00:31:47  <BFM> Hahaha, just read this;
00:31:49  <BFM> He didn't say "literacy". He said "computer literacy". Here are all the things they can learn from it (often in this order):
00:31:51  <BFM> 1) How to use a mouse.
00:31:53  <BFM> 2) How to launch and use a web browser.
00:31:55  <BFM> 3) What local files and folders are, and why it's a good idea to save your favorite videos locally in your own folder.
00:31:56  <BFM> 4) How to hide things stored locally so your parent, boss, girlfriend, etc. can't find it.
00:31:58  <BFM> 5) How to install and use P2P software (often followed by how to install anti-malware software).
00:31:59  <BFM> 6) How to locate and install video and audio codecs.
00:32:01  <BFM> 7) How to find and use anonymous proxies to circumvent those pesky web filtering devices.
00:32:02  <BFM> 8 ) How to set up their own proxies, write scripts or programs, and/or hack the filtering device to circumvent it.
00:32:04  <BFM> Some kids end up becoming programmers, IT specialists, or even hackers just to be able to see a boob. ;-)
00:32:58  <Rubidium> what do we think of http://bugs.openttd.org/task/473 ? Should we remove the landscaping button, or should we make it possible to have the two landscaping GUIs open at the same time in the scenario editor?
00:33:14  <Sacro> mmmmmm, it still skiips when you want to select Position of main toolbar
00:33:18  <Sacro> its hard to select centre
00:34:52  <Bjarni> BFM: good one
00:34:58  <Darkvater> finally
00:35:07  <Darkvater> stupid connection acting up all the time :(
00:35:16  <Bjarni> I could write apps before even knowing what P2P is.... you see it had to be invented first :P
00:35:27  *** mosfet [~opera@ACCE760F.ipt.aol.com] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
00:35:29  <Darkvater> Rubidium: easiest is to make it open the normal scenario-landscaping
00:36:02  <Rubidium> that would be something like: http://rubidium.student.utwente.nl/openttd/fs473.diff
00:36:32  <Darkvater> what's the 1 for?
00:37:13  <Rubidium> otherwise you cannot have both landscaping GUIs open at the same time
00:37:16  <Darkvater> Rubidium: I think your diff doesn't open the _scen_edit_land_gen_desc
00:37:31  <Darkvater> hmm but wait
00:38:15  <Bjarni> <BFM>	He didn't say "literacy". He said "computer literacy" <-- who is he?
00:38:32  <Bjarni> just some random guy?
00:38:42  <Rubidium> hmm, oh, you meant something different :)
00:38:49  <Darkvater> Rubidium: either open the 'land generation' window, or remove the widget
00:38:59  <Darkvater> don't open 2 kinds of terraforming tools
00:39:00  <ln-> could it be the mysterious "man" who does a lot of things in swedish, german and probably danish?

00:40:11  <Bjarni> you mean that Japanese guy?
00:40:26  <BFM> Heya Bjarni, I read it on Slashdot ^_^ http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/12/27/1838238&from=rss
00:40:36  <Bjarni> using foreign languages to cover his trail
00:41:22  <ln-> no, the "man" as in "man brukar äta varje dag" :)
00:41:43  <ln-> a busy man
00:42:34  <Rubidium> Darkvater: thus as in the updated diff?
00:43:43  <Darkvater> you chose opening terraform gui?
00:43:51  <Darkvater> removing button is less code ;p
00:44:29  <Rubidium> hmm, can do that too, but then I need to do some basic maths :)
00:44:48  <SGulsetg> How to load a heightmap from console?
00:45:01  <Darkvater> I think that might be better though. Only one place for the terraforming in the scenario editor
00:46:15  <Rubidium> ./openttd -g <filename of heightmap> ?
00:46:36  <SGulsetg> windows

00:58:04  <CIA-1> rubidium * r7586 /trunk/road_gui.c: -Fix (FS#473): remove the Landscaping toolbar option from the Road Construction toolbar in the scenario editor, as there is another Lanscaping GUI in the scenario editor and launching that one could confuse users.
00:59:16  <Athorium> wtf
00:59:20  <Athorium> what are those signals??? http://www.tt-forums.net/files/sig_137.jpg
00:59:33  <Tuzlo> semiphore
00:59:36  <Rubidium> PBS signals
00:59:38  <Tuzlo> arent they?
00:59:43  *** KritiK [~Maxim@ppp83-237-101-160.pppoe.mtu-net.ru] has quit [Quit: Leaving]
00:59:47  <Athorium> from where?
00:59:56  <Athorium> I don't know about this special PBS
01:00:22  <Rubidium> only thing you need to know is that the implementation is and was too buggy
01:00:32  <Athorium> hmmm
01:00:35  <Sacro> if the game detects multiple incoming clients, please can it pause the game till everyone is in]#
01:00:41  <Athorium> but is implemented for OpenTTD?
01:00:43  <glx> those signals are not PBS
01:01:18  <glx> they are yellow signals but not implemented
01:01:23  <Athorium> I readed something about a signals with multiple status, that can make the train to slow down their velocity
01:01:34  <Athorium> is this?
01:01:59  <Rubidium> hmm, then they look too much like PBS signals :)
01:02:09  <glx> yes that's the use of yellow signals
01:02:12  <Athorium> uhmmm, PBS are more "poor" than this
01:02:21  <Athorium>  glx and runs "ok"?
01:02:29  <glx> but, as said, not implemented
01:02:44  <Athorium> can be implemented in a near future?
01:03:31  <glx> in future maybe, in near future I don't think
01:03:44  <Bjarni> I would not hold your breath if I were you
01:04:02  <Athorium> oh.. :( why good things not be implemented... :(
01:04:02  <Bjarni> it's not the next feature to be added
01:04:27  <Athorium> :(
01:04:52  <Rubidium> Athorium: time & impact of changes
01:05:09  <Athorium> u mean, a lot of changes in OpenTTD?
01:05:41  <glx> this feature will need a full rewrite of signal code
01:06:00  <Bjarni> Athorium: look at the changelog for 0.5.0 RC1. It's not like we aren't doing anything
01:06:03  <Rubidium> not to forget the train controllers
01:06:18  <Athorium>  Bjarni I follow changelog every day :P
01:06:28  <Bjarni> even better
01:07:25  <Athorium> I waiting a response for  MiHaMiX to be a part of translate on webtranslator
01:07:31  <Athorium> * translate team
01:08:34  <Athorium> but MiHaMiX no respond me :(
01:09:58  <Rubidium> Athorium: MiHaMiX has been on away (for work and vacation), has a backlog and currently has a bad internet connection
01:10:36  <izhirahider> and since there are 3 translators for your language he might probably have to boot someone off before :P
01:10:44  <Athorium> oh..and no ones can add me to spanish translate team?
01:11:03  <Athorium> but the language not translated... 3 translators and no 100% completed... -_-
01:11:35  <Rubidium> there are 41 bad strings and 41 pending strings, so I suppose they've translated the last few strings
01:12:45  <Athorium> i'm not sure...
01:12:54  <Athorium> this strings have a lot of time without translate... :S
01:13:02  <Sacro> Can someone grab 0.5.0RC1, Join Kirk's Server, (pass 12345) and tell me why the trains are renamed?
01:13:05  <Athorium> and my game continue with those strings in english :P
01:13:59  <CIA-1> bjarni * r7587 /trunk/readme.txt: -Change: [OSX] updated readme about compiling a universal binary as the flag name changed, but didn't change in the readme
01:14:25  <Bjarni> maybe it's more like a documentation change/fix
01:14:31  <Rubidium> Athorium: the translation happened since the last webtranslator commit
01:15:53  <Athorium> uhmmm u mean that spanish translation are translated 100%?
01:16:41  <glx> Spanish 41 bad strings, 41 strings pending, 3 translators assigned
01:16:44  <izhirahider> Athorium, http://translator2.openttd.org/languages/GlobalStat
01:17:06  <glx> so it looks like all is translated and waiting for commit
01:17:07  <Athorium> exact, 41 strings pending...
01:17:09  <Rubidium> I mean it is very likely they are translated, but I've got no certainty
01:17:54  <Athorium> a lot of time passed and any new string actualized...
01:18:38  <Rubidium> well, committing to trunk for _every_ changed string is not good either, so it usually is one commit a day
01:19:13  <Athorium> I can translate it in a one day
01:19:46  <Athorium> well, I think that I need to wait  MiHaMiX response
01:21:06  <Athorium> uhmmm
01:21:25  <Athorium> someone know the dimensions of roads?
01:21:30  <Athorium> to draw
01:23:34  <Rubidium> you can find it out yourself with grfcodec
01:24:06  <CIA-1> bjarni * r7588 /trunk/ (4 files in 3 dirs):
01:24:06  <CIA-1> -Change: [OSX] removed the flag JAGUAR since it didn't work anyway
01:24:06  <CIA-1>  Also removed all the Makefile code regarding this flag since it's no longer needed
01:24:06  <CIA-1>  Removed documentation about special limitations regarding running the game on OSX 10.2
01:24:06  <CIA-1>  OpenTTD now officially needs OSX 10.3.9 to work correctly (the trunk needed that for months)
01:24:15  <Athorium> grfcodec?
01:24:15  <BFM> FEEL MY WRATH http://burningfeetman.googlepages.com/Anothersongthingynotreallyeasyleftma.mp3
01:24:17  <BFM> I hate being bored :(
01:24:19  <Athorium> i no have this application
01:24:38  <Bjarni> BFM: then start coding
01:24:55  <Bjarni> Athorium already requested a complete rewrite of the signal system
01:24:59  <BFM> Bjarni, full of ideas, but wouldn't know where to start champ :(
01:25:16  <Bjarni> then start to learn ;)
01:25:18  <Rubidium> Athorium: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=103924
01:25:31  <Athorium> wow me?
01:25:35  <Bjarni> the best way to learn coding is learning by doing
01:25:48  <Athorium> no, no, my drawing not very good... see my trains... -_-
01:25:56  <BFM> I know trigonometry and geometry etc, but programming :S Unless you need some Excel Macro's written :S
01:25:57  <Rubidium> the best way to learn the OTTD code is by doing major surgery in it :)
01:26:15  <Athorium> coding, I learning C++ in a private formation school (european) but I need a lot of more time to learn something :P
01:27:23  <Athorium> I tried to solve some conflicts with tortoise, and I only maded... have all script in red ^^¡
01:32:53  <izhirahider> You can't expect to understand openttd code in one sweep :)
01:33:20  <Bjarni> the trick is to aim at a single goal and not be distracted by all the other code
01:33:36  <Bjarni> then figure out what you want to do, code and figure out if you broke anything
01:33:39  <Athorium> yeah, but I no understand anything... :P

02:05:11  <Athorium> ah, allright
02:05:14  <Sacro> :P
02:05:36  <Athorium> Sacro, you know how can I see all "required" sprites to change the road?
02:05:53  <Sacro> err... check the ttdpatch wiki
02:05:57  <Sacro> or ask Born_Acorn

02:10:46  <Athorium> but I need how to make, no one maked in-game
02:10:50  <Athorium> to see dimensions, etc
02:12:51  <Athorium> u know any image that appears all sprites?
02:13:56  <Athorium> yeah
02:13:57  <Athorium> http://graphics.bornacorn.com/UKROADSET/ukroadsetpurnosbridges.png
02:13:59  <Athorium> this I need
02:14:01  <Athorium> but in roads only
02:14:03  <Athorium> not bridges
02:14:56  <Rubidium> Athorium: gtfcodec makes such an image
02:15:10  <Rubidium> *grfcodec
02:15:19  <glx> grfcodec -d file.grf
02:15:43  <glx> then you get SPRITE/file.nfo and SPRITE/file.pcx
02:16:29  <glx> *SPRITES
02:16:42  <Athorium> ok, wait a sec
02:17:33  <Athorium> yeah
02:17:35  <Athorium> I have it
02:17:35  <Athorium> ^^
02:17:41  <Athorium> thx
02:23:32  <Athorium> but.. why appears in different colors than original (my game shows it in grey) pcx have colors in brown :S
02:23:57  <glx> run grfcodec -h to get the help
02:24:23  <glx> and use grfcodec -d -p to use the correct palette
02:25:08  <Athorium> ok
02:27:41  <glx> hmm indeed grfcodec without any param is enough to get help
02:28:00  <Athorium> yeha, now I see nice
02:28:01  <Athorium> ^^
02:28:14  <Athorium> and to compile my creation? (to test)
02:28:28  <glx> you need to write a .nfo
02:28:41  <Athorium> ops
02:29:07  <Athorium> and if I replace my actual set to test it?
02:29:12  <Athorium> and use the actual info?
02:30:15  <glx> http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php?page=TheFirstVehicle

07:19:14  <mattt_> do i have to build an electric vehicle first before i can build electric rail?  because i don't see the rail as an option
07:19:49  <Eddi|zuHause> you need to have an electric vehicle available
07:20:41  <mattt_> one is  available :/
07:21:17  <Eddi|zuHause> which version?
07:21:30  <mattt_> 0.4.8
07:21:50  <Eddi|zuHause> 0.4.8 does not have elrails
07:21:55  <mattt_> oh
07:22:04  <mattt_> so electric engines can run on the regular rail?
07:22:35  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, elrails get introduced in 0.5.0
07:22:44  <mattt_> ok, thanks
07:23:36  <Eddi|zuHause> generally, if you are able to build a vehicle in a depot, it can run on that railtype
07:23:57  <mattt_> oh ok

07:25:13  <jnmbk> hi, what does load vehicles gradually do?
07:25:46  <Eddi|zuHause> it loads goods into wagons step by step, not instantly
07:26:01  <jnmbk> ok
07:26:23  <Eddi|zuHause> on the other hand, it can load each wagon simultaneously, so loading might be faster overall, for long trains
07:27:16  <jnmbk> and that "Show company liveries"
07:27:43  <jnmbk> i can't understand it (so can't translate)
07:28:58  <Eddi|zuHause> liveries are how the vehicles are painted
07:29:19  <Eddi|zuHause> 2cc support includes that you can customize liveries for different vehicle classes
07:29:41  <Eddi|zuHause> like you can paint busses red/green and passenger trains red/blue
07:29:55  <Eddi|zuHause> instead of one single company colour
07:30:12  <jnmbk> I'll try it...
07:30:18  <jnmbk> what is 2cc ?
07:30:26  <Eddi|zuHause> two company colours
07:32:13  <Eddi|zuHause> it requires you to use a set which supports 2cc, like the UKRS set

09:30:53  <Celestar> KUDr_wrk: good job on the rewrite
09:31:05  <KUDr> thanks
09:31:13  <KUDr> i did my best
09:31:45  <KUDr> did you test it on some problematic map?
09:36:42  <peter1138> rewrite?
09:37:20  <Celestar> KUDr_wrk: yes I did
09:37:27  <Celestar> KUDr_wrk: increase of performance about factor of 4
09:37:38  <KUDr> good
09:37:53  <KUDr> !openttd commit 7585
09:37:55  <_42_> Commit by KUDr :: r7585 /trunk/ (station.h station_cmd.c) (2006-12-27 23:11:43 UTC)
09:37:57  <_42_> -Codechange: CheckStationSpreadOut() took too much CPU. Station rectangle is now maintained instead of calculating it each time by walking through whole map. Should help with the performance issue related to AIs trying to build road stops too often. (idea by Celestar)
09:38:16  <peter1138> hmm
09:38:51  <peter1138> wha
09:38:57  <peter1138> why more min/max macros?
09:39:10  <KUDr> we don't have any
09:39:14  <peter1138> ...
09:39:15  <KUDr> only functions
09:39:19  <peter1138> min & max are all over the place
09:39:23  <KUDr> for int type
09:39:33  <KUDr> this is uint16
09:39:48  <KUDr> still not C++ and template functions ;)
09:39:59  <peter1138> int works for uint16, heh
09:40:20  <peter1138> why uint16 anyway?
09:40:21  <KUDr> but is 3x more complex than direct compare
09:40:37  <KUDr> 16->32, cmp, 32->16
09:40:54  <KUDr> sorry but it can be only source of problems
09:41:01  <KUDr> it should stay macros
09:41:07  <KUDr> not C func
09:41:16  <KUDr> C++ templates are also good
09:41:19  <KUDr> but...
09:42:01  <KUDr> uint16 is appropriate for map dimensions
09:42:03  <peter1138> iirc (and i have no citation), x86 is faster with 32 bit ints than 16 bit ints...
09:42:26  <KUDr> but conversion is 3x slower than compare

09:51:49  <hylje> squirrels?
09:52:08  <KUDr> hopefully it can help us to prototype new algorithm
09:52:11  <peter1138> Celestar: it also doesn't look like a very complicated function
09:53:11  <KUDr> hylje: only one squirrel
09:53:19  <KUDr> would be enough
09:54:34  <KUDr> Celestar: would you like to optimize 'IndustryDirectory' sorting too?

09:56:12  <peter1138> hmmn
09:56:21  <peter1138> i need to install... ttdpatch :/
09:56:56  <Celestar> why?
09:57:23  * Celestar is looking at a Live aircraft tracker of Frankfurt Airport. Looks differently from what ottd does :P
09:57:45  <peter1138> to compare values
09:59:40  <Celestar> this intercont airport is very nice \o/
09:59:48  <peter1138> it's buggy
09:59:50  <Celestar> I just don't like the two different directions :P
09:59:53  <Celestar> how so?
10:00:04  <Celestar> I'm staring at it for 10 minutes now without a lockup :P
10:00:14  <peter1138> give it a lot of planes
10:00:21  <peter1138> it won't lock up
10:00:29  <Celestar> but it's not too efficient, right?
10:01:20  <peter1138> but you'll get queues in taxi area, and empty loading areas
10:01:42  <Celestar> I wish there was a "clone 2, 4, 8, 16 times" function :P
10:01:55  <Celestar> peter1138: well, sounds all like Heathrow to me :P
10:02:47  <Celestar> the intercont airport (just like Heathrow) misses something critical
10:03:06  <peter1138> heh
10:03:13  <Celestar> dual taxiways
10:03:36  <peter1138> problem is already loading planes have priority in the taxi area
10:03:51  <peter1138> i think
10:03:52  <Celestar> these empty gates and blocked taxiways look more like Chicago
10:03:59  <peter1138> i dunno exactly
10:04:07  <peter1138> gates. that's it, hhe
10:04:23  <Celestar> often enough, Chicago has stuck planes all over the place even though the (7) runways have capacity
10:04:38  <Celestar> hm
10:04:51  <Celestar> a single run by a Dinger 1000 gives more money than the plane costs :o
10:05:50  <peter1138> heh
10:06:21  <Celestar> gah
10:06:27  <Celestar> I see what you mean
10:06:40  <Celestar> aircraft holding in air because aircraft on arrival runways cannot clear arrival runway
10:07:13  <Celestar> (Chicago has a "penalty box" for that issue)
10:07:56  <peter1138> if you've any idea how to fix it...
10:08:00  <Celestar> do we have an FTA map of that airport somewhere
10:08:02  <Celestar> I have an idea
10:08:06  <peter1138> (should go into 0.5)
10:08:20  <Celestar> yeah
10:08:24  <peter1138> i don't think richk produced any
10:08:26  <Celestar> but I might need a bit more tarmac
10:08:31  <Celestar> where is he anyway??
10:08:37  <peter1138> busy i guess
10:08:43  <Celestar> ok
10:08:49  <Celestar> there's just one thing he has forgotten
10:09:04  <Celestar> Arrival traffic must ALWAYS get precedence
10:10:23  <Celestar> (I've now thrown 128 aircraft at the airport)
10:10:56  <Celestar> (passenger rating is still poor with 4096 waiting :P)
10:11:16  <Celestar> must replace aircraft
10:11:30  <peter1138> yay for clone
10:11:35  <peter1138> i just cloned 200 aircraft :D
10:11:42  <peter1138> now i shall use "start all"
10:11:52  <Celestar> er
10:11:57  <Celestar> how do I replace aircraft?
10:12:10  <peter1138> use the "manage list" menu thing
10:12:13  <Celestar> but you had to click 200 times as well?
10:12:17  <peter1138> yeah
10:12:27  <peter1138> but easier than buying each and assign orders
10:12:36  <Celestar> cool
10:12:55  <Celestar> well ok
10:13:05  <Celestar> you see those two little buildings next to the hangars?
10:13:18  <peter1138> yeah
10:13:38  <Celestar> maybe we should remove them
10:13:44  <Celestar> then we could have dual taxiways in the gate area
10:13:48  <peter1138> they look a little silly
10:13:58  <Celestar> one taxiway for incoming aircraft, one for outgoing aircraft
10:14:27  <Biff> peter1138: cant you use autoreplace?
10:14:50  <peter1138> huh?
10:14:52  <Celestar> damnit
10:15:01  <Celestar> I have 36 aircraf stuck in a single hangar :o
10:15:18  <peter1138> i've got a couple of hundred ;p
10:15:21  <peter1138> nearly
10:16:32  <Celestar> damnit
10:16:39  <Celestar> where the hell is the additional viewport?!
10:17:15  <Celestar> we need to put it to some better place
10:17:21  <peter1138> map -> extra viewport
10:17:23  <peter1138> (obviously)
10:17:41  <Biff> peter1138: instead of cloning 200 aircraft :p
10:17:48  <peter1138> ...
10:17:52  <peter1138> autoreplace replaces aircraft
10:17:56  <peter1138> it doesn't create them
10:18:48  <Biff> oh
10:18:52  <Biff> you needed extra
10:18:57  <Celestar> hehe
10:19:11  <Celestar> one viewport per monitor :)
10:19:14  <peter1138> nice
10:19:37  <Celestar> .oO(I was actually profiling)
10:19:37  <peter1138> would be cool if viewports could be in separate windows

10:22:10  <peter1138> hmm
10:22:16  <peter1138> with loads of planes circling
10:22:24  <peter1138> it is really obvious they're not circling
10:22:27  <peter1138> they're squaring
10:22:33  <Celestar> well
10:22:43  <Celestar> planes don't circle the airport anyway normally
10:22:51  <Celestar> the circle miles away from the airport
10:22:54  <peter1138> yeah
10:22:59  <Celestar> on an oval
10:23:07  <peter1138> but they don't take 90 degree turns
10:23:15  <Celestar> one minute straigh, one minute turn (180°), one minute straight, one minute turn (180°)
10:23:21  <Celestar> so one holding pattern is four minutes
10:23:25  <Biff> its minus 5 deg or something here (celsius)
10:23:33  <Celestar> -7 here (outside)
10:23:52  <peter1138> it's above 0 here

10:31:55  <Celestar> hey I see the sun
10:32:40  <Eddi|zuHause> hm... how can i use dd to write into a file at a position, without cutting off everything afterwards...
10:33:15  <Eddi|zuHause> this is fucking rediculous, no program actually does what i want...
10:33:50  <Celestar> vi? :P
10:34:37  <Eddi|zuHause> i did not manage telling vi to not actually load the (1+GB) file
10:34:48  <Eddi|zuHause> [into memory]
10:36:36  <Celestar> maybe hexdump?
10:39:17  <Eddi|zuHause> hexdump does not sound like a program that can write into files
10:40:01  <Celestar> hexdump > file :P
10:40:05  <Eddi|zuHause> i want to replace a few 4kB blocks in the middle of a file
10:40:36  <Eddi|zuHause> with neither the beginning nor the end of the file
10:40:53  <Noldo> dd is your friend :)
10:41:09  <peter1138> ahh... back in the day, i'd do that by disk editing
10:41:14  <Celestar> use dd on the input to stream to standard out
10:41:26  <peter1138> admittedly it was a bit easier with those ancient file systems
10:41:59  <Celestar> dd if=infile of=temp bs=4k count=42; cat newstuff >> temp; dd if=infile bs=4k start=somehwere >> temp
10:42:06  <Celestar> something like that
10:42:12  <Eddi|zuHause> i repeat: i do not want to _touch_ the rest of the file, that includes _not_ reading and writing back
10:42:27  <Celestar> y?
10:42:38  <Eddi|zuHause> because 1GB >> 4kB
10:43:20  <Celestar> well, and why can you not use dd?
10:43:26  <Celestar> because it truncates the file?
10:43:29  <Eddi|zuHause> yes
10:43:38  <Celestar> then you need to write directly onto the partition :)
10:43:55  <Noldo> make your own c program
10:44:10  <Celestar> or that :)

11:11:02  <Athorium> or nothing?
11:11:05  <peter1138> i do hope their patch has stopped storing sprite ids in the map
11:11:46  <peter1138> roads are either plain, or with pavements, trees or streetlamps

11:12:28  <Rubidium> Darkvater/peter1138: what do you think of http://rubidium.student.utwente.nl/openttd/fs476.diff ? The issue it solves is the fact that when you click various buttons when shift is held down the cost estimation comes up and nothing changes. Examples are face customization 'Ok' button, the 'Ok' buttons for almost all rename windows, the pause button and many others.
11:12:33  <peter1138> it mentions one property and nothing else yet
11:12:47  <Athorium> yes but for example, I can draw a kilometrical post
11:12:51  <Athorium> in interurban roads...
11:13:08  <peter1138> draw one then
11:13:21  <Darkvater> ah. I've read in initial spec of storing grfid on map...bad idea
11:13:34  <peter1138> for newobjects?
11:13:50  <peter1138> more likely a reference in a lookup table

11:14:38  <KUDr> Darkvater: if you want i can add minu16/maxu16 inline functions, but using 32 bit functions for comparing 16 bit values is not the way
11:14:40  <peter1138> hmm, 'cept some stuff does cost nothing
11:14:46  <Darkvater> not for estimation sometimes and not estimation othet times
11:15:21  <Rubidium> Darkvater: I only removed the cost estimastion for things where there never is a cost
11:15:32  <Darkvater> KUDr: then change the values to 32bit. Those 8 extra bytes really won't kill
11:16:01  <Rubidium> like pausing the game or changing the name of the company
11:16:08  <KUDr> but remember that VC doesn't inline functions so it will be slower in debug builds :)
11:16:21  <Rubidium> or reversing trains
11:16:26  <Darkvater> lol @kudr
11:16:44  <Darkvater> gcc doesn't inline either
11:16:56  <peter1138> macros are there to be avoided
11:17:06  <peter1138> just like casts
11:17:53  <peter1138> (ignoring my horrible huge macro which contains casts...)
11:18:46  <MeusH> Rubidium, I like it, and it seems to be faster than peter1138's idea as the function won't be even executed
11:19:07  <Darkvater> MeusH: ?
11:19:08  <KUDr> then it is time to switch to C++ and avoid BEGIN_TILE_LOOP, END_TILE_LOOP, FOR_ALL_STATIONS, etc. :)
11:19:41  <MeusH> well, I think Rubidium's patch is better than adding  if (cost != 0)
11:19:58  <MeusH> I'm not sure but it's just my opinion
11:20:05  <Darkvater> MeusH: the function is executed just the same...
11:20:21  <MeusH> oh
11:20:28  <MeusH> I should have read the diff first :|
11:20:57  <MeusH> noone said a good word about patch so I thought Rubidium may get a bit sad
11:21:01  <Darkvater> Rubidium: what is wrong with CMD_RENAME_TOWN?

11:22:08  <Darkvater> This could get confusing when SHIFT sometimes gives estimation and other times doesn't
11:22:51  <Darkvater> yet, some commands are pretty hardcore (like mass_stop) that making the SHIFT_ mistake has serious consequences

11:24:57  <peter1138> i think if shift is pressed, it shouldn't execute the command. i dunno if that's what it does

11:25:25  <peter1138> we don't use the sf.net project bollocks

11:27:31  <peter1138> hmm

11:31:20  <Darkvater> in this way a user knows the cost of an action

11:43:48  <MeusH> Wolf01, I think because OpenTTD has no limits, thus it's easier to make a feature
11:44:02  <MeusH> while TTDPatch's limits bust be tweaked or went around first to code a new feature
11:44:30  <Wolf01> they pay us to make a limited version of ottd to keep some players?

13:36:07  <izhirahider> I have a question regarding town generation: Say that towns are generated by a prefix in an array A and a suffix in an array B. Using seedChance() to fetch A[x] and B[y], isn't there a remote possibility that one can have duplicate town names? it just needs that the same pair (x,y) is generated twice. It can happen with random numbers. Or am I missing something?
13:36:43  <Celestar> maybe the program stores generated town names?
13:38:18  <peter1138> izhirahider: it compares against existing town names
13:39:00  <Rubidium> hmm, what are we going to do with docs/console.txt? It is really hopelessly outdated (and even beyond that)

13:47:33  <Darkvater> oh reminds me...
13:47:52  <RichK67> ive got a quickie question about the behaviour of the "manage list" function - i dont know if its faulty, or just not doing what I expect
13:47:57  <Darkvater> peter1138: we needa add a flag to force loading savegame without appropiate newgrfs
13:48:16  <Darkvater> or even better, load it with newgrfs, just disabled so you can remove the missing ones from the savegame
13:48:20  <Darkvater> well or something
13:48:29  <Darkvater> yoda I very much so
13:48:32  <Maedhros> hi everyone
13:49:08  <Rubidium> Celestar: why do you make the distinction between rail & road bridges, but not between rail & road tunnels?
13:49:18  <RichK67> if i select a station serving a wood sawmill, and view its list of trains, i can then select replace vehicles from the Manage List drop down. however, any replacement i do is then global across my entire network, rather than limited to the list at that station... is this the way its meant to be?
13:49:20  <Darkvater> Celestar: 476 return owner; you forgot the check for rail type
13:49:25  <Darkvater> -			if ((IsTunnel(tile) && GetTunnelTransportType(tile) == TRANSPORT_RAIL) ||
13:49:25  <Darkvater> -					(IsBridge(tile) && GetBridgeTransportType(tile) == TRANSPORT_RAIL)) {
13:49:26  <Darkvater> -				return IsTileOwner(tile, owner);
13:49:29  <Darkvater> +		case MP_RAILWAY_BRIDGE:
13:49:30  <Darkvater> +			return IsTileOwner(tile, owner);
13:49:41  <Darkvater> should be getbridgetransporttype==rail no?
13:49:47  <hylje> RichK67: yes :|
13:49:51  <peter1138> RichK67: yeah, replace vehicles is global
13:50:05  <Celestar> Rubidium: because I don't care about tunnels for the time being :P
13:50:07  <Celestar> Celestar: checking
13:50:12  <RichK67> no way to limit the replace to just the selected list??
13:50:41  <Darkvater> no
13:50:43  <Celestar> Darkvater: a railways bridge normally has a railway on it :)
13:50:46  <RichK67> dang :(
13:50:56  <peter1138> could be possible
13:51:01  <Biff> RichK67: workaround suggestion; edit their orders (if they are shared) to go and stop at the same depot
13:51:03  <Darkvater> Celestar: so why the check for tunnel?
13:51:08  <peter1138> but it's not currently, and won't be in 0.5.0, heh
13:51:09  <Biff> then i think you can replace them there

15:21:51  <KUDr> and then the engine itself should work (except for some BE/LE issues that we can solve i think)
15:21:55  <peter1138> i shouldn't think there's any need for OS calls
15:22:03  <Celestar> well, give it a shot and see how it turns out
15:22:28  <Celestar> so I'm creating a custombridgeheads branch now or not? :P
15:22:33  <peter1138> yes
15:22:37  <peter1138> get everyone excited :D
15:22:42  <KUDr> peter1138: i am aware of some (executing script file, etc.)
15:22:43  <tokai> KUDr: what scripting engine your talking 'bout?
15:22:53  <KUDr> but they can be rerouted easily
15:23:07  <KUDr> tokai: squirrel
15:23:10  <tokai> Sutherland: there is an old unofficial openttd port for O54, but they never got it working right it seems.
15:23:18  <tokai> KUDr: hmm.. never heard of that one:)
15:23:29  <Celestar> peter1138: call it custombridgeheads or cbh? :P
15:23:51  <peter1138> no idea
15:23:58  <KUDr> tokai: much better then LUA (its probably LUA fork with different language)
15:24:02  <Celestar> Darkvater: suggestions? :P
15:24:19  <tokai> KUDr: ah.. well.. lua works on ppc.. i even made a quick port to morphos once
15:24:27  <tokai> if its a fork it shouldnt be a problem i guess
15:24:37  <Rubidium> tokai: please try to compile it :)
15:24:37  <Sutherland> okay tokai but i was just askin where to get amigaos4
15:24:49  <tokai> Sutherland: you can't get it
15:24:53  <KUDr> tokai: then it should work too - engine itself is very similar
15:25:05  <Rubidium> tokai: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=85893
15:25:11  <tokai> Sutherland: u only can get it when you're registered user of a certain hardware which is no longer available
15:25:20  <Celestar> we could make scripting optional :)
15:25:37  <Celestar> because the first application, newsignalling, is more like rapid prototyping
15:26:02  <Sutherland> tokai okay :(
15:27:03  <tokai> Sutherland: imho you're better off with winuae on a fast windows pc anyway ;)
15:27:06  <KUDr> Celestar: first i will make it controllable from console, then some autopilot scripts to test it and then AI interface
15:27:20  <Celestar> I'm eager to seeing the results
15:27:44  <KUDr> Celestar: but it will stay in branch so we can get experience with it and discuss its usage later
15:28:11  <KUDr> Celestar: results of what?
15:28:41  <Celestar> of your implementation :)
15:28:45  <KUDr> i can give you my old LUA experimental build
15:29:12  <Sutherland> :S thank u very much tokai
15:29:21  <KUDr> you can play with it (it had also background tasks implemented)
15:29:58  <Celestar> KUDr: I'll work on custombridgeheads for the time being :P
15:30:23  <KUDr> Celestar: and it is sure that squirrel works with ottd, but now i am trying to simplify the ottd API bindings so i can declare new bind on one line
15:30:39  <KUDr> Celestar:ok
15:31:01  <peter1138> i'll work on... whatever's left i have to do
15:31:23  <Celestar> peter1138: you can help me \o/
15:31:28  <tokai> ld: archive: ../lib/libsqstdlib.a has no table of contents, add one with ranlib(1) (can't load from it)  <- heh.. :)  but i guess it could build (i'm on OSX/PPC atm)
15:32:16  <Noldo> KUDr: btw, how's yapf?
15:32:46  <Sacro> tokai: winuae wont run os4, though pearpc might
15:32:49  <Celestar> yapf is working well.
15:32:50  <Celestar> :)
15:32:54  <KUDr> Noldo: please specify your question
15:33:39  <Noldo> KUDr: I like Celestar's answer :) but do you have any imidiate plans for it?
15:34:22  <tokai> Sacro: i didn't said that. I meant your better off with using winuae (and an older version of amigaos) than trying to get some obscure hardware just to run OS4 which can't run less software than a real amiga (i mean the ones from CBM era).
15:34:35  <Noldo> just noticed the testers needed thread on the forums
15:34:39  <tokai> -'t
15:34:42  <KUDr> Noldo: not for now - during newsig work there will be need to make some changes there
15:34:52  <Sacro> tokai: true, i like running Workbench 1.3 under winuae
15:35:11  <KUDr> Noldo: testers are still needed
15:35:18  <tokai> k, suirreel build under osx... so.. how to use it? :)
15:35:29  <KUDr> And dedicated YAPF thread too
15:35:53  <peter1138> guys
15:35:55  <tokai> has a odd makefile concept though (always deletes object files) :)
15:36:02  <peter1138> hmm
15:36:05  <KUDr> tokai: run sq with some argument (script file name)
15:36:08  * peter1138 ponders the spritecache pool
15:36:21  <peter1138> think it'll suck performance?
15:36:46  <tokai> carbuncle:~/Desktop/SQUIRREL2 tokai$ ./bin/sq samples/hello.nut
15:36:46  <tokai> Hello World!carbuncle:~/Desktop/SQUIRREL2 tokai$
15:36:49  <KUDr> tokai: simplest file could contain one line 'print("hello");'
15:36:58  <tokai> seems it is working on ppc
15:37:04  <Noldo> KUDr: have you documented the features and uses of signals that are supported?
15:37:04  <KUDr> well
15:37:10  <KUDr> thanks for good news
15:37:33  <KUDr> Noldo: what features you mean?
15:38:22  <KUDr> like load balancing?
15:38:49  <KUDr> it is all explained on forums
15:38:59  <Noldo> I remember we once talked about some effects of red-two-way as deadend and whether they are features or unplanned side efects
15:39:10  <Rubidium> tokai: it does never make .o files
15:39:26  <KUDr> Noldo: it has switch in config
15:39:53  <KUDr> so i would tell that it is not 'unplanned side effect'
15:40:28  <KUDr> look into your .cfg and you will see all - the names are self descriptive
15:40:32  <peter1138> well the main feature we want is that pbs-a-like thing ;)
15:40:55  * Sacro would like reversing signals
15:40:57  <peter1138> priorities can currently be 'emulated', heh
15:40:59  <KUDr> peter1138: yes, this is by design
15:40:59  <Gonozal_VIII> higher trainflow without stopping :-)
15:41:12  <Gonozal_VIII> stopping is baaaaad
15:41:44  <Gonozal_VIII> trains should never have to stop outside a station or depot
15:42:34  <peter1138> well at least the 1 second delay's gone now
15:46:55  <Celestar> hm
15:47:05  <Celestar> carbuncle ... that sounds like Final Fantasy

16:05:10  <Celestar> what about compiling a list of what has been in MiniIN and see what we can port to trunk/ ?
16:05:12  <Rubidium> peter1138: pong!
16:05:42  <peter1138> what happened to clearing the grfconfig list within resetgrfconfig?
16:05:50  <Rubidium> Celestar: porting the patches to trunk will be a hell
16:06:01  <Celestar> Rubidium: well, not all :)
16:06:01  <Rubidium> huh?
16:06:02  <Athorium> hi
16:06:13  <Celestar> Rubidium: but some that are 1) stable 2) worth the effort :)
16:06:41  <Sacro> Celestar: that'd be amazing
16:06:47  <Celestar> Sacro: I need a list ...
16:06:52  <Sacro> Celestar: its on svn
16:07:04  * Sacro digs
16:07:14  <hylje> at least diagonal crossings
16:07:25  <Celestar> ah
16:07:40  * Sacro does an svn co
16:07:49  <peter1138> ah
16:07:52  <peter1138> Rubidium: sorry
16:07:55  <peter1138> Darkvater: ping? :P
16:08:18  <Sacro> i'd like to see diagonal crossings moved
16:08:22  <Sacro> and realistic physics
16:08:31  <Celestar> Sacro: what do they do?
16:09:00  <blathijs> "moved" ?
16:09:01  <Sacro> diagonal crossings? allows you to have lines crossing like + rather than like x
16:09:02  <Rubidium> most patches in MiniIN are influenced by subsidiaries & PBS
16:09:21  <Rubidium> the diagonal crossings is one of them
16:09:33  <Celestar> please elaborate on that feature?
16:09:37  <hylje> diagonal crossing allows building diagonal rail on roads
16:09:43  <Celestar> ah
16:09:46  <Celestar> thanks
16:09:50  <Sacro> Celestar: svn://svn.openttd.org/branches/MiniIN/patches/MiniINpatches.txt
16:09:54  <Celestar> thanks
16:09:56  <Maedhros> diagonal crossings was written against trunk, and ported to miniin afterwards
16:10:22  <Celestar> is there any patch left?
16:10:22  <Athorium> what is TBH?
16:10:25  <Celestar> some diff ?
16:10:26  <Sacro> ooh, signal autocomplete
16:10:34  <Maedhros> i can probably update it a bit now there's more space in the map array :)
16:10:36  <hylje> signal autocomplete is bugggyyyy
16:10:56  <Sacro> Celestar: all the patches should be on the forums
16:11:13  <Rubidium> Maedhros: yes, but the miniin patch is 'newer' than the trunk patch, as there is a MiniIN patch done on diagonal crossings months after the last update of the trunk diff at the forum
16:11:25  <CIA-1> celestar * r7593 /branches/custombridgeheads/: [cbh] - Created a branch to develop custombridgeheads.
16:11:25  <CIA-1> peter1138 * r7594 /trunk/newgrf_config.c: -Fix (r7522): GRF config list wasn't cleared when no GRFs should be used.
16:11:34  <Sacro> ooh, upgrade bridges in situ
16:11:55  <Maedhros> Rubidium: ah. well, i've got the patch against trunk somewhere, but probably not on this computer...
16:12:04  <Celestar> what is upgrade bridge in situ?
16:12:13  <Athorium> someone can say me what is TBH?
16:12:17  <Rubidium> upgrade the bridge without destroying it
16:12:22  <Maedhros> Athorium: to be honest
16:12:23  <peter1138> to be honest
16:12:28  <Athorium> ok, thx
16:12:41  <Celestar> Rubidium: ok that is a feature that should port easily to trunk, right?
16:12:48  * Rubidium wanted to say "to be honest, I don't know"
16:13:05  <Rubidium> if Maedhros can update his patch, it is fairly easy
16:13:16  <glx> Rubidium: the patch in MiniIN if I remember was for PBS
16:13:28  <Celestar> Maedhros: do you have any diff about those diagonal-level-crossing?S
16:13:39  <Rubidium> I looked at it this afternoon and it was a general cleanup-diagonal-level-crossings patch
16:13:55  <Athorium> -Feature: Add support for tractive effort to 'realistic' acceleration.
16:13:57  <Athorium> what is this?
16:14:05  <Maedhros> Celestar: here's the latest forum patch: http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?t=26584
16:14:14  <Maedhros> i'll have to dig up the newer one
16:14:24  <Celestar> Maedhros: ok I'll have a look through it, k?
16:14:25  <hylje> Athorium: newgrf sets such as ukrs provide a tractive effort value for trains
16:14:30  <Sacro> Athorium: torque
16:14:41  <Maedhros> Celestar: fine :)
16:14:43  <Athorium> better acceleration?
16:14:52  <Athorium> well, "more realistic"?
16:14:59  <hylje> yeah
16:15:02  <Sacro> yes, more realistic
16:15:10  <Athorium> ok, cool ^_^
16:15:14  <hylje> high HP pax trains arent useful when pulling heavy cargo
16:15:25  <Sacro> hylje: high HP are
16:15:34  <hylje> with little torque i doubt
16:15:40  <Sacro> yeah... true
16:16:12  <Celestar> wow this is a hugeass patch
16:16:14  <Rubidium> Celestar: r6401 is the cleanup patch I was talking about
16:16:36  <Celestar> ok
16:16:50  <Maedhros> the latest version i've got is for r6445
16:17:03  <peter1138> Sacro: did you know the formulas are the same?
16:17:05  <Celestar> Maedhros: before we can do anything about the level crossing, we should do some cleanup for the level crossings.
16:17:06  <peter1138> just different units
16:17:11  <Sacro> peter1138: oh?
16:17:12  <peter1138> (oh, and the airdrag, heh)
16:17:37  * Sacro sits back and watches Japanese Bikini Rodeo Pie Fighting
16:18:17  <orudge> Hm, lovely, there's a server at www.openttd.org/servers.php that messes up the page layout
16:18:20  <orudge> for me on Safari anyway
16:18:40  <Sacro> hmm, firefox slips long names under the next coloum
16:19:09  <hylje> orudge: opera is fine
16:19:22  <Celestar> KUDr: do you store the Station Rectangles in the savegame?
16:19:45  <glx> the comment says no
16:19:51  <Sacro> :o
16:19:59  <Celestar> ok
16:20:47  <Celestar> Maedhros: we should swap the road and rail owner of level crossings and move the Railtype to the same place MP_RAILWAY has it
16:21:22  <Maedhros> Celestar: sounds sensible
16:21:35  <Maedhros> newer patch is here, btw: http://dev.gentoo.org/~maedhros/openttd/diagonal-crossings-r6445.diff
16:22:16  <Celestar> can anyone get me screenshots of the diagonal crossings?
16:22:39  <Rubidium> Celestar: it is in the forum thread
16:22:49  <Rubidium> just go to page 3 or 4
16:22:49  <Maedhros> http://www.tt-forums.net/files/greabourne_transport_27th_jun_1984_200.png
16:22:53  <Celestar> Rubidium: ok
16:23:16  <Celestar> cool
16:23:20  <Maedhros> there are fences in the newer patch which i don't really like any more, so i'll probably remove them again soon
16:23:27  <Celestar> Maedhros: no worries :P
16:23:55  <Celestar> hm.
16:24:00  <Celestar> idea:
16:25:10  <Celestar> for MP_STREET, we have the road bits in m6, 2-5, for MP_RAILWAY we have them in m5 0-5. so we can have a joint type MP_WHATEVER which 1) has both and 2) can then be simple used to implement trams.
16:25:16  <Celestar> comments?

16:26:07  <hylje> but implement diagonal crossings too
16:26:14  <Sacro> Celestar: that sounds good
16:26:15  <Celestar> well it is the same.
16:27:31  <Rubidium> trams need to be implemented differently than rails
16:27:35  <hylje> how feasible are broader roads?
16:27:38  <Celestar> Rubidium: why?
16:27:40  <Celestar> KUDr: ping
16:28:10  <Rubidium> because you can have tram and road on the same tile with different 'roadmasks'
16:28:30  <Celestar> well, with the implementation I suggested up there, you could have that.
16:29:05  <Celestar> you can have every possible combination
16:29:24  <Rubidium> what about a rail+tram+road crossing?
16:29:36  <peter1138> do we want ttdp style trams? heh
16:29:39  <Celestar> Rubidium: let's not get too carried away
16:29:39  <blathijs> Tram?
16:29:46  <Celestar> peter1138: what are ttdp-style trams?
16:29:48  <Celestar> :P
16:30:04  <peter1138> Celestar: road vehicles restricted to a specific road type, heh
16:30:04  <Celestar> 13:03 <Darkvater> gotta go, bb in 30
16:30:13  <Rubidium> Celestar: basically another roadtype

16:30:53  <peter1138> road or trams?
16:30:57  <Celestar> road
16:30:59  <peter1138> hmm
16:31:15  <hylje> then transparency and blending to make arbitary crossings
16:31:17  <blathijs> Celestar: I think that had issues as well :-)
16:31:22  <Celestar> it has
16:31:28  <Celestar> but is there anything wrong with my idea up there?
16:31:33  <Rubidium> Celestar: hmm, that might be possible :)
16:31:44  <blathijs> Celestar: In basis, it would be a useful generalization
16:32:10  <blathijs> Celestar: Please make it into in a proposal :-)
16:32:13  <Celestar> blathijs: what is the difference between the two? basically nothing, except that you can go from an X track to Y track.
16:32:30  <blathijs> You can have half x and y tracks
16:32:34  <blathijs> which is sorta nasty
16:32:42  <Rubidium> though if you have a -| junction, it would becomes more like a <| rail junction

16:34:09  <blathijs> I tink I concluded it to be feasible when I considered it for newmap back then

16:34:20  * Celestar drops it for the time being
16:34:21  <blathijs> kills?
16:34:26  <blathijs> It just unifies
16:34:49  <Rubidium> Celestar: there will be two free bytes for roads when newhouses hits trunk
16:34:59  <hylje> it needs a different implementation of crossings
16:34:59  <Celestar> Rubidium: 1.5

16:35:29  <Rubidium> hmm
16:35:41  <Celestar> it happens when you raise the savegame revision
16:36:07  <blathijs> Celestar: You will be able to support maglev/rails crossings as well if unification of rail/road works
16:36:16  <blathijs> Celestar: In the code, anyway
16:36:35  <Celestar> blathijs: but you'll need 16 trackbits in the code
16:36:38  <blathijs> Celestar: Though I'm afraid that'd require more bits
16:36:43  <Celestar> instead of 8
16:36:49  <Celestar> which is ok by me ... but ... :P
16:36:49  <blathijs> probably
16:36:55  <blathijs> but, really gotta go now

17:04:53  <peter1138> station spread has been reduced mid game?
17:04:56  <Celestar> KUDr: it shouldn't crash :P
17:04:59  <peter1138> or some other bug
17:05:00  <Celestar> peter1138: possibly
17:05:05  <Celestar> likely
17:05:06  <peter1138> i think it should ignore station spread on load :)
17:05:15  <peter1138> or...
17:05:16  <peter1138> hmm
17:05:32  <KUDr> Celestar: it doesn crash. It shows assert only because something is wrong :)
17:05:50  <Celestar> I just named the game crash.sav :P
17:05:51  <peter1138> unfortunately that case can happen quite easily
17:06:10  * peter1138 ponders the dbsetxl issue some more
17:06:10  <KUDr> peter1138: yes, it should, but do we have some global var that i can check?
17:06:22  <peter1138> global?
17:06:25  <peter1138> why?
17:06:34  <KUDr> to see that we are in load
17:06:44  <KUDr> and then ignore the rule
17:06:50  <peter1138> you can just use a parameter that is set in the AfterLoadStations() function
17:07:00  <KUDr> huh
17:07:10  <KUDr> it is too much overhead
17:07:26  <KUDr> there must be some var about the game state
17:12:23  <Noldo> It must be quite a long time since I played openttd last time
17:14:12  <Celestar> why?
17:15:28  <Sacro> hmm, del doesnt work when you have the console open
17:16:12  <Noldo> I really don't know what I have been doing the last six months
17:16:36  <Noldo> I haven't studied or played openttd
17:17:18  <MeusH> Sacro: because it's used to delete chars from console? :)
17:17:29  <glx> Sacro: and it's logical :)
17:17:29  <MeusH> or you mean "the other del"?
17:17:30  <Sacro> MeusH: yes
17:17:52  <Sacro> MeusH: i mean del, as opposed to backspace
17:18:36  <MeusH> yeah I know, but it was also possible that the del that erases chars is not working. hopefully the not working one is the del that closes window
17:18:40  <MeusH> nevermind
17:18:49  <stillunknown> has ride through maintenance ever been considered?
17:18:54  <Sacro> stillunknown: eys
17:18:56  <Sacro> i want it
17:19:32  <MeusH> do you know some IRC channel aimed at midlet developement? Like java applications for mobile phones?
17:20:56  <stillunknown> anyone know if it's possible to hack a maintenance flag into a waypoint, or if that's likely not to work?

17:21:48  <MeusH> Bjarni had an idea of multi-tile depots to convert between many track types
17:22:00  <MeusH> these would be similiar to stations

17:22:24  <MeusH> then you could build terminal or ro-ro depots
17:23:22  <MeusH> Celestar, I don't understand why there is just one MP_TUNNEL, but BRIDGEs are separated to railway and road?
17:23:37  <Noldo> how's the ship pathfinding?

17:25:15  <stillunknown> anyone who has an idea what would happen if a waypoint would be flagged as depot, does that carry any implicit consequences?
17:25:58  <Athorium> hi
17:26:04  <stillunknown> like hardcoded properties or beheaviour?
17:26:10  <MeusH> stillunknown, it would be easier to mark train as serviced by visiting certain waypoints
17:26:26  <MeusH> but making waypoint a depot doesn't seem to be a good idea

17:35:08  <Gonozal_VIII> yes, that would be cool
17:35:09  <Wolf01> make open depots where you see the train being built instead... like stations
17:35:20  <Celestar> help coding :S
17:36:23  <Celestar> ok what the correct order to do things? svn cp tunnelbridge_cmd.c bridge_cmd.c; svn mv tunnelbridge_cmd.c tunnel_cmd.c or first move then copy, or two seperate commits?
17:36:40  <Gonozal_VIII> maybe those depots longer with max train length inside = depot length
17:37:29  <Gonozal_VIII> more realistic withoud depot pocket dimension things..
17:37:31  <glx> Celestar: svn mv is enough
17:37:33  <Gonozal_VIII> -d+t
17:37:34  <Darkvater> Celestar: svn rename?
17:37:43  <Celestar> glx: Darkvater I need to split the file
17:37:59  <Celestar> tunnelbridge_cmd.c => tunnel_cmd.c + bridge_cmd.c
17:38:11  <Darkvater> split file, delete original and commit
17:38:19  <Celestar> so cp, cp, del ?
17:38:33  <Darkvater> well cp, mv, del
17:38:42  <Celestar> if you mv you don't need to del :P
17:38:44  <Wolf01> i like more to be able to build a train limited in width, so i can build a depot long 5 tiles and a station of 5 tiles, and i'm sure that a train built in that depot fit into the station
17:38:44  <Darkvater> eh I mean
17:38:47  <Darkvater> cp, rename
17:38:48  <Darkvater> :P
17:38:56  <Celestar> rename and move is the same thing :P

17:39:57  <Celestar> so I copy copy del :)
17:39:58  <Celestar> thanks
17:40:03  <Celestar> cu tomorrow, going home
17:40:06  <glx> move (mv, rename, ren) <-- it's the same
17:40:12  <stillunknown> the reason a train stops at a station, is that because of a station property or because of a train property?
17:40:12  <Darkvater> cp, mv
17:40:33  <Celestar> stillunknown: a train doesn't stop at every station, right?
17:40:47  <Celestar> stillunknown: the TrainController decides whether or not to stop
17:40:53  <Celestar> doesn't it?
17:40:55  <glx> Celestar: depends of non-stop handling patch
17:41:02  <Celestar> stupid non-stop :S
17:41:15  <Celestar> non-stop means non-stop ... that is means no stop in between

17:52:46  <peter1138> yes
17:52:58  <peter1138> one solution is to use a substitute sprite
17:53:13  <Darkvater> why does it happen?
17:53:24  <peter1138> http://fuzzle.org/o/dbsetxl.png
17:53:32  <peter1138> top one is the problem
17:53:36  <glx> Wolf01: you removed a newline in settings.c :)
17:53:37  <peter1138> bottom one just looks odd
17:53:41  <Wolf01> mmm i think i made a little error when i synced the patch
17:53:52  <Wolf01> but is not that the problem
17:54:15  <Gonozal_VIII> that's not a bug, the train is not complete
17:54:31  <peter1138> Gonozal_VIII: yes
17:54:46  <Wolf01> it gave the same error also before the sync
17:54:55  <peter1138> Gonozal_VIII: the bug is that dbsetxl doesn't define sprites for the other angles
17:55:02  <peter1138> becuase you're not supposed to use it like that
17:55:06  <peter1138> but it doesn't *stop* you using it like that
17:55:10  <Darkvater> hmm it's trailing questionmarks ;p
17:55:17  <Gonozal_VIII> ah
17:55:23  <peter1138> Darkvater: that's the substitute sprite :)
17:55:34  <peter1138> without the substitute, it crashes with an error
17:55:43  <peter1138> (invalid sprite)
17:55:47  <peter1138> which is correct
17:55:49  <Darkvater> hmm wait
17:55:50  <peter1138> but annoying
17:55:56  <Darkvater> you're not even supposed to be start that engine
17:56:00  <Darkvater> cause it needs more wagons
17:56:08  <peter1138> no, you're not supposed to, but dbsetxl doesn't enforce it
17:56:18  <hylje> :D
17:56:21  <peter1138> and in this case, it was an autoreplace from another engine type
17:56:29  <peter1138> still, i hate dbsetxl anyway ;p
17:56:34  <Darkvater> I thought it did through callbacks
17:56:44  <peter1138> it doesn't use it
17:56:49  <peter1138> well, it does, but not always
17:57:04  <Gonozal_VIII> ok with autoreplace this could be a problem
17:57:30  <Darkvater> autoreplace will screw it up most probably though no matter what dbsetxl says
17:57:41  <peter1138> not really
17:57:51  <peter1138> if it used the callback, the train would be stuck in a depot instead
17:57:55  <peter1138> not ideal, but it wouldn't crash

18:16:25  <Darkvater> they are not reset

18:17:51  <peter1138> truth hurts, huh?
18:18:14  <Biff> "every other tile"-signaling?
18:18:18  <Sacro> indeed it does
18:18:20  <Darkvater> well he was low on money
18:18:21  <Darkvater> ;)
18:18:33  <peter1138> Biff: yes... i.e. a signal every other tile
18:18:42  <peter1138> could be worse, of course
18:18:54  <peter1138> a signal every tile :/
18:19:03  <Biff> so every other tile always had a signal?
18:19:24  <Biff> in tunnels/bridges?
18:19:47  <peter1138> well except them, obviously
18:19:56  <Biff> oh
18:20:04  <Biff> i thought it was something like my idea :p
18:20:21  <Biff> just assume all brigdes and tunnels have signals
18:20:21  <Biff> :P
18:20:30  <peter1138> really
18:20:34  <peter1138> that works well
18:20:39  <peter1138> where do you store the signal state?
18:21:06  <Biff> i dunno, it was just a idea i got, i'm not very familiar with the code yet

18:21:29  <Biff> so i dont even know if its possible
18:21:39  <Darkvater> fckin....
18:21:46  <Gonozal_VIII> signal default red could be useful
18:22:08  <Darkvater> ok what shall I do? Variadic macros don't work on VS2003 and I can't think of any way to make it work

18:24:05  <Wolf01> if i close the game, look in the openttd.cfg they are, if i start the game and look in the openttd.cfg they aren't anymore
18:24:22  <Darkvater> I tried the workaround posted for this somewhere on the net but that didn't work
18:24:22  <glx> Wolf01: indeed they are not reset if you run the game with -g
18:24:42  <glx> they are reset for intro game
18:24:43  <hylje> that signal bug is quite obscure
18:24:44  <Darkvater> Wolf01: well I don't know what you are doing, but those changes persist between restarts, at least in openttd without modifications
18:25:29  <glx> Darkvater: not the transparent buildings one (it's removed for intro game)
18:25:34  <Wolf01> ok, if it works so, this bug seem to be solved (i also missed the DO_TRANS_SIGN)

18:38:58  <Darkvater> Rubidium: why? OpenTTD works perfectly on win95, it's just 1 function. I wouldn't find it too fair to drop support just for that
18:39:09  <peter1138> it's like, 11 years old :D

18:39:36  <peter1138> #define DEBUG //
18:40:16  <Darkvater> yes I thought of that
18:40:40  <Rubidium> or implement it as a function for MSVC2k3?
18:40:44  <Darkvater> the problem is that the releases are done with VS2003 so you would not have debugging messages in an official release
18:40:58  <Darkvater> we could although release 2 different win32 binaries?
18:41:12  <glx> Darkvater: http://svn.libgpmi.org/svn/gpmi/trac.cgi/browser/trunk/gpmi/events.h and http://svn.libgpmi.org/svn/gpmi/trac.cgi/browser/trunk/gpmi/events.c (gpmi_event)
18:41:22  <Darkvater> Rubidium: I tried, couldn't get it to work. The problem is that the debug-names, eg 'ai', etc are not strings, nor variables
18:41:28  <glx> but you won't want it in openttd :)
18:41:40  <peter1138> Darkvater: turn the debug names into an enum constant?
18:41:47  <Prof_Frink> stillunknown: Winders Me.
18:42:05  <peter1138> then the debug thingy can be an array
18:42:35  <peter1138> it'll be slower, of course
18:43:04  <Darkvater> glx: ok, I'm not using that
18:43:22  <Darkvater> peter1138: :O
18:43:25  <Darkvater> you're a genius
18:43:29  <Darkvater> :)
18:43:50  <Darkvater> then I'll just plug into the debug_level array, lookup level and print

18:51:51  <FlashFF> did t'other day
18:51:53  <peter1138> FlashFF: because the game units are different

19:01:03  <stillunknown> or rather, what kind of return value does an assert give?
19:01:08  <peter1138> stations don't have semi-snow ground
19:01:12  <peter1138> it's either snow or no-snow
19:01:18  <stillunknown> or what does it do, if it doesn't give a return value
19:01:21  <glx> stillunknown: no return it stops execution
19:01:37  <stillunknown> so my return is NULL?
19:01:41  <glx> you need to check the tile before calling the function

20:09:53  <Digitalfox> yeah biff, but train would have to automaticly be sold, cause we can't have a maglev in a depot for monorail :)
20:10:08  <Biff> Digitalfox: no, it should convert the train
20:10:27  <Digitalfox> but to what wagon and machine??
20:10:38  <Biff> yes, the whole train
20:10:42  <Digitalfox> only if you had ordered the autorepace
20:10:48  <Biff> its the intuitive thing
20:11:46  <Biff> if you hit a convert on a depot you order a autoreplace
20:11:51  <Digitalfox> it's possible, but i think itt's a little complicated.. First you had to have autoreplace activaded with the machine and wagons you wanted to replace, and
20:12:28  <Digitalfox> yeah.. Don't know if dev's want to make this feature :|
20:12:33  *** wonea [~wonea@wonea.demon.co.uk] has joined #openttd
20:12:51  <Biff> no, its quite simple. in the autoreplace window you select what you want converted to what
20:13:35  <Biff> then if all trains in depot have rules to replace them, you can convert the trains and the depot
20:13:47  <Digitalfox> but it's ins't coded to autoreplace different tracks machines.. :(
20:14:03  <FlashFF> admittedly it would be useful, since the game becomes pretty pointless when it comes time to convert as its such a pain to do
20:14:14  <Digitalfox> yeah i know ;)
20:14:51  <Biff> Digitalfox: yes it is
20:14:56  <Rubidium> the idea is to build multitile depots with both monorail & maglev, so you can convert the trains in there and then convert the whole infrastructure
20:15:03  <Biff> it just has code that checks if a replacement is sane
20:15:05  <Rubidium> but nobody has had the urge to implement that
20:15:14  <Biff> Rubidium: and that is alot of work
20:15:17  <Biff> for a big network
20:15:22  <FlashFF> yeah but you still have to create each new vehicle manually and transfer orders
20:15:39  <FlashFF> and often i have like 75 - 100 trains by that point
20:15:52  <Rubidium> Biff: the conversion of trains would happen via autoreplace, but only in those multitile depots
20:15:58  <Biff> FlashFF: try 200
20:16:00  <FlashFF> lol
20:16:04  * FlashFF cries
20:16:08  <Biff> i've done it once :/
20:16:12  <Biff> never again
20:16:19  <Digitalfox> I know biff, i have almost 1800 trains by the time monorail appears
20:16:28  <Biff> Rubidium: then you would need to create a large number of depots
20:16:30  <Biff> Digitalfox: cool
20:16:36  <Digitalfox> so i know the work it means
20:16:43  <Biff> Digitalfox: how large maps do you usually play?
20:16:54  <Digitalfox> i sue the cheat pause or my last 50 years would be spend repacing
20:17:00  <Digitalfox> 1024 * 1024
20:17:01  <Rubidium> Biff: true, but upgrading shouldn't be cheap
20:17:12  <Biff> Rubidium: cheap how?
20:17:36  <FlashFF> so rubidium... get coding! lol
20:17:37  <Biff> Rubidium: if you require the user to do something thats utterly boring, and not at all hard, just repetative
20:17:46  <Biff> how is that a good feature in a game?
20:18:02  <Rubidium> how's that different to laying rail?
20:18:14  <Biff> people like laying rail
20:18:15  <Rubidium> but one multitile depot would be enough
20:18:28  <Biff> not replacing
20:18:40  <Rubidium> it just takes a hell of a lot of time till all trains have found their way to that single depot :)
20:18:46  <Digitalfox> Well i'm not a lazy person, but it's quite boring replacing depots and trains with monorail and maglev.. Now i'm using newgrf, so just maglev :)
20:18:47  <Biff> everyone who likes replacing trains manually, raise their hands
20:19:00  <stillunknown> would a (very) slow ridetrough maintenance be acceptable?
20:19:01  <Biff> Rubidium: exactly, so it should be as easy as possible
20:19:01  <Digitalfox> my hand is down.. :|
20:19:16  <Maedhros> back
20:19:45  <hylje> Biff: \o
20:20:00  <stillunknown> forget it
20:20:26  <hylje> station-like depots?
20:20:27  <hylje> plx?
20:20:44  <stillunknown> trying
20:20:58  <stillunknown> more like a mix between a depot, a waypoint and a station
20:21:00  <Biff> hylje: servicing should rather be done at the station then?
20:21:10  <hylje> its not a station, its a depot
20:21:15  <hylje> but behaves like a station
20:21:28  <FlashFF> you mean kinda like a siding IRL
20:21:30  <FlashFF> ?
20:21:56  <Biff> if it lookes like and behaves a station, then why cant the service men/women stand at the station and service the train
20:21:59  <Biff> ?
20:22:27  <Gonozal_VIII> replacing is not that hard, all trains with same orders in a depot, sell them all, convert the depot, buy a new train (automatically has the orders) and then clone the rest...
20:22:37  <hylje> Biff: they can, its the grf makers stuff
20:22:47  <stillunknown> i'm thinking (since it's practical in terms of code) to have a slow passtrough every time a locomotive passes
20:23:01  <Biff> Gonozal_VIII: with 200 trains, how is that not tedious?
20:23:29  <FlashFF> but gonzal  that would mean you have to go though and pick out each train that has the same orders and use a new depot for each set
20:24:02  <Gonozal_VIII> hmm is the list thing not in trunk?
20:24:34  <Biff> what list?
20:24:36  <Gonozal_VIII> list of all trains that visit a certain station and such
20:24:49  <Biff> yes, it is in trunk
20:25:02  <Gonozal_VIII> so then picking out the trains is not a problem
20:25:51  <Biff> then you still need to go to every industry
20:25:56  <Biff> where you have a station
20:25:58  <Biff> and do it
20:26:05  <Biff> its not practical with alot of trains
20:26:05  <FlashFF> not to mention...
20:26:14  <FlashFF> you need a separate depot for each set of orders!
20:26:17  <Gonozal_VIII> anyways, i would like that planned (?) feature, all i'm saying is that it's not THAT much work without it
20:26:31  <Biff> Gonozal_VIII: have you tried with many trains?
20:26:35  <Gonozal_VIII> yes
20:26:54  <FlashFF> have you tried with many trains on a large joined station?
20:26:55  <Biff> ok, you can have a savegame, convert all the trains and take note of how much time you use
20:27:05  <FlashFF> ntot with 1 track per route
20:27:07  <FlashFF> *not
20:27:13  <Gonozal_VIII> before i had dbset... now there's just normal rail so that problem is gone
20:28:38  *** gass [~any@81.84.150.238] has joined #openttd
20:28:46  <Gonozal_VIII> it is much work but not as much as the creation of the lines was
20:29:23  <Biff> building a large network is whats fun
20:30:39  <Biff> converting the trains are not
20:31:47  <Gonozal_VIII> yes... i didn't want to say, that it is best the way it is and shouldn't be optimized... i just wanted to say, that it's not as bad as: [21:15:22] <FlashFF> yeah but you still have to create each new vehicle manually and transfer orders
20:31:48  <peter1138> with ukrs, i never need anything other than rails
20:32:05  <peter1138> i do sometimes set up separate maglev routes though
20:32:10  <Gonozal_VIII> same with dbsetxl
20:32:17  <peter1138> yeah, but dbsetxl is ugly ;)
20:32:21  <Gonozal_VIII> why?
20:32:35  <peter1138> some of the engines are a bit... dubious
20:32:43  <peter1138> and i'm just biased
20:32:49  <Gonozal_VIII> hmm those are real engines..
20:33:01  <peter1138> yeah, i mean the graphics
20:33:35  <Gonozal_VIII> i like it :-)
20:35:10  <Biff> peter1138: well, you can always play with normal rails
20:35:18  <Biff> but it would be nice to be able to try maglev
20:35:46  <peter1138> they look so ugly too
20:35:48  <peter1138> the tracks that is
20:36:52  * peter1138 offski
20:37:54  <Biff> truth you speak
20:37:58  <MeusH> do you know some IRC channel aimed at midlet developement? Like java applications for mobile phones?
20:39:28  <Biff> does the uk industries set work in openttd?
20:39:38  <MeusH> no
20:40:23  <Biff> oh, to bad
20:40:25  <FlashFF> i found finding decent midlet dev communities was quite tough
20:40:28  <Biff> they looked kindof cool
20:40:48  <FlashFF> i couldnt even find ANY iappli developers
20:43:28  <FlashFF> every time i type anything... people go silent
20:43:49  <FlashFF> am i some kind of god?
20:43:50  <FlashFF> lol
20:48:22  <Biff> hmm
20:48:28  <Biff> yes you are
20:48:46  <Biff> where shall i place grf files? i tried ~/.openttd/data/pb_ukrs.grf
20:48:59  <Biff> and added pb_ukrs.grf under [newgrf] in the config file
20:49:03  *** tosse [tosse@tosse.pp.se] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
20:49:28  <Biff> result: no new trains, and the entry is removed from the config file
20:49:39  <Biff> and it does not show in the newgrf gui
20:50:07  <Darkvater> why aren't you using the ingame gui?
20:50:21  <Biff> because the wiki told me to do it this way
20:50:27  <Gonozal_VIII> wiki is old
20:50:29  <Darkvater> the wiki is outdated
20:50:32  <Biff> ok
20:50:51  <Biff> so this someone person hasnt updated it?
20:51:08  <Gonozal_VIII> yes, it's all someone's fault
20:51:20  <Biff> but, the gui does not detect the file when its in ~/.openttd/data
20:51:27  <Gonozal_VIII> stupid someone, never does anything right
20:51:28  <Biff> is that the correct folder
20:51:33  <Noldo> what everyone can do is no-one's responsibility
20:51:49  <Rubidium> Biff: currently it is not likely that that is the correct path
20:52:05  <Darkvater> it is if he used make install and set PERSONAL_DIR
20:52:19  <Darkvater> but brrr, that install thing is a blahck
20:52:26  <Biff> no, i used dpkg-buildpackage

20:54:57  <Rubidium> Biff: not yet, it is planned, but it is not completely implemented yet, i.e. it is 0.6 material
20:55:11  <Biff> but it's implemented?
20:55:18  <stillunknown> any hints on what it is Rubidium?

21:03:22  <Prof_Frink> better'n a broken van
21:04:30  <Gonozal_VIII> realistic deceleration... if that will be implemented
21:04:44  <hylje> yea, trains crashing
21:04:50  <Gonozal_VIII> :-)
21:05:43  <Gonozal_VIII> that would be really cool... more planning and testing needed when building crossings and such
21:06:18  <Gonozal_VIII> but then trains shouldn't be completely destroyed when they crash at low speed
21:06:19  <hylje> and jams would kill trains
21:06:24  <hylje> oh yeah
21:06:27  <hylje> give trains hitpoints
21:06:31  <Gonozal_VIII> hehe
21:06:33  <hylje> and each wagon got its own hp pool
21:06:40  <hylje> so if a train runs into the back of another
21:06:51  <hylje> both just lose the colliding stuff
21:07:06  <hylje> and possibly the rest take damages due to derail etc
21:07:14  <Gonozal_VIII> 3 speed ranges.. very low speed cras = nothing, low speed = breakdown, high speed = boom
21:07:49  <FlashFF> im bored
21:07:51  <FlashFF> what shall i code
21:08:00  <Gonozal_VIII> train hitpoints^^
21:08:41  <FlashFF> lol
21:09:39  <Darkvater> FlashFF: code us a ship pathfinder based on YAPF that does not consume lots of CPU
21:09:53  <Gonozal_VIII> hmmm ships
21:10:30  <Gonozal_VIII> only good thing on them is that they go through each other^^
21:11:07  <FlashFF> step 1: find out what yapf is
21:11:12  <Digitalfox> Flash code the number of sprites openttd can use to the double or more.. :)
21:11:21  <Gonozal_VIII> yet another pathfinder
21:11:25  <FlashFF> oh god
21:11:30  <Digitalfox> I'm tired of the the limit, making me only use a couple of set... :(
21:11:35  <FlashFF> made my a pure linux geek no doubt lol
21:11:38  <FlashFF> *by
21:11:48  <Gonozal_VIII> somebody is already working on sprite limit
21:12:04  <Darkvater> FlashFF: it's the pathfinder used in openttd. (coded by windows user :), named by someone else)
21:12:06  <FlashFF> whats the current limit?
21:12:08  <Darkvater> Yet Another Path Finder
21:12:10  <FlashFF> lol
21:12:17  <Digitalfox> yeah gonozal, but there's more important things the dev team have to do..
21:12:24  <Digitalfox> 16*** and something
21:12:25  <FlashFF> yeah i found the wiki page now
21:12:47  <Digitalfox> the problem with the limit is the newgrf you can use
21:13:43  <Digitalfox> this may be crazy, but i'm editing the set's i use, remving sprites of things i don't use so i can have more newgrf stuff. :(
21:13:46  <FlashFF> ok i can make a pathfinder that makes vehicles find out where they are going, as long as theres no options in the road/track at all!
21:14:11  <hylje> :D
21:14:32  <Digitalfox> if only editing the source code and doubling the sprites limit, was this easy.. :|
21:14:37  <Born_Acorn> hmm, that Eyecandy patch looks interesting
21:14:54  <Born_Acorn> It'll be good if it could have newobjects support whenever eis_os finishes it
21:14:58  <FlashFF> i dunno why it isn't digi
21:15:17  <FlashFF> surely the only thing that would limit it would be a value somewhere in the gfx engine
21:15:50  <Digitalfox> well. For what i understand of the source code, it it'a a lot more complicated than that
21:15:58  <Gonozal_VIII> yes, eyecandy sounds nice... better than surrounding a city that you don't want to expand with ugly signs
21:16:02  <FlashFF> hmmm
21:17:16  <Digitalfox> It seems the sprite limit is all present in a lot of line codes.. :|
21:17:29  <Digitalfox> And not just one simple code line
21:17:33  <FlashFF> still confused lol
21:17:53  <Digitalfox> But i'm a noob in programming, so don't take a word of this i just said.. ;)
21:17:56  <FlashFF> somewhere there must be a limit by a value
21:18:15  <Digitalfox> I'm sure a dev could explain to you..
21:18:24  <Digitalfox> Any dev out there?
21:20:03  <Darkvater> why are you guys still on about the sprite limit? peter's working on it, have a little patience
21:20:15  <glx> FlashFF: peter1138 has a patch to increase the limit but it is very very big :)
21:20:18  <Digitalfox> ok, sorry darvader :(
21:20:33  <Darkvater> we have a sprite limit because of the 32bit sprite there are available you can only use about 14. The others are used for transparency, recolouring, palette, etc.
21:21:00  <Darkvater> what quark did with his patch can break any moment
21:21:30  <Digitalfox> Any idea what's the new max value for peter patch?

22:42:38  <peter1138> sprite limit eh?
22:43:04  <RichK67> hi peter
22:43:17  <stillunknown> i need a bit advice, i want to make passtrough maintenance depots/waypoints, but i'd prefer it if they stop completely
22:43:34  <peter1138> FlashFF: 16k sprites isn't all that many
22:43:35  <stillunknown> i just don't know what is the sanest way to restart them after that
22:43:38  <peter1138> hi rich
22:45:02  <MeusH> stillunknown, tommorow I'll do some research on these depots. Unless Bjarni has done something already
22:46:46  <stillunknown> i was considering adding a third state, besides AM_ACCEL and AM_BRAKE, which would reset to AM_ACCEL once cur_speed 0 is reached
22:47:16  <peter1138> i don't think that's appropriate
22:47:33  <stillunknown> hence the question :-)
22:47:38  <peter1138> hence the answer ;p
22:49:04  <Born_Acorn> peter1138! newbuffers!
22:49:20  <MeusH> Born_Acorn! that's getting funny! :D
22:49:32  <MeusH> stillunknown, it really can be done the other way, trust me :)
22:49:36  <MeusH> but it's difficult
22:49:40  <peter1138> hehe
22:49:42  <Born_Acorn> It's not meant to be funny. :(
22:49:57  <peter1138> i was idly fiddling with 'autoslope', i'm afraid
22:49:58  <Darkvater> newsacs!
22:50:00  <MeusH> you see, I have the answer in my imagination, but when I start coding it all gets harder and harder
22:50:13  <peter1138> hehe
22:50:21  <Born_Acorn> Autoslope for OTTD?
22:50:23  <Rubidium> newrc!
22:50:39  <Born_Acorn> That takes priority over buffers!
22:50:39  <Darkvater> rc?
22:50:47  <Born_Acorn> Release Candidate!
22:50:48  <stillunknown> MeusH: i've got another idea, but i need to see if it's codeable in a sane way
22:51:00  <RichK67> now ive got away from MiniIN ... thank god... i think i may take another look at route colours
22:51:32  <MeusH> stillunknown, tell it
22:51:39  <Darkvater> oh
22:51:56  <MeusH> route colours? what's that?
22:52:02  <MeusH> maybye that's the secret "RC"? :p
22:52:14  <Darkvater> do we still need this manual.txt/multiplayer.txt in docs?
22:52:33  <peter1138> i've never read it
22:52:42  <stillunknown> MeusH: give me a minute to fill in the gaps (that i've just realised)
22:52:46  <Darkvater> lol
22:52:48  *** pecisk [~pecisk@purvc-44-54.maksinets.lv] has quit [Quit: J?iet prom]
22:52:49  <Darkvater>  - From 0.3.5, desyncs should not happen anymore
22:52:59  <MeusH> kk stillunknown
22:53:16  <MeusH> Darkvater, I don't have manual.txt, but multiplayer.txt seems to be usable
22:53:17  <peter1138> hehe
22:53:18  <peter1138> if only :)
22:53:57  <RichK67> its my evolution of speed signs - assign a colour to a train route, and mark that route by coloured signs... the PF would bias towards sending the train down that route... eg. slow freight - blue, fast freight - yellow, local (slow) passenger - red, fast passenger - green, etc... but totally up to user to decide what a colour means
22:54:41  <MeusH> so codewise there will be a number assigned to train/sign, and GUI will render a colour linked to the given number?
22:54:44  <RichK67> in effect it would let you sort your mainlines by speed, by destination, by whatever
22:54:52  <MeusH> yeah, that would be great
22:54:59  <RichK67> nah.. simpler... just 7 colours
22:55:13  <RichK67> = 3 bits
22:55:18  <MeusH> ok
22:55:30  <stillunknown> MeusH: i think i've got it now
22:55:42  <MeusH> RichK67, there's been a discussion about lines
22:55:45  <RichK67> the colour markers would just bias the pathfinder
22:55:50  <MeusH> like in simutrans
22:55:55  <MeusH> aha
22:55:56  <MeusH> ok
22:56:32  <RichK67> so if the colour is the same, a positive bias... otherwise neutral
22:56:34  <hylje> id rather have hardcoded colours
22:56:43  <hylje> less confusion among users
22:57:16  <stillunknown> first loc approaches, reliability lower than max, slows down to speed 0, the restarts, reliability is maximum so it now stays below maximum depot speed, but since the reliability is maximum it won't trigger another complete stop
22:57:19  <stillunknown> at MeusH
22:57:23  <RichK67> yup - just 7 colours... no need to predefine what they mean though
22:57:38  <MeusH> hylje, it will be a disguise for competitors :)
22:57:43  <peter1138> i'd rather have... a few pints
22:58:05  <RichK67> whisky is my poison :)
22:58:16  <MeusH> stillunknown, I'd be happy with advanced signals
22:58:27  <MeusH> or...
22:58:27  <peter1138> hmm, i need to update this sprite limit patch
22:58:28  <MeusH> hmm
22:58:32  <peter1138> due to the bridge merge
22:58:40  <peter1138> bye
22:58:46  <MeusH> so that one could send train somewhere only if it needs servicing
22:58:50  <MeusH> bye peter1138
22:59:06  <stillunknown> no, what i'm suggesting is ride through depot
22:59:11  <MeusH> stillunknown, I've got to check how does "Service" order work
22:59:15  <RichK67> bbl - got a network to build ;)
22:59:22  <RichK67> better than watching cricket ;)
22:59:25  <stillunknown> which would stop the train if in need of repair
22:59:37  <MeusH> stillunknown, if you combine that signalling with roro depots, that will be what you want
22:59:43  <MeusH> but the depots won't be on mainline
22:59:50  <MeusH> they will be on sideline instead
22:59:58  <MeusH> bye RichK67

23:00:15  <stillunknown> yes, speed limitations will be present all the way, so it's a restriction
23:00:55  <stillunknown> just considering if i can make every engine stop, since they all need maintenance
23:01:06  <mattt_> any docs on building an efficient train station where there's significant amounts of traffic?  my trains are getting backed up way down the line and there's only like 2 platforms used at a time
23:01:11  <stillunknown> MeusH: i'm going to use waypoints as a baseline
23:01:19  <MeusH> stillunknown, and I'll use stations

23:03:17  <Gonozal_VIII> mattt, signals between the platform entrys, long enough rails before the platform so that they won't slow down on the mainline and everything should work
23:05:15  <Tuzlo> do oil refineries become of at a certain date?
23:05:58  <Gonozal_VIII> become of?
23:06:29  <Tuzlo> when the hell do they appear?
23:06:45  <Tuzlo> I have oil wells, no refineries that I can find
23:06:50  <Gonozal_VIII> not very often...
23:07:05  <Gonozal_VIII> only had one appearing in 100 game years of the last game
23:07:30  <Gonozal_VIII> you can fund one
23:07:36  <Tuzlo> guess so
23:08:22  <mattt_> any plans on a patch to allow bridges over diagonal rail ^_^
23:08:32  <Gonozal_VIII> ^^
23:08:37  <Gonozal_VIII> it is in trunk
23:08:50  <mattt_> snap, you guys think of everything ;)
23:09:08  <Gonozal_VIII> even with signals under the bridge :-)
23:09:09  <Darkvater> some people are so hopelessly outdated ;)
23:09:18  <mattt_> w00t!
23:09:21  <mattt_> that's awesome
23:09:32  <Tuzlo> haha, got no suitable land for one
23:09:44  <mattt_> it'd be cool to have the signals on the bridge posts :)
23:09:48  <Rubidium> Tuzlo: they need to be near the edge of the map
23:10:02  <Tuzlo> thought so
23:10:06  <Tuzlo> how far?
23:10:09  <Tuzlo> 12 spaces?

23:12:38  <PandaMojo> Well, last I'd checked it was out, but I hadn't checked recently
23:12:42  <Gonozal_VIII> should be 16
23:14:12  <stillunknown> bridges over diagonal rail is in trunk
23:14:41  <Gonozal_VIII> yes but oil raf distance i don't know..
23:15:42  <mattt_> know what would be cool?  being able to purchase houses in town so you can tear 'em down - the idea is that purchasing the house would circumvent the local authority's rating of you (it'd be expensive though)
23:16:15  <mattt_> one stupid house blocking the path of a huge section of rail right now :P
23:16:26  <Gonozal_VIII> trees do the trick :-)
23:16:29  <mattt_> i destroyed the town though so my rating is crap
23:16:40  <mattt_> yeah, i've put in tons of trees
23:17:08  <Gonozal_VIII> destroy all of them around town and then replant half of them... rating should be good then^^

23:26:07  <Darkvater> you mean porting gcc?
23:30:43  <mattt_> if i'm building a multi-entrance platform (ie: 4 platforms with a pair of incoming tracks both of which split in two to serve a total of 4 platforms) how would I do the presignals?  I'm thinking a presignal entrance right before the main line splits in two, and on each split i'd have a combo, and then before the platform i'd have presignal exits?
23:32:50  <Gonozal_VIII> platform, normal signal, decelerating/waiting line, presignal exit, split, presignal entrance
23:33:21  <mattt_> but what about when the mainline splits?
23:33:34  <stillunknown> what's the date format in ottd?

23:35:27  <orudge> os2.c is very Watcom specific
23:35:33  <orudge> some of the stuff needs to be ported to work with gcc
