00:01:50  <WhiteRhino> Converting all my normal track to electric..
00:02:47  <Eddi|zuHause> takes not more than 5 mouse clicks and one keypress
00:05:39  <WhiteRhino> Also converting trains: one was 27 years old with a max life of 21 years.
00:07:01  <Wolf01> use autorenew
00:08:37  <WhiteRhino> That would have renewed it as the same engine, though, right?
00:08:47  <Aali> use autoreplace
00:12:08  <Wolf01> autoreplace do replace immediately at the first service, if you plan to use the vehicles for long time use autorenew and set autoreplace when you need to convert all your vehicles or a specific group
00:13:38  <Belugas> kittens will eventually grow big, like tigers!
00:14:15  <WhiteRhino> Almost two mil in new vehicles this year. Oy.
00:15:35  <Aali> if only I had two mil to spend on new vehicles..

00:53:41  <Aali> i think so
00:53:56  <KenjiE20> third futurama movie? <- Bender's Big Game
00:54:10  <Eddi|zuHause> wasn't that the second?
00:54:19  <KenjiE20> nope, Billion Backs was 2nd
00:54:34  <Eddi|zuHause> which was the first then?
00:54:40  <KenjiE20> Bender's Big Score
00:54:59  <Eddi|zuHause> hm... titles too similar...

01:09:08  <WhiteRhino> Ooh, it's almost my in-game birthday.
01:09:22  <Eddi|zuHause> you were born in-game?
01:09:31  <WhiteRhino> I meant my birthday, but in-game time.
01:09:36  <SmatZ> hehe
01:09:45  <SmatZ> I loved when it happened in TTD
01:10:00  <SmatZ> I have several savegames (from different games) from that date :)
01:10:26  <frosch123> were you born in a train? and are wondering which?
01:10:34  <SmatZ> hehe
01:10:38  <SmatZ> no, I am just strange :)
01:10:53  <SmatZ> I also thought there will be monorails everywhere after 2000
01:11:11  <SmatZ> but there are still regular rails being built
01:11:31  <WhiteRhino> The reason I'm sitting on mil right now is because I love watching my trains go around.
01:11:45  <Eddi|zuHause> the cost of conversion is way too little in the game
01:11:56  <SmatZ> not talking about UFO:Enemy Unknown, or movie Demolition man... they were so wrong about their expectations :)
01:12:14  <WhiteRhino> *gasp* X-Com: Ufo Defense? >.>
01:12:16  <Eddi|zuHause> especially the difference between purchasing land early and purchasing land late in the game is not modelled right
01:13:17  <SmatZ> WhiteRhino: http://www.warphammer.net/imagenes/xcom_ufo_02.jpg this one :)
01:13:24  <frosch123> "13 monkeys" was nice
01:13:30  <frosch123> or 12?
01:13:38  <Eddi|zuHause> the profit vs. running costs is also way off
01:13:55  <Eddi|zuHause> a big railway company should make only marginal profit
01:14:09  <SmatZ> Eddi|zuHause: don't start talking about realism :) for more realistic running costs, you may use GRF sets
01:14:24  <Eddi|zuHause> grfs don't help with the general model
01:14:26  <CIA-9> OpenTTD: truebrain * r14860 /branches/noai/src/ai/api/ai_controller.cpp: [NoAI] -Fix r14859: I just wanted revision 14860 to be mine
01:14:35  <WhiteRhino> Been wasting k a year because I forgot to convert two tunnels to electric.
01:14:45  <Eddi|zuHause> the running costs are still constant, so having 100 lines will give you 100 times the profit
01:15:12  <SmatZ> :)
01:15:24  <SmatZ> well
01:15:32  <SmatZ> you are right
01:15:35  <Eddi|zuHause> the only thing that running costs change is the duration of the early game
01:15:49  <Eddi|zuHause> before you earn so much money that you can't spend it anymore
01:16:15  <Eddi|zuHause> earning money should get _more_ difficult the more vehicles you have
01:16:49  <Aali> try playing 64x64
01:16:50  <CIA-9> OpenTTD: truebrain * r14861 /branches/noai/ (bin/ai/regression/regression.nut src/ai/api/ai_object.cpp): [NoAI] -Change [API CHANGE]: set the default roadtype to INVALID. Set it yourself, or you won't be able to build any road-stuff!! (using AIRoad.SetCurrentRoadType()) (Yexo)
01:17:32  <Eddi|zuHause> i had a proposition about running costs being multiplied with a factor depending on vehicle count in the forum recently
01:18:09  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: 64x64 does not really fit my playing style
01:18:12  <WhiteRhino> Yeaaah, that's the one. The UFO dealy.
01:18:57  <Aali> but it does limit your abilities to make more money simply by setting up more routes
01:19:15  <Aali> as long as there's more cargo to transport, why shouldn't you be able to make more money?
01:19:18  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: but that is not what i meant.
01:19:52  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: the idea behind this is, the bigger your network, the higher your management overhead
01:20:01  <Eddi|zuHause> this is absolutely not modeled in the game right now
01:20:16  <Aali> right
01:20:25  <Aali> that shouldn't affect running costs though
01:20:38  <JdGordon> if you disable the electric rails, do you still get the electric trains? or is the elctric rails ore than just looks
01:20:40  <Aali> paying maintenance for your infrastructure would be awesome though
01:20:45  <Eddi|zuHause> well, the running cost factor was an idea to model that
01:21:08  <Eddi|zuHause> infrastructure maintenance is also not what i mean, because that would also be "constant"
01:21:14  <Eddi|zuHause> or "linear"
01:21:18  <Aali> JdGordon: electric rails are more than just eyecandy
01:21:31  <JdGordon> ok
01:21:34  <Aali> electric engines wont run without catenary
01:22:26  <WhiteRhino> It's sad when the only good thing on TV is Antiques Roadshow.
01:22:34  <Aali> Eddi|zuHause: it doesn't make much sense to punish players for using alot of vehicles though
01:22:37  <Eddi|zuHause> JdGordon: disabling electric rails makes it behave like the old game, so electrified trains exist, but they run on non-electrified tracks
01:22:56  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: yes, it does, it's called "game balance"
01:23:20  <Eddi|zuHause> it doesn't make sense to have players with more money than they can spend

01:28:29  <Aali> sure but running costs per-vehicle should not increase just because you have alot of vehicles
01:28:56  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: let's assume that 1 vehicle can be managed by 1 train crew
01:29:10  <Eddi|zuHause> 2 vehicles then need 2 train crews, and one manager
01:29:37  <Eddi|zuHause> 4 vehicles need 4 train crews, 2 managers that manage 2 vehicles each, and one manager managing the 2 managers
01:29:48  <Aali> sure, you can charge for that, but it should not end up as running cost
01:29:52  <Eddi|zuHause> the more vehicles you get, the more levels of management you need
01:30:01  <Eddi|zuHause> you end up with a tree structure of managers
01:30:08  <JdGordon> you'll go broke quickly with that management level

01:31:44  <Yexo> Eddi|zuHause: that is still a linear cost. For every n trains (assuming n = 2**x), you need n-1 managers
01:31:46  <thingwath> that makes having more than some 2^small n vehicles impossible :-)
01:31:57  *** WhiteRhinoPSO is now known as WhiteRhino
01:32:09  <Eddi|zuHause> Yexo: yes, but a higher level manager gets more money than a lower level manager
01:32:25  <Eddi|zuHause> if you assume that each level higher gets twice the amount of money
01:32:27  <Yexo> ah, now we are getting somewhere :)
01:32:33  <Eddi|zuHause> you end up with a n^2 cost
01:33:03  <WhiteRhino> I hate trees in the temperate maps. I can't tell what's what unless I bring up the little map screen.
01:33:18  <Aali> that will place a limit on how many vehicles you can possibly have before it all comes tumbling down under the weight of all those managers and you just can't make more money
01:33:25  <Aali> i dont like that :/
01:33:26  <JdGordon> except it make sense that it would get cheaper per train to run the more you have because you're management levels and services are utilized more fully
01:33:29  <Eddi|zuHause> n^2 is of course very much, so it should be more like n^1.5 or something
01:33:36  <Eddi|zuHause> values can be tweaked
01:33:57  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: welcome to bureaucracy
01:34:10  <Aali> WhiteRhino: transparency settings, hide trees (unless you're using 0.6.3, in which case you're screwed)
01:34:17  <JdGordon> with only 1 train it should be very expensivce to run... but once you start getting a dozen or more then everything is working at full speed/efficiency and its cheaper per train overall
01:34:26  <WhiteRhino> I already have them transparent, but there's so freaking many they still blot out everything but the farms.
01:34:37  <Aali> i must have missed the genre change from transport tycoon from bureaucracy tycoon
01:34:41  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: there is a reason why big companies start to "outsource" their minor branches
01:34:47  <Yexo> in 0.6.3 there is an option to make transparant trees invisible iirc
01:34:48  <Aali> err
01:34:48  <Aali> to

01:41:09  <JdGordon> can industries be persuaded to supply more somehow? I've got copper ore mines dotted around the map with like 60 tonnes last month which isnt worth setting up a route for...

01:41:42  <Yexo> or open the cheat window (ctrl+alt+c) and cheat to increase production
01:42:08  <SmatZ> 60%+ transported and 80%+ transported increases your chance of increasing production

02:23:49  <Westie> I created a blank openttd.cfg in the directory with the nightly located - after starting the program it populates the file. I would have thought the defaults would have worked. I have tried on both easy and medium difficulties. Just thought I'd ask before submitting a bug
02:24:53  <Aali> how long did you wait? they start at random
02:25:23  <Westie> I tried fast forward for 3 years (they are meant to start after 6 and 3 months - easy,medium)
02:25:54  <Aali> hmm
02:25:56  <Westie> I also have a game just ticking by in the background - over 18 months and still no competitors
02:26:14  <Aali> that sounds a bit odd
02:26:28  <Westie> thats why I asked - thought there might have been something I missed
02:26:36  <Aali> you're not playing a scenario or anything? you're sure the settings are right in-game?
02:27:04  <Aali> the main menu settings only affect new games
02:27:13  <Westie> yup they are good. Just created empty config, start game - then stated easy with default options - no changes made at all
02:27:57  <Aali> let me see if i can reproduce that

02:28:27  <Westie> yes
02:30:24  *** AngryRhino is now known as WhiteRhino
02:31:14  <Aali> thats a negative, after about a year i have an AI with some routes
02:31:33  <Aali> no config file
02:32:31  <Westie> no config means it uses the one in your My documents (with windows) at least that is what the docs say. You need to create an empty openttd.cfg in the nightly directory
02:32:52  <Aali> no, really, no config file
02:32:53  <Aali> at all
02:33:00  <Aali> i dont have one in my home folder
02:33:33  <Westie> I am referring to this http://wiki.openttd.org/wiki/index.php/Nightly_builds#openttd.cfg
02:34:17  <Aali> sure, thats alright
02:34:55  <Aali> but i just ran the nightly without a config file (so it used default everything) and i have AI competitors
02:35:00  <Westie> I've deleted the one in my docs and I'll try again
02:35:10  <Westie> perhaps it is copying that to generate the new one?
02:36:16  <Aali> if there is a file called openttd.cfg in the same directory as the binary, it wont use the one from my docs or whatever
02:36:37  <Aali> or, shouldn't
02:36:54  <WhiteRhino> ANd to think, I used to hate Goods.
02:41:17  <Westie> I can't work it out, I deleted all the config files I could find, and I still get no AIs
02:41:44  <Westie> something strange for me ... perhaps I'll reboot to linux and see if that helps
02:42:21  <Westie> everytime I start the nightly version, it creates a OpenTTD directory in MyDocuments, and puts a config file in there.
02:42:57  <Aali> its supposed to do that
02:43:05  <Aali> shouldn't change anything

03:58:32  <WhiteRhino> Upgrading airports seems synonymous with changing the size of a railroad station. Just be quick on the dynamite and rebuild buttons so you don't lose the station name and screw up people's orders.
03:59:06  <Sacro> yeah :\
03:59:20  <Sacro> but iwth a train station you can nuke in/out lines

09:28:53  <mrfrenzy> it's a good idea to test one's battery at the end of summer ;)
09:29:08  <mrfrenzy> because it's usually the summer heat that kills them, then you get problems when it's cold
09:29:11  <matias> yes, i know..

10:09:30  <canidae> morning. is "min_players" supposed to work without much more magic than setting it, or am i missing something? i expected it to pause the game when there are less than min_players, although game is never paused (yes, dedicated server)
10:10:00  <canidae> (running last nightly)
10:15:58  <petern> min_players is broken currently
10:16:07  <petern> patch network.min_active_clients works
10:16:30  <canidae> ah, i couldn't find it in the bug tracker :)
10:16:38  <canidae> i assume that only cares about clients?
10:16:53  <petern> i don't know why it was renamed
10:16:57  <petern> active_clients == players
10:17:08  <petern> somebody thought players was ambiguous
10:18:32  <Rubidium> players were also what's not called companies... and then the question is: is it the amount of companies (players) or the amount of active clients (players)
10:19:43  <canidae> also, just curious; previous nightly appeared to segfault the game when clicking advanced settings. apparently latest nightly doesn't, but i didn't see anything about it in the changelog. is this correct?
10:20:06  <petern> you could at least have fixed the aliass
10:20:08  <petern> -s
10:20:34  <petern> as it is every server will need to reset the setting because it would've been saved with the old name

11:49:01  <TrueBrain> but at the ned I was awaiting approval of the losing registar, something I should be able to do, but I couldn't find anywhere
11:49:14  <TrueBrain> after a long while I get an email from OpenSRS allowing me to do so ... then you go to that website, and you read this:
11:49:58  <TrueBrain> "OpenSRS Reseller" blabla "completely invisible for your clients"
11:50:05  <TrueBrain> well .. not THAT invisible clearly :p Idiots ...
11:50:49  <TrueBrain> even worse, then you compare the prices they use, and the ones I have been paying at the losing registar ... almost 5 dollar a year of difference ...

19:48:44  <edeca> goodger: Heck I'm bored of it now.
19:48:46  <petern> it didn't snow today
19:48:59  <edeca> Problem in the UK is that it gets to 1 or 2C, melts, then freezes again over night
19:49:03  <petern> so we had yesterday's partly melted and refrozen slippery stuff to deal with
19:49:04  <petern> hah
19:49:06  <edeca> So you get pretty snow with a thick layer of ice
19:49:11  <Forked> urrgh
19:49:27  <edeca> It's great fun to drive on
19:49:27  <yorick> no snow means more ice :)
19:49:38  <yorick> more ice means more ice-fun
19:50:03  <goodger> problem in cornwall is that basic meteorology prevents us from having the conditions for snow --- under a depression it's too warm and under an anticyclone there's no cloud
19:50:15  <yorick> ice-skating :)
19:50:23  <edeca> goodger: And most of it is by the coast
19:50:51  <edeca> I can remember snow once in 3 years near the coast :(
19:51:04  <goodger> well
19:51:11  <goodger> depends what you mean by "near"
19:51:23  <edeca> Nearer than the midlands :)
19:51:35  <Eddi|zuHause> cornwall... that's like the end of the world, right?

19:53:33  <thingwath> it's a bit different when the nearest coast is 400 kilometers away
19:54:19  <goodger> of course, the island is only 31km wide at this point
19:54:21  <petern> my nearest coast is the thames estuary, i guess. does that count as coast?
19:54:30  <goodger> so my perception of "inland" is a bit skewed
19:54:51  <Eddi|zuHause> we have a tiny stream and a lake in the village, does that count as coast?

20:54:06  <goodger> my vote is wasted in cornwall also, because the lib-dems have such a huge majority and it's totally irrelevant because of our silly constituency-based electoral system wheren Labour has a majority of seats but only 35% of the vote

20:56:29  <edeca> Well er, you just described two situations where one party gets >50% of the vote
20:56:50  <goodger> under this system, labour forms a government despite 65% of the country voting against labour
20:57:08  <edeca> As far fewer than 65% of the country turn up to vote, I doubt that.
20:57:08  <goodger> edeca: yes, but in both situations, the entire county of cornwall votes lib dem, as far as forming a government is concerned

21:00:46  <goodger> I wish the university of kent would hurry up and process my application
21:02:04  <goodger> the process is not difficult --- review grades, and predicted grades, read personal statement, evaluate whether personal statement indicates psychopathy or genius, read tutor reference, then rubber-stamp "yes", "conditional" or "no" on the paper
21:02:14  <goodger> it must take, what, about twenty minutes

21:02:53  <edeca> Smoke, talk, smoke, drink, ignore phones, smoke, drink, talk, ignore email, GOTO 10

21:04:55  <petern> cambridge is easy
21:05:22  <petern> they don't have to take any stupid people to make up numbers
21:05:27  <edeca> Heh
21:06:16  <goodger> petern: they are swamped with tens of thousands of applications with near-identical grades (AAAA, AAAAA, or AAAAAA) and have to rank them
21:06:26  <petern> easy
21:06:32  <petern> AAAAAA > AAAAA > AAAA, etc
21:06:45  <petern> especially if they're foreign
21:06:54  <goodger> yeah, but they have to read the personal statements and references also
21:07:03  <edeca> Nah, it's all opposite if they're foreign as they pay more $$$

21:07:23  <goodger> kent on the other hand has the simple question "will they pass the course?" which is achieved on the basis of evaluating the question "have they got 280 points and two Cs at A-level?"
21:07:34  <goodger> which a sodding computer could do automatically
21:07:56  <edeca> That's complete crap though.  I have friends who got straight As, were accepted to Cambridge and dropped out after 3 weeks as it wasn't for them
21:08:05  <edeca> And I know people who scraped A-levels but managed a 2:1
21:08:24  <edeca> Anyhow, grades (whether A-level or degree) become obsolete the second you get your first job.
21:08:39  <goodger> precisely, when you get into straight-A territories the ranking becomes impossible
21:08:54  <edeca> goodger: Which further demonstrates how polluted the A-level pool is :)
21:09:01  <goodger> edeca: I'll bet the words "first at Oxford" will get you a better degree than "2:1 at Oxford"
21:09:13  <petern> goodger, did your mono stuff get fixed?
21:09:20  <edeca> Eh, a better degree or better job?
21:09:29  <goodger> edeca: I'm aware of that, and I have designed a replacement, but until I can execute a coup d'etat I will be forced to work within it
21:09:40  <goodger> edeca: a better job, sorry. or a better master's degree
21:09:41  <edeca> You designed a replacement
21:09:57  <edeca> goodger: Everybody knows you get your masters for free if you pass at Oxbridge and pay £100 ;)
21:10:05  <goodger> wasn't difficult, simply identifying the problems was the difficult part
21:10:17  <edeca> Does your replacement involve pain for those who are below average?
21:10:21  <goodger> petern: no, I'm still writing the bug description
21:11:08  <goodger> edeca: it includes a mechanism by which the below-average never apply to a university
21:11:16  <frosch123> George: When a industry is constructed the tiles remember whether they were build on land, sea, river or canal. (see tile property 0D and callback 2F) When the tile was sea before it will continue flooding, when it was river or canal before and the ground sprite of the tile is the plain water tile, it will draw canal/river borders. Neighbored river/canal tiles will only draw their borders when the industry tile was built on land.
21:11:51  <frosch123> But that only works for flat tiles, not industries on shore
21:12:59  <edeca> goodger: Harsh, universities keep many people out of the dole office for 3 years, more if they repeat! ;)
21:13:19  <edeca> goodger: Who would work in your local Tesco?
21:14:11  <goodger> edeca: well, I was working on the basis that people of intelligence below 108 are in fact incapable of achieving a university degree
21:14:44  <edeca> goodger: Your system fails to account for those who are merely lazy and do badly at A-level, but have plenty of potential to succeed at university in one specific subject
21:14:46  <goodger> the people working in my local tesco are all middle-aged women who were made redundant by the regional development agency when they demolished the town centre
21:15:07  <SmatZ> women demolished the town centre?

21:26:50  <goodger> frosch123: you also have to be able to draw a 1960s CPU from memory
21:26:53  <edeca> goodger: That's your problem.  You need to get inside the exam and work out what they think they want to know.
21:27:07  <edeca> goodger: That's how I got a first.  Don't work out the correct answer, work out what they want to know.
21:27:37  <goodger> edeca: how can I possibly know what they want to know? there are multiple incorrect answers to questions

21:28:26  <goodger> (GCSE information technology)
21:28:28  <edeca> goodger: Meh, it's an art, but it works.
21:28:48  <goodger> they asked me to put the correct answer, and I have no way of telling what they think is the answer

22:06:22  <petern> it's a difference of 1 mile to a gallon
22:07:43  <goodger> ah, but if you want to compare how much fuel the two cars use, then it is different
22:07:55  <Eddi|zuHause> how did we manage to get from cold temperatures to how far cars can go?
22:08:05  <glx> anyway 20L/100Km may scare them :)
22:08:13  <thingwath> evil imperial units
22:08:16  <Eddi|zuHause> lmao :p
22:09:15  <thingwath> 20l/100km is scary

22:09:43  <glx> but usual for a big V8
22:10:25  <goodger> 19 mpg = 12.37 l/km; 20 mpg = 11.76 l/100km (0.61 less); 21 mpg = 11.20 l/100km (0.56 less)
22:10:56  <glx> so it's a unit for the bigger the better :)
22:11:25  <goodger> so, changing from 20 to 21 is not as effective as changing from 19 to 20
22:12:01  <thingwath> but still by only a tiny difference
22:13:19  <goodger> in fact, changing from 52 to 60 mpg is the same as changing from 19 to 20 mpg
22:13:19  <goodger> in terms of improvement in fuel consumption

22:13:49  <goodger> which is why this sort of scale is very bad when trying to get people to improve their cars
22:14:06  <frosch123> then express it in improvement of propulsion
22:14:27  <entropy> is there any mechanism of changing the minimal production of industries?
22:14:32  <goodger> well, no, it should just be expressed in l/100km all the way through
22:14:34  <frosch123> on in the amount of gas stations you can close

22:16:13  <thingwath> goodger: even for a tanks or other armored vehicles? :)
22:16:28  <glx> co2/km doesn't mean much
22:16:39  <glx> it depends on L/100km

22:16:48  *** ProfFrink is now known as Prof_Frink
22:17:01  <goodger> glx: CO2/km is in fact the fundamental unit of fuel economy
22:17:29  <goodger> a litre of diesel fuel contains more energy than a litre of gasoline
22:17:29  <goodger> so comparing diesels and petrols on the basis of L/100km is pointless
22:17:35  <glx> but for common people it means nothing
22:17:36  <petern> as i understand it, at some point some us car makers pumped extra air into the exhaust to lower the %age of bad stuff
22:17:51  <thingwath> well, there is a myth, that tank has 100l/100km :)
22:18:02  <petern> what?
22:18:17  <glx> thingwath: no it's true :)
22:18:18  <Sacro> FAT BOTTOMED GIRLS YOU MAKE THE ROCKIN' WORLD GO ROUND
22:18:37  <thingwath> true for which tank?
22:18:44  <goodger> thingwath: about 700 I think
22:18:44  <goodger> for some tanks
22:18:47  <goodger> some arbitrary tank
22:18:51  <thingwath> (and what fuel)
22:18:57  <Vikthor> glx: depends on which tank and  terrain it ravels trough
22:19:01  <SmatZ> and what 100km
22:19:12  <thingwath> well, it doesn't get that low
22:19:25  <SmatZ> city/highway/forest/water/desert...
22:19:31  <SmatZ> combined :)
22:19:41  <glx> and usually the unit is L/h for those
22:19:42  <entropy> tanks don't use gasoline :)
22:19:49  <petern> entropy: wrong
22:19:56  <SmatZ> indeed, glx :)
22:20:48  <petern> when do we find a cheap source of hydrogen?
22:20:52  <entropy> no, for example, russian T-80 have a gas turbine
22:20:57  <thingwath> old german tanks had gasoline engines
22:21:12  <goodger> petern: we have one now, it is harvestable cheaply from the burning of natural gas
22:21:39  <goodger> when we run out of natural gas we will probably be forced to electrolyse water, which will have to be powered by solar or something
22:21:44  <entropy> abd t-90 uses diesel engine
22:22:31  <Vikthor> goodger: ehmm, natural gas is not currently much available around Europe :)
22:22:57  <thingwath> Russia is still in Europe, partly :o)
22:23:03  <goodger> true...
22:23:14  <fjb> I found the diesel consumption of the german Leopard 2 tank:
22:23:19  <fjb> Straße: ca. 340 l/100 km, ca. 340 km
22:23:20  <fjb>
22:23:22  <fjb> GelÀnde: ca. 530 l/100 km, ca. 220 km
22:23:23  <fjb>  Mittel: ca. 410 l/100 km, ca. 280 km
22:23:25  <fjb>  Standlauf: 12,5 l/h, 72–93 Stunden (bei 900–1.160 Liter Kraftstoffmenge)
22:23:26  <Vikthor> thingwath: But most of it's gas reservers aren't anyway
22:23:49  <Vikthor> * its and *reserves
22:24:53  <Eddi|zuHause> fjb: if you then consider that the thing can go 120km/h
22:25:14  <thingwath> where?
22:25:24  <Eddi|zuHause> you need to refill twice before you reach paris :p
22:25:25  <frosch123> verically falling
22:25:28  <fjb> But still quite much.
22:26:16  <thingwath> another question is how far it can go before the engine need replacement
22:28:26  <fjb> Engine replacement in the field takes about 15 mins, so you are not delayed that much.
22:29:27  <thingwath> new engines are expensive :)
22:30:09  <Eddi|zuHause> i don't think the engine of the tank is the most expensive :p
22:30:10  <fjb> Nobody considers that when buying or using military equipment. :-)
22:30:39  <Eddi|zuHause> but i was not in a tank unit, i don't knwo
22:30:50  <thingwath> But I want to conquer the world... and I have only very limited budget :/
22:31:13  <goodger> thingwath: get venture capital
22:31:17  <frosch123> no, it is important that you can get spare parts for 50 years

22:40:41  <frosch123> as long as harddisk capacity increases as fast as your needs there is no problem
22:41:29  <fjb> But you have to copy everything over and over again. Most people forget about that.
22:41:36  <thingwath> it increases much faster, few last years :-)
22:41:37  <petern> goodger, as i understand it the C64 disk controller was 'special' in that software could run on it
22:41:52  <petern> and thus disks could be whatever format chosen...

23:09:27  <Aali> thats not bad, speed will suffer from that 2x45 curve though :)
23:09:34  <glx> and click at the wrong signal :)
