00:02:46  <andythenorth> herp
00:02:53  <andythenorth> any need for a big ship pre 1900?
00:02:58  <andythenorth> big means > 800t
00:03:03  <andythenorth> I can't find a use for them

00:04:51  <andythenorth> oops :P
00:04:53  <andythenorth> wrong quit
00:05:01  <Supercheese> Yes indeed
00:05:10  <Supercheese> I was saying I used one in the 1890s
00:05:17  <Supercheese> But not really before
00:05:42  <Supercheese> I'm using a single 960t ship
00:05:56  <Supercheese> rest are 540t ships and smaller
00:06:28  <Supercheese> 960t is biggest currently available, though if there was one bigger I wouldn't have a use for it yet
00:06:49  <Supercheese> game year is 1902
00:08:21  <Supercheese> Although a station has just exceeded train capacity
00:08:41  <Supercheese> 2,000t of metal waiting and the trains train throughput is at max
00:08:49  <Supercheese> time to switch to a canal
00:10:04  <andythenorth> I think the 960t ship has no place :)
00:10:10  <andythenorth> it's gone in SQUID
00:10:13  <andythenorth> bed time
00:10:15  <andythenorth> bye

00:43:55  <Supercheese> I really should stop posting at Simuscape

01:49:13  <Supercheese> I really should stop building terminus stations, ro-ro all the way [gently down the stream]
02:06:57  <Flytgon> Use both
02:07:10  <Flytgon> In my North America scenario, I use both extensively
02:07:25  <Flytgon> Terminuses where multiple lines conjoin
02:07:58  <Flytgon> Ro-Ro for where I want trains to stop into a town (and express through tracks in the middle)
02:08:23  <Flytgon> There is also dead-stop terminuses for end of lines... so, for example
02:09:00  <Flytgon> I end up with some lines ending abruptly, then I build on, and I'll have a very fancy station for a tiny town that trains can short-stop at to handle demand on parts of the route that have more passengers

02:58:45  <Supercheese> was hoping to autorefit to livestock at the farm, autorefit to food at the stockyard, but nope

09:07:01  <andythenorth> Pikka hi beans
09:07:12  <Pikka> beems
09:07:20  <Pikka> what's afoot?
09:07:30  <Supercheese> 12 inches
09:07:41  <andythenorth> designing ship progression is tedious
09:08:00  <Pikka> :D
09:08:01  <Supercheese> I like how FISH does it
09:08:02  <andythenorth> is that NARS 2 generations thing really so bad?
09:08:03  <Supercheese> :)
09:08:11  <Pikka> whatcha got?  doing it in a spreadsheet?
09:08:14  <Pikka> yes, it's awful
09:08:27  <andythenorth> it's easy for the big stuff
09:08:29  <andythenorth> it gets bigger
09:08:31  <andythenorth> and faster
09:08:40  <andythenorth> but around 100t, you never want bigger
09:08:48  <andythenorth> bigger just screws with the routes you have set up
09:08:49  <Pikka> well
09:08:57  <andythenorth> and faster isn't much option with ships
09:09:00  <Pikka> you can do graphical generations, that's no problem
09:09:13  <Pikka> just don't do stat generations on one ID, it's terrible
09:09:16  <andythenorth> yup
09:11:02  <Pikka> gonna do shipspeed parameter? ;)
09:11:09  <Pikka> maybe up to 2x speed?
09:12:58  <andythenorth> meh
09:12:59  <andythenorth> dunno
09:13:09  <andythenorth> so, 100t puffer-sized ship
09:13:15  <andythenorth> 1 model for 150 years, different graphics?
09:13:23  <Pikka> sure
09:13:29  <andythenorth> or 2 models, switching to diesel at 1940 or so?
09:13:46  <Pikka> any particular reason to change model?
09:14:03  <Pikka> if you're not changing stats, may as well just have one
09:14:10  <andythenorth> might be a bit faster, maybe cheaper
09:14:18  <andythenorth> also building the same ship over and over gets boring
09:14:21  <Pikka> go on then :P
09:14:24  <Pikka> does it?
09:14:37  <andythenorth> 'upgrade' is one of the gameplay activities no?
09:14:43  <andythenorth> upgrading is fun?
09:14:55  <andythenorth> it's like going shopping
09:14:59  <Pikka> hmm
09:15:21  <Supercheese> Research and development!
09:15:26  <Supercheese> I dunno why people always want that :|
09:15:57  <Pikka> also, do I need a container flat?  I suppose I do.
09:16:02  <andythenorth> same reason they like birthday presents
09:16:09  <andythenorth> Pikka: don't stint on wagons :P
09:16:16  <andythenorth> too few wagons is boring
09:16:24  <andythenorth> or just do one 'universal wagon'
09:16:40  <Pikka> if I include a container wagon
09:16:41  <Pikka> I have
09:16:47  <Pikka> eight :]
09:16:48  <Supercheese> Wagon that can autorefit to anything
09:17:39  <Supercheese> Have the 'wagon' just change graphics based on cargo
09:17:49  <Supercheese> Hoppers if coal, tankers if oil
09:18:00  <Pikka> bearing in mind that each of those eight, across half a dozen country sets, all cargos, railtypes and eras from 1900 to 20something
09:18:01  <Supercheese> Just say 'well, I'm simulating shunting/recoupling other wagons'
09:18:12  <Pikka> is going to end up with about 50 graphic variations :)
09:18:20  <andythenorth> do we mind if wagons / barges / truck trailers change appearance totally when autorefitting?
09:18:27  * Supercheese does not mind
09:18:28  <andythenorth> BANDIT has to do it I think
09:18:33  <andythenorth> I could do it in FISH
09:18:36  <andythenorth> for barges
09:18:36  <Supercheese> Esp since it happens like mad in this game
09:18:44  <Pikka> maybe we don't mind if truck trailers change?
09:18:53  <Pikka> we probably mind if ships change
09:18:55  <Supercheese> It simulates changing trailers
09:19:03  <Supercheese> Like the wagons above
09:19:12  <Supercheese> Ships, less analogy, but who cares
09:19:25  <Supercheese> autorefit is boss
09:20:06  <Pikka> we probably also mind if train wagons change, but then we probably already have plans to work around that via prop 25...

09:21:11  <Pikka> yes
09:21:15  <andythenorth> just remove the other transport types :|
09:21:40  <Pikka> just get peeter to add it to ships, no worries

09:22:24  <andythenorth> who knows
09:22:38  <andythenorth> certainly we all got bored of discussing it :P
09:22:39  <Pikka> why does your ship look different for different cargos anyway
09:22:45  <andythenorth> tankers innit
09:22:47  <Pikka> make tankers seperate models

17:47:14  <frosch123> provide a variety of balanced vehicles which give the player an interesting choice at any point of time
17:47:53  <frosch123> don't try to solve secondary gui issues by limiting the engine selection
17:48:12  <frosch123> except by providing decent retire early values

17:49:00  <frosch123> if you play with engines-never-expire and think there are too many choices, then you cannot be helped
17:49:24  <andythenorth> I think buy menu spam is a symptom - smell of a bad pattern
17:49:34  <andythenorth> not a problem in itself

17:49:56  <frosch123> [17:57] <frosch123> don't try to solve secondary gui issues by limiting the engine selection <- this also means to give the player better filter functions in the gui, like that fs task providing company-specific manual retirement

18:25:47  <NGC3982> Eddi|zuHause: I see.
18:26:05  <NGC3982> Eddi|zuHause: A Döner is a little roll of kebab-ish food, right?

18:28:16  <NGC3982> Eddi|zuHause: But yes, to return to subject, 100SEK and five double cheeseburgers is a lot of money and a lot of food for a fast food meal.

18:29:00  <NGC3982> Eddi|zuHause: Yes, i could. Didn't feel like it, though.
18:29:54  <NGC3982> A good meal of sushi usually ends up at 13-17€
18:30:12  <Eddi|zuHause> and a normal sized Döner may cost between 1,50€ in some parts of berlin to 6€ in munich or so
18:30:20  <NGC3982> At least around here. We don't really have fast food (as in 'lower quality') sushi in Kronoberg county.
18:30:48  <NGC3982> Eddi|zuHause: 1,50€ is a big city price.
18:31:07  <NGC3982> For most places in Sweden, cheap fast foods are limited to the biggest cities.
18:31:18  <NGC3982> Like the Malmö kebab/falaffel.
18:31:25  <michi_cc> Eddi|zuHause: I really don't want to know what I am eating with a 1,50€ Döner though. Ignorance is bliss ;)
18:31:34  <NGC3982> falafel*
18:32:29  <NGC3982> Not comparing what a € is worth, a "good" kebab/döner-ish meal in Sweden ends up around 6-9€.
18:32:42  <Eddi|zuHause> michi_cc: i think horsemeat would be the least of the problems :p
18:33:00  <frosch123> isn't horsemeat actually more expensive than cow?
18:33:19  <frosch123> horse butchers always appeared like something special to me
18:33:20  <NGC3982> Real horsemeat, made for horsemeat, yes.
18:33:25  <NGC3982> Much, much more expencive.
18:33:48  <frosch123> and horse sausages are usually quite small
18:34:00  <NGC3982> Though, horsemeat as in "that dead horse we want to get rid off" can work out economic wise.
18:34:19  <frosch123> how many dead horses could there be?
18:34:20  <NGC3982> Yes, real horse meat feels like a speciality for me.
18:35:13  <NGC3982> frosch123: Well, the current investigation shows that some Swedish frozen foods contained Romanian horse meat. Maybe they made a deal and bought your-random-local-dead-animal and made meat with it.
18:35:17  <NGC3982> Heh, "made meat".
18:35:30  <Eddi|zuHause> that's only because there are fewer "horse herds" than "cow herds"
18:35:47  <NGC3982> It's really kind of scary.

18:38:23  <Eddi|zuHause> that always puzzled me... there is no sane reason why meat for frozen products needs to be shipped all through europe to be processed
18:38:46  <Eddi|zuHause> so why is it done?
18:38:48  <frosch123> shipping is just too cheap :p
18:38:51  <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: because someone put too many refrigerated trucks in a newgrf, and now a purpose must be found :P

18:39:15  <NGC3982> Shipping within EU is almost for free.
18:39:27  <NGC3982> And Romaian laws (i guess) allow cheaper production.
18:40:11  <NGC3982> Swedish meat production is extremely costly.

18:42:43  <NGC3982> And we have a lot of food from France.
18:43:06  <andythenorth> hmm how about a bigger fishing boat?
18:43:12  <NGC3982> andythenorth: Yes!
18:43:17  <andythenorth> what's that grf with fishing grounds in?
18:43:23  <NGC3982> andythenorth: Also: A transformer ninja turtle robot.
18:43:36  <NGC3982> andythenorth: FIRS?
18:44:29  <andythenorth> so that standard fishing boat is 35t
18:44:57  <andythenorth> but fishing grounds can produce in a range up to 64t / month
18:45:07  <andythenorth> so big trawler...refittable to certain other cargos
18:45:14  <andythenorth> done
18:45:22  <andythenorth> think I've rebalanced everything :)

23:18:05  <Pikka> I've said "hopper", it might be boxy depending, again, on graphics :P

23:18:37  <Pikka> there is indeed really no need :]
23:18:58  <andythenorth> bricks :P
23:19:32  <Pikka> also, things like "realistically slow" early freight wagons would disadvantage those sets which have speed as their thing.

23:23:47  <Pikka> any futuriztik trukz or can the 21st century bugger off?
23:23:52  <andythenorth> yes
23:24:00  <Eddi|zuHause> (for the respective cargo classes)
23:24:10  <andythenorth> I see a lot of futuristic concept trucks
23:24:26  <Pikka> if I wanted to be really minimalistic, eddi, I could have one wagon that carries everything
23:24:26  <andythenorth> and then they turn up with a diesel engine, looking like last year's volvo, with new lights
23:24:27  <Pikka> but I don't
23:24:36  <andythenorth> so what should I use for VERY LARGE FERRY (1600 PAX)
23:24:37  <andythenorth> ?
23:24:58  <Pikka> ew
23:25:04  <Pikka> I dunno, do you need one?
23:25:12  <andythenorth> think so
23:25:13  <andythenorth> might smell
23:25:26  <andythenorth> I think they ought to be fun in big cities
23:25:28  <Pikka> you had a big ferry, didn't you?
23:25:37  <andythenorth> yes, this one replaces it
23:25:44  <andythenorth> after 45 years or something
23:25:55  <andythenorth> I always use hydrofoils personally
23:26:01  <andythenorth> faster > bigger
23:26:04  <Pikka> yes
23:26:05  <Eddi|zuHause> haven't you removed like 5 ferries, just put one back?
23:26:19  <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: most of the ferries survived
23:26:26  <andythenorth> they're mostly quite different
23:26:35  <Eddi|zuHause> hm, ok
23:26:39  <Pikka> I got about as far as planning the ferries for fission
23:26:40  <Zuu> andythenorth: a futuristic ferry that resizes passengers to a 10th of their usual size when on the ferry :-)
23:26:50  <andythenorth> could do a supercat
23:26:52  <andythenorth> fast
23:26:54  <Pikka> the first one is actually the largest D:
23:27:17  <Pikka> I should probably swap its capacity with the second one...
23:27:35  <Pikka> that looks a bit better
23:27:48  <Pikka> anyway, the largest ferry I had was 320 pax
23:28:16  <Pikka> which admittedly might be a bit small, especially if people aren't playing with TaI-like towns and small maps :o
23:28:50  <Eddi|zuHause> old fish probably had too many in-between steps
23:29:12  <Eddi|zuHause> there's not much point in having a ship twice the size, just use two ships
23:29:12  <Pikka> it's all about the min/max
23:29:20  <Eddi|zuHause> but 10 times makes a serious difference
23:29:37  <andythenorth> yeah, but 10k pax is rather a lot :P
23:29:45  <Eddi|zuHause> especially if you consider running costs
23:30:42  <andythenorth> Pikka: even TaI can turn out a lot of pax
23:30:54  <andythenorth> big cat http://hhvferry.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/IMG_8536_TN.jpg

23:54:45  <Pikka> there might be a parameter to limit them to passengers and express, but there might not.

23:55:21  <Supercheese> Vacuum tube trains were pax/mail/goods only, and users demanded freight wagons...
23:55:36  <Supercheese> "must ... transport ... coal... at Mach 19
23:55:38  <Supercheese> "
23:55:49  <Superuser> oh boy
23:55:57  <Superuser> {LTBLUE}- {CARGO_LONG} ({CARGO_SHORT}) (x{NUM})
23:56:04  <Supercheese> Although with a vacuum no speed of sound...
23:56:09  <Superuser> (yes, I'm at it again, hopefull I can finish the last 1k string before ottd 1.3)
23:56:28  <Superuser> × is the multiplication sign in Unicode, not x (that's an x)
23:57:02  <Superuser> change it? :D
23:57:11  <Superuser> this is not the only string affected
23:57:18  <Superuser> there's maybe 10, 20
23:57:35  <Superuser> Anyone?
23:58:35  <Zuu> Superuser: What is the name of that string?
23:58:43  <Zuu> STR_...
23:58:57  <Superuser> ah I forgot
23:58:57  <Superuser> STR_VEHICLE_DETAILS_CARGO_EMPTY
23:59:11  <Superuser> there's quite a few of them, I'd grep for x{NUM}
23:59:22  <Superuser> dunno if grep can search multiple files though :(
