00:00:38  <RichK67_> glx: any thoughts on how i can repaint the update window?
00:00:58  <glx> still compiling :)
00:05:01  <RichK67_> ive tried allsorts - the window is there, and is getting updated, but it doesnt get repainted. if i call UpdateWindows() it throws an error "invalid string id0 in GetString" ... i think it is when it tries to repaint the cash amount in the status bar
00:13:35  <glx> RichK67_: why did you put
00:13:36  <glx> SetWindowDirty(w);
00:13:36  <glx> MarkWholeScreenDirty();
00:13:36  <glx> in window paint?
00:13:58  <RichK67_> guessing
00:17:33  <glx> there's a warning in main_gui.c
00:20:03  <RichK67_> saying what?
00:20:36  <glx> 'ResetLandscape' defined but not used
00:20:47  <glx> line 1087
00:20:53  <RichK67_> ah - ignore it.... doesnt matter (for now)

02:11:33  <black_Nightmare> just wondering but like when you think the electric rails would be in the release? (not just the nightly build)
02:23:20  <Vornicus> When they make a new release.
02:23:56  <glx> I think it's no new feature before 0.5, but I can be wrong
02:27:05  <black_Nightmare> hm ok thanks anyhow
02:27:07  <black_Nightmare> was just curious
02:27:21  <black_Nightmare> say..any of you tried pikka's uksr transets?
02:27:40  <glx> yes, it's not bad
02:27:47  <glx> I like DBSetXL too
02:28:49  <black_Nightmare> heh I like the variety finally :p
02:28:57  <black_Nightmare> sometimes a bit hard to pick which one to use but who cares :))
02:29:08  <black_Nightmare> oh yeah and I have one farm that has two seperate lines to factory because...
02:29:17  <black_Nightmare> the grain cars can move faster than the livestock one does ^_^
02:29:19  <black_Nightmare> kinda more fun
02:29:42  <glx> with recent svn changes you can now know for what an engine is designed
02:29:56  <black_Nightmare> yeah...I already do so quickly
02:30:05  <black_Nightmare> BR HST pulling a short passenger train quickly and...
02:30:21  <black_Nightmare> doubleheaded DR 2-10-0's hauling a heavy grain train
02:30:56  <glx> btw with wagon speed limit, there's no need to put a fast engine in front of a cargo train
02:31:14  <black_Nightmare> like I was saying :p
02:31:37  <black_Nightmare> the 2-10-0's are only 104km/h but they sure can take any loads you want to throw at them
02:33:34  <black_Nightmare> oh and the two tiny engines are amusing
02:34:03  <black_Nightmare> there's either a 0-4-0 saddle steam engine for 56km/h or the class 09 shunter for 40km/h but both are dirty cheap
02:34:23  <black_Nightmare> well I'm going to bed...bye till tomorrow ;)

06:14:57  <Tron> the upper train just starts a little bit earlier
06:18:59  <Tron> <Darkvater> Celestar: donnu why you backported 4304,4309,4310,4312 and 4313 though. It was only code cleanup <-- at least 4312 is a bug fix, i just failed to mark it as such

06:39:31  <Tron> s/at fource/four/
06:39:41  <Tron> never change a sentence halfway through
06:39:49  <Celestar> lol
06:40:07  <Tron> Celestar: did you read my comment about #142 a few lines up?
06:40:23  <Celestar> yes I do
06:40:39  <Celestar> and I agree
06:40:52  <Celestar> but it's annoying.
06:40:52  <Celestar> however, there is no way to fix it with the current system.
06:41:18  <Celestar> so possibly that's for 0.5.0 or even later.
06:41:33  <Celestar> Tron: did you happen to have a chance to look at my new tile types?

06:43:46  <Celestar> Tron: http://www.fvfischer.de/newtiletypes.diff <= I'm introducing specific tile types for road and rail bridges. The idea being that MP_RAILWAY and MP_RAILWAY_BRIDGE have the same internal layout (save for the 4 bits for bridge type) which should result in much less special casing.

07:32:05  <Celestar> KUDr: I've done some more performance testing.
07:32:21  <KUDr> and results?
07:32:38  <Celestar> trains pose no problem in basically any situation, will switch to RVs next, and then ships
07:32:58  <KUDr> ships are slow
07:33:04  <Celestar> and I'm still trying to find the goddamn owner leak.
07:33:15  <KUDr> you know - the A* as it is is not the best algo
07:33:27  <KUDr> aha
07:33:30  <Celestar> KUDr: if you limit the maximum distance to whatever OPF had, how's the performance then?
07:33:44  <KUDr> in the tracks under AI removed bridge?
07:33:48  <Celestar> KUDr: yes.
07:34:00  <Celestar> the AI calls the normal CMD_REMOVE_BRIDGE
07:34:19  <KUDr> I dunno how OPF has it
07:34:30  <Celestar> so I guess 142 cannot be solved for 0.4.8. and 109 will be kinda difficult :S
07:35:29  <Tron> if the pathfinder does the necessary magic GetTileTrackStatus() could just return 0 for rail depots
07:36:07  <Celestar> yeah.
07:36:10  <Celestar> I know.
07:36:15  <peter1138> like for road stops?
07:36:16  <Celestar> I just don't like the "magic" part (=
07:36:30  <Tron> like road stops, road depots, yes
07:36:56  <Tron> the track status simply has no notion for "dead end", that's the problem
07:37:17  * peter1138 nods
07:38:05  <KUDr> hmm
07:38:17  <KUDr> in the YAPF i did it opposite way
07:38:34  <Celestar> KUDr: opposite?
07:38:37  <KUDr> i added tracks into road depots and stops
07:38:48  <Tron> this leads to all kinds of problems
07:38:49  <KUDr> to have it the same as rail
07:38:55  <KUDr> and less magic in YAPF
07:38:59  <Tron> like towns building roads at the back side of road stops
07:39:23  <KUDr> hmm
07:39:55  <Celestar> Tron: KUDr: maybe a proper solution would be some kind of "dead end" marker?
07:39:58  <KUDr> but navigating vehicle somewhere, where are no tracks also causes problems
07:39:58  <TSC> KUDr: I think you've made a tiny mistake in line 74 of yapf_costcache.hpp
07:40:11  <TSC> There's a backtick at the start of the line
07:40:55  <Tron> Celestar: is there a savegame for the ai bridge problem?

07:50:06  <Tron> Celestar: the "huh?" was a reply to your last line
07:51:06  <Celestar> Tron: so that you can have a binary without optimized-out values, but still inline functions.
07:51:36  <Tron> and the use of that would be?
07:51:50  <Celestar> Tron: the "newtiletypes.diff" fixes some minor problems in the bridge branch as well.
07:52:01  <Tron> `-fno-inline'
07:52:01  <Tron>      Don't pay attention to the `inline' keyword.  Normally this option
07:52:01  <Tron>      is used to keep the compiler from expanding any functions inline.
07:52:01  <Tron>      Note that if you are not optimizing, no functions can be expanded
07:52:01  <Tron>      inline.

07:52:27  <Celestar> good point.

08:22:44  <KUDr> yes

08:22:51  <Celestar> Tron: yes.
08:23:09  <Celestar> Tron: but if I stop the train for a couple of days, it works. <= I have no logical explanation for that.

08:24:53  <Tron> *BZZZT*
08:24:54  <Tron> wrong
08:25:04  <Tron> native was perfectly correct
08:25:17  <Celestar> native is mostly perfectly correct.
08:25:20  <KUDr> Tron: Native was only problem
08:25:26  <Celestar> why?
08:25:30  <Celestar> native is CRLF on windows.
08:25:34  <KUDr> VC6 adds many blanks at the end
08:25:34  <Celestar> LF on *nix
08:25:44  <KUDr> and i must correct it manually always
08:25:51  <KUDr> it is anoying
08:26:03  <Celestar> you cannot commit trailing whitespace ...
08:26:10  <KUDr> why?
08:26:18  <Celestar> because it's annoying (=
08:26:21  <KUDr> if it is added by stupid program?
08:26:36  <KUDr> .dsp is NOT edited manually
08:26:39  <Celestar> actually svn commit should block any attempt to do so.
08:26:41  <KUDr> so why Native?
08:26:52  <Celestar> well, for the .dsp I don't really care (=
08:26:57  <KUDr> then it is wrong
08:27:00  <Tron> because it IS edited manually
08:27:05  <KUDr> i can't repair VC6
08:27:20  <Celestar> Tron: when?
08:27:27  <KUDr> so then we must remove the blanks checking
08:27:36  <Tron> adding new files without VS
08:27:40  <Celestar> I don't add anything to VC6 even if I add a file.
08:27:45  <Celestar> someone else has to do it.

08:30:33  <Celestar> (=
08:30:46  <Celestar> this good-for-nothing IDE causes nothing but trouble....
08:30:53  <KUDr> heh good idea for me, but not for many others i guess
08:31:20  <Celestar> which dev uses VC6?
08:31:44  <KUDr> i would just let it != Native so blanks are not checked and no problems occur
08:31:55  <KUDr> many users
08:32:09  <KUDr> no dev i guess
08:32:33  <KUDr> VC6 has also very bad compiler
08:32:43  <Celestar> yeah
08:32:50  <KUDr> many things i cannot do in C++
08:33:08  <KUDr> it is far from the C++ compliance
08:33:20  <Celestar> is there any C++ compiler that adheres to the standard on this planet?
08:33:25  <Celestar> hm ..
08:33:31  <Celestar> f*ck VC6 support.
08:33:42  <KUDr> others are much more close to it
08:33:51  <Celestar> I guess.
08:34:17  <KUDr> I would vote for dropping it
08:34:21  <Celestar> me too.
08:34:24  *** angerman_ [n=angerman@e181124250.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #openttd
08:34:48  <Celestar> I've spent soo much time solving VC6 problems, it's not worth that.
08:34:50  <KUDr> who has only VC6, he can install MinGW
08:34:57  <KUDr> so there is a solution
08:34:57  <Celestar> and MinGW is free.
08:35:02  <KUDr> yes
08:35:23  <Celestar> Tron, peter1138 and Darkvater will have to agree
08:35:32  <KUDr> so we don't close door for such users
08:37:05  <Celestar> also I'd like to have then consent of other people who do lots of development at the present time.
08:37:23  <Celestar> like Belugas_Gone and Rubidium
08:42:02  <Celestar> KUDr: will YAPF be any better/faster/cleaner without VC6 support?
08:42:31  <KUDr> not faster, just simpler a bit
08:42:38  <KUDr> sources
08:42:43  <Celestar> well still ;)
08:43:01  <KUDr> it is now too compicated
08:43:14  <Celestar> and that's because of VC6?
08:43:24  <KUDr> nested templates up to level 6 of recursion
08:43:30  <KUDr> it is not nice
08:43:35  <KUDr> yes
08:43:55  <KUDr> VC6 doesn't know template as template argument
08:44:06  *** angerman [n=angerman@e181120118.adsl.alicedsl.de] has quit [Nick collision from services.]
08:44:09  <KUDr> so it is more complicated
08:44:14  *** angerman_ is now known as angerman
08:44:14  <Celestar> I see.
08:44:37  <KUDr> also many methods must be public
08:44:47  <KUDr> even they should not be
08:44:54  <Vornicus> okay.  I've heard of four-star programming, and I've seen three-star programming, and five-star programming is The Stuff Of Legends... but six-angle-bracket programming?  Cripes and cookiedough.
08:45:02  <KUDr> and many such minor things
08:45:04  <Celestar> Vornicus: er what?
08:45:40  <Celestar> I guess Tron and Darkvater care crap about VC is general.
08:45:40  <KUDr> also const static member initialization in class body is not possible
08:46:02  <KUDr> Darkvater uses VC8
08:46:02  <Celestar> and also peter1138'll prolly give a damn
08:46:10  <KUDr> and it is very good compiler
08:46:22  <Celestar> it's a decent compiler
08:46:32  <Vornicus> often the complexity of C code is measured in how many times you can dereference a pointer before getting to something other than a pointer.
08:46:39  <KUDr> better than GCC in some aspects
08:46:41  <Celestar> Vornicus: trice :)
08:46:48  <Celestar> gcc has some problems here and there.
08:46:52  <Celestar> but every compiler has.
08:46:55  <Celestar> icc has too.
08:46:58  <KUDr> minor problems
08:47:05  <Vornicus> So if you can dereference a pointer three times, it's three-star code.
08:47:07  <Celestar> I use icc sometimes for openttd.
08:47:10  <KUDr> it doesn't hurt
08:47:18  <Celestar> Vornicus: so openttd is 3 star (=
08:47:25  <KUDr> icc == intel?
08:47:46  <Celestar> Vornicus: and all because of me :P
08:47:48  <Celestar> KUDr: yes.
08:47:51  <Vornicus> The complexity of templated C++ code can be measured by the nesting of angle brackets.
08:48:15  <Celestar> I'm not sure complexity is good (=
08:48:26  <Vornicus> I believe that without modifications, the STL is either 2 or 3-angle-bracket code.
08:48:33  <KUDr> Vornicus: yes - but is now worse than it should be in the YAPF because of VC6
08:48:36  <Celestar> static void FindRoadStationSpot(bool truck_station, Station* st, RoadStop*** currstop, RoadStop** prev)
08:49:07  * Vornicus eyes that
08:49:15  <Vornicus> madness
08:49:27  <Celestar> Vornicus: I already did a 5-star pointer once, but meanwhile I've reduced it to something sane.
08:49:40  <Celestar> 5-dimensional array.
08:50:00  <Vornicus> I don't know if arrays count. :P
08:50:19  <Celestar> ^^
08:50:20  <Celestar> not really.
08:50:35  <KUDr> many nested templates reduce readability
08:50:48  <KUDr> and i would like to keep YAPF simpler
08:50:54  <Celestar> Vornicus: if you have any better idea for that triple-pointer, go ahead (=
08:51:06  <Vornicus> Three-star programming is just fine.
08:51:36  <Vornicus> I tend to avoid it, personally, but I rarely code in straight C
08:51:59  <Celestar> the entire function is kinda magic. any C-newbie would run straight away.
08:54:21  <Celestar> it's like a 12 line function which you have to read through several times to understand what it does.

10:17:18  <MeusH> It was some time ago, just when LKRaider wrote his tutorial on how to set up MinGW
10:17:35  <MeusH> okay KUDr, I'll try it
10:17:41  <KUDr> thanks
10:17:59  <KUDr> i am wondering why i didn't notice that problem
10:18:08  <MeusH> however, I'm using MinGW and metapad right now. And here is my question, does anyone have idea on a nice editor with good search (search in files) function, possible syntax highlight?
10:19:56  <KUDr> MeusH: for me it is not big issue to support VC6 project, but i have most issues with its compiler - if anyone can integrate VC6 IDE with free VC8 command line compiler, it would be great

10:25:15  <MeusH> I don't know if it is well configured, but I did it as said on the wiki, and on my previous system it worked just fine

12:57:51  <Hackykid> but you may not have a true A* compatible cost function then, cause the cost of a signal depends on the route being taken to that signal
12:58:18  <Hackykid> but hehm the NPF cost function is also flawed like that, and you usually dont notice it
12:59:20  <KUDr> Hackykid: YAPF cache has two different segments for each real segment (depends on direction you enter)
12:59:58  <Hackykid> hmm, so?
13:00:01  <KUDr> if it is 11th signal or more
13:00:16  <KUDr> why it should depend on the previous nodes?
13:00:34  <Hackykid> say theres a signal
13:00:42  <KUDr> the fist anwer was from my misunderstanding
13:01:02  <Hackykid> 1 route which has that signal as 1st signal, so it generates some penalty
13:01:16  <Hackykid> 1 route which has that signal as 11th signal, so it generates no penalty
13:01:56  <Hackykid> so, the cost of the signal depends on the route being taken to it
13:01:59  <KUDr> Hackykid: first 10 signals are calculated always and not cached

13:04:39  <Hackykid> so?

13:04:46  <Hackykid> its not about caching
13:04:50  <Hackykid> yes, it does

13:05:27  <KUDr> or not?
13:06:12  <Hackykid> well, A* required that the same node always has the same cost, independant on the route being taken to that node
13:06:32  <Tron> that's not true
13:06:35  <Hackykid> but well like a said, NPF suffers from the same thing
13:06:36  <KUDr> are you sure?

13:06:46  <Hackykid> Tron: really?
13:06:53  * Hackykid goes do some checking
13:06:57  <Tron> A* just requires that the estimate to the destination is always lower than the real cost

13:07:48  <Tron> there's also "monotonic estimates", but that just gives some extra properties, but is not necessary for a valid result
13:07:59  <KUDr> so i can't apply bonuses (negative costs)
13:08:06  <Tron> valid in the sense of A* means: find the cheapest path, if it exists
13:08:12  <Hackykid> ah
13:08:40  <blathijs> "cause the cost of a signal depends on the route being taken to that signal" <-- I talked to a friend of mine yesterday, who hacked on an NPF feature: giving every red signal a penalty, the closer the signal the higher the penalties. That resulted in trains taking stupid detours all the time, to increase the distance between themselves and the red signals...

13:09:09  <Born_Acorn> peter1138! newstations!
13:09:14  <Hackykid> well, i once got npf to give me a not-cheapest path, and after discussing it with blathijs and truelight i think, truelight said the problem was the cost function
13:09:29  <Hackykid> oh well, was a long time ago :-p
13:09:35  <Tron> blathijs: read what i just wrote about the estimate!
13:10:11  <blathijs> Tron: I know how A* works, I was just illustrating a funny side effect of applying penalties...
13:11:48  <Hackykid> hmm, yeah, i think i get it now
13:12:26  <KUDr> Hackykid: so i misunderstood you twice

13:14:22  <Hackykid> the thing was, in npf the first signal gets a higher penalty if its red

13:14:38  <KUDr> YAPF too
13:14:48  <Hackykid> so a train would prefer to take a detour that first went to a green signal and then to that red signal
13:14:53  <KUDr> also it has that look ahead as blathijs described
13:15:16  <Hackykid> which kinda suprised me at the time heh
13:15:28  <KUDr> Hackykid: it must be so - load balancing

18:06:13  <hylje> ill look if compiling it manually could make it a bit lighter
18:06:20  <Brianetta> hylje: It does
18:06:30  <Brianetta> Don't use an ebuild
18:06:49  <Brianetta> because they suck for any application that has a variable amount of dependencies
18:06:49  <hylje> ebuild's for .4.0 anyway
18:07:01  <Maedhros> hylje: with USE="-png -zlib dedicated" the only dependency is sdl
18:07:04  <Brianetta> They assume the largest number of dependencies
18:07:16  <Brianetta> Maedhros: You don't even need SDL
18:07:33  <Brianetta> Like I said, avoid the ebuild
18:07:49  <Brianetta> Use it for system stuff, but OpenTTD is more flexible than Gentoo
18:08:02  <Brianetta> My nightly server, BTW, is a Gentoo box
18:08:13  <Brianetta> I know what I am talking about (:

18:35:08  <cobratbq> hi guys, got kind of a weird sound problem with OpenTTD
18:35:19  <cobratbq> I've already searched the forums and didn't get an anser
18:35:22  <cobratbq> answer
18:35:52  <cobratbq> symptoms: OpenTTD takes 2 to 3 times longer than it's supposed to to start up
18:36:05  <glx> what OS?
18:36:08  <cobratbq> I don't hear any sound effects nor music (nor anything else you can think)
18:36:10  <cobratbq> WinXP
18:36:12  <cobratbq> SP2 EN
18:36:32  <Brianetta> Updated http://ppcis.org/nightly/ to include previous saved games for download.
18:36:39  <Darkvater> do you have soundcard?
18:36:56  <cobratbq> Terratec Aureon 7.1 Space
18:37:24  <cobratbq> but when I disable the music (-m null) I still don't get sounds
18:37:33  <cobratbq> but it does startup at normal speed
18:37:53  <glx> maybe a bad sample.cat
18:38:10  <Darkvater> does the soundcard work properly otherwise?
18:38:11  <cobratbq> can't, I'm using the same files on a laptop and it works fine there
18:38:23  <Darkvater> have you tried the other options for music/sound?
18:38:25  <cobratbq> yes, haven't got a single problem/crash or whatever with my soundcard
18:38:26  <cobratbq> yep
18:38:34  <Darkvater> eg the one in the list if you start openttd with -h
18:38:37  <cobratbq> when i -m null openttd starts up at normal speed
18:38:42  <cobratbq> but
18:38:47  <cobratbq> I stilll don't get sound

18:39:22  <Darkvater> or -m win32?
18:39:35  <cobratbq> Sacro: yep
18:39:40  <cobratbq> Sacro: non-beta
18:40:26  <cobratbq> start with no add. options: very slow, no music, no sound, get ticking sound after about half a minute
18:40:39  <cobratbq> start with dmusic: the same
18:40:52  <glx> dmusic is the default
18:41:00  <cobratbq> start with win32: start immediately but no music/sound/whatever
18:41:22  <cobratbq> start with null: starts immediately, but no sound/whatever
18:41:36  <Darkvater> that is weird..I think it's your sound driver
18:41:41  <glx> can you hear the music when you open the .gm in a player?
18:41:50  <Darkvater> I have two winxp SP2 machines here and I get music both with dmusic and win32
18:42:12  <glx> smae here, just a problem with music volume
18:42:21  <Sacro> cobratbq: which version of OpenTTD?
18:42:39  <cobratbq> glx: i hear music playing with mplayer2
18:42:55  <cobratbq> 0.4.7 and nightly
18:43:01  <cobratbq> but had it months ago too
18:43:09  <cobratbq> with nightly then and with 0.4.3 i think
18:43:47  <hylje> does the .4.7 installer cleanly upgrade from .4.5
18:43:56  <hylje> as in, any possible issues
18:44:21  <cobratbq> (btw problem still exists if I don't copy the GM-folder)
18:44:26  <YoG> hi, when I open the map, the games gets real slow... does anyone knows anything about that?
18:44:39  <glx> YoG: map size?
18:44:49  <YoG> even with the smallest
18:45:04  <YoG> glx: thats 64x64 right?
18:45:19  <glx> that's the smallest yes
18:45:58  <YoG> glx: worth mentioning: I'm running it on a linux handheld
18:46:04  <Maedhros> for anyone interested, i've filed a Gentoo bug about openttd depending on libsdl when building a dedicated server: http://bugs.gentoo.org/131704
18:46:13  <glx> YoG: CPU maybe :)
18:46:32  <YoG> glx: 400MHz
18:46:51  <glx> you have sound or not?
18:47:02  <YoG> glx: with sound
18:47:15  <glx> try without ( -m null -s null)
18:47:31  <YoG> glx: checking...
18:48:00  <Darkvater> yeah timidity is a bitch
18:48:22  <Darkvater> cobratbq: did other versions work properly? eg 0.4.6 or 0.4.5 with sound?
18:48:26  <Darkvater> eh music I mean
18:48:40  <cobratbq> havent tried .4.6 and .4.5 but I suspect they don't
18:48:48  <cobratbq> because .4.3 and the nightly then didn't work either
18:49:05  <YoG> glx: nope... still stuck, without the map the game runs just fine

20:19:04  <Sacro> just want to say, on http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?t=24703&start=20 , the train should go straight on rather than branch, as branching goes next to the station but not into it

20:27:19  <Bjarni> I think the other one is kind of backward compatible or something. It was made once for old versions of the patch so it just stayed online or something
20:27:21  <black_Nightmare> ty and..brb

20:32:06  <Brianetta> and your train ain't one without one
20:32:21  <Sacro> it'll make sense with realistic braking
20:32:59  <Brianetta> Sacro: You can add one to a 100km/h train running with many 70km.h trains and it won't keep running ahead and stopping at red signals

21:11:17  <Celestar> Tron: well that makes two of us
21:11:27  <Tron> ?
21:11:46  <Celestar> about the having checked 1500 revisions and not knowing what the owner-leak is caused by
21:12:05  <Tron> i ran a server with 7 AIs for several hours now
21:12:11  <Tron> no sign of owner corruption
21:12:20  <Tron> whereas in that save it was all over the place
21:12:32  <Celestar> I see you have the same ideas about finding the problem as I do (=
21:13:02  <Tron> though tests can never proof the absense of bugs, only their presense
21:13:24  <Celestar> that is true.
21:13:30  <Tron> but even more than an hour of code review didn't bring a single hint

21:18:19  <Tron> Celestar: the wrong tile owner is the _human_ player

21:18:46  <Celestar> what happens to tunnelbridge_cmd.c:1086 then.
21:18:47  <Celestar> ?
21:19:04  <Celestar> and especially how did that line look in previous versions.

21:20:29  <black_Nightmare> (just checking if I was right)
21:20:43  <Tron> i remember fixing something in ChangeTileOwner_TunnelBridge
21:20:50  <Tron> but afair it was harmless
21:20:53  <Celestar> well.
21:20:59  <Celestar> maybe you assumed it was harmless?
21:21:55  <Tron> mom, checking log
21:22:27  <Tron> r3906
21:23:24  <Tron> yes, it is harmless
21:23:34  <Tron> it always thought it was a transport route under a bridge
21:23:35  <Celestar> agree.
21:23:53  <Tron> so it changed grass to grass (because it assumed it was rail)
21:24:19  <Tron> and changed the owner of water to OWNER_NONE (because it assumed it was a road)
21:25:17  <black_Nightmare> another question..if a passenger-carrying engine mentions 'powered wagon: +679hp' does that mean adding one passenger coach to this engine would give it more hp there?

21:26:22  <MeusH> hey RichK67
21:26:28  <Celestar> Tron: my left ball tells me it has something to do with players being removed.
21:26:39  <black_Nightmare> I asked because it states that the engine itself is only 1hp meh (weird heh)
21:26:40  <RichK67> celestar - i tried to add a "terrain progress" meter, but it cant display in the middle of processing - the screen doesnt update
21:26:46  <MeusH> RichK67: were you asked about your compiler yet? :)
21:26:51  <Tron> RichK67: (eg. railtype vs. railtypemask - both describe what railtypes there are, but one uses 2x as many bits, but is far more flexible.) <-- they serve a different purpose, one is in no way a replacement for the other

21:28:27  <Tron> Celestar: if you buy a player you get his rails
21:28:40  <RichK67> glx - err... hang on... i went to bed last night, and ive been out all day (& most of this evening) photographing a wedding... give me a couple of mins to catch up :)
21:28:46  <Darkvater> it's a good way of finding bugs in the game, just sit down and play; don't worry about anything else
21:28:50  <Celestar> Darkvater: do you vote for or against dropping VC6 support ?
21:28:53  <Tron> RichK67: your example was plain wrong
21:29:11  <Celestar> Tron: and what if you remove those rails later? maybe the chain of events causes it?
21:29:35  <Darkvater> Celestar: I never quite liked VC6. It is stupid and has required several workarounds to work properly. But it was always managed with a little work to keep compatible with it
21:29:56  <Tron> Celestar: if nobody buys the the AI though, the rails get removed
21:30:01  <RichK67> tron: ok, in detail, but that it was the purpose of bit-encoding vs. value encoding i was trying to explain to Mr D. so, i chose a bad example; bah!! :)

21:31:30  <Darkvater> Celestar: such as?

21:31:48  <Tron> Celestar: there's no player with that colour
21:31:50  <RichK67> glx: thanks - yes, i read your one about how it could work via threading... that is (currently) about 25 miles way above my knowledge, so I think easiest thing is to put debug output in the routine, so if someone wants to see progress, they run openttd -d 0
21:32:12  <Celestar> Darkvater: 1) KUDr has quite some uglyness in YAPF due to VC6 and openttd.dsw is causing more problems as well.
21:32:27  <Darkvater> openttd.dsw NEVER caused any troubles in the last 2 years
21:32:44  <Darkvater> although I can believe the YAPF troubles
21:32:45  <RichK67> DV: did you come up with a solution to the saving-scenario-with-current-network-player-set problem?
21:32:48  <Tron> RichK67: debug level 0 is always printed
21:33:10  <Darkvater> hell, openttd.dsw is even easier to edit than openttd.sln
21:33:10  <Celestar> unless you have -DNO_DEBUG_MESSAGES
21:33:25  <Celestar> Darkvater: then sync with KUDr about the problems (=
21:33:31  <RichK67> tron: yup, but only if you run from a dos window... if you run direct, its hidden isnt it?

21:36:11  <RichK67> they appear as faint trace lines - check out the congo basin :)
21:36:18  <Darkvater> yeah...pretty amazed at that africa map
21:36:21  <Darkvater> really really cool
21:36:43  <Tron> Celestar: look at the tiles NW of Upper Sinnington
21:36:44  <RichK67> when i/we sort out multi-climates, i will do the same with the USA

21:36:56  <Darkvater> you could've put more oil wells in Iraq though ;p

21:41:00  <Celestar> Tron: 2) the combo signal problem
21:41:03  <Darkvater> it is a new feature but actually not and it does work a lot better
21:41:06  <RichK67> DV: can you test a TGP map to see if it has the same problem; i use the PNGload "VOID" tile code... so i could have same problem
21:41:25  <Darkvater> RichK67: which one?
21:41:49  <Tron> 1) i think it's some kind of hiccup, some custom patch, nuclear weapons tests, ufos, cosmic rays, dust, the usual causes for stuff breaking
21:41:50  <RichK67> any - just d/l TGP, and see if it creates a bad map

21:42:31  <RichK67> i dont know how to check it
21:42:31  <Celestar> RichK67: we NEVER compute a TileIndex from X and Y coordinates manually.
21:42:51  <RichK67> aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhhh... i created TGP when you still did.....
21:43:05  <Celestar> Tron: yes. there no way the info could propagate to required signals with the current system.
21:43:15  <LIIT> hmm, 2) is my bug, and it really annoys me *sniff*
21:43:22  <Darkvater> RichK67: http://darkvater.openttd.org/fix_map.patch < just use this to test
21:43:23  <Celestar> RichK67: I mean things like x * MapSizeX() + y
21:43:30  *** egladil [n=egladil@frukt.csbnet.se] has quit []
21:43:37  <Tron> Celestar: it's technically no bug, the signals works exactly according to their specification
21:43:39  <RichK67> if there was a guide called "how to convert your old map accessors to the new format" - i would be happy :)
21:43:43  <Darkvater> RichK67: and to fix if you uncomment that line. Yes ugly hack, but works
21:43:46  <Celestar> LIIT: yes me too, but without a whole new signalling concept it won't work.
21:43:48  <RichK67> ty DV
21:43:48  <Celestar> Tron: agree.
21:44:00  <Celestar> Tron: it is rather annoying anyways (=
21:44:08  <Darkvater> RichK67: easier than me getting a whole new checkout, patching, compiling etc :)
21:44:10  <LIIT> Celestar: I was actually not sure if it was a bug, or if the signals really are supposed to work like that
21:44:13  <Celestar> LIIT: and technically it is no bug.
21:44:16  <RichK67> okies - thanks
21:44:27  <Celestar> LIIT: the signals are supposed to work like that (see Tron's statement)
21:44:43  <Tron> <Darkvater> it is a new feature but actually not and it does work a lot better <--- it changes the savegame format though, we have to be _very_ careful not to mess up
21:45:03  <Darkvater> damn I always forget some things
21:45:17  <Darkvater> 20:18 <Tron> we have to be _very_ careful with changes which change the savegame revision
21:45:19  <RichK67> sorry DV... i dont quite follow that patch (im not console-aware ;) )
21:45:29  <Celestar> LIIT: and yes I agree that it has to be changed, but there is NO chance that this will happen before 0.5.0.
21:45:34  <Darkvater> RichK67: just goto the console and type 'scrollto 1'
21:45:43  <RichK67> ok
21:45:46  <Darkvater> it will check all edge-tiles for validness
21:45:53  <Darkvater> scrollto-abuse
21:45:56  <RichK67> ok-dokey :)
21:45:59  <LIIT> Celestar: okis *sniff* But it will give me something to look forward too :-D
21:46:29  <Celestar> LIIT: yeah there's tons of other stuff to look forward to in 0.5.0 (hopefully)
21:46:49  <LIIT> hehe, I look forward to 0.4.8 already :-)
21:46:54  <Celestar> hehe (=
21:47:07  <Celestar> we have a number of features we HOPE to have in 0.5.0 that will improve gameplay
21:47:09  <LIIT> But PBS will be nice aswell - and electric rails
21:47:21  <Celestar> PBS is rather 0.5.1 but it shall be seen.
21:47:45  <Celestar> Tron: tomorrow, I'll have a look at the signal problem I've had (created) today, and the reverse train on bridge problem, k?
21:47:49  <LIIT> Haven't tried PBS, switched from ttdpatch to ottd before it was added

21:53:40  <Tron> that just pretends depots are one-way rails

21:54:29  <Tron> (and btw: there are symbolic names for this)
21:55:50  <glx> yes I should use TRACK_BIT_X and TRACK_BIT_Y
21:57:32  <RichK67> Celestar: i dont think TGP needs a progress meter - even 2048x2048 only takes 30secs to do the TGP part... its the rest that add towns, industries etc that are the problem, and i have no idea how i can get it to display & update in the middle of the generation routine
21:58:05  *** egladil [n=egladil@frukt.csbnet.se] has quit []
22:02:25  <Vornicus> um
22:02:53  <Vornicus> Game generation /desperately/ needs a progress meter.  30s is a /very/ long time to appear to hang someone's computer.
22:04:24  <Sacro> even a %age displayed
22:04:45  *** egladil [n=egladil@frukt.csbnet.se] has joined #openttd
22:05:18  <glx> but you can't display any window while generating
22:05:29  <RichK67> vornicus: nope, 3 mins is a looooooooooong time... TGP is positively super-speedy ;)
22:05:52  <RichK67> yup - best i can offer atm is an output in the debug channel
22:05:56  <Vornicus> 10s is a long time.
22:06:30  <Xaroth> anything slower than 'instant' is long for some people...
22:06:34  <black_Nightmare> there any reason for tenderless steam engines being randomly placed backward? (first and only engine on the train)
22:06:51  <Vornicus> especially if the thing appears to freeze.
22:07:32  <Sacro> cant you thread it?
22:08:33  <RichK67> vorn: nothing can be (currently) done about it... once the processing thread enters generation (or any other routine), the screen update thread ceases. it can be threaded i suppose, but to answer the question: No, <i>I</i> cant thread it... i havent the foggiest how to

22:09:43  <Sacro> have a look at how the saveload function does it
22:09:46  <RichK67> i actually have the routine currently updating a dialog that displays the % done in 10% steps; but the screen update isnt done until the thread is complete... so all you see is (eventually) TGP: 100% done
22:10:32  <RichK67> no thanks, sacro. i have better things to spend time on right now, than trying to understand complex C intricacies i dont understand... leave it to those that do
22:11:27  <RichK67> what i can do is add a dialog box that reports (albeit silently) the progress. someone else who understands can solve how it gets displayed
22:11:48  <Tron> RichK67: there are no different threads which hang like you're talking about
22:11:52  <Tron> it's just one thread
22:13:11  <MeusH> RichK67: It's difficult, but you could take a look and try to reproduce the map-downloading progress bar
22:13:12  <glx> RichK67: it's like I explained in the PM
22:13:23  <RichK67> ok - if i force a call to DrawDirtyWindows() or whatever it calls (code not infront of me right now)... it hangs when attempting to update the status line bar with the currency amount
22:14:06  <RichK67> since there is no balance yet defined, it bombs with a invalid string id 0 for GetString error
22:15:13  <RichK67> solving this is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond what i feel i can cope with right now... so if anyone wants to take a look at the code, and try to solve why it doesnt display, i will gladly mail it to them
22:15:47  <glx> there's only one way to solve this: put the generation in a separate thread
22:16:07  <RichK67> ok - would you do it for me? i dont know how
22:17:31  <XeryusTC> threading isn't that hard, the hard part is preventing deadlocks
22:17:33  <Darkvater> oh yeah, good job doing that... you need a backup copy of the whole _m[] struct or else it won't work
22:17:40  <Eddi|zuHause> [29.04. 23:27] <black_Nightmare> another question..if a passenger-carrying engine mentions 'powered wagon: +679hp' does that mean adding one passenger coach to this engine would give it more hp there? <- you need to read the readme of the DBSet, it explains how to use engines like the ET 87
22:17:44  <Darkvater> probably of the cities/industries/about everything else as well
22:19:06  <RichK67> DV: so is this a dead duck? I wont cry :)
22:19:27  <glx> Darkvater: why backup _m[] ?
22:19:33  <Darkvater> well not dead but needs a lot of thinking...or of course you can pause the background game in the meantime and only update the windows
22:19:41  <Darkvater> then you save yourself all the backupping :)
22:20:11  <glx> in map generation the game should be paused anyway
22:20:20  <RichK67> DV: its during terrain generation. is there any way to get the blitter to just blit the one window
22:21:53  <RichK67> that would be a neater solution
22:21:55  <Darkvater> hmm possibly such a force-update would be possible
22:22:18  <Darkvater> perhaps
22:22:45  <RichK67> thats what i tried with DrawDirtyBlocks()... but it tried to draw stuff the data wasnt ready for (and it also draws the new map screen as well :( )
22:23:09  <Darkvater> you need to dirty the right parts :)
22:23:32  <Darkvater> but of course it's possible, even probably so that a LOT of the calls set the dirty blocks
22:23:45  <RichK67> yup they do
22:24:56  <RichK67> i think things like the status bar are drawn dirty, so that on first screen refresh everything gets painted
22:25:00  <glx> RichK67: MarkWholeScreenDirty <-- maybe this is too much
22:25:14  <Darkvater> hmm, some sets don't really work together I think..I got an oil ship that is a truck :P
22:25:36  <RichK67> glx: tried that - does nothing as the drawdirty isnt called
22:26:35  <glx> I know but if you call DrawDirtyBlocks() after MarkWholeScreenDirty() you redraw unwanted windows
22:26:48  <RichK67> as i say, simplest solution is to force blitter to repaint just the specified window
22:27:14  <glx> you could set dirty the progress window

22:27:46  <RichK67> glx: yup, current routine does:
22:27:46  <RichK67>                     ShowTerrainProgress();
22:27:46  <RichK67>                     RedrawScreenRect(250, 250, _screen.width - 250, _screen.height - 250);
22:27:46  <RichK67> fprintf(stderr, "here 3\n");
22:27:47  <RichK67>                     DrawDirtyBlocks();
22:28:16  <RichK67> ShowTerrainProgress is the gui call, that on repaint, marks itself dirty with SetWindowDirty()
22:28:45  <RichK67> the RedrawScreen isnt really necessary, but has some interesting effects i was hoping would work.
22:29:20  <RichK67> lets face it, this is dev code... im hacking it really as i dont know what to do to make it work in the obvious way (as it does everywhere else)
22:29:56  <glx> fprintf(stderr, "here 3\n"); <-- you could use debug("here 3"); to do the same :)
22:30:38  <RichK67> argh... yeah, so i havent learnt to use debug yet... heck, i code with a notepad clone... im not exactly hi-tech ;)

22:42:20  <RichK67> glx: it was only a small snippet of the code; but yes, it isnt bombing in my window, or even in the redraw of my window; its some other window/dirty object that it blows up trying to draw (good excuse, huh? ;) )
22:42:36  <glx> :)
22:44:19  <RichK67> when it pops up the invalid id 0 error for me, as i move the error window around, it repaints areas underneath.. hence me saying i think it is the uninitialised finance amount that is the problem; the status bar is halfdrawn, with only the current balance not displayed... 2+2=5 ;)
22:45:06  <RichK67> of course, this may be solved by initialising finances first, before terrain gen
22:45:14  <RichK67> but i think it does anyway...

23:40:38  <RichK67> glx: ah... yes, it is the weird and wonderful world of _opt_newgame vs _opt. when in the ScenGen, it directly uses _opt for its game vars. when doing a New Game, it uses _opt_newgame. my updated AskResetLandscape routine (yes, i should have created a new gui rather than hijack the existing one), uses _opt_newgame (i think), so it needs to ensure that the correct vars are passed across to it. put it this way; with the code it works, without it, it doesnt
23:43:45  <glx> hmm but old lanscape generator uses opt
23:45:19  <RichK67> old landscape generator didnt have a gui panel that needs to be initialised with game variables
23:46:02  <RichK67> and the panel needs to be shown in both New Game mode and Scen Gen mode... it wasnt fun finding and debugging that stuff
23:46:30  <glx> MakeNewGame sets the correct opt values
23:48:01  <RichK67> but only in GM_NORMAL mode... not in ScenGen
23:50:28  <glx> hmm is AskResetLandscape only for newgame ?
23:51:06  <RichK67> not any more... it is used by both New Game and Scen Gen's GENRANDLAND
23:51:24  <glx> and it uses _opt
23:51:59  <glx> so it should not be a problem to use original calls (MakeNewGame() ...)
23:53:48  <glx> and you can display the tgp settings window in GenerateWorld()
23:54:29  <glx> it's the first common part between newgame an scenario AFAICS
23:54:51  <RichK67> well, when i coded it in feb, i remember i found a few really good reasons why not... but its late, and i cant remember them now... anyway, bottom line is that part of TGP works - i think... its late, can we discuss some other time
23:55:07  <glx> ok
23:56:02  <RichK67> i always prefer to reuse code if possible, so i dont think i would have turned down a gift-horse like MakeNewGame without a good reason
23:56:46  <glx> I'll try what I said to see :)
