00:00:25  <planetmaker> Earth is 5e24kg. The asteroid belt... I guess of the order 1e20kg
00:00:39  <planetmaker> maybe even less
00:01:49  <planetmaker> wiki sais 3e21kg
00:02:09  <Rubidium> that sounds about right-ish
00:02:10  <Eddi|zuHause> my table doesn't cover the asteroid belt
00:02:37  <planetmaker> Mars is 6e23kg
00:02:44  <Eddi|zuHause> so that's 0.003
00:02:57  <Eddi|zuHause> mars is 0.64
00:03:06  <Eddi|zuHause> and earth is 5.97
00:03:40  <Eddi|zuHause> so in the asteroid belt is actually nothing useful...
00:04:07  <Eddi|zuHause> moon is 0.073
00:04:17  <planetmaker> ;-) Some iron is there. And carbon
00:04:29  <Eddi|zuHause> so that's even factor 20 more...
00:05:05  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: i mean in context of artificial planet [with useful gravitation]
00:05:18  <ccfreak2k> Aha.
00:05:25  <ccfreak2k> I finally tracked the next bug down.
00:05:31  <planetmaker> besides: Ceres alone is 9e20kg of the Asteroid belt's mass.
00:05:41  <Eddi|zuHause> ccfreak2k: solving one bug creates two new ones
00:05:55  <ccfreak2k> Oh you.
00:06:21  <Eddi|zuHause> ccfreak2k: it's how programmers ensure their jobs ;)
00:06:28  <ccfreak2k> OpenTTD is trying to open/list "carda:/lang/", while it should be either "carda:/openttd/lang/" or "/openttd/lang".
00:06:32  *** bryjen [~bryjen@75.81.201.131] has joined #openttd
00:07:02  <Eddi|zuHause> ccfreak2k: then you did not configure personal_dir and shared_dir correctly
00:07:08  <planetmaker> Eddi|zuHause: they're constantly created ;-) But I guess they're natural ones. Artificial... you can buy stocks and invest millions. ;-) The outlook to realization might be worse than a true skyride with Virgin Galactic
00:07:21  <ccfreak2k> Obviously not, but I've been trying to figure out what would be correct.
00:07:45  *** ptr_ [~peter@c213-89-142-224.bredband.comhem.se] has quit [Quit: Zzzzzz]
00:07:54  <ccfreak2k> Basically everything should be in /openttd, except for the binary which is in /.
00:08:30  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: well, unless we "solve" the relativity, only planets within our solar system will be useful ;)
00:08:32  <planetmaker> ccfreak2k: then you might want to modify the make bundle command or add a new one
00:08:46  <ccfreak2k> I'm using my own makefile.
00:08:54  <planetmaker> Eddi|zuHause: that depends. Perceived travel time on board might actually be quite ok
00:09:04  <planetmaker> But on Earth it might be eons
00:09:30  <planetmaker> But still... you'd need speeds of >~0.9c
00:09:46  <Eddi|zuHause> well, you can limit the effects if you only travel at something like 1/4c
00:09:49  <planetmaker> acceleration sucks ;-)
00:09:56  <Eddi|zuHause> but you're enroute 4 times longer then
00:10:02  <planetmaker> yes, but then travel is already long ;-)
00:10:25  <Eddi|zuHause> so you only have a handful of reachable stars within the lifetime of the crew
00:10:27  <planetmaker> perceived time is not linear with speed ;-)
00:11:03  <planetmaker> with 0.999c you can travel quite far. Further than 100LY in a human's life time.
00:11:09  <Rubidium> planetmaker: just use the Oort Cloud for materials :)
00:11:28  <planetmaker> @calc (1/(1-0.99^2)
00:11:28  <DorpsGek> planetmaker: Error: unexpected EOF while parsing (<string>, line 1)
00:11:35  <Eddi|zuHause> ö
00:11:35  <planetmaker> @calc (1/(1-0.99^2))
00:11:35  <DorpsGek> planetmaker: Error: Something in there wasn't a valid number.
00:11:41  <Rubidium> ^ -> **
00:11:42  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: **
00:11:44  <planetmaker> @calc (1/(1-0.99**2))
00:11:44  <DorpsGek> planetmaker: 50.2512562814
00:11:53  <planetmaker> 50 times time-stretch
00:12:00  <ccfreak2k> Plus 0.25.
00:12:41  <planetmaker> so 2500 LY in 50 years lifetime
00:13:11  <Rubidium> but... a return trip means over 5000 years pass on earth, right?

00:13:19  <planetmaker> No return flights ;-)
00:13:27  <planetmaker> And yes, it means that
00:14:14  <planetmaker> This calculation has one nasty glitch: it doesn't consider acceleration ;-)
00:14:23  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: what if mankind builds faster space ships within these 5000 years? and surpasses the original crow?
00:14:32  <planetmaker> sure
00:14:42  <planetmaker> what should happen?
00:14:59  <planetmaker> the original crew will find a settled planet ;-)
00:15:03  <Eddi|zuHause> they find a fully populated system
00:15:12  <Eddi|zuHause> with technologies far beyond their own
00:15:26  <planetmaker> and they'll be gaped at like oddities from a far distant past. Which even would be true

00:15:37  <Eddi|zuHause> and a race that they might not recognize as human
00:15:54  <planetmaker> 5000 years is evolutionary no time
00:16:16  <ccfreak2k> Time enough for love.
00:16:16  <Rubidium> not for linguistics :)
00:16:26  <planetmaker> Except you assume evolution of Borgs or so.
00:16:33  <Eddi|zuHause> not natural evolution, but genetic engineering?
00:17:18  <planetmaker> Eddi|zuHause: well... that's possible. Would be an interesting thing to observe as 3rd party ;-)

00:18:13  <planetmaker> "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic"
00:18:46  <planetmaker> that would be the other interesting experiment to observe when those civs would meet
00:18:51  <Eddi|zuHause> "any technology distinguishible from magic is not sufficiently advanced yet" :p
00:19:28  <planetmaker> you'll not perceive the technology of your time as magic. It's usual.
00:19:46  <planetmaker> But... what would today look like to a brass-age human?
00:19:53  <Eddi|zuHause> i know plenty of people who consider my programs as magic :)
00:19:54  <planetmaker> *bronce
00:20:19  <planetmaker> hehe
00:20:30  <ccfreak2k> planetmaker, someone else said that a few mins ago while some guy was going on about polymers.
00:20:54  <Eddi|zuHause> and that's really simple stuff as in "when tank == 90% full => close valve" :p
00:23:41  <planetmaker> god help, if you programme Leuna ;-)
00:24:03  <Eddi|zuHause> not that big ;)
00:24:23  <Rubidium> Eddi|zuHause: and then wondering why the tank overflowed?
00:24:34  <planetmaker> lol
00:24:49  <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: no, in the program it's actually a >= ;)
00:25:12  <Rubidium> yeah, sorry but tank filledness is a double, so the 90% is converted to a double and then we do == :)
00:25:33  <planetmaker> hehe
00:25:55  <planetmaker> With what do you programme such stuff, Eddi|zuHause ?
00:26:28  <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: it's actually a 16-bit integer
00:26:55  <planetmaker> I only know LabView myself, and I know of some Siemens stuff which runs some larger systems
00:27:18  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: it's an SPS
00:27:23  <Rubidium> LabView, is that that drag'n'program 'language'?
00:27:31  <planetmaker> Yes and no

00:28:05  <Rubidium> hmm, remember the good times... linking matlab, java and labview together :)
00:28:22  <planetmaker> yeah, that's the 'no' part ;-)
00:28:23  <Rubidium> (for some reason image acquisition in matlab wasn't fast enough)
00:29:06  <planetmaker> well... image aquisition speed is ressource heave ;-)
00:29:30  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: http://www.abbplc.com/pdf/907AC1131english.pdf
00:29:31  <planetmaker> and shows also nicely the difference between brutto and netto data rate

00:30:27  <Eddi|zuHause> that's the IDE that got shipped with the module
00:31:24  <Eddi|zuHause> they allow programming in 5 different "languages"
00:31:51  <Rubidium> Eddi|zuHause: same way like .Net is a dozen or so languages, right?
00:32:04  <planetmaker> sounds very similar to the SPS the drop tower in Bremen uses for its operation
00:32:10  <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: yeah, something like that
00:32:59  <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: "Instruction List (IL)" is assembler like, "Structured Text (ST)" is pascal-like, the others are some kind of graphical representation

02:25:11  <Priski> I was just thinkin if it was any good, is there any good reason using it instead of Subversion?
02:25:32  <glx> it's good for local development
02:25:42  <Rubidium> it all depends on what you want from your VCS

02:29:04  *** roboboy [3aad2910@webchat.mibbit.com] has joined #openttd
02:29:47  <valhallasw> PeterT: yes. the disadvantage is a steeper learning curve compared to svn
02:30:08  <valhallasw> my head has problems keeping track of what-is-what
02:31:40  <Rubidium> if you want an increasing revision number that's the same on *all* checkouts, then use subversion. If you don't care about revision numbers you can choose either
02:32:05  <Rubidium> if you want to do fancy things during tagging, use subversion
02:32:39  <Rubidium> if you want people to easily make a local testing repository, don't use subversion
02:32:53  <Rubidium> if you want to have all history locally, don't use subversion
02:32:58  <PeterT> Use git
02:33:04  <Rubidium> if you want to commit when off-line, don't use subversion
02:33:08  <valhallasw> additionally, if you want to have an headache, use git-svn
02:33:26  <valhallasw> although it probably is great once the headache clears
02:33:39  <Priski> hmmm thanks Rubidium
02:34:26  <Rubidium> valhallasw: for that we use svn->hg->git :)
02:34:58  <valhallasw> I have never used hg :)
02:36:01  <Rubidium> oh, and tortoisehg seems to support ssh out-of-the-box where tortoisesvn needs plink or so (or that might be from long ago)
02:36:43  <Rubidium> oh, if you're using Windows, consider not using git because it doesn't like Windows' file system (it's horribly slow)
02:36:51  <Rubidium> it's extremely fast on linux though
02:37:15  <Priski> I plan to NOT use git
02:37:36  <Priski> but not because of my lowsy windöws
02:37:38  <Priski> =)
02:38:42  * valhallasw likes colinux quite a lot
02:39:00  <valhallasw> windows as gui, linux in the background for console stuff
02:39:08  <valhallasw> and it's not even terribly slow
02:40:24  <Priski> I just was thinking putting project into google code since SF is the great mammoth which has some gas sometimes
02:41:38  <Priski> the simplicity appeals to me
02:42:24  <Rubidium> the eula or whatever it may be called doesn't appeal to me

02:47:50  <Rubidium> but I agree that SF was sucky and annoying and they have managed to make it even suckier and more annoying than it already was
02:48:30  <Rubidium> seriously... I can mark only one binary as windows, one as osx and one as linux? What about x64?
02:49:04  <Priski> =)
02:50:02  <Priski> Rubidium: whats tha problematic part about that EULA?
02:51:17  <Priski> just reading these licences, cant even be sure if I read the right one, there seem to be few of them here...
02:51:54  <Rubidium> that I can read the TOS in such a manner that Google is allowed to change the license. If I can interpret it in that way, then a lawyer can too and presto... my project can be released by Google under a license that they like
02:52:43  <Rubidium> bye bye clause that gives you the right to request the source if you have a GPL licensed project
02:53:10  <Rubidium> also Google may, without notice, just remove whatever they like or just plainly terminate the whole thing
02:53:28  <Rubidium> woopsie... there goes your nice wiki page with the manual
02:54:20  <Priski> yeah, but then again, I was planning to use google code as an intermediate step if project goes well

02:55:21  <Priski> at least for future versions
02:55:27  <Rubidium> true, but be aware that migrating a wiki or bug tracker is cumbersome

03:16:46  <Priski> only thing is how to deal with managing "subrepos" since you cannot co one part of the repos
03:17:31  <valhallasw> I think they solved that in a typical programmer sense
03:17:36  <Priski> another thing is the size of that thing since you need the copy of the whole repo

16:37:11  <sparr> Yexo: can you think of any feasible way for such servers to continue to work without a custom binary?  requiring custom binaries will cut the playerbase significantly, I think.  I currently have 8 or 9 binaries installed, but I think I'm an exception.
16:37:32  <sparr> Yexo: put another way, what is the "right" way to accomplish what those servers are doing?
16:37:43  <Yexo> I don't know what they are doing exactly
16:38:08  <Yexo> a clean option could be to provide a patch to get the functionality they need included in openttd
16:38:36  <Yexo> but most of those server owners don't want to make their changes public, so I don't know if they want to do that
16:38:57  <sparr> the server is building industries, clearing land, adding signs, etc

16:42:35  <planetmaker> and there they can do what they want
16:42:45  <sparr> the players are interested in the stats mid-game for strategy

16:44:12  <sparr> ahh, by enabling the Key, I see that now
16:44:38  <Eddi|zuHause> sparr: basically these servers are cheating by circumventing measures that are specifically designed to prevent cheating
16:44:51  <Eddi|zuHause> this can't possibly work cleanly
16:44:55  <sparr> Eddi|zuHause: yes, but their goals are legitimate, and thus there should be a non-cheating route to reach them
16:45:24  <planetmaker> they are. But there are better ways than hacking ;-)
16:45:42  <Eddi|zuHause> sparr: but those server owners have shown no intention to get that functionality into trunk
16:45:45  <sparr> those two projects aren't the only ones running custom servers, i imagine others will be bit by this change as well
16:46:11  <planetmaker> sparr, no one disputes that there are good ideas among those.
16:46:24  <planetmaker> But no server owner ever showed anything which would make it usable for all.
16:46:37  <planetmaker> As such they cannot expect custom-tailored backdoors for them
16:46:40  <sparr> until now they didn't need to, everyone could implement it a different way

16:47:08  <sparr> Yexo: I'm going to try.
16:47:29  <sparr> there should be some trivial way to allow player-ish commands to be sent from no player.
16:47:37  <planetmaker> sparr, that problem already existed, btw. also from 0.6.x -> 0.7.x
16:47:52  <sparr> the complaint in the bug is that it will cause a null pointer dereference...  crazy idea, why not check if the pointer is null first, and don't dereference it if so?
16:48:13  <Yexo> that is also explained there: every command would have to check if the curernt company is valid
16:48:21  <Yexo> instead the check is done now at a single location
16:48:52  <planetmaker> besides, a server could undo that change.
16:49:01  <planetmaker> Though that certainly would not be sensible
16:49:07  *** aber [~Adium@gb049.stw.stud.uni-saarland.de] has joined #openttd
16:49:14  <Yexo> planetmaker: no, that check is also done on all clients
16:49:16  <sparr> planetmaker: i'm of the impression that undoing just the check would cause segfaults
16:49:54  <planetmaker> hm, ok, then the DoCommand cannot be executed that easily
16:50:06  <frosch123> everytime i join the topic is the same... why don't they just use an ai?
16:50:32  <sparr> frosch123: because that would be a lot more complex (including writing the ai), and would add annoyance for the players (having to filter the AI from charts)
16:50:32  <planetmaker> <planetmaker> sparr, have a rich company run by an AI <-- :-) @ frosch123
16:50:41  *** Wizzleby [~wizzleby@pool-108-2-17-131.phlapa.east.verizon.net] has joined #openttd
16:51:08  <sparr> frosch123: and, not being completely familiar with the AI system, I might suggest there are things an AI can't do that a server can fake a player doing?
16:51:14  <Yexo> sparr: you wouldn't have to actually write an AI, just create an Ai company and let the server fake all commands it curerntly does as coming from that AI
16:51:23  <Rubidium> Yexo: I have seen what they did with 0.7.5C, I can only extrapolate that what they do on the server is worse
16:51:54  <Rubidium> and if the ratings aren't enough, just kill the AI and start a new one... instant rating reset :)
16:51:55  <planetmaker> sparr, an AI is a player
16:52:05  <sparr> Yexo: ahh, point taken
16:52:19  <Rubidium> oh shoot, did I just give them the solution to their problem?
16:52:56  <planetmaker> Rubidium, the money issue (if they need some) remains
16:53:20  <Yexo> planetmaker: as long as the maximum loan is enough money that is no problem
16:53:21  <planetmaker> sparr, but then: coming up with a decent patch would be something productive.
16:53:21  <Rubidium> planetmaker: only if they want to construct industries I reckon
16:53:36  <planetmaker> Rubidium, that's what I thought of. I think it was also mentioned
16:54:02  <sparr> ok, ignoring the technical aspects for a moment, let me come at this from a community standpoint...  a significant fraction (as much as 30% at times) of the active multiplayer playerbase of openttd plays on goal servers.
16:54:09  <planetmaker> 17:38 <sparr> the server is building industries, clearing land, adding signs, etc <--there
16:55:00  <planetmaker> sparr, and? If there are no patches what should be done?
16:55:04  <Yexo> sparr: that is no argument
16:55:20  <planetmaker> Make it proper and you'll get your support
16:55:29  <Yexo> given the amount of downloads and the amount of multiplayer players online at any given time I'm quite sure the largest part of the openttd players doesn't play multiplayer
16:55:33  <sparr> Rubidium: killing and restarting the AI generates message spam to all of the players.  I am unsure, but it might also result in weird player numbering gaps.
16:55:38  <planetmaker> I'm quite sure that there are devs who like ideas of that kind, too
16:55:55  <Rubidium> Yexo: no, it's a very good one... about 0.0001% of the community is grievers and the like, just remove passwords from companies and such because it's only troublesome for the rest
16:56:13  <planetmaker> :-D
16:56:17  *** Skiddles [~notme@cm67.epsilon84.maxonline.com.sg] has joined #openttd
16:56:25  <Rubidium> also it's a good reason to remove all packet checking as only 0.0001% wants to do bad things (read: cheat or crash the server)
16:57:55  <sparr> Rubidium: the solutions being suggested here involving an AI are far more hackish than what is being done in 0.7.5.  an AI would add useless entries to various menus and charts, would add unwanted message spam (I think), would require more code than the current system
16:58:03  <Yexo> and lets use floats like 0.7.5C, it's very well tested and doesn't desync at all
16:58:31  <Ammler> [17:55] <Yexo> given the amount of downloads and the amount of multiplayer players online at any given time I'm quite sure the largest part of the openttd players doesn't play multiplayer <-- downloading isn't playing ;-)
16:58:48  <sparr> Rubidium: i think .0001% is low for that...  i'd say more like .1% (1/1000)
16:59:13  <sparr> Ammler: good point.  I have downloaded openttd at least fifty times, mostly for different binaries.  I am but one player
16:59:39  <Yexo> sparr: agreed, using an Ai company is a hack. however what is done in 0.7.5 is hack too, no reason to allow that again. I'm not against improving the options for a competitive game in trunk, I'm just not interested enough to write it myself
16:59:49  <sparr> Yexo: what if there was always a dummy company in the pool, that never appeared in any interface?  not specific to goal servers, just always there period.
17:00:09  <planetmaker> sparr, that'd mean to remove one possible player slot
17:00:18  <sparr> planetmaker: the AI option does that too, no?
17:00:22  <planetmaker> why should that be done?
17:00:41  <planetmaker> sparr, sure. But why do you want to remove for 70% of the players the option to have one company more?
17:00:43  <planetmaker> Why?
17:00:54  <sparr> I don't think that follows
17:01:11  <planetmaker> Or it cannot have signs
17:01:21  <planetmaker> and other stuff
17:01:24  <sparr> if you are implementing the permanent dummy company and making it ignored by all of the other elements that list companies then you can make it ignored by the slot counter as well
17:01:48  <planetmaker> The problem is the map array
17:02:21  <planetmaker> If you don't want to build anything though...

17:02:56  <Yexo> if you don't want to build anything you might as well use COMPANY_SPECTATOR
17:03:33  <sparr> building things is less important, but still a factor.
17:03:42  <planetmaker> Yexo, spectator cannot delete anything, build no signs and no industries. A company could
17:04:15  <Yexo> planetmaker: spectator would be able to build signs if someone wrote a patch for it
17:04:26  <planetmaker> sure :-)
17:04:28  <Yexo> deleting stuff and building industries should be company-only indeed
17:04:39  <Yexo> but then that company has to be a valid company, so you remove a normal company slot
17:04:48  <planetmaker> yep
17:05:11  <planetmaker> unless you make it a non-normal one and allow cheating for everyone by means of that company

17:07:50  <Yexo> completely agreed
17:08:07  <Rubidium> we could just compile all binaries with --disable-network. Then the problem's solved too

17:10:16  <Rubidium> Yexo: some pseudorandom, but not really random, garbage that was send to the server and that was then not used at the server

17:10:24  <planetmaker> he :-)
17:10:36  <Rubidium> Ammler: what were your intentions with it?
17:10:54  <Ammler> we liked to use it like keys.
17:10:54  <planetmaker> The intention was to ban the unique ID in case of (incompetent) grievers

21:05:53  <HackaLittleBit> yexo: do you have any idear what would be a reasonable penalty if train is longer than platform?
21:06:12  <Yexo> the current penalty?
21:06:19  <Yexo> or why is it unreasonable?
21:07:51  <HackaLittleBit> Because of the long loading time also the rating goes down
21:08:02  <planetmaker> That's sensible, isn't it?
21:08:12  <HackaLittleBit> no
21:08:22  <planetmaker> I'd rate the company also bad, if I'd have to crawl through the mud to the wagon
21:08:34  <HackaLittleBit> passenger yes
21:08:46  <HackaLittleBit> pragnent women also yes
21:08:51  <HackaLittleBit> oil no
21:08:58  <Yexo> the rating doesn't go down if you have a long loading time
21:09:00  <planetmaker> oh, coal cannot complain. But if I order coal and they drop it the next street, I'd give it a bad rating, too
21:09:13  <planetmaker> Yexo: indirectly: less frequent service
21:09:17  <HackaLittleBit> :)
21:09:44  <Yexo> well the less frequent service is a choice you make
21:09:59  <planetmaker> with slow loading there's a lower max. throughput.
21:10:19  <planetmaker> But then I don't understand what's wrong with the current situation either
21:10:20  <Yexo> that's also a penalty for your own choices
21:10:27  <planetmaker> yup :-)
21:10:38  <HackaLittleBit> not only that, long trains disrupt trafffic flow
21:10:54  <HackaLittleBit> alsothats a penalty

21:11:15  <HackaLittleBit> because I like them
21:12:48  <HackaLittleBit> but did you see the code?
21:13:22  <Yexo> not recently
21:13:22  <HackaLittleBit> 			unloading_time += (overhang * unloading_time << 1) / 8;
21:13:48  <HackaLittleBit> unloading time is something like 40 or 20
21:14:40  <Yexo> now I'm only wondering why that line doesn't read: unloading_time += (overhang * unloading_time) / 4;

21:16:07  <Eddi|zuHause> the use of << is probably against coding style there

21:18:39  <Eddi|zuHause> every modern compiler can replace *2 with a shift. using * over << in arithmetic expressions increases readability

21:24:40  <Eddi|zuHause> yay for magic numbers ;)
21:24:46  <ccfreak2k> What's the order of operations for multiply and shift?
21:25:10  <Yexo> that doesn't matter here
21:25:12  <Eddi|zuHause> ccfreak2k: shifting is a multiplying operation, so they likely have same priority
21:26:17  <ccfreak2k> Also, how well does openttd work with thread_none?
21:26:44  <Eddi|zuHause> ccfreak2k: afair you can disable threads by a configure option
21:26:59  <ccfreak2k> I'm using a custom makefile.
21:27:02  <aber> nope, ist (*/%)(+-)(<<>>)

21:28:01  <HackaLittleBit> yexo the rating goes realy down with long loading time
21:28:09  <ccfreak2k> You mean NO_THREADS? :)
21:28:24  <frosch123> ccfreak2k: threads are used during map generation, autosave, and sdl video rendering. maybe also sound
21:29:17  <ccfreak2k> frosch123, what I meant by my question is, would disabling multithreaded support be some kind of mortal sin and cause my build to break in unspeakable ways?
21:29:18  <Rubidium> ./configure --without-thread
21:29:33  <frosch123> likely not
21:29:34  <Rubidium> ./configure --without-threads
21:30:00  <Rubidium> no idea whether it actually works though
21:30:11  <Eddi|zuHause> ccfreak2k: no, it should not break anything, but you lose some gimmics like progress bar during world generation and saving in the background
21:30:31  <ccfreak2k> That's ok, I'll deal with it.
21:31:27  <ccfreak2k> I -really- should figure out what's causing it to hang, though.

22:14:22  <frosch123> it did not compile any languages after french
22:15:07  <SmatZ> right
22:15:18  <SmatZ> so it fails because it tries to load czech.lng, but it is missing?
22:15:24  <SmatZ> whoa :-p
22:16:31  <frosch123> so Nite_Owl, you have to pick one of the other languages :)
22:16:50  <SmatZ> hmm
22:16:54  <SmatZ> but it doesn't crash on linux
22:16:59  <SmatZ> when I remove czech.lng
22:17:08  <SmatZ> it would be win-specific, and that's strange :)
22:17:09  <frosch123> maybe english.lng is more important
22:17:35  <SmatZ> even if I remove english.lng
22:17:40  <frosch123> or the broken french

22:27:50  <Rubidium> to stop it from crashing you'd probably need to add some metadata to the language file to check for validity, i.e. a checksum

23:12:40  <rait> so ... i fired up beta4 and it's still spanish. how do i change it?
23:13:22  <rait> never mind ...
23:14:25  <rait> is only the latest nightly affected?
23:14:45  <Rubidium> only the nightly build with MSVC
23:15:59  <HackaLittleBit> not only also with msys
23:16:39  <Rubidium> true, but way way less than MSVC
23:17:43  <HackaLittleBit> you mean slower?
23:17:51  <Rubidium> i.e. msys builds (or all non MSVC builds) only crash if you used French, MSVC builds crash if the chosen langauge was alphabetically less than or equal to french

23:25:15  <PeterT> ccfreak2k: Congrats on getting ti to work on GameCube!
23:25:24  <PeterT> too bad no one has a gamecube anymore
23:25:33  <ccfreak2k> Au contraire.
23:25:40  <ccfreak2k> It would run perfectly well on the Wii as well.

23:37:45  <sparr> Is it possible for a newgrf to affect vehicles from all other GRFs?  cost, running cost, speed, etc
