05:48:40  <Clockworker_> that's because
05:48:44  <Clockworker_> you're a cheeky scrublord
06:02:11  <V453000> !
06:03:14  <Clockworker_> you too
06:03:58  <V453000> ._.
06:21:27  <Ethereal_Whisper> mfw I build a network and realize after the fact that one side of a RoRo station is totally unneeded because there are no pickup stations upstream of it
06:22:47  <V453000> :d
06:22:51  <V453000> happens
06:23:29  <Ethereal_Whisper> I actually just looked again and can use that side of the RoRo for future passenger service
06:23:35  <Ethereal_Whisper> ... wait no it's serving a power plan
06:23:41  <Ethereal_Whisper> nevermind still unnecessary lol
06:30:05  <Clockworker_> regardless of how long we've been playing
06:30:15  <Clockworker_> we all do some dumb things now and then
06:30:39  <Clockworker_> it's common to have to fix someone else's wrong signal or have yours fixed, in coop
06:31:23  <Ethereal_Whisper> Yeah, I built a huge passenger network yesterday and was super proud of it, then watched the whole thing implode because of a single block signal facing the wrong way on accident
06:34:01  <tyteen4a03> oops
06:34:22  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://i.imgur.com/7CxgQtH.png ... why the hell is this train making a U-turn?
06:34:42  <Clockworker_> pffft
06:34:57  <Clockworker_> you should turn off the option to allow 90 degrees turns
06:35:53  <Ethereal_Whisper> Now it's stuck on the left side platform
06:36:46  <Clockworker_> check path/orders/signalling
06:37:45  <Ethereal_Whisper> I must have a bad junction somewhere downstream... the other train coming from that platform made it out but just returned on the left side
06:39:31  <Ethereal_Whisper> And I made them crash trying to get them back to the start. Whoops
06:43:23  <Ethereal_Whisper> I found my mistake. Herp
06:46:22  <Clockworker_> haha
06:46:38  <Ethereal_Whisper> There was a break in the line downstream
07:02:25  <Clockworker_> oh man
07:02:36  <Clockworker_> neurologist and psychologist one after the other tomorrow
07:02:41  <Clockworker_> feeling so lazy
07:02:43  <Clockworker_> but gotta do it
07:03:33  <Ethereal_Whisper> I'm seeing a counselor tomorrow and I don't want to see her
07:04:50  <Clockworker_> fun huh
07:04:56  <Ethereal_Whisper> Yeah.
07:04:56  <Clockworker_> I don't "don't want to" see her
07:05:03  <Clockworker_> I just hate going out
07:10:53  <tyteen4a03> I have no desire to go to therapist sessions, luckily they were years ago
07:12:41  <Clockworker_> I really don't mind the talk, I actually enjoy it
07:13:05  <Clockworker_> the problem is going, and then trying to turn my life around and failing (^:
07:13:17  <Clockworker_> anyway bed time, toodles
07:13:20  <Ethereal_Whisper> I could share why I don't want to go, but it's pretty personal information and might be a controversial topic
07:13:22  <coopserver> <tyteen4a03> heh
07:13:36  <coopserver> <tyteen4a03> bye
08:46:04  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://i.imgur.com/L0q2rnI.png not the best junction I've ever built. =/
08:46:33  <Ethereal_Whisper> 6 side lines connecting to a main line. Have a few tight turns on it D:
09:22:34  <Ethereal_Whisper> Also, that feel when you realize it's faster and more efficient to use a random nearby power plant drop station to reverse a passenger train instead of building extra track because you're low on room
10:35:13  <tyteen4a03> ideally trains should only reverse at the end of the line
10:40:02  <Ethereal_Whisper> True.
10:43:42  <tyteen4a03> you can also consider merging 2 pairs of tracks before they reach the mainline, then you'd have a 4-way instead of a 6-way
10:44:22  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://i.imgur.com/LroUD8Q.png I think it's about as well as I could have done with the room I had
10:44:53  <tyteen4a03> you may want to copy beeching
10:49:29  *** Hiddenfunstuff has joined #openttdcoop
11:11:10  <Ethereal_Whisper> Found out why some of my passenger trains were occasionally trying to take a side line towards a livestock pickup station... I forgot to install block signals on much of the line they're atually supposed to go down >.>
11:11:31  <hylje> awkward
11:11:43  <Ethereal_Whisper> Yeah

13:24:19  <Ethereal_Whisper> I now have every city on my map connected! :D
13:24:24  <hylje> good job!
13:24:42  <Ethereal_Whisper> The eastern half of the map is extremely cramped and some of the lines are very weird
13:26:15  <Ethereal_Whisper> And the eastern end of my east-west trunk is at a station that's probably going to be over capacity soon since I didn't intend to use it as the end of the line initially. The dominoes just fell that way over time, and in the meantime the city has expanded around it a little
13:26:20  *** tycoondemon has quit IRC
13:27:29  <Clockworker_> nice
13:27:30  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://i.imgur.com/dIoBwTg.png it's Frendwood Mines. Think it would be a worth it to build a second terminal with the tracks facing south?
13:28:20  <Ethereal_Whisper> The side line it connects to running north just goes to a passenger-only loop, it wouldn't kill me if the overflow terminal had to not connect to it
13:29:03  <Ethereal_Whisper> Or if you feel like it I could save the game and host it on multiplayer for ideas
13:30:33  <Ethereal_Whisper> Wow this map only has ONE fucking sawmill
13:30:42  <Ethereal_Whisper> I was going to do forests and sawmills next
13:30:43  <Ethereal_Whisper> >.>
13:31:04  <V453000> :)
13:31:04  <Ethereal_Whisper> I'll do that and then fund another one

13:53:18  <Clockworker_> oh god why
13:53:57  <Ethereal_Whisper> I'm from one of the hottest cities with over a million people in the world, your complaints of hot weather fall on deaf ears for me :P
13:54:18  <Clockworker_> but is it humid?
13:54:23  <Clockworker_> because humid heat is worse
13:54:27  <Ethereal_Whisper> Nope, arid
13:54:29  <Ethereal_Whisper> And I know

13:54:36  <Clockworker_> yeah
13:54:38  <Clockworker_> it's humid here
13:54:50  <Ethereal_Whisper> Today's high is only 31
13:54:56  <Clockworker_> nice little coat of sweat

14:13:14  <Clockworker_> why would it be fun

17:46:21  <Ethereal_Whisper> Nice
17:46:43  <Ethereal_Whisper> I'm playing on a map without coastlines or rivers so no ship income for me
17:46:53  <Ethereal_Whisper> There's an oil rig randomly in the corner which I might base an oil network around later
17:47:00  <tyteen4a03> Mark: oops, I fell asleep
17:47:06  <Arveen> im useing the ships as feeders

17:47:15  <coopserver> *** Game unpaused (number of players)
17:48:02  <Ethereal_Whisper> How can I check an offshore oil rig's production? I'm wondering how many ships I need and how many trains will transfer a good amount of it if I build an oil network
17:48:04  <Arveen> like feed one train station with up to 10 oil rigs
17:48:17  <tyteen4a03> click on the rig
17:48:20  <tyteen4a03> under the station
17:48:22  <Arveen> just click on the label
17:48:30  <Ethereal_Whisper> OH
17:48:36  <Ethereal_Whisper> Lol, I was just getting the station
17:48:46  <Ethereal_Whisper> 3170 gallons last month
17:49:46  <Ethereal_Whisper> I'll start with just one ship and 2 trains
17:52:45  <Arveen> thats the biggest one i got in this game http://mrftp.mooo.com:20080/tmp/Oilrigs.jpg
17:52:59  <Ethereal_Whisper> Wow
17:53:13  <Arveen> all oil gets delivered to that top left station
17:53:24  <Arveen> 18 trains picking it up from there :)
17:53:27  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://i.imgur.com/S9URzYk.png this is all I have
17:53:42  <Arveen> everything starts out small :)
17:53:44  <Ethereal_Whisper> (In the middle of building a RoRo at Ganfield Heliport
17:54:06  <Arveen> im playing this map for like 3 months now
17:54:10  <Ethereal_Whisper> RoRo stations with bypass lines to deliver drops <3
17:54:17  <Arveen> :D
17:54:56  <Ethereal_Whisper> Especially when you build one only to discover that one side is totally unnecessary because there are no pickup stations upstream of it in that directon
17:55:00  *** tycoondemon has joined #openttdcoop
17:55:08  <Ethereal_Whisper> #rekt
17:55:27  <Arveen> well there maybe some in the future
17:55:57  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://i.imgur.com/AuFKzXr.png
17:56:09  <Ethereal_Whisper> No coal mines to be found there
17:56:21  <Ethereal_Whisper> I don't think I can fund resource sources can I?
17:56:32  <Arveen> it can be enabled in the settings
17:56:42  <Arveen> but besides that the game builds new ones itself over the years
17:56:57  <Arveen> also closes unused ones
17:57:20  <Ethereal_Whisper> I've also discovered that oil wells eventually dry up
17:57:31  <Arveen> yeah
17:57:45  <Arveen> i also had mines close on me with good service
17:57:48  <Jam35> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/51134233/999.png
17:57:53  <Jam35> this is legit
17:57:56  <Ethereal_Whisper> I kept getting a message that some train had a negative profit and ignored it for a few years, then finally clicked on it and saw it was sitting at a station no longer next to anything and was an oil tanker train
17:57:59  <Jam35> don't ask :D
17:58:01  <Arveen> this is also crazy :P
17:58:18  <Ethereal_Whisper> Arveen: hey, I just met you, and this is crazy
17:58:25  <Ethereal_Whisper> But here's my number, so call me maybe?
17:59:00  <Arveen> does it overflow after 999.999.999.999.999 ?
17:59:08  <Jam35> no
17:59:12  <Arveen> also nice year @ 3061
17:59:19  <Arveen> my longest game ever was like 26xx
17:59:27  <Jam35> started in 1970 ish
17:59:39  <Jam35> I only ever played one game
17:59:47  <Jam35> when I first started
18:00:00  <Arveen> how many trains are in this one ?
18:00:10  <Jam35> only 1500 ish
18:00:11  *** absolutis has quit IRC
18:00:13  <Arveen> oh
18:00:18  <Arveen> map size ?
18:00:31  <Jam35> er idk actually
18:00:45  <Jam35> I think 1034x1024
18:00:51  <Arveen> the one i posted is a 1024x1024 map and like half full
18:01:21  <Jam35> I would post a save but it is embarassing :D
18:01:28  <Arveen> what are you doing for 8628 "other" expenses
18:01:35  <V453000> sayvvvv
18:01:37  <Arveen> for rigging the finances - haha
18:01:51  <Jam35> I have no idea what goes in there
18:02:37  <Jam35> it is 512x512
18:03:22  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://puu.sh/on4k6/bafdf80abf.sav this is my save if anyone's interested
18:03:39  <Arveen> lets take a look ;D
18:04:55  <Jam35> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/51134233/map.png
18:05:05  <Arveen> looks nice - no jams
18:05:46  <Ethereal_Whisper> Eh, just found one on the east-west trunk. A side line is too small for that many trains at a pickup station that the queue to get into it was blocking my east-west trunk
18:06:00  <Ethereal_Whisper> Stupid farm being so close to my trunk
18:06:08  <Arveen> you could build some bus services in the cities to feed their train stations
18:06:22  <Ethereal_Whisper> I could, if I cared for money
18:06:35  <Ethereal_Whisper> I have plenty of it as you can see :)
18:06:40  <Arveen> yeah
18:06:47  <Arveen> but still
18:06:54  <Ethereal_Whisper> Normally I'm not used to seeing 8 figures unless I cheated
18:06:59  <Arveen> just to fill up those trains
18:07:00  <Ethereal_Whisper> I legitimately did not cheat at all in this game
18:07:15  <Ethereal_Whisper> I should clone all the passenger trains I have
18:07:31  <Arveen> oh there is a big jam
18:07:35  <Ethereal_Whisper> Before going to hospital this morning I went through and cloned every single train I had
18:07:39  <Arveen> fort frutway
18:07:56  <Arveen> nice map @ jam35
18:08:00  <Arveen> ill get one from my game - sec
18:08:22  <Ethereal_Whisper> hm, I'm not seeing the jam here
18:08:36  <Ethereal_Whisper> That's an extremely high-capacity terminus station, I'm surprised there was one
18:09:54  <Arveen> http://mrftp.mooo.com:20080/tmp/Map.jpg
18:10:05  <Arveen> well not half full - maybe 40%'ish
18:10:15  <Arveen> ~700 trains so far tho
18:10:23  <Ethereal_Whisper> I think I found a good way to kill time
18:10:29  <Ethereal_Whisper> Convert my entire network to electric
18:10:32  <Arveen> :D
18:10:38  <Ethereal_Whisper> It's 2003 in-game, that would be handy
18:11:09  <Ethereal_Whisper> Monorail would be better technically, but if I try to do that I'll blow everything up
18:11:28  <Arveen> well there is the rail upgrade tool which makes it pretty easy
18:11:43  <Arveen> just replacing the trains can be a pita
18:11:50  <Ethereal_Whisper> True, but my diesel trains can run on the electrified track in the meantime
18:12:19  <Arveen> i like to use the nuts rails or the universal rail road grf
18:12:43  <Ethereal_Whisper> Uhhh... where's the convert rail tool again?
18:13:00  <Arveen> last or 2nd last icon in the build rail menu
18:13:07  <Ethereal_Whisper> Oh, fail, I can't read
18:13:10  <Arveen> its like a rail with an yellow arrow
18:13:12  <Arveen> or some
18:13:15  <Arveen> *or so
18:13:39  <Ethereal_Whisper> Yeah I found it
18:13:49  <Ethereal_Whisper> Don't I have to rebuild all the depots too?
18:13:51  <Arveen> this also upgrade rail in depots and stations
18:14:27  <Ethereal_Whisper> Now to upgrade all 173 of my trains...
18:14:38  <Ethereal_Whisper> This is going to take me a while.
18:14:39  <Arveen> there is an auto replace feature
18:14:50  <Ethereal_Whisper> Eh?
18:15:06  <Arveen> go to the train menu where you can see all trains
18:15:32  <Ethereal_Whisper> Oh I see
18:15:48  <Arveen> you specify an current locomotive or wagons and then set an upgrade one
18:16:01  <Arveen> once the train enters the depot for service or forced they get replaced/upgraded
18:16:48  <Ethereal_Whisper> Damnit, the faster locomotive is a size 1 and the size 0.5 locomotive is only 10mph faster than what I currently have
18:17:03  <Ethereal_Whisper> Would enabling car removal shrink them all by 1 car automatically to compensate?
18:17:54  <Arveen> this feature removes wagons if the train length increases due to lets say switching to a dual headed locomotive so the train length stays the same
18:18:01  <Ethereal_Whisper> Ah okay
18:18:01  <Arveen> it doesnt add afaik
18:18:04  <Ethereal_Whisper> Well, here goes nothing
18:18:35  <Ethereal_Whisper> I should read tooltips before asking stupid questions
18:18:37  <Ethereal_Whisper> :P
18:18:40  <Arveen> np :)
18:19:55  <Ethereal_Whisper> Would there eventually be a streamlined way to replace electrified rail and trains with monorails or maglevs, or will that just be a giant pain in the ass when it happens?
18:20:13  <Arveen> when useing universal rail its no problem - works the same way
18:20:48  <Arveen> without im not sure - i think i started useing univesal rail because it was a pain to hand-upgrade to mono or maglev
18:22:31  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://i.imgur.com/x8RfBJQ.png and now I have a giant traffic jam due to the faster trains lol
18:22:49  <Arveen> hehe
18:23:07  <Ethereal_Whisper> Maybe it's just growing pains if they had to go to a strangely-located depot before getting back on track
18:23:09  <Arveen> faster trains also means more cargo transported on average
18:23:25  <Arveen> so you might need fewer trains for some industries/cities
18:23:25  <Ethereal_Whisper> I play with maintenance/breakdowns off so I put depots wherever to build trains, and then they get ignored otherwise
18:24:00  <Ethereal_Whisper> The jam cleared a bit... let's see if it stays that way
18:24:39  <Arveen> when i upgraded from a ~220kmh locomotive to a ~400kmh locomotive i removed almost 1/3 of the trains
18:26:19  <Ethereal_Whisper> Yeah, I think upgrading to electric has pushed my network to its capacity
18:26:42  <Ethereal_Whisper> I see minor jams occasionally now, but it's not terrible now that the initial shock of trains going strange places to find a depot to upgrade looks to be over
18:27:28  <Ethereal_Whisper> Ok so I have another question which may be dumb
18:27:29  <Arveen> yeah when i upgraded i had like 2 years of jams and losses till the network unjamed
18:28:13  <Ethereal_Whisper> So I've got a few RoRo stations with bypass lines. I've heard/read about stuff like "right of way" and was wondering if I could signal the station to give priority to a train coming through on the bypass line and make trains wait to get out of the station
18:28:36  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://i.imgur.com/L9Gx3Cs.png i.e. this one
18:29:29  <Arveen> there are no signals at the entry ?
18:29:56  <hylje> you can convey signal information further away using a non-line rail and pre/combo signals
18:29:58  <Ethereal_Whisper> Oh there are, hang on
18:30:24  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://i.imgur.com/cANz9ym.png
18:30:25  <Arveen> and yeah you could build an priority check to the exit to make leaving trains wait
18:30:49  <hylje> so you can make the lower priority track wait until there's enough unoccupied signal blocks around it
18:33:06  <Arveen> hmm i dont see any
18:33:14  <Arveen> im thinking : http://mrftp.mooo.com:20080/tmp/Signals.jpg
18:33:46  <Arveen> and yeah a combo in the branch maybe
18:33:54  <Ethereal_Whisper> I have a more pressing one now... I just tried the Universal Rail GRF and tried to upgrade everything to monorails... it wasn't able to convert anything the trains were already on and made everything blow up
18:33:58  <Ethereal_Whisper> I'm glad I saved first
18:34:00  <Ethereal_Whisper> Lol
18:34:07  <Ethereal_Whisper> (I mean I had to, to enable it anyway)
18:34:35  <hylje> depot your trains before wielding the upgrade brush
18:34:40  <Ethereal_Whisper> Ah cheers
18:34:49  <Ethereal_Whisper> Any way to do that non-manually, hylje?
18:34:53  <Arveen> aye - send everything to the depot - then start the upgrade galore
18:35:00  <hylje> there's a button somewhere to send absolutely everything to depot
18:35:27  <Arveen> there is replace vechicle - send to depot - send to service in that menu
18:37:38  <Ethereal_Whisper> Found it
18:37:50  <Ethereal_Whisper> Now to just wait for everything to stop running
18:38:54  <Ethereal_Whisper> And then wait a few years for everything to unjam
18:39:38  <Arveen> http://mrftp.mooo.com:20080/tmp/bypass.sav
18:39:45  <Arveen> build a little bypass example with priority check
18:40:52  <Arveen> this could easy look itself up btw
18:40:57  <Arveen> just a quick and dirty build :)
18:41:01  <Arveen> *lock
18:41:11  <Ethereal_Whisper> Thanks :)
18:42:08  <Clockworker_> oh man
18:42:17  <Clockworker_> my neurologist looked at my EEG
18:42:20  <Clockworker_> and asked a CT scan
18:42:23  <Clockworker_> RIP in peace
18:42:49  <Clockworker_> it's probably openttdcoop
18:42:56  <Clockworker_> fried my brain
18:43:09  <Arveen> im getting an MRT of my back in a couple of weeks
18:46:41  <Arveen> not ottd's fault :P
18:48:57  <Clockworker_> yeah I don't know what's up yet
18:49:05  <Clockworker_> it's a slowdown in the frontal lobe
18:49:11  <Clockworker_> but that can mean many things, hence CT
18:49:17  <coopserver> *** Mark has left the game (Leaving)
18:49:59  <Arveen> kinda the same for me. they have no clue what happend
18:50:36  <Arveen> one morning i was in the bathroom and tried to pick up the scale from the floor - then i had this insane backpain and then passed out from it
18:51:17  <Clockworker_> damn man
18:51:17  <Ethereal_Whisper> Um
18:51:34  <Ethereal_Whisper> No monorail locomotives available but I can build monorail lines? Cool.
18:51:38  <Arveen> yeah ... pretty sick when you pass out due to insane pain. never had that before and dont need it again
18:51:48  <Clockworker_> it was only once at least?
18:51:58  <Ethereal_Whisper> OUch Arveen
18:51:59  <Arveen> yeah. that was like 3 weeks ago
18:52:08  <Clockworker_> oh, really recent
18:52:14  <Ethereal_Whisper> The last time I passed out from pain was when a nurse was scrubbing the dead skin off my burn wounds
18:52:28  <Clockworker_> ouch
18:52:32  <Clockworker_> my sister does that
18:52:38  <Clockworker_> she's a health worker
18:53:01  <Ethereal_Whisper> It's literally the most intense pain I've ever felt
18:53:02  <Arveen> i was lucky my old lady was still home and found me
18:53:05  <Mark> night folks
18:53:05  <Ethereal_Whisper> My burns are 2nd degree
18:53:12  <Clockworker_> debridement
18:54:21  <Ethereal_Whisper> http://puu.sh/on7Zk/5466fb5cf8.jpg that was this morning, after 3 weeks of healing
18:54:25  <Clockworker_> I've had severe sunburn once, it raised blisters, but I don't know if it qualified as 2nd degree
18:54:39  <Arveen> my doc said it might be a slipped disc in the spine or something -hence the MRT now to find out whats going on. right now the pain is handable
18:54:48  <Clockworker_> wew
18:54:56  <Arveen> ummmm
18:58:59  <Ethereal_Whisper> Sorry Arveen was sharing that picture too much
18:59:14  <Arveen> np
18:59:30  <V453000> Ethereal_Whisper: how did you manage that?
18:59:43  <Arveen> my cousine sends me all kinds of scary pics - she works at a hospital
18:59:54  <Ethereal_Whisper> V453000: spilled hot oil (it was burning) in trying to put out a kitchen fire
19:00:01  <Ethereal_Whisper> I put the fire out, but burned my legs in the process
19:00:04  <Arveen> like "HEY check out this guy who fell into a knife block .... 7 times - no attempted suicide tho"
19:00:20  <Clockworker_> that sucks
19:00:22  <V453000> :d
19:00:25  <tyteen4a03> coop game says Failed to save game: Failed to initialise compressor
19:00:31  <Clockworker_> my mom is specially scared of kitchen fires and burns

19:01:37  <V453000> from what did you get the fire?
19:01:44  <Ethereal_Whisper> Huh?
19:01:49  <Arveen> i once left a pan on the stove - forgot to turn it off and went away. when i got back several ours later that thing was glowing red
19:01:50  <V453000> what was the fire source
19:02:11  <V453000> the oven?
19:02:47  <Ethereal_Whisper> Frying pan filled with oil
19:03:03  <Clockworker_> flamable material, oxygen and a spark I think
19:03:05  <Clockworker_> :P
19:03:49  <V453000> didn't you say you tried to put out the fire with oil? :D
19:04:00  <Ethereal_Whisper> I didn't see it specifically what caused it. I was heating up oil to cook something, then I hear the distinct sound of something bursting into flames, look over (was sitting at kitchen table) and the pan was on fire
19:04:27  <V453000> :d
19:04:31  <Ethereal_Whisper> No, I picked it up and dropped int in my lap; the pan bounced off my knees (I was in a wheelchair at the time), hit the floor, and splashed the oil all over my legs
19:04:52  <tyteen4a03> my flatmate turned on the stove one and went to sleep; the pan melted with the stove the next morning
19:04:55  <Arveen> burning oil is the worst
19:04:59  <tyteen4a03> :(
19:05:45  <Arveen> sounds like my pan. i got home and was wondering whats that red glowing thing in the dark
19:05:50  <Clockworker_> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/71312462/ShareX/2016/04/B9KDi1MIQAA9fKd.jpg
19:06:00  <Arveen> was only like 2 or 3 hours so it didnt melt yet
19:06:34  <V453000> :d
19:06:39  <V453000> yeah oil is a bitch
