08:24:56  <andythenorth_> planetmaker: morning
08:25:06  <andythenorth_> do you think FIRS can be built on windows?
08:28:16  <planetmaker> in what sense? Terkhen can do that... but within a VM
08:28:43  <planetmaker> it can also be done with cygwin or mingw. But that might take its time
08:28:57  <andythenorth_> I am trying to help Kogut build it
08:29:04  <andythenorth_> I don't know what platform he uses though
08:29:05  <planetmaker> oi
08:29:19  <planetmaker> tell him to install make and gcc :-)
08:29:56  <planetmaker> and grfcodec, nforenum and md5sum and zip ;-)
08:30:04  <planetmaker> and bash actually
08:34:12  <andythenorth_> :|
08:34:19  <andythenorth_> I forgot all those things
08:35:38  <planetmaker> mingw provides all those basically
08:35:42  <planetmaker> as does msys
08:36:14  <planetmaker> so it's "just" a matter of installing that and of setting up a mingw compile environment
08:40:39  <xiong> Does anyone think there'd be another application for a Perl script that more or less brutally converts all numbers in a file from kilometers to miles?
08:49:59  <__ln__> "It was 1950 and the population was already 200,000." -> "It was 1211,93 and the population was already 124,301."?
08:53:04  <xiong> __ln__, Yes; it's inelegant. Even if I were willing to put in the work, I can't think of a way to parse a random page of text and decide which numbers in it might represent km and which something else. Sorry. You have to choose your input file with some... regard.
08:54:06  <xiong> If I knew I were parsing XML and the XML were properly written, such that the km measures were so identified, it would be different. The only value of my script is that it doesn't disturb text that isn't numbers.
08:55:17  <xiong> I wrote the script for this: (http://wiki.openttd.org/Game_mechanics#Trains). I can vaguely see a future application in the TTD realm but only barely.

09:21:51  <Terkhen> andythenorth_: it can be built on windows, if all the patches I coded have been applied to it
09:22:12  <Terkhen> I don't remember if they were applied to FIRS or only to the newgrf base project
09:22:39  <planetmaker> I don't know that either anymore ;-)

10:17:32  <thefiler> hi guys
10:19:11  <thefiler> stupid question - i've started using open ttd for the first time in a year again. usually within the game you could set your industries cargo production to max or min while playing now with the new version it seems you cant
10:19:25  <andythenorth_> cheat menu
10:19:36  <andythenorth_> ctl-alt-
10:19:37  <andythenorth_> c
10:19:56  <thefiler> thanks ill try quickly
10:20:15  *** Fast2 [~Fast2@p57AFA066.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #openttd
10:20:57  <thefiler> thanks Andy for the help...
10:26:45  <AveiMil> Helps! http://vcs.openttd.org/svn/browser/trunk/src/table/engines.h?rev=21100 <- Line 587, the max_speed says 37. But when I set:
10:26:46  <AveiMil> item(FEAT_AIRCRAFT, SampsonU52, 0)                   { property { cost_factor: 14*param[50]/100; running_cost_factor: 85*param[55]/100; speed: 37; } }
10:27:00  <AveiMil> And load up the .grf in the game, the speed for that aircraft is NOT default
10:29:54  <thefiler> another stupid question, why can one build all other industries close together but you cant do it for banks
10:30:53  <planetmaker> AveiMil: the numbers there are not km/h nor miles/hour or m/s but NFO / OpenTTD internal units
10:31:13  <planetmaker> sometimes, e.g. for wagon weight they equal metric units, sometimes not
10:31:54  <planetmaker> but... what difference do you get with your example?
10:31:58  <Terkhen> http://vcs.openttd.org/svn/browser/trunk/src/table/engines.h?rev=21100#L573
10:32:37  <AveiMil> I did not expect the number to be a real unit. But I expected "37" to be the default in game speed, which is 476 (~) in the game.
10:32:45  <planetmaker> Terkhen: but... in NML giving no units should work as giving the NFO value... so it might still be considered a problem
10:32:47  <AveiMil> But when I do speed: 37 it's like 150~ in the game
10:33:50  <Terkhen> indeed
10:34:09  <planetmaker> AveiMil: that should be a bug in NML
10:34:34  <planetmaker> it might work if you use km/h as units and the proper value. What is the result then?
10:35:14  <AveiMil> I just discoevered through trial and error
10:35:28  <planetmaker> @calc 1/0.279617
10:35:28  <DorpsGek> planetmaker: 3.57632046692
10:35:33  <AveiMil> that 474km/h = speed: 131;
10:35:37  <Alberth> thefiler: there are advanced settings for that (economy, it seems)
10:36:04  <AveiMil> strangly enough, there's no difference between speed: 127,128,129,130
10:37:03  <Alberth> looks like it gets divided by 4 somewhere
10:37:12  *** DDR [~DDR@66.183.113.224] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
10:37:14  <AveiMil> so from 126 the speed was 461
10:37:23  <AveiMil> and no difference until 131 which was 474
10:37:30  <AveiMil> which is the default speed in the game for the SampsonU52
10:38:24  <planetmaker> @calc 1/12.8
10:38:24  <DorpsGek> planetmaker: 0.078125
10:40:04  <Alberth> nml does a lot of conversions from 'nice' units to internal data values that have 'weird' ranges
10:40:35  <AveiMil> hmmm
10:40:58  <AveiMil> any way to figure otu the correct speed value for each aircraft then
10:41:03  <AveiMil> without trail and error?
10:41:17  <AveiMil> can you write a script that outputs i?
10:41:21  <AveiMil> it*
10:41:25  <planetmaker> AveiMil: you can try to change nml/nml/action0properties.py:305
10:41:39  <planetmaker> try to replace the conversion value given there by 0.078125
10:41:54  <planetmaker> I *think* that fixes it...
10:42:51  <Alberth> planetmaker: if you change the source, please add the calculation rather than the magic number
10:42:52  <AveiMil> will that affect other things?
10:43:58  <Alberth> AveiMil: I think not, each entry there is one of the settings you can do, it is a quite 1-to-1 mapping
10:44:42  <planetmaker> hm... that's not the fix I think
10:44:56  <AveiMil> lol, no, that made it worse :)
10:45:00  <planetmaker> it will make it worse ;-) now the plane is 37km/h ;-)
10:45:06  <AveiMil> yes
10:45:07  <AveiMil> hehe
10:45:19  <AveiMil> but tweaking that number fixes it I guess
10:45:25  <planetmaker> 12.8 then
10:45:39  <planetmaker> but... it should accept nfo when no unit is given...
10:46:47  <AveiMil> 12.8 results in compile error
10:46:55  <AveiMil> nmlc: "input", line 255: Action 0 property too large
10:47:04  <planetmaker> hm
10:47:08  <AveiMil> 12.8x37 = more than 255
10:47:14  <AveiMil> wait
10:48:53  <AveiMil> nvm
10:49:18  <andythenorth_> how much is TE related to friction?
10:49:47  <andythenorth_> quite a lot
10:50:53  <andythenorth_> so for two vehicles with equivalent weight, the one with larger tyres will have higher TE?
10:51:33  <planetmaker> not necessarily
10:51:50  <planetmaker> important is the pressure
10:52:27  <andythenorth_> so a vehicle with central tyre inflation system...
10:52:34  <AveiMil> 'unit_conversion': 1.035456703125
10:52:36  <AveiMil> that's the number
10:52:50  <AveiMil> albeit SLIGHTLY off, maybe because it rounds up or something?
10:53:02  <AveiMil> with speed: 37 I now get ingame speed 487
10:53:03  <planetmaker> so for equivalent weight the larger tyres will actually increase the area with the ground, thus decrease the pressure
10:53:37  <planetmaker> so actually... hm... smaller types should be better ;-)
10:53:50  <AveiMil> 0.279617=128
10:53:50  <AveiMil> X=474
10:53:56  <AveiMil> That's what I did to figure out the number
10:54:08  <planetmaker> but you need of course some area to put the power from the vehicle to the ground... thus...
10:54:11  <planetmaker> difficult ;-)
10:54:17  <AveiMil> ah, 128 is supposed to be 131
10:54:21  <AveiMil> there's my small error
10:55:28  <AveiMil> 'unit_conversion': 1.011743954198473
10:55:36  <AveiMil> there, that number gives me CORRECT in-game speed
10:55:39  <AveiMil> with speed: 37
10:56:09  <planetmaker> AveiMil: unfortunately the bug is not the conversion factor. But it seems the unit detection
10:56:26  <AveiMil> ok, but changing the unit conversion works as a workaround
10:56:33  <planetmaker> changinge the factor breaks conversion for other units, e.g. km/h ;-)

10:57:42  <AveiMil> seems fine to me?
10:57:50  <AveiMil> both imperial and metric are correct numbers
10:58:52  <planetmaker> hm, yes. AveiMil add as unit 'nfo'
10:59:11  <planetmaker> then 37 works. I'm just trying to find out whether it is as designed :-)
10:59:36  <AveiMil> aye, so I have a good work around
10:59:46  <planetmaker> using 'nfo' is not even a work-around
10:59:54  <AveiMil> I use the 37 because that's what I found off that site
11:00:07  <AveiMil> I'm confused
11:00:11  <AveiMil> what you mean
11:00:18  <planetmaker> openttd's internal units are nfo units
11:00:27  <AveiMil> right, like 37
11:00:37  <AveiMil> (?)
11:00:53  <planetmaker> yes, the plane speed is in nfo plane speed units
11:02:00  * Terkhen wonders why the air drag implementation is considered realistic
11:03:17  <planetmaker> AveiMil: aye. It works as designed
11:03:26  <planetmaker> If you don't specify any units, SI units are assumed
11:03:30  <planetmaker> and 37 m/s is about
11:03:34  <planetmaker> @calc 3.6 * 37
11:03:34  <DorpsGek> planetmaker: 133.2
11:03:36  <planetmaker> ^
11:03:40  <planetmaker> km/h
11:04:23  <AveiMil> so I can just use y any units, SI units are assumed
11:04:23  <AveiMil> [12:03] #openttd: <@planetmaker> and 37 m/s is ab
11:04:26  <AveiMil> wtf
11:04:34  <AveiMil> so I can just use 'unit_conversion': 1.011743954198473 then
11:04:58  <planetmaker> eh?

11:06:15  <planetmaker> yes
11:06:33  <planetmaker> it'd be better readable, if you used 476 km/h ;-)
11:06:55  <planetmaker> but when mimicing default behaviour metric might indeed not be 'best' (whatever that is)

11:10:38  <AveiMil> Hey guys, I'm trying to play my NewGRF with a friend over MP.
11:10:49  <AveiMil> We both have installed it in the Data folder
11:11:03  <AveiMil> But when he tries to join the gae he gets "newgrf mismatch", ti's the same grf
11:11:52  <AveiMil> Does it have to be installed in a different way?
11:12:04  <planetmaker> it has to be _exactly_ the same newgrf
11:12:09  <planetmaker> you probably have a newer version
11:12:16  <planetmaker> (or older)
11:12:55  <AveiMil> Ehm, nope, I even start a new instance on my own computer, so I have two OpenTTD's running
11:12:59  <AveiMil> and the second one says the same thing
11:13:34  <planetmaker> then those use different data folders with different newgrf versions
11:20:57  <Alberth> run openttd with      openttd -d grf=1         you'll get a dump of where grfs are loaded from
11:21:58  <Alberth> at least 1 looks like it is enough, higher numbers give more output

11:59:47  <thefiler> is there a way to stop new industries from beginning? so that the only new way is to fund them
12:01:07  *** Biolunar [~mahdi@blfd-4db1a721.pool.mediaWays.net] has joined #openttd
12:01:16  <Alberth> you can set number of industries to none, when generating a game
12:01:31  <Alberth> however, then you don't get any industries
12:01:50  <Alberth> you can also make a scenario with that setting so you have an initial setup
12:01:58  <Rubidium> IIRC there's some NewGRF that stops generating industries

15:33:13  <Ammler> default settings we change: http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/Setdef
15:33:29  <AveiMil> Is proxy transporting possible?
15:33:45  <AveiMil> Transporting passengers from city A to the coast, and then from coast to city B by boat?
15:33:56  <Qantourisc> AveiMil: yes
15:34:02  <Ammler> halfish
15:34:06  <Qantourisc> AveiMil: using "transfer" at the unload order
15:34:06  <AveiMil> couldn't get that to work with passangers
15:34:10  <AveiMil> ah
15:34:11  <Qantourisc> AveiMil: however
15:34:14  <Qantourisc> make sure you don't load them :)
15:34:23  <Qantourisc> so transfer "and leave empry"
15:34:43  <Ammler> you should make 2 docks
15:34:45  <Qantourisc> unless the game is smart enough not to pick the old ones up to transfer them back :)
15:35:07  <Alberth> it is not that smart
15:35:24  <Alberth> AveiMil: look at  feeder systems at the wiki
15:35:30  <Ammler> we need "station slots" :-)
15:35:39  <Alberth> ?
15:36:10  <Ammler> where you could define a slot for departure and one for arrival
15:36:36  <stinkyfax> do i put competitor speed to 0 for multiplayer?
15:37:05  <Ammler> just use defaults :-)
15:37:17  <Ammler> and adjust with playing
15:37:32  <AveiMil> But that does not work with subsidies transfer?
15:37:50  <AveiMil> or does it?
15:38:58  <Alberth> if it doesn't it sounds like a bug
15:39:32  <Alberth> I'd expect that it works, but never tried it
15:40:32  <Ammler> I am not sure, if authority should pay you, if you don't setup a direct route
15:41:24  <AveiMil> I noticed at least that the boat now says "passengers from (the proxy stop)" and not the city where the bus collected the passangers from
15:41:30  <AveiMil> so I'll guess it dosen't work with subsidies
15:41:33  <AveiMil> which is a shame
15:41:45  <Ammler> or a feature :-P
15:42:15  <AveiMil> haha, doubtful it was intentional
15:42:39  <AveiMil> can you change the maximum intrest level via a NewGRF?
15:42:40  <Alberth> don't be too sure, when you bring cargoes (like passengers) to the final destination, a final computation takes place
15:42:59  <Ammler> it's not the meaning to sponsor a route, where the passenger has to switch vehicle 10 times
15:43:14  <Hirundo> AveiMil: interest cannot be changed via grf
15:43:16  <AveiMil> (they're not real passengers)
15:43:17  <AveiMil> :D
15:43:37  <AveiMil> damn, why is it capped at 4%?
15:43:39  <Alberth> they are just collections of 0s and 1s  :)
15:44:37  <Ammler> that is just my explaination, why it is a feature and not a bug, if it doesn't work :-)
15:44:50  <AveiMil> I'll start a new game and test it
15:44:58  <AveiMil> but back to the intrest, how can that be changed?
15:45:04  <AveiMil> it's odd it's capped at 4%
15:45:42  <Hirundo> Inflation is coupled to interest, else inflation would get too high
15:46:11  <Hirundo> resulting in nasty overflow bugs etc.
15:47:34  <AveiMil> Does inflation affect everything?
15:47:50  <AveiMil> Like building costs/running costs/pruchase cost and also income per passenger etc?
15:48:14  <planetmaker> yes
15:49:50  <AveiMil> does it affect maximum loan?
15:49:54  <AveiMil> or does that stay static?

15:55:31  <AveiMil> after 50 years, due to inflation, will I be able to borrow more from the bank?
15:55:34  <AveiMil> or is that limit static?

15:57:30  <Qantourisc> so differnt
15:57:37  <planetmaker> and make both available ingame
15:57:37  <Qantourisc> ok then i must translate it differntly
16:02:11  <AveiMil> nobody knows?
16:02:30  <Qantourisc> AveiMil: sorry i missed the question
16:02:39  <Qantourisc> AveiMil: if the maintaince cost goes up ?
16:02:48  <Alberth> AveiMil: apparently not
16:03:00  <Qantourisc> 'AveiMil: after 50 years, due to inflation, will I be able to borrow more from the bank?' <= that one ?
16:03:05  <Alberth> AveiMil: you can check the source code, or try it
16:03:16  <Qantourisc> iirc you can borrow more later
16:03:23  <Qantourisc> not 100% sure
16:03:32  <Alberth> yes, it is releated to the size of your company

16:16:27  <stinkyfax> what is subsidy multiplier?
16:17:04  <Spoons> The multiplier for subsidies.
16:17:15  <planetmaker> when you accept a subsidy, you get paid that factor more than you'd get paid for providing tha transport usually without the subsidy
16:17:43  <stinkyfax> i see, thanks :)
16:18:09  <planetmaker> usually not worth to look for subsidies ;-)

18:49:14  <AveiMil> planetmaker, don't see how that adds to the replay fun
18:49:30  <AveiMil> might as well randomize the cost of everything too

18:49:40  <planetmaker> yes, might. But isn't.
18:50:07  <AveiMil> it's very hard to even know how much of a difference 5-10% max reliability makes in terms of cost effectiveness
18:50:13  <AveiMil> so I totally disagree

20:39:25  <Alberth> are trolleys not also considered a tram?
20:39:33  <Alberth> +buses
20:39:58  <Terkhen> andythenorth_: I don't remember, those values where agreed while I was coding the improved acceleration for rv patch
20:41:05  <Terkhen> found it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance#Rolling_resistance_coefficient_examples
20:41:54  <__ln__> what's the status of adding a distinct sign for tram stops?
20:42:29  *** Progman_ [~progman@p57A1D169.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #openttd
20:43:25  * Alberth was not aware of the existence of such an issue
20:45:49  <__ln__> it has been discussed here, at least.  i doubt there's a formal bug report about it.
20:46:22  <Alberth> I am pretty often not here, so that is very well possible
20:47:16  <__ln__> here are some non-genuine screenshots to illustrate the idea: http://users.utu.fi/lanurm/ottd/tramstops3.png  http://users.utu.fi/lanurm/ottd/tramstops4.png
20:47:42  <__ln__> Eddi might have even a better icon for a tram...
20:48:04  <planetmaker> __ln__: then you need (also) a separate icon for reach track type
20:48:06  <Hirundo> What about freight trams?
20:48:46  <planetmaker> or at least incompatible train track type

20:49:16  <__ln__> planetmaker: why?
20:49:25  *** Progman_ is now known as Progman
20:49:30  <planetmaker> consistency?
20:49:46  <planetmaker> or why should trams get their own symbol, but maglevs not?
20:50:33  <__ln__> because in real life trams have their own symbol (except in germany), while maglevs don't (because all maglev projects got cancelled).
20:51:22  <planetmaker> realism seldomly has been a good support argument ;-)
20:51:50  <__ln__> planetmaker: anyway, a tram is not a bus, but a maglev is still a train.
20:51:59  <planetmaker> is it?
20:52:17  <__ln__> i don't know, never rode one.
20:52:20  <planetmaker> I dare say the means of transport are similiarily distinct
20:52:52  <__ln__> I dare say being symbolised with the icon of a bus is an insult against trams.
20:53:19  <planetmaker> as is for maglevs being symbolized as a steam train. as is for helis to be symbolized as a plane etc pp
20:53:48  * SpComb yawns
20:53:51  <planetmaker> honestly I don't see a 'just add the tram symbol' happening
20:53:53  <SpComb> seems I created myself a maintenance burden
20:54:12  <SmatZ> trams are just baby trains
20:54:13  <planetmaker> while a separate symbol for each means of transport - might be a nice option
20:54:43  <__ln__> planetmaker: sillier things have 'happened' in the past...
20:54:44  <planetmaker> someone woke SmatZ ;-) hi
20:54:54  <SmatZ> hello planetmaker :)
20:54:57  <planetmaker> did someone say beer? ;-)
20:55:19  <__ln__> yes, a distinct sign for trams and beer
20:55:29  <SmatZ> nope :) I am reading this place all the day, I am just not saying anything :)
20:55:35  <planetmaker> yeah... I'm quite happy andy re-considered beer for FIRS
20:55:38  <SmatZ> :-)
20:55:41  <planetmaker> :-)
20:55:58  * andythenorth_ wants a symbol specific to dump trucks
20:56:01  <andythenorth_> and one for tractor
20:56:10  <planetmaker> for floats
20:56:16  <planetmaker> and hovercraft
20:56:20  <planetmaker> and catemaran
20:56:30  <planetmaker> passenger vs. goods ships
20:57:17  <andythenorth_> planetmaker: beer in FIRS 0.5.3?
20:57:24  <planetmaker> is there?
20:57:38  * Alberth  ponders a green hovering diamond above a tram-stop
20:57:45  <planetmaker> Dunno... I for unknown reasons like particularily fish and beer as cargo :-)
20:57:57  <andythenorth_> fish, chips and beer
20:57:59  <Alberth> fish and chips :)
20:58:02  <andythenorth_> potatoes are an important crop
20:58:07  <andythenorth_> maybe we add them
20:58:07  <planetmaker> must be because those were the first cargos I had fun on MP servers :-)
20:59:47  <__ln__> would everyone be happy if the current bus icon was just given a pantograph?

21:05:10  <planetmaker> __ln__: it would have the big disadvantage of "where are the trams?" in plain OpenTTD
21:05:11  *** ar3k [~ident@87-239-75-101.internetia.net.pl] has joined #openttd
21:05:26  <planetmaker> so... I'd be unhappy ;-)
21:06:22  <__ln__> isn't there already the "where are the trams?" disadvantage, as trams are hinted about in the road construction menu, but it's disabled.
21:10:11  <michi_cc> andythenorth_: The rolling friction in the game stands for all related resistances like curve resistance for example. And tram tracks generally have sharper curves than rail.
21:10:41  <andythenorth_> ok
21:11:39  <michi_cc> And if you want more reasoning you can also imagine the tram tracks to be less stable (and thus have more deformation). But in the end the only real explanation is better game balance :)
