08:37:19  <Rubidium> 150 revisions doesn't sound like 2-3 months

08:53:52  <Zetum> Hi
08:54:51  <Zetum> I need some help.
08:55:59  *** tux_mark_5 [~kvirc@lan-84-240-29-163.vln.skynet.lt] has joined #openttd
08:56:58  <welshdragon> Zetum: just ask
08:57:55  <Zetum> My second train won't leave the depot without signals.
08:58:35  <welshdragon> you need signals then
08:59:21  <Zetum> What if I want my trains to be able to collide.
08:59:30  <welshdragon> Zetum: that's just silly
08:59:39  <welshdragon> and not the point of the game
09:00:01  <Zetum> But then I'll know really well if I made something wrong
09:00:20  <welshdragon> Zetum: if your trains don't move then something's wrong
09:00:29  <welshdragon> i suggest you read http://wiki.openttd.org/Signals#Path_Signals
09:01:04  <welshdragon> or, even better: http://wiki.openttd.org/OpenTTD
09:01:09  <Alberth> Zetum: without signals you have no control at all over trains, they will always collide, it is then just a matter of time.
09:01:09  <welshdragon> the whole manual :)
09:01:49  <welshdragon> Alberth: if the trains won't leave the depot then such a thing will never happen
09:01:50  <Zetum> I have read that but I want them to be able to collide. Then I will have to pay for my mistakes.
09:01:54  <Alberth> Zetum: 'wrong' usually means that a train has to wait for another train. Minimizing that is difficult enough

09:02:15  <welshdragon> Zetum: that is not the point of the game
09:02:24  <welshdragon> you try to avoid crashhing
09:02:50  <welshdragon> if a train stops and is 'waiting a free path' then you know something is wrong
09:03:24  <welshdragon> if your trains don't leave the depot and are 'waiting a free path' then you know something is wrong
09:03:41  <Alberth> welshdragon: you can do trickery to persuade them.  :p
09:04:00  <Zetum> The point is to avoid the trains crashing and if they won't crash that's an automatic win.
09:04:06  <welshdragon> Alberth: i don't encourage SPAD's
09:04:09  <Alberth> Zetum: without signals they will always collide given enough time, no matter what you do
09:04:50  <welshdragon> Zetum: that is not something that is usually done in openttd
09:05:22  <Alberth> Zetum: the point is to transport as many goods as you can.
09:05:42  <Alberth> You don't put lives at stake by crashing trains
09:05:51  <welshdragon> if you want destruction, play another game
09:06:01  <CraKinShOt> Or wait for me to code it
09:06:05  <CraKinShOt> :D
09:06:10  <Zetum> Alberth: No, because the game doesn't allow more than one train a track section at a time.
09:06:38  * Alberth thinks that is a good thing

09:07:10  <CraKinShOt> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=45263
09:07:17  <Zetum> In earlier versions of the game the trains would crash without signals.
09:07:18  *** pete is now known as Guest3881
09:07:33  <CraKinShOt> but I need the multi-aspect signals first before I can do it
09:07:43  <CraKinShOt> so thats what I'm focusing on
09:07:46  <Alberth> Zetum: nope, even the original OTTD already refused to have two trains at one track
09:08:07  <Alberth> oh, I meant TTD
09:09:23  <Guest3881> HI. Is it possible to covert a saved multiplayer game in a single player game, so I can overtake the opponents?
09:09:50  <welshdragon> Guest3881: just load it
09:10:02  <Zetum> I know my trains has crashed before. In version 0.5 or something.
09:10:29  <welshdragon> anyway, I am off sailing
09:10:52  <welshdragon> (on a boat)
09:11:29  <Guest3881> welshdragon: no, he I simply load it, I can only buy 75% from a company
09:11:38  <Alberth> Zetum: yes, if you mess up really badly, they will crash
09:12:04  <Zetum> And then I'll need to pay for my mistakes
09:13:47  <Alberth> you are never ever allowed to play OpenTTD again

09:14:38  <CraKinShOt> XD

09:16:44  <Zetum> And realistic.

09:57:55  <CraKinShOt> its not imposible for trains to crash, it can happen if you're playing with the signals with trains on the line
09:58:15  <CraKinShOt> but generally it isn't going to happen unless you allow the trains the pass red signals

10:14:17  <hfox> It just feel more logical if the trains would collide if there are no signals to stop them from doing it.
10:18:43  <CraKinShOt> well thats not entirely true.
10:19:34  <CraKinShOt> The default for a train is not to move
10:19:56  <CraKinShOt> then they are given indicators on how fast they can travel
10:20:40  <CraKinShOt> those are dependent on the track (the block) to be clear

10:22:48  <CraKinShOt> hello
10:23:20  <camorup> i have a question:
10:23:28  <camorup> i start a game in 1920
10:23:38  <camorup> and the "Show building tools when no suitable vehicles are available" option is enabled
10:23:48  <camorup> but i can't build railways
10:24:08  <camorup> it's openttd 0.7.2
10:24:38  <camorup> why can't i build railways?
10:25:10  <camorup> * the build menu is disabled
10:26:15  <CraKinShOt> hmm, looks like that is correct
10:26:55  <CraKinShOt> might be a bug
10:28:00  <CraKinShOt> you can get around it by using UK Renewal Train Set GRF
10:28:08  <Alberth> camorup: I still have trouble understanding why one would want to do this, can you explain?
10:28:28  <Alberth> I can confirm it for trunk, no idea why this happens however
10:29:02  <Rubidium> got to love settings with unclear descriptions
10:29:36  <Alberth> or got to love weird settings :)
10:29:46  <Rubidium> IIRC it was meant to disable the building tools when the number of vehicles you could build of a given type was 0
10:29:47  *** fjb [~frank@p5485EA9C.dip.t-dialin.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
10:31:38  <camorup> well, i could build some infrastructure already
10:32:11  <Rubidium> it probably got broken some time later on and you're the first to notice it, which shows how often it is actually used
10:32:12  <camorup> and when the trains get available i can use them immediately
10:32:54  <camorup> hmm, it's not that important

13:00:03  <[VK]> hi only a question: Do I need the original Transport Tycoon to Install OTTD?
13:01:03  <Victoria> Nope!
13:02:05  <Victoria> Actually, I'm dead wrong.
13:02:10  <Alberth> yep, the data files are used, which you must own
13:02:14  <Victoria> That's what I get for talking to people first thing in the morning.
13:02:20  <Victoria> http://wiki.openttd.org/Installation_FAQ
13:03:05  <[VK]> ok thanks for the link
13:03:54  * Alberth wonders how obvious a link must be in order to get people to find it themselves
13:04:39  <Victoria> There is this as a workaround, which I believe is what I did. http://wiki.openttd.org/OpenGFX_Readme
13:05:18  <[VK]> I found the Wiki, but there I havent found something about installation.
13:05:31  <[VK]> So I click on the IRC ...
13:06:35  <Alberth> OpenGFX is not yet completed. Also you don't have sound then, since OpenSFX is not complete either.

14:58:48  <Alberth> sulai: integers
14:59:35  <Alberth> sulai: different CPU architectures have different rounding policies, so calculations have different answers at different machines.
15:00:42  <sulai> Alberth thanks for explaining :)
15:00:44  <sulai> too bad there is no pow() for integers...
15:01:40  <Alberth> sulai: for integer powers, multiply with itself a few times
15:03:36  <sulai> I'm just pleased with the support in here ^^
15:05:29  <Eddi|zuHause> sulai: ever heard of the "square and muliply" algorithm?
15:07:08  <sulai> This must be something remarkable ;)
15:07:24  <Eddi|zuHause> sulai: if you take the binary representation of the exponent, for each bit you square the input, and if the bit is 1, you multiply it again
15:09:06  <Eddi|zuHause> so if you want to calculate 15^13, you take the bit representation of 13, which is 1101
15:09:24  <Eddi|zuHause> you start with the result 1, and take the highest digit of the exponent
15:09:54  <Eddi|zuHause> you square the current result, and because the bit is set, you multiply with the base, so 1*2*15=15
15:10:58  <Eddi|zuHause> next digit is also set, so you square the result and multiply again, 15^2*15 = 3375
15:11:41  <Eddi|zuHause> next digit is not set, so you only square, 3375^2 = 11390625
15:12:02  <Eddi|zuHause> next digit is set, so you square and multiply, 11390625^2*15 = ...
15:13:01  <Eddi|zuHause> simple recursive function, runtime is O(log(n)), where n is the exponent
15:15:14  <sulai> sounds like it won't break multiplayer synchronisation
15:15:33  <Alberth> as long as the integer does not overflow :)
15:16:03  <sulai> as long as integer has the same bit size on every machine
15:16:07  <Eddi|zuHause> sqam(base, ext) { if (ext==0) return 1; result=sqam(base, ext >> 1); result*=result; if (ext & 1) result*=base; return result; }

15:18:18  <Alberth> sulai: if 'exp' is a constant, you can write a sequence of multiplications
15:19:00  <Alberth> which is basically one case of the general solution of Eddi|zuHause
15:19:01  <sulai> Alberth, Eddi, thank you very much for support! My problem is solved. =)
15:19:27  <Eddi|zuHause> sulai: i don't know what you're trying to do, but most likely your exponents have to be small, otherwise it overflows very fast
15:19:55  <sulai> Eddi: this sounds good, how about adding int64 pow(int, int) to ottd? ;)
15:20:26  <Alberth> we probably don't need it. Why do you need it?
15:20:56  <Eddi|zuHause> sulai: if you need it, you can implement it yourself...
15:21:14  <Eddi|zuHause> it's one of the most basic algorithms you learn in computer science...
15:21:54  <Alberth> sulai: we do have plenty routines for doing 2^x, which a computer can do very fast
15:23:40  <Eddi|zuHause> sulai: and if you want to be remotely overflow safe, you'd need at least "int256 pow(int32, int8)"
15:24:20  <Eddi|zuHause> (as 32*8 = 256)

15:40:44  <Eddi|zuHause> have you checked if this function is also called when simply building a roadstop?
15:41:56  <sulai> This patch only affects roads that have 2 connected roads as neighbour
15:42:40  <sulai> but good hint, eddi: I need to check deleting of road-stop-roads
15:42:54  <Eddi|zuHause> you may place drive through road stops on town owned roads
15:43:01  <Eddi|zuHause> not sure if that changes the owner
15:43:16  <sulai> hm good thought
15:43:19  <glx> doesn't change the road owner IIRC
15:43:45  <sulai> I hope it doesn't delete any road in the process of building the road stop
15:44:21  <Eddi|zuHause> i don't know either, that's why i asked if you checked that ;)
15:45:02  <Eddi|zuHause> "UINT_MAX == bypass_length" <<- imho these checks are backwards...
15:45:31  <Eddi|zuHause> you generally check "variable == value"

15:53:17  <Eddi|zuHause> +			+ bypass_length*bypass_length*bypass_length * _price.clear_bridge);
15:53:25  <Eddi|zuHause> could use some distributivity
15:53:38  <Eddi|zuHause> and you don't think n^3 might be a little extreme?
15:56:04  <sulai> eddi: thanks for the tip @road stops -- they cause an assertion
15:56:38  <Eddi|zuHause> /* determine src and dest tile of the bypass */ <- this looks fishy, but i can't tell why...
15:57:16  <sulai> What do you mean by "distributivity"?
15:57:33  <Eddi|zuHause> a*c+b*c = (a+b)*c
15:58:39  <Eddi|zuHause> that's called the law of distributivity
15:58:54  <Eddi|zuHause> (my translation might be slightly off)
15:59:22  <Alberth> of '*' over '+'
16:00:14  <sulai> n^3 is a lot of money, but since money doesn't matter at some point of the game I think it's okay. 2x2 and 3x3 grid towns alow removal of roads for 20k-30k -- long bridges may cost up to 2 million
16:00:25  <Eddi|zuHause> yeah, there exist some for other operators, too. '&&' and '||', and more funnily '||' over '&&' ;)
16:01:30  <Eddi|zuHause> sulai: how does your "detour" calculation work on drag-and-drop removal? if i have a "highway" of 200 tiles length, and want to remove one full lane, the detour is 2 tiles, not 400 tiles
16:01:48  <Eddi|zuHause> length of detour - length of removed road

16:03:37  <Eddi|zuHause> and what if you remove more than two trackbits? i.e. a road crossing?
16:04:15  <Eddi|zuHause> if the town had an 8-shape, those would partition it
16:06:24  <Eddi|zuHause> and you can abuse the detour calculation by building a short detour, remove the road, then remove the detour again
16:07:11  <Eddi|zuHause> the idea is neat, but i can't see the concept working well
16:07:40  <sulai> @crossings: real crossings (that have more than 2 connected neighbor roads) are not allowed to delete by the town authority. Only roads with 2 neighbours are allowed to delete if money and rating are sufficient
16:08:07  <sulai> but you may reduce any road construction to a 2-neighbor-road
16:08:31  <sulai> while only being able to delete one- and two-neighbor-roads
16:08:32  <Eddi|zuHause> really? i have never noticed that it refuses those
16:08:41  <Rubidium> sulai: does it count non-town-owned roads too? Cause if it does one can easily remove all roads of a town with your patch
16:09:32  <sulai> eddi: this is added by the patch -- normal behavior is to either only allow one-neighbour-roads to delete; or to delete any road if the patch setting is set
16:10:28  <sulai> Rubidium: only deletion of town owned roads is charged, but for bypassing, any road is counted -- that way the player may provide a bypass
16:11:49  <Rubidium> and as such the user may remove all roads
16:12:10  <Eddi|zuHause> it would make more sense to enforce the detour-restriction for removing any roads, even if they are yours
16:12:22  <sulai> >> and you can abuse the detour calculation by building a short detour, remove the road, then remove the detour again
16:12:24  <sulai> this is possible. The patch *encourages* the player to consider bypasses. It does not - and could not - enforce it.

22:03:28  <Redirect_Left> Hi, quick question, are these ships sposed to have this much capacity?
22:03:31  <Redirect_Left> it Seems way over the top
22:03:32  <Redirect_Left> http://files.uploadffs.com/5/0120531d/Tanington_Transport_10th_Dec_2176.png
22:03:54  <Redirect_Left> (Also bear in mind I had to cheat to get the oil field to produce that much, so it didn't take years to fill it)
22:04:13  <Redirect_Left> Using OpenTTD 0.7.3 RC2.
22:04:19  <Rubidium> probably due some NewGRF
22:04:24  <Redirect_Left> Hmm.
22:04:31  <Redirect_Left> I haven't got any that alter capacities of ships, though.
22:04:41  <PeterT> yes you do
22:04:46  <PeterT> GRF by bilbo
22:04:50  <PeterT> "Big Ships"
22:05:25  <Rubidium> well, it doesn't automagically get such capacities either
22:06:07  <Redirect_Left> hmm, actually apparantly I do have a GRF about ships
22:06:09  <Redirect_Left> didn't notice I had.
22:06:58  <PeterT> does it crash if you remove it in-game?
22:07:15  <Redirect_Left> No.
22:07:19  <Redirect_Left> I've just removed it ingame.
22:07:22  <Redirect_Left> the capacities are the same.
22:07:27  <Redirect_Left> I'll load a new game without it and see.
22:07:51  * Rubidium says something about big red warning that removing NewGRFs isn't quite supported
22:09:03  <PeterT> big? warning? red? what?
22:09:07  <PeterT> *click*
22:09:11  *** lobstar is now known as lobster
22:09:16  <Redirect_Left> Rubidium: Well, it's so far never crashed me :p
22:09:42  <Redirect_Left> hmm, I started a new one, and that big ship isn't even in the game.
22:09:52  <Redirect_Left> So it must have been added by that GRF.
22:10:28  <Redirect_Left> Hmm
22:10:38  <Redirect_Left> re-loaded the old save with it, GRF gone.
22:10:49  <Redirect_Left> The big ships are still in it, and have the 22 mil capacity.
22:10:53  <Redirect_Left> but any new ones have the 22K.
22:11:06  <Redirect_Left> Any idea how I can refresh the old ones with the GRF back to their defaults, Rubidium / PeterT?
22:11:40  <Rubidium> short answer: not
22:11:51  <Rubidium> long answer: you could, but... lots of preconditions
22:11:53  <Redirect_Left> Well, that implies there is a long answer where it is possible.
22:12:04  <PeterT> is the save game really worth ti?
22:12:06  <Redirect_Left> Well, I got the entire night to figure it out?
22:12:09  <Redirect_Left> PeterT: No, not really.
22:12:16  <Redirect_Left> I'm waiting to see how long it takes to do it.
22:12:23  <PeterT> Well, Rubidium doesn't
22:12:29  <Rubidium> you could mess with the code to update all vehicles with 22 mil capacity to 22k
22:12:43  <Redirect_Left> Eh.
22:12:45  <Redirect_Left> I'll skip that :p
22:12:52  <PeterT> or...
22:12:54  <PeterT> wait
22:13:06  <Redirect_Left> Also, why do ferries, no matter how distant apart you set them, they always end up side by side simultaneous after a while?
22:13:10  <Rubidium> autoreplace/autorenew *might* do the trick
22:13:10  <PeterT> you could auto-update the boats to a pax boat, then back to a regular oil boat
22:13:12  <Redirect_Left> (well, hovercraft currently)
22:13:27  <Redirect_Left> Rubidium: Ah, i'll try autoreplace, they're due replacing anyway
22:13:41  <PeterT> this is awkward, because rubidium can't see me
22:13:48  * Redirect_Left toggles go to depot with breakdowns off on and watches all his 200 buses suddenly rush.
22:13:49  <Rubidium> because 1 captain has a break, then the second enters and they leave simultaniously

22:14:52  <Rubidium> time tables?
22:14:54  <Redirect_Left> It's rather annoying trying to keep proper flowing when they just end up tugging each other.
22:14:59  <Redirect_Left> Rubidium: how do i do that?
22:15:04  <Redirect_Left> Is that even in default OpenTTD 0.7.2?
22:15:12  <Xaroth> check the route table?

22:15:32  <Rubidium> if the orders window has a button 'timetable' it probably has
22:15:52  <Redirect_Left> ah, I see it.
22:15:54  <Redirect_Left> never noticed it
22:16:08  <Rubidium> oh, it's only there for 1.5 years (in stable releases)
22:16:13  <Xaroth> heh
22:16:21  <Xaroth> just not a commonly used feature
22:16:21  <Rubidium> damn... I shouldn't tell lies
22:16:31  <Rubidium> 1.5 years - about 3 days
22:17:18  <Redirect_Left> lol at time in days.
22:17:31  * Redirect_Left typed in 35 expecting it to be minutes.
22:17:36  <Redirect_Left> Comes up travelling for 35 days.
22:17:42  <Redirect_Left> Wow, they're gonna be pissed off passengers :p
22:17:57  <PeterT> they'll get over it
22:18:10  <Redirect_Left> Actually, that'd be an interesting feature.
22:18:18  <Redirect_Left> Having passengers that get annoyed over delays :p
22:18:27  <PeterT> is there such a thing as you paying the passengers for delays?
22:18:38  <PeterT> eg -
22:18:42  <Redirect_Left> Well, where I live, companies give refunds if they're stupidly late.
22:18:51  <PeterT> :)
22:19:00  <Redirect_Left> (the train, not the passengers being late)
22:22:05  <Redirect_Left> okay, last question.

22:22:25  <Rubidium> answer: maybe
22:22:31  <Redirect_Left> If I have a station of 3 platforms, and I have 3 trains that collect GOODS, is there any way to limit how many of a type of train is in a station.
22:22:46  <glx> waypoints
22:22:48  <Redirect_Left> So the station won't get jammed with 3 goods trains, so no oil trains can actually go in and deliver stuff to turn into goods.
22:22:59  <Redirect_Left> Thus, jamming up the entire network.
22:23:03  <Xaroth> short answer: yes, long answer: it'll take QUITE a while :P
22:23:14  <Redirect_Left> Hmm.
22:23:18  <Redirect_Left> I don't quite follow?
22:23:28  <Redirect_Left> Sorry, I've only recently started making serious attempts to do networks.
22:23:32  <Redirect_Left> not stupid point to points :(
22:23:50  <glx> your network must direct gold trains to only 2 platforms
22:24:14  <Rubidium> make 2 entrances to the station. One of the entrances only reaches 2 of the platform, other all. Then direct the goods trains over the entrance that only reaches 2 platforms using a waypoint
22:25:11  <glx> another solution is to have drop stations and pickup stations
22:25:55  <Redirect_Left> hmm
22:26:01  <Redirect_Left> Drop / pickup seems easier.
22:26:16  <PeterT> anyone with Office 07?
22:26:38  <Redirect_Left> I mean currently, it doesn't overly bother me, as I currently have ships serving the oil refinery, so at some point, a ship will turn up with it's bugged 22 million and give it enough goods to last until the next pig flies over.
22:26:46  <Redirect_Left> But if I didn't have that, it'd be jammed up :|
22:27:07  <Xaroth> PeterT: hm?
22:27:21  <PeterT> Is there a way to view corrections?
22:27:29  <Xaroth> spell checker button?
22:27:33  <Rubidium> not really, because if there's a huge amount on the platform it decays quite rapidly
22:27:38  <Xaroth> or the autocorrections?
22:27:48  <PeterT> yes ^
22:27:50  <PeterT> how?
22:27:54  <PeterT> oh, wait
22:27:56  <Xaroth> autocorrections, dunno
22:27:56  <PeterT> sorry

22:29:43  <PeterT> which?
22:29:44  <Redirect_Left> Xaroth: wtf.
22:29:53  <PeterT> maybe there are 5 servers?
22:29:58  <Xaroth> there aren't
22:30:06  <Rubidium> most cheats were implemented for debugging purposes
22:30:11  <Xaroth> identical clients, identical responses, different ports
