00:02:29  * TrueBrain wonders if he should replace his own lexer with bison+flex ... generates more complex code, more lines, less readable, slightly slower .. but more compatible/changable ...
00:03:30  <Eddi|zuHause> who cares how big or complex generated code is?
00:03:55  <TrueBrain> NoAI already increases compile time of OpenTTD with 30+%
00:04:17  <frosch123> what's wrong with your own lexer?
00:04:45  <TrueBrain> well, it is slightly more difficult to add things
00:04:57  <TrueBrain> flex/bison makes that REALLY easy
00:05:09  <TrueBrain> and, allows tree-like syntax analyzes
00:05:30  <TrueBrain> my own lexer is a lineair structure, will never allow any real syntax analyzes
00:05:42  <TrueBrain> but I guess we can build a tree out of it too, as a side-step .. just slightly more complex :)

00:11:30  <TrueBrain> so there is nothing wrong with the current lexer in NAIL, I just wonder if bison/flex isn't a more logic solution .. hmm ..
00:11:37  <Char2> wheee, ECS is pretty tough compared to normal game

00:24:59  <Char2> anyone still awake?
00:25:57  <TrueBrain> nope
00:26:01  <Char2> great :)
00:26:23  <welshdragon> nope
00:26:26  <Char2> question: are you building statues of the company owner in the cities?
00:26:35  <Char2> cause it increases the rating at your stations
00:26:38  <welshdragon> answer: yes
00:26:41  <TrueBrain> no, I always build them of my oponent
00:27:06  <Char2> uhmmmm.... this was an honest question, you know, so an honest answer would have been nice ;)
00:27:25  <ln> it's always a statue of Bjarni.
00:27:26  <welshdragon> and i gave you an answer: yes
00:27:27  <TrueBrain> well, I thought it was funny :)
00:29:54  <Eddi|zuHause> i agree ;)
00:30:31  <welshdragon> so do i actually
00:30:47  <TrueBrain> so it is just Char2 ;)

00:57:26  <Char2> what happens if you have multiple statues in one city?
00:58:34  <TrueBrain> your city gets really ugly
01:01:55  *** roboboy [3aad2910@webchat.mibbit.com] has joined #openttd
01:02:27  <kunwon1> the city goes under because it can't afford the statue tax

13:06:00  <George> I didn't start yet, but if you are unhappy to see me here ... Just tell
13:06:20  <yorick> you show up and the first thing you do is complain
13:06:31  <George> Yes, I'm George, the author of LV and ECS.
13:06:44  <Ammler> he, nice. :-)
13:07:10  <Doorslammer> Not that Im unhappy you are here, just rather unhappy that someone who has much forum experience complain worse than some new people
13:07:48  <TrueBrain> Doorslammer: well, this in fact is a all time low for me :)
13:07:49  <George> It is not a complain yet, it is a help request.
13:08:28  <Ammler> just use an alternative name like TTGeorge or Geor9e or what ever...
13:08:56  <frosch123> or George123 :p
13:08:59  <George> But how would other understand that this is the same George?

13:09:23  <Ammler> they will very soon know you as that...
13:09:25  <frosch123> sometimes it is not that bad, when not everyone knows that I am frosch :)
13:10:03  <TrueBrain> frosch123: you are 'frosch'? Wow .... :p
13:10:04  <TrueBrain> haha
13:10:21  <George> 2Frosch. Thank you for your fix.
13:10:23  <George> But why?
13:10:27  <frosch123> well, I also highlight on "frosh" in the mean time
13:10:55  <Ammler> George: the network has more then just those 2 channels...
13:11:10  <Doorslammer> My name is in half and changes to something almost unrelated when the original times out
13:11:10  <Ammler> and evey nick is unique on the whole network
13:11:37  <George> Is it possible to have different "George" s on different channels?
13:12:02  <TrueBrain> again, read any IRC manual
13:12:03  <Ammler> that is what we tried to tell you, it isn't
13:13:35  <George> It will take time. As for now belugas said me to join IRC to see FS2334 discussion. But I could not find it yet :(
13:15:24  <George> frosch, where is the discussion belugas was telling me about?
13:16:54  <stillunknown> irc is real time, meaning you'll have to find/wait for belugas
13:16:59  <frosch123> hehe, that was a non-public discussion
13:17:46  *** rortom [~rortom_@5acfc1f1.bb.sky.com] has joined #openttd
13:17:56  <frosch123> but George, we were mainly wondering how useful the results 0xD, 0xE and 0xF are.
13:18:25  <frosch123> I.e. to my knowledge they only work when you are using a production callback and have "automatic multiplier handling" enabled
13:18:47  <George> how can I join that non-public discussion
13:19:29  <frosch123> but when you already use a production callback, you can also just store your own multiplier in some persistent register, and multiply however you like inside the production callback
13:19:57  <George> I'd like to say that they are very useful for ECS vectors. Every mine uses them and I plan to use it for every industry in the future.
13:20:00  <frosch123> btw. that would also allow changing production of different output cargos independent from each other
13:20:28  <frosch123> but do you agree, that they are not very useful when an industry produces more than one cargo?
13:21:29  <George> Yes, I can use industry register instead of var 93, but I do not think that is the best way.
13:22:22  <frosch123> well, "the best way" was the whole point of the discussion, and we got no result :)
13:23:04  <George> No, in ECS vectors every industry that has 2 outputs, has them linked, so for me var 93 is ok
13:24:38  <George> And what were the arguments? How can I read your non-public discussions? Could you authorize me to your non-public channel?
13:25:50  <frosch123> another question was, which register to use
13:26:06  <frosch123> I would like when the textref stack would be uses consistently accross all callbacks
13:26:42  <frosch123> though the stringID in register 0x100 might be some special case
13:27:24  <George> As i wrote, selecting registers is up to devs team
13:28:25  <frosch123> however, generally there is no real argument against 0xF, as 0xD and 0xE are already there
13:28:39  <George> On the GRF side every register is good as soon as it is documented and unchanged ;)
13:28:42  <frosch123> so it could somewhat finish that stuff
13:30:05  <George> Should I read it as you've decided to implement it?
13:31:02  <frosch123> well, we agreed on "yes", but not on "how" :)
13:31:17  <George> Thank you!
13:31:42  <George> Let me know if you need a GRF to test.
13:32:10  <frosch123> err, of course we also have no plan for "when"
13:33:24  <George> I didn't say that I'm supposing to see it in trunk today ;)
13:34:47  <frosch123> however, your info, that your output rates are linked by a constant factor, is also useful :)#
13:35:27  <George> For me it is Ok when devs say "We decided to implement it". My GRFs took over 3 years to do, devs would be definitely faster :lol:
13:35:57  <George> Feel free to ask me any question about ECS vectors
13:38:06  <George> Just to note. Linked do not mean equal. Proportions are defined by income cargo and % transported. var 93 defines only the max values.
13:38:57  <George> So, how can I join your devs channel? What steps should I do?
13:39:52  <yorick> you need to ask them for the name and hope they let you in
13:39:56  <frosch123> usual approach is to fix about 20 FS tasks using our coding style and get them committed
13:40:15  <frosch123> or you code some nice feature, that gets committed, and prove that you support your code
13:40:33  <yorick> and if they don't, which is usually the case, you can use frosch's approach
13:44:13  <George> I do not plan to become a dev, because that would stop GRF developing. Is it possible to join the channel for the GRF coder, not an OTTD dev?
13:44:46  <frosch123> what's wrong with this channel?
13:46:33  <George> Because I can't read those discussions here, which belugas is referring to. With the same effect I can use no IRC channel and wait for belugas mail.
13:47:18  <yorick> or...you could hope they forget to add +s some day, then looking in the channel list and join that channel, with them banning you <-- my approach

13:58:34  <yorick> invisible smilies
13:58:52  <George> Strange. I understood this
13:58:54  <George> belugas> BY the way, you should notice that all our communications (with other devs, i mean) are done on IRC. One day, you should really try to useit. IT would make your life far easier. And don't tellm e about the language barrier. There are users who speak far worse english than you can imagine ;)
13:58:56  <George> as inviting to the channel.
13:59:00  <Doorslammer>    <--- Im sticking my tongue out at you stealthily
13:59:21  <frosch123> George: he mean't this channel :)

13:59:47  <George> 2yorick: Chatzilla has showed only the last one as the image
13:59:47  <frosch123> and he said it for the same reason as phone is sometimes more useful than a letter
14:01:26  <George> Sorry, but what would be the use of me at this channel, when you discuss a question in the other? Confused.
14:01:27  <Doorslammer> No one has ever bombed a phone call, for instance
14:03:09  <yorick> George: that they can move the discussion *here* for you to see it
14:04:26  <George> But how can I know that a time came to join in discussion if I do not see it? Confused.
14:05:11  <George> Also, if they move it, I can't see the previous posts, which were done in the private channel?
14:05:28  <yorick> ...

14:07:15  <TrueBrain> (seriously work ;))
14:08:57  <George> I'm already reading http://chatzilla.hacksrus.com/faq/ . Can't say that it is very clean from the first read
14:09:00  <rortom> yorick is sometimes ..... :|
14:09:39  <Doorslammer> ... a tit
14:10:06  <TrueBrain> George: okay, because it is you, let me explain a few things: IRC is a real time env. Like a conversaion you are having in a crowdy room. If you are not in the room when the speaker is saying something, you missed it, and you can't get it back
14:10:17  <TrueBrain> it is not like a forum, there are no stickies on the wall which tell you what is said
14:10:38  <TrueBrain> so any previous discusion is lost, and lost for ever, besides the summary in the minds of the people in the room
14:11:00  <TrueBrain> what Belugas meant, was for you to join here, so when ever he is around (or who ever wants to conitnue on it), have you in the room, so you can participate
14:11:06  <George> that is bad because of time zones :(
14:11:19  <TrueBrain> in no way Belugas meant that he wanted you to read back the discussion that had already happened
14:11:22  <TrueBrain> a bit clear to you now? :)
14:11:29  <TrueBrain> in general we do just fine :)
14:12:44  <TrueBrain> then it needs to be noted that this channel is logged, and can be read back (like yorick is doing now), but that is most of the time impossible to read back; also, the developers channel is not publicly logged (for various of reasons)
14:13:25  <George> I understood this already, the problem was how to use this right way. Today is Sunday and I have time to be online at this time, but in most days this would not happen.
14:13:48  <TrueBrain> and Belugas is rarely online on a sunday

15:10:00  <George> What is better - to be connected IRC while being of-line personally or connect IRC for chating that would happen once a week or so? Is there some way to make e-mail notification to join IRC now? So I could join IRC only when my participation is required?
15:14:22  <Aali> If you can, stay connected 24/7
15:15:01  <Aali> your client should tell you when someone says your name, so you can answer peoples questions whenever you have time
15:15:42  <George> My PC is 24/7 and chatzilla can be always open. But me myself would appear rarely.

15:19:41  <Aali> additionally, you should be able to mark yourself as away, and your client should then be able to provide a backlog of highlighted messages when you come back

17:07:00  <Aali> industries aren't accepting cargo from the chemical vector
17:07:15  <Aali> its listed as a resource, but they never accept it
17:07:37  <Aali> glass works wont take potash, power plant wont take oil
17:11:06  <Aali> oh and banks want me to transport gold, not valuables, in temperate
17:14:17  <TrueBrain> so to summarize it, you didn't load ECS :p
17:15:08  <Aali> very funny, but no, all the other vectors work
17:15:33  <TrueBrain> tnx, I know I am very funny :)
17:16:53  <George> Potash bug is reported. I did not test the fix yet, Let me know if this GRF http://george.zernebok.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=185#185 fixes potash problem
17:18:03  <George> Power plant accepts oil after 1950 as soon as one of coal image is replaced with a tank image
17:21:26  <George> Bank and gold mine are controlled with parameter 0. See http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php?page=ECSBasicVector for details

17:31:10  <Aali> oh and i read somewhere on the wiki that ECS could stop working in 2100-something

20:05:20  <Ammler> George: you do not allow multiple industries benear each other, so a little bit more then default would be nice
20:05:35  <Ammler> default is 4k, iirc
20:06:11  <Ammler> 25k is quite much more :-)
20:06:27  <George> I meant PROCESSING industry
20:06:34  <Ammler> oh
20:06:44  <Ammler> well, then 25k is fine, imo.
20:07:09  <George> Default ones were unlimited (and some users archived 32K AFAIR)
20:07:36  <Ammler> coop industries are around 10-20k
20:08:09  <Ammler> can't remember, we ever reached 20k
20:09:11  <Ammler> btw. I miss a switch on ECS to build same industry together

20:13:15  <frosch123> productivity increased by a average of 1.8% in the last decades
20:13:28  <frosch123> (1.8% per year)

20:14:19  <DorpsGek> Eddi|zuHause2: 10.1674288062
20:14:20  <frosch123> so 130 years from 1920 to 2050 would be about factor 10
20:14:45  <Mark> Ammler: we reached 30k several times
20:14:53  <Mark> game 60, for example
20:15:23  <Ammler> that was the 2k trains game?
20:15:28  <Mark> no
20:15:37  <George> What for do you a need a switch to build industries nearby? You have irregular stations which can spread wide enough.
20:15:45  <Mark> 66 it was, not 60
20:15:50  <Eddi|zuHause2> the change is probably more drastic during the 19th century
20:16:07  <Mark> http://www.openttdcoop.org/wiki/images/8/8f/PSGame66.png this one
20:16:13  <Ammler> George: yeah pre1920 industry would rock :-)
20:16:30  <Aali> still can't reproduce it reliably, but i got some more info
20:16:42  <Aali> its trying to fetch string 216 from the GRF
20:17:20  <Aali> and that in turn triggers some bad stuff
20:17:49  <Aali> probably because there's some garbage in the string
20:17:52  <Eddi|zuHause2> Ammler: for a timescale like that, it should not be the same industries producing different amounts, it should rather be different industries which probably should be much smaller area-wise
20:18:20  <George> I decided that per 1925-th production would be a constant :)
20:19:30  <Eddi|zuHause2> if you play a game in 18xx, you really need tiny industries that you can deliver locally

20:19:48  <Eddi|zuHause2> so you need small industries, but a lot of them, forming a very fine grid
20:20:08  <George> 2Eddi|zuHause2: But I can't change industry size in game. I can force the old industry to close, while the new one would have a different size, but me doubts a player would like such behaviour.
20:20:24  <Eddi|zuHause2> then, as the technology evolves, you can start bringing more cargo over longer distances

20:21:24  <Eddi|zuHause2> George: why not? it is done with oil wells and oil rigs in the original game, too
20:21:43  <George> So. Would users like that in 1920-th / 1950-th old industries would close down and new ones would appear?

20:22:24  <George> And did you like it? I never transported oil from oil wells in temperate.
20:22:42  <Eddi|zuHause2> you don't necessarily need to force the old industries to close, it would just get not lucrative for the player to serve such tiny amounts of cargo anymore
20:22:50  <frosch123> George: IMO that depends on how long they are available
20:23:10  <frosch123> i.e. the oil wells only decrease production in original game
20:23:35  <frosch123> but when they would behave normal from 1850 - 1950, things would be different
20:23:35  <George> 2frosch: and what do you suggest?

20:24:44  <frosch123> and someone who starts with horses and 10 kmh trains in 1800 has to replace his whole network anyway at some point
20:25:02  <Eddi|zuHause2> and leave out this "2", that is very disturbing...

20:25:12  <frosch123> lol
20:25:26  <Eddi|zuHause> i mean the other 2 ;)
20:25:28  <Ammler> :-D
20:25:35  <TrueBrain> now that is worth a quote ;)
20:25:51  <George> well, what amounts of production are good for which time?
20:26:17  <Ammler> 19th century
20:26:20  <Eddi|zuHause> that depends very much on player's taste
20:26:30  <George> Eddi|zuHause: thank you
20:26:49  <Ammler> around a 1/10 of 1950
20:27:21  <SmatZ> for me, 2000 production is fine, no matter what time it is...
20:27:40  <Ammler> poor horses :P
20:27:57  <SmatZ> :-)

20:28:36  <frosch123> when playing with a wagon speed limit of 80 or 120 kmh, I need a whole track to only service a single industry
20:28:36  <SmatZ> why, frosch123? because 1 platform loading station isn't enough?
20:28:47  <frosch123> I would not care about the platform
20:28:51  <George> frosch123: we are speaking about SECONDARY industries
20:28:52  <SmatZ> :)
20:28:59  <SmatZ> ah...
20:29:05  * SmatZ goes back to work :)
20:29:16  <Ammler> well, but 2. depense on 1.
20:29:30  <frosch123> but at some point there is no sense in a network, when a single industry needs its own track
20:29:41  <Eddi|zuHause> i'd say on average, you should have 10 primary industries to serve 1 secondary industry
20:29:49  *** lobster_MB [~michielbr@5353392C.cable.casema.nl] has quit [Quit: COCKBUSTER SLEEP MODE]
20:30:13  <Eddi|zuHause> so 1000 is fine when each primary industry provides 100
20:30:33  <frosch123> George: well, the difference is, that I control how much secondary industries produce, by stopping delivering them
20:30:38  <Eddi|zuHause> for horse carriages, you cannot expect them to haul 100 items per month, though
20:30:41  <George> Eddi|zuHause: I planned 3-7 primary for 1 secondary in average, but the number should grow during gameplay
20:31:15  <Eddi|zuHause> George: keep in mind that the production of primary industries also rises
20:31:38  <George> but less than secondary ones.
20:33:15  *** welshdragon [~vista@87.102.21.185] has joined #openttd
20:33:18  <George> frosch123: So, how many items should it produce on the highest level before 1900, in 1920, 1950, 2000, 2050?
20:33:29  <frosch123> well for farms one could say, 9 of 10 close down from 1860 to 1950, and the other increase production by factor 50 or so
20:34:22  <George> 50? Interesting. Do you have the same statistics for other industries?
20:34:38  <frosch123> err, that was a wild guess of my imagination :)
20:35:00  <George> :))))
20:35:35  <Eddi|zuHause> well, the number of people working in agriculture did decrease from something like 90% to 4% in the last 200 years
20:36:35  <Eddi|zuHause> which was the start of all this industrialisation mess in the first place, increasing the efficiency of agriculture ;)
20:36:49  <George> frosch123: BTW that would require OTTDs code to have different amount of industries to generate before 1900, and after 1920.
20:38:56  <frosch123> http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Produktivit%A4t <- at the bottom is some table, the last column "ΔPi" is the increment rate of productivity
20:39:12  <frosch123> http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Produktivit%C3%A4t
20:39:20  <frosch123> stupid client
20:39:33  <Eddi|zuHause> i could imagine giving the industries some overall "weight", so not all industries are considered equal with regard to industry generation... so you could have 100 farms or 5 factories with the same industry density setting
20:39:52  <Ammler> but don't look to deep in that :-)

20:46:34  <Zuu> Is anyone aware of a stand-alone program to query a OpenTTD server of the info that can be optained from it? I'm aware of OpenTTDLib in php, which is a possibility by making a php-file that takes ip and port as input and deliveries the result from the OpenTTD server.
20:47:05  <TrueBrain> I never read anyone making a true stand-alone application doing that, besides OpenTTD itself
20:47:10  <Eddi|zuHause> Zuu: what are you actually asking?
20:47:20  <TrueBrain> (well, and except ottd-update (part of MasterServer))
20:48:20  <Zuu> A solution to get the version of an OpenTTD server form a stand-alone program.
20:48:29  <Ammler> Zuu: there is something with python too

20:53:25  <Ammler> but well, ECS is very hard to manage anyway.

20:54:35  <Ammler> nothing wrong

23:40:38  <Aali> the only bad thing about RVs is that you can't control them in the same way you can control your trains
23:41:54  <SmatZ> multistop is limited to 16 loading bays / station
23:42:15  <Aali> but you can always have more stations
23:42:21  <SmatZ> yeah :)
23:42:50  <Aali> 16 loading bays with high traffic is bound to cause some serious jamming too
23:43:04  <Char> ;)
23:43:14  <Char> my trains jam as well, so....
23:46:47  <Aali> Char: http://www.openttdcoop.org/wiki/PublicServer:Archive_-_Games_111_-_120#gameid_111
23:47:09  <Aali> download the save for PSG111 and have a look
23:47:47  <Char> wow
23:50:19  <Char> thats horribly slow :P
23:51:11  <Eddi|zuHause> TT was horribly slow with 80 trains on my 386 DX25
23:51:30  <Char> good thing with RVs is that you do not need any signalling
23:51:55  <Char> TT was pretty okay if you had not too many trains on my 386 DX40
23:51:56  <Aali> bad thing with RVs is that you can't do any signaling
23:52:28  <Eddi|zuHause> 40 is significantly more than 25
23:52:30  <Char> the 368 SX25 processor which was in that computer earlier (and the 8x 128KB RAM) was slower though
23:52:55  <Char> that thing had a turbo switch which you had to switch on to get 25 MHz
23:53:03  <Char> otherwise it was running with 8 MHz
23:53:09  <Eddi|zuHause> even on my 486 SX25 laptop it was significantly faster
23:53:25  <Char> hmmm
23:53:48  <Char> you remember the games that did not have any kind of control for the speed they were running at?
23:53:53  <Char> just running as fast as it got?
23:53:56  <Eddi|zuHause> yes
23:54:02  <Char> like... nibbles for example :P
23:54:11  <Eddi|zuHause> i usually started those under windows, so they run slower :p
23:54:24  <Char> which kindof sucked at 25 MHz but was pretty okay at 8 MHz
23:54:29  <Char> hmmm
23:54:42  <Char> and warcraft1 was running much faster at my friends 486
23:54:46  <Eddi|zuHause> my computer did not have a turbo button
23:54:53  <Char> too bad ;)
23:55:17  <Eddi|zuHause> it was worse when my brother thought he found the turbo button
23:55:24  <Eddi|zuHause> but it was the reset button...
23:55:27  <Char> ;)
23:55:31  <Char> hmmm
23:55:38  <TrueBrain> hmm .. turbo button ...
23:55:53  <Char> i remember that the computer did not turn off when you pressed the power button but only when you released it
23:55:55  <Eddi|zuHause> which he of course had to press immediately before i had a chance to correct him...
23:56:12  <TrueBrain> Char: pretty normal for mechanical switches :)
23:56:12  <Char> so i remember pushing the power button and then realizing that i should not yet switch off
23:56:16  <Eddi|zuHause> that is normal
23:56:17  <Char> so i had to hold that thing
23:56:23  <Char> for a while.....
23:56:28  <TrueBrain> we all been there :)
23:56:43  <Char> until i realized that if you were quick enough you could release it and press it again without the computer going off
23:56:55  <Eddi|zuHause> but mine was not such a pushing switch, so it was different
23:57:11  <Char> hmmm
23:57:13  <TrueBrain> before that I had a real switch
23:57:16  <TrueBrain> not a press button :p
23:57:27  <Char> the best switch i ever had though was much later
23:57:37  <Char> on a pentium3 or something like that
23:58:20  <Char> a friend of mine had a computer on his desk which did not have any case.... otherwise it was fine though. problem was that without a case, you did not have any power switch
23:58:25  <Char> so you could not turn it on
23:58:34  <Eddi|zuHause> my father loved the power switch on his Colani tower, because he could switch it with his big toe
23:58:35  <thingwath> screwdriver...
23:58:46  <Char> however, the power switch basically does nothing else than connect the pins on the mainboard
23:58:53  <Char> yes, a screwdriver worked pretty well ;)
23:59:06  <Char> Eddi|zuHause: rofl
23:59:08  <TrueBrain> I still do that when working on a computer
23:59:15  * thingwath loves screwdrivers
23:59:17  <TrueBrain> the reset button only works a bit more annoying
