Re: [Eighthfleet-development] Succesful Windows Port

I tried math.h and it still couldn't find a defenition.  Didn't think of limits.h, though.  I'll give that a try tomorrow when I work on the presentation.

Right now, as of ~10pm I'm happy with the game code (finally, there were some pretty heinous bugs still lurking in what I thought was good stable framework code), and I'm really going to try to write a primitive GA for finding an optimal position to be at to destroy an enemy ship.

under windows. The value has to exist because it's a real state of the FPU 
processor that needs to be referenced and defined. You can't have a complete 
FPU instruction set without it.
