00:08:35  <Tefad> btw you fail at swedish.
00:08:46  <Tefad> oh, n/m
00:08:52  <Gonozal_VIII> webtranslator :-)
00:09:16  <Tefad> the last word is "elderberries"
00:09:27  <Gonozal_VIII> i kept on feeding the output back in until it stopped changing... that's the result: det delikat landet har norden, det förenar mest, det Àr det billiga razzian visartavlor. visionrapport
00:10:31  <Gonozal_VIII> does that make any sense?
00:13:51  <Bjarni> no
00:14:19  <Tefad> Din moder Àr en skinka och din fader luktar flÀder!!@*&#
00:14:42  <Sacro> :o
00:14:47  <Bjarni> that makes no sense either but on a completely different level
00:14:54  <Tefad> sure it does
00:15:06  <Tefad> i'm insulting your parents.
00:15:10  <Bjarni> I mean it's supposed to be an insult
00:15:18  <Bjarni> but it's a weird one
00:15:22  <Tefad> it's monty python
00:15:22  <Gonozal_VIII> the elderberries don't make sense
00:15:23  <Tefad> durrr
00:15:44  <Tefad> Your mother is a hamster and your father smells of elderberries!
00:15:46  <Sacro> your mother is a hamster...
00:15:48  <Sacro> damn it ><
00:16:03  <Tefad> see someone knows what's up.
00:16:05  <Bjarni> ohh that one
00:16:14  <Tefad> not as familiar when in swedish is it
00:16:21  <Bjarni> what a poor translation :P
00:16:28  <Tefad> how so?
00:16:37  <Tefad> improve it.
00:16:49  <Bjarni> nahh
00:16:55  <Gonozal_VIII> ni!
00:17:00  <Tefad> is the elderberries part at least correct?
00:17:18  <Bjarni> improving Swedish is like optimising windows though open source kernels
00:17:38  <Tefad> .. reactos anyone?
00:19:09  * Bjarni had Swedish at school
00:19:20  <Tefad> ah
00:19:24  <Tefad> i forget your nationality
00:19:46  <Tefad> have you moved recently?
00:19:47  <Bjarni> I ended up discussing the age of a Swedish short story with the teacher
00:19:52  <Gonozal_VIII>  FRENCH GUARD: I don't wanna talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!
00:20:08  <Bjarni> she dated it to the 19th century
00:20:21  <Bjarni> I said that it could be the 20th century as well
00:20:28  <Tefad> so i hosed the tense.
00:20:31  <Bjarni> we both based it on the same thing :D
00:20:45  <Bjarni> the train had brakemen on the cars
00:20:56  <Bjarni> Sweden didn't start using air brakes until 1920
00:21:44  <Bjarni> <Tefad> i forget your nationality <-- the saw states that everybody in Denmark should learn Swedish and Norwegian in school
00:22:15  <Bjarni> but I was able to read it even before we got that far in school
00:22:28  <Bjarni> Duck Tales was in Swedish
00:22:32  <Bjarni> and stuff
00:22:56  <Bjarni> today I still have more Swedish than Danish TV channels
00:23:18  <Bjarni> for some odd reason
00:23:41  <Bjarni> but great news... I fixed my TV antenna today
00:23:50  <Bjarni> so now I have Danish TV channels again
00:23:54  <Tefad> heh.
00:24:32  <glx> <@Bjarni> <Tefad> i forget your nationality <-- the saw states that everybody in Denmark should learn Swedish and Norwegian in school <-- the saw ?
00:24:37  <Bjarni> kind of odd when the Danish channels died and the Swedish ones stayed when the actual error wasn't the antenna itself but the cable between the antenna and the TV
00:24:58  <Bjarni> s/saw/law
00:25:09  <Gonozal_VIII> http://www.replix.de/shop/images/products/main/filmrepliken/more/saw-puppe.jpg <-- that guy
00:25:10  <Bjarni> wtf
00:25:17  <Bjarni> nobody noticed until now???
00:25:21  <Tefad> i did
00:25:26  <Bjarni> do you even read what I write????
00:25:26  <Tefad> just just read around it
00:25:31  <Bjarni> (I don't) :P
00:25:35  <Gonozal_VIII> sometimes
00:25:36  <Tefad> obviously
00:26:52  <Bjarni> but did you understand that sentence even with the wrong word in it?
00:27:45  <Gonozal_VIII> i assumed that was some kind of school ministry
00:29:18  <Bjarni> heh
00:29:25  <Bjarni> in a way it is
00:29:53  <Bjarni> the laws about our school system usually starts on some desk in the ministry of education

00:35:42  <ln-> anyone been to San Francisco?
00:37:42  <Sacro> is Patric Stout Truelight?
00:38:14  <Rubidium> ln-: yes
00:38:58  <ln-> Rubidium: you?
00:39:29  <Rubidium> yes
00:39:37  <ln-> is it a good place to visit?
00:40:49  <Rubidium> depends on what you're searching for
00:41:06  <Sacro> gay man love!
00:41:49  <ln-> searching for not getting arrested or shot.
00:42:01  <ln-> that must be the #1 priority if planning a trip to the US and A.
00:43:02  <Rubidium> then SF is a nice place
00:43:31  <Gonozal_VIII> only 1 out of 5 tourists gets shot there
00:43:43  <Gonozal_VIII> :-)
00:44:46  <Rubidium> yeah right
00:44:52  <ln-> also SF would not be terribly far away from things such as Grand Canyon.
00:45:12  <Rubidium> you could drive to there within 24 hours
00:45:49  <Rubidium> but I'm not talking about comfortable and such
00:46:22  <ln-> we've sort of being planning a 1+ week trip to the west coast, including a car rental.
00:47:46  <Gonozal_VIII> you can make some cable car grfs while you're there ;-)
00:48:28  <ln-> someone said a car rental for 2 weeks costs only around ~0 in the US.
00:48:50  <Rubidium> ln-: it's a 12 hour drive

00:49:41  <Rubidium> putin! ;)
00:49:49  <ln-> ok.. doesn't make sense to do it in one day, but in two days it's quite possible
00:50:04  <ln-> putin, horshii, horoshii, horoshii!
00:50:20  <Gonozal_VIII> wtf?

00:51:05  <SpComb> it's a nice framework
00:52:53  <ln-> Gonozal_VIII: you're against him?!?
00:53:04  <Rubidium> ln-, a 'free' tip: the bridges near San Francisco are toll bridges, but you only have to pay when you go towards San Francisco (but this only matters when you plan to go north or directly east of San Francisco

00:53:57  <ln-> Rubidium: ok, noted.
00:54:14  <ln-> now i only need to convince >0 people to join the trip.
00:55:12  <ln-> it's a pity that the west coast flights are somewhat more expensive than east coast.
00:56:06  <Rubidium> when do you intend to go?

00:57:46  <ln-> hopefully.
00:58:00  <ln-> or if not, then i'll stay home and play OTTD.
00:58:12  <Gonozal_VIII> good idea :-)
00:58:44  <ln-> Gonozal_VIII: were you here when http://www.russia.ru/putin/ was pasted.. if not, there it is.

01:06:25  <Gonozal_VIII> just talking...

01:07:16  <Gonozal_VIII> hmmm it loads a third video...
01:07:31  <Gonozal_VIII> another commercial
01:09:24  <Gonozal_VIII> one of them said: "scheiße"... i could understand that... but nothing of the rest.. and no music at all there
01:10:58  <Gonozal_VIII> another guy talking...
01:11:06  <ln-> Gonozal_VIII: i wonder which video of them have you seen then...
01:11:22  <ln-> i'm watching the third, with indeed "scheiße" being said in it.
01:11:49  <ln-> but surely the first one about putin has music.
01:13:25  <Gonozal_VIII> you mean that western theme?
01:14:04  <ln-> exactly.
01:14:24  <Gonozal_VIII> "Das Lied vom Tod"

02:02:32  <ln-> something like that :)

12:59:27  <Rubidium> there are more valid vehicles that just that single train ;)
12:59:46  <SpComb> well, all valid VEH_TRAIN vehicles
13:00:03  <SpComb> you can admire the smoke plumes as well, but I probably won't bother listing those
13:00:03  <Bjarni> what if you add another engine to the same train?
13:00:10  <Bjarni> will it make two valid vehicles or one?

13:00:44  <SpComb> it uses the same code as the viewport vehicle_follow stuff
13:01:01  <Bjarni> that's not what I asked
13:01:04  <Bjarni> but good idea
13:01:09  <SpComb> oh right, each wagon is indeed listed seperately
13:01:40  <SpComb> the interesting thing is that the zoom now works properly there, so I may have found a hint as to how virtual_top/virtual_left work
13:02:10  <SpComb> hmm, out of sprite memory
13:02:24  <Rubidium> hmm, did I break it?
13:02:31  <Bjarni> or did I do it?
13:02:38  <Bjarni> hard to tell
13:03:04  <Bjarni> maybe it's not freeing some memory after we get the screenshot
13:03:06  <SpComb> Rubidium: did you crank up the w/h?
13:03:18  <Rubidium> only 'slighty'
13:03:32  <Bjarni> I was more lazy. I only hit reload

13:03:59  <SpComb> the screenshot code should be able to limit the area drawn so as to avoid that, but I don't really understand the code that I copy-pasted over to do that...
13:04:09  <Bjarni> hehe
13:04:10  <SpComb> which is currently my largest issue
13:04:29  <Bjarni> copy pasting code you don't understand and then it crashes... not good :P
13:04:29  <SpComb> I still don't understand what the difference between virtual_left and left is, although I do know that it has something to do with zoom
13:04:50  <SpComb> well, I know why it crashes, I call ViewportDoDraw on too large of an area

13:22:54  <Rubidium> probably means that you are looking in another place for the file than OTTD is

14:46:11  <Gonozal_VIII> you could ask truelight how to get smoth movement for the vehicles between refreshes, he has that in his webdune :-)
14:46:33  <SpComb> I never saw his webdune with that feature, I assume that he has seperate images for each vehicle and then moves those images around
14:47:15  <SpComb> pavel1269: it's still early prototype stage, so it's interesting, but not really /useful/ yet :P
14:47:34  <pavel1269> rly? :)
14:48:09  <SpComb> no, and the performance sucks, if more than two or three people try and use the main scroll-around-thing, the server gets really slow
14:48:30  <SpComb> btw, I moved the server to port 7199, 8118 didn't have UDP opened and thence you couldn't join it
14:48:50  <Bjarni> <SpComb> Bjarni: read the Zoom: thing below the viewport <-- but should it make the pic picture all black?
14:49:19  <Gonozal_VIII> it really is all black not just somewhere outside, i tried scrolling around a lot

14:50:51  <SpComb> scroll up-left, once it goes into the negatives you should get invalid images, but it will happily render fully black images for you no matter how far off to the right/bottom you scroll
14:50:55  <Bjarni> please prevent it from completely scrolling off the map then ;)
14:51:17  <SpComb> I need to figure out how the virtual_left etc stuff works, then it would keep the screen centered on the same place no matter how you scroll

15:26:00  <Hendikins> What does that run on, toy gauge?
15:26:07  <Bjarni> 1067 mm
15:26:15  <Hendikins> A "Yes" will suffice.
15:26:16  <Bjarni> aka Japanese standard gauge
15:26:43  <Bjarni> it's also New Zealand standard gauge if you like
15:26:45  <Gonozal_VIII> would be perfect toyland grfs^^
15:26:52  <pavel1269> :D
15:27:25  <Hendikins> 1067mm is generally considered to be narrow gauge. Some people over here call it "toy gauge" to annoy railfans in Queensland.
15:27:30  <Bjarni> I think I will send a mail to the guys who made the Japanese rail set to include those... they are Japanese after all
15:28:00  <Bjarni> Hendikins: hehe... I didn't know that 1067 mm was referred to as toy gauge
15:28:19  <Hendikins> Bjarni: Only to shit stir :)
15:28:27  <Bjarni> Japan use it for everything
15:28:40  <Bjarni> New Zealand use it for pretty long freight trains

15:35:19  <Gonozal_VIII> dc is nice
15:35:52  <Gonozal_VIII> you can generate ac with just the right frequency for the engines out of it :-)
15:37:03  <Gonozal_VIII> we have engines that go ac --> dc --> ac

15:41:38  <Eddi|zuHause2> the Hz are not an immediate problem, but the Voltage difference...
15:41:40  <Gonozal_VIII> why do we have 16 2/3 Hz?
15:42:05  <Eddi|zuHause2> Gonozal_VIII: because in the early 20th century, transformators ignited a spark on each phase
15:42:17  <Eddi|zuHause2> or rather two sparks
15:42:35  <Eddi|zuHause2> reducing the frequency by 1/3 reduced the chance of overheating

15:43:20  <Eddi|zuHause2> this was not an issue for countries who introduced electric traction at later dates (mid 20th century)
15:45:05  <Eddi|zuHause2> this is a usual problem for techical pioneers
15:45:10  <glx> there are at least 4 systems
15:45:28  <Eddi|zuHause2> by the time you develop an established system, you have to live with some early non-optimal design decisions
15:45:45  <Eddi|zuHause2> or invest a lot of money to switch to the new system
15:46:13  <glx> just use an engine that can work with all ;)
15:47:06  <Eddi|zuHause2> well, germany (and austria) decided for a standard system very early
15:47:17  <Eddi|zuHause2> for the main rail network
15:47:40  <Eddi|zuHause2> other systems exist only for isolated networks (e.g. tram, subway, ...)
15:47:46  <glx> I know some thalys engines can work on 4 systems
15:48:01  <glx> PBKA line
15:48:14  <Eddi|zuHause2> they go inter-european... that had always been an issue
15:49:29  <Eddi|zuHause2> switzerland also has 16 2/3 Hz, i believe, but they have a smaller loading gauge because of their many tunnels
15:50:08  <Gonozal_VIII> All four European electric systems (15 and 25 kV AC, 1.5 and 3 kV DC) can be used by the ES 64 U4 :-)
15:50:17  <Eddi|zuHause2> so engines that go to switzerland (some ICE do that) need to have different pantographs there

16:11:29  <Bjarni>  <Gonozal_VIII> why do we have 16 2/3 Hz? <-- Eddi|zuHause2 is right. Some EMU line in Germany tried to use the cheaper 50 Hz and they melted the copper in the engines (oops)
16:11:58  <Bjarni> 16 2/3 Hz is 1000 RPM in the generator
16:12:28  <Bjarni> 1000 RPM is a common speed when it comes to railroads... it's the most common max speed for diesel locomotives
16:14:41  <Eddi|zuHause2> i'm not sure in how far that applies to diesel-hydraulic engines (very common in germany)
16:15:21  <Eddi|zuHause2> the ICE-TD were an attempt of diesel-electric, didn't work out that well...
16:15:30  <Bjarni> hehe
16:16:09  <Bjarni> diesel-electric has the potential to work better than diesel-mechanic
16:16:10  <Eddi|zuHause2> i heard diesel-electric is very common in britain
16:16:18  <Bjarni> but it's not a sure way to a good design
16:16:33  <Bjarni> diesel-electric is the way to go in the entire world
16:16:45  <Bjarni> except Germany... do you know why?
16:17:23  <Eddi|zuHause2> i assume diesel-hydraulic was a proven concept long before diesel-electric came up
16:17:33  <Bjarni> actually not
16:17:49  <Gonozal_VIII> because diesel is more expensive than electric?
16:18:16  <Eddi|zuHause2> Gonozal_VIII: this is about the internal workings... all diesel enginges are driven by the same diesel

16:18:58  <Eddi|zuHause2> the difference is the way the energy takes from the burning process to the wheel traction
16:19:07  <Bjarni> Germany was THE locomotive factory in Europe until WW2. After WW2 everybody had to replace their steam trains with diesel and USA got the idea that Germany shouldn't be the country to deliver them because the war should be reason enough for them not to make money so they banned German produced diesel-electric locomotives
16:19:30  <Bjarni> then the only alternative that could make locomotives in the needed amount was General Motors
16:19:46  <Bjarni> however Germany came up with diesel-hydralics to get around the diesel-electric ban
16:19:55  <Eddi|zuHause2> that might be an explanation ;)
16:20:28  <Bjarni> diesel-electric is better suited for the heavy work all locomotives has to do
16:20:44  <Bjarni> trains tend to weigh several tons
16:21:16  <Bjarni> electric traction have a way easier time starting under such a load
16:24:06  <Bjarni> well... long story short: USA used the war to gain a new big market for General Motors
16:24:09  <Eddi|zuHause2> you just have to get the engine to speed before coupling with the wheels to start to drive...
16:24:29  <Bjarni> well
16:24:38  <Eddi|zuHause2> it is well known that the USA are THE economic winner of the war
16:24:46  <SpComb> http://dev.myottd.net:8119/sprite?v=12 <-- woo! I has myself a single sprite!
16:25:03  <Bjarni> that's not really possible with mechanical traction... it's a bit easier with hydraulic traction but still...
16:25:03  <SpComb> although the background needs to be transparent and it needs to draw the wagons as well
16:25:10  <Eddi|zuHause2> unlike the other "winners" (france, britain, soviet union), they never had a fight on their mainland
16:25:19  <Eddi|zuHause2> so the infrastructure was completely intact
16:25:44  <Bjarni> electric traction has a whole lot more force to start on compared to all other used traction types for railroads (when comparing locomotives of the same amount of HP)
16:26:17  <Bjarni>  <Eddi|zuHause2> unlike the other "winners" (france, britain, soviet union), they never had a fight on their mainland <-- except for Pearl Harbour
16:26:34  <Gonozal_VIII> ?
16:26:38  <Eddi|zuHause2> a far offshore island hardly counts as "main land" :p
16:26:54  <Gonozal_VIII> i wouldn't say so
16:27:11  <Bjarni> but then again Japan made a counter attack on USA. USA used oil blockade as a weapon. Japan used bombs
16:27:30  <Eddi|zuHause2> when you speak of USA main land, you generally exclude Alaska and Hawaii
16:27:51  <Bjarni> do you know why Japan attacked Pearl Harbour?
16:28:07  <Eddi|zuHause2> because it was the nearest target?
16:28:16  <glx> because they could?
16:28:31  <Bjarni> no
16:29:31  <LordAzamath> because it was the only place USA could reach them (they did anyway, but I don't remember history classes well)?
16:29:32  <Bjarni> USA decided to butt in on Japan's war against Korea and declared that all oil producing countries should boycott Japan
16:29:47  <Bjarni> Japan used diplomacy to stop that but everybody else did as USA told them to do
16:30:22  <Eddi|zuHause2> Bjarni: the V120 (pre-war diesel engine (prototype)) was diesel-pneumatic
16:30:36  <Bjarni> then Japan knew that they had to do something. Having the biggest navy in the Pacific is useless without oil when it's diesel powered so they took control of the Dutch oil wells in Indonesia
16:31:16  <Bjarni> they attacked Pearl Harbour, Bangkok and a few other strongholds to make sure that no stronghold could make a sneak attack on their oil tankers
16:31:52  <Bjarni> basically the attack on Pearl Harbour was a war on who controls the oil and who is allowed to get oil from the controllers
16:31:57  <Bjarni> hmm
16:32:06  <Bjarni> haven't we heard about wars like that before?
16:32:23  <Eddi|zuHause2> the V120 had pistons known from steam engines, driven by a diesel compressor
16:33:16  <Eddi|zuHause2> diesel-mechanic traction is only useful with low power (e.g. railcars)
16:33:28  <Bjarni>  <Eddi|zuHause2> Bjarni: the V120 (pre-war diesel engine (prototype)) was diesel-pneumatic <--- scientists have come up with a whole lot of different ideas to see what could be usable. The question is which designs that can gain trust at the guys with the money
16:34:07  <Eddi|zuHause2> actually, the order of the V120 was not given because of upcoming oil-shortage during the war
16:34:20  <Bjarni> <Eddi|zuHause2> diesel-mechanic traction is only useful with low power (e.g. railcars) <-- actually the limitation is how much force you can get though the gearbox/clotch. A light railcar needs less force to gain the same acceleration
16:34:47  <Eddi|zuHause2> yeah... "force", that's what i meant when i said "power"
16:35:39  *** titus_ [~titus@intter.net] has joined #openttd
16:35:41  <Bjarni> you can actually apply high power as long as you have a force limitation
16:36:17  <Bjarni> it's just not very usable to be able to have a high power output (possibly high speed) when you can't have the needed force to make it practically usable
16:37:26  *** titus [~titus@intter.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
16:39:53  <Bjarni> say you have an engine that has enough power to drive 200 km/h, but at 80 km/h, the resistance evens out the max force from the engine then the engine is really poorly designed
16:40:38  <Bjarni> hehe... speaking of ICE-TD... it's on the news here today
16:41:06  <Bjarni> since they aren't needed in Germany anymore some clever guy figured "let's send them to Denmark"
16:41:24  <Bjarni> to make a line between Hamburg and Copenhagen
16:41:40  <Bjarni> and they are pretty far in the process and now they noticed something
16:41:50  <hylje> haha wut
16:41:58  <Bjarni> ICE standard platforms and Danish standard platforms don't match
16:42:09  <hylje> in the wrong way?
16:42:40  <Bjarni> today they announced some station names where ICE will not stop anyway because it wouldn't be safe to get in and out of the train
16:43:09  <Bjarni> the platforms are too low, making a huge step
16:43:26  <hylje> ha
16:43:31  <Bjarni> and nobody considered checking this earlier?
16:43:43  <hylje> everybody assumed somebody already checked
16:43:47  <hylje> but wouldnt that be kinda trivial to make ramps for the doors
16:44:00  <hylje> because the trains should be able to stop quite accurately for them
16:44:06  <Bjarni> the platforms should still fit the local trains...
16:44:19  <hylje> sure
16:44:30  <hylje> its not like the platform needs to be a perpetual ramp
16:44:47  * Bjarni decides to turn on the TV news to see what they have to say about it
16:44:57  <Eddi|zuHause2> normally, trains have adjustable steps under the door that go out to fit the different height platforms
16:45:41  <Bjarni> well... it's not the first time train size came as a surprise in Denmark
16:45:45  <Eddi|zuHause2> but i guess that was only needed for local rail lines
16:46:05  <Bjarni> I have no idea how many signals, platforms and stuff that has been moved due to new trains being wider than the old ones
16:46:24  <Eddi|zuHause2> as the long-distance stations probably have standardised heights
16:47:38  <hylje> long distance implies speed implies new stuff implies more standard (recent) stuff
16:47:39  <Eddi|zuHause2> unlike the USA, who just used the new engines, and the bridge broke because nobody checked if it would hold the double weight
16:47:42  <Bjarni> I like this one a lot: When the lines in Copenhagen got new EMUs, they were wider than the old ones, so to prepare for them they made a wooden frame of the size of it, put it on one of those work units and drove around noting everywhere it hit something and made sure it was moved
16:47:46  <Bjarni> what's wrong with that plan?
16:48:19  <hylje> hm?
16:48:22  <Eddi|zuHause2> different sizes in curves?
16:49:37  <Bjarni> <Eddi|zuHause2> unlike the USA, who just used the new engines, and the bridge broke because nobody checked if it would hold the double weight  <-- the railroads declared this unexpected bad luck that nobody could have guessed would happen... that story worked well for a few decades until the passengers formed kind of unions who wanted to punish railroad owners who didn't do anything for security
16:49:43  * SpComb wonders who to ask about code that was commited in r1
16:50:02  <Bjarni> and the politicians likes to do what the voters likes to do so they made a new law banning really low security
16:50:08  <SpComb> or would anybody happen to know how to get libpng to generate pngs with a transparent background instead of a black one?
16:50:26  <Bjarni> <Eddi|zuHause2> different sizes in curves? <-- actually not
16:50:55  <Eddi|zuHause2> then, please, enlighten us
16:51:00  <Bjarni> the real issue was.... distance between two tracks on a double tracked line... they checked one track at a time and didn't realise that the safety distance between two passing trains was violated
16:51:55  <Eddi|zuHause2> err... you must have pretty narrow distance then...
16:52:14  <Bjarni> or a wide safety margin
16:52:27  <Bjarni> also it was a certain spot on a specific station
16:52:31  <Bjarni> and only one station
16:52:43  <Eddi|zuHause2> so, what happened?
16:52:55  <Bjarni> eventually somebody noticed
16:53:12  <Bjarni> and I presume one of the tracks is moved a few cm
16:53:22  <Bjarni> it's not like some trains hit each other
16:53:32  <Sacro> :o

17:08:51  <Bjarni> great... somebody got the idea to calculate the amount of CO2 produced in Denmark and divide it on the population... nothing new there except they decided to include all ships using Danish flags and now they claim Denmark to be a really polluting country because they include all the MAERSK ships
17:08:58  <Bjarni> how useless is that???
17:09:32  <SmatZ> what is wrong about that?
17:09:35  <Bjarni> we will become more environmentally friendly if we change all MAERSK ships to use flags from countries like Panama?
17:09:44  <SmatZ> yes
17:10:07  <Bjarni> <SmatZ> what is wrong about that? <-- MAERSK if by far the biggest container shipping company. They transport containers all over the world
17:10:08  <SmatZ> when Denmark changes its laws, it will become more environment friedly
17:10:49  <SmatZ> anyway - how much pollution can ships cause?
17:10:55  <Bjarni> so the new calculation means that when a Danish ship transport containers between USA and Asia then it counts as our local emissions
17:11:16  <Bjarni> <SmatZ> anyway - how much pollution can ships cause? <-- a lot when they are big and there are a lot of them
17:11:31  <SmatZ> then they should be renewed to cause less pollution

17:21:11  <Bjarni> it goes without saying that so many so big ships has to transport for more or less all countries so declaring that one country alone should be responsible for the pollution is kind of far out
17:22:02  <Gonozal_VIII> the country that owns them is responsible for them
17:22:11  <Bjarni> sure
17:22:27  <Bjarni> but it's not the same as declaring that we waste energy while other countries don't
17:23:19  <Bjarni> we should consider pollution from ships (which is a mistake in the Kyoto protocol) but declaring international shipping a national problem isn't the right way to do it
17:23:27  <Gonozal_VIII> we austrians waste much less on ships!

17:27:10  <Bjarni> in OTTD?

17:27:29  <Gonozal_VIII> the pictures you posted
17:27:56  <Bjarni> ahh
17:28:06  <Bjarni> it's the limit for how far into the water they are allowed to go
17:28:07  <Gonozal_VIII> do they pull those frames out like drawers with the containers on them and put different ones in instead? :-)
17:28:10  <Bjarni> due to heavy cargo
17:28:24  <Bjarni> or are we talking about a different red thing? :)
17:28:58  <Gonozal_VIII> the red stuff on deck :-)
17:29:04  <Bjarni> ok
17:29:20  <Bjarni> then I answered a different question
17:30:46  <SpComb> the libpng people should have found some time during the past 14 years to document their functions a little bit better
17:30:47  <Bjarni> the red/brown thingies on the deck is to connect to the containers... I presume it's for stability or making sure that the first container is placed correctly to ensure that there is room for the last one as well
17:31:01  <Bjarni> SpComb: :P
17:31:11  <SpComb> trying to figure out how to get libpng to give you a transparent background is almost as difficult as figuring out how OpenTTD's viewport code works
17:31:34  <Bjarni> Gonozal_VIII: also it's possible that they are for connecting cables and stuff to the containers.... some containers needs electricity for cooling and stuff
17:31:53  <Gonozal_VIII> ah... could be
17:32:04  <SpComb> http://dev.myottd.net:8119/sprite?v=10 <-- otherwise fine, but the background is black :(
17:32:05  <Gonozal_VIII> but the drawer thing would be nice :D
17:32:16  <SpComb> and I'm not sure where the black comes from, perhaps it's OpenTTD's blitter
17:33:06  <Bjarni> maybe they can move containers sideways as well... for all we know some cranes are too short to reach the far end of the ship
17:33:11  <SmatZ> SpComb: maybe - sprite borders are transparent, and the background is zeroed (=black) before?
17:33:27  <Bjarni> though I think it would be easier and cheaper to ensure that all cranes are big enough
17:33:41  <Bjarni> MAERSK buys harbours and ensure that they fit their own ships

17:35:03  <SpComb> I need to somehow add a transparent palette entry and then fill the background with that
17:35:24  <SpComb> hmm, nevermind, the buffer being zeroed before is irrelevant
17:35:35  <Bjarni> yeah
17:35:55  <Bjarni> you still need a bitmask for what to be background and what to be image
17:37:01  <SpComb> bitmask where? :/
17:37:57  <Bjarni> I don't know
17:39:03  <Bjarni> the idea is to make an array of bits so you have one bit for each pixel
17:39:15  <Bjarni> then it's a bool if the pixel is the picture of background
17:39:23  <Bjarni> but I don't know how to actually do it
17:40:06  <SpComb> is that how it works for png as well?
17:40:28  <Sacro> ooh, interesting
17:40:28  <Bjarni> I think so but I'm not entirely sure
17:40:46  <Sacro> don't you need an alpha layer?
17:40:49  <Bjarni> not the best answer I could give you but... it's the best I can come up with
17:40:55  <SpComb> currently for 8bpp it does a paletted image, and there's some functions to do things to alpha of paletted somethings
17:41:05  <SpComb> so I don't think PNG uses a bitmask, but an alpha channel/palette
17:41:28  <Bjarni> <Sacro> don't you need an alpha layer? <-- I think I just described a 1-bit alpha layer
17:41:47  <Sacro> Bjarni: yes... isn't it normally 255bit?
17:41:59  <Bjarni> normally yes

17:51:06  <Rubidium> the blitter doesn't know that either

19:28:26  <SpamCannon> Which port should I be gunning for, if I ever figure out how to open one?
19:28:53  <Rubidium> @openttd ports
19:28:53  <DorpsGek> Rubidium: OpenTTD uses TCP and UDP port 3979 for server <-> client communication and UDP port 3978 for masterserver (advertise) communication (outbound)
19:30:20  <SpamCannon> Oh, hold on... Maybe this will fix it. PeerGuardian 2 has been blocking what it refers to as "Refresh Media". I'll try again.
19:30:22  <Eddi|zuHause2> SpamCannon: as a first debug measure, i'd advise you to go to servers.openttd.org, pick a server, and connect to it via IP address
19:30:50  <SpamCannon> Okiedoke, I'll do that right after this bit fails.
19:31:02  <Eddi|zuHause2> you seem very confident ;)
19:31:20  <SpamCannon> Aha!
19:31:35  <SpamCannon> PeerGuardian 2 was indeed to blame.
19:32:10  <Eddi|zuHause2> yeah, that'd have been my primary suspect
19:32:17  <SpamCannon> It's a program that block malicious traffic (prying eyes) while you're torrenting stuff. Privacy-related. But for some reason it also block openttd.
19:32:27  <SpamCannon> blocks

19:35:08  <SpamCannon> It makes no sense to drop being a troll. Ever.
19:35:25  <Eddi|zuHause2> i sense an upcoming *plonk*
19:35:30  <ben_goodger> hm?
19:35:34  <SpamCannon> Selective trolling? Yes. Retire trolling? No.
19:35:42  <SpamCannon> Retire from*
19:54:04  <SpamCannon> What's the bandwidth usage for running a server?
19:57:09  <gono_ping_timeout> "it depends"
19:57:54  <ln-> depends on how much you troll on the chat.
19:58:04  <SpamCannon> Okay, let's say you're running a 1024x2048 server that is fairly popular and usually has at least 5 people playing.
19:58:11  <Eddi|zuHause2> SpamCannon: it is said around 3kb per client, plus downloading the map multiple times
19:58:42  <Eddi|zuHause2> the first half can be reduced by setting net_frame_freq, the second one by reducing the map size
19:59:11  <SpComb> 3kbit/s?
19:59:21  <gono_ping_timeout> easiest way to reduce map size is to cut down the trees
19:59:24  <SpComb> 3kB/s?
19:59:26  <Eddi|zuHause2> no, kbyte
19:59:33  <SpamCannon> What's the downside of reducing net_frame-freq?
19:59:52  <Eddi|zuHause2> increased lag between issuing a command and getting a result
20:00:20  <SpamCannon> Okay, so, in reality, I don't want to reduce either, right?
20:01:39  <Eddi|zuHause2> e.g. if you set net_frame_freq=3, the servers waits 3 ticks, gathers all commands issued during that time, and sends them as a bulk, together with the randomseed as checksum

20:01:45  *** mode/#openttd [+v glx|away] by ChanServ
20:02:10  <Eddi|zuHause2> usually, commands are very few, so the main bandwidth is taken up by the checksum
20:02:25  <Eddi|zuHause2> it was reported that some people still had playable games with net_frame_freq=10
20:02:31  *** glx is now known as Guest70
20:02:31  *** glx|away is now known as glx
20:02:39  <SpamCannon> gono_ping_timeout, how do I reduce trees apart from initial settings and then blowing them up later? Is there a way to set a maximum number of trees for the map at any point in time?
20:02:42  <Eddi|zuHause2> generally, the higher the number, the more frames get left out
20:02:53  *** gono_ping_timeout is now known as Gonoozal_VIII
20:03:03  <SpamCannon> Also, I have no idea what randomseed/checksum is. I kinda understood what you said, tho.
20:03:31  <Eddi|zuHause2> a checksum is to check if all clients still have the same map
20:04:01  <Gonoozal_VIII> a map with lots of water is smaller than a land map of the same size... but that doesn't help much... you can't influence trees
20:04:11  <Eddi|zuHause2> a complete checksum would require much cpu time, so only the random seed (defines the sequence of (pseudo-)random numbers) is used
20:04:28  <SpamCannon> Aha. Yeah, that makes sense. But randomseed? Sounds an awfully wrong choice to send after checking something that's supposed to be definite.
20:04:52  <Eddi|zuHause2> so if one client makes a different random decision than the server, you issue a "desync error"
20:05:02  <Rubidium> the 'random' seed is not as 'random' as you think
20:05:20  <Eddi|zuHause2> the random seed must be the same on all clients at all times
20:05:26  <Rubidium> given the same initial vectors it will always generate the same sequence
20:05:51  <SpamCannon> Yeah, I remember the desyncs. Basically, every checksum only covers a portion of the game, but the same portion on every client?
20:06:37  <Rubidium> the 'checksum' is the random number, which covers the whole map
20:07:01  *** Guest70 [glx@bny93-6-82-245-156-124.fbx.proxad.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
20:07:49  <Eddi|zuHause2> SpamCannon: this basically runs under the assumption, that when the map differs, sooner or later, a random decision is made on the server, that is not done on the client or vice versa (e.g. tree creation)
20:08:11  <Eddi|zuHause2> then the random seed differs, and BAM
20:08:33  <SpamCannon> Ahou. So the random seed is like a summery of the map, then?
20:08:43  <SpamCannon> summary*
20:08:48  <Eddi|zuHause2> yes, almost
20:09:18  <SpamCannon> Well, refers to the whole map in its current state, anyway?
20:09:30  <Eddi|zuHause2> yes
20:09:48  <Eddi|zuHause2> basically, what a random seed does:
20:09:53  <Eddi|zuHause2> when you make a random decision
20:09:58  <Eddi|zuHause2> you take the random seed
20:10:02  <Rubidium> 'current' being an interval of a few game days
20:10:20  <Eddi|zuHause2> and have a predictable formula to calculate a random number, and a new random seed
20:10:45  <Eddi|zuHause2> so when one client does a random decision, it changes the random seed
20:10:55  <Eddi|zuHause2> if the other client does not do a random decision, it leaves the random seed unchanged
20:10:57  <Eddi|zuHause2> then they differ
20:11:20  <SpamCannon> I understood that bit. Thanks.
20:11:58  <SpamCannon> Have the desyncs ceased happening or do you still get them?
20:12:17  <Eddi|zuHause2> occasionally there still are some
20:12:26  <Eddi|zuHause2> the reasons why they occure have changed
20:12:30  <Gonoozal_VIII> they used to be much more frequent
20:12:40  <Rubidium> but those are usually because of people are messing with version numbers and patches
20:13:01  <valhallasw> so if the server and client do something different using the same number of random numbers nothing will be detected?
20:13:07  <Gonoozal_VIII> i haven't had a desync for a long time
20:13:17  <Eddi|zuHause2> valhallasw: yes. but that is a really rare case
20:13:22  <valhallasw> of course
20:13:25  <CIA-1> OpenTTD: glx * r11561 /trunk/src/group_gui.cpp: -Fix [FS#1504] (r11463): group list was not updated when removing the last group
20:13:45  <Rubidium> and it would give a different random later due to the changes, or you must be really lucky
20:14:05  <SpamCannon> I remember I had some station that didn't collect cargo from a raw industry and at the same time people started desyncing heavily. I didn't. So I killed the station and made a new one. It worked like it was supposed to. People stopped desyncing. That's as close as I ever got.
20:14:23  <SpamCannon> Other than that, they always seemed to be random. And creepy.
20:14:29  <Eddi|zuHause2> valhallasw: note that you need to make the same amount of random decisions in each 100 tick period
20:14:37  <valhallasw> Eddi|zuHause2: *grin*
20:14:40  <Rubidium> like a one in a googolplex change
20:16:02  <SpamCannon> Hunger strikes. Back in a bit.
20:16:32  <Gonoozal_VIII> the desyncs seemed to happen more frequently when a line was jammed and several trains had to wait in front of red lights... but not only then, looked very random
20:18:24  <Eddi|zuHause2> i remember, in MiniIN, CPU usage increased heavily, when my lines were jammed
20:18:50  <glx> pbs?
20:18:52  <Eddi|zuHause2> (i assume this was PBS related)
20:20:44  <valhallasw> the only desyncs I have had were grf-related, really
20:21:04  <Gonoozal_VIII> we didn't use grfs back then...
20:23:44  <SpamCannon> I read gf-related
20:24:02  <Eddi|zuHause2> everybody reads what he wants to read ;)

20:29:12  <valhallasw> she is called 'OpenTTD'? :P
20:31:04  <SpamCannon> I know you would accept that as a legit answer if that was the case, but no. I quit playing OpenTTD when my partner decided that enough was enough and shut up the server. The fresh girlfriend is actually a real, genuine girl.
20:31:42  <valhallasw> :D
20:32:55  <Eddi|zuHause2> and we should believe that because this is the internet and a channel about openttd?
20:33:20  <SpamCannon> OpenTTD isn't a bad choice at all for a relationship when humans think you're too much of a basement dweller to associate with you. Better than Everquest, haha.

21:43:05  <SpamCannon> I remember KaZaA came down with a severe case of "everything you download is scrambled".

21:44:00  <Prof_Frink> Yeah
21:44:03  <Eddi|zuHause2> SpamCannon: a client cannot judge wether given data is garbage until you have downloaded a complete chunk, and the checksum does not match
21:44:09  <SpamCannon> Put poison in the weed...
21:44:41  <SpamCannon> That's the "piece", then?

21:45:23  <Gonoozal_VIII> ea thing again...
21:46:31  <Eddi|zuHause2> SpamCannon: the problem with that is, that especially for large piece sizes, you often have multiple people contributing to the same piece
21:46:39  <SpamCannon> So, in effect, all they're doing is making the downloads longer?
21:46:48  <Eddi|zuHause2> so one evil person could poison the work of a lot of other "good" peers

22:59:01  * Bjarni warns SpamCannon
22:59:09  <Worldbeing> As a poor innocent and naive newbie, can I ask *why* no YouTube links?
22:59:09  <Prof_Frink> Well, it's based on English.
22:59:10  <Bjarni> consider this an official warning
22:59:12  <SpamCannon> Is that like a ban-lite?
22:59:25  <SpamCannon> I don't do half measures.
22:59:41  <Bjarni> Worldbeing: I don't get that part either :s
23:00:13  <SpamCannon> Rules are rules. They can be nonsensical. They usually are. Getting banned is the fun bit.
23:00:14  <Prof_Frink> Bjarni: Excise it from t'topic and see what happens
23:00:21  <Bjarni> I already did
23:00:24  <Bjarni> it ended up there again
23:00:38  <Bjarni> I think our topic is cursed or something
23:01:30  <Eddi|zuHause2> actually, i think truebrain added it

23:10:15  <Bjarni> I still wonder how they have DC and AC at the same time
23:10:28  <Bjarni> has to be DC on one part and AC on the other
23:10:36  <Bjarni> not both at the same track
23:10:50  <Bjarni> though that would be possible using 3rd rail

23:17:19  <SpamCannon> What's black? No railways?
23:17:33  <Worldbeing> Just no info, I assume.
23:17:42  <Worldbeing> I'm pretty sure Cornwall has railways :D
23:18:00  <Bjarni>  <SpamCannon> What's black? No railways? <-- no catenary
23:18:10  <Bjarni> at least it fits the parts of Denmark without catenary

23:20:05  <Prof_Frink> Bjarni: And the yellow bit in SE England is 3rd rail, not cat
23:20:10  <Bjarni> then some politicians decided that diesel were better than electric trains
23:20:17  <Bjarni> I still don't get why

23:23:28  <SpamCannon_> It's okay when you can hop on a bright green caterpillar-like diesel train from my station and take it straight to the airport/back, but once I had to come back so late in the evening, no long-distance diesels moved. Got to switch from an electric train to a diesel train and then to an electric train again.

Got to switch from an electric train to a diesel train and then to an electric train again. <- i have not seen diesel long-distance in a long time
23:28:29  <Eddi|zuHause2> but then... i live in an area where some tracks got electrified 3 times ;)
23:28:59  <toet> long distance/long trains here are mostly diesel
23:29:49  <Bjarni> hmm... according to those numbers Europe should have 32'264 km of tracks with 15 kV and 16 2/3 Hz while there are 32'392 km worldwide.... wtf is that for a country outside Europe that has 128 km of tracks using this odd frequency?
23:30:06  <Eddi|zuHause2> i only know one main line that has not been electrified
23:30:08  <Bjarni> it's not listed in the wikipedia list of catenary voltages
23:30:14  <Eddi|zuHause2> and they finally made plans to electrify it
23:30:42  <Bjarni> here it's like the railroad itself is trying not to get catenary
23:31:00  <Bjarni> I mean for some reason they had a whole lot of catenary falling down this summer
23:31:30  <Bjarni> some questioned the maintenance but I don't know if that is the real reason
23:31:39  <Eddi|zuHause2> the last line that i remember being electrified was the track from Stralsund over the RÃŒgendamm to Saßnitz

23:32:04  <Eddi|zuHause2> that was around the 1990's
23:32:10  <toet> everyone should be glad you have no NS managing the trains in ur country x/
23:32:17  <Bjarni> I do know that the Swedish school class who were on a one day trip to Copenhagen will remember it... 2 or 3 of them actually got hit by falling catenary o_O
23:32:45  <Bjarni> they didn't get an electrical shock though so I presume that the security system kicked in and disconnected the wire
23:32:48  <Eddi|zuHause2> Bjarni: i hope it was unpowered...
23:32:56  <Bjarni> otherwise it would have been 25 kV
23:33:14  <Eddi|zuHause2> that's not a cool thing to have...
23:33:34  <Bjarni> it was powered before it fell down
23:33:59  <Bjarni> then the railroad said "it's the first time ever anybody got hit by falling catenary"
23:34:11  <Eddi|zuHause2> well, then it comes down to wether it hits something metallic before it hits the people
23:34:39  <Eddi|zuHause2> all metallic objects in reach of the catenary have to be grounded

23:34:49  <Eddi|zuHause2> and short-cut to the security system
23:34:54  <Bjarni> you can't be sure that catenary will stay unpowered even if the power is off
23:35:25  <Bjarni> the magnetic field generated by 25 kV 50 Hz means that one wire can charge the wire in the track next to it
23:35:30  <Bjarni> in worst case
23:35:38  <Eddi|zuHause2> well, normally, there should not be anyone on the tracks to be hit by catenary
23:35:47  <Bjarni> so in theory a wire is powered even when the power is cut
23:36:08  <Bjarni> unless somebody physically connects it to the ground (the tracks)

23:36:59  <Eddi|zuHause2> it's an odd incident anyway...
23:37:09  <Bjarni> yeah
23:37:28  <Eddi|zuHause2> i'd sue the rail company senseless...

23:40:13  <Bjarni> you might be able to get something from the railroad here

23:59:35  <Eddi|zuHause2> i could probably derive it given enough time
23:59:37  <ln-> Bjarni: place Kaunas.
23:59:40  <Bjarni> Tallinn is fairly close to Finland so it has to be Estonia because Estonia is closest to Finland
