04:30:32  <sparr> I had hoped that disappearing for the better part of a week would leave me a new game as a present when I returned...  I'll take "Finalising" as a consolation prize :)

15:29:31  <Chris_Booth> hello V453000
15:29:35  <Chris_Booth> i think we need a new game
15:30:29  <Chris_Booth> !archive
15:30:29  <PublicServer> Chris_Booth: http://www.openttdcoop.ORG/wiki/PublicServer:Archive | http://www.openttdcoop.org/wiki/ProZone:Archive | http://www.openttdcoop.org/wiki/MemberZone:Archive
15:32:09  <Chris_Booth> this game has been going on for 17 days
15:32:23  <Chris_Booth> but seems to have some interesting buildingd
15:34:58  *** lomba has joined #openttdcoop
15:36:07  <V453000> yeah
15:36:31  <V453000> the game is for so long because it still could be improved probably :|
15:36:32  <V453000> !date
15:36:32  <PublicServer> V453000: 12 Apr 2293
15:36:35  <V453000> hmmm
15:36:55  <Mark> V453000: did you make a new map yet?
15:36:57  <V453000> dunno havent seen it for 2 days
15:37:09  <V453000> Mark: no, why me? :)
15:37:23  <Mark> well, that explains why we have no new game yet
15:37:23  <KenjiE20> Mark: waiting on update, maps already up
15:37:30  <Mark> k
15:37:39  <V453000> I am not complaining we have no map :)

15:42:26  *** X-BT has joined #openttdcoop
15:45:26  <Chris_Booth> we have loads of map on the wiki
15:45:41  <Chris_Booth> you could just reset one of them if there wasnt a map
15:45:49  <PublicServer> *** Chris Booth has left the game (connection lost)
15:46:14  <planetmaker> reset has the disadvantage that newgrfs don't change
15:46:14  <V453000> :)
15:46:23  <planetmaker> and hello everyone :-)
15:48:14  <V453000> hi pm
15:48:18  <Chris_Booth> that is true planetmaker but if we re-played an old map and didnt tell people
15:48:27  <Chris_Booth> then compair in the wiki after to see the difference
15:48:31  <Mark> heh
15:48:32  <V453000> :D
15:48:45  <Mark> or load an ancient map with the same ancient plan
15:48:56  <Mark> like pile transport or something
15:49:17  <Chris_Booth> yeah just to see what we do differently now
15:49:26  <Chris_Booth> and how much better or worse the outcome is
15:51:05  <Chris_Booth> what would also me funny is if we loaded an old stable or nightly which you couldnt build diagonals under bridges
15:51:12  <Chris_Booth> or was missing some other new features
15:51:35  <planetmaker> Chris_Booth, indeed a nice idea. But then we should kinda pre-determine the plan also (same as in previous game)
15:51:40  <planetmaker> actually I like the idea.
15:52:22  <planetmaker> uh... na, we shouldn't do that. Available nightly binaries only range back two months or so anyway
15:52:36  <Chris_Booth> only issue with map reset it that town names change and inudstry locations change if reset in a newer stable version than created in
15:53:35  <Mark> do they?
15:54:05  <planetmaker> might be, if algorithms changed. And they possibly did.
15:54:14  <V453000> why not just create a new map with random?
15:54:43  <Chris_Booth> no reason why not V453000
15:54:43  <planetmaker> :-) Also an option. You go for it? ;-)
15:55:07  <planetmaker> But that's what usually happens anyway. So... nothing new and exciting in that.
15:55:08  <V453000> I got really messed up config now
15:55:11  <Mark> V453000: because we like trying out new stuff :P
15:55:19  <V453000> :)
15:56:26  <Mark> i think pile transport would be a good one for replaying
15:56:29  <Mark> because it's a classic
15:56:34  <Mark> and ancient :P
15:57:04  <V453000> pile transport?
15:57:12  <Mark> yeah
15:57:14  <Mark> MZG04
15:58:46  <Mark> i'm afraid we'd have to derive the plan from the final save though, as they used to delete the plans back then
15:59:35  <V453000> oh
15:59:55  <V453000> oh so you mean playing some plan again?
15:59:58  <V453000> or just the map?
16:00:04  <Mark> both
16:00:10  <Mark> same map, same plan
16:00:11  <V453000> interesting
16:00:14  <Osai> we need 4way BBH then
16:00:20  <V453000> could be nice to compare :)
16:00:22  <Mark> yeah, 9 of them :P
16:00:40  <Mark> good training though, and doable with TL2 LL_RR
16:01:53  <Osai> TL2 ?
16:01:58  <Osai> isn't TL3
16:02:03  <planetmaker> I like the idea. Pile transport is considered classic indeed.
16:02:13  <planetmaker> Even Rubi knows about that game and uses it as reference ;-)
16:02:20  *** Osai has left #openttdcoop
16:02:29  *** Osai has joined #openttdcoop
16:02:29  *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Osai
16:02:30  <Mark> heh, guess that's enough to make a game a classic
16:02:36  <Osai> ups
16:02:38  <Mark> is there a way to reset in SP?
16:02:47  <Thraxian|Work> was all that tform original, or created during the game?
16:02:53  <planetmaker> Mark, "reset" in console?
16:02:59  <Mark> planetmaker: nope
16:03:02  <planetmaker> or something like that :-)
16:03:05  <Osai> Thraxian|Work: it is not original
16:03:06  <Mark> Thraxian|Work: TF'd
16:03:06  <Osai> :P
16:03:07  <planetmaker> restart maybe
16:03:08  <Thraxian|Work> reset_company
16:03:11  <Osai> its the old style
16:03:30  <planetmaker> I never used it tbh
16:03:45  <Thraxian|Work> http://wiki.openttd.org/Reset_Company
16:03:56  <Thraxian|Work> doesn't reset industry production, tform, etc.
16:03:59  <V453000> why not just get the seed of the map?
16:04:03  <planetmaker> Thraxian|Work, not company. Game. Whole map
16:04:07  <Mark> Thraxian|Work: indeed :P
16:04:09  <Thraxian|Work> ah
16:04:13  <Mark> V453000: that might work
16:04:20  <Mark> restart seems to load current settings
16:04:21  <Thraxian|Work> getseed
16:04:36  <V453000> it wouldnt probably  keep the industries at the same place but the map will be the same as in the beginning
16:04:44  <planetmaker> ah... that might work. But probably only with the same version as the original.
16:04:57  <planetmaker> Worth a try at least.
16:04:58  <Mark> i'll see how close it gets
16:05:02  <V453000> thats a question
16:05:05  <V453000> :)
16:05:11  <Mark> with the same settings it will probably at least look like it
16:06:36  <Osai> do we want to use the same plan?
16:07:03  <Mark> heh, the map looks nothing like it
16:07:07  <Thraxian|Work> I got "2293639553", and the new map doesn't seem close at all
16:07:17  <Thraxian|Work> even accounting for lakes being filled in
16:07:22  <Osai> erm
16:07:30  <V453000> I got some else number :D
16:07:31  <Mark> it's a plateau at the highest level with craters in it :D
16:07:31  <Osai> this map is from a time where seeds didn't exist
16:07:47  <Osai> iirc
16:08:23  <V453000> anyways ... guys if you look at the save most of the land has beed terraformed to death :D how could we say it looks the same or not?
16:08:46  <Thraxian|Work> water placement, mostly
16:08:56  <Thraxian|Work> if lakes are still there, or look like they may have been
16:09:41  <Mark> now it actually looks like the original generator is bugged
16:10:11  <Thraxian|Work> makes me wonder: should we include the original .sav file on the wiki for our current games?
16:10:17  <Thraxian|Work> that way, years from now, we have it :)
16:10:33  <Thraxian|Work> store both initial and final states in the archive
16:10:52  <V453000> not a bad idea
16:12:07  *** Phazorx has joined #openttdcoop
16:12:08  <Thraxian|Work> so, by "copying" this plan, we're talking about using the same trains, same primary placement, and roughly the same ML layout?
16:12:26  <Mark> yes
16:12:27  <Thraxian|Work> er...same main station placement, not primary :)
16:12:34  <Mark> uh yes, that's what i read :P
16:12:55  <Phazorx> mark btw, you mentioned that "we at least learned something from this map" for these who havent had a chance to look at at would you care to explain?
16:13:10  <Mark> though it seems creating a proper map with the original terra generator is bugged now
16:13:35  <Mark> Phazorx: well, some more experience in creating large SRNW stations
16:13:45  <Mark> with both feeder loops and dummies
16:14:04  <Phazorx> did that work our as planned?
16:14:09  <Phazorx> *out
16:14:36  <Mark> kind of, the map came out a bit unbalanced though
16:14:53  <Mark> and there were not as many primary pickups as i would have liked
16:15:35  <Phazorx> err... financing disabled?
16:15:37  <V453000> I agree :o
16:15:47  <Phazorx> or notenough rom?
16:16:04  <Mark> i assume you mean prospecting
16:16:13  <Phazorx> yeah
16:16:15  <Mark> guess people just didn't feel like making more stations :)
16:16:24  <Mark> instead focused on a few massive ones
16:16:48  <Thraxian|Work> personally, I'm not (yet) a big fan of large-scale SRNW
16:16:51  <Mark> could anyone try to create a map with the original generator and see if it looks anything like it used to?
16:17:07  <Osai> I tried it
16:17:10  <Osai> with the same seed
16:17:14  <Thraxian|Work> OpenTTD 0.4.5?
16:17:19  <Mark> yeah, it's nasty with any seed :P
16:17:58  <Mark> guess we could create the map with an old version and just load it
16:18:05  <Osai> its something below r3400
16:18:26  <Phazorx> i ony get "massive stations" design as an idea of building in explandable way
16:18:29  <Thraxian|Work> 0.4.5 was r2361 through r3487
16:18:42  <Phazorx> so you add more platforms/hookups as it grows
16:18:57  <Phazorx> rather than design ahuge ass station from start and look at it emptiness for most of game
16:19:03  <Osai> yea
16:19:07  <Thraxian|Work> I don't think revisions were numbered prior to that - or at least they're not documented on the wiki
16:19:16  <Osai> Phazorx: I always loved the patching of networks
16:19:28  <Osai> building bypasses and so on
16:19:30  <Mark> anyone got a very old version hanging around?
16:19:35  <Mark> or the source
16:19:35  <Osai> bottlenecks, jams and what not
16:19:42  <Osai> thats the joy :D
16:19:43  <Phazorx> Osai: i was leaning more towards planing
16:19:59  <Osai> well, starting on a lower scale helps
16:20:00  <Phazorx> and expanding acrodingly rather than dealing with gridlocks and shortsights
16:20:24  <KenjiE20> Osai: same as me and Sawyer then :)
16:21:04  <Osai> I am really looking forward how the factory will work this time
16:21:11  <Osai> there were four entrances
16:21:18  <Osai> N,S,E,W
16:21:48  <Phazorx> i was playing with grass-on-unsed patch btw, looking o expand it to a point when unused tracks for some time start to decay
16:22:27  <Mark> that's nice, automatic network cleaning :P
16:22:27  <Phazorx> which would add a nice touch to a point of expandability vs megamainlines from start
16:22:32  <Phazorx> Mark: sort of
16:23:07  <Thraxian|Work> I downloaded 0.4.5, and theres no place to specify a seed.  Command line option?
16:23:19  <Osai> nope
16:23:21  <Osai> config :D
16:23:26  <Osai> openttd.cfg
16:26:01  <Thraxian|Work> tried that too.  but even creating two maps back to back came up with different landscapes
16:26:34  <Osai> mist :/
16:26:55  <Osai> that was german... I meant crap
16:28:40  <Mark> Thraxian|Work: i just generated a map using the same settings, guess it's close enough
16:28:55  <Mark> industry placement changes throughout the game anyway
16:29:24  <Thraxian|Work> as long as the hills and lakes are close :)
16:29:38  <Thraxian|Work> and I'm not referring to the manmade ones....
16:29:41  <Mark> not at all, they're completely different
16:29:51  <Mark> but it looks the same
16:30:26  <Mark> everyone should play 0.4.5 sometimes to appreciate the huge progress :)

16:39:52  <planetmaker> path signals are now a year old or so
16:40:03  <V453000> really?
16:40:08  <planetmaker> they were last winter's commit spree. As was bananas and NoAI ;-)
16:40:15  <Thraxian|Work> PBS was r13926
16:40:16  <V453000> O_o
16:40:29  <planetmaker> or do I err... ?
16:40:52  <Thraxian|Work> which is around 0.6.3
16:41:35  <Thraxian|Work> correction... 0.7.0
16:41:42  <planetmaker> ^
16:41:46  <planetmaker> which is April 1st last year
16:41:49  <Thraxian|Work> 2009-02-16 was the release, actually
16:41:56  <Thraxian|Work> made it into beta1
16:42:00  <Thraxian|Work> http://wiki.openttd.org/OpenTTD_0.7.0
16:42:00  <planetmaker> yeah
16:42:18  <planetmaker>  	changeset | files
16:42:19  <planetmaker> 17 months ago	rubidium	(svn r13932) -Add [YAPP]: PBS signals added to the map array. The signals are drawn using the old Patch-like PBS sprites. (michi_cc)
16:43:08  <V453000> in 0.6.3 PBS was not I think, I started playing with 0.6.3.
16:43:15  <V453000> and I had PBSs only in nightly
16:43:39  <V453000> y
16:43:46  <planetmaker> It's a 0.7 feature, definitely
16:43:48  <V453000> me must learn to read I see :D
16:44:36  <Thraxian|Work> question: you know how trains that are too long for the station take a longer time to load/unload?
16:45:18  <Thraxian|Work> what do you think about a code change that would only apply the load/unload penalty if the cars that can't reach the platform contain cargo?
16:45:31  <V453000> oh
16:45:35  <V453000> interesting idea
16:45:36  <Thraxian|Work> ie.  if an engine or "caboose" style car (with no cargo in it) is hanging off, then no penalty
16:45:37  <V453000> but why :D
16:45:45  <Thraxian|Work> quicker throughput in the station
16:45:57  <Thraxian|Work> currently, the signal before the platform doesn't clear until the train completely leaves the platform
16:46:01  <V453000> yeah but mostly people build as long stations as needed
16:46:25  <Thraxian|Work> with a "placeholder" car (like a caboose), as soon as that train starts moving, the signal clears, and a train can approach the soon-to-be-empty platform
16:46:38  <Thraxian|Work> especially useful for longer approaches
16:46:47  <planetmaker> Thraxian|Work, while it certainly is more realistic, I guess the pain to get there is not worth the work
16:46:51  <Thraxian|Work> because the platform is empty while the next train navigates through the approach
16:47:04  <planetmaker> what would be the gain anyway?
16:47:14  <Thraxian|Work> Thraxian|Work: quicker throughput in the station
16:47:34  <V453000> why increasing throughput via coding changes?
16:47:34  <planetmaker> you either wait till full load or you wait a certain time. The result would be the same anyway
16:47:48  <Thraxian|Work> you've missed the point
16:48:19  <planetmaker> obviously. Where is it?
16:48:27  <Thraxian|Work> http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/images/a/a5/Roro_dedicated_plats.PNG
16:48:35  *** heffer has quit IRC
16:48:44  <Thraxian|Work> bad image, but assume it's properly pre-exit signalled (or PBS'd)
16:48:45  <planetmaker> uhm, yes?
16:48:57  <Thraxian|Work> a train can't even approach the platform until the previous train completely clears it
16:49:05  <planetmaker> yes?
16:49:34  <Thraxian|Work> now assume the train "hangs over" a bit, and a signal is placed on the tile before the station and an exit signal immediately before that
16:49:48  <Thraxian|Work> as soon as the "hangover" car moves, the exit signal turns green, and a train approaches the station platform
16:49:56  <Thraxian|Work> without waiting for the previous train to completely get off the platform
16:50:20  <Thraxian|Work> the problem now is that the hangover car causes a significant penalty when loading/unloading the entire train
16:50:30  <Thraxian|Work> even though that car isn't even involved in that process
16:50:56  <planetmaker> what's the gain, if then a train waits at the exit signal due to the fact that the station still isn't cleared?
16:51:07  <planetmaker> might be very probable in the scenario you describe
16:51:22  <Thraxian|Work> by the time the new train gets to the exit signal, the previous train has already cleared the platform
16:51:30  <planetmaker> that's a bold assumption
16:52:01  <Thraxian|Work> not really - assuming adequate exit space is present, and the approach is longer than the station
16:52:07  <Thraxian|Work> (which is true in most cases)
16:52:30  <planetmaker> and the trains are not too long
16:52:37  <Thraxian|Work> in the image I linked to earlier, only the first (southern) platform has a shorter approach than the platform
16:52:41  <planetmaker> e.g. it will fail much more likely for longer trains
16:52:58  <Thraxian|Work> platforms are TL5, while the approaches are TL5-TL11
16:53:06  <planetmaker> in any case: V453000 has a very valid point
16:53:30  <Thraxian|Work> the coding change is required to remove the penalty - otherwise there really is no point in doing something like that
16:53:48  <Thraxian|Work> that, or we could modify the penalty setting to apply 0 penalty to longer trains
16:53:59  <Thraxian|Work> then we could dock a TL50 in a TL1 station, and it would still work
16:54:00  <planetmaker> well. you'll need to take care to load slower / not at all wagons off the station
16:54:05  <planetmaker> which needs separate checks.
16:54:14  <planetmaker> which makes the whole thing slower.
16:54:39  <planetmaker> Train length is cached. The cargo carried by a wagon at position not and needs separate access. For each
16:54:48  <planetmaker> Checking for each wagon whether it influences loading speed
16:55:20  <Thraxian|Work> I don't see it as being a slower check, to be honest
16:55:30  <Thraxian|Work> the code knows how long the platform is, and how long the train is
16:55:35  <planetmaker> of course: you need to check _each_ wagon which is longer
16:55:45  <Thraxian|Work> I assume it knows which way the train entered (where the head of the train is)
16:55:46  <planetmaker> Now you just check: longer ? slow loading : fast loading
16:55:55  <Thraxian|Work> then, it can check the last N cars of the train to see their capactiy
16:55:57  <Chris_Booth> !archive
16:55:57  <PublicServer> Chris_Booth: http://www.openttdcoop.ORG/wiki/PublicServer:Archive | http://www.openttdcoop.org/wiki/ProZone:Archive | http://www.openttdcoop.org/wiki/MemberZone:Archive
16:56:01  <Thraxian|Work> if zero, no penalty.  if not, penalty
16:56:15  <planetmaker> and no, it doesn't need to know a direction for those checks. Just the length is checked
16:56:37  <Thraxian|Work> actually - direction wouldn't matter
16:56:53  <planetmaker> So you need N+1 checks.
16:57:00  <Thraxian|Work> it knows the difference in length between the platform and the train.  it knows how the train is put together.
16:57:02  <planetmaker> while you now need 1
16:57:11  <Thraxian|Work> so if there's a difference of 2, check the last 2 cars.  they're the ones not on the platform
16:57:26  <planetmaker> cars are attached via wagon->next
16:57:38  <Thraxian|Work> it's only single-linked?
16:57:44  <planetmaker> not sure
16:59:15  <PublicServer> *** Chris Booth has left the game (connection lost)
17:00:05  <Thraxian|Work> doubly linked.  GetNextVehicle and GetPrevVehicle are both supported
17:00:30  <planetmaker> question is: GetLastVehicle present?
17:00:34  <planetmaker> If not: it's mute ;-)
17:01:01  <Thraxian|Work> no, but then neither is GetTrainLength
17:01:13  <Thraxian|Work> so to compute train length, it has to iterate through all vehicles
17:01:19  <planetmaker> it's a newgrf var afaik
17:03:38  <Thraxian|Work> train inherits from vehicle_base, and there is a cached_total_length there
17:03:48  <planetmaker> yes, trainlength is cached.
17:04:10  <Chris_Booth> so what was the verdict on replaying pile?
17:04:11  <planetmaker> in struct TrainCache
17:04:24  <planetmaker> defined in src/train.h
17:04:43  <Thraxian|Work> http://svn.openttd.org/branches/0.7/src/train.h
17:04:45  <Thraxian|Work> it's not in there
17:04:53  <planetmaker> I use trunk
17:05:09  <planetmaker> 0.7 branch is about a year old
17:05:21  <Thraxian|Work> ah
17:05:31  <Thraxian|Work> My google search for openttd svn put me in a branch
17:05:39  <planetmaker> src/train.h:70
17:05:46  <Thraxian|Work> that's almost a direct copy from the train part of vehicle_base
17:05:48  <planetmaker> in r18866
17:05:51  <Thraxian|Work> so, yeah
17:06:39  <planetmaker> and: it only caches the front vehicle ID
17:07:40  <planetmaker> thus you can go back and forth through a train, but you always start at the first engine.
17:07:52  <Thraxian|Work> true
17:08:48  <Thraxian|Work> if you're concerned about CPU usage, it wouldn't be hard to cache the position of the last car that can hold cargo
17:08:53  <Thraxian|Work> then it's an O(1) lookup
17:09:09  <planetmaker> that doesn't invalidate any of my arguments

17:09:15  *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Thraxian|Work
17:09:21  <Thraxian|Work> I hate it when IRC takes focus like that :(
17:09:51  <planetmaker> you must consider the general case. Not your desired case of a void wagon longer than the station
17:10:26  <Thraxian|Work> there's always a check to see if the train is longer the platform.  This would be one additional IF check if the train is longer.
17:11:35  <planetmaker> still A LOT for virtually no gain.
17:12:02  <Thraxian|Work> actually, just replace the train's length with the position of the last cargo car.  no additional processing required
17:12:22  <Thraxian|Work> and "virtually no gain" is your opinion.  I see some decent potential here.
17:12:26  <planetmaker> the train length is not subject to being replaced. It's a needed var.
17:12:42  <Thraxian|Work> it's not replaced.  only a different variable is used in the calculation
17:12:48  <Thraxian|Work> er...comparison
17:13:19  <Thraxian|Work> instead of "if train.length > platform.length", use "if train.lastcargocarposition > platform.length"
17:13:32  <Thraxian|Work> or whatever the syntax would be
17:13:37  *** V453000 has quit IRC
17:13:46  <planetmaker> Then do it properly and make it such that the engine is also off limits of the station. No reason not to.
17:13:54  <planetmaker> And then you opened the pandora's box
17:13:59  <Thraxian|Work> what?
17:14:23  <planetmaker> why should the engine occupy platform space (if it has no cargo capacity)?
17:14:36  *** pugi has joined #openttdcoop
17:14:38  <Thraxian|Work> because trains stop at the platform, not past it.
17:14:39  <Chris_Booth> so driver can get in / out of the engine
17:14:53  <planetmaker> do they? They don't here.
17:15:04  *** Bluelight has joined #openttdcoop
17:15:08  <planetmaker> and drivers don't need a platform for engine access.
17:15:31  <planetmaker> the red signal usually is a bit past the platform.
17:15:35  <Thraxian|Work> planetmaker: And then you opened the pandora's box <- wasn't me that did it  :0
17:16:02  <planetmaker> well. I don't need any change there :-)
17:16:13  <planetmaker> As I really don't see any gain :-)
17:16:51  <planetmaker> this small speed gain one might get with a special track construction no one except a cooper would use... nah.
17:18:31  <Thraxian|Work> personally, if I'm sitting at a stop sign behind someone, and they go, I don't wait for them to clear the intersection before I move up to the stop sign.  I move when they do.
17:18:52  <Thraxian|Work> I'm simply using the same logic for trains on a platform.
17:20:19  <Chris_Booth> Thraxian|Work: what to say that train doesnt stop befor it clears the next signal?
17:20:33  <Chris_Booth> trains dont have stop lights
17:20:39  <Chris_Booth> so the train will just crash
17:20:42  <Chris_Booth> not like in cars
17:21:22  <Thraxian|Work> CB: huh?
17:21:56  *** jondisti has joined #openttdcoop
17:22:10  <Thraxian|Work> worst case, the train leaving the platform is slower.  so the next train is temporarily stopped or slowed just before the platform.  but at least it's already there.  If it can't go immediately to the platform, then there's not enough exit space from the station
17:23:14  <Chris_Booth> or a train is blocking the exit
17:23:41  <Thraxian|Work> then that's poor station exit design
17:24:02  <Chris_Booth> no it isnt quite often on SL stations train will block exits
17:24:42  <Thraxian|Work> yes it is.  it's called "not enough exit space from the station"
17:25:37  <Chris_Booth> no if you have a busy station and you merge lines after 1 TL but there is still a red upahead which is blocking the track
17:26:00  <Thraxian|Work> either a train is on the platform, or it is completely off the platform waiting to merge to the sideline.
17:26:14  <Chris_Booth> its still on the platform
17:26:18  <Thraxian|Work> if you have a train that is halfway on the platform, then there is not enough exit space
17:26:25  <Thraxian|Work> if it's still on the platform, then the next train isn't approaching yet.
17:26:36  <Thraxian|Work> because as soon as that train starts to move, the next train starts to approach
17:26:51  <Thraxian|Work> and if the train on the platform starts to move, there had better be enough exit space for it to clear the platform
17:26:52  <Chris_Booth> i dissagree with that
17:27:01  <Thraxian|Work> fine, we can agree to disagree.
17:27:13  <Chris_Booth> unless you implement a comletely signal less system
17:27:27  <Chris_Booth> like with real highspeed lines
17:27:37  <Chris_Booth> which still have real signals at stations
17:27:58  <Thraxian|Work> and they also have inter-train communication, which openttd doesn't
17:28:03  <Chris_Booth> you would gain anything from having a train wait 2 or 3 seconds for a clear platform
17:28:39  <Chris_Booth> and speed limits on the line

18:58:22  <^Spike^> does it matter? :)
18:59:41  <puny> hi everyone - what is the approx bandwidth usage in MB per hour for playing openttd on the servers?
19:00:02  <planetmaker> 2kbit.
19:00:12  <Bluelight> lol
19:00:16  <planetmaker> @calc 2*60 / 8
19:00:16  <Webster> planetmaker: 15
19:00:39  <planetmaker> 15 kilobyte per hour. Plus the map download(s).
19:00:45  <planetmaker> That's more of an issue then ;-)
19:01:13  <puny> thanks - thats good news
19:01:26  <^Spike^> hmm.. i don't know if i can stay under my download limit with that pm..
19:01:32  <^Spike^> i guess barely...
19:01:44  * ^Spike^ checks.. seeing already over 100gb this month...
19:01:46  <Bluelight> Hmm.. I don't have a limit..
19:01:50  <^Spike^> oh wait... FUP :)
19:02:55  <Bluelight> I used to have 20Mbit/s down.. But I wanted to save money.. But it's not so slow..
19:03:30  <Thraxian|Work> are you concerned about exceeding your download QUOTA or your download SPEED?
19:04:06  <puny> QUOTA - only have 500MB per month
19:04:13  <Thraxian|Work> ooh...ouch
19:04:28  <puny> i know
19:04:58  <Bluelight> That wasnt much.. :(
19:05:19  <puny> I guess lag isnt an issue - its a 3g connection - but its not like ttd is a fps?
19:05:37  <Bluelight> I download more then that every day I think.. :p
19:06:08  <Thraxian|Work> if you count all the youtube videos and music I stream each day, me too.
19:06:09  <Bluelight> I have 3G to.. But I use it rarely.. No limit..
19:06:27  <planetmaker> 500MB is... not much indeed. Though I do well with about 5GB a month
19:06:30  <puny> lol - Im part of a WUG which I use for downloads, so I only use 3G for emails, slashdot and wikipedia
19:06:48  <^Spike^> hmm..
19:07:06  <^Spike^> 5gb a month? :)
19:07:14  <planetmaker> anyway, OpenTTD should not break the limit of 500MB a month either
19:07:15  * ^Spike^ guess tv shows don't work nicely for monthly usage..
19:07:15  <puny> nope 500MB per month
19:07:20  <planetmaker> yes, spike :-)
19:07:24  <^Spike^> i was talking about pm :)
19:07:32  <^Spike^> i guess i end up with 150 maybe 175gb this month..
19:07:35  <puny> o
19:07:35  <^Spike^> just from downloads..
19:07:38  <puny> my basd
19:07:40  <^Spike^> not including what i do else.. :)
19:07:40  <puny> bad*
19:09:31  <^Spike^> it's just that my current router doesn't track my usage anymore.. :)
19:09:47  <^Spike^> weeks of 50-100gbw as nothing.. :)
19:09:51  <^Spike^> gb was*
19:10:02  <Bluelight> I still wonder how I can leave the OpenTTD servers without getting the connection lost line..
19:10:17  <puny> ur making me jealous - what country are u from?
19:10:58  <^Spike^> the netherlands?
19:11:04  <planetmaker> spike: I don't download warez ;-)
19:11:13  <^Spike^> me neither.. :)
19:11:16  <^Spike^> just alot of tv shows.. :)
19:11:19  <planetmaker> nor do I extensively use video services. Nor use torrents
19:11:21  <^Spike^> and those are legal to download here.. ;)
19:11:30  <^Spike^> i'm not allowed to upload..
19:11:38  <puny> Im from south africa - you can probably understand afrikaans?
19:11:42  <^Spike^> but i may download films/music.. :)
19:11:45  <planetmaker> pro'ly all about smoking weed and making the best of it :-P
19:11:50  <^Spike^> puny yes i do roughly.. :)
19:12:01  <^Spike^> nah.. :)
19:12:04  <^Spike^> pm i'm clean.. :)
19:12:07  <Bluelight> Norway here..
19:12:10  <^Spike^> can't say that of most.. :)

20:55:12  <PublicServer> *** Roysvork joined the game
20:55:20  <Thraxian|Work> same plan, same(-ish) map, same trains
20:55:33  <Thraxian|Work> but with new building style, and (hopefully) significantly less tform
20:55:34  <PublicServer> <Phoenix_the_II> oh so this map has been played before? :o

20:56:26  <PublicServer> <Roysvork> what does tl2lev4 mean? Is that 4 cars plus the two maglev units?
20:56:52  <KenjiE20> lev4 is 4th Maglev train
20:57:07  <PublicServer> <Roysvork> ahhhh ok
20:57:23  <Thraxian|Work> TL2 means 4 cars.  lev4 is a dual-engine, so that leaves room for 2 cargo cars
20:57:47  <Mark> which means very low effeciency but lots of fun
20:57:47  <PublicServer> <Roysvork> ahhh yes of course

21:04:15  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> hehe - and town SW is not reachable
21:04:26  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> (on the plan) - so the train is currently looping

21:04:59  <Chris_Booth> maybe people should check pile transport in MZ games

21:50:02  <PublicServer> <Mark> that would be a good one
21:50:39  <Thraxian|Work> is @tunnels the correct formula?
21:50:50  <PublicServer> <Mark> i think they both are now
21:51:02  <Thraxian|Work> what if I want to make a tunnel of length 9?
21:51:07  <Thraxian|Work> is it 2 or 3 tunnels?

21:55:06  <PublicServer> *** Mark has joined company #1
21:55:14  <PublicServer> <Mark> that's 9
21:55:17  <PublicServer> *** Mark has joined spectators
21:55:43  <Thraxian|Work> then 2 is definitely not enough for TL9
21:56:02  <PublicServer> *** Mark has joined company #1
21:57:05  <PublicServer> <Mark> yeah i guess that should be counted as 11 because a train on a signal tile also blocks it

22:00:23  <PublicServer> <VictorOfSweden> what's happening near the CL demo?
22:00:27  <V453000> it could shorten it by one tile
22:00:37  <PublicServer> <VictorOfSweden> the standard rail creation
22:00:51  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> can you check by the plan?
22:00:58  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> the crossed tiles are supposed to be TL3 trains
22:01:03  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> are they too close together?
22:02:00  <V453000> is that for mey?
22:02:18  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> for anyone that knows anything about doubling bridges/tunnels
22:02:29  <V453000> I cant join ingame ;)
22:02:29  <PublicServer> <VictorOfSweden> syncing trains
22:02:40  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> it's never been very clear to me how to count the gap (from bridge ends or signals), and how trains fit...
22:02:46  <V453000> what is going on with bridges? some new ideas ?
22:02:59  <V453000> oh so
22:03:01  <V453000> yeah
22:03:07  <V453000> could try that though
22:03:16  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> I'm curious what the maximum bridge/tunnel length is for 2 bridges on a TL3
22:03:35  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> the formula says 8-9 can be done with 2 bridges
22:03:39  <V453000> maybe also an issue would be how exactly is the flow compressed/packed
22:03:45  <V453000> 9 cant
22:03:45  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> is that counting 0, 1, or both tiles with signals on them?
22:03:47  <V453000> I am sure
22:03:55  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> assume maximum compression, always
22:04:11  <Mark> min. gap is 3
22:04:39  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> min gap between trains is 3?
22:04:48  <Mark> yes
22:05:01  <V453000> meant with the shortest bridge probably
22:05:44  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> and how do you count the gap?  do you include 0, 1, or both signalled tiles?
22:06:20  <V453000> thats a bold question
22:06:34  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> assuming that the ML is 2-gapped, that means you count all the unsignalled tiles and 1 of the signalled tiles
22:06:43  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> is that counting correct?
22:07:20  <planetmaker> iirc yes
22:07:27  <PublicServer> <Mark> the example you have now shows why you shouldn't use pre-signalling
22:07:30  <V453000> lets test
22:07:35  <planetmaker> that's how you count signal distance. the gap is one less
22:08:08  <PublicServer> <Thraxian> so I've effectively created a 10 gap, then.  counting the space between pre-signal and last signal +1
22:09:05  <planetmaker> might be :-) (I'm not ingame)

22:44:49  <Thraxian|Work> I'm working on a wiki article for signal gaps, so I can refer to it the next time I get confused (tomorrow!)
22:44:56  <KenjiE20> @pilesave
22:44:56  <Webster> http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/MemberZone:Archive#gameid_04
22:45:00  <KenjiE20> there
22:45:01  <planetmaker> Thraxian|Work: doesn't make sense to me.
22:45:02  <Chris_Booth> gap is from the last use signal
22:45:08  <Chris_Booth> to first used signal
22:45:14  <Thraxian|Work> including the two signalled tiles?
22:45:14  <planetmaker> a gap is a gap _between_ something
22:45:32  <planetmaker> no gap means adjacent signals, gap 1 = signal distance two
22:45:33  <Chris_Booth> so the length that a train travels without passing a signal
22:45:34  <PublicServer> <Razaekel> there's way too many damn hills on this map
22:45:36  <PublicServer> <Razaekel> >.<
22:45:42  <Thraxian|Work> that's my main question, and the source of all my confusion.  when you count the gap, do you count 0, 1, or both of the signalled tiles?
22:45:46  <planetmaker> all other definitions are at least counter-intuitive
22:45:59  <planetmaker> Thraxian|Work: I would count no signal
22:46:03  <planetmaker> for a _gap_
22:46:12  <planetmaker> The signal _distance_ includes ONE signal
22:46:19  <Chris_Booth> Thraxian|Work: s t t t s

22:46:32  <planetmaker> gap 3, signal distance 4
22:46:33  <Chris_Booth> and t is a none signal tile
22:46:47  <Chris_Booth> thanks planetmaker
22:46:55  <planetmaker> thanks you :-)
22:47:09  <Thraxian|Work> I'm looking at the article I just linked, and it says that SD means one signal every N tiles (we use SD=2), and that a SD of two gives a gap of 3
22:47:23  <planetmaker> uh?
22:47:25  <Thraxian|Work> meaning it is counting both signalled tiles
22:47:32  <planetmaker> sounds wrong to me
22:47:37  <Thraxian|Work> http://wiki.openttd.org/Railway_Designs <- without the comma (sorry)
22:47:45  <KenjiE20> SD = Gap+1
22:47:46  <Chris_Booth> no Thraxian|Work gives a traveling gap of 3
22:47:56  <Thraxian|Work> it does have a signficant impact on the formulas and how to count a gap properly
22:48:04  <Osai> weird, I can't find that stupid lzo2
22:48:20  <Chris_Booth> we use a gap of 1
22:48:20  <Thraxian|Work> are they referring to gap as a "train gap" and not a "signal gap"?
22:48:31  <Chris_Booth> which has a travel distance of 2 tiles
22:48:36  <planetmaker> Thraxian|Work: the article says that _if you remove a signal_ you have a minimum gap of 3
22:48:46  <Thraxian|Work> An SD of two gives a minimum gap of 3, and is the optimal practical solution.
22:48:52  <Thraxian|Work> ^ directly from the wiki article
22:49:00  <KenjiE20> Thraxian|Work: @tunnels and !tunnels are not sacrosanct anyway, merely guidees
22:49:08  <Chris_Booth> we use a SD of 1 thoguh
22:49:16  <Thraxian|Work> is that the gap between trains they are referring to?
22:49:19  <PublicServer> *** persil joined the game
22:49:51  <planetmaker> Thraxian|Work: the context reads to me, though, that the author only speaks of a gap, if a signal is missing :-)
22:49:55  <Thraxian|Work> nvm: Figure1 indicates they are talking about a train gap
22:50:12  <Thraxian|Work> so if the traingap is signalgap +2, then we do ignore signalled tiles.
22:50:20  <planetmaker> ah, good point
22:50:25  <Thraxian|Work> so we use a signal gap of 1 (meaning only 1 unsignalled tile between two signalled ones)
22:50:33  <planetmaker> yup
22:50:45  <planetmaker> so we should always make the distinction between signal gap and train gap
22:50:47  <Chris_Booth> thats what the game engine say for signal gap

22:51:07  <planetmaker> and now good night :-)
22:51:12  <Razaekel> i always considered it to be 2
22:51:17  <Razaekel> since that's what the game says :-/
22:51:28  <Mark> looking at the context i also think we use 2
22:51:39  <Razaekel> ahh, the word of god
22:51:43  <Razaekel> discussion over!

23:00:19  <Thraxian|Work> hehe - should be Pile Jr
23:01:21  <Mark> Pile 2010?
23:01:59  <Thraxian|Work> wiki article created: http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/Signal_gap
23:03:41  <Osai> nice
23:03:53  <Osai> we could use an interwiki link
23:04:02  <Osai> I'll do that tomorrow
23:04:20  <Thraxian|Work> I'm still not sold on the formula.  It just doesn't seem to fit for gap 9, TL3.
23:04:27  <Thraxian|Work> what do you mean an interwiki link/
23:04:33  <Thraxian|Work> I have one on Signal Density
23:05:13  <V453000> hi Osai :)
23:06:21  <Osai> Thraxian|Work: http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/Help:Interwiki_linking
23:06:44  <Thraxian|Work> oh, nice
23:06:52  <Osai> but I don't know the prefix right now
23:06:53  <Osai> :/
23:08:03  <Osai> Thraxian|Work: imho the signal gap is a bit different
23:08:13  <Thraxian|Work> the prefix is whatever you want it to be
23:08:22  <Osai> but thats my personal experience with testing synchronized joiners
23:08:34  <Thraxian|Work> so you could use openttd as the prefix
23:08:37  <Osai> TL + ( signal gap *2 )
23:08:42  <Thraxian|Work> that would make openttd:Railway_Designs link to http://wiki.openttd.org/Railway_Designs
23:09:35  <Osai> yes
23:09:37  <Thraxian|Work> Osai: what does that formula equate to?
23:09:44  <Osai> wait
23:09:48  <Osai> its something different
23:10:18  <V453000> Osai: I found one little bad thingy on the hybrid sml ... if I am using it for normal game with SML, all cargo types, same trains, same TL, their Weight becomes a huge issue - each wagon type weighs different and also the cargos count somehow else on weight ... well the result is that the Hybrids have to be used with the same accelerating distance ...
23:10:35  <V453000> it still works and pretty well but the usability is quite reduced
23:10:51  <Osai> but thats a problem of pre-accelerated joins, isn't it?
23:10:57  <V453000> yes
23:11:03  <KenjiE20> Thraxian|Work: tweaked a couple things on there
23:11:06  <V453000> but these are included in the hybrid
23:11:09  *** Phoenix_the_II has quit IRC
23:11:35  <Thraxian|Work> KenjiE20: in the link you sent me?
23:11:44  <KenjiE20> in the link you posted
23:12:06  <Osai> V453000: I don't see a solution for this issue right now :/
23:12:15  <V453000> it is quite simple
23:12:34  *** persil has quit IRC
23:12:39  <Thraxian|Work> nice, thanks KenjiE20
23:13:00  <Thraxian|Work> I still want to examine that formula more closely.  I think once screenshots are added, it will help
23:13:01  <V453000> Osai: Simply there is none. The concept can be used only with the same weights OR for example with one cargo SRNW
23:13:19  <Thraxian|Work> V453000: or infinite hp :)
23:13:26  <V453000> :D
23:13:27  <V453000> yeah
23:13:36  <Thraxian|Work> instacelleration
23:13:38  <V453000> but then we would not need accelerated priorities
23:13:45  <Osai> it also depends on the maxspeed
23:13:51  <Thraxian|Work> or however you spell it...instacceleration
23:14:02  <V453000> I understand :)
23:14:24  <PublicServer> *** Thraxian has left the game (leaving)
23:14:27  <KenjiE20> Thraxian|Work: added a meta template for ya :P
23:14:59  <V453000> the maxspeed? you mean that the accel trail length is related to the maxspeed, (hp and weight)
23:15:05  <V453000> ?
23:15:13  <Osai> no
23:15:23  <Osai> just if you use different engines
23:15:33  <V453000> oh
23:15:43  <V453000> well it is simple to use the same engines
23:15:52  <V453000> that is no issue
23:15:56  <Thraxian|Work> I still think a 7-gap is maximum for TL3 with 2 lines
23:16:41  <Thraxian|Work> I can add some captions for the screenshots, if you think that will expedite things.  I'm horrible at making example screenshots
23:17:08  <KenjiE20> I don't, I doubt trains will be able to travel close enough for 7 to be useful
23:17:21  <KenjiE20> Thrax; might help
23:17:31  <Osai> V453000: not if your goal is realism D:
23:17:40  <Thraxian|Work> with the way we've been exploring compression and packers, it won't be long :)
23:17:58  <KenjiE20> there's only so close trains can follow
23:17:58  <PublicServer> *** jondisti has left the game (leaving)
23:17:59  <V453000> Osai: we always use the same engines, dont we
23:18:10  <KenjiE20> else they end up pausing at split second reds
23:18:13  <Thraxian|Work> KenjiE20: yup.  signal density +1
23:18:38  <V453000> Osai: the only issue could be if someone played lets say from 1920 ... then the trains would change all the time ... but making the shifters took me about 40 years
23:18:48  <Thraxian|Work> and I'd rather err on the side of caution than cause an accordian effect on the ML
23:19:03  <KenjiE20> Thraxian|Work: if they travelled that close, the realistc accel, would cause them to briefly slow
23:19:05  *** jondisti has quit IRC
23:19:14  <Osai> V453000: yes, we do! :P
23:19:32  <V453000> Osai: only when PAX and cargo is mixed -.-
23:19:38  <V453000> which I dislike :D
23:19:56  <Osai> :P
23:20:48  <V453000> I fear our new shifters are quite unusable after all :D just for really specific games
23:21:19  <KenjiE20> you mean SML ISN'T specific?!
23:21:21  <KenjiE20> :P
23:21:26  <V453000> true
23:21:31  <Osai> but the Fail-Save Joiner is awesome
23:21:34  <V453000> though I use it quite frequently
23:21:38  <Osai> because its super easy
23:22:00  <V453000> yes it is awesome ... but it has a gap error ;)
23:22:17  <Osai> gap error?
23:22:28  <KenjiE20> oh don't start this again
23:22:29  <V453000> as I showed you in the screenshot
23:22:30  <KenjiE20> :)
23:22:35  <V453000> :D
23:22:37  <Osai> well... for SML
23:23:07  <V453000> maybe I did not imagine used for joining actually :)
23:23:16  <Osai> :P
23:23:26  <Osai> I already have some other setups

23:24:22  <KenjiE20> hehe
23:24:29  <V453000> oh
23:24:42  <Osai> maybe we really need another construction for sml
23:24:57  <V453000> that actually could be just SML to the center
23:25:04  <V453000> another ...we will see
23:25:17  <Osai> well... normal networks are not SML
23:25:34  <Osai> I am looking forward to this game
23:25:36  <V453000> of course because they are normal :D :P
