08:52:32  <andythenorth> morning
09:04:21  <andythenorth> hovercraft should *really* be combined ships and RVs :o
09:04:52  <andythenorth> new vehicle type: 'ground effect'.  Or perhaps, 'amphibious'
09:07:07  <peter1138> how about, no?
09:10:22  <andythenorth> hurr hurr, as they say
09:16:55  <dih> anybody here familiar with ubuntu and backporting? :-p
09:21:38  <Rubidium> why would you want to become familiar with that?

09:35:51  <peter1138> that facebook thread is... *boggle*
09:39:55  <andythenorth> peter1138: ha ha, someone else has just asked about hovercraft on land (in the FISH dev thread)
09:39:58  <andythenorth> so it's not just me :)
09:40:53  <andythenorth> you want this travelling in your OTTD towns, right?  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zubr_class_LCAC
09:58:04  <dih> i seem to have issues packporting from lucid to hardy :-D
09:58:09  <dih> using prevu
09:58:22  <Noldo> what are you backporting?
09:58:22  <dih> i want php5.3 in hardy
09:58:37  <dih> backporting from lucid to karmic seems to be working
09:58:46  <Noldo> what was your process?
09:58:46  <dih> i could try to backport the backport :-D
09:59:01  <dih> DIST=hardy prevu-nomangle *.dsc
09:59:11  <dih> i downloaded the php5.3 dsc orig and diff files
09:59:30  <dih> (as downloading on the fly - everytime - took too long)
10:00:02  <peter1138> pfft, silly ubuntu users
10:00:04  <dih> there were a bunch of issues in dependencies, and i actually hoped prevu would backport them automatically
10:00:23  <dih> peter1138: not 'user' ;-)
10:01:13  <peter1138> pfft, silly ubuntu

11:31:59  <andythenorth> probably not

11:36:05  <andythenorth> yup
11:39:42  <fonsinchen> argh! callbacks for industry acceptance. OMG, I haven't thought of that.
11:40:26  <fonsinchen> In principle there could be an industry that, upon construction doesn't accept any cargo, and at some later point in time starts accepting various things, right?
11:40:57  <fonsinchen> so my global acceptance calculation is broken :(
11:42:16  <Noldo> it's not broken, it just doesn't support industries like that
11:43:47  <fonsinchen> I shouldn't create artificial limitations, though ...
11:47:27  <fonsinchen> Now I remember why I had implemented the global acceptance as moving average inside the tile loop first. I should be able to dig that out again ...
11:55:43  <andythenorth> fonsinchen: yes there could be an industry that does what you describe - or the other way round (stops accepting after a certain date)
11:58:47  <Noldo> or only accepts anything in the summer months?

12:53:44  <Eddi|zuHause> it's an interesting idea, the construction site must be supplied with supplies for two years, before it starts producing electricity. but then you are back to the problem of: what exactly is the use of electricity?
12:54:40  <dih> Eddi|zuHause: you could do that with all industries :-P
12:55:01  <dih> so starting a game with no industries would be very interesting....
12:55:18  <__ln__> electricity could be used to power a huge propeller which generates wind for windmills.

13:00:04  <fonsinchen> electricity could be required for electric engines to be available
13:00:16  <fonsinchen> but I don't know if that's possible with newgrf
13:00:33  <dih> then you would not want to service the powerplant with an electric train
13:00:45  <dih> just in case one or the other breaks down
13:00:55  <fonsinchen> true, you'd use a diesel train for that.
13:01:08  <dih> but you could allow an ufo to land on your powerplant
13:01:11  <dih> :-P
13:01:29  <dih> "go find a new source of electricity"
13:01:51  <__ln__> availability of diesel could depend on oil wells
13:02:55  <fonsinchen> maybe electric/diesel/steam engines can have cheaper running costs if you provide electricity/oil/coal
13:03:11  <fonsinchen> or you could make them run slower if you don't
13:03:54  <fonsinchen> but again, I don't know if anything of that is possible within newgrf. I suspect not.
13:05:06  <Eddi|zuHause> what exactly is TIM?

13:05:54  <Eddi|zuHause> never heard about that...

13:08:47  <fonsinchen> Could become spammy, though.

13:55:50  <andythenorth> 1/3 of a ton of coal to power one lightbulb for a year?

13:56:42  <Eddi|zuHause> you don't have the lights running the entire day, though...
13:57:48  <andythenorth> I have the laptop running the entire day though :o
13:58:09  <Eddi|zuHause> assuming a light runs 3 of 24 hours, that's 1/24 ton of coal
13:58:33  <Rubidium> for a 100 watt lamp; the dieing kind
13:58:45  * andythenorth ponders solar panels
13:59:05  <fonsinchen> coal by itself doesn't contain thermal energy, though. It contains chemical energy. Thermal energy would mean the coal is warmer than its surroundings.
13:59:10  * fonsinchen nitpicks
13:59:47  * andythenorth 39 degrees C on our solar thermal heating panel today
14:00:01  <andythenorth> 'free free free'.  except the cost of the panel :|
14:00:02  <Eddi|zuHause> also, they count that the not-converted heat energy isn't used otherwise, while usually it's used for heating...
14:00:17  <Eddi|zuHause> so the figure is highly questionable...
14:00:39  <andythenorth> so for power plants, shall I just make a number up :_
14:00:43  <andythenorth> ?
14:01:53  <fonsinchen> for each ton of coal you deliver to a power plant you could cut a tree somewhere and make the town it belongs to a little angry
14:02:05  <peter1138> how much does a thermal heating panel cost anyway?
14:02:15  <peter1138> it's just a bunch of tubes, n'est pas?
14:02:39  <Eddi|zuHause> you can build one yourself
14:03:11  <andythenorth> peter1138: think it was about £7k fitted with a heating system (tank, regulators etc)
14:03:15  <Eddi|zuHause> take a wood box, paint it black, add plexiglass, and put a tube in it
14:03:18  <fonsinchen> I've actually done that. It was a pain though and it only worked on very hot days
14:03:34  <fonsinchen> (and it was connected to a shower, which made it completely pointless)
14:04:57  <Eddi|zuHause> commercially sold heating panels probably refinance themselves in about 20-30 years

16:43:39  <andythenorth> Yexo: thanks.  Does cargo have to be transported, or just produced?
16:43:49  <Yexo> just produced
16:44:38  <Eddi|zuHause> is that why power stations have the no-closure flag?

16:45:40  <andythenorth> hmm
16:45:44  <Yexo> power plants are not the only industry that doesn't close though, same goes for banks, the water tower and the toy shop
16:46:14  <andythenorth> I've started reading the code, but I can't make sense of it yet
16:46:40  <andythenorth> I need to decide whether to provide custom closure code in FIRS (= more work)
16:47:15  <andythenorth> all I'd do is prevent secondary industry closure for five years if cargo is delivered.  Nearly the same as what the game appears to do anyway.
16:49:47  <Yexo> if you make sure the industry produces "something" every time cargo is delivered then it's the same as the game does already
16:49:58  <andythenorth> hmm
16:50:07  * andythenorth is glum about player bug reports

16:50:42  <andythenorth> Release a stable version!  Then see what reproducible bug reports turn up :)

16:54:21  <Yexo> Eddi|zuHause: no idea about that, but in OpenTTD they are not

18:03:56  <fjb> Served
18:04:20  <andythenorth> If Farm Supplies are not delivered, the game just uses the built in production change behaviour....that can close the industry if service is not good enough I guess
18:04:29  <andythenorth> I didn't want to screw around with that - one step too far...
18:04:53  <andythenorth> If Farm Supplies are regularly delivered, the built-in production change behaviour is turned off.

18:55:49  <andythenorth> You guys are usually pretty good at helping me with industry window texts...I need some help for the power station.  I'll explain what it does
18:56:04  <andythenorth> - accepts coal or fuel oil.  Either or both can be supplied
18:56:25  <andythenorth> - reserves are held to keep generating if nothing is delivered
18:56:39  <andythenorth> - reserves last at least five years, during which there is no chance of closure
18:56:55  <andythenorth> - after five years reserves may run out and the industry may close
18:57:03  <andythenorth> there is no production
18:57:17  <andythenorth> I don't want to mention electricity, it will confuse players

20:34:20  <frosch123> more like 0x1000....00000...0000 - 6

23:38:59  <andythenorth> the only thing that bothers me about the tanker refit is that it should cost more than a 'normal' refit
