I forgot the name for it but to put it short .. you had the normal cab firebox ... then a short section of boiler tubes ... a second box of some sort and second section of boiler tubes 02:15:35 <drac_boy> the middle section never operated so well which explains the idea being written off 02:16:03 <drac_boy> wonder if they had thought there was some additional efficency in that or not when they first tried it 02:16:05 <Supercheese> a reheat section? 02:16:13 <drac_boy> supercheese something like that yeah 02:16:21 <Supercheese> that would require a second set of cylinders, no? 02:16:29 <Flygon> I'm sorry if I don't reply 02:16:32 <Flygon> I'm quite busy 02:17:02 <drac_boy> supercheese...no...the firebox fed the first pipe which then emptied into the middle box which then was feeding the second pipe .. which then finally did go to the pistons 02:17:17 <drac_boy> thats why it wasn't too hard to rebuilt them as normal boilers after the idea started flopping 02:17:34 <Supercheese> Hmm, odd indeed 02:17:51 <drac_boy> I'm trying to see if i can find something of it online btw 02:17:59 <Supercheese> I thought maybe they had the steam run from high pressure cylinders back to the

<drac_boy> supercheese here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-tube_boiler does not mention the B&O locomotives but still ... kinda quite different from a normal boiler 02:26:04 <drac_boy> I'm

02:29:19 <drac_boy> http://www.thefairchilds.org/trains/full/prr6200b.jpg thats a single-turbine locomotive with a small reversing turbine sticking out the side (you can see it obviously) ... 02:30:19 <drac_boy> sure it was good for heavy fast passenger trains but the main problem with such a direct single-speed turbine was...it could suck working pressure quite fast because unlike the piston valves theres nothing to restrain "endless" steam inlet to the turbine 02:30:53 <drac_boy> turbines had always been better off on boats alone where weight was not a concern so it was easy to have a multi-turbines setup (where it progressed from a small to large turbine as power required) 02:31:36 <drac_boy> even then some ships still had a small conventional diesel genset for these moments where the small turbine isn't really needed but theres no land power hookups tho if you get the idea 02:34:11 *** Pixa [~pixa@85.210.66.134] has joined #openttd 02:35:49 <drac_boy> supercheese sometimes if

<drac_boy> ;) 02:44:15 <Supercheese> true enough 02:44:52 <drac_boy> its a reason why certain locomotives when imported were different ... sometimes for a diesel locomotive it was mainly re getting A1A instead of B trucks as to just make it fit under the axle loading restriction 02:45:50 <drac_boy> or during WWII .. some of the american locomotives sent to uk looked rather weird with their scrunized-down boiler and cab due to the smaller loading gauge they used there :) 02:46:31 <drac_boy> actually there was one railroad in the 1950s that had one such

02:55:05 <drac_boy> supercheese you have to remember that the illinois railroad was only a small-medium time trolley/freight with 1500VDC system ... so a huge locomotive like one of these 'Little Joe' rstarting a heavy freight train at 4pm could throw a wrench into the substation load level 02:55:50 <drac_boy> but at eg 2pm or 9pm there was very few other trains running around in the city so it was easy to leave a lot of juice for these locomotive to kick heavy trains with ease 02:57:35 <drac_boy> the 11000VAC railroads in northeast usa didn't have the problem because they were designed as heavy duty system in the first place (how else could you explain 6+ passenger GG1's and another several freight trains running at the same time in a specific 10km block power section? :) 02:57:46 <drac_boy>

15:00:34 <drac_boy> its no wonder the famous F7 locomotives were known for doing 80+mph runs easily. heres a photo if you need to remember what a F7 was again: http://www.germansteam.co.uk/FastestLoco/fastloco-08.jpg 15:00:43 <drac_boy> flygon yeah there you go :) 15:00:58 <Flygon> Puts Australia to shame :p 15:01:10 <drac_boy> flygon theres another thing to think about.... 15:02:05 <drac_boy> just before the 1920s most trains were always the slow conventional trains ... there was no serious attempt at speedups ... but then the 1930 depression hit ... and by the 1930s it seem like everyone want to try outdo each others which explained all the bursts of modern fast trains 15:02:33 <drac_boy> even B&O was in the act too as obvious by the very early pre-FT diesels from emd .. then there being the many different Zephyr's .. etc 15:04:09 <drac_boy> of course 1940 almost everything had to come to an end .. axed track maintenance and higher loadings both altogether made speed take a backseat 15:04:18 <Flygon> Heh 15:04:37 <Flygon> Shame WWII happened... 15:04:39 <drac_boy> so what used to be a limited-stop 80mph express soon became a heavyweights-mixed all-stopping 50mph train 15:04:52 <Flygon> America could have had a Shinkansen revolution by 1945 15:05:01 <Flygon> Well 15:05:06 <drac_boy> flygon...mind you there were a few things in uk that 'would had been' if WWII had not happened .... 15:05:07 <Flygon> North-East, anyway 15:05:17 <Flygon> Such as UK-wide electrification 15:05:19 <Flygon> Yes, I know 15:05:30 <Flygon> Man, if WWII didn't happen 15:05:48 <Flygon> Australia would have probably tried to build 4-16-4 steam locomotives by 1955 :p 15:05:55 <drac_boy> gresley was working on a new mallard but that was cut due to war .. and the funny thing was SR was trying to push ahead on electrification but war put a break on that which only meant southern steam was saved 15:06:40 <drac_boy> and of course the V2's (the one that had the monoblocks yeah) got a bit punished by overloaded trains during the war that its not a surprise only a few were in good condition after the war 15:07:02 <drac_boy> eg a single train of 22 coaches unassisted .. thats a lot for one locomotive :-s 15:07:41 <Flygon> It rather is! 15:07:41 *** plhalaser [560f697d@ircip2.mibbit.com] has joined #openttd 15:08:16 <Flygon> I feel sorry for the shoveler 15:09:13 <drac_boy> flygon btw WWII may have helped rail traffics in usa but .. post-war was a rapid shamble ... overegulated by the govs did not help things much .. thats why two major railroads really went bankrupt big time .. and the 1971 amtrak act was mainly a move to save the remaining freight trains from disappearing 15:09:37 <Flygon> Indeed 15:09:44 <plhalaser> hi i want ask its here someone who have mingw/msys on 64bit win7? 15:09:52 <drac_boy> of course there was the creation of Conrail which rather needed a LOT of government money (think billions) its first few years but soon finally proved itself as a lean profitting company that soon was privatized 15:11:14 <Flygon> (for some fun, take a second to realize that one of the only 'fast trains' in the world allowed to go over 115-130km/h in Australia is the American Alcoa Express: All the others fail to tick all the boxes that Australian regulation wants ticked) 15:11:26 <Flygon> (usually crashworthiness) 15:12:13 <drac_boy> flygon the two major rails that disappeared was Rock Island due to overregulation ineptness and PC (which was really PRR+NH to start with by then) being undone finally by doctored books -- they were actually losing more than M per day!! 15:12:40 <Flygon> (this is something Cityrail realized when they tried to import a set of trains from China, instead of Australia, to get them faster and cheaper... only to find out they needed to extensively rebuild the brand new delivered trains just so they could be legally run on test runs. The end result ended up costing more and running years overtime) 15:13:45 <drac_boy> when you remember that PRR and NH altogether owned a billion of routes in northeast usa which was the industry hotspot of usa before .. you can understand how crazy their bankruptions must had been 15:15:05 <drac_boy> btw if you didn't know: Conrail is long gone, its CSX and NS altogether who owns different pieces of what used to be Conrail's network 15:15:21 <Flygon> Urf... 15:15:26 <Flygon> Just a personal note 15:15:35 <Flygon> I've never been a fan of splitting rail companies apart 15:15:50 <Flygon> Best to keep them state or nationally owned, along with the tracks 15:16:16 <drac_boy> flygon I know but it was a crazy bidding war .. CSX initially thought it was getting it but NS made a surprising higher bid ... raged on for a bit of while then finally it was more or less a split bid 15:16:21 <Flygon> V/Line nearly imploded because the state Government tried to split and privatize it... 15:16:23 <drac_boy> so thats why the dividing up 15:16:35 <Flygon> Ah 15:18:19 <drac_boy> flygon mind you one particular set of mergers in usa was ... just a bad mess 15:18:27 <Flygon> Hm? 15:19:14 <drac_boy> first it used to be that SP took over D&RGW .. that one was ok at the end but still needing some more work ... but UP took SP and major meltdowns started :-s 15:20:49 <Flygon> Meltdowns? 15:21:45 <drac_boy> yeah as in stuck up yards and other things? :) 15:21:59 <Flygon> Far out 15:22:02 <Flygon> Sounds like fuuun 15:23:08 <plhalaser> need some help with install xz or lzma. mingw dont want a make config without lzma and without lzma a get same error as is on wiki page 15:24:28 <drac_boy> flygon of course there was the attempted SP/SF which was strongly denied 15:24:43 <Flygon> Just a note 15:24:47 <Flygon> I really must sleep sooooon x.x 15:24:50 <Flygon> TAFE tomorrow 15:24:53 <drac_boy> interestingly enough some locomotives had already been painted into the new SF name+colours 15:24:58 <Flygon> Gotta wake up @ 10, and it's 2:24 x: 15:25:24 <drac_boy> ok bye then flygon 15:25:30 <Flygon> Thank you 15:25:34 <Flygon> And sorry 15:26:15 * drac_boy whacks you with a pillow 15:26:17 <drac_boy> :P 15:44:35 *** oskari89 [~oskari89@62-241-226-131.bb.dnainternet.fi] has joined #openttd 15:45:28 *** Pensacola [~quassel@phys9212.phys.tue.nl] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 15:45:34 *** andythenorth [~Andy@cpc23-aztw25-2-0-cust33.aztw.cable.virginmedia.com] has joined #openttd 15:50:28 <andythenorth> hi hi 15:51:45 *** plhalaser [560f697d@ircip2.mibbit.com] has quit [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client] 15:54:35 <NGC3982> Evening. 15:55:06 <drac_boy> hi andythenorth 15:59:27 *** plhalaser [560f697d@ircip3.mibbit.com] has joined #openttd 15:59:27 *** Mikey5887 [5b87b4d7@ircip1.mibbit.com] has joined #openttd 15:59:54 *** Mikey5887 [5b87b4d7@ircip1.mibbit.com] has quit [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client] 16:04:51 *** drac_boy [~drac_boy@modemcable105.141-163-184.mc.videotron.ca] has left #openttd [I'm done being in this room!] 16:04:56 *** RavingManiac [~RavingMan@182.55.106.160] has joined #openttd 16:07:42 <DanMacK> Hey Andy 16:07:49 <andythenorth> hi DanMacK 16:09:22 <DanMacK> YGM 16:09:42 <andythenorth> yeah, so "not buildable" makes sense 16:10:00 <DanMacK> thought so 16:12:06 <andythenorth> mines are nice 16:12:15 <andythenorth> opengfx shades the roofs wrong 16:12:19 <andythenorth> I'll fix all that ;) 16:12:46 <andythenorth> I have code working for 'graphics by date' 16:12:49 *** Pixa [~pixa@85.210.66.29] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 16:12:58 <andythenorth> although opinion here was that it is a bad feature 16:13:01 *** Pixa [~pixa@85.210.66.29] has joined #openttd 16:15:49 <DanMacK> graphics by date? 16:15:59 <andythenorth> yup 16:16:09 <DanMacK> why is that a bad feature? 16:16:13 <andythenorth> dunno :) 16:16:26 <andythenorth> I didn't do a good job of finding out tbh 16:16:36 <andythenorth> code works for it though 16:16:45 <DanMacK> have it as a parameter for those that don't want it 16:17:39 <planetmaker> andythenorth, "graphics by date" is not really a bad feature... should it? 16:17:55 <planetmaker> it just depends on how it's used... after all we do that with grain mill e.g. already, not? 16:18:15 <planetmaker> it just should be made sure that the build date of the industry is used. Not the current date. 16:18:54 <planetmaker> otoh, if layouts are time-dependently introduced... doesn't matter even then 16:18:54 <DanMacK> The upgrading graphics that TTRS uses... is that possible w/industries? 16:19:13 <planetmaker> upgrading in what sense? But the answer 99.5% is "yes" 16:19:31 <DanMacK> the animated exploding of the old hispital building for instance 16:19:42 <planetmaker> yes, that's feasible 16:19:43 <DanMacK> and new buildings built 16:19:57 <DanMacK> so an industry can change appearance over time 16:20:27 <planetmaker> would work via animation frames 16:20:44 <DanMacK> any way to trigger it for a certain date? 16:21:01 <planetmaker> yes. 16:21:11 <andythenorth> the way I've coded it is based on years 16:21:25 <planetmaker> case date of: 16:21:28 <andythenorth> after date xxxx, graphics change 16:21:31 * DanMacK thinks construction graphics had better be drawn before destruction ones 16:21:32 <planetmaker> 0...1950: frame 0 16:21:45 <planetmaker> 1950: animate_reconstruction_switch; 16:21:50 <planetmaker> 1951: frame 3 16:22:17 <planetmaker> along those lines at least 16:22:30 <andythenorth> I do it by switching spriteset 16:22:40 <plhalaser> hi i need a little help with install xz or lzma on mingw, i install everything as on wiki step by step. i try to use 64 bit version. problem is when i try to make config before make of openttd i get error lzma not found, when i use without lzma, make made same error as is on bottom page on wiki 16:22:48 <andythenorth> as the sprites may be animated already ;) 16:23:20 <planetmaker> yes, works the same, andythenorth ^ 16:23:37 <planetmaker> andythenorth, but reconstruction is an animation sequence itself. need be 16:23:53 <planetmaker> unless you want to base it really on days. not years.

That's of course ok 16:27:39 <DanMacK> long term thoughts in my head :P 16:27:41 <andythenorth> borrow the explosion sprites from base set for destruction? :P 16:27:50 <planetmaker> of course feasible. No problem 16:27:53 <andythenorth> and use a palette transform to black? 16:27:58 <planetmaker> why? 16:28:22 <andythenorth> for the building sprite ;) 16:28:23 <planetmaker> it'd be like using bulldozer... so why would it be black and not firey? 16:28:25 <andythenorth> few frames of black 16:28:32 <andythenorth> with explosion overlay 16:28:36 <andythenorth> like crashed trains 16:28:59 <planetmaker> ah... hm... ... rather empty tile then 16:29:03 <planetmaker> after the explosion 16:29:48 <planetmaker> plhalaser, not sure which page and error you refer to nor do I use mingw or windows myself.

FIRS is structured quite differently 17:37:25 <andythenorth> docs are probably online 17:37:40 <andythenorth> actually not 17:37:43 <andythenorth> but they're in the bundle 17:37:48 <andythenorth> http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/firs/push/LATEST/ 17:37:56 <oskari89> andythenorth: current FIRS cargo chart, where? 17:38:11 <planetmaker> ingame. industry chain view :-) 17:38:15 <andythenorth> http://paste.openttdcoop.org/show/1892/ 17:38:30 <andythenorth> $someone should generate the chart from the source code 17:38:38 <andythenorth> rather than relying on the website that may not be in date 17:38:51 <planetmaker> andythenorth, 20 cargos is still a lot. is less feasible for basic? 17:38:56 <andythenorth> needs to be fewer imo 17:39:02 <andythenorth> but there is a limit where chains break 17:39:12 <planetmaker> andythenorth, use one supply in basic (instead of 3)? 17:39:13 <andythenorth> btw, I can have FIRS compiler output json or something 17:39:36 <DanMacK> Possibly look at the default chain and work backwards? 17:40:33 <andythenorth> I really want to avoid modifying production code 17:40:54 <andythenorth> economies modifies industry / cargo availability, and certain static properties (cargo payment, industry probability etc) 17:41:26 <oskari89> I think that FIRS economy is quite good. 17:41:39 <DanMacK> Supplies doesn't add that much more complexity as they are optional... 17:41:42 <oskari89> It gives realistic things to transport :) 17:41:56 <andythenorth> I am happy to include any sane, coherent economy 17:42:09 * planetmaker wonders why wood, steel and ore and coal are not "realistic" ;-) 17:42:12 <DanMacK> Indeed 17:42:12 <andythenorth> so if anyone wants a 'planetmaker economy' or an 'Eddi|zuHause economy' etc that's fine 17:42:19 <planetmaker> haha :-) 17:42:31 <andythenorth> we can have 2 economies or 20 17:42:41 <andythenorth> 20 is probably 10 too many, but meh 17:42:53 <DanMacK> It also makes it much more customizable 17:43:49 <planetmaker> andythenorth, what about defining "chains" which can be selected via parameter? 17:44:06 <planetmaker> but I guess that goes perpendicular to economies... 17:44:12 <DanMacK> So is it possible to swap out cargos for an economy? So you can work from a larger pool? 17:44:43 <DanMacK> That's similar to ecs... 17:44:52 <DanMacK> But parameter instead of newgrf 17:45:08 <planetmaker> yes, true 17:46:28 <Ammler> andythenorth: don't forget the "Ammler economy", we talked about years ago :-P 17:46:53 <DanMacK> Isn't that stuff and things?

18:26:11 <andythenorth> why should it? 18:27:02 <Supercheese> I'd wager "Transport ALL the cargo!" is a popular sentiment 18:27:19 <Supercheese> also, I like the bauxite chain :P 18:27:24 <andythenorth> yeah ok 18:27:34 <andythenorth> but I don't get it in that case 18:27:40 <andythenorth> why bother with economies at all? 18:27:50 * Supercheese shrugs 18:28:17 <Supercheese> Oh, also we had a bauxite plant up here on the Washington State side of the border, until it closed down a few years ago 18:28:36 <andythenorth> I don't understand how to provide 'all the cargos' and 'there are too many cargos' in one grf 18:28:40 <Supercheese> of course, they received their shipments from overseas, IIRC 18:28:43 <andythenorth> I find that kind of thing depressing tbh 18:29:16 <Supercheese> Have a parameter that switches from "ALL the cargos" and "Only some cargos"? 18:29:28 <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: if you think of temperate as first world and desert as 3rd world, then bauxite might be an imported cargo in temperate, but the desert economy lacks secondary industries 18:29:33 <andythenorth> "yes, we'd like it entirely in black, but also entirely in white, thanks, mm ok" 18:31:12 <andythenorth> so now the propoal is economies AND climates AND control over cargoes? 18:31:34 <andythenorth> when do I get to say "compile your own grf?" :P 18:31:35 <Eddi|zuHause> like, extending on the default saw mill, the desert economy starts out with agriculture and ports, but new secondary industries must be funded 18:31:59 <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: the available cargos get defined by the available industries 18:32:15 <Eddi|zuHause> everything else doesn't make sense 18:32:26 <Supercheese> I'd be ok with "compile your own grf", but yeah I don't think most would be :P 18:32:45 <Supercheese> well, as long as we're compiling in NML that is 18:32:54 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: doesn't make sense to me either ;) 18:33:07 <andythenorth> mind, I have run out of codeine here :P 18:34:12 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: cargos could vary slightly independently from industries 18:34:24 <andythenorth> some industries depend on certain cargos, others don't depend 18:34:41 <andythenorth> or at least, function if cargos are missing 18:35:03 <andythenorth> notably primaries 18:35:06 <andythenorth> and also black holes 18:35:25 <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: so an industry has two sets of cargos: "strong" and "weak" ones. a cargo is included if at least one industry has it as "strong" one 18:35:36 *** Alberth [~hat3@a82-95-164-127.adsl.xs4all.nl] has joined #openttd 18:35:39 *** mode/#openttd [+o Alberth] by ChanServ 18:35:48 <Alberth> moin 18:35:51 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: this sounds plausible 18:36:32 <Eddi|zuHause> so e.g. a bauxite mine has bauxite as strong cargo and engineering supplies as weak cargo 18:36:33 <andythenorth> it would remove the need to define cargos 18:36:42 <andythenorth> could be auto-calculated 18:37:04 <andythenorth> hmm 18:37:34 <Eddi|zuHause> or the strong/weak thing is only for output cargos?
