00:06:34  <Nat_AS> is there any newgrifs that add a tourism industry?
00:07:07  <Nat_AS> factories that just have a high passenger rating and maybe a bit of goods/food/mail
00:07:14  <Nat_AS> like static towns
00:12:58  <Hirundo> ECS has 'tourists' as a separate cargo

00:13:43  <Nat_AS> well that's silly
00:14:29  <Nat_AS> I could understand them as a separate subcategory of passengers. But requiring them to use different cars is silly.

00:17:12  <Nat_AS> it would be cool if the game recognized different classes of passenger.
00:17:22  <Nat_AS> and maybe different classes of goods.

00:17:44  <Nat_AS> they could be stored in the same cars, BUT go to different destinations.

18:32:52  <Rhamphoryncus> hrm.  Dunno then.
18:33:27  <camilo> it seems to happen since I upgraded to 1.2.0-beta4
18:33:36  <camilo> but I am not sure
18:34:13  <camilo> actually, after 20 tries or so I am sometimes able to connect, and then I can play for hours without problem
18:35:18  <Rhamphoryncus> Openttd's handling of joining is rather crude

18:36:08  <Rhamphoryncus> Someone else I've been talking to is having similar problems
18:37:03  <Rhamphoryncus> Basically, if you ask to join it stops everything and waits for you to finish.  However, since this can be slow (maps are a lot of data to download) and nobody can play in the mean time it has a short timeout
18:37:56  <camilo> that's a pity.. should download before joining, and then apply a diff to bring your client up to speed
18:38:10  <camilo> or something like that
18:38:42  <Rhamphoryncus> Should.  It'd actually just need a large buffer for your client and maybe a way to have your time run fast until caught up
18:38:43  <camilo> hate to think my 20 tries to join have been causing pauses in other people's play
18:40:00  <camilo> will try downgrading to 1.1.5 & joining smaller servers
18:40:05  <camilo> i mean smaller maps
18:41:46  <camilo> then again, it might be something wrong with my connection... maps are only 1.5 MB or so
18:43:55  <camilo> thanks
18:44:53  <Rhamphoryncus> np.  Wish I was more help.

18:57:42  <Rubidium> the pausing is actually to prevent even less people from joining due to the large amount of "difference" that's generated
18:58:20  *** TdlQ__ is now known as MJP
18:58:22  <Rubidium> as there's also a limit to the amount of time you may take from having downloaded the game up to you are 'in sync'
18:59:35  <camilo> yeah.. but I wasn't having any troubles before
19:00:03  <Rubidium> we added timeouts, which are generally good
19:00:11  <Rubidium> except when using large maps or slow connections
19:00:24  <camilo> it's either the update or my ISP
19:00:39  <Rubidium> in which case it is up to the server *owner* to properly configure their server so people can join
19:01:26  <Rubidium> do you also have problems with the #openttdcoop welcome server? (1.2.0-betta4)
19:01:32  <camilo> just compiled 1.1.5 -- will see if it is any better
19:01:43  <Rubidium> probably not
19:01:46  <camilo> I haven't tried that one
19:02:20  <camilo> with 1.1.5 at least I'll have more servers to chose from
19:03:54  <Rhamphoryncus> Rubidium: yeah, I'm sure there's a good reason for it, but it's also problematic so there's got to be a better compromise
19:04:29  <camilo> now that I think of it, I actually joined that openttdcoop server without problems
19:04:37  <Rubidium> Rhamphoryncus: better in what sense?
19:04:57  <camilo> so it is the server configuration?
19:05:05  <Rhamphoryncus> Not screw over people on only moderately fast connections
19:05:53  <planetmaker> camilo, there's a timeout setting which servers can set
19:06:26  <Rubidium> Rhamphoryncus: so we should 'balance' it to 'slow connection' + 'huge map'?
19:06:31  <planetmaker> and of course it then depends on that setting (how long the server is patient before you timeout) and how fast you actually get the savegame (thus connection speed of you and / or the server)
19:06:51  <Rhamphoryncus> Rubidium: No, let one person connect in the background while people continue to play
19:07:01  <Rubidium> Rhamphoryncus: that is possible
19:07:07  <planetmaker> Rhamphoryncus, that's the default(?)
19:07:35  <Rhamphoryncus> planetmaker: that's not what openttdcoop's public server does and it doesn't sound like it's the default
19:07:45  <camilo> Rubidium, it is only the connection that presents an issue, in my experience, once I managed to join, I never timed out
19:07:54  <planetmaker> not sure we use the default, Rhamphoryncus :-)
19:08:00  <Rhamphoryncus> Rubidium: even if you have to give them a 10 meg buffer that's really not much
19:08:05  <Rubidium> there... even worse, if it's the default... then the server owners conciously changed the setting
19:08:25  <planetmaker> it's basically an ancient cfg we use which gets updated from time to time till our server works nicely :-)
19:08:27  <Rhamphoryncus> I can't imagine why such a setting would even exist
19:08:34  <Rubidium> Rhamphoryncus: the amount of network traffic after downloading is negligable
19:08:45  <Rubidium> but...
19:08:46  <planetmaker> Rhamphoryncus, denial of service is impossible by that setting
19:08:56  *** lmergen [~lmergen@5352EA70.cm-6-3d.dynamic.ziggo.nl] has joined #openttd
19:09:00  <Rubidium> when games progress many clients have enormous trouble trying to catch up to the server
19:09:10  <Rhamphoryncus> planetmaker: So it's a work-around.  The better solution is to limit the number of outstanding joins
19:09:17  <planetmaker> no
19:09:24  <Rubidium> as they need to *calculate* all game states between the savegame and the current state of the server
19:09:55  <Rhamphoryncus> Rubidium: just buffer since they started connecting.  Thus the 10 megs
19:09:59  <Rubidium> and if you download for 3 minutes, that means you need to execute 3 minutes of gameplay before being at that point
19:10:07  <Rhamphoryncus> yup
19:10:22  <Rhamphoryncus> Disabling the viewports would probably help that
19:10:27  <Rubidium> Rhamphoryncus: the buffer would just contain the commands, which are negligable
19:10:37  <Rubidium> Rhamphoryncus: viewport is also somewhat negligable
19:10:53  <Rubidium> the calculation of the different game states, that's not negligable
19:10:59  <Rhamphoryncus> If you're not talking the CPU load of having them fast-forward then what?
19:11:41  <Rubidium> OpenTTD does 'fast forward' when catching up with the server
19:12:00  <Rubidium> but as I said, servers in later states are so CPU heavy that fast forward is maybe 50% faster
19:12:23  <camilo> so, is it during that 'fast forward' that clients time out?
19:12:39  <Rubidium> that's one of the places where clients can time out
19:12:47  <Rubidium> either typing the password takes too long
19:12:50  <Rhamphoryncus> I've played with that.  The rendering is the largest consumer for me.  If I shrink to a small window then fast-forward goes much faster
19:12:53  <Rubidium> or downloading the map takes too long
19:13:08  <Rubidium> or fast forwarding to the current server state takes too long
19:13:24  <Rubidium> Rhamphoryncus: in MP fastforward some drawing steps are actually skipped
19:13:40  <camilo> oh.. so in my case it might be a CPU thing (playing on a netbook), rather than a connection thing (relatively fast)?
19:13:44  <Rhamphoryncus> Rubidium: Not in SP?
19:13:47  <Rubidium> or because the client didn't reply fast enough to the server (within IIRC 15 seconds of sending a ping)
19:13:51  <Rubidium> Rhamphoryncus: no
19:14:04  <Rubidium> camilo: it might be any of them
19:14:17  <Rubidium> flaky network, not enough cpu, maps being too big, ...
19:15:03  <Rhamphoryncus> Rubidium: regardless, if they could keep up with MP once connected, then they will eventually catch up while connecting

19:15:23  <Rubidium> eventually yes...
19:15:33  <ET> hey
19:15:57  <Rhamphoryncus> As long as the UI still operates then I see no problem with that.  It's much better than outright failing
19:16:01  <ET> does anyone know how to get a hold of the forum owners? I forgot my username, and can't log on
19:16:09  <Rubidium> 3 minutes, 50% faster than the server, means you're still 1:30 off, so in the end you need 6 minutes to catch up to the server and thus your mouse clicks actually reacting in any reasonable way
19:16:13  <planetmaker> ET, write an e-mail
19:16:23  <ET> to what address?
19:16:42  <Rubidium> after all, if you're 3 minutes behind the server sending a command to build a road or rail takes 3 minutes before it comes back to you!
19:17:09  <Rubidium> which means "I doesn't work" and thus people disconnect
19:17:26  <Rhamphoryncus> So display something saying you're still catching up
19:17:31  <Rubidium> as such the limit's default is much lower (half a minute IIRC)

19:19:55  <ET> I can't see to figure out an order for the transfer point to transfer all cargo, and wait for a full load of any cargo. What always seems to happen is the cargo is unloaded, then loaded right back
19:20:10  <Rubidium> but the networking code is (IMO) already complex enough; I don't fancy adding even more state and things that could possibly go wrong
19:20:33  <planetmaker> ET, "transfer and leave empty"
19:20:52  <Rhamphoryncus> ET: you want to transfer AND load up for a return trip?
19:20:52  <ET> the problem is that I don't want to leave empty
19:20:53  <planetmaker> two-way transfer does not work

19:21:11  <planetmaker> exactly. That's how it is :-)
19:21:18  <ET> blagh
19:21:37  <planetmaker> There are ideas how to change that. But they all have a heavy impact on the CPU usage of the game

22:10:17  <SpComb> replace openttd with Python
22:10:28  <frosch123> replace python with openttd
22:11:32  <Terkhen> replace both with C#
22:11:38  <Terkhen> or even better, HTML5
22:12:18  <andythenorth> we could have a whole new class of exciting errors
22:12:33  <andythenorth> python means we could experiment with unclosed for loops

22:19:49  <SpComb> release GRFv2

22:22:00  <andythenorth> with some killer new feature that everyone wants?

22:22:27  <frosch123> andythenorth: i guess ottd would rather fit with "whitespace"
22:22:31  <michi_cc> whitespace
22:22:57  <frosch123> yeah :) tabs, spaces and newlines
22:24:15  <frosch123> hmm, using syntax highlighting for whitespace is cheating
22:24:37  <Rubidium> pff...
22:25:14  <Rubidium> just use a brainfuck whitespace-ish language where the value of the previous character needs to be xor-ed with the value of the current character to get the actual byte to execute ;)

22:34:50  * andythenorth is thinking that grfs could be written by running a parser / lexer backwards on the nfo :P
22:34:57  <Rubidium> we should make the savegame a xml
22:35:04  <Rubidium> that's much simpler
22:35:13  <andythenorth> that would make it ~1GB for a small map?
