15:42:29  <supermop> hi frosch123
15:43:03  <frosch123> moin
15:43:47  <Alberth> hola
15:44:50  <Alberth> what's the usecase for supporting symbolic links in tarfiles?
15:48:07  <frosch123> do you remember the days when there were dos and win paletted grfs and 32bpp in tars?
15:48:40  <Alberth> never very consiously, but yeah :)
15:49:03  <frosch123> someone thought: if grfs only differ by filename and 8bpp graphics, but shall share the 32bpp, then symlink them
15:49:15  <frosch123> i.e. i think you can safetly trash the symlink stuff :)
15:50:07  <Alberth> makes sense
15:50:42  <supermop> what case would they share 32bpp? to save file space?
15:51:10  <Alberth> and move the files of a tar inside the tarfile object, at least that seems like a good idea to me too :)
15:53:12  <Alberth> ie move elements of TarFileList _tar_filelist[NUM_SUBDIRS]; into elements of TarList _tar_list[NUM_SUBDIRS];
16:05:31  <Alberth> supermop: 32bpp doesn't change if you switch from DOS to WIN palette for 8bpp
16:06:34  *** Wolf01 has joined #openttd
16:06:39  <Wolf01> o/
16:07:13  <Alberth> ie  dos.grf   win.grf   and some form of  dos32.grf and win32.grf  (names are wrong is my guess)
16:07:19  <Alberth> o/ W
16:18:53  <Wolf01> So, something interesting happened while I was busy with flu?
16:19:09  <Alberth> the number of the year changed?
16:19:18  * frosch123 was about to ask the same :p
16:19:43  <Wolf01> Besides that?
16:19:47  <Alberth> so that pretty much sums it up , I think
16:23:39  <Wolf01> Seem that the most wanted features now are: define roadtypes a city could build and elevated roadtypes with disabled collisions
16:26:22  <frosch123> first one sounds like "build newest roadtype that has flag 'city buildable'", and raises the question when to update
16:26:38  <frosch123> otoh, roads could just have date-dependant graphics
16:27:04  <frosch123> the latter would make sense for suspension rail
16:27:54  <frosch123> it would increase the loading capacity of roadstops when using both buses and trams )
16:29:08  <frosch123> problem might be that people want ordinate tram under suspended tram :p
16:29:52  <Wolf01> Plausible
16:30:07  <Wolf01> Also I was trying to get if a road was a "country road" some days ago, but somebody told me is already possible to check it with varaction 2 or something
16:30:20  <frosch123> yes
16:30:30  <frosch123> but we need fence-support
16:30:42  <frosch123> currently roadtypes do not supply any roadsides
16:31:04  <Wolf01> It shouldn't be that hard
16:31:41  <frosch123> Wolf01: all road tiles have a reference to the owning or nearest town btw
16:31:53  <frosch123> so, querying any town stuff is generally easy for roads
16:31:59  <Wolf01> Yes, I figured that out
16:32:51  <Wolf01> About roadsides, we should change completely the code which handles the stuff drawin in town zones
16:33:15  <Wolf01> Because one roadtype in a town zone might not want to follow the default
16:35:38  <frosch123> i think about adding a flag "do not draw default roadsides", setting it by default for the tram typesa
16:35:51  <frosch123> and then adding a123 graphics for fences
16:37:16  <Wolf01> What about adding an array of roadsides so a roadtype could configure it how it wants? The default roads uses an array of the defaults roadsides
16:37:19  <frosch123> hmm, andy spammed fs
16:38:19  <frosch123> did andy have some disease? why would anyone comment on fs suggestions?
16:46:28  <V453000> xd
16:47:35  <Alberth> christmas present by andy, perhaps :p
16:48:20  <Wolf01> What did he do this time?

18:36:51  <andythenorth> ^ ‘small’ were drawn last night; ‘micro’ and ‘mini’ are old FISH sprites that need a bit more work
18:37:26  <andythenorth> oops, forgot to un-retina the image :)
18:37:29  <andythenorth> might be big
18:37:42  <frosch123> browser zoom
18:40:15  <frosch123> no houses in the middle
18:40:42  <andythenorth> there will be
18:41:07  <frosch123> large freighter does not really look larger than the small one
18:41:34  <frosch123> wrt. cargo space
18:41:43  <andythenorth> I wondered that
18:42:01  <andythenorth> even looking at photos of ships, size is really hard to tell
18:42:08  <andythenorth> for similar shapes
18:42:33  <frosch123> large livestock and fridge front lacks the black floor
18:42:38  <frosch123> looks kind of hollow
18:43:08  <frosch123> also large piece
18:43:18  <frosch123> is it supposed to look like that?
18:43:58  <andythenorth> it is, but if it looks weird…it could look different
18:44:08  <andythenorth> it can continue the grey
18:45:35  <andythenorth> eh, by volume the large freight is 3.75 times more capacity than the small
18:45:47  <andythenorth> the in-game capacity is 2.4 times
18:45:56  <andythenorth> but that is totally not discoverable by eye
18:47:24  <frosch123> it is somewhat wider
18:48:34  <andythenorth> it doesn’t look bigger; looks further away
18:48:38  <andythenorth> eh how about this? http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/8314/sam-so-far-2.png
18:49:50  <frosch123> did something change? except the alignment?
18:50:42  <andythenorth> alignment only
18:50:52  <frosch123> i prefer the centered one
18:51:27  <andythenorth> yes, it’s graphically preferable
18:51:46  <andythenorth> it just causes an unfortunate size perception effect :)
18:51:56  <andythenorth> it’s related to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_constancy
18:52:38  <supermop> Yo andythenorth
18:52:45  <frosch123> well, the large freighter mostly grows in the back and the front, but not in the cargo space :)
18:57:19  <Alberth> cargo space extends under the front and back :p
18:59:57  <andythenorth> I think the bow is too long relative to hold space
19:00:03  <andythenorth> and maybe the house too
19:00:28  <andythenorth> I don’t mind redrawing these a lot
19:01:03  <andythenorth> I’m going to write a compositor to make the different models from each hull type
19:01:21  <andythenorth> draw each hull+house combo once, get it good
19:01:26  <frosch123> i thought you already did :o
19:04:43  <andythenorth> not until the perception is right :P
19:04:58  <andythenorth> the size effects on ships have been bugging me for a long time

19:23:51  <andythenorth> yeah it was shared here

19:30:28  <andythenorth> are hard to judge size of :P
19:36:53  <Lejving> I wish this wasn't a somewhat decent chat, then I'd make an adult joke :(
19:40:21  <andythenorth> it’s ok, we can make it in our heads
19:42:54  <andythenorth> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/8315/GCV-shape.png
19:43:20  <andythenorth> think I should push the house back a couple of pixels, and bow forwards

19:58:28  *** ZirconiumX has quit IRC
20:03:18  <frosch123> not sure whether you made the large one larger, or the small one smaller, but i think they look different now :)
20:05:05  <andythenorth> the hold is 4px longer in the big one
20:05:45  <andythenorth> and the shape is changed enough, the small one doesn’t look like a further-away repeat of big one
20:10:49  <Wolf01> While you are at it you could do a tribute to Cussler's Oregon :P
20:17:23  * andythenorth googles :P
20:18:15  <Wolf01> It's difficult to find the real one, or at least good pictures of it
