01:41:08  <Eddi|zuHause> (no idea why, shouldn't be that much of a difference between the two cards)

10:27:14  <Samu> oh boy this is quite the network
10:29:02  <Samu> map is 1024x1024, the affected vehicles are near the center of the map, a little bit to the north of it
10:30:13  *** acklen has joined #openttd
10:30:59  <Samu> the roads in Brunston, to the south east of those rail lines town are isolated,but the one that goes northwest is connected to a giant network of roads
10:32:46  <Samu> multiple connected roads to several other towns, industries, bridges, a big big network of roads, I would say it can connect to at least most of the entire side of the map, and the left side as well, and I just got into a road that can lead to the south side too, so... it's giant
10:33:45  <Samu> most of the entire *north* side of the map
10:35:22  <Samu> many road AIs in the game
10:35:49  <Samu> and their way of building roads, you can imagine the kind of network that is, if you're familiar with how they build

12:12:03  <Samu> LordAro: I found the cause
12:12:24  <Samu> i'm nearly sure it's due to the way the cache works
12:13:06  <Samu> when the road vehicle is about to enter the last tile that is in cache
12:13:14  <Samu> and is stuck in traffic
12:13:18  <Samu> which is the case
12:13:26  <Samu> it calls the pathfinder insistently
12:13:30  *** acklen has joined #openttd
12:14:05  <Samu> vehicle is "moving" at 0 km/h and constantly calling the pathfinder, which take 35000 ms each
12:15:18  <Samu> it happens that the road network is at, is such a big one, it doesn't find a path
12:15:33  <Samu> nothing is cached
12:15:38  <Samu> because it's the last tile
12:15:52  <Samu> so it retries pathfinding all the time

13:54:25  <Samu> there's some weird bugs with road consutrction
13:54:39  <Samu> doesn't build the same manner as before
13:55:51  <Samu> "land slopped in wrong direction" ... yeah, kinda true, but the last is already autosloped
13:56:04  <Samu> it fails to detect that
14:04:39  <Samu> im trying to manually build a giant road network
14:11:20  <LordAro> just lots of junctions should do it
14:11:23  *** acklen has joined #openttd
14:11:24  <LordAro> dense as you can
14:11:37  <LordAro> i was using a flat blank map earlier
14:11:40  <LordAro> makes it easier :p
14:13:59  <glx> I'm trying to reproduce #7672
14:16:47  *** andythenorth has joined #openttd
14:19:38  *** acklen has quit IRC
14:21:51  <glx> hmm unless there are more than 32 resolutions
14:21:59  <glx> let's try something
14:23:13  <Samu> omgggg im so dumb, i built a network on the wrong openttd version
14:23:21  <Samu> fml
14:23:28  *** acklen has joined #openttd
14:26:23  <glx> ok that's it
14:31:42  *** acklen has quit IRC
14:37:29  <Eddi|zuHause> 32 resolutions ought to be enough for anyone
14:38:01  <glx> yeah but it's now unlimited since https://github.com/OpenTTD/OpenTTD/commit/9195f2337a7c4f9154058877093bbb74db33cf32
14:38:13  <glx> I need to adapt some code :)

14:48:24  <LordAro> glx: how does more than 32 resolutions break it?
14:49:20  <glx> if (IsInsideMM(ind, (SPECSTR_RESOLUTION_START - 0x70E4), (SPECSTR_RESOLUTION_END - 0x70E4) + 1)) {
14:49:52  <glx> and SPECSTR_RESOLUTION_END     = SPECSTR_RESOLUTION_START + 0x1F
14:50:16  <glx> so more than 32 is outside and triggers NOT_REACHED
14:50:38  <LordAro> i see
14:52:51  <Eddi|zuHause> why the magic number 0x70E4?
14:53:13  * LordAro bets reverse engineering reasons
14:53:14  <glx> don't ask ;)
14:53:51  <peter1138> That was so much food
14:53:59  <peter1138> I'm ashamed :/
14:54:26  <Eddi|zuHause> just don't eat anything the rest of the week? i'm sure that works.
14:54:33  <peter1138> Yeah no

15:15:02  <andythenorth> oof
15:15:09  <glx> there are more than 2 games I can't play with my GPU :)
15:15:28  <Eddi|zuHause> i mean, games that somewhat worked before
15:16:09  <Eddi|zuHause> and by "play" i mean "it runs with >5fps"
15:17:47  <glx> my CPU is also an issue for many UE4 games (know issue with sound and some AMD cpu)

17:07:42  <Beerbelott> Is there a way to share stations between companies?
17:07:54  <LordAro> no
17:07:56  <Beerbelott> I do not see anything about it in https://wiki.openttd.org/Openttd.cfg#.5Bstation.5D
17:08:25  <Beerbelott> Ah OK. Could that be seen as an improvement, on top of explicit configuration to allow it?
17:08:29  <LordAro> there have been a few infrastructure sharing patches over the years, but they all had issues in some way or another
17:08:37  <Beerbelott> Ah OK
17:11:57  <Samu> just play in the same company?
17:15:01  <Samu> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXu0zuOKQ2A&list=RDcXu0zuOKQ2A&start_radio=1 her skin being decoupled, im oversensitive to this crap, feels like I'm watching a horror movie
17:15:32  <LordAro> and you somehow felt it appropriate to link here?
17:15:34  <LordAro> don't do that
17:16:52  <Samu> :( ok
17:17:26  <Samu> because I don't have anybody else to share
17:20:23  <FLHerne> Beerbelott: Note that oil rigs (and newgrf industries with built-in stations) are shared
17:20:48  <FLHerne> So you can transfer cargo between companies, just inconveniently
17:21:38  <FLHerne> Doing so breaks the payment system -- the company doing final delivery gets all the income -- which was one of the main problems with the patches
17:22:54  <FLHerne> (tracking all hops for each cargo-packet would be badly inefficient, and payment on transfer between companies is exploitable for cheating)
17:23:58  <Eddi|zuHause> bah, it's so annoying when you lose a world wonder like 2 turns before finishing it
17:24:13  <FLHerne> Are these like the AoE ones?
17:24:22  <Eddi|zuHause> no, the Civ ones
17:24:39  <Eddi|zuHause> whoever finishes it first, gets the bonus
17:25:37  *** acklen has quit IRC
17:33:14  <Samu> pay backwards
17:34:58  <Samu> cargo packets would need to store some additional info perhaps
17:40:03  <Samu> how would the income slice for each transfer round be computed
17:49:12  <peter1138> Isn't that quite the question?

19:04:45  <Beerbelott> FLHerne: Yeah I was wondering about those "Transfer" payments... Just remembered the payment is not done until a green income pops up...
19:05:04  <Beerbelott> That's a game mechanic, which makes sharing actually dangerous
19:05:12  <Beerbelott> Not a bad mechanic though
19:05:16  <Beerbelott> but uncontrollable
19:06:15  <FLHerne> Beerbelott: Right
19:06:28  <Beerbelott> About transfer payments... Is value 100% retained for transfered cargo? Or is there some loss?
19:06:36  <Beerbelott> I suppose there must be some decaying
19:07:01  <FLHerne> Beerbelott: Cargo value is based on time-in-transit, not counting waiting at stations
19:07:15  <Beerbelott> Hence no decaying at all?
19:07:53  <FLHerne> Under the 'charts' button there's a set of graphs of "average speed -> payment rate" per cargo
19:07:57  <FLHerne> Times distance
19:08:02  <FLHerne> No
19:08:30  <FLHerne> Although if there's too much cargo at a station, or too long between trains, some can just outright vanish
19:08:49  <Beerbelott> Well transferring from trains to buses hurt because for the final leg speed sinks greatly, but I saw buses delivering for a couple kilo while normally it's usually a couple hundreds :D
19:09:25  <Beerbelott> OK thx for that
19:10:18  <FLHerne> The transfer "payments" are entirely estimated - they're just x% of what /would/ be paid if it was delivered right there
19:10:24  <FLHerne> (x is configurable)
19:11:23  <FLHerne> And the final payment is the real income, minus fictitious transfer payments already shown
19:12:01  <FLHerne> So it's negative if the last vehicle was much slower than average, or the cargo followed a very indirect route
19:15:44  <Samu> cargodist likes to do that
19:17:55  *** acklen has joined #openttd
19:21:21  <Beerbelott> Hmm does that mean using buses on endlinks to distribute cargo round town is a bad habit and the station should rather be separated from the bus network in order to maximize profit?

19:35:31  *** andythenorth has quit IRC
19:35:34  *** SpComb has joined #openttd
19:39:37  <nielsm> Beerbelott: the buses are probably still making more than they cost to run, just the transfer calculation misrepresents it

20:17:23  *** Thedarkb-T60 has joined #openttd
20:29:08  <Beerbelott> nielsm: Sure, but comparing a scenario where trains deliver/take cargo from a seperate station from a bus loop to another scenario where trains connect to one of the buses' station, if cargo transfer loses value, one way of another (buses being much slower than trains, ending payment lowered by fictious transfer money I'll never see, etc), wouldn't the "disconnected" scenario be more profitable?
20:30:00  <Beerbelott> At least the generated cargo would not suffer from the "transfer" mechanism. One of the q° being if the generated cargo volume would then be the same or not

20:42:37  *** acklen has quit IRC
20:48:46  <FLHerne> Beerbelott: Yes
20:49:47  <FLHerne> Beerbelott: But, as with everything else, the optimal way to make money (by a huge margin) is with airports in the map corners
20:50:53  <Beerbelott> Ouch, did you just confirm connecting stations actually *lowers* profit?
20:50:59  <FLHerne> Or, failing that, the fastest available train
20:51:07  <FLHerne> There's no remotely financially-optimal game plan that gives road vehicles any consideration at all
20:51:37  <Beerbelott> That I know of
20:52:06  <FLHerne> Yes (if you do have road vehicles, for profit you should have them feed /into/ a higher-speed network, then have no-load orders)
20:52:27  <Beerbelott> But road vehicles allow quick & basic coverage of relatively small town (those for which a single train station won't encompass them)
20:52:45  <Beerbelott> Aha!
20:52:58  <FLHerne> I just disagree that "ouch" really applies, because playing OTTD for financial optimality is no fun anyway
20:53:16  <Beerbelott> Hence, since there won't be loading, that would mean 4 stops for twon growth + a 5th one for train loading
20:53:50  <FLHerne> Something like that, yep
20:53:58  <Beerbelott> FLHerne: Well. I'll leave that to each & everyone appreciation on how to play management transportation games
20:54:04  <FLHerne> (I've done that sort of thing in CityBuilder games)
20:54:21  <Beerbelott> Thx for all that :)
