05:24:50  <argoneus> ffff
05:28:44  <V453000> gg
05:37:13  <argoneus> I am wondering
05:37:25  <argoneus> I want to make a script, that takes a giant screenshot once in a while and uploads it to my website
05:37:36  <argoneus> I suppose I have to use a script with Expect or such?
05:37:48  <argoneus> or is it possible somehow even normally
05:37:57  <argoneus> like with a parameter or a rcon command
05:39:20  <V453000> idk but how about launching the game as network, and your second client simply stays in one position and takes screenshot every $time
05:39:32  <V453000> I think gettile moves your viewport
05:42:03  <argoneus> doesn't network game start the GUI too?
05:42:43  <V453000> well does but idk if you can make that automatic
05:43:45  <argoneus> hmm
05:45:22  <argoneus> I'll just use my irc bot with the admin port
05:45:38  <argoneus> and through that run screenshot
05:45:42  <argoneus> I guess
05:46:45  <andythenorth> o/
05:48:13  <argoneus> the question is
05:48:14  <argoneus> if I can somehow get the openttd folder
05:48:14  <argoneus> because on windows and linux they are different
05:48:14  <argoneus> oh wait I can just specify that in config, right
05:48:14  <argoneus> should be fine

07:47:47  <andythenorth> my forum sig
07:47:53  <andythenorth> does not have all sets
07:47:58  <andythenorth> but then it would be big
07:47:58  <Supercheese> I just hopped in a game, typed "list_cmds", found those :P
07:48:02  <andythenorth> big sig is BAD FEATURE

07:56:57  <Supercheese> Yes, https://wiki.openttd.org/Console_Commands could use an update or two
07:57:06  <Supercheese> it doesn't have "getdate" for one

08:29:27  <andythenorth> roadtypes!
08:30:22  <andythenorth> mostly so steam trams don’t have wires
08:30:43  <andythenorth> no gameplay reason
08:31:06  <andythenorth> can’t we just forget roadtypes, and set a tile-has-power bit instead?
08:31:14  <andythenorth> then we can have steam / diesel trams with no wires
08:31:19  <andythenorth> and we can have electric trucks and crap
08:36:17  <andythenorth> bbl
08:36:18  *** andythenorth [~Andy@cpc10-aztw26-2-0-cust867.18-1.cable.virginm.net] has quit [Quit: andythenorth]
08:42:10  <argoneus> we could also have railroad-has-power
08:42:28  <argoneus> and then you need to haul coal to power stations with cars, and wire electricity to your railroads
08:42:35  <argoneus> else you can't use electrified railroads
08:42:57  <argoneus> we could have 'electricity hopper'
08:43:05  <argoneus> which carries 500 watt-tons
08:45:04  <V453000> ...
08:45:13  <V453000> just have batteries :)
08:51:00  <Rubidium> argoneus: doesn't help screenshot show which options there are? For example 'screenshot giant <filename>'
08:57:38  <argoneus> Rubidium: it said no video driver available
08:57:48  <argoneus> I think the server needs to be able to run the actual game to take a screenshot?

08:58:47  <Xaroth|Work> unless you run it with a video driver
08:59:03  <argoneus> aw, there goes my idea of having automatic screenshots of current progress
09:03:47  <planetmaker> maybe I should un-earth my keep-blitter-for-dedicated-server-patch :P

09:16:07  *** Celestar [~Celestar@firebeta9.tngtech.com] has left #openttd []
09:16:40  <argoneus> how does that work?
09:20:05  <planetmaker> the cheap way is to remove some #ifdef
09:22:49  <argoneus> but without a video driver and starting the game
09:22:54  <argoneus> you cannot draw pictures
09:22:55  <argoneus> no?
09:23:34  <argoneus> I mean, you probably can in theory
09:23:41  <argoneus> but is that how ottd works?
09:25:12  <peter1138> well it used to be possible but then someone™ removed it, because in general servers rendering is not wanted
09:25:34  *** KouDy [~koudy@188.75.190.58] has quit [Read error: Operation timed out]
09:25:43  <peter1138> the change to reenable it is probably quite simple. if you know the code.
09:25:52  <peter1138> which planetmaker clearly does :)

09:35:02  <argoneus> how does the giant screenshot work anyway?
09:35:10  <argoneus> does it just take the map array and render tile by tile into a picture?
09:35:20  <argoneus> or is it something different
09:35:47  *** andythenorth [~Andy@194.168.185.226] has left #openttd []
09:35:58  <Xaroth|Work> close enough
09:37:20  <peter1138> something like that
09:39:12  <argoneus> so it's just some sdl routine to render the tiles and save it into an image?
09:39:20  <argoneus> e.g. it doesn't necessarily need a GPU or the game running?
09:39:23  <argoneus> ie*

09:57:11  <Tykling-9167> I am on a windows laptop without a mouse and I've tried configuring "function of scrollwheel" to "scroll map" but I am still unable to scroll the map
09:58:21  <Tykling-9167> if it is set to "zoom map" it zooms in and out alright, isn't it weird that it won't scroll the map then ?
09:59:25  <peter1138> nothing to do with SDL
10:00:02  <Tykling-9167> was that for me ?
10:00:05  <peter1138> no
10:00:09  <Tykling-9167> :) ok thanks
10:01:48  <Tykling-9167> hm looks like I can scroll using the "pan at window edge" function

10:06:52  <wousser> Hi, congrats on the 1.4.3 release. I'm looking for the roadmap for future versions. Seems the one on the wiki is not accurate.
10:09:22  <LordAro> "accurate"
10:09:29  <LordAro> it's nonexistent :p
10:09:51  <wousser> It was with the 0.7 releases ;)
10:10:34  <wousser> So where are the bugs, new features, enhancements now taken from? The bugtracker?
10:11:27  <LordAro> largely
10:11:52  <wousser> However, none of the issues are tagged to releases
10:14:21  <planetmaker> argoneus, some months (or years) ago https://paste.openttdcoop.org/pjtmhyhgs was sufficient
10:15:34  <peter1138> and if it's not a dedicated server build...
10:15:37  <planetmaker> wousser, there is no road map. Fixing bugs is surely a priority. Features and other changes happen as they do
10:15:57  <peter1138> just specifying a resolution and a blitter might let you do it
10:16:51  <planetmaker> I  think that's how it worked, peter1138. The cfg had a blitter and a resolution. And then the screenshot command would write images using those two
10:17:29  <planetmaker> it's a bit ago when coop used that patch on servers
10:17:31  <peter1138> yeah, well the someone™ who disabled it by default was... er... well...
10:18:06  <planetmaker> it's disabled for long. Dunno when or why actually. I recon it could be changed to be allowed by a separate compiler flag
10:18:19  <planetmaker> like KEEP_BLITTER or whatever
10:18:30  <peter1138> just compile a non-dedicated build and it'll be fine
10:18:39  <peter1138> it's only a couple of extra libs ;p
10:19:08  <peter1138> who even compiles dedicated builds?
10:19:22  <peter1138> our premade binaries are always full, aren't they?
10:19:51  <planetmaker> yes, they are. coop and reddit compile, for what I know. I don't know any other servers
10:20:08  <peter1138> i used to but i'm lazy now
10:20:15  <peter1138> only compile for trunk heh
10:20:35  <planetmaker> the need for the full xlibs is big. Just enabling blitter keeps deps low
10:20:53  <planetmaker> yeah... so do I. Server updates are easy... just call !update on irc for me :)
10:21:08  <peter1138> hmm
10:21:10  <peter1138> ah of course
10:21:17  <peter1138> i have mono on my server, so that lot is already there :S
10:21:19  <planetmaker> admin port client for the win :)
10:21:22  <peter1138> forgot about that
10:21:36  <peter1138> so when do we start making dedicated server builds? :p
10:22:28  <planetmaker> ask TrueBrain. We got not the server to do since June :P
10:22:39  <planetmaker> yay for unwarranted highlight also :P
10:22:46  <peter1138> not the server?
10:23:10  <planetmaker> our server where the CF runs on. It's got more ram, more cpu than before. So CF should easily handle that
10:23:40  <planetmaker> would still probably not be worth it. Dunno
10:25:08  <peter1138> not the server means you don't have it... but... ok
10:25:31  <peter1138> is it still ovh?
10:26:22  <peter1138> i have a 16GB 3GHz quad core with ovh, heh
10:26:32  <planetmaker> yeah. So does OpenTTD :P
10:26:39  <peter1138> no raid though
10:26:47  <peter1138> so only a single 2TB disk
10:26:54  <peter1138> == backups are vital :p
10:27:03  <peter1138> i mean, they are anyway, but still
10:28:14  <planetmaker> 2*2TB raid1 for OpenTTD
10:29:06  <planetmaker> hm, though I think we have 32GB ram... I forgot :P
10:29:22  <peter1138> it's the best box i have access to :(
10:29:40  <planetmaker> http://www.soyoustart.com/de/angebote/game-3.xml <-- bit modified system from that
10:29:56  <planetmaker> no ssd as they were too small for our banannananananas stuff
10:29:59  <peter1138> mine is a kimsufi one
10:30:05  <peter1138> they're a bit cheaper
10:30:19  <peter1138> also only 100mbit, not 1gbit
10:30:44  <peter1138> i looked at soyoustart until i realised the price quote was for a *half* month... o_O
10:31:17  <planetmaker> yeah, they must have changed that. I find that... mis-leading trickery
10:31:41  <peter1138> it was to do with a half price offer, but it was for 2 weeks only
10:31:43  <planetmaker> soyoustart is ovh, btw
10:31:55  <peter1138> so the only price shown was the 2 week price
10:31:56  <peter1138> yes i know
10:32:01  <peter1138> as is kimsufi

11:25:34  <planetmaker> efess, please feel invited to remedy the situation and submit a patch :)
11:25:43  <planetmaker> maybe also as extra command
11:26:52  <efess> I can look into it
11:27:18  <planetmaker> maybe two or three new commands:
11:27:30  <planetmaker> listactivenewgrf, listactiveai, listactivegame
11:28:02  <planetmaker> in similarity to listai, listgame. There's no listnewgrf yet, though
11:28:57  <efess> we had an issue with CB, came down to the wrong cb script in the content_download folder
11:29:06  <efess> ah
11:29:31  <efess> it would also be useful for stats/gamestatus
11:30:07  <planetmaker> listing the active game script in gamelog would also be useful, yes. It's part of crashlog already
11:30:44  <planetmaker> but it might make sense to indicate in gamelog when / if the active GS changes or on reload is not found
11:30:56  <planetmaker> and which is used on start, similar to listed NewGRFs
11:31:50  <planetmaker> maybe you can formulate an idea on what would be nice and first have that up for discussion. There surely are some more people who might have valuable input
11:32:07  <planetmaker> but having some working solution first often is a good idea, too :P

16:25:26  <argoneus> ah
16:25:31  <argoneus> so if my trains go mostly on long plains
16:25:34  <argoneus> then it makes sense medium is enough?
16:25:49  <Sylf> NUTS isn't built for flat maps
16:25:59  <Sylf> but for that, fast class is good enough
16:25:59  <argoneus> the map isn't flat

16:26:20  <Eddi|zuHause> <peter1138> needing a reason leads to the peril of andythenorth <-- but the whole point of NUTS was all gameplay and no "realism"?
16:26:40  <argoneus> I just can't really calculate in my head
16:26:48  <argoneus> how much horsepower/tractive effort I need for my cargo
16:26:54  <Pinkbeast> signals before slopes really caught me out in UKRS2 where the Crampton has essentially no tractive effort
16:27:12  <Sylf> We don't really think about just enough
16:27:32  <Sylf> for that, most NUTS engines are overpowered
16:27:44  <Pinkbeast> argoneus: I generally start with the locomotive and fiddle the train length post-facto
16:28:01  <Sylf> especially the later generation ones
16:28:47  <peter1138> hmm, status bar is a bit wierd with giant fonts
16:28:53  <peter1138> could do with stretch

16:51:19  <frosch123> if we make the ticker scroll vertically, we could also allow resizing it vertically, so the last n messages are visible

16:55:52  <Alberth> if "real news" gets delayed, the ticker news is old too, probably
16:56:30  <Alberth> which would suggest "too much" news
16:58:32  <Alberth> which is of course to be expected if you make the world larger by a factor 16 or more

17:03:34  <argoneus> so if space is not an issue, I am good?
17:03:47  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: yes. but what makes the ticker worse than "real news" is that you can't speed it up with space bar.

17:31:34  <LordAro> Rubidium: woops :p

17:35:52  <Pinkbeast> I might - numbering the platforms 1-8 - line the incoming lines up with platforms 1 and 8, but able to access any platform (but they'll prefer to go to their own edges); align the outgoing lines with 0 and 9, so to speak, with 1-4 feeding into 0 and 5-8 feeding into 9; then use tunnels or bridges to join up the outgoing lines later.
17:36:34  <argoneus> how about this? http://puu.sh/bOMQq/306d640ff8.png
17:37:36  <Pinkbeast> That's more plausible. I dislike trains turning more than 45 degrees overall at station entrances; I'd build slightly bigger knitting to accomodate that.
17:38:13  <Pinkbeast> Also the signals on the exits seem to reflect different maximum train lengths
17:38:25  <argoneus> they are just at the junctions
17:39:02  <Pinkbeast> But if they can be pushed back towards the station a bit without allowing a train to foul the exit pointwork, so much the better...
17:40:22  <Pinkbeast> For example, http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~damerell/games/rennford/station-1840.png - a train never turns more than 45 degrees from the station/track axis

17:46:46  <argoneus> okay
17:46:49  <argoneus> I came up with this Pinkbeast
17:46:59  <argoneus> http://puu.sh/bONx8/bd3065337d.png
17:47:09  <argoneus> is this what you meant
17:48:48  <Eddi|zuHause> seems decent, except i would scratch the first X at the entrance and the last X at the exit
17:48:56  <argoneus> really? why?
17:49:04  <argoneus> I need to re-balance the lines somehow, no?
17:49:24  <Eddi|zuHause> that is a neat idea, but crossovers at a main line never work out
17:49:27  <Pinkbeast> Eddi|zuHause: That's an ollld screenshot
17:49:45  <argoneus> where do I re-balance them, then?
17:49:55  <Eddi|zuHause> you don't
17:50:03  <Pinkbeast> argoneus: Well, I find that more aesthetically satisfying, anyway.
17:50:03  <argoneus> huh
17:50:13  <Eddi|zuHause> just put exactly the same number of trains on either network
17:50:56  <Pinkbeast> If you were going to, I'd let trains from platforms 4 and 5 choose which exit line to use.
17:51:09  <argoneus> oh
17:51:11  <argoneus> that's a good idea
17:52:55  <Eddi|zuHause> also, the signal gap on the exit seems too large (between the first signal and the second signal)
17:53:55  <Eddi|zuHause> in general, the signal gap should be smaller in areas where trains accelerate
17:54:15  <argoneus> http://puu.sh/bOO0R/b75487461a.png ?
17:54:36  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, pretty much
17:54:45  <Eddi|zuHause> now let the trains roam!
17:54:47  <Rubidium> LordAro: I think it should be solved now
17:55:01  <argoneus> now to make the other station
17:55:01  <argoneus> :D
17:55:08  <Pinkbeast> Well, I'd still lose the "skate right across the entrance" line at a right angle to the axis.
17:55:18  <Pinkbeast> ... oh, which has come back.
17:55:27  <argoneus> it's so they can choose a line from the other end
17:55:31  <argoneus> but they won't prioritize that, no?
17:55:34  <argoneus> only as last resort
17:55:42  <Eddi|zuHause> they should NEVER go to the other end
17:55:52  <Eddi|zuHause> that will ALWAYS cause more harm than good
17:56:00  <argoneus> okay
17:56:05  <argoneus> I'll just lose the perpendicular
17:56:12  <argoneus> and then it should be ok?
17:56:26  <Pinkbeast> Quite. Letting 4 and 5 swap over provides a bit of rebalancing, but letting 1 steam across to 8 is bleh.
17:56:42  <argoneus> true
17:56:48  <argoneus> that could block traffic for a long while
17:57:54  <Pinkbeast> It depends a bit on train length, speed, and power/TE. A 9F can get a lot of coal moving, but it's not exactly a quick process. (And if trains are arriving full, or leaving)
17:58:39  <Pinkbeast> Particularly when flattening out land, I'll flatten up for a loading station, so empties go uphill into it, but full trains run downhill when accelerating.
17:59:09  <Pinkbeast> And even for a pax station there's something to be said for that. (The technique is used for-real on the Tube)

20:02:21  <peter1138> yeah
20:02:29  <peter1138> different purchase list sprites

20:55:00  <smith1232> hi, all. i am trying to setup a dedicated server behind a router. for some reason, nmap says tcp 3979 is open (service smwan), but udp 3979 is open|filtered (service unknown). does anyone have a clue as to what might be the case here?
20:56:02  <planetmaker> @ports
20:56:02  <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)
20:57:41  <smith1232> yeah, i have all of those open in my port forwarding router settings.
20:57:55  <smith1232> but something is obviously incorrect, have no idea what.
20:58:04  <smith1232> granted, my router is a piece of junk.
20:58:05  <Rubidium> doesn't filtered imply that it's firewalled?
20:58:16  <smith1232> open|filtered means nmap doesnt know.
20:58:23  <smith1232> but yes, filtered would be firewalled.
20:58:26  <smith1232> and it is not.
20:58:36  <Rubidium> also, many routers' forwarding only works from outside to the inside, not from inside to inside
20:58:55  <Rubidium> or at least the cheap broadband ones ISPs give
20:58:57  <smith1232> let me try to explain: iptables is letting everything through, the firewall on the router is off.
20:59:20  <smith1232> of course, i am trying to access the game "from the outside"
20:59:29  <smith1232> not really, but i am using the outside ip of the router
20:59:40  <smith1232> which should mean that the packets go out and back, right?
20:59:51  <peter1138> no
20:59:51  <Rubidium> yeah, so if you're on the "inside"... then it's likely not going to work
20:59:56  <smith1232> hm
21:00:09  <smith1232> could someone help me test then?
21:00:19  <Rubidium> is it advertising?
21:00:29  <smith1232> no
21:00:56  <smith1232> i would give you the ip
21:00:59  <Rubidium> enable that, if it shows up at servers.openttd.org then it works (or at least the UDP)

22:58:04  <argoneus> how do wetrails work?
22:58:09  <argoneus> I thought you could place them on water :(

23:10:11  <Eddi|zuHause> no. they just look like water. for the game they work like rails, so they must be placed on land
23:12:12  <argoneus> oh
23:14:28  <argoneus> also
23:14:45  <argoneus> the bottom part of this
23:14:52  <argoneus> http://puu.sh/bPb3u/688ef328dd.png
23:15:02  <argoneus> why is there the unreachable part with the combo signals?
23:15:07  <argoneus> wouldn't doublesided combo signals work?
23:15:12  <argoneus> without special shenanigans
23:15:32  <Eddi|zuHause> no, because they would effectively increase the signal distance
23:15:55  <argoneus> don't they behave as block signals in the direction where no entry signal is specified?
23:16:19  <Eddi|zuHause> the combo signal is both an entry and an exit signal
23:16:24  <Eddi|zuHause> so when one is red, all are red
23:16:29  <Eddi|zuHause> in both directions
23:16:51  <argoneus> oh
23:16:59  <argoneus> so if I have onesided entry signal, and twosided combo signal
23:17:06  <argoneus> then if entry is red, both combo are red?
23:17:24  <argoneus> I thought it only worked in the one way
23:17:26  <argoneus> ohhhh
23:17:31  <argoneus> it behaves as an entry signal in the one direction

23:46:32  <argoneus> is there a reason why there cannot be signal type A in one direction and signal type B in another direction?
23:46:36  <argoneus> is it difficult to implement?
23:47:13  <Eddi|zuHause> that would mean in a tile with || or = rails, there are 4 different signals on it
23:47:16  <Eddi|zuHause> needs too many bits
23:47:23  <Eddi|zuHause> also, it's fiddly
23:47:34  <Eddi|zuHause> and nobody uses block signals anyway
23:48:13  <argoneus> I d o :(

23:50:26  <argoneus> Eddi|zuHause: so you would need 12*4 bits for each tile?
23:50:30  <argoneus> just for signals
23:50:35  <argoneus> er
23:50:36  <argoneus> 12*2*4
23:51:09  <argoneus> ^ nevermind
23:51:59  <Eddi|zuHause> 3 bits for signal type, 1 bit for signal state, 1 bit for style
23:52:26  <Eddi|zuHause> 1 bit for whether the signal is present
23:52:33  <Eddi|zuHause> so 6*4
23:53:01  <argoneus> so if you wanted to do it separately
23:53:14  <argoneus> you would need 3! * 2 for signal type?
23:53:29  <Eddi|zuHause> that makes no sense
23:53:30  <argoneus> I mean, 12 values
23:53:33  <argoneus> which is, 4 bits

23:53:54  <Eddi|zuHause> there are 8 signal types (2 unused)
23:54:02  <argoneus> ah
23:54:11  <argoneus> and if you were to cover all combinations
23:54:29  <argoneus> it'd be many more
23:54:35  <Eddi|zuHause> the combinations are with repetition, so 8^4
23:54:56  <Eddi|zuHause> plus style, etc.
23:56:30  <argoneus> oh, right
23:56:36  <argoneus> I need to remove the dust on my combinatorics
