05:10:25  <hmmwhatsthisdo> Is there an upper limit on how much an industry can produce that's specific to each industry?
05:11:18  <hmmwhatsthisdo> I have 3 iron ore mines that are linked to a steel mill by rail - two produce 500-600 tons, but one has been hovering under 100 for quite some time and I can't figure out why.
05:11:30  <hmmwhatsthisdo> All have "Outstanding" ratings
05:14:16  <hmmwhatsthisdo> Also, is there a way to force-add a NewGRF to a save? (e.g. one that adds 32bpp trains)
05:15:41  <hmmwhatsthisdo> Oh, nvm about that last question.

07:46:07  <gynter> Hello, is it possible to keep the server console in foreground, but also log everything to a logfile?
07:46:25  <frosch123> "tie" ?
07:46:55  <frosch123> hmm, or was it called differently
07:47:02  <Rubidium> tea?
07:47:20  <__ln__> wearing a tie is a good idea, but would you like tee instead?
07:47:25  <gynter> blah tee, ofc
07:47:30  <gynter> sorry, need moar coffee
07:47:39  <frosch123> yeah, "tee"
07:47:59  <__ln__> with sugar and milk?
07:51:25  <planetmaker> black tee please ;-)
07:51:28  <planetmaker> good morning
07:51:45  <Rubidium> sorry, I don't golf ;)

07:52:56  <planetmaker> :-)
07:53:46  <gynter> without & yes :)
07:55:16  <gynter> hmm, but why aren't the "dbg:" lines being logged?
07:56:49  <frosch123> maybe they go to stderr, so "./openttd -D |& tee -a file.log"
07:57:26  <planetmaker> 2&>1 missing maybe

08:00:56  <andythenorth> what does today hold?
08:00:58  <andythenorth> besides boats?
08:02:05  <planetmaker> wrong window... still not focus for mouse-over enabled. It's getting me more often than nice :-)
08:04:24  <frosch123> yeah, interestingly "focus on mouse-over" is quite important for big screens
08:04:57  <frosch123> in the 90's that behaviour annoyed me a lot, and i always tried to disable it on weird unix machines
08:05:11  * andythenorth can't imagine this
08:05:19  <andythenorth> what are these 'big screens' you speak of? :o
08:05:22  <frosch123> that changes since having at least 2 monitors everywhere
08:05:40  <frosch123> andythenorth: those were you have to turn your head
08:05:43  <frosch123> *where
08:05:49  <planetmaker> :-)
08:05:53  <frosch123> 2 screens, 3, 6...
08:05:56  * andythenorth has A4 paper-sized screen and is sticking with it
08:06:59  <andythenorth> things /me will be moaning about today include:
08:07:01  <andythenorth> - smoke
08:07:04  <frosch123> most impressive about 6 screens is the massive tripod (?) they are attached to :p
08:07:07  <andythenorth> - FIRS templates
08:07:14  <andythenorth> - babies
08:07:19  <andythenorth> which of those can you help with? :o

08:20:47  <DorpsGek> -Codechange: Improve coding style (Juanjo)
08:23:43  <Alberth> planetmaker: a single file for nml_langcheck is becoming complicated, preferences on what to do (make a subdir in build-common, make a subdir in make-nml, make a new project, are the options I can see atm)?

08:25:10  <planetmaker> Alberth, I've no problem, if you create a sub-dir
08:25:51  <Alberth> that would be the simplest, I agree :)
08:26:13  <planetmaker> if you prefer to have it a separate tool (and there's some reason for that, too), I've no issue with that, either. But it would not help *my* workflow :-P

13:53:04  <BadBrett> 1) what file size do you think is a acceptable for 32bbp grf containing 1 industry? 2) in nml, if the same sprite is loaded twice or is unused, will it still affect the file size?
13:54:42  <Yexo> 1) it really depends on the industry, 1 tile without animations is completely different from 10 tiles with lots of animations
13:55:03  <BadBrett> yes i knww
13:55:09  <BadBrett> but i'm using lots of animations
13:55:10  <Yexo> 2) unused spritesets shouldn't affect the filesize, but if you use only a single sprite out of a spriteset all of them will end up in the grf
13:55:34  <BadBrett> so the file size seems to get really big
13:55:43  <BadBrett> and i'm looking for ways to reduce it
13:56:08  <BadBrett> 4x4 industry, 3 animations frames, extra zoom levels and it's already at 8 mb
13:56:10  <Yexo> for using a sprite twice it depends on too many factors: do you use a spriteset two times or two different spritesets with the same sprites, can nml find a way to reuse the spriteset etc.
13:59:33  <Alberth> hi yexo, could you please somewhen have a look at nml patch #4299 ( https://dev.openttdcoop.org/issues/4299 ) and feature patch #4385 ( https://dev.openttdcoop.org/issues/4385 )
13:59:54  <Yexo> of course
14:00:56  <Alberth> nml patch tracker seems to be outside the set of monitored entities :)
14:01:12  <Yexo> indeed
14:04:13  <BadBrett> ok... i meant, for example, if a spriteset contains duplicates of a certain sprite to make sure that it contains the same number of sprites as another spriteset... would it be better do add empty "dummy" sprites?
14:04:43  <Yexo> I think currently nml will add duplicate sprites to the newgrf in that case
14:04:59  <BadBrett> which should affect the file size i guess
14:05:12  <Yexo> there is a feature request on the issue tracker to change that, but it isn't implemented atm
14:05:27  <Yexo> https://dev.openttdcoop.org/issues/4046
14:05:51  <BadBrett> i guess a dirty solution would be to use a 1x1 blank png for these sprites
14:06:19  <BadBrett> to keep the size down
14:06:35  <Yexo> if you are sure those sprites are not referenced simply put [] in the spriteset
14:09:18  <BadBrett> ah cool

14:14:16  <Yexo> so unused sprites are not actively loaded in memory, they might still be there if they are used previously

14:30:16  <Yexo> why can't people adhere to a single coding style?
14:30:22  <Yexo> I don't care what style, as long as it's consistent
14:31:05  <andythenorth> forgetful :)
14:31:05  <Yexo> specific case: FS#5333. I really like the example, it's as simple as possible while still demonstrating the exact cause
14:31:13  <Yexo> but reading the code is a nightmare
14:31:24  <Yexo> andythenorth: it's one file with about 60 LOC
14:31:30  <andythenorth> ugh
14:31:42  * andythenorth ponders what to do next
14:32:11  <andythenorth> sorting out FIRS snow is really unmotivating
14:36:02  <Alberth> Yexo: It's just like writing documents, you have to learn how to do it, and what not to do
14:36:27  <andythenorth> could a tool be written to migrate FIRS spritelayouts?
14:37:27  <Alberth> load them in NML, and examine the nodes?
14:38:00  <andythenorth> there are currently two main methods in use, one deprecated
14:38:08  <andythenorth> they need migrating from one to the other
14:38:25  <andythenorth> I have a real block about reading them for some reason
14:38:52  <andythenorth> every time I try to read this code I just see BLAH_BLAH_BLAH(BLAH)
14:38:59  <andythenorth> nothing sticks
14:39:08  <andythenorth> which is a bit silly :P
14:39:53  <andythenorth> they are commented and such
14:42:54  <Alberth> wrong names used?
14:43:28  <andythenorth> dunno
14:43:30  <andythenorth> SPRITELAYOUT_NORMAL(THIS_ID(spritelayout_2), THIS_ID(spriteset_ground), THIS_ID(spriteset_2), 48)
14:43:45  <andythenorth> probably not wrong
14:44:08  <andythenorth> an industry tile is probably pretty standard I reckon
14:44:22  <andythenorth> the kind of thing that could be represented by a class easily
14:44:48  <Alberth> write oonml? :)
14:44:53  <andythenorth> pynml

19:28:06  <Jensen1986> There is noting to do but start all over.
19:28:45  <FLHerne> It *might* be safe to add a vehicle newgrf, which would allow passengers-per-car to be different
19:28:58  <FLHerne> Anyway, OTTD has loads of new features to play with :-)
19:29:11  <FLHerne> Might be worth starting over anyway ;-)
19:29:18  <Jensen1986> If you like this game how about capitalism 2?
19:29:51  <FLHerne> Dunno. Haven't played it :P
19:30:03  * FLHerne googles
19:30:37  <Jensen1986> whaaat?? You gotta try it. Old game but still. Way more realistic than this one. But I confess that in the end I allways end up playing ttd
19:31:00  <FLHerne> Looks interesting. If I see a copy anywhere, I'll get it :-)
19:31:27  <FLHerne> There are some fairly realistic grfs for OTTD now though :P
19:31:32  <FLHerne> Seen FIRS? :D
19:31:43  <Jensen1986> Well im off starting all over in opentt thanks guys.
19:31:52  <Jensen1986> FIRS ? Whats that?
19:31:57  <FLHerne> Only adds 31 cargoes and several dozen industry types :P
19:32:19  <FLHerne> FIRS Industry Replacement Set, apparently ;-)
19:32:38  <Jensen1986> ok. Well im gonna try it not. See you

21:48:19  <hmmwhatsthisdo> I have a Factory with two train stations connected to it. (One in, one out) - I forgot to set "unload and leave empty" on the inbound trains, and now my factory is putting goods in the inbound station as well as the outbound station. How can I fix it?
21:49:28  <hmmwhatsthisdo> I tried setting "unload and leave empty" on the inbound trains, but it's still hovering below 20% and putting goods in the inbound station
21:52:16  <Rubidium> the only way is removing the station completely

21:59:17  <hmmwhatsthisdo> ...and that would require me fixing all my trains, huh?
22:00:37  <FLHerne> hmmwhatsthisdo: As in, remove input station, make new one, tell your trains to go there instead
22:00:48  <hmmwhatsthisdo> yea, that's what I though
22:00:51  <hmmwhatsthisdo> *thought
22:00:52  <FLHerne> If all your trains have shared orders, that's simple
22:01:01  <FLHerne> If they don't, they probably should :P
22:01:49  <hmmwhatsthisdo> they do
22:03:13  <hmmwhatsthisdo> it's just that I had it removed for maybe 2 days in-game and now my empty steel mill has 3500 units waiting
22:04:31  <FLHerne> hmmwhatsthisdo: Why? Just demolish it, put a new one on the same site, ctrl-clicking to stop it becoming the old one
22:04:37  <FLHerne> Or did I miss the problem?
22:04:43  <hmmwhatsthisdo> I did that
22:04:56  <hmmwhatsthisdo> it just caused a little traffic jam is all
22:05:44  <FLHerne> Well, that happens :P

22:24:11  <FLHerne> hmmwhatsthisdo: No, they're broken a bit :P
22:24:38  <FLHerne> There's a hacky patch to put signals on them, but it hasn't been trunked because of the 'hacky' part :P
