my estimation. I know for a fact that it doesn't go any faster, because the props just shear off at 10.7x.

Get a mod that tells you the velocity of a block so you can see how fast it goes
If you can get a plane to hit around 30 m/s it will take off
>>174193274
>>174192380
Chaos plane
>>174193274
I don't know what unit this mod measures velocity in, but it feels like a pretty fast plane. It can hit 95 on a dive.
>>174195004
It's probably m/s. That's 342 kph, which is good for a prop plane with that kind of basic engine. Have you tried using 4 blades per engine instead of 2fun fact: prop blades have so much drag you can brake in a dive by cutting engine power
I saw a plane on the besiege forums that used a weird and super compact engine with angled blades and a combination of wheels and spinning blocks, that plane was crazy fast. Kinda hard to fly at high speeds though, it was very twitchy and shaky
>>174191457
Maybe check if there are any /egg/-y mods for MineTest? Minecraft had BuildCraft/IndustrialCraft which are pretty close to being 3D Factorio.
>>174195851
I've been trying to use two blades per engine at the highest possible RPM, because I imagine using more blades might add drag and limit the top speed. It's definitely not possible to use longer blades because those will either shear off or blow the engine.
What do you use for propulsion if not props? Rockets?
>>174192973
Nice strawman. What you did is like saying that factory owners want to pollute and ruin the Earth.
And in any case, selling software licenses isn't the only business model involving developing software, even if it is currently the most profitable.
That it's harder to make money on open-source software is a valid criticism, but I guess unfortunately that doesn't carry as much impact as "Freetards are evil gommies who don't want developers to make money"
>>174196089
Minetest has a mod called Technic for electric machines and things, and pipeworks for item transport, but it doesn't feel as engaging as IC2 somehow. I think it might be that the machines don't have that much depth, but then again early IC2 didn't either. If I'm going to complain though maybe I should be writing mods for MT.
>>174196717
>reddit spacing
ignored
>>174196365
I want my planes to be fast so I tend to use a jet engine block from a mod or vanilla flying blocks with increased thrust so I don't have to use a million of them. Steam rockets and flying blocks are viable but you need a bunch of them to get the bigger/heavier planes airborne let alone achieve decent speeds. I wouldn't need to use modded engines if the scramjet glitch was still a thing
I abandoned propeller engines long ago
>>174197010
I think the new chaos turboprop is your solution.
>>174197010
Oh and yeah firework rockets are an option too but again you need a lot of them to make heavy planes go fast and they have a pretty big disadvantage in that you can't turn them off and they have limited fuel
You can also use a slingshot to launch a plane that can't take off by itself
>>174197245
It has a level speed of around 70 m/s but there's probably still potential in there. I'm putting it up so you guys can fuck around with it.
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=907225826my workshop's also got the gyro-controlled screw stabiliser and the micro pushrod suspension if you need them
>>174197404
That's 0 to 900+ kph in the blink of an eye
Problem is of course that the grabber keeping the plane attached to the springs will likely not resist the brutal tension so it will need god mode

>>174198632
Center of mass and center of lift are a bit unbalanced and it causes the plane to nose up; it's not a huge problem for this plane since those prop engines won't let it stall, but it's bad for flying. Speed is obviously limited by drag caused by the propellers, I told you they wouldn't let you go very fast. I had to tweak the controls a bit too. Also a way to turn the engines off/disconnect engine power from the propellers would be nice.
But keep working on it, it could turn into something cool. If nothing else you can use a few of these engines to make a big-ass airship
>>174199881
But what is it?
How the fuck do I besiege
I got to the level with the wall and my shitty little machine can't go around it and i have no idea how to make anything better
>>174200178
ok /egg/
what yall think of my current lineup of combat ready tanks?
some still need some tweeking/astetics and a good paintjob, but all of them are ready for combat, and initial tests against the aote wf are promising.
>>174200750
one on right is a general hardend battle tank. needs some restructuring and more reactive armor, but it hits well enough.
left is a laser tank, i need to add laser missile defenses still, but it shoots like a dream.
>>174200436
>i have no idea how to make anything better
Well anon that's the point of the game isn't it. Keep trying things, make experiments, learn from failure, eventually you'll make something that works
>>174200967
main heavy battle tank, cram weapons, and a shitload of armor, heavy armor is underneath the outer shell in most places.
>>174200178
I've never seen one before, no one has, but I'm guessing it's a white hole.
>>174201134
railgun tank.
needs more future shit on it, maby a shield and maby lighten it and make it a shade faster, turn it into a sniper.
>>174200163
Yeah, they seem to have a ton of lifting power.
>>174201324
I don't know if prop blades have the same lift characteristics as wing panels, but panels start providing lift at around 30 m/s depending on the angle of attack and these prop blades are obviously moving way faster than that so yeah, the plane won't go very fast but it won't stall either. With prop engines you can basically just point the plane 90 degrees up and climb.
>>174201314
and finally my super heavy seige tank.
the fucker is stupid, its more of a hardend artillery unit than tank. slow as shit to aim too. but if i remove the fire rate limit it can unload 150 some odd 500 gauge medium length rounds in about 20 seconds. but i really only use it like a giant artillery canon.
>>174200178
It's an inflato-hab, the idea being that you could use them in lieu of the more heavily armored habs in relatively low-radiation environments to dramatically reduce cost and weight, which are both pretty decisive factors in space travel at the moment.
Reminder that it's not STEAM, not even STEM, that makes the world turn: It's S&M.
>>174200750
Pretty cool tanks, Anon. Reminds me that I still need to get back on my hovertanks

absolute madman, please carry on
>>174205781
well, considering it shoots a whole 2 tiles across the world map yeah. if only ftd could do good transformation.
>>174205847
the lazer tank is the best ive got atm, i tried making a armored aa vehicle, but its turret keeps getting stuck and its aim is fiunky. probobly gonna make a standard AA with missile silo later.
right now i need to focus on making a decent air force, as all i have is a small attack heli and a bomber, my scramjet is old and obsolete as hell.
>>174206558
What's the CLANG potential for those?
>>174206658
Its filed with holes, so it needs a rebuild, but the original has a u shape to move the gun and the gunner with it, and on each side the rotors to hold the top of the turret sides.
all this sits on a rotor held by wheels with 0% and 0% travel on a specific offset to absorb some wobble of its weight.
if i could fit the rotors lower and even remove the gunner, would have more room to work, and even make it survive some hits.
Most tanks can be 1 hit killed by missiles if the tonks are not sanic fast.
>>174206819
Is there a way to have a portable SAM?
Or a bed of ground to Air missiles ready to be launched or specially aimed to them with wheels.
>>174207257
Shame that seats cant control via antenna another grid, so i could RC missiles with it.
But they make the best packed interiors when combined with rotors.
>>174207257
>Is there a way to have a portable SAM?
Well the Mars escape world scenario has them.
>>174207783
>Shame that seats cant control via antenna another grid, so i could RC missiles with it.
Not sure what you mean here. You can control antennas with seats as long as they have a remote control.
>>174196717
>even if it is currently the most profitable.
Say that again. Slowly.
Businesses exist to make money. People work at businesses to make money for the buisness, which gives them an agreed upon amount of money per hour or on a salary. People buy software because they want it. If they can get it without paying, legitimately, they will not go out of their way to pay for it. Those that donate to free projects are those that have sufficient disposable income. Quite a few of us aren't bleeding cash from every orifice.
>Nice strawman.
Now go back to /g/ or some relevant subreddit.
>>174208654
I mean a portable SAM in FtD.
In spengos a small portable missile printer will be for long distances arty attacks, its what im trying to build now.
When you are on a seat, even controling a RC inside a grid with also an antenna, you cant remote control something that its floating in front of you.
When you are on a cockpit, you can.
The thing is that you cant make a tonk this small with a 3x3x3 box in it but you lose that in exchange.

>When you are on a seat, even controling a RC inside a grid with also an antenna, you cant remote control something that its floating in front of you.
I still don't get you.
>>174211847
You can't do this.
They won't even show up on the list directly, you need to navigate through the remote access button to get to the terminal, and then the control button on the RC is unaviable.
With a regular cockpit you can do it.
>>174206819
well, i usually put a few vertical launch missiles in my stuff that cant shoot straight up, but a mobile missile silo is pretty basic
Catfucker jailed when?
>>174214803
Why do you even mention him? Do not bring up the accursed ones
>>174209273
yeah, a shitload of player and prebuilt stuff have missile silos. there is even one premade that you can find and spawn in the main missile building tab, as an example for newbies

Or with a wheel railgun to spit them at cap speed instantly.
I was planing on hiding some warhead RC missiles as fuel tanks in the back of this tank, and control them when launched, but since i can't, unless i find a good gps missile guide script to replace it, they are gone, maybe a simple mod of the autopilot, but since it has only 1 thruster, it may need some tweaks.

>>174225824
>>174215595
you think thats bad? most of my ships are nothing but a fat engine, weapons, and armor.
there are no exposed or unprotected segments whatsoever, and most of my ships need propellers to stay afloat because they are essentially dens piles of gun and a power source, and have no boyancy whatsoever.
hell, although this thing http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=555000561
is obsolete due to weapon component limits(how many individual parts a single weapon system can be comprised of, somewhere in the thousands for most) and it needed old engines to power its lasers and shields, back when i made it out of the old darkstar, its was ridiculous, and could annihilate several godly class scarlet dawn command ships simultaniously
Ok so I learned how to railgun. Reduced rail charge time from 8.8 to 3.8 secs by replacing the excess magazines and loaders with chargers and removing all the coolers since you don't need them no gunpowder casings, also freeing up room for chargers. Removing most of the propellers has increased the speed somehow and the torpedoes/missiles only fire when there are appropriate targets to save material. Primary rangefinder has been moved for A e s t h e t i c s

Besides being a blatant self-promotion by Audi, the car in I, Robot has spherical wheels (omni-directional).
What would be the best way to make this work, keeping in mind the technology in the movie is mainly based on very strong materials rather than magical forcefields or anything like that?
>>174234546
The problem lies in supplying torque to the "wheels"
>I Robot is a good movie f
"No"
>>174234546
Secondary drives that apply torque to the balls. Three per wheel, it would be much easier to simply drive the car with wheels that could crab-drive, as swerve drives aren't particularly useful for cars.
>>174234546
how do the ball "wheels" actually look like tho?
are they the hexagon pattern visible in your pic?
one actually posible possibility, tho its practicality its low, its mecanum wheels transfering power to the ball "wheels", and using a differential to separate the momentum for the 2 axes, practicality its low because you would be using friction to transfer momentum to the ball "wheels", and the incresed amount and space needed by the extra moving parts
>>174210771
>glad you liked (?) it.Eh, I think it's not great as far as planes go, but that's just cause I like fast planes that fly smooth and nice, and yours isn't any of these things
Steam rockets will give you more speed and better control than stacked saws but that assembly looks too big and heavy to be useful in a plane
>>174235613
>>174236581
If we discover room temperature superconductors we can turn them "wheels" with electromagnetic pulses
Obviously that's a pipe dream like FTL travel
Just realized the tiny jet I made looks a lot like a smaller, simpler version of this other jet I made a ages ago
Smaller, significantly lighter, somewhat slower, not as smooth in flight and without VTOL capability

RTC isn't a pipe dream though, it's more of a gamble. It's not at odds with thermodynamics or relativity, but it's up to matsci and chemists if we can actually discover the fucking things.

Make it the location of a techno fortress. That terrain is godly for defensive structures. Have a massive tower in the center connected to a bunch of pillars that go down into each hole.

I'm looking for a new engineering game. Just finished playing some Space Engineers and I love it but its just too buggy in multiplayer for me and singleplayer is also pretty bad on the bugs side. I was looking at starmade and Empyrion a bit, are they any good? I played a ton of factorio and space engineers if that defines my tastes a bit.
>>174275134
zero engineering in Empyrion. It's just a survival building game.
>>174275134
your taste is almost a microcosm of /egg/, which sadly means none of the EA shitfests out there will satisfy you
Anyone mirror Avorion forum attachments yet?
>>174275134
No one can choose your taste for you.
Download skubmade and pirate empyrion before you commit to buying and find out, starmade is free until it leaves early access, demo on steam is full game.
But I don't think either of them will really satisfy that autism.
I'm starting to think that this is going out of hand

Hipsters wouldn't know how the fuck to operate it or get any additional software onto it. That thing was picked up by a salvage hawk probably no later than half an hour after I left when I saw it. If you've never been to a goodwill with a tech center you'll quickly realize that shit gets watched like a hawk for anything worth nabbing, whether in working order or for parts. Learned my lesson, not letting another find like that slip from my grasp again. I felt like a giddy idiot when I saw the lights come on and a CMOS error popped up before booting to DOS.

In space they are actually more protective than metal because of the 10 layers of shit a micro meteoroid would have to pierce through to do damage, 3-4 of them being kevlar. Each layer breaks up the rock more and more via a spaced armor effect and in the end is much safer than a metal habitat ignoring the radiation part of it.

Reddit requires a blank line between quoted lines (which use >, same as here) and normal text. It ignores single newlines and does quoting by paragraphs, so if you write ">abc" and then "def" on the very next line, you get one quoted paragraph with the text "abc def". So if you see someone putting extra blank lines after quoted text for no reason, they're probably a heavy Reddit user.
Of course, nowadays people seem to call "reddit spacing" on anyone who puts blank lines between paragraphs at all. Which is ridiculous because that's been a common way to format 4chan posts for ages.
>>174298382
what is that picture?
I saw it posted a lot, but I dont know what it refers to
>>174295594
It's hard to read and speaks of low literacy levels, at least to me.
They claim it improves readability, but that's why you use paragraphs and proper sentences.
Text walls are just as unreadable as double spaced nonsense.
I just mock them for being unread retards.
Apparently has something to do with the way reddit formats posts or something.
Does anyone know how to get workshop "scenarios" working on Space Engineers? Not worlds. I tried using the oldest version Steam would let me and it didn't work.

>>174295594
its not a reddit thing, but when overused its kinda dumb.
its more about creating implied verbal quirks and brakes, or breaking up what you are saying into distinct separate chunks to keep ideas or statements "separate" from each other.

It's just another thing that's been cooked up to 'expose' outsiders. Modern 4chan runs on neo-McCarthyism.
>>174303002
You realize mccarthy was not only right but severely underestimated the amount of communist infiltration?
Keeping outsiders out is good, best way would just be to have a faux chan then have the actual one be accessable in a manner similar to sadpanda.
>>174303173
>You realize mccarthy was not only right but severely underestimated the amount of communist infiltration?
neo-McCarthyism is doing the same thing but completely tilting at windmills. Modern 4chan is literally obsessed with outing someone as an untermensch and drive them out. They will look for the most obtuse signs or evidence that the most far-fetched logic can provide for the slightest bit of justification to label you a ledditor or something and have you removed.
>>174303173
yeah but people are lazy.
only maby half actually knew jack about communism, and only a handful of those would have tried to spread it.
like really, anyone can say the are communist.
>>174303419
That sounds like something a ledditor would say
>>174303419
Which is good because there are no systems on place to protect it.
At least 2^3chan, despite being a heaping pile of shit, is delisted from google.

No, it's not good. I keep having to change the way I post just because some faggot who ought to have been asleep at the time thought he figured out a new way to pick out redditors posting.

Crafting is still there, and very grindy, but they got rid of the repair/durability system. So now at least when you craft a part, youll have it forever, unless you use that part to craft another higher tier part.
Ill still have alot of fun with the game when ti goes open beta. Its grindy, but I dont mind that when I get to fuck around building madmax cars.

Will there be, maybe not in the base game but possibily through modding, a way to make custom weapons?
Like, if all the weapon stats are written in a file, could be possible to hack together a extra menu where a ChODE-like creation system receives input from the player and then output a extra entry to the weapon data file?
This doesn't mean "have the weapon editor by default" as the whole thing would be mod content, the question is "will be the game open enough to modding to allow that"?
>>174342212
We're looking into having the stats editable from an xml file. Seems at least possible, if only for rapid balancing tweaks. No reason you couldn't just change everything in your own file, I suppose. Granted, the models wouldn't change. If you have such a need for custom weapons why not just play chode or FTD?

>If negative mass exists, you can throw a bunch of mass and the same quantity of non-mass through some portal shit and the universe mass shouldn't change. which is the answer to the one theorical problem to worm hole stabilisation and travel.
But if i went through the wormhole without negative mass the amount of mass in the universe shouldn't change either since the mass "lost" at one point of the wormhole is compensated by mass "gained" at the other end

I'm going to do the worst thing ever and quote Wikipedia :
> The equations of the theory of general relativity have valid solutions that contain wormholes. The first type of wormhole solution discovered was the Schwarzschild wormhole, which would be present in the Schwarzschild metric describing an eternal black hole, but it was found that it would collapse too quickly for anything to cross from one end to the other. Wormholes that could be crossed in both directions, known as traversable wormholes, would only be possible if exotic matter with negative energy density could be used to stabilize them.
Basically they need it to maintain the hole open.
>>174348065
>Wormholes have anything to do with parallel universes
Dude wormholes are spacetime continuum anomalies, not magic gateways. Even if they could allow us to travel through time (which they could), the principe of casuality makes it impossible to deviate from whatever ever happened.
>>174348646
Nothing bad with quoting Wikipedia for scientific stuff.
Social stuff is another story.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiva_Star
>Shiva Star was also used to develop an experimental weapon known as MARAUDER for the SDI effort between 1989 and 1995. The idea appears to have been to create compact toroids of high-density plasma that would be ejected from the device using a massive magnetic pulse.[2] The plasma projectiles would be shot at a speed expected to be 3000 km/s in 1995 and 10,000 km/s (3% of the speed of light) by 2000. A shot has the energy of 5 pounds of TNT exploding. Doughnut-shaped rings of plasma and balls of lightning exploded with devastating thermal and mechanical effects when hitting their target and produced pulse of electromagnetic radiation that could scramble electronics, the energy would shower the interior of the target with high-energy x-rays that would potentially destroy the electronics inside. The tests cost a few million dollars a year.[3] The project become classified and may or may not have been scrapped at some time after 1995 because of problems keeping the plasma projectiles stable for the distances required by orbital weaponry.

>"With negative mass, if you push something, it accelerates toward you."
Let's say you poke a ball of negative mass.
Doing so will accelerate it towards your finger.
This means the force your finger exerts on the ball increases, so the ball will accelerate more towards your finger.
The implication is that touching negative mass results in a nasty wound.
Am I getting this right?
>>174354113
I'd say, that since negative mass would result in negative gravity, the ball of negative mass would make it slightly harder to poke it. How much? Negligible until you reach cosmological scale.
>>174352895

>>174357016
Like the movie Tremors, but plasma pulse rifles.
>>174356275
Lemme think a bit:
m1=5kg
m2=-5kg
r=1
G assumed to be 1 for ease of calculation as the exact value of the force is not needed to determine the direction of motion
F=G*(m1*m2)/(r*r)
F=1*(5*-5)/(1*1)
F=-25
F=m*a
-25=m1*a
-25=5*a
a=-5
-25=m2*a
-25=-5*a
a=5
Not really sure if this means they chase each other or they repel.
Since in normal circumstances (two positive masses) they both have a positive acceleration and they go toward each other i'd say that is the latter (ie: chase with constant acceleration)
Flying without vertical stabilizers is fun

What if there was a universe with anti-gravity instead of gravity?

Dark energy would be an inward force instead of an outward one. The force of anti-spacetime would force matter into whiteholes, perfectly reflective rings of matter that light can't actually ever touch.

Of course there would be a way to power up the chaos turboprop and nearly double the flight speed. It's almost on par with steam jets now.

>>174359935

>>174401179
Also you can totally land one of these things now. Just detach the prop blades and coast down.
I also figured out how to throttle a chaos engine without using collision. Instead of a fireball, you can put a variable governor on the free end. Spread the governor to slow it down, retract to speed it up. Sadly, the turboprop just spins too fast for anything mechanical to stay attached apart from grippers.

Not sure jet stabilizers are going to cut it. I still need to add two more gun turrets on the back corners. I don't get it, the black swan floats easily and it is has way more weight in the back end.
>>174421258
That's the last resort. It feels dirty and cheaty using botes that can't actually float without assistance.
>>174421370
The outrigger pods are quite small, that's probably the problem, combined with the heavy armor turret on the back. That's a shame it's so sleek right now it would be a shame to fatten the ass up. It's probably necessary since it's already sinking without the two rear corner turrets installed.

No idea, but i'd say that mars starting colonies would have an atmosphere as sterilized as possible, so in the long turn, the humans in there would end up with weakened inmune systems. My bet is on ~60 years if the two population groups are earth and mars and both are 100% separated

IF you don't have the radiation protection on mars for your electronics, then you've got more problems than just the PC not working, like the CO2 scrubber.

That's why they are hardened you dolt! The reason why you can't simply take any PC into orbit for a spin and have it work flawlessly is because both radiation and charged particles (solar wind mostly) go and interact with the stuff on the mobo where data is transferred or elaborated then you have a problem since most PCs don't have a beefy, redundant system for detecting and correcting errors at that level. It's not checking the CRC in a .pdf file and correcting the error, is keeping the whole thing in check and make sure that in a register a 0 wasn't knocked into a 1 while the ALU was in the middle of doing it's thing

You do realize that our galaxy is about 100,000LY across right? As it stands, we have to rely on the effects of gravity on stars, or minute fluctuations in their light to predict just the placement of exoplanets. Seeing any kind of features on an exoplanet, let along seeing anything smaller, is a pipe dream. Our radio bubble only reaches out about 200LY, 1/500th the MW, a single pixel in a 1000x1000 rendering.
Unless ayys stumbled upon our rock, any ayys that might be out there have no idea we're here, and unless there's an advanced civilization on our doorstep, within a few thousand LY, there's no way we're going to see or hear anything going on.

Nigga the future of space belongs to the dorfs. The cheapest most productive construction is going to be underground. Naturally air tight( or add a coat of glue), natural rad resistance, natural temperature control, piles of resources, and so on. Land habitats are only viable for landing or solar power.
>>174479594
You do understand that in order to excavate anything you need to move stuff to the surface? so unless we invent a drill that's part vacuum cleaner and ejects stuff the the surface through a hole in an airtight membrane, underground will have to be done in one go in a pressurized TBM and then sealed properly forever with no further expansion.

Gentlemen, how do we do closed-loop altitude control in vanilla Besiege?
I did attitude control with gyro-controlled screws before, but measuring orientation is ezpz. On the other hand, there are few if any non-contact ways of measuring altitude. My bet is on the mechanism in pic related: the ground-spray from a water cannon deflects a balanced screw if it's too close to the ground, making it do... something. Not much ride height or linearity, but it should be sufficient for hovertonks.

I've been away for a few months, so sorry if any of these ideas are old news. This is an early version, it will have a few more things added and then get a hull.
First up, the wings are on turn blocks and the PC is on a turret. That way we can pack more into a small space (the engine and PC "overlap," preventing the PC turret from turning but don't really care about that). The reduced drag from not calculating the wings gives it a max speed of 200m/s in the air, 45m/s underwater.
PC bombers seem pretty effective, although this one needs a much bigger engine. Set the charge time to 10 seconds and fiddle with the accuracy settings (you'll be no more than 400m away when you shoot), and you can destroy or disable most targets very quickly.

It's kinda fun to watch a half-built experimental bomber destroy an expert design that costs ten times as much in 2 seconds.Plus I spent 3 months in basic training dreaming up the most retarded designs possible and now have roughly a week to pump them out before I have to report for more training

Because of the job I get, worst-case scenario is free top secret clearance (costs most people thousands of dollars), fantastic training, learn a new language and every vagina this side of the Mississippi River, all in return for 5 years of work.
