00:02:50  <Zuu> Yexo: Do you think the airport bug could show an assert in ai_gui.cpp? I guess I better upload the crash report anyways.
00:04:03  <Yexo> an assert in ai_ugi.cpp? not sure about that
00:04:09  <Yexo> if you have a crash.cmp please upload it
00:04:16  <Zuu> Sure, it's underway..
00:05:27  <impactor> Well, so far this round of OpenTTD is going rather well. It looks like I might have mastered the use of one-way signals :D
00:07:42  <Yexo> Zuu: is there an easy way to reproduce your crash?
00:08:13  <Zuu> Haven't tried.
00:08:36  <Zuu> For some reason clicking on "Add this task" doesn't do anything.
00:09:01  <Zuu> Have I attached to much maybe?
00:09:29  <Rubidium> if you're uploading a 3+MB savegame it might not react instantly

00:10:54  <Zuu> Okay but the browser said "Done" and nothing happened. Now I've uploaded the log, dmp and png at least: http://bugs.openttd.org/task/3666
00:13:05  <Yexo> Zuu: that is RC1, so it can't have anything to do with the airport chanegs
00:13:25  <Yexo> hmm, nevermind
00:13:36  <Yexo> why does the gamelog only say 1.0.0-RC1?
00:13:52  <Zuu> Hmm, crash.sav is zero byte so that is maybe why FS couldn't upload it.
00:13:53  <Rubidium> crashing while loading savegame?
00:14:34  <Yexo> Rubidium: no, since it's an assertion in ai_gui.cpp which cannot be triggered while loading the savegame
00:14:43  <Zuu> If you use gamelog on the savegame then you'll see what the person who uploaded the savegame as a report on tt-forums used not me.
00:15:26  <Rubidium> Yexo: the screenshot isn't the right one either; don't see an AI window
00:15:42  <Yexo> oh, true
00:15:57  <Yexo> Zuu: can you also upload this clueless_fail.sav ?
00:16:13  <Zuu> I could but it is the same as at http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=862281#p862281
00:16:27  <Yexo> ok, no need then
00:16:38  <Zuu> I indended to upload it but removed it as FS didn't want to add my task.
00:17:25  <Terkhen> good night
00:17:26  *** Terkhen [~Terkhen@213.68.220.87.dynamic.jazztel.es] has quit [Quit: ...]
00:18:03  <Zuu> I just tried to load the savegame and there was of course no crash :-(
00:19:26  <Zuu> I did many repeted loadings of clueless_fail.sav with some changes to the nut files in between each load. Then suddenly it asserted on one load.
00:20:15  <Zuu> I should also say that it might be that I did not have the AIDebug window open when I clicked to load the savegame.
00:22:30  <Rubidium> Yexo: how 'soon' does FS#3665 autosave5 crash for you? (I guess it's a stl issue with MSVC implementation)
00:22:41  <Fuco> When i start openttd -D, is it possible to redirect output in the ottd window to startard output? (or is that stdout?)

00:22:46  <Yexo> Rubidium: 8 march
00:22:55  <Yexo> so +- 7 days after loading the savegame
00:23:15  <Zuu> Fuco: Yes, if you transform openttd.exe to a console application.
00:23:41  <Yexo> might have to do with msvc, but maybe not
00:23:49  <Yexo> I'm not sure deleting an entry works ok
00:23:54  <Rubidium> Yexo: has been 8 march 3 times already
00:23:55  <Zuu> There is an utility program somewhere which changes one bit somewhere in the excutable to make that change.
00:24:00  <Rubidium> not crashes
00:24:02  <Yexo> but I'll take a look at that tomorrow
00:24:13  <Fuco> mhm, ok
00:24:18  <Fuco> gonna check it ouy
00:24:19  <Yexo> coding after drinking alcohol is not a good idea :p
00:25:26  <Zuu> Doesn't sound way to good condition for coding. :-)

00:27:02  <Rubidium> Zuu: being 'on' tamiflu is probably much worse w.r.t. coding quality
00:30:12  <Zuu> Fuco: If you don't find out how to convert the binary an other option is to compile your own binary and tell the build system to make a console application or just hack in writing to a file in the log function.
00:31:02  <Fuco> well, I'm not feeling like compiling it ;( especially not under windows :D
00:32:05  <impactor> Guh, compiling under windows.
00:32:16  <Rubidium> glx once made a simple tool to convert a binary to a console binary; don't know where it exactly is

01:03:14  * Ammler wonders if 2am really is the lowest usage time :-)
01:03:28  <OwenS> I'd say it's probably ~4am :p
01:03:44  <OwenS> ~4AM TAI that is
01:04:23  * roboboy adds a recomended settings section to his OpenTTD DOS guide
01:04:27  <PeterT> hai roboboy

01:08:09  <Ammler> is your guide "private"? http://wiki.openttd.org/Special:Search?search=dos&fulltext=Search
01:08:20  <roboboy> feck Autosave on a blank 2048X2048 map on a cleron is so slow
01:08:42  <OwenS> Ammler: No, TrueBrain was mentioning it earlier. I presume that DOS is a too short search string
01:08:48  <Yexo> Ammler: http://wiki.openttd.org/OpenTTD_DOS
01:09:07  <Ammler> well, OpenTTD is quite redundant in that wiki :-P
01:09:31  <Ammler> or add some redirects
01:09:58  <OwenS> http://wiki.openttd.org/Special:Whatlinkshere/OpenTTD_DOS <-- Also, orphanned
01:10:29  <roboboy> I didn't know of a suitable article to link to it from
01:10:50  <Yexo> roboboy: ~\OpenTTD\data\ <- is that a valid path on dos? if not, just change it to C:\OpenTTD\data\ or so
01:10:57  * roboboy pondees just rebooting his DOS machine
01:11:26  * OwenS really ought to try a build on his craptop
01:12:00  <PeterT> I added DOS to wiki/OS
01:12:05  <roboboy> http://rbijker.net/openttd/openttd-r19248-DOS.zip is the build I use
01:12:06  <Eddi|zuHause> i don't remember ~ meaning anything in DOS
01:12:39  <OwenS> roboboy: Your machine doesn't have 2048kb of RAM ;-)
01:12:43  <Eddi|zuHause> shouldn't you simply "configure --personal-dir=C:\OpenTTD" or something?
01:12:50  <OwenS> (And take 5 seconds to check it!)
01:13:09  <PeterT> roboboy: The requested URL /openttd/openttd-r19248-DOS.zip was not found on this server.
01:13:20  <Eddi|zuHause> OwenS: 2MB will have trouble even getting the binary into memory

01:13:50  <Eddi|zuHause> there might be ways to get virtual memory in DOS, though
01:13:56  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: And then the 386-SX/20 processor will struggle running it ;-)
01:14:09  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: On a irreplacable hard drive?
01:14:19  <Eddi|zuHause> OwenS: with < 10 vehicles, that shouldn't be a problem :)

01:15:16  <Eddi|zuHause> TT with few vehicles ran fine with 4MB RAM and 25MHz
01:15:53  <Eddi|zuHause> i don't think it ran with 2MB
01:16:12  <Eddi|zuHause> actually, i'm pretty sure it didn't...
01:16:16  * roboboy wonders where to upload the build he uses
01:16:28  <Ammler> http://wiki.openttd.org/Operating_system <-- links to sourceforge
01:16:47  <Eddi|zuHause> Ammler: repair it...
01:17:01  <OwenS> I presume there must be a way to make CWSDPMI support swapping though
01:17:33  <OwenS> (Incidentally, isn't it weird how small a world it is? CWSDPMI was written by the same guy who reverse engineered the Total Annihilation HPI formats)
01:18:15  <Eddi|zuHause> i have no clue what either of these are...
01:18:46  <OwenS> CWSDPMI = Dos Protected Mode Interface provider commonly used with DJGPP
01:18:46  <OwenS> Total Annihilation = Best RTS game ever made :P
01:18:57  <Ammler> Eddi|zuHause: where would you link Linux to?
01:19:01  <roboboy> well I do not recomend anyone run a 2048X2048 map under DOS on an old pc
01:19:15  <Ammler> to my suse repo :-P

01:19:42  <Eddi|zuHause> Ammler: i have not actually read the page...
01:19:44  <SmatZ> OwenS: what DPMI version does CWSDPMI provide?
01:20:01  <OwenS> SmatZ: 0.9. If you want 1.0, use HDPMI
01:20:13  <Eddi|zuHause> Ammler: what should be on there? links to download locations for openttd?
01:20:21  * SmatZ will try HDPMI
01:20:24  <Ammler> currently it links to the sourceforge files
01:20:26  <OwenS> But NTVDM, DOSBOX and DOSEMU only provide 0.9, so it's a bit moot :p
01:20:29  <SmatZ> hmm was 1.0 ever widespread?
01:20:48  <Ammler> maybe just openttd.org/download
01:20:51  <Eddi|zuHause> Ammler: link it to www.openttd.org/download-stable?
01:20:58  <Ammler> yes :-)
01:21:27  <Eddi|zuHause> and also say many distributions have it in their repository
01:21:34  *** Zorni [~zorn@e177226074.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #openttd
01:21:44  <Ammler> that is already there
01:22:13  <SmatZ> I remember I was playing with DPMI and was disappointed my DPMI manager (whatever it was) supports just 0.9
01:22:16  <Ammler> hmm, what happens, if a windows user clicks it?
01:22:18  <SmatZ> but it was long time ago :-/
01:22:24  <Eddi|zuHause> Ammler: and i would reorder the page
01:22:31  <OwenS> SmatZ: HDPMI even includes services to run simple Windows programs...
01:22:34  <Eddi|zuHause> first the official ports
01:22:39  <Eddi|zuHause> then the inofficial ports

01:26:31  <Ammler> Eddi|zuHause: the unofficial have a bold [*]
01:26:39  <Ammler> he, should be added to Mac
01:26:48  <Eddi|zuHause> Ammler: yes, but that * is bad...

01:29:57  <roboboy> how do I embed an image in an article on the wiki?
01:31:55  <Ammler> just link the image
01:32:00  <roboboy> ok
01:32:05  <Ammler> but maybe you need to upload it
01:32:16  <roboboy> I have
01:32:16  <Ammler> not every wiki support external links
01:32:54  * roboboy wonders where the best place in his guide is for a screenshot of DOS OpenTTD exiting as proof
01:33:02  <Eddi|zuHause> linking external images is a bad idea anyway
01:33:21  <Ammler> then it is [[Image:File.png|alt text]] as explained on the upload page ;-)
01:34:36  <PeterT> I got it
01:34:54  <PeterT> Also, that image still doesn't prove that it was run on DOS
01:35:10  <PeterT> I could edit the STR and recompile, then have "an exit to dos"
01:36:33  <fjb> Btw., OpenTTD runs flawless on FreeBSD.
01:36:38  <OwenS> And Solaris
01:36:57  <OwenS> Though it refuses to compile with SunCC
01:37:39  <Eddi|zuHause> Ammler: you confuse "supported" with "binaries being provided"
01:39:16  <Ammler> yes, no binaries = no support
01:39:31  <Eddi|zuHause> that is not entirely true...
01:39:54  <Ammler> yes, but IMO :-)
01:40:00  <Eddi|zuHause> "supported" means "we solve problems that occur on these systems"
01:40:14  <Eddi|zuHause> along with a "it generally works"
01:40:35  <PeterT> roboboy: http://wiki.openttd.org/OpenTTD_DOS#Running_OpenTTD
01:40:57  <fjb> Why do I need binaries when ./configure; gmake does all I need?
01:41:00  <Eddi|zuHause> "providing binaries" is a step beyond that...
01:41:35  <roboboy> thanx
01:42:05  <PeterT> Yeap
01:42:25  * roboboy ponders seriously trying to get DJGPP working and compiling OpenTTD on DOS
01:43:20  <PeterT> I think you've said "DOS" 100% out of your last 10 /me's
01:45:34  <roboboy> lol
01:45:52  <roboboy> I shall try to reduce that
01:46:37  <PeterT> It wasn't a complaint
01:46:59  <U1> I got ice in my beard
01:47:01  <U1> just saying
01:47:14  * fjb can not imagine why anybody is that fond of DOS.
01:48:37  <OwenS> "CC: Fatal error in ld: Segmentation Fault (core dumped)" <-- Thats not good!
01:48:41  <Eddi|zuHause> yeah, DDOS is way better!!
01:49:04  <U1> Eddi|zuHause: not if you wanna run ottd
01:51:52  <OwenS> U1: Hmm, but DRDOS would be :
01:51:53  <OwenS> :p
01:54:05  <U1> not sure it would even run on that :P

01:56:02  * OwenS wonders why autoconf checks for headers like "linux/ata.h" when uname returns "SunOS" :P
01:58:38  <Eddi|zuHause> autoconf per definiton checks lots of unnecessary things...
01:58:54  <OwenS> True. Everyone should use CMake :p
01:59:22  <OwenS> (And nothing's more unnecessary than recursive autoconfs *cough GCC*)
02:03:21  <DaleStan> * fjb can not imagine why anybody is that fond of DOS. <-- Because it doesn't do anything, and hence permits a properly written application to run far faster than on any other OS^H^Hprogram loader.
02:04:31  <OwenS> DaleStan: In practice, you'll find PIO makes everything much slower than under any other OS ;-)
02:04:32  <fjb> DaleStan: We can agree that DOS is not really an OS.
02:05:33  <fjb> And things may run fast as long an they are happy with 640K.
02:07:06  <DaleStan> Well, in that case, a "properly written application" obviously doesn't use PIO :p

02:07:55  <OwenS> DaleStan: So your app now incorporates PCI & SATA drivers to get DMA :P
02:08:06  <OwenS> And your app becomes it's own OS
02:09:04  <Eddi|zuHause> OwenS: under DOS it was common practice that every program came with its own drivers
02:09:23  <fjb> They have to anyway when they need more than 640k. Using RAM above that in real mode is dead slow.
02:09:25  <Eddi|zuHause> typically sound card and graphics card drivers for games
02:09:27  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: I'm aware. I'm glad we don't do that any more
02:09:51  <OwenS> fjb: Not necessarily. If you switch to unreal mode you can keep using DOS and the BIOS since they don't trample %fs and %gs
02:10:24  <Eddi|zuHause> OwenS: yes, but now you have abstraction layers that generally make it slower than hand optimised drivers to your programs needs
02:11:14  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: I think the bigger cause is privilege separation, i.e, firefox-shouldn't-be-able-to-hang-my-PC-overhead
02:11:15  <fjb> Hand optimized code for modern CPUs...
02:11:23  <Eddi|zuHause> fjb: why would DOS programs need to be run in real mode?
02:11:45  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: Because DOS runs in real mode. If you run in protected mode, you can't use DOS, and ergo DOS was just your bootloader ;-)
02:11:56  <fjb> Eddi|zuHause: DOS is 16bit only.
02:12:00  <OwenS> (OK, you could switch back to real mode to call DOS *shudder*)
02:12:25  <fjb> Switching between modes is slow again.
02:12:38  <Eddi|zuHause> OwenS: but we already established that there's nothing in DOS that is worth calling :p
02:12:57  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: then it's become a bare metal app ;-)
02:13:14  <OwenS> fjb: You could get fancy and use SVM/VT and run DOS in a virtual machine for fast switches :p
02:13:18  <fjb> So every application has to provide its own OS, as I stated above.
02:15:00  <Eddi|zuHause> so why was DOS never ported to protected mode?
02:15:24  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: Because protected mode brings protection with it ;-)
02:15:29  <OwenS> Also: Nobdody wanted it :p

02:26:57  <Eddi|zuHause> hm... what i learned from the 2.0 thread is that there is currently no visionary milestone that warrants it being 2.0
02:27:20  <Eddi|zuHause> unless you count "make it 3D" which nobody even wants to do...
02:29:20  <fjb> Who cares about version numbers?

02:30:06  <Eddi|zuHause> do you realize how much the download count increased since there is a 1 before the dot?

02:42:37  <impactor> If I have a factory supplying goods to a city, and then the city stops accepting goods. How do I get the factory to stop thinking that I am taking goods from it?
02:43:07  <Eddi|zuHause> you can't
02:43:39  <impactor> So my rating for picking up goods will drop to 0?
02:43:49  <impactor> Or do I need to find someplace else to take them?
02:44:13  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, either of these ;)
02:45:00  <impactor> I guess the next city I start delivering goods to is going to get a bunch :P
02:45:56  <Eddi|zuHause> you can also have the city fund new office buildings
02:46:37  <impactor> Oh?
02:46:53  <Eddi|zuHause> click on the town name
02:47:23  <Eddi|zuHause> in the local authority window you have the option to fund advertising campaigns and stuff. if you have enough money, you can fund new buildings
02:48:05  <Eddi|zuHause> this will increase town growth for a while
02:48:38  <Eddi|zuHause> and you might get enough houses that accept goods again
02:48:52  <impactor> Sounds great. Where can I find this local authority window?
02:49:02  <Eddi|zuHause> in the town window
02:49:30  <impactor> Aha!
02:49:34  <impactor> Thanks muchly
02:50:18  <Eddi|zuHause> it might be wise to build roads where the town can grow
02:50:35  <impactor> It won't do that itself? Or will it simply grow where I want it to?
02:50:50  <Eddi|zuHause> it will build roads itself
02:51:03  <Eddi|zuHause> but each road it builds means it could have built a house instead
02:51:37  <impactor> Ah
02:51:52  <impactor> I definitely prefer it building houses
02:52:09  <Eddi|zuHause> so building the roads yourself might make the city grow slightly faster
02:56:55  <impactor> Well, that campaign has now made it accept goods
02:57:01  <impactor> So it's going to get a ton shortly :D
02:57:22  <Eddi|zuHause> fine :)

03:57:12  <fjb> Industries may raise their production.
03:57:36  <impactor> I can build industries in a city?
03:58:28  <PeterT> Good night
03:59:53  <fjb> Depends. But the industry does not have to be inside the city. Use the query tool to find out which tiles belong to a town.
04:00:26  <fjb> And the station name also tells you the town.
04:00:51  <fjb> Industries only raise the production if the get well served.

07:44:13  <Starn> Hello. roboboy.
07:50:10  <roboboy> hello
07:50:22  <roboboy> hm TUBE is an interesting game
07:50:57  <roboboy> its a DOS racing game by BullFrog
07:51:09  <roboboy> its freeware from what I can find
07:51:16  <Starn> i use to love bullfrog.
07:51:21  <roboboy> yeah
07:51:43  <roboboy> my two fav DOS games were TT(O)(D) and theme park
07:51:56  <roboboy> I can't find my theme park disk
07:52:26  <Starn> i like watching things on hulu kinda got out of gaming so much
07:53:50  <Starn> i just googled tube for the name keeeps making me remember things.
07:54:07  <Starn> i might have the original copy laying around.
07:58:08  <roboboy> from what I understand it was meant to be a demo piece from a perspective BullFrog employee
07:58:49  * roboboy ponders setting up a dled copy of theme park on his DOS machine

07:59:08  <Starn> whats the specs on your dos machine?
07:59:27  <roboboy> its a 433 mhz Celeron
07:59:33  <Starn> nice nice
07:59:37  <Starn> sounds like one of mine
08:00:01  <roboboy> it came with win98se on it but that got moved to another machine and then promptly died a few years later
08:00:17  <Starn> lol
08:00:33  <roboboy> if only I could find some damn soundcard drivers for its onboard soundvard for DOS
08:01:10  <roboboy> the hard disk 98se was on died
08:01:29  <roboboy> that and the old power suply are the only things to have died
08:01:46  <Starn> i got two "new" computers for free from some friends one was 95 other was 98 [no se] so my 95 turned into linux and my 98 is kinda just sitting there it has 2 or 3 harddrives.
08:01:51  <Doorslammer> I found Theme Park rather bad for blue screen deaths or crashing
08:02:02  <Doorslammer> Same with the old Nigel Mansell game
08:02:20  <roboboy> I dont remember Theme Park BSODing
08:02:43  <Doorslammer> Hmmm, maybe just kicking itself back to desktop then
08:02:55  <Starn> hmm
08:03:03  <roboboy> I'm glad we didnt get theme Transport or something of the TT type from BullFrog
08:03:11  <Starn> most these games i can get running on any 32bit OS.
08:03:32  <Doorslammer> I did have a good reliability from TTO, there was one odd problem with it though
08:03:57  <Doorslammer> Sometimes the music would go bloody psycho for about 20 seconds then sort of carry on as if nothing happened
08:04:01  <roboboy> well I cant run them on my lappy as its 64 bit and our 32bit xp desktop is dead due to the afformentioned 98se disk
08:04:28  <Starn> ah
08:04:41  <roboboy> XP stuck a few core files on it before it died and now it wont bot
08:05:04  <Starn> i see. i managaed to get a lot of dos games running on even win 7 32bit.
08:05:17  <roboboy> ive been trying various recovery methods over the last 2 years but nothings worked
08:05:27  <roboboy> ive got a few new ideas ecently
08:05:36  <Starn> i have an idea.
08:05:44  <Starn> do you have an XP install disk?
08:05:52  <roboboy> I remember theme park didn't like 95
08:05:54  <roboboy> yeah
08:06:10  <roboboy> I dont want to reinstall though im trying to repair it
08:06:16  <Starn> try using to and use the repair function?
08:06:30  <roboboy> thats what im currently trying
08:06:36  <Starn> sounds good
08:06:41  <Starn> what i would try :)
08:07:05  <roboboy> something broke last time I tried so I will have to pull that file from my backup
08:07:38  <roboboy> the problem is my keyboard fails in the gui part of setup so I can not enter my product key so im trying nlite
08:08:01  <roboboy> once ive recovered the borked file ill be set to retry with my nite disk
08:08:13  <Starn> if you have 2 harddrive in the machine running the repair should fix it by placing proper files into the correct harddrive.
08:08:31  <roboboy> ok
08:08:43  <Starn> it "should" do that..
08:08:54  * roboboy wonders what DOS game he should play now
08:08:57  <Starn> sometimes windows has the habit of not doing what it should.
08:09:36  <roboboy> the only thing I can not get working on my DOS machine is TCP/IP
08:09:56  <Starn> thats odd..
08:10:08  <roboboy> then I could use it for IRC when im not playing (O)TT(D)(P)
08:10:09  <peter1138> roboboy, get an isa soundblaster, one of the real ones
08:10:19  <peter1138> then it'll work in dos with no problems
08:10:30  <roboboy> ive got a soundcard somewhere
08:10:39  <roboboy> its a matter of finding it
08:10:49  <roboboy> it might be isa
08:10:49  <peter1138> (i assume your dos box has isa slots...)

09:24:07  <planetmaker> this or last year
09:24:08  <Starn> do they provide option to remove IE!?
09:24:19  <Zuu> It's being rolled out this next week.
09:24:19  <Starn> if last year my system should not have IE...
09:24:25  <planetmaker> they provide the option to not install IE in the first place
09:24:32  <planetmaker> and it might be that in the US they don't

09:25:12  <Zuu> Didn't they had a special edition of XP? or was it Vista? that didn't had the media player and some other components?
09:25:13  <Starn> i did not know windows could run with out IE they alwasy made windows crash if you forced IE off the system
09:25:29  <planetmaker> explorer != internet explorer
09:25:46  <planetmaker> though they're somewhat closely linked, I guess
09:25:52  <Starn> dunno.. all my systems have came fully packed with M$ B$
09:26:23  <Zuu> Also killing explorer with the task manager does't crash my computers. It just take away the task bar and the desktop.
09:26:40  <Starn> exactly
09:26:54  <Zuu> Thats hardly crashing
09:27:08  <Starn> on winxp i think it was i found a way to remove IE and it caused BS every time you booted computer
09:27:17  <Zuu> You just start explorer again from the task manager and you get it back again.
09:27:31  <Starn> i end expolore all the time
09:27:49  <Starn> i like to use 3rd party shells
09:28:33  <Zuu> I tried one third-party start menu for XP but had to throw it away as it wasn't compatible with x-mouse.
09:28:42  <Starn> ah
09:28:46  <Zuu> x-mouse = microsofts name of focus follow mouse.
09:29:23  <Starn> i like some 3rd party shells due to fact it can give me a feel of the older systems and linux
09:30:04  <Starn> though i am rather pleased with win7...
09:30:22  <Starn> its feel and usablity feels closer to linux for me.

09:31:15  <Zuu> hehe, I got a upgrade cd for 7 but haven't installed it yet as ms compatibility utility claims that turbo delphi will get into problem after upgrade. (on the net people write that you can still use it in the mode wher all different parts of the IDE has its own single window)
09:31:53  <Starn> hmm i don't use that.
09:32:01  <Starn> i use eclipes
09:32:17  <Zuu> Does eclipse do Delphi?
09:32:22  <Starn> maybe
09:32:24  <Starn> leme check
09:32:37  <Starn> eclipse does alot i know that for sure. just an IDE.
09:33:18  <Starn> its an plugin based IDE aka download the plugin and it will support that language
09:35:28  <Starn> for now i would stick to what you have.
09:35:59  <Starn> i am having to digg to much for delphi :P
09:37:24  <Zuu> Delphi is nice except for two problems: 1) not a lot of people use it anymore  2) not cross-platform
09:38:58  <Starn> i've been looking for something extremely simple but powerful
09:39:39  <Starn> i mainly know python and some languages like that.
09:39:48  <Starn> python is great for IRC btw
09:41:20  <Zuu> A problem with python and its alikes is that you don't compile them and thus do not get early warnings/errors on your mistakes and then have to spend a lot of time finding those bugs.
09:41:28  <Starn> all programs i've ever made run under command line except when i was 17 i made an notepad....
09:42:01  <Starn> i compile them alot.
09:42:29  <Starn> plus the tools i use debugs them while coding
09:43:38  <Starn> it normally notices any errors instantly like saying there is missing links and things rather useful i also know little java very very little C/C++ and i know some web languages.
09:44:37  <Starn> as an kid i use to use BYOND..
09:44:50  <Zuu> Didn't knew there was a compiler for python, but if they got one then thas good news.
09:45:03  <Starn> yep there is
09:45:13  <Starn> or at least it claims it is one.
09:48:13  <Starn> i think some people here would like byond for its kinda fun to just hop in and program using s simple langaug eg for a simple basic chat its something like if i memorry is right mind you its been about 5 or 6 years. mod/verb/say(message as text) world <<"[usr] says: [message]"
09:48:46  <Starn> i mean can you get any easier than this? if so let me know :P

09:50:43  <Starn> ?? removed in 3.0??
09:51:31  <Starn> thes makes me not want to upgrade python...
09:51:33  <Zuu> Sounds more like it is included in the main component/distribution package in 3.0.
09:51:42  <Starn> ah
09:51:53  <Starn> i just did little fast scan of site lol
09:51:55  <Alberth> python 3.0 is not production ready yet
09:52:22  <Alberth> for programming you should use 2.x
09:52:29  <Zuu> Though, I could be wrong since I don't do much python. Only when applications force me to do that because thats the only or the most sane scripting language they support.
09:52:41  <Starn> yea i still use 2.x
09:52:58  <planetmaker> morning Alberth (and also Zuu and Starn ;-) )
09:53:14  <Starn> morning planetmaker
09:53:16  <Zuu> Good morning planetmaker
09:53:40  <planetmaker> Alberth, the python page claims that 3.1 is stable.
09:54:19  <Alberth> python itself, yes. Except you dont have many libs available, nor any tutorial-like stuff (for new users)
09:54:26  <planetmaker> :-)
09:54:42  <Alberth> so as long as you dont' need 'import'.... :)
09:55:19  <Wizzleby> while python 3.1 is stable, the python folks still say it's not ready for production yet. Probably not till python 3.2
09:56:13  <Rubidium> sounds like KDE
09:56:47  <Wizzleby> Hehe. I actually like KDE4 since about 4.2, so.. yeah
09:57:22  <Wizzleby> but the few python projects I work on, we haven't really even put any solid plan as to converting to python3, waiting till it's a bit more mature
09:57:48  <Starn> there is an program i loved more than any program in the world of programs... its for linux only. well sorta.... Amarok.
09:58:44  <Wizzleby> Starn: amarok2 works in windows, they use the phonon vlc backend. But, not everyone likes amarok2 :)
09:58:52  <Starn> you can use an unstable berly working version of it using KDE win.
09:59:05  <Starn> i loved amarok 1 on ubuntu :P
09:59:28  <Starn> tried 2 useing the kdewin installer on windows and it crashed every time i switched songs
09:59:45  <Wizzleby> I mostly use MPD these days, when I use amarok seems like most of my time is spent generating backtraces for the devs rather than listenig to music
10:00:09  <Starn> its been awhile since i've used linux.
10:00:27  <Starn> i think i stopped using linux around the time amarok 2 came out.

10:01:31  <Wizzleby> kubuntu was a mess at that point, although granted it turned out that *ubuntu was just not my flavour of linux
10:01:33  <Starn> by MPD are you talking about music player daemom?
10:01:42  <Wizzleby> yeah, that is what I mean by MPD :)
10:02:53  <Starn> now days i just use Itunes to build my libary and sometimes play my music ok most the time... and to synce my ipod.. recently i installed winamp and been using itunes to build and keep my library clean and using winamp to play
10:03:08  <Ammler> well, those days are gone, since you can use openttd to play music lists :-)
10:03:21  <Starn> i have over 12,000 songs... so i need something to automaticly keep things in order.
10:03:30  <Wizzleby> mpd is in need of a good Qt/KDE frontend though
10:04:28  <Starn> i think i got excited...
10:04:39  <Starn> coLinux a go or no go?
10:05:21  <Starn> http://www.colinux.org/
10:05:27  <Wizzleby> I dunno, haven't tried it
10:05:41  <Starn> i am highly tempted to...
10:05:46  <Wizzleby> crazy... like KVM for windows o_O
10:06:52  <Starn> i like VMware though
10:06:52  <Starn> lol
10:07:11  <Starn> though i am gonna try this and my test program will be OpenTTD
10:08:44  <Starn> though from sounds of it i am wanting something more native like.. maybe the microsofts little attempt to be more opensource and cross platform support and making programs for linux will in the futur allow there to be no border lines in any system ^^
10:09:13  <Wizzleby> as far as linux goes, I've taken quite a fancy to gentoo. I even maintain a portage overlay  for OpenTTD betas/RCs (and currently opengfx and opensfx plus deps) till 1.0.0 rolls around and it goes in the main portage tree
10:09:34  <Starn> sweet
10:10:07  <Starn> this seems to much like an virtual machine :(
10:10:30  <Wizzleby> yeah that it does, special driver software to run the kernel at ring 0
10:11:08  <Starn> though its much smaller than most i've used i oddly took a fancy to microsofts virtual machine...
10:11:22  <Wizzleby> VirtualPC?
10:11:28  <Starn> yeo
10:11:31  <Starn> yep*
10:11:48  <Wizzleby> I tried that a couple times, only in win7 for the 'XP mode' type install though
10:11:57  <Wizzleby> usually I use virtualbox for a VM
10:12:42  <Starn> wow this provides a nice choice for which linux i wanna download
10:13:06  <Starn> archlinux debian fedora gentoo deluxe ubuntu
10:13:19  <Starn> all are smaller than 200mb download size
10:13:20  <Starn> o.o
10:13:55  <Starn> yet some how says they are extracted to 256mb smallest one to 4gb biggest one.. which is only 162mb download o.O
10:14:05  <Starn> i want their compression tools!
10:14:06  <Wizzleby> Starn: this is for colinux?

10:14:10  <Starn> yes
10:14:32  <Starn> debating on getting ubuntu 7.10 or gentoo or debian..
10:14:35  <Wizzleby> hmm... if I can have it grab gentoo, this may definitely be worth a try just for giggles at least :)
10:14:49  <Starn> exactly what i am doing for
10:15:20  <Starn> but i am thinking about ubuntu 7.10 just cuz i have a desk with it.. and i've used it before so i know how it should work.
10:15:28  <Wizzleby> wrt gentoo, for a minimal install, ~200MiB is about right. Remember that in gentoo, you need to build Xorg and your WM or DE of choice
10:16:06  <Starn> this says gentoo deluxe 108mb extraxts to 2gb
10:16:10  <Starn> same size as ubuntu
10:16:28  <Starn> fedora extracts to 4gb
10:16:38  <Starn> deb is 1gb...
10:17:02  <Wizzleby> ahh, interesting. I wonder how it sets gentoo up.
10:17:17  <Starn> dunno i am gonna try it.
10:17:35  <Starn> nvm i will not try it.
10:17:53  <Starn> said it wont run on x64
10:18:09  <Wizzleby> Ah, fail :/
10:18:33  <Starn> i'll see if i downloaded wrong file if they even had a choice.
10:18:50  <Wizzleby> I see only a single .exe per version on their SF page

10:37:01  <Wizzleby> http://quassel-irc.org/
10:37:48  <Starn> thank you.. hmm like the screen shot... for windows from reading this i would want monolithic client?
10:37:56  <Wizzleby> it can be used either monolithic like a traditional IRC client, or as a server/client  system, so the core runs in the background keeping your connection open, channels logged etc, your nick and other data, then the client connects to that
10:38:24  <Wizzleby> you could use either the monolithic, or the core+client. depends on your needs. I like core+client, cause I can close my IRC client without disconnecting
10:38:56  <Starn> i rarely close client unless i am leaving home for a few days
10:39:20  <Wizzleby> well, I can also use my laptop for IRC without having to start up a second session, just connect to my first :)
10:39:39  <Wizzleby> or X can crash, as well as the client, and the core stays running and connected
10:39:40  <Starn> right now i am on mIRC which i feel so unsafe.. feel naked..
10:40:03  <planetmaker> Rubidium, are there (scriptable) means to find out the percentage of crash.log at FS which use OpenGFX as graphics set, possibly using | uniq with respect to the reporters?
10:40:04  <Starn> hey this gives me an idea.
10:40:26  <peter1138> gui irc clients? pfft
10:40:36  <Rubidium> planetmaker: probably not
10:40:41  <Starn> i have multible computers right Wizzleby? would i be able to install core onto windows 98 and client on my windows 7 and connect like that?
10:40:50  <planetmaker> I was curious and looked through bug reports manually... 28:22 in favour of OpenGFX
10:40:59  <planetmaker> But I'm not really sure I have no doubles wrt authors
10:41:11  <planetmaker> most probable I have, though I tried to avoid it
10:41:17  <Wizzleby> Starn: yeah, so long as the core actually runs on win98 (not sure if it does)
10:41:18  <Starn> peter1138i i've stripped this down to be as close to my prefered client on linux lol
10:41:24  <Starn> sweet!
10:41:31  <planetmaker> (back to FS 3495 = 9.1.2010)
10:41:37  <Wizzleby> you could also have the core on a linux server, and the client on your windows :)
10:41:42  <Starn> my win98 uses boinic
10:41:52  <Starn> mmmm
10:41:53  <peter1138> my 'core' is irssi
10:41:56  <peter1138> my 'client' is ssh
10:42:05  <Starn> irssi does not live windows :P
10:42:11  <Starn> like*
10:42:17  <peter1138> peter1138 does not like windows
10:42:31  * Starn hugs peter1138
10:42:32  <Wizzleby> eh. I use irssi as sort of a last ditch thing
10:42:39  <Wizzleby> it's too confusing with 30 or so channels
10:42:49  <Wizzleby> so definitely not my primary client ;)
10:42:49  <SpComb^> hardly
10:43:10  <Starn> holy 18mb for irc client!?
10:43:15  <SpComb^> the GUI clients are confusing with all their weird window lists with weird long names taking up all the screen real estate
10:43:34  <Wizzleby> SpComb^: admittedly it's a matter of preference here
10:43:35  <Starn> really?
10:43:40  <SpComb^> whereas irssi makes do with just one line of text
10:43:55  <SpComb^> how much less could one ask for
10:44:02  <Starn> mIRC has hardly any windows hogging anything up and uses tabs for multi channels
10:44:20  <Starn> than again this is stripped down.
10:44:48  <Starn> its mirc with polarisX heavely modified by me.
10:44:54  <Wizzleby> I can appreciate irssi, and console apps in general. It just doesn't mesh with my normal workflow
10:45:00  <planetmaker> Starn, then use xchat, if 18MB is too much :-) 1MB for a nice GUI
10:45:20  <Starn> well i was refering to Wizzleby quassel being 18mb
10:45:42  <Starn> i use to use xchat.... but it became pay to use
10:45:57  <Wizzleby> Starn: well on windows, I bet that quassel is statically linked to qt and sqlite.. that'll up the size a bi
10:46:00  <planetmaker> oh, does it?
10:46:19  <peter1138> only if you're unable to find a search engine for a free build
10:46:21  <peter1138> it is gpl after all
10:46:23  <planetmaker> zypper install xchat did the trick here ;-)
10:46:33  <Starn> the free builds are out of date.
10:46:44  <planetmaker> The source isn't ;-)
10:47:01  <Starn> lol and i do not have the C++ tools to compile it.

11:34:34  <planetmaker> they might be more universaly usable than you now think ;-)
11:34:50  <planetmaker> peter1138, can you give me a screenshot of what you mean exactly?
11:34:57  <Zuu> So more like Utils.Helper?
11:35:19  <Zuu> Even though it contains functions like GetPAXCargo() :-)
11:35:20  <planetmaker> Zuu, well... I dunno what you plan...
11:35:48  <planetmaker> On the other hand a library named after oneself is a good boost for the ego, if others use it :-P
11:35:59  <Zuu> hehe
11:36:17  <frosch123> libzuu :p
11:37:07  <Zuu> I didn't really want to use my name as a prefix but at the same time I don't want to spend much time on making the libs very universial.
11:37:11  <frosch123> well, if it gets more popular you can still find a proper meaning for every abbreviation, e.g. zillion useless utilities
11:37:22  <Zuu> Though, I'll probably make most libs usable without my log-system.
11:37:54  <planetmaker> lol @ frosch123 ! I like that acronym definition ;-)

11:58:40  <planetmaker> yes
11:58:50  <planetmaker> r292 vs. r320
11:58:54  <planetmaker> and 292 is taken

12:24:29  <Rubidium> wow, ~400 GB of bananas downloads a month (given the stats of the last month)
12:25:01  <Starn> remember my network yesterday? i extended it and made it more complex. and now a total of 12 trains running on at most 4 tracks at a time.
12:25:10  <__ln__> some monkeys
12:26:22  <planetmaker> Starn, I remember my one game where I built the single factory station... serving ~600 trains... :-P
12:26:43  <planetmaker> and the station only had three entry lanes
12:26:50  <OwenS> planetmaker: Still pales in comparison to the game where we had a single factory serving ~1200 trains, from 4 lanes :p
12:27:04  <Starn> well i am not great at building tracks so managing to get 12 onto 4 tracks and no jams is an amazing task for me.

12:29:09  <OwenS> :-S
12:29:35  <Starn> yea does this for every computer on my network so i am clueless tried other modems my ISP gave me.. and direct link to modem
12:30:07  <Starn> and the odd thing is i have no issues with p2p programs.
12:30:47  <peter1138> i tried a netgear with sucked with openttd
12:30:47  <planetmaker> Starn, it might still be a glitchy connection.
12:31:03  <peter1138> oh no i didn't
12:31:05  <peter1138> it was a linksys
12:31:06  <Rubidium> p2p is something completely different than OpenTTD
12:31:19  <peter1138> the dlink and the buffalo work(ed) fine
12:31:29  <Starn> well on forums someone suggested if p2p don't work than openttd wont
12:31:46  <TrueBrain> not all people on the forums know what they talk about :)
12:31:47  <Starn> i tried dlink.
12:31:50  <planetmaker> not everyone on the forums has a clue ;-) especially how openttd's network works
12:31:51  <Rubidium> Starn: the forum is full of stupid people
12:32:04  <OwenS> P2P and OpenTTD have very different operating modes
12:32:06  <TrueBrain> 3 shots, 3 scores :) The crowd goes wild!
12:32:25  <Starn> does openTTD use modern methods ?
12:32:30  <OwenS> P2P is likely to crash your router by creating 10k connections, OpenTTD will just create one
12:32:32  <Rubidium> Starn: e.g. P2P is fully TCP based, OpenTTD uses UDP for discovery
12:32:44  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: A LIE! p2p can also be UDP :)
12:32:51  <Starn> indeed.
12:32:53  <OwenS> TrueBrain: You mean like UTP? :P
12:32:57  <TrueBrain> (well, for discovery too :))
12:33:12  <Starn> my torrent software is set to use both either one.
12:33:19  <TrueBrain> OwenS: no, you put the UTP in your ass, and send UDP over it :p
12:33:33  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: can, but does it? Hmm, I guess it occasionally does as torrents sometimes seem to lock DoS my hardware
12:33:48  <OwenS> TrueBrain: You can also send UTP over UDP over UTP. Silly overloaded in same domain TLA
12:33:51  <Starn> ok now i know the connection method does it use same method for downloading online content?
12:34:19  <Rubidium> anyhow, OpenTTD sends out a short burst of UDP packets and I think a lot of hardware isn't capable of handling that gracefully
12:34:34  <planetmaker> @ports
12:34:34  <DorpsGek> planetmaker: OpenTTD uses TCP and UDP port 3979 for server <-> client communication, UDP port 3978 for masterserver (advertise) communication (outbound), and TCP port 3978 for content service, a.k.a. BaNaNaS (outbound)
12:35:01  <Starn> explains why i can download ai and things
12:35:03  <Rubidium> ofcourse the only way for us to detect that it by actually doing so and then it already crashed the hardware
12:35:03  <OwenS> Rubidium: Why does BaNaNaS use a custom download protocol? Or does it actually just use that for looking up, and HTTP for downloads?
12:35:23  <Rubidium> OwenS: because a custom protocol is much simpler to parse and such
12:35:40  <OwenS> Rubidium: Heh. I was kinda thinking "Statically link libcurl" :P
12:35:57  <OwenS> (Or, in my case, link against QtNetwork, but I'd see why you wouldn't want to do that ;-) )
12:35:58  <TrueBrain> why do you need curl if I can write our own http downloader in a few lines? :)
12:36:01  <TrueBrain> much more compatible ;)
12:36:05  <Rubidium> OwenS: and make Windows compilation even harder?
12:36:07  <Starn> ok in theory if i went to my routers controle panel and messed around in there with the udp settings i might get it to work or simi work?
12:36:25  <OwenS> Rubidium: You could stick it in 3rdparty like squirrel. Or there are very lightweight network libraries
12:36:26  <Rubidium> OwenS: even then, HTTP downloading 'check'... now the parsing/validating of the data
12:36:50  <Rubidium> HTTP is purely a transport protocol
12:37:09  <Rubidium> you still need to code a 'protocol' on top of HTTP
12:37:23  <OwenS> I suppose I have it easy in that all my app needs to do over HTTP is grab images and models :P
12:37:26  <Rubidium> nevertheless, 1.0.0 can download over HTTP from our mirrors
12:37:36  <TrueBrain> it even has a 'protocol' over HTTP :)

14:15:12  <andythenorth> ?
14:16:25  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: yes, but the difficulty is that the default vehicles shouldn't be able to attach anything

14:17:51  <andythenorth> another cunning plan foiled :D
14:18:42  <Eddi|zuHause> what i mean: with trains you default to "can attach anything" and the callback returns to forbid something

14:31:45  <Eddi|zuHause> two big problems with motorways: 1) you need more advanced passing patterns for efficient use of two lanes in one direction, 2) you need multi-tile-objects for onramps and smoother curves
14:32:04  <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: I could live without those
14:32:28  <andythenorth> if road types becomes possible, I'll probably do motorways and 'dirt roads'

14:32:42  <Eddi|zuHause> build one way roads and make their graphics more fancy
14:32:59  <Ammler> well, at least overtaking in curves is needed

14:48:38  <_newage_> yeah
14:48:42  <_newage_> I agree
14:49:03  <andythenorth> plus all the stuff with town buildings gets more complicated...
14:49:14  <andythenorth> the game is the game, right?

14:49:37  <_newage_> ok xD
14:49:44  <peter1138> 32bpp is possible, heh
14:49:47  <Yexo> andythenorth: if diagonal stretches were added to the existing roads (so keep all roadbits as they are not and add some) you'd need 4 bits for the 4 diagonal parts
14:49:56  <Yexo> * 2 because you also need them for trams
14:50:04  <_newage_> I mean the project, no the techical issue
14:50:26  <Yexo> _newage_: 32bpp has been supported by openttd for years

14:57:08  <OwenS> andythenorth: limitations being good.
14:57:26  * andythenorth disagrees :P

14:58:10  <andythenorth> all of which means that we can get on with making road types without diagonals
14:58:16  <andythenorth> so road types might ship sooner :)
14:58:19  <andythenorth> or not
14:59:24  <peter1138> imho, diagonal rails only work because you can only fit 1 train on a (non-diagonal) rail tile

15:46:57  <Eddi|zuHause> or other people's roads
15:46:58  <Zuu> It only does it if it owns the road.
15:47:00  <Alberth> good idea Zuu, lay a bridge over the road first
15:47:56  <planetmaker> Zuu, that's a battle which is hard to find. A player who wants to be mean can be mean
15:48:04  <planetmaker> s/find/fight/
15:48:48  <Zuu> planetmaker: Indeed. It was not ment to be a battle against that behavior, rather against those who aren't kind enough to make railway bridge crossings.
15:49:17  <planetmaker> true, that happens :-)
15:49:38  <Zuu> Only a few AIs does that and I'm sure there are players who don't mind if they make railway crossings over AI roads.
15:50:08  * planetmaker doesn't mind always either. ;-)
15:50:25  * planetmaker also builds road bridges over other AIs / peoples tracks, if I use the road
15:50:49  <Zuu> That last version of CluelessPlus already does.
15:51:32  <planetmaker> nice :-)
15:51:32  <Zuu> But if you had the road there first it can be a good idea to at least detect when your vehicles get hit by a train and do something against the situation.
15:51:56  <planetmaker> true. Only when an accident happens or how do you  trigger?
15:52:27  <Eddi|zuHause> Zuu: note that if there is one route with a level crossing, and another route with a bridge, vehicles will prefer the bridge
15:52:41  <Zuu> It would probably be when an accident happens or when it for another reason scan the road for problems. Eg. if the profit quickly goes down on a road link it will see if the link is broken.
15:52:48  <Eddi|zuHause> the detour can be set in the yapf penalties

16:57:03  <Starn> yea. also it stays like this so long as i don't trying playing openTTD online well.. at least finding servers lol only game or program i've seen where i have this issue.
16:57:10  <planetmaker> he gave the connection properties to fonsinchen obviously :-P
16:59:14  <fonsinchen> Uh, did I do something wrong? I have a new IRC client ...
16:59:40  <fonsinchen> sorry for repeatedly connecting

17:00:31  <Eddi|zuHause> /ctcp <nick> version
17:00:33  <fonsinchen> konversation now, pidgin before. Pidgin doesn't support auto-identification and trashed my jaber-account
17:00:41  <fonsinchen> so it had to be removed.
17:00:57  <Starn> ah i see i liked konversation
17:02:04  <PeterT> fonsinchen: It's fine
17:02:16  <PeterT> fonsinchen: Glad that you're joining more than one channel now :-)
17:03:26  <fonsinchen> Yeah, maybe I can encourage them to give cargodist another try ...
17:04:12  <KenjiE20> heh, pidgin's IRC isn't really supposed to be used :P
17:04:36  <fonsinchen> It's OK if you don't expect it to identify
17:04:45  <KenjiE20> or use a lot of channels

19:07:53  <Alberth> it seems to be a consistent pattern. As soon as you get a bug report about something, there is a big chance you'll get another one very soon. I have seen this happening in several projects

19:08:46  <Eddi|zuHause> it's been the same in scientifical development over the last couple hundred years
19:09:02  <Eddi|zuHause> one discovery is almost always made independently at two different places
19:09:08  <Eddi|zuHause> because "the time is right"
19:09:17  <OwenS> Or: They both build upon the same preceding work
19:09:36  <LA> or one just steals other's work and claims it as his own :D
19:10:14  <Eddi|zuHause> that certainly happens as well
19:10:40  <Eddi|zuHause> but 300 years ago they didn't really have any internet
19:11:05  <Eddi|zuHause> so the russians knowing what was going on in britain wasn't all that common...
19:11:08  <LA> also, wen talking about bug reports, why would anyone steal a bug report and claim it as his own
19:11:09  <LA> :D
19:11:29  <LA> KGB, well.. 300 years ago, yees... BUT KGB
19:11:41  <LA> when**
19:11:53  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: Scientific discoveries still spread, just slower
19:12:36  <LA> you know it kinda sucks that all the major fundamental discoveries were made either in renaiscance or just after it :D
19:12:46  <Eddi|zuHause> OwenS: i don't understand what you mean by this
19:13:06  <LA> now every scientist has to be very specific, can't be omniscientist, like da Vinci anymore
19:13:13  <Eddi|zuHause> once again proof that the english language is very ambiguous
19:13:29  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: Most of the world still knew what happened elsewhere, it just spread slower. And pretty much everyone knew what was happening in Britain as it was the world trade hub
19:13:33  <LA> I think it's spread, as it past
19:13:40  <LA> in*
19:13:45  <Eddi|zuHause> the same sentence in german would likely have been much more clear
19:13:53  <Alberth> LA: big discoveries are also done today, but it takes a few decades to recognize them as such
19:14:17  <LA> well, yes, but they are very specific
19:14:21  <LA> not fundamental
19:14:33  <OwenS> LA: Was quantum mechanics not fundamental?
19:14:38  <OwenS> Or Relativity?
19:14:44  <Eddi|zuHause> fundamental discoveries happen as frequently as before...
19:14:44  <Alberth> CERN experiments are quite fundamental ;)
19:15:22  * OwenS still prefers ITER though
19:15:42  <Alberth> or discoveries done in space, but you should another member of this channel about that :)
19:15:57  <Alberth> +ask
19:16:17  <Eddi|zuHause> discovering that pluto is not a planet is fairly fundamental ;)
19:16:26  <OwenS> Or rather Iter, because when people ask what "ITER" means and find it means "International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor", they get scared)
19:16:40  <Alberth> as are discoveries of planets at other solar systems
19:17:19  <LA> poor pluto :(
19:17:31  <Eddi|zuHause> well, "discoveries" might be a little high word for those...

19:18:00  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: they wanted to be done by 2050
19:18:08  <OwenS> Alberth: Well, the science says it should work. A bit of refinement needed, maybe, but it should finally generate power
19:18:24  <Alberth> hmm, 2050 :(
19:18:37  <OwenS> Were expecting DEMO to come online and generate power in ~2030
19:18:40  <LA> nuclear fusion does work and has been done in labs, but it currently gives about the same amount of energy out as it gives in.. Cold fusion could be cool tho

19:20:43  <Rubidium> nuclear fusion works pretty well for a long time already, only gaining power from it isn't that efficient :)
19:21:10  <OwenS> Rubidium: Well, it must be admitted stars have been doing it for ~6 billion years
19:21:19  <frosch123> solar panels are not that bad anymore
19:21:27  <Eddi|zuHause> efficiency and keeping the chain reaction running for longer times are the current problems
19:21:37  <frosch123> but we should install some mirror at the other side
19:22:02  <Rubidium> frosch123: that's called "the moon"
19:22:33  <OwenS> Eddi|zuHause: I was under the impression the reaction is stable, but making the reaction chamber not spall was an issue
19:22:43  <Eddi|zuHause> yeah, let's cover the moon with solar panels, and send a microwave beam to earth
19:22:46  <Rubidium> or one needs to place a mirrors at L2 and L4/L5
19:22:59  <OwenS> Rubidium: Earth-Moon or Earth-Sun Ls?
19:23:15  <Rubidium> OwenS: earth-sun
19:24:37  <OwenS> Meh... just build a Dyson Sphere :p
19:24:54  <Rubidium> if you place them at earth-moon's Ls you would need too much mirror movement I think
19:25:18  <Rubidium> not to mention that the moon isn't always at the 'dark' side
19:25:57  <LA> well then just install hovering solar panels :D, they get the hovering energy from electricity they produce
19:25:59  <LA> :P
19:26:28  <Rubidium> LA: actually a good idea
19:26:40  <Rubidium> solar sails might do the trick
19:26:54  <Rubidium> especially with concentrating sunlight
19:27:58  <LA> the problem is though, if it's beamed to Earth, what happens if something fails at the receiving end or when the beam is misplaced.. into a major city perhaps
19:28:13  <LA> lot's of light
19:28:58  <OwenS> LA: Beam it to a site floating on an ocean? Or in a big desert?
19:29:34  <LA> desert then rather, as it'll just start evaporating water
19:29:43  <Rubidium> actually, transport of electricity is the major problem why we can't build big solar plants in the Sahara to power Europe
19:30:09  <OwenS> It's very true. Conductive losses suck
19:30:29  <LA> On the other hand, the African countries COULD build them to power themselves
19:30:40  <OwenS> During the day ;-)
19:30:54  <Alberth> just cool it down to a few K, and we have super conductivity :p

19:32:31  <LA> let's use Atlantic as a battery, who cares about the fish there
19:32:34  <OwenS> Alberth: As for pumped storage... need a big lake. Not that many of those. Also: Cause earthquakes
19:32:40  <OwenS> LA: Me! :P
19:33:05  <Hirundo> Pumping is still more efficient than any battery IIRC
19:33:14  <LA> alright, then someone will invite you to swim someday in Atlantic.. that's the time when we'll turn it on :D
19:33:36  <OwenS> Hirundo: Well, the pumps tend to last a lot longer, but the method consumes more energy

19:35:10  <planetmaker> oh... an LA
19:35:16  <LA> ofck
19:35:25  * LA hides
19:35:36  <LA> hai plantbaker
19:36:36  <LA> hmm.. I probably *should* go to sleep or *should* do my homework :S
19:37:31  <OwenS> LA: You probably should, but will you?
19:38:14  <LA> don't know
19:38:41  <Rubidium> LA: is it English homework? If so, learn the word procrastinate
19:38:44  <LA> how's homework in German?
19:39:02  <LA> it's German homework
19:39:06  <Zuu> Oh, running trains without signals in a loop with break down on is not a good idea :-)
19:39:43  <LA> hah
19:40:48  <LA> I will keine Hausaufgaben tun..
19:40:55  <LA> I think it's the correct word :D
19:40:59  <LA> or Hausarbeit
19:41:24  <__ln__> *ich
19:41:33  <LA> hahah
19:41:37  <LA> yes, Ich
19:41:41  <LA> :D
19:41:47  <__ln__> and i think the verb would be "machen" with Hausaufgaben, but not sure.
19:41:59  <LA> perhaps
19:42:17  <Coco-Banana-Man> either machen or erledigen
19:42:23  <Eddi|zuHause> "Hausarbeit" and "Hausaufgaben" have very different connotations

19:45:12  <planetmaker> Rubidium: LA: Then you probably want to learn the word "faulenzen" ;-)
19:45:39  <Eddi|zuHause> <Rubidium> actually, transport of electricity is the major problem why we can't build big solar plants in the Sahara to power Europe <-- i thought they started that project recently
19:45:52  <LA> is the faul also some prefix?
19:46:11  <LA> and then it goes separate from the verb in some condition :o
19:46:22  <planetmaker> it's not in this case
19:46:33  <planetmaker> Ich habe heute gefaulenzt
19:46:51  <planetmaker> (I was (bloody) lazy today)
19:47:53  <Rubidium> not Aufschieben?
19:48:04  <LA> so.. I can tell my German teacher 'Ich war gefaulenzt gestern'?
19:48:06  <Eddi|zuHause> LA: no, "faul" is the base of the word. means "lazy"
19:48:24  <LA> when she asks me why my homework isn't done
19:48:27  <planetmaker> LA: no it's "Ich habe gefaulenzt"
19:48:28  <Rubidium> LA: maybe something like "Ich habe Aufschieberitis"
19:48:45  <planetmaker> hehe ^
19:48:55  <Ammler> Aufgeschoben ist nicht aufgehoben!
19:49:13  <LA> :)
19:49:16  <Eddi|zuHause> "Morgen, morgen, nur nicht heute, sagen alle faulen Leute"
19:50:10  * frosch123 usually uses "next week" instead of "tomorrow" in that case
19:50:30  <planetmaker> :-D
19:50:43  <Ammler> so lala is doing some sprite work?

22:20:29  <planetmaker> yes
22:20:37  <planetmaker> but you could just try
22:21:35  <Chruker> I didnt wanted to mess up all directories and batch files I have in place to run other versions.
22:22:29  <planetmaker> each version can safely have it's own dir.
22:22:56  <planetmaker> and they could (should?) share their newgrf and data dirs. Saves you much copying and makes everything available to all versions
22:23:08  <planetmaker> section 4.2 of the readme tells you where to look
22:23:51  <planetmaker> different OpenTTD versions can co-exist each in its own dir without cross-influencing others
22:26:16  <Nite_Owl> sharing the data directory is easier
