Checkout git to an existing folder

Some of us forget to setup git in the first place and just type some code first until we realise that it's too far already and there is no versioning exist in our development process. git clone command doesn't allow you clone into an existing folder for it will fail: fatal: destination path '.' already exists and is not an empty directory.

The solution is by git init the current development folder and then remote add to the repository url, after that checkout from there.

Here is how I do it:

cd [destination folder that already have files] git init . git remote add -t \* -f origin <repository-url> git checkout master

Voila, after that you can just add all files into the repo. Don't forget to mind the sensitive files that contains password, secret keys, your server ip, and etc.

Chroma Squad - Light, Camera, Chromatize!

Every child more often happens in boys, will have a dream to become a hero. In 90's there's this TV Shows from SABAN that popular among boys, which is a Power Ranger. This game is made based on that TV Shows, and you as the producers need to hire five stuntmens to act as your rangers. With tactical RPG as its genre you can manage your studio, actors, gears, marketings, fans, even more awesome your own Giant Robot Mecha. Not only that, Chroma Squad offers a Teamwork ability that allows actors to maneuvers that can increase the rating.

Storyline

The game started when five actor from different studio get bored with the director and decide to create their own story, and then they meet Cerebro (Zordon) to start defeat new enemies. There is some event in the game that trigger actors develop their own story for the show.

At first there is tutorial about how to battle against enemies, what option we have to take action, and what is the game mechanic to complete a scene. Most important is we need to understand how to move a ranger and taking use action move (teamwork, skill, attack).

When starting our new studio we will offered contract to start first season of the show, in the contract we will be given budget and targets. We need to achieve number of audiences and manage how to earn money to be used in the next show.

After that we will need to hire some actors and pick their color based on your own liking (this can't be changed later). Pick the actor with your own strategy view carefully their stats, ability, and preferred weapon.

In every episodes we will have Director's objectives that will require actors to do some actions, this will result in bonus reward later in the end of episode. Some of those objectives can be like: - Movement limit - Kill the soldiers then the boss - Always hit the boss - Kill certain soldier in a few turns

You will later have audiences, fans, and with that you will need marketing agency to make the show more known to public. Near last episode of first season we will obtain the Mecha from Cerebro, and that will be overall of this game.

Studio

Studio is the brand of your show, you can change what your studio name here, not only that you can even manage your team transformation, finishing move, and even your own Mecha name. So setup the studio with your own preferences. Not only that you can install upgrade on your studio for add some perks like gain more money, gain more audiences, your actors have more health, and so on.

Actor

Before explaining Chroma Squad's gameplay, first you must pick your own actors. You'll need to be careful because you can't change it later. Each actor have their own perks, stats, ability, prefered weapon, and their own salary so pick them wisely.

Stats

Each actor/actress has their own stats, with this you can strategize how your rangers will use formations or tactics in a battle.

The stats that used in Chroma Squad is:

Attack: Basic attack

Defense: Basic Defense

Movement

Critical

Weapon Damage: Ranger's weapon damage (require transform)

Health

Skill Regen (Skill Cooldown)

Dodge

Counter

Actors will not get experience which means in this game there is no level. So the only way to increase these stats is by upgrade your actors equipment.

Skill

Each actor will has their own skills that usable after they transform into ranger suit. Most of it will help you greatly to complete the Director's Objective easily. There is active and passive skill, you can use the skill by press an icon, but for passive skill it will depends on when the skill trigered or even add some stats.

In using skill we need to decide which actor kill which enemy because there are single target skill and multi-target skill, and using skill have their own range so see how far it will reach before you make a move. Actors have 5 stage of skills which will unlocked in each season.

Equip

Like in any other Tactical RPG games, there are lot of equipment to support actor in battle against evil. Weapon is a must, but you can only use it after you transform. A weapon can also add stats not only weapon damage. There are many kinds of weapon in Chroma Squad like Sword, Pistol, Bow, Spear and Axe. You can change actor equipment in each episodes. New equipment will arrive as we move into second season and so forth. You can buy equipment either in shop or craft it in Craft menu.

Not only weapon the most important in rangers is their suit. Suit is separated from helm, body armor, leggings, and arm. Each of them will also add stats to your actors. Not every actor should wear the same suit parts, be wise to put the best suit for each actor/actress purposes or ability.

Craft

When you not satisfied with items that shop offers, you can also craft equipment from here. First you need the material that is required to build an equipment, when you don't have the necessary material you can open a package or you can craft it from other materials. You can also get materials from unused equipment with "Recycle" menu this will disassemble that equipment and give you some of it's materials with chances (this won't require money).

Battle

There is always a battle in each episode, and that is when we put our tactics to gain more audience which will be converted to money. Each battle always have director's objective, completing these objectives will help you gain more audience.

[image director's objective]

Like every tactic rpg the map will be square and each actor have limited action. Each actor have two actions:

move + attack

move + teamwork

move + move

Audience need to reach a minimum score to enable rangers to transform, this event will make rangers get their suits, weapon and skills enabled. Transforming also made rangers restore their health into full condition. This will greatly decrease the difficulty to finish the episode and also complete the director's objective.

Teamwork

They will also have individual movement range and attack range. To move further you can put a ranger in teamwork mode and there is some yellow square that other ranger can reach with the help of their teammates. Not only that teamwork can be used to do combos damage. When you have a support role that can heal when put in a teamwork mode, this can help you greatly against the crowd with range enemy.

Here's an example of doing a combo: Ranger A is in 3x3 square near an enemy and in teamwork mode, then Ranger B need to be in the range to attack that enemy this will make both ranger A and B attack together. You can do 2 until 4 combo damage. These teamwork combo can also used equipment just make sure the hit is using weapon and it successful (not dodged).

[img finishing move]

This combo is very useful when we try to defeat the boss, until that boss have "Finish it" icon. Finishing move will need 4 ranger in teamwork mode near that boss and last ranger successfuly hit either with equipment or basic attack.

Mecha

In last episode of first season Cerebro will tell us to use Mecha to defeat the enemy ahead. With these we can finally to see the giant battle, the battle is simple there is attack, defend, and skills. We can keep attack until it's dodge. We can upgrade our mecha in each of it's parts like the rangers suit. Upgrading parts will make the Mecha have a new skill, the more skill you have the easier you will defeat that giant enemy.

Messages

After each episode you will get messages from various sources like fans, shop, spammer, or haters. Please do read these messages for sometimes there's cheap equipment that isn't sold at shop, marketing offer with discount, or even crafting. Some of those messages could be spam so ignore this. But you need to reply those message that needs response.

Marketing

As any business would do, your studio will also need marketing process. This will help you gain audience, fans, and income. You can sign on which marketing agencies. Agencies will offer you contract, like how many episodes they will help you and the marketing cost.

Each agencies have different strategy, strategy means what will you gain in each episodes through that marketing. Every strategy will require fans power. This fan power is gained in each episodes and you can managed it into what will advantage you most.

Conclusion

FYI, I've played XCOM, FF Tactics, Front Missions, and many others that I've forgot to mention. And this game is one of the best tactical games that I've ever played. Who doesn't want to be able managed hero, show off some actions, battle with giant mecha, and almost forget the actors funny comments. This game background is so great that help me not to get bored, I even let it open so the background music can still play even when I'm working. So you must try this game, cheers!

Change Keybindings on Markdown Editing Sublime Text 3

If you're a Sublime Text 3 heavy user, especially in editing Markdown using Markdown Editing, you can configure your own shortcut for your speed writing. Here is what I'm changing for my own purpose:

Bold/Unbold : cmd + shift + b

Italic/Unitalic : cmd + shift + i

Headers : cmd + # (1-6)

Inline link : cmd + shift + k

Indent quote : cmd + .

Insert footnote : cmd + shift + 6

And here is how to make it works, you can add codes below in Preferences > Package Settings > Markdown Editing > Keybindings User

Image Manipulator

My friends ask me to create a service/workflow resize image by pixels convert it to .jpg and optimize it using ImageOptim. So the easiest way to achieve this is using Folder Actions in Finder.

Using Automator we can do the scale image and changing file type, for image optimatization we need ImageOptim. Open it so you can call it from shell script. There is two command that able optimize using ImageOptim:

If you don't need XCode then you can use this shell script on Automator:

open -a ImageOptim [folder of images]

e.g: open -a ImageOptim ~/Desktop/Pict

You need XCode and Command Line Interface install ImageOptim CLI using:

sudo npm install -g imageoptim

add this shell script on automator:

/usr/local/bin/imageOptim --directory ~/Desktop/Pict

Here is the example of the Image Manipulator workflow, you can customize it to fit your needs.

Keyboard Maestro looping for x to variable length

We know that Keyboard Maestro can execute script, the question is for what? For me Keyboard Maestro can’t cover looping using for x loop which cause KM unable to use two variable on a looping process. There is where scripts can do more work than the basic actions. KM can execute applescript, shell script, and javascript in specified browser. In this post I will show you how I combine KM and Applescript.

My purpose is to send bulk email using Mail.app to send users their username in a service. So example I have list email to send to, and their username accordingly:

[email protected], abchero

[email protected], defire

[email protected], ghiron

Then what I need to do is to create two variables based on that information. I’m using Sublime Text so it’s easier for KM to get it. Picture below is my macro of “select all emails” and “select all usernames”:

Next is we create a new macro that execute two macro above, prepare the variables for applescript so we can loop it altogether and send it.

And this is when my Applescript working:

set arrLength to "" set eValues to "" set uValues to "" tell application "Keyboard Maestro Engine" set eValues to paragraphs of (get value of variable "emails") set uValues to paragraphs of (get value of variable "usernames") set arrLength to (length of eValues) end tell tell application "Mail" repeat with x from 1 to arrLength set recipientAddress to item x of eValues set username to item x of uValues set theSubject to "your lovely or rubbish subject" set theContent to "Any message you wish to convey " & username set theAccount to "yourpreferredaccount" set theMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {sender:theAccount, subject:theSubject, content:theContent, visible:true} tell theMessage make new to recipient with properties {address:recipientAddress} send end tell end repeat end tell

And voila! You have one KM macro that will help you send bulk email, enjoy..

MySQL Server create remote access

I often forget to do this so I will now post it as a reminder for myself and for those who look into this..

In your server, open mysql application, then use mysql database.

use mysql;

grant all on . TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '[your-password]' with GRANT OPTION;

After granting all database access wherever you are, next thing to do is unbind address in my.cnf file (Ubuntu on /etc/mysql/my.cnf), comment out bind-address:

Here's how to do it in Terminal:

sudo vi /etc/mysql/my.cnf (open and edit file my.cnf with superuser privilege)

/bind (find "bind" word)

press i (begin INSERT mode)

type "#"" (add "#" character before "bind-address 127.0.0.1" this is called comment)

press Escape (finish INSERT mode)

type ":wq" (write and quit)

Voila!

Setting nginx vhost in 10 seconds

After searching to sources on the "cloud", for me the most efficient setup vhost on nginx is by create new config file in /etc/nginx/conf.d/ (Ubuntu, haven't tried others), not by create config file under sites-available and then create link file to there.

Here is what I usually do..

setting up vhost

/etc/nginx/conf.d/ghost.conf

reload nginx service (no downtime)

service nginx reload

Cut-Paste service from Automator [end]

Last time I change logic Cut-Paste, I'm still using shell script to do the work. Now I'm purely using Applescript to do all things.

Cut Service

on run {input, parameters} tell application "Finder" set LF to character id 10 set theSelection to the selection set the clipboard to "" repeat with oneItem in theSelection set pathItem to POSIX path of (oneItem as string) if (the clipboard) is "" then set the clipboard to pathItem else set the clipboard to (the clipboard) & LF & pathItem end if end repeat end tell return input

end run

Move Service

on run {input, parameters} tell application "Finder" set pathItem to POSIX path of (the folder of the front window as text) end tell set paths to paragraphs of (the clipboard as text) repeat with oneItem in paths set oneItem to POSIX file oneItem tell application "Finder" to move oneItem to POSIX file pathItem

form of pathItem end repeat return input end run

With this even if we make a mistake on moving items we can undo it by calling Finder Undo function (cmd + z)

Thanks for the visit! If you have any feature that wished me to make (as long as it possible), contact me!.

Star Trek: Into Darkness is part of Star Trek entertainment franchise that also a sequel of Star Trek, a reboot that main character from original series. Star Trek is a movie about exploring other planets that is led by Starfleet (the space-borne humanitarian and peacekeeping armada of the United Federation of Planets).

After that Jim Kirk and Spock is reinstated in USS Enterprise because the Captain Admiral Pike is dead from the attack. From there Jim Kirk start a quest to find Khan in Kligon and find the truth about all the attack

Positive messages

Some sacrifice and difficult decision is made by Jim Kirk and Spock, it's all made in favor for many not the few.

Positive role model

Jim Kirk acts always prioritizing other first not himself, also he not blindedly follow orders from supervisor, but evaluate from other (his crew) opinions. And Spock always follow the rule that has been made by United Federation of Planets, and of course as a Vulcan he cannot lie.

Violence

When Jim Kirk looking Khan in Klingon, they involved in starship fighting, and laser shooting, also when infiltrating Admiral Marcus ship they need to fight the guard

Sex

There are bed scene is shown after Jim Kirk comeback from planet Niburu and also scene where daughter of Admiral Marcus change clothes in shuttle showing only undergarment

Language

2 Guns review

Story is about DEA Undercover agent Bobby (Denzel Washington) and A.W.O.L NAVY Undercover Stigman (Mark Wahlberg) try to steal a money from cartel. Turns out that money is belong to CIA, both undercover agent realise they were setup from the beginning to be a sacrifice for their supervisor when they succeed stole the money. Struggling in desperate situation, they turntable the condition into their hands.

To parents..

You need to know lots of crime is involved in scenes like, drug trafficking attempt, fake identity deals, robbing a bank, stealing a car, kidnapping and destroying a dine. Well Bobby also impersonating General and blowing the kitchen with leaking gas when he try to escape from Navy base. So education point to your kids to stay away from that kind of business and don't be naive like that things won't come for you.

Positive messages

Don't trust with people too easy, or you can be tricked. And be loyal to those trust you.

Positive role model

Bobby(Denzel W.) and Stigman(Mark W.) is trusting each other even though both knowledge undercover act.

Violence

Well this is an action movie, so gun shooting, car chase, and some torture did appear in the movie.

Sex

Flirting and some nude scene is acted, as they telling the relationship story in the movie.

Language

Not only English but also Spanish curses is spoken in this movie.

Consumerism

'64 Impala convertible, Challenger, and other car brands is used in the movie.

Drink, Drugs, Smoking

Beer and some smoking acts taking appearance.

Conclusion

I love undercover agents movie, for they sacrifice much for ideology they keep. The most fun part is when they win from being used in the time they do undercover. Actions is not overrated and main character is teaching us about loyalty whether relationship or occupation matter. So enjoy it!
