00:04:54  <Eddi|zuHause> <Wolf01> I'm thinking about restart developing daylength, this time I would like to separate the concept of tick based  operations and date <<-- one of the problematic parts of the last daylength patch (by SpComb) was that also some periodic updates in the tileloop (i.e. every 256 ticks) need to be scaled by daylength, but they don't depend on DAY_TICKS, so they are not easily identified
00:05:26  *** nicfer [~nicfer@190.50.62.161] has joined #openttd
00:05:27  <Wolf01> yeah, I know the problem
00:06:47  <Eddi|zuHause> for example ECS had huge problems with that, because suddenly there are more 256-ticks industry callbacks per month than it expects
00:08:00  <Eddi|zuHause> and the real problem is that every "daylength developer" starts from scratch every time, instead of building on the experience of the previous developer
00:08:15  <Eddi|zuHause> so 90% of the problems are repeated
00:08:48  <Eddi|zuHause> and nothing sustainable comes out of it. the developer eventually loses interest and the patch falls apart with 0% of it being trunk-worthy
00:09:47  <Wolf01> every implementation I saw was the same, and all stopped at the same point of mine, the same exact problem
00:10:22  <Eddi|zuHause> well, there was also pavel's patch, which followed a different approach.
00:10:33  <Eddi|zuHause> but it just meant it caused other problems...
00:11:00  <Wolf01> that's why I want to take another approach too
00:12:02  <Wolf01> but I can't figure how to make it work really, every little thing has a different behavior when I think about its contest

00:12:59  <Wolf01> I didn't write a line of code, I'm only thinking about what needs a change
00:13:44  *** Zuu [~Zuu@h-114-141.A98.priv.bahnhof.se] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
00:14:26  <Wolf01> I'm forced to take the same path of my last implementation and improve it, but it is limited
00:14:38  <Wolf01> and I well know it
00:16:01  <Eddi|zuHause> imho, the approach should be getting as many of the day vs tick separation into trunk without actually changing any daylength
00:16:03  <Wolf01> at first I need to find a way to "fix" the discrepancy of the running costs declared on the grf (clearly year based and calculated with ticks) and ingame running costs with daylength multiplier
00:16:27  <Wolf01> that is the main approach I would take, indeed
00:17:31  <Eddi|zuHause> one of the things that daylength needs is fractional money
00:17:55  <Eddi|zuHause> so you can lower delivery rates, and keep yearly payments the same
00:18:37  <Wolf01> but then you need more time to earn enough money
00:18:51  <Eddi|zuHause> yes
00:19:43  <Wolf01> it's like to slower trains instead making the time flowing slower
00:21:06  <Wolf01> the *main* problem with daylenght is that the multiplier acts like the airplane speed factor
00:21:31  <Eddi|zuHause> not really. currently, the daylength actually increases your income, since the cargo is enroute for shorter time
00:21:52  <Wolf01> but increases running costs too
00:22:14  <Eddi|zuHause> no, running cost per real time stays the same
00:22:22  <Eddi|zuHause> income per real time increases
00:22:38  <Wolf01> not in my one, it was scaled with all other things
00:22:48  <Eddi|zuHause> cargo that is transported over the same distance at the same speed takes less days
00:23:01  <Eddi|zuHause> and thus pays more
00:23:08  <Wolf01> the problem I found is that there is some discrepancy about expenses and income
00:23:58  <Wolf01> I say: 1x 10 income and 8 expense -> 32x 500 income and 100 expense
00:24:21  <Eddi|zuHause> per game time, the income increases doubly. once because you arrive more often, and once because it takes less time
00:24:57  <Wolf01> yes, it should be that
00:25:38  <Eddi|zuHause> in one year at daylength 4, you earn more than in 4 years at daylength 1
00:25:59  <Wolf01> yes that was the problem
00:26:18  <Wolf01> I wasn't able to figure it out
00:28:08  <Wolf01> I would start by finding all *time related* functions and separate them fron *tick based* functions
00:28:53  <Wolf01> so "day", "month" or "year" must be the same at daylength 1x or 32x or 100x
00:30:48  <Wolf01> but I think this work will end up into one of the previous implementations
00:31:12  <Wolf01> it's too easy to fall in the same traps
00:37:22  <Eddi|zuHause> sometimes it's impossible to decide that, because different people have different opinion
00:37:42  <Eddi|zuHause> like here with the running cost. i say, it should be year based, but you say it should be tick based
00:45:15  <Wolf01> I think is better the whole economy stays in ticks and only the representation of the values should be changed, like running costs monthly (yearly/12*multiplier to lower the value a bit) etc, but then we'll end up with a consistent difference from the grf values

00:49:02  <Wolf01> or we can directly change the economy rules and base them on the time instead of ticks, but I don't know how to handle some parts where it should be both ticks and time

07:05:31  <Priski> only reverse worked
07:07:00  <Priski> some new cars just can't handle winter :/
07:07:03  <Rubidium> thus, never park your car and put it in reverse :)
07:08:01  <Priski> stupid part was that it was plugged in heater all night and still gears would not work

07:11:07  <Priski> some people do the opposite, and some reason it pisses me off
07:11:10  <Rubidium> handbrakes freeze as well during winter
07:11:33  <Priski> thats true but never have yet encountered that
07:12:39  <Priski> but once I did start car when gear was on and got a nasty suprise when I lifted foot from clutch
07:14:34  <Priski> I have never in my life drove a car with automatic gearbox so I don't know how they handle winter
07:15:03  <Priski> I keep my prejudices on that issue :)

10:48:31  <greywall> i got a ton load of ships transfering oil to a station where trains pick it up, i noticed that when there is no train directly wiaitng for the oil to load, the oil disappears 10,000 units per 1/2 a second whats up with that?
10:49:20  <Rubidium> there are some limitations on the amount of cargo that can be stored in a station

10:49:31  <Wolf01> workers stole your oil
10:49:42  <Rubidium> furthermore the lower station ratings are, the faster good "perish"
10:49:45  <greywall> ughmmm its only max reaching 700,000 oil
10:49:55  <greywall> because the rest just goes down the drain
10:49:59  <greywall> its seeping out so fast
10:49:59  <SmatZ> it happens with all cargos
10:50:01  <Rubidium> then it's the low station rating
10:50:03  <SmatZ> it just rots :P
10:50:09  <greywall> the rating for oil is 70%
10:50:21  <greywall> i know how cargo disappears
10:50:24  <greywall> and this isn't it
10:50:31  <greywall> this is 20,000 oils barrels per second
10:50:36  <greywall> that's crazy fast
10:50:40  <Wolf01> You might need at least one train waiting or you'll loose cargo
10:50:57  <greywall> even if the train is waiting i think it still disappears
10:51:01  <Rubidium> then let us stop guessing and provide an actual case
10:51:01  <greywall> very fast
10:51:13  <greywall> i just don't notice it as bad because the train is also loading
10:51:14  <Wolf01> consider that 20,000 oil barrels are like 20tonnes, so not that fast
10:52:02  <greywall> wait sorry
10:52:04  <greywall> its faster
10:52:09  <greywall> i think its 40K barrels
10:53:00  <greywall> 2-3 ships just finished unloading and b ythe time they were done, there was nothing left at the station even though there is no train picking it up because the train left some 20 seconds earlier before the ships started transfering cargo
10:54:15  <greywall> it requires 2 ships unloading simoltaneously in order to keep the rate of losing cargo at 0, meaning no cargo will add or be stolen
10:54:49  <greywall> and it also seems like the faster ships unload the faster cargo disappears
10:54:50  <Wolf01> raise the station's ratings
10:54:58  <greywall> i just saw 500K barrels disappear within 3 seconds
10:54:59  <greywall> i swear
10:55:11  <greywall> station's raitings is 56%
10:55:37  <greywall> it was 70-80+% and it was still doing it
10:55:40  <greywall> that badly!
10:55:52  <greywall> loosing so much cargo ^
10:56:46  <Rubidium> oh for the... provide an actual case we can look at so we can tell you what is going on...
10:57:40  <Alberth> I think there is a sort of time-out limit, and since all your oil arrives at the same time (by ship), it also reaches the limit at the same time
10:57:41  <Wolf01> if tiles start to disappear around the station, you might found the black-hole case
10:57:50  <Wolf01> *might have
10:58:13  <Alberth> nice disaster :)
10:59:08  <Wolf01> I was thinking to area effect disasters, like oil flood, blizzard, rain flooding
10:59:16  <Wolf01> just to stop all activities in the affected area
11:00:38  <Wolf01> oil flood happens around docks and oil wells, will stop ships and drop your ratings
11:00:51  <greywall> well then the oil expiration date is about 1 day
11:01:02  <greywall> because after a ship is finished unloading
11:01:13  <Terkhen> what is the oil rating?
11:01:14  <greywall> it's gone within a second or two after
11:01:17  <greywall> HIGH
11:01:19  <greywall> ffs
11:01:26  <Rubidium> oh... you seem to not get what I'm after, are you?
11:01:27  <Terkhen> hwo high?
11:01:30  <greywall> 50%, 70, 80%
11:01:30  <Terkhen> how*
11:02:30  <Alberth> Wolf01: dev_null42 also seems to have disaster ideas, see FS#4286. I don't see the direction of it though.

11:15:22  <greywall> this is weird
11:15:26  <greywall> on the receiving end
11:15:32  <greywall> i have an oil refinery
11:15:44  <greywall> when building the station it says accepts oil
11:15:57  <greywall> but when i look at the station it just stores it on site
11:16:00  <greywall> and doesn't pay out
11:16:07  <Wolf01> don't use unload
11:16:12  <greywall> i've tried all kinds of options on the unloading
11:16:46  <greywall> if i don't use unload, then it just arrives at the station checks, and heads back without unloading
11:16:56  <Wolf01> use only "go-to station" trains must unload automatically if the stations accepts that cargo
11:17:25  <Wolf01> maybe the refinery stockpile is full
11:18:11  <greywall> 0 goods processed

11:55:57  <Zuu> Why does C++ templates need to be so tricky to use in class hirarchies?
11:55:59  <Alberth> luckily it happens only once a year
11:56:17  <Alberth> C++ templates tricky?
11:56:52  <Zuu> I can't seem to specify that the template type is a child class of some other class.
11:57:12  <Zuu> So the compiler complains on my typecasts from this base class to the tempalte class.
11:58:07  <Zuu> Eg. template<class T : public Object>
11:58:30  <Zuu> and then cast an Object to/from T
11:58:56  <Alberth> afaik you don't need to specify that, as template expansion happens only when you instantiate with a concrete class
12:01:33  <Zuu> MSVC seem to differ. Though I have lots of other errors to fix so it could be that I'm wrong.
12:04:31  <Alberth> MS has not problems mutulating C++ to fit its engine

13:01:02  <Rubidium> you can probably do it relatively easy, but...
13:01:36  <Rubidium> you have to figure out how to build tunnels when there is only one tile raised, i.e. which direction should it go to?

13:03:03  <Eddi|zuHause> i.e. depending on the position within the tile?
13:04:26  <Rubidium> then you'd definitely need to have some way of showing the direction of the tunnel to get a clue where to look for the other entrance
13:06:51  <planetmaker> Alberth: his suggestion was to allow them also on oblique tiles, right? I think that's far more difficult (and requires far more graphics work)
13:07:00  <Alberth> I was just thinking to add some more graphics, with an extended tunnel tube
13:07:03  <planetmaker> while my mock-up should be pretty straight forward
13:08:21  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: i think simple foundations are a better approach... saves trouble with things like "enhanced" tunnelheads

14:02:43  <PoopDragon> OTTD portable exists, so for those suffering NSISDL AV conflicts, OTTD dload page should offer a Portable version (which has all three base packages in)
14:04:35  <PoopDragon> I, myself, always have this Nullsoft Scriptable Install System problem.
14:06:23  <planetmaker> aha...
14:06:58  <PoopDragon> or, when compiling 1.06, you could possibly look at sc2.sf.net
14:07:13  *** retro [~retro@125.151.broadband3.iol.cz] has joined #openttd
14:07:26  <PoopDragon> there you can find a NSIS script with "source page"

14:08:11  <planetmaker> and submit that to our bug tracker
14:08:45  <PoopDragon> I am not a coder. You could add this to "low priority" part of "to-do" list.

14:14:11  <Ammler> PoopDragon: is that really portable? /me thinks, they should rename it to WindowsOnlyApp
14:15:28  <Ammler> or it PortableApp a kind of live cd?
14:15:29  <CIA-2> OpenTTD: alberth * r21607 /trunk/src/viewport.cpp: -Codechange: Be more robust against having extra bits in HighLightStyle vars.
14:15:50  <Ammler> is*
14:17:14  <PoopDragon> PortableApps.com is just a wrapper
14:17:45  <PoopDragon> that supplies wrong folder variables like %appdata% to make it portable
14:17:50  <Ammler> yes, looks quite "unportable"
14:18:19  <PoopDragon> but it's the Windows version's NSIS that causes the package dload problem
14:19:07  <Ammler> PoopDragon: then just use the zip version, that is btw. already portable without any wrapper
14:19:42  <Ammler> (copy the different openttd binaries from the different os)
14:19:45  <PoopDragon> zip version contains NO opengfx
14:19:58  <Ammler> add those to data
14:20:07  <PoopDragon> and Windows installer fails to dload opengfx
14:20:20  <Ammler> you mean the installer from openttd.org?
14:20:26  <PoopDragon> yea
14:21:23  <PoopDragon> so you need to either change the download plugin, or offer a link to portableapps.com version
14:21:57  <Ammler> well, you could report your installation troubles to bugs.openttd.org then
14:22:00  <planetmaker> [15:20]	<PoopDragon>	and Windows installer fails to dload opengfx <-- hu? Which?
14:22:57  <PoopDragon> http://binaries.openttd.org/releases/1.0.5/openttd-1.0.5-windows-win32.exe
14:24:46  <CIA-2> OpenTTD: alberth * r21608 /trunk/src/ (4 files): -Codechange: Move diagnonal rectangle dragging detection completely to tile highlighting.
14:25:07  <Rubidium> the downloading of opengfx by the installer works fine for me
14:25:30  <PoopDragon> it's solely AV clogging sockets
14:26:11  <Rubidium> then it's the AV that's causing problems; not something we can easily work around
14:26:34  <PoopDragon> so, when one selects to download "windows" version, 3 versions should be offered: installer, zip, and offline installer (the one from portableapps.com)
14:26:42  <Rubidium> and we have explicitly chosen not to put OpenGFX/OpenSFX/OpenMSX in the binary packages
14:27:02  <planetmaker> yeah. Easily also downloaded.
14:27:13  <Rubidium> as in 75% of the cases you'd be downloading 15+ extra MiB that are totally not needed

14:32:29  <Ammler> well, you could offer a special package "full" or so
14:33:02  <Rubidium> it also means that when e.g. OpenGFX is updated you'd have to wait for the next stable release to get the new version of OpenGFX installed "by default"

14:35:11  <Alberth> although that will happen now too :(

14:56:14  <planetmaker> Ammler: it does have its own wiki... but yes, it has a small fanbase. Mostly due to the fact that it's replay-factor still is very low
14:56:31  <planetmaker> they by far don't yet implement many functions of e.g. MoO2
14:56:47  <planetmaker> they follow a top-down design approach than bottom up.

15:05:57  <Eddi|zuHause> how can you go into a battle without survival pods?
15:06:12  <Eddi|zuHause> a couple well-placed shots and your best leader is gone?
15:06:55  <Eddi|zuHause> frosch123: also, it gets worse when you're uncreative and don't actually have a choice
15:07:03  <frosch123> i do not consider them very worthy, but maybe that is different in multiplayer
15:07:23  <frosch123> no question, uncreative is very troublesome :)
15:07:59  <PoopDragon> there is a very gay MMO trying to be like Master of Orion.
15:08:05  <Eddi|zuHause> i usually do: -1/2 food, +1 production, unification, poor planet, telepathic, cybernetic and uncreative
15:08:06  <PoopDragon> it's named Galaxy Online.

15:09:23  <Eddi|zuHause> you need about 2 spys per empire, and it gets pretty effective
15:09:51  <Eddi|zuHause> especially if you get one or two spying techs early
15:09:54  <frosch123> me does +2 production, -0.5 income, -10 ground battle, -10 espionage, cybernetic, telepathic and omniscient
15:10:10  <PoopDragon> Hope we aren't getting Colonization or Civilization MMO-ed in next two-three years.
15:10:41  <Eddi|zuHause> is omniscient worth it?
15:11:19  <frosch123> you can choose who to engage, you need no scanners, and you know where the good systems are
15:11:38  <frosch123> so you can expand towards them
15:11:50  <frosch123> though also get that knowledge from the old guys

15:12:16  <frosch123> but usually late, when you know most anyway
15:12:33  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, some leaders are omniscient
15:13:08  <Eddi|zuHause> something crazy happened to me in my last game: the enemy had a telepathic leader in their system, so i couldn't take it... :p
15:13:38  <frosch123> yeah, that sucks, you need to build transporters suddenly :p
15:15:01  <Eddi|zuHause> what's cool with telepathic is that basically in every battle you take over their starbase, and use it against them :p
15:15:21  <Eddi|zuHause> especially when you have neutron blasters :p
15:15:53  <frosch123> hmm, how does telepathic help in taking over starbases?
15:15:53  <PoopDragon> but for me, Orion is just boring. More boring than any FPS's (!)
15:16:07  <Eddi|zuHause> frosch123: you can use them after taking over
15:16:24  <frosch123> others cannot do that?
15:16:30  <Eddi|zuHause> no :p
15:16:40  <frosch123> he, never noticed :p
15:16:53  <PoopDragon> =_=
15:18:42  <Eddi|zuHause> frosch123: where i mostly need more than one tech of a level is the line where the factories are. you almost every time need to skip something that improves your ships, like heavy armor or better starbases
15:20:18  <PoopDragon> okay, does OTTD installer use variable $PACKAGEDIR?

16:02:18  <Rubidium> notepad's handling of newlines is completely wrong
16:02:39  <robotboy> gnight
16:03:02  <Rubidium> it needs "\r\n" for newlines where "\r" is carriage return, i.e. go to the begin of the line, and "\n" is new line
16:03:57  <Rubidium> what you're trying to open is a file without "\r", so in the worst case the "\n" should go to a new line at the same column it was at, but it fails even at that.
16:04:26  <Rubidium> nevertheless, if you want Windows newlines you should check out the repository on Windows using subversion

16:26:47  <planetmaker> there are three different autoclean settings IIRC
16:27:11  <Marlinc> Because the Wiki makes me crazy:p

16:34:50  <Marlinc> I did one's make the console fullscreen
16:34:56  <Marlinc> How?
16:35:32  <Zuu> Never seen that possibility within OpenTTD
16:35:42  <planetmaker> one can enlarge it *somehow*
16:35:45  <planetmaker> no idea how
16:36:03  <Marlinc> I had it one's
16:36:11  <Marlinc> Still thank you
16:36:13  <__ln__> "one's"?  .. like "once"?
16:36:18  <Marlinc> Yes
16:36:20  <Marlinc> Thank you
16:36:26  <Zuu> It is enlarged if you use a bigger window size, but it is more like a portion of the window height.
16:36:37  <Marlinc> I know
16:37:02  <Zuu> If you're courious, I would check the source code.
16:37:10  <Marlinc> :p
16:37:33  <Zuu> I've been digging there once when I implemented the text box focus. Then I had to do a special case for the console.
16:39:50  <Zuu> Hmm, next time I make christmas candy I should get a large deap plate that fit onto any of my pots. Having a deap plate standing on a large one is a huge loss of efficiency.
16:41:00  <Belugas> making candy?  sounds nice :)  how?
16:43:08  <Zuu> Alsmond paste balls with some jam in the middle that are rolled in melted chocklet.

16:46:35  <Zuu> I have one 200gram bar left ^^
16:46:57  <Belugas> what jam flavor?
16:47:09  <Belugas> peach should be dazzling good
16:48:24  <planetmaker> we have no rcon patch applied
16:48:58  <planetmaker> but it probably works as ap+ directly works on the console
16:48:59  <Zuu> Some with lingonberry jam, orange marmelade and cherry marmelade.
16:49:09  <planetmaker> and rcon is only the keyword to pipe that thing to the console
16:49:24  <Zuu> Only one type of jam in each.
16:49:47  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: ah, so ap+ actually does some preprocessing
16:50:05  <planetmaker> well. it needs to know what to send to the console

18:33:18  <planetmaker> (manual download)
18:33:32  <planetmaker> or for grf developers so that the grf info is updated
18:33:32  <Zuu> But you can't add them to a running game, so why can you make OpenTTD detect them?
18:33:46  <planetmaker> Zuu: it also is necessary from main menu
18:34:11  <planetmaker> or rather there it is mostly necessary
18:34:41  <Zuu> Sure, but as I see it, parts of the GUI from the main menu has been hidden/removed in the in-game NewGRF dialog since the decision to disable in-game changing of NewGRFs.

20:01:50  <Dante123> :D
20:02:25  <Dante123> i hate to have like 3 menu items to cover all my Buffer variables for station tiles
20:02:40  <Dante123> but really have some problems to get it coded into 1 item :/
20:03:23  <planetmaker> hello Dante123 & andythenorth
20:03:30  <Dante123> finnaly have vacation now so i will have lots of time to get some big work going on on my grf :D
20:03:36  <Dante123> hi planetmaker
20:04:21  <Dante123> today i was trying to see how ISR did the buffer trick
20:04:29  *** Devroush [~dennis@94-225-75-247.access.telenet.be] has quit []
20:04:31  <Dante123> i also posted that in my topic about thet dep. sprite thing
20:04:54  <Dante123> tried to break down the codes he has there, but cant make cheese out of it :/
20:07:03  <planetmaker> I saw your reply. But I have never looked at station coding really...
20:07:28  *** Devroush [~dennis@94-225-75-247.access.telenet.be] has joined #openttd
20:07:35  <andythenorth> me neither
20:11:29  <Dante123> i understand :)
20:12:01  <Dante123> i was trying to break down that code from ISR but cant find all that numbers back on the wiki
20:12:27  <planetmaker> Dante123: do you have the real source of ISR or just the decompiled grf?
20:12:28  <Dante123> well i can code the buffers as separate station ID's but than it will be 3 menu items
20:12:37  <Dante123> just the decompiled one
20:12:44  <Dante123> is that one open source ? :|
20:13:02  <planetmaker> you should get a checkout of the real source: http://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/isr
20:13:14  <planetmaker> it might have more comments. Yes, it's licensed under GPL v2
20:13:18  <Dante123> DOH. of that was a fail from my side :P
20:14:25  <Terkhen> heh, I should install MOO2 :)
20:14:59  <Dante123> planetmaker seems like i fail again, i cant find a download/view button ?
20:15:15  <Dante123> planetmaker nvm
20:15:17  <planetmaker> well... it's a repository. You need mercurial
20:15:31  <planetmaker> or browse it online

20:19:44  <Dante123> it should be in fixtures

20:20:46  <planetmaker> for how to get going with HG
20:21:03  <Dante123> hg ?
20:22:01  <planetmaker> mercurial
20:22:14  <planetmaker> a version control system. Keeping track of source code changes
20:22:49  <Dante123> ahaa to start too myself you mean ?
20:23:11  <Dante123> will dive into that tomorrow i guess, too tired to dive too much into that now :)
20:23:19  <planetmaker> well. Then you can easily get the whole checkout. And it will IMHO help you, too
20:23:38  <planetmaker> your newgrf starts to get dfinitely complex enough to make it really worthwhile
20:23:57  <planetmaker> it needs a bit getting used to, but has clear advantages. Both for yourself as when it comes to sharing code
20:24:27  <Dante123> yea ur right
20:24:41  <andythenorth> Dante123: worth learning
20:24:48  <andythenorth> makes you feel smarter ;)
20:24:49  <planetmaker> anyway: look at platforms.nfo
20:24:54  <Dante123> my goal is still to get a station tile set with sim. quality to ISR :P
20:25:19  <planetmaker> platforms.nfo seems to have the buffers
20:25:39  <Dante123> ah i see
20:25:39  <Dante123> thanx
20:25:57  <Dante123> lets try to see if i can follow what he is doing
20:26:09  <CIA-2> OpenTTD: smatz * r21612 /trunk/src/viewport.cpp: -Fix (r21608): dragging with HT_POINT was half a tile off
20:26:10  <Dante123> i want to start adding platforms now too to my set
20:26:18  <Dante123> will post some of the previews now btw
20:26:18  <planetmaker> andythenorth: yeah. Intially I also thought like "what the crap". But it really changed the way I could deal with sources
20:26:24  <planetmaker> saved tons of time
20:26:37  <planetmaker> both here but also at work
20:26:38  <Dante123> this should also be in some "how to start" page
20:27:10  <Dante123> it really help (for me) GREATLY to have some example code to look at while having the wiki next to it

20:32:59  <planetmaker> then look at the edges of the \ platform. There only the lower border is low, the upper (North) border is also rised
20:33:01  <Dante123> low ?
20:33:33  <Dante123> they are all high platforms ?
20:33:41  <planetmaker> between tracks your platforms are elevated.
20:33:46  <Dante123> and have ramps on both sides
20:34:15  <planetmaker> yes. But they have no platform when they're at the edge, i.e. no further platform in that direction. At least in the / view
20:34:20  <Dante123> they are the same hight on both sides ?

20:35:14  <Dante123> normal you have like platform-rail-platform
20:35:55  <Dante123> in the / view i did 1 side tiles at both NW and SE sides
20:36:09  <Dante123> if thats what you mean ?
20:36:41  <planetmaker> http://imagebin.org/129280 <-- that
20:36:51  <planetmaker> the borders with the same colour are alike.

20:37:58  <Dante123> yea
20:38:13  <planetmaker> looks like a bug :-)
20:38:16  <Dante123> at that red circle i did not add the 1 sided platform tiles ?
20:38:22  <planetmaker> yeah
20:38:31  <Dante123> the yellow circle ones are OK right ?
20:38:32  <planetmaker> I thought that might happen automatically. But maybe better not
20:38:42  <planetmaker> well. "ok" depends upon what you expect
20:38:50  <planetmaker> I just wondered about the difference
20:39:14  <planetmaker> it's all ok, if I can choose all different tiles individually and you just made it that way. Might even be the more desirable option
20:39:32  <Dante123> oh yea
20:39:39  <Dante123> as you can see on the pic 1 on my post
20:39:47  <Dante123> that are the building options in the menu
20:39:52  <planetmaker> And then adding some other bigger "overall" stations like ISR's steel station where the borders are automatically defined. Might be an idea
20:40:09  <Dante123> so at this poitn all can be chosen separate
20:40:17  <planetmaker> where one just drags an area and the border would be selected automatically
20:40:20  <planetmaker> ok :-)
20:40:47  <Dante123> yea exactly. that is why i try to figure out how that crap works with choosing a sprite dep. on the adjacent one
20:40:54  *** Progman [~progman@p57A1B423.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #openttd
20:40:59  <Dante123> but so for i fail to understand :p
20:41:20  <planetmaker> he
20:41:58  <Dante123> but once i figure that out i can also make sprites bigger than 1x1
20:42:18  <Dante123> already have some ideas in my head to draw, but dont know how to code the ideas :p
20:42:52  <Wolf01> 2x2?
20:42:59  <Wolf01> or 1x2?
20:43:20  <Dante123> well want to start off with something like 2x2 or 2x1
20:43:28  <Dante123> but have also plans for even bigger ones
20:44:01  <Wolf01> 5x5 opens nice combinations like readable letters
20:44:13  <Dante123> the real goal will be that a player can "build" huge industrial terminals including the industrial terrains
20:44:28  <Wolf01> newobjects!!!!
20:44:35  <Dante123> also yes
20:45:00  <Dante123> for the industrial terrains/terminals is see it more as stations
20:45:20  <Dante123> because the whole terrain makes part of the industrial terrain in that case
20:45:32  <Dante123> an thus is part of the infrastructure of the station

20:48:08  <Dante123> pff 1 of my gameservers has problems again :/
20:49:29  <Dante123> still should ask the sponsor to open some Ottd server too
20:53:03  <planetmaker> Dante123: you're - if you like - also welcome to join our server(s) or supply maps for our stable server. The only condition for the latter is to have insane ship, aircraft and terraform costs by means of the basecost newgrf
20:53:34  <planetmaker> (well, and that used newgrfs are all bananad already ;-) )
20:55:15  <Dante123> well i already run some gameservers for a other game too
20:55:37  <Dante123> that is because a friend of mine is the owner of a gameserver rental company :D
20:55:50  <planetmaker> :-)
20:55:52  <planetmaker> convenient

20:56:04  <Dante123> yea so atm i run them for free :P
20:56:17  <Dante123> but dunno if he wants to add openttd too as a game
20:56:26  <planetmaker> would be a first ;-)
20:56:30  <planetmaker> I guess
20:56:36  <Dante123> i guess he has to test first how they act on the servers
20:57:10  <planetmaker> they eat one core and a bit memory. Not much else needed. The overall traffic should not be too high
20:57:18  <planetmaker> just map download eats traffic
20:57:46  <Dante123> bah
20:57:49  <Dante123> thats nothing
20:58:05  <Dante123> currently i have a 20 slots ET server and a 40 slots ET server
20:58:08  <andythenorth> planetmaker: wondering if the OS X build of OTTD can show the version number in 'About OpenTTD' window?
20:58:08  <andythenorth> probably tmwftlb
20:58:13  <Dante123> av. visitors a day is around 100
20:58:19  <Dante123> av. mapsize is 10 MB :P
20:58:30  <Dante123> so that traffic will be waay bigger anyway
20:58:30  * andythenorth adventures into actual OS X code, where he has feared to tread before
20:58:33  <planetmaker> 10BM? sounds big

21:00:25  <andythenorth> I am wondering if I can learn enough to show that, then add the svn version
21:00:29  <planetmaker> andythenorth: then the about window would show the hg version there, too

21:36:57  <Rubidium> fonsinchen: looks like the auto-orders.diff didn't get updated last night
21:37:29  <fonsinchen> hmm, ok, I'll push another update
21:38:01  <Rubidium> not really necessary as I won't have time to look at it till the weekend
21:38:25  <fonsinchen> it doesn't automatically create a patch if there's a conflict and sometimes I forget to do that manually
21:41:11  <fonsinchen> now it's up to date.
