Help me double bind!

[zazumage]

Okay, my server, The Configuration ~Beachwood~, is having some difficulty. Whenver someone plays on it the double bind technique doesn't work! Plz help! i've tried doublebind_time but that hasn't worked! plz help!

[wrtlprnft]

set CYCLE_DELAY to something lower than its current value, but don't send it to 0 or smaller, it will give you very weird effects.

[iceman]

suggest you set cycle_delay to 1 / (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024 etc) as this will help the value to be stored without rounding errors

It's not that bad iceman. Here are several parts of the set of positive IEEE 754 single-precision floating point numbers:

Sorry, read "denormals" as "demoralise"...

Not quite the same meaning there .
