And there are cases when Linux tends to not always give the same number to the same interface on each startup. 12:44:34 <Brianetta> /etc/sysconfig/networking in Fedora lets you add arbitrary config, too 12:44:54 <Brianetta> Those cases usually involve hit-pluggable interfaces. 12:45:00 <Brianetta> er, hoot-pluggable 12:45:04 <Brianetta> damnit 12:45:07 <Brianetta> ones you can unplug 12:45:07 <SpComb> heh 12:45:21 * SpComb unplugs Brianetta's PCI ethernet NIC 12:45:36 <Brianetta> Don't pop my motherboard 12:45:43 <fjb> Yes, that kind of interfaces, but it tends to give them different numbers even if they get never unplugged. 12:46:13 <Brianetta> If they're USB, for example, and other USB devices get added and removed, the USB system gets ennumerated differently. 12:46:17 <SpComb> I encoutered that with xen + ubuntu, it had two vif's that were, for some reason, named as eth2 and eth1 (in that order) 12:46:30 <SpComb> but they worked correctly as eth0 and eth1 on the debian vms 12:46:35 <fjb> Even without adding other devices that tends to happen. 12:46:44 <SpComb> took a bit of debugging to figure out that the two interfaces were the wrong way around 12:46:55 *** Sacro [Ben@adsl-87-102-119-5.karoo.KCOM.COM] has joined #openttd 12:47:10 <Brianetta> fjb: For a firewall, I'd recommend not using interfaces that might initialise in arbitrary order, then 12:47:20 <Brianetta> Either that, or write your config manually 12:47:21 <SpComb> FreeBSD has it's pluses, but not being able to configure address-less interfaces in linux is *not* one of them 12:48:43 <fjb> Configuring address-less interfaces on Linux involves a lot of custom things prone to errors or being forgotten when changing the network configuration. 12:49:13 *** FauxFaux_ is now known as FauxFaux 12:49:40 <SpComb> perhaps your issue is comparing freebsd against linux as a whole, and not considering that there are different distros 12:49:54 <SpComb> configuring address-less interfaces on *BSD is probably kind of error-prone and custom-things as well 12:50:42 <fjb> I tried Suse and Ubuntu. Didn't want to spend my time on trying the same thing on all that distributions out there to find the one that behaves different. 12:51:27 <SpComb> I was looking at OpenBSD's pf (or at least its man pages) last week, it looked pretty neat 12:51:28 <fjb> No, it is configured as all the other interfaces, you only neave the address blank. 12:51:56 <fjb> pf is really neat. FreeBSD has pf too. 12:51:59 <SpComb> presumeably better than what iptables has to offer 12:52:36 <fjb> iptables has nice features but is very hard to configure. 12:52:38 <SpComb> iproute does the n-addresses-per-interface thing quite well, you have separate `ip addr` and `ip link` subcommands 12:52:59 <SpComb> I've stopped using ifconfig and route alltogether 12:53:10 <SpComb> they could be deprecated for all I care 12:53:39 <fjb> More than one address per interface should be no problem for any Unix like systen out there. 12:53:59 <SpComb> yes, although with ifconfig they're silly things like eth0:2 12:54:13 <Brianetta> SpComb: route would be deprecated except that it's a POSIX command 12:54:28 <peter1138> Ammler, 10 minutes? :o 12:54:52 <Ammler> a guess, maybe more :-) 12:54:56 <fjb> That is only the case with Linux. ifconfig on other systems doesn't assign that silly names. 12:55:06 <SpComb> *shrug* 12:55:07 <Brianetta> I use ip for all permanent stuff, but ifconfig and route for dynamic stuff, since it usually involves less typing 12:55:28 <Maedhros> Ammler: try 2, and this computer is nearly 5 years old :p 12:55:34 <SpComb> `ip -6 ad sh dev eth0` is pretty concise 12:55:38 <peter1138> Hmm 12:55:56 <Brianetta> concise, but not as easy to type. 12:56:02 <peter1138> Just took me 38 seconds including a make clean... 12:56:12 <Ammler> well, I take the time :-) 12:56:15 <Brianetta> Easier to select and paste (: 12:57:22 <fjb> So what is "ip -6 ad sh dev eth0" exactly doing?

Hmm. 19:25:57 <DaleStan> Unless there are Windows grfs that use the pinks. 19:26:19 <peter1138> Get your spanner out! 19:26:20 <DaleStan> I know MB uses the pinks, but I think he uses pinks that appear in both palettes. 19:26:22 <LordAzamath> are there? 19:26:28 <LordAzamath> hmm k 19:27:28 <DaleStan> On the other hand, the pinks are too similar for me to visually distinguish them. 19:27:46 <peter1138> 212, 0, 212 19:28:42 <frosch123> You cannot automatically convert between dos and windows grfs when the grf supplies his own recolor sprites that remap pink.

I have a feeling it did actually just bend. 20:47:39 <peter1138> TTDP has that option too. 20:48:35 <fjb> Does that save him some drawing? 20:49:00 <peter1138> No. 20:49:02 <Eddi|zuHause> no, it's just a single flag to set... 20:49:02 <frosch123> the car transporter in the serbian rail set is an articulated wagon 20:49:23 <peter1138> It makes it look prettier, but MB has in the past based his sprite lengths on the 29 pixel length. 20:49:38 <peter1138> This is why some of the shorter wagons have massive gaps between them. 20:49:42 <peter1138> (In game) 20:50:05 <Eddi|zuHause> i think he once said he intended to use 32px in version 0.9 20:50:31 <Eddi|zuHause> but my memory might be vague there 20:50:39 <Rubidium> peter1138: the NewGRF config saving works for me 20:50:48 <peter1138> :o 20:50:54 <frosch123> maybe we should bundle dbset 0.9 with ottd 1.0 20:51:03 <fjb> :-) 20:51:05 <peter1138> Preset saving works, just not the current config. 20:51:22 <peter1138> frosch123, no, ottd 1.0 would never get released ;) 20:51:33 <fjb> So what scale should one use when starting a new train set? 20:51:39 <glx> peter1138: after game start? 20:51:43 <Rubidium> the TTD game scale 20:51:48 <peter1138> 32 pixels now. 20:51:56 <Eddi|zuHause> the not-george-scale 20:52:00 <peter1138> 32 happens to divide into 1/8ths easily too. 20:52:52 <peter1138> 4 pixels is the base unit for wagon length. 20:53:10 <fjb> Yes, long vehicles like modern coaches have to be out of scale shortened that way. But width and height should the vehicles have? 20:53:34 <peter1138> 8 pixels wide and 12 pixels high I think it is 20:53:54 <fjb> Short vehicles can be in 4px steps be shorter than the full 32px length? 20:54:06 <Eddi|zuHause> catenary is 11 pixels high i thought 20:54:09 <peter1138> Yes. 32px - 28px - 24px, etc 20:54:18 <peter1138> Eddi|zuHause, yes. We draw that incorrectly :p 20:54:23 <fjb> Down to 4px minimum? 20:54:24 <Rubidium> peter1138: but I tested saving the 'current' config and that works for me 20:54:40 <peter1138> Minimum is something like 12px due to wagon-following-tricks. 20:55:05 <fjb> What is the wagon-following-tricks? Sorry for asking that much. 20:55:43 <Eddi|zuHause> just remember wagons can't be shorter than 3/8 20:55:59 <glx> Rubidium: hmm it doesn't work for me (but maybe it's because I have some duplicates in the cfg) 20:56:02 <peter1138> fjb, wagons in a train follow the wagon ahead. 20:56:13 <Eddi|zuHause> i.e the "reduce length" property set to 5 20:56:25 <peter1138> Rubidium, I just deleted everything in the list, quit, restarted, and it was still there. 20:56:49 <Rubidium> peter1138: maybe you've got duplicate entries in the .cfg? 20:56:51 <fjb> The interesting thing would be parts of an articulated locomotive.
