00:00:13  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: yeah ... making stupidity relative always works :)
00:00:35  <TrueBrain> "If it appears broken, don't use it"
00:00:39  <TrueBrain> will be my new slogan
00:00:49  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: nah...
00:01:11  <Prof_Frink> "If it ain't broke, you ain't played with it enough."
00:01:22  <Skyruner2> Rubidium: remove the source of "stupid"
00:01:28  <TrueBrain> haha, and at this moment, a new slashdot article appears:
00:01:43  <TrueBrain> http://news.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09%2F01%2F02%2F2254238&from=rss
00:01:45  <TrueBrain> what are the odds ...
00:01:56  <Skyruner2> great :)
00:02:14  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: "if appears broken don't tell what is broken, but tell everyone it is broken and that the developers haven't fixed it yet"
00:02:48  <Rubidium> Skyruner2: ALT-F4 only moves me to the source of "stupid", i.e. the workspace with my browser with tt-forums opened
00:03:01  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: I only agree with the first part :)
00:03:43  <Wolf01> 'night
00:03:46  <TrueBrain> always reminds me a customer called me: "My computer gave an error" - "which error?" - "I don't know, I clicked it away" - "so why do you call me?" - "I just wanted to let you know I had an error"
00:03:47  *** Wolf01 [~wolf01@host105-233-dynamic.14-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has quit [Quit: Once again the world is quick to bury me.]
00:03:51  <qball> yeah nothing like a bug report: it does not work
00:03:58  <TrueBrain> after that there was a clear sound of me bashing my head against the wall
00:04:18  <qball> TrueBrain: sorry, it was me
00:04:32  <TrueBrain> I asked in return if that person also wanted to call me when she was going to the toilet
00:04:34  <Skyruner2> Rubidium: i meant to suggest alt+f4 to the user complaining on the forum as a fix to his problem
00:04:38  <TrueBrain> it was neve runderstood :(
00:06:13  <TrueBrain> anyway ... Rubidium: still count 10 fingers?
00:06:24  *** luddek [~luddek@c-12cae455.610-106-64736c10.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #openttd
00:06:47  <TrueBrain> welcome luddek
00:06:52  <Rubidium> nope, I count 1010 ;)
00:06:58  <luddek> thank you truebrain
00:07:17  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: well, if you count like that, I hope you can count to 1111111111
00:07:46  <Rubidium> ;)
00:08:45  <TrueBrain> people always look at me all confused when I say I can count up to 1024 on my fingers ..
00:08:56  <goodger> ^_^
00:09:13  <TrueBrain> once they asked me to proof it ..
00:09:15  <TrueBrain> that was a dull night
00:09:22  <qball> ha ha ha
00:09:23  <goodger> wait
00:09:53  <goodger> it should be 2047
00:09:54  <Rubidium> last time I tried I overflowed after 1023
00:10:10  <Skyruner2> ^^
00:10:14  <qball> signed or unsigned
00:10:28  <goodger> unless you stop with 1000000000
00:10:30  <TrueBrain> goodger: I have no idea how much fingers you have .......
00:10:41  <goodger> I have 10 fingers
00:10:42  <Roujin> lol
00:10:44  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: always a nasty side-effect :)
00:10:52  <TrueBrain> goodger: 2^8 is ...
00:11:01  <Roujin> wheres the calc bot
00:11:11  <qball> TrueBrain: two's complement?
00:11:15  <TrueBrain> Roujin: people should learn this by head :)
00:11:18  <Roujin> calc bot dear calc bot please tell goodger what 2^10 is ;)
00:11:24  <goodger> the maximum binary number expressible with ten digits is (2**11)-1
00:11:38  <goodger> Roujin: 10^1 is 1000000000
00:11:52  <goodger> the maximum number is 1111111111, which is 10^11-1
00:11:52  <TrueBrain> I think goodger needs some kind of leason in binary counting ...
00:12:28  <Rubidium> wow... so with one bit you can count from 0 to 3
00:12:39  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: a quadbit!
00:12:44  <qball> :D
00:13:06  <goodger> I am quite confident that I am able to count in binary
00:13:06  <Skyruner2> i use both my eyes aswell.. also sticking out my toung is another bit aswell as closing/opening my mouth... i can raise both my big toes but usualy people can tell when im wearing shoes - same problem with breathing in/ out
00:13:11  <TrueBrain> goodger: in here in general it is wise to either know what you are talking about, or shut the fuck up ;)
00:13:37  <Roujin> 10^1 is 1000000000  <--- I am not entirely sure what to say about this oO
00:13:45  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: just show goodger 132 counted binary on your fingers
00:13:46  <Eddi|zuHause> Skyruner2: i would not recommend sticking out your tongue and closing your mouth at the same time
00:13:52  <TrueBrain> but it is very cool, that with 8 bits, you can count up to 511 ... that redefines all our computers instant ....
00:13:54  <goodger> sorry, (2^11)-1
00:14:02  <qball> goodger: please count to 2047 on 10 fingers.
00:14:10  <qball> I'll wait
00:14:16  <qball> please paste every step
00:14:21  <TrueBrain> qball: an other dull night it is ;)
00:14:28  <TrueBrain> and a frustrating one for that matter :)
00:14:31  <qball> TrueBrain: yeah.
00:14:38  <qball> TrueBrain: but the outcome might be fun
00:14:44  <Rubidium> more Yoda thou shalt speak
00:14:47  <TrueBrain> 1023 .... 0 ... 1 ... 2 ....
00:14:54  <qball> TrueBrain: I got a good bottle of whiskey to keep me company
00:15:02  <TrueBrain> qball: hmm .. whiskey might do the trick
00:15:08  <TrueBrain> I think in the end you will have your 11th bit :)

00:15:20  <TrueBrain> (the end of the bottle, that is)
00:15:25  <qball> TrueBrain: or none at all
00:15:29  <goodger> qball: ok, you raise each of your ten digits, which is 1111111111, which is one less than 10000000000, or in other words, (2**11)-1, which according to google is 2047
00:15:38  <qball> allready had some nice 14 years old today
00:15:53  <Roujin> goodger: you're obiwan.
00:16:02  <qball> goodger: no no
00:16:04  <qball> start at 1
00:16:15  <TrueBrain> qball: lol :)
00:16:17  <goodger> eh?
00:16:24  <TrueBrain> 0000000001
00:16:24  <goodger> I don't follow
00:16:29  <TrueBrain> 0000000010
00:16:32  <TrueBrain> 0000000011
00:16:32  <goodger> yes, that's 1
00:16:34  <TrueBrain> 0000000100
00:16:34  <goodger> and that's 2
00:16:35  <TrueBrain> 0000000101
00:16:37  <TrueBrain> 0000000110
00:16:37  <goodger> and that's 3

00:16:57  <Roujin> you're OffByOne
00:16:59  <TrueBrain> take us to 2047, or math-user
00:17:02  <goodger> so eventually, you will end up with 1111111111
00:17:03  <TrueBrain> or = oh
00:17:20  <TrueBrain> abuser
00:17:22  <TrueBrain> math-abuser
00:17:23  <TrueBrain> yeah :)
00:17:29  <Eddi|zuHause> goodger: 1 is 2^0
00:17:32  <Roujin> goodger: the least significant bit is worth 2^0, not 2^1
00:17:41  <Eddi|zuHause> 10 is 2^1
00:17:47  <Roujin> you started counting at 1, not at 0
00:17:48  <Eddi|zuHause> 100 is 2^2
00:17:55  <Eddi|zuHause> 10000 is 2^4
00:18:03  <TrueBrain> as I said a few minutes ago ... goodger needs some bitwise counting leasons
00:18:04  <Eddi|zuHause> 1 0000 0000 is 2^8
00:18:10  <Eddi|zuHause> 100 0000 0000 is 2^10
00:18:15  <Eddi|zuHause> not 2^11
00:18:32  <TrueBrain> if only goodger would have tried counting on his fingers ...
00:18:35  <goodger> ah, yes, I see.
00:18:44  <TrueBrain> 1 2 4 8 16       32 64 128 256 512
00:18:51  <qball> 1777 = 3ff = 1023 = 1111111111
00:18:54  <TrueBrain> then he would have not made such an ass out of itself ...
00:19:03  <qball> TrueBrain: big endian?
00:19:06  <Rubidium> using goodger's math: 10000000000 = 2^11 -> 1000000000 = 2^10 -> 100000000 = 2^9 -> 10000000 = 2^8 -> 1000000 = 2^7 -> 100000 = 2^6 -> 10000 = 2^5 -> 1000 = 2^4 -> 100 = 2^3 -> 10 = 2^2 -> 1 = 2^1 -> 1/2 = 2^0 = 1
00:19:08  <TrueBrain> (itself, by the lack of gender-check)
00:19:24  <TrueBrain> qball: yes
00:19:30  <TrueBrain> big endian is more useful for humans :)
00:19:33  <Roujin> heh, TrueBrain has big endian fingers *snicker*
00:19:35  <TrueBrain> little endian is only useful for machines :)
00:19:52  <Eddi|zuHause> 1/2 = 1 might not be the most useful equation :p
00:19:58  <goodger> yes, yes, I was mistaken
00:19:59  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: I think we all want to deposit like .... 50 eurocent to goodger
00:20:02  <goodger> no need to rub it in
00:20:03  <TrueBrain> then w eget 1 euro in return :)
00:20:20  <TrueBrain> yes, big need to rub it in
00:20:25  <goodger> TrueBrain: no, you'll get 1.01 euro... haven't you seen the price of sterling recently?
00:20:28  * TrueBrain gets the sponses ...
00:20:35  <TrueBrain> even better to me
00:20:38  <TrueBrain> what is your account number?
00:20:39  <Skyruner2> we could just use a modified IEEE754 to represent numbers with fingers
00:20:43  <Eddi|zuHause> reminds me of that time when some person in here was complaining when i explained the refit masks in big endian
00:20:46  <Rubidium> and... that would redefine 2 to be the same as 1, so he can only count to 1
00:20:48  <TrueBrain> lol @ Skyruner2 :)
00:20:49  <qball> I guess goodger worked at the banks in america
00:20:56  <Skyruner2> thatway we could get quite big numbers.. but also less accurate with big numbers :P
00:21:14  <goodger> qball: no, I made a fairly simple mistake
00:21:24  <TrueBrain> a very BASIC mistake
00:21:29  <qball> that's what they said
00:21:29  <TrueBrain> like ... not using your fingers
00:21:39  <goodger> why on earth would I use my fingers?
00:21:54  <TrueBrain> I tihnk goodger needs to re-read the start of this conversation :)
00:21:55  <qball> to not act like a complete ass
00:22:07  <qball> eeuh
00:22:11  <Rubidium> making a mistake isn't bad, but keeping claiming you are right and 4 people are wrong makes you well...
00:22:12  <qball> make a complete ass of thouself
00:22:22  <goodger> I can't add 512, 256, 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2 and 1 in my head
00:22:28  <TrueBrain> I can ...
00:22:29  <qball> goodger: no?
00:22:33  <TrueBrain> 512 * 2 - 1
00:22:36  <TrueBrain> ;)
00:22:48  <TrueBrain> I can even do it in hex ...
00:23:05  <TrueBrain> 0x200 * 2 - 1 ;)
00:23:12  <goodger> so I skipped to (2**n-1), making the forgiveable mistake of forgetting that it's actually (2**(n-1)-1)
00:23:26  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: how much is 0x20 - 020?
00:23:29  <Roujin> tadump *dish*
00:23:48  <TrueBrain> goodger: I don't think you can make the disision for us if your mistake is forgivable or not
00:23:51  <TrueBrain> that is kind of rude to claim
00:23:59  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: I have a bot for that :p
00:24:02  <TrueBrain> @base 16 10 20
00:24:02  <DorpsGek> TrueBrain: 32
00:24:05  <goodger> ¬.¬ no, it's not
00:24:07  <TrueBrain> @base 8 10 20
00:24:07  <DorpsGek> TrueBrain: 16
00:24:17  <TrueBrain> @base 10 16 48
00:24:17  <DorpsGek> TrueBrain: 30
00:24:24  <TrueBrain> @base 10 8 48
00:24:24  <DorpsGek> TrueBrain: 60
00:24:24  <goodger> claiming you're a smug wanker would be a rude claim. claiming you should forgive my mistake is not
00:24:28  <TrueBrain> so 0x30 or 060 ;)

00:24:47  <Eddi|zuHause> he said -, not +
00:24:50  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: both wrong
00:24:51  <TrueBrain> goodger: no no, you did not claim we SHOULD forgive your mistake, you claimed we HAV ENO CHOICE to forgive your mistake
00:25:01  * TrueBrain feels stupid .... sorry Rubidium :)
00:25:02  <goodger> no, I did not
00:25:08  <TrueBrain> there was a bit of a noise on the line
00:25:10  <goodger> I said the mistake was forgiveable
00:25:18  <qball> TrueBrain: excuses excuses
00:25:18  <TrueBrain> so you made that choice for us?
00:25:27  <goodger> I didn't say "you HAV ENO CHOICE to forgive my mistake"
00:25:27  <TrueBrain> I think we should go to court and see if your mistake is forgiveable :)
00:25:28  <qball> goodger: you where a bit off
00:25:35  <TrueBrain> lol @ qball :)
00:25:43  <Rubidium> but I'll give you 80% of the total points for the answer as the explanation was correct
00:25:46  <goodger> I CBA with this
00:25:55  * TrueBrain hugs Rubidium :)
00:26:08  <goodger> it doesn't _matter_ whether you forgive my mistake or not
00:26:10  <TrueBrain> bit is such a nice word
00:26:35  <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: he only made a sign error, which, unless the complexity of the calculation is changed significantly, warrants only 1 point reduced
00:26:53  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: and you could get 5 points for the assignment ... hence the 80% ;)
00:26:54  <TrueBrain> lol
00:27:16  <qball> goodger: you where a bit bitten down forgiveness
00:27:17  <Eddi|zuHause> hm, our assignments here typically got 4 points
00:27:25  <TrueBrain> lol :)
00:27:32  <TrueBrain> so you wanted to reduce my score to 75%?
00:27:38  <TrueBrain> what is that for a new years gift :(
00:27:47  <qball> anyway night
00:27:50  <Eddi|zuHause> qball: you mean the verb, which is spelled "were", "where" is a question word
00:27:51  <TrueBrain> night qball

00:28:24  <TrueBrain> who calls himself a cow?

00:30:05  <TrueBrain> I wish I had a newzbin invitation ..
00:30:10  <Rubidium> just make a patch and add the appropriate overlay to gentoo
00:30:51  <TrueBrain> writing my own IRC client is still on my todo :)
00:31:02  <TrueBrain> but it requires a rather complex structure to support what I want :)
00:31:14  <qball> TrueBrain: you should let goodger do the bitmasks.. he is good at it
00:31:23  <TrueBrain> qball: now that is lame ;)

00:31:39  <TrueBrain> but lame-encoder is one of th emost used mp3 encoders .. so I take it ;)

00:33:50  <TrueBrain> Roujin: just thinking how goodger thinks
00:34:00  <TrueBrain> 511 fits in 8 bits in the world he painted
00:34:09  <qball> we are still a bit fuzzy on his logic
00:34:12  <TrueBrain> so .. 511 & 0xFF is still 511 :)
00:34:16  <goodger> I don't think like that
00:34:16  <Rubidium> Roujin: the Goodgerian theorem of applied whit mathematics
00:34:21  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: euuh .. okay ... :p
00:34:26  <goodger> I just forgot a tiny part of an equation I haven't used in years
00:34:51  <qball> goodger: that wasn't the problem
00:35:00  <TrueBrain> I wonder what other cool things we can do with that logic
00:35:14  <TrueBrain> at least -255 also fits in 8 bits
00:35:21  <Rubidium> mixing octal and decimal is much more fun than playing with bitmasks
00:35:27  <TrueBrain> I agree
00:35:29  <Rubidium> or hexadecimals
00:35:44  <TrueBrain> well, the question: what is 32 - 020
00:35:48  <TrueBrain> is much more tricky ;)
00:36:04  <Roujin> you mean like, halloween == christmas ?
00:36:13  <Rubidium> Roujin: yes

00:39:01  <TrueBrain> no, my own IRC client would not be like any IRC client you know :) It would have a server, where several clients can attach to (I am a lot on the way lately, and I hate to not being able to login from everywhere) .. it would show me the missed lines when I rejoin (with correct times) ... it would give much more info about users .. it would colour lines nicely ... my list is long :p
00:39:04  <TrueBrain> lol @ qball :)
00:39:09  <TrueBrain> qball: you were going to bed, remember?
00:39:11  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: tnx :)

00:40:23  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: a very advanced, yes
00:40:44  <Eddi|zuHause> what happened to screen+irssi?
00:41:07  <TrueBrain> the fact that I love GUIs, most likely :)

00:41:37  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, i can understand that argument ;)

00:42:01  <TrueBrain> same idea, same central redirection
00:42:03  <Eddi|zuHause> it's only that this was the most favourite way of other people that were confronted with the mobility problem

00:55:47  <TrueBrain> well, on average not bad ;)

06:44:11  <Eddi|zuHause> sounds better than snow in rome ;)
06:46:17  <goodger> "they always say it is the wrong sort of snow; our trains are brand-new, shiny machines that apparently cannot tolerate the slightest scattering of snow because it is the 'wrong sort'. in the soviet union, they have horrible clanking things that survive three-foot drifts covering the tracks in temperatures theoretically too low for humans to survive; we should import some of _that_ type of snow..."

07:57:55  <Rubidium> tried grfcrawler?
08:02:25  <Moodles> ive noticed on hard, the ai doesnt do trains like it did with my old 0.5.x install.. only sem to do plane routes
08:05:07  <Eddi|zuHause> i haven't played with AI for a decade
08:05:22  <Eddi|zuHause> or more...
08:08:13  <enra> yeah - grf crawler only has set 3
08:08:22  <enra> set 3 needs set 2 installed
08:08:49  <Rubidium> that's odd
08:08:59  <Rubidium> as for me it doesn't need version 3
08:09:55  <Rubidium> uhm... version 2 ofcourse ;)
08:10:00  <enra> it doesn't?  the website says it does
08:10:23  <Rubidium> what website says it where?
08:12:27  <enra> oh - never mind - major blond moment there - the website refers to TTD - not OTTD
08:12:46  <enra> i just realised after reading it a few dozen times lol
08:20:15  <Jerimiah40> lol, I've made that exact mistake :
08:21:07  <goodger> Eddi|zuHause: the AI is a useful source of profit --- just buy up the profitable competitors...
08:22:52  <petern> uh
08:23:19  <petern> the AI is a 'useful' source of annoying road, annoying track, annoying terraforming, and annoying bulldozing of towns...
08:23:42  <Moodles> AI used to compete with my heavily for coal routes
08:23:46  <Moodles> *me
08:24:00  <goodger> it doesn't usually terraform or bulldoze towns for me...
08:24:22  <goodger> and once you've bought them, you can easily remove the roads and tracks that are actually annoying
08:24:35  <petern> it doesn't if you play on flat maps

08:28:33  *** WhiteRhino is now known as AmanoJaku
08:28:46  *** AmanoJaku is now known as WhiteRhino
08:29:23  <petern> We do?
08:29:32  <goodger> apparently.
08:29:54  <WhiteRhino> I'm new to this IRC stuff, don't mind my ramblings.
08:30:29  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, i go to sleep
08:34:22  <George> Eddi|zuHause: [05:27:19] <Eddi|zuHause> and you should suggest George to put a better understandable error message for people who are playing 0.6 and never heard of nightlies before
08:34:26  <George> What text?
08:34:50  <Eddi|zuHause> George: error message when ECS is loaded in too old version of openttd
08:35:27  <George> I know what we a speaking about. I meant what text to put there?
08:35:57  <George> 5 * 11	 0B 83 7F 06 "r14569" 00
08:36:19  <Eddi|zuHause> when someone tries to load ECS beta 5 in openttd 0.6, it is not very useful to tell him "needs rXXXXX", as that person most likely has not heard of revisions, trunk or nightlies before
08:36:48  <George> I understand what you do not like. I ask what to put instaed?
08:37:05  <Eddi|zuHause> the only reasonable thing that i can imagine would be "0.7"
08:37:11  <Eddi|zuHause> even if that is not out yet
08:37:24  <Rubidium> 0.7 (rXXXXX) ?
08:37:28  <George> Wouldn't it be more confusing?
08:38:46  <George> Eddi|zuHause: P.S. Good morning :)
08:39:07  <Eddi|zuHause> i was awake the whole night...
08:39:25  <goodger> me too...
08:39:29  <Eddi|zuHause> huge, probably carreer deciding, deadline in 2 weeks...
08:39:46  <goodger> :S
08:39:50  <George> Yes, new year hollidays moves the night time :)
08:39:57  <Eddi|zuHause> and the probability for an extension is like 0,2%
08:41:19  <George> ops. And wee have holidays here! 10 days of holidays!
08:41:39  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, but holidays don't help if the thing has to be done...
08:41:41  <WhiteRhino> If I might ask, what's the difference between the Stable and Nightly downloads?
08:42:15  <Eddi|zuHause> well, nightlies are development builds
08:42:35  <Eddi|zuHause> they undergo less testing, and might contain serious bugs
08:42:38  <Eddi|zuHause> or not work at all
08:42:41  <WhiteRhino> So stick to the Stable one, really?
08:42:52  <Eddi|zuHause> well, they are fine usually
08:43:08  <Eddi|zuHause> but it's not guaranteed to stay that way
08:43:37  <Rubidium> Eddi|zuHause: tell that the people who trashed their savegame with articulated vehicles
08:44:53  *** Moodles [Tallarines@60-242-71-35.tpgi.com.au] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
08:47:22  <George> Eddi|zuHause, Rubidium: so, you think 0.7 (rXXXXX) would be ok for the user, who uses stable version? And if you'd realise v0.6.4, they would not work?
08:47:25  <Eddi|zuHause> people who do not follow the development process should most likely stick to the stable. stable builds are also more useful in multiplayer
08:48:09  <Eddi|zuHause> George: if you did the check correctly, it should not load in 0.6.4
08:48:10  <WhiteRhino> Second question: I lost my TTD disk (it was the DOS one anyway), and torrented TTD tonight.. but the only one I could find of decent size was already patched with some other, non-OpenTTD thing. Is that potentially going to be a problem?
08:48:26  *** Moodles [Tallarines@60-242-71-35.tpgi.com.au] has joined #openttd
08:48:55  <Eddi|zuHause> George: the features that you need from the nightlies are with 99,9% probability not going to be in any possible future 0.6.x release
08:48:58  <Rubidium> you could also wait for the next stable release when releasing your NewGRFs, like mb seems to be doing
08:50:13  <WhiteRhino> Ah, the one I got has TTDPatch with it.
08:50:48  <Rubidium> you could also check whether someone's playing a non-stable and give a different error message, though I wouldn't know what error message
08:50:51  <George> Eddi|zuHause: Does a feature list for 0.6.4 documented anywhere?
08:50:55  <Eddi|zuHause> WhiteRhino: a) we do not endorse illegal downloads, b) it should be fine, you only need the data files
08:51:18  <Eddi|zuHause> George: 0.6.x builds only get bugfixes
08:51:22  <WhiteRhino> Ah, sorry.
08:51:47  <Eddi|zuHause> c) you could have just looked in the forums ;p
08:52:42  <WhiteRhino> Ah.. thought the IRC channel was more the place to ask questions. Is it meant more for development stuff..?
08:53:59  <Eddi|zuHause> the IRC channel is fine for asking questions, but most of them have been answered in the forum before
08:54:49  <WhiteRhino> I was more hoping to hang around other people who play TTD. Promise I'll keep my questions to a minimum. =P
08:55:05  <Eddi|zuHause> that was not what i meant

09:32:18  <petern> well, i assume
09:32:23  <goodger> yes, hence why I pointed it out

09:38:52  <yorick> :D

09:39:52  <yorick> "don't" even use dailup
09:40:00  <yorick> dailup is evil

09:40:52  <yorick> WhiteRhino: adsl?
09:41:05  <petern> actually it's because you don't have strndup, heh
09:41:30  <petern> yorick, yeah, but our OSX porter believes it doesn't work properly on OSX.
09:41:45  <yorick> your OSX porter is Bjarni, right?
09:41:51  <WhiteRhino> Where I live doesn't support anything but cable, and that's freakin' expensive.
09:41:56  <darks> petern: so which func is similar to strndup?
09:42:27  <darks> yorick: but it's longtime no see Bjarni....
09:42:47  <yorick> any of you actually believes bjarni?

09:43:55  <petern> darks, i don't know

12:17:08  <Rubidium> petern: would interesting to plot TTDP's realistic acceleration too
12:17:29  <petern> it wouldn't be much different :)
12:17:32  <petern> but yes, i could do that
12:18:08  <petern> hmm
12:18:15  <Rubidium> what's the meaning of each of the lines though?
12:18:26  <petern> oh ,whoops
12:18:34  <petern> that was external to the images :D
12:18:47  <SmatZ> :-)
12:19:11  <petern> green is tractive effort from the engine, red is resistance, and blue is effective tractive effort
12:19:39  <petern> what i can see is that ottd's formula is too dependent on mass
12:19:57  <petern> so that magic constant can just be turned down a bit
12:20:42  <petern> if i increase the mass by an order of magnitude, the maximum attainable speed drops by less than 5 m/s
12:20:58  <petern> in ottd it drops by 35 m/s
12:21:06  <petern> this is the bit that kudr was complaining about
12:21:32  <petern> the blue line is divided by mass to get the acceleration
12:21:46  <petern> there's no point showing it on the graph as mass is constant, so it follows the blue line exactly
12:22:18  <petern> so that means a heavier vehicle can get up to almost the same speed, but it will take longer to do so
12:22:23  <petern> which, to me, sounds correct.
12:23:39  <Zuu> hmm, having OpenTTD on highlight in #openttd is not such a good idea :p

12:45:34  <petern> here we go, it works now...
12:45:36  <petern> http://iis.fuzzle.org/default.aspx
12:46:48  <petern> hmm, not quite right :o
12:47:55  <petern> oh, yes it is, i just put the values in wrong, hah
12:49:34  * SmatZ likes charts :)
12:50:08  <TrueBrain> hello SmatZ :)
12:50:42  <petern> heh
12:50:56  <petern> if you put a very high mass in, you can see ottd's kick off looking very odd :)
12:51:08  <SmatZ> hello TrueBrain :)
12:51:11  <petern> especially up a slope
12:51:18  <petern> put 0.03 in for ottd's slopes
12:51:37  <petern> that's another thing, ttdpatch uses 5% not 3% for slopes
12:52:08  <petern> which makes a huge difference
12:52:18  <qball> 2%
12:52:46  <petern> visually they are 50% ;)
12:52:46  <TrueBrain> 10 / 10000 / 10000 / 0.03 <- that gives a nice OTTD graphs :)
12:53:03  <petern> lol
12:53:42  <petern> 10kN TE is pretty tricky with 10kg mass...
12:53:50  <TrueBrain> ;)
12:53:59  <TrueBrain> still .. it goes all red and blue :p
12:54:06  <petern> yeah
12:56:22  <TrueBrain> I forgot to bring my DVI cable ... now I am down to one screen .. bleh :(
12:56:23  <TrueBrain> oh well
12:56:58  <petern> right, i shall add ttdpatch's model
12:57:07  <petern> and possibly original...
12:57:18  <petern> which kudr said was the most realistic, hahah
12:57:36  <TrueBrain> LOL!
12:57:39  <TrueBrain> he really said that? :)
12:57:40  <qball> original is annoying to play
12:57:42  <petern> yes
12:57:47  <TrueBrain> how silly :)
12:57:51  <qball> the train come to a emergency halt on all up slopes
12:58:25  <petern> actually i won't model it because it doesn't use any values like that
12:58:38  <petern> it's just power/mass..., so...

14:11:51  <petern> we ought to increase slopes....
14:12:06  <petern> 3% is a lot, but not when only a 1/5th of a train is on it
14:12:10  <insulfrog> I have a bit of a question, in the latest ttdpatch nightly, I am having trouble making this GRF from here -> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=634134#p634134 work.  I have put the GRF in the 'Newgrf' folder but there is an extra PCX file called 'jsignals_2.pcx' with a jsignals.nfo (which can't be read for some reason).  Where do I put this 'jsignals_2.pcx'?
14:12:37  <TrueBrain> channel name: #openttd
14:12:41  <TrueBrain> question related to: ttdpatch
14:12:44  <TrueBrain> doesn't feel right ...
14:12:53  <petern> you don't need those pcx and nfo files, they're just the source of the grf
14:12:59  <insulfrog> ah
14:13:56  <insulfrog> Also, have I put the 'jsignals.grf' in the right area?
14:14:14  <petern> that i don't know
14:14:19  <petern> did you add it to your newgrf.cfg?

14:17:35  <Rubidium> are there patch options for that?
14:18:48  <petern> there're patch options for everything...
14:20:39  <insulfrog> I believe its part of the 'experimentalfeatures.signalgui' setting (which is on)
14:21:28  <Rubidium> ah... you didn't reply on my commit... then your statements makes a lot more sense
14:22:55  <petern> heh, no
14:23:00  <insulfrog> hmm, does this option -> 'newsignals=on' has anything to do with the problem?
14:23:19  <petern> insulfrog, okay, then i don't know anything more. best off asking ttdpatch people
14:24:11  <insulfrog> is there a seperate IRC channel for ttdpatch or just post the question in the forums?
14:24:45  <petern> there's #tycoon but it's not very often on topic

14:36:52  <SmatZ> can you use open() instead?

14:41:22  <Alberth> but you have to move the write pointer to the end yourself :)

14:43:00  <Alberth> not here. Unfortunately I have no copy of K&R here :(
14:43:02  <TrueBrain> ah, the return value in that case is always NULL ;)
14:43:37  <TrueBrain> k, fixed that ... but no appending possible
14:43:45  <TrueBrain> you can only write within the segment that is already there
14:44:01  <Alberth> fseek to end, and write (usually)
14:44:49  <TrueBrain> doesn't help :)
14:44:56  <TrueBrain> (as that was already there)
14:45:27  <TrueBrain> ftell(), fwrite(), ftell()
14:45:34  <TrueBrain> first and last ftell give same value
14:45:35  <TrueBrain> ;)
14:46:08  <Alberth> I really need K&R :)  ok, "rw+b" works here
14:46:18  <TrueBrain> that indeed does
14:46:20  <TrueBrain> not "rwb"
14:46:27  <TrueBrain> so you didn't really tested it before you told me it works ;)
14:46:55  <Alberth> I tested whether you could write in the file ;)
14:48:12  <TrueBrain> k, tnx, appears to work :)
14:48:15  <TrueBrain> silly fopen :(
14:48:21  <SmatZ> "rwb" as well as "rw+b" has undefined behaviour
14:48:32  <TrueBrain> SmatZ: it indeed is far from POSIX ;)
14:49:51  <insulfrog> hmm, I'm not sure what I've done but the problem I had is now fixed :)
14:49:53  <petern> i find it amusing that it accepts those parameters as an array of chars instead of bit flags...

15:05:36  <TrueBrain> good to know
15:05:41  <TrueBrain> last night was not a random mistake :)
15:06:11  <goodger> sorry, what part of that is wrong?
15:06:32  <goodger> I just applied the basic algebra I learned aged eleven
15:06:43  <TrueBrain> nuff said
15:07:19  <goodger> ¬.¬
15:07:24  <goodger> I'm just not going to talk in here any more
15:07:34  <TrueBrain> that might be better for your ego, yes
15:07:58  <SmatZ> 1 unit = 1000N / 256 = 0.256 N ... so 1 N = 1 unit / 0.256
15:08:01  <petern> goodger, google

15:08:41  <SmatZ> shame :-x
15:09:56  <petern> SmatZ: yeah but 0.256Y is not the same as Y/0.256
15:10:40  <thingwath> Y/0.256 is something like 4Y, I hope :o)
15:10:51  <TrueBrain> SmatZ: I am glad you relased you were caluclating N, not 'unit' ;)
15:11:28  <petern> thingwath...
15:11:35  <petern> the figure 3.90625 was just above
15:11:35  <Rubidium> goodger: you wanted to calculate YX = 1000X/256 -> Y = 1000/256 -> Y = 3.90...
15:12:04  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: there is no fun in showing his fundumantal flaw :(
15:12:07  <qball> h ah a ha
15:13:27  <TrueBrain> I am just considering the amount of fun answers you can give, applying goodger's math
15:13:38  <TrueBrain> 2Y = 1000X/256 ... so 0.128Y
15:13:49  <qball> life is a bitch aint it
15:13:51  <TrueBrain> I think I can come up with any amount of answer, which still holds :)
15:15:26  <TrueBrain> I wonder what he would have said when the question was:
15:15:30  <TrueBrain> kN/0.5
15:15:39  <TrueBrain> would that have given '5' as answer?
15:15:43  <Rubidium> like km/3600s = 3.6m/s
15:16:18  <Rubidium> hmm... actually
15:16:30  <Rubidium> ... like km/3600s = 3.6ms
15:16:42  <goodger> sorry, I don't follow how that's wrong. divide by 2 on both sides to get Y = 1000X/128, then divide 1000 by 128 to get Y = 7.8125X, then divide both sides by 7.8125 to get X = Y/7.8125 = Y * 1/7.8125 = 0.128Y
15:17:28  <TrueBrain> goodger: one useful tip: in no system dividing something by X gives as answer 0.X ...
15:17:37  <TrueBrain> (just a thumbrule)
15:17:50  <goodger> er, I didn't divide by X
15:17:56  <goodger> are you reading the same thing as I type?
15:18:03  <TrueBrain> I doubt you ever read the question
15:18:05  <goodger> quarplibrarblem
15:18:09  <TrueBrain> well ... that sure explains a few things :)
15:18:55  <goodger> TrueBrain: you said that 2Y = 1000X/256 resolving to 0.128Y was wrong. I went through it very thoroughly and I can't find any error in my algebra
15:19:04  <goodger> would you care to point out the specific error in my algebra?
15:19:18  <Rubidium> goodger: the major problem is that you AGAIN are failing to properly read and understand the question
15:19:19  <TrueBrain> I never said your statement was wrong
15:19:28  <TrueBrain> I just said your statement was fundamantally flawed
15:19:42  <Rubidium> the specific error is the text->math conversion which is fundamentally flawed
15:19:49  <TrueBrain> and pointed out that in your math-world, any amount of answers would hold
15:20:10  <goodger> yes, I reread the _original_ question, in which I reversedly-converted kilonewtons to newtons by dividing by 1000
15:20:35  <goodger> and then you supplied an example of a maths problem and an answer that was supposed to be totally ludicrous based on my logic
15:20:40  <goodger> but my answer was correct
15:20:57  <TrueBrain> I am sure that in some subset of the world you are correct
15:20:59  <goodger> or rather, that answer
15:21:02  <TrueBrain> just it wasn't any answer petern was asking for :)
15:21:08  <Rubidium> you want to know how many N one kN/256 is. To calculate you do NOT use Y = 1000N/256, but you use YN = 1000N/256 (as N is on both sides of the equation, or not... as it's just a "type name")
15:21:17  <goodger> yes, in the subset of the world that you supplied as being absolutely patently incorrect, I was correct
15:21:45  <Rubidium> so your Y = 1000X/256 should've been Y = 1000/256 (or YX = 1000X/256)
15:21:48  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: nah, in his world N holds a true value which can be redused to primes :)
15:21:54  <petern> :o
15:22:20  <TrueBrain> I think Newton would die if he hadn't already, by reading this :)
15:22:21  <TrueBrain> haha :)
15:22:28  <goodger> I am opposed to being supplied with examples of foolishly incorrect maths that I might produce that are, in fact, correct
15:22:47  <TrueBrain> nobody debated your math; just the origin of your math
15:22:54  <TrueBrain> hence the: fundamentally flawed, part :)
15:23:02  <goodger> and Rubidium: the original problem was to find the value of X, namely the number of newtons, given Y which was the number of kilonewtons multiplied by 256
15:23:22  <goodger> to solve that problem, an X is required in the equation
15:23:39  <Rubidium> goodger: that's where you're wrong
15:23:49  <TrueBrain> '/' and '*' are indeed both multiplications :)
15:24:17  <goodger> sorry.. what?
15:24:24  <petern> the full equation is XN = YkN/256
15:24:26  <TrueBrain> yeah, that was what I was asking myself :)
15:24:35  <goodger> in the version of mathematics I was taught, / is division
15:24:46  <petern> XN = Y*1000N/256 -> X = Y*1000/256
15:25:02  <TrueBrain> so again we have 4 people who agree on something ... and one person not agree'ing ... how nice is that :)
15:25:20  <Rubidium> DEJA VU
15:25:30  <petern> that's not fair

16:02:28  <petern> horrible hack, indeed
16:02:52  <yorick> invisible tunnels
16:03:10  <Wolf01> warp tunnels
16:03:14  <petern> and yet another case of a patch doing more than one thing at a time
16:04:05  <Wolf01> agreed

16:07:28  <Aali> so how does that patch work anyway? I haven't tried it
16:07:36  <petern> uglily i bet
16:07:55  <Wolf01> it allows you to build stargates in your map
16:07:55  <yorick> "The philosophy behind it is that I see tunnels as depots."
16:07:56  <yorick> :D
16:08:15  <yorick> using ctrl, it allows you to skip one exit and go to the other one
16:08:20  <Wolf01> or depots as tunnels
16:08:34  <yorick> I like to see depots as tunnels, not the other way aroud :)
16:08:38  <yorick> around*
16:08:56  <Aali> so, basically, trains go in on one end and come out the other, possibly out of order?
16:08:57  <yorick> they can't even crash inside a tunnel
16:09:03  <yorick> yes
16:09:03  <TrueBrain> so I ordered pizza ...... hmm ... /me hungry :)

16:12:31  <TrueBrain> pizza for everyone!
16:12:31  <Aali> maybe its not such a bad idea after all
16:12:33  <TrueBrain> order one yourself :)
16:12:51  <Aali> but you should of course keep trains in order and not allow more trains than will fit in the tunnel
16:14:02  <Aali> and the whole separate exit/entrance teleport thing has to go
16:15:44  <yorick> the patch is only activated with the crossing tunnels cheat

18:05:27  <Zuu> What do you do, and what issues do you get?
18:05:48  <Clinically_Insane> I tried installing via sudo apt-get openttd
18:05:59  <Clinically_Insane> and it says about the files and thats it

18:06:22  <mrfrenzy> Clinically_Insane: easiest is to just put the data files in /usr/share/games/openttd/data
18:06:23  <Clinically_Insane> should explain I'm new to linux, only been using it for a day now
18:06:32  <mrfrenzy> that directory shoiuld be created automatically when you install the game
18:06:37  <Clinically_Insane> ok/i'll open that
18:07:02  <glx> you need sudo to change this dir
18:07:04  <Monkeyman1> glx, when putting the png into the tar should I add it sprites/trg1r/*.png
18:09:42  <Clinically_Insane> http://pastebin.com/d29533992
18:10:08  <gynter> wtf
18:10:19  <gynter> i can't find grf nfo wiki docs anymore :S
18:11:06  <glx> wiki.ttdpatch.net
18:11:18  <Clinically_Insane> ive got a openttd file in /usr/share/games, but notm a directory
18:11:20  <gynter> uhu
18:11:34  <gynter> great, why did I think that i saw it in openttd wiki...
18:11:50  <Zuu> Clinically_Insane: Just checked with my lenny (debian) box and it also uses 0.6.2-R1 in apt. If you intend to play multiplayer I suggest you install 0.6.3 instead.
18:12:15  <gynter> hmh. Long Vechiles 4 replaces some trams, thats not good
18:12:42  <Clinically_Insane> apt-get remove then download 0.6.3 and install with package manager??
18:13:02  <Zuu> remove openttd with apt-get.
18:13:23  <Zuu> If there is a .deb for 0.6.3 you can use it.
18:13:37  <gynter> why you need a deb?
18:13:45  <Rubidium> Zuu: there's one on the openttd website
18:14:09  <gynter> hmh odd, i have 0.6.3-1 repos
18:14:14  <Rubidium> or use the one from debian sid
18:15:01  <Zuu> Yep, saw there is one deb for etch and one for lenny.
18:15:11  <Monkeyman1> what program can I use to make tar files?
18:15:12  <Clinically_Insane> downloading and installing 0.6.3
18:15:19  <Zuu> Monkeyman1: tar
18:15:32  <Clinically_Insane> For its operation, OpenTTD needs the data files from the original Transport Tycoon Deluxe game.
18:15:32  <Clinically_Insane> See the /usr/share/doc/openttd/README.Debian file for more details about the needed files and their location.
18:15:35  <Clinically_Insane> again
18:15:55  <glx> yes and it's ok
18:16:00  <Zuu> Yep, and you have placed the files there?
18:16:11  <Clinically_Insane> not yet as theres no folder to put them in
18:16:16  <Zuu> Then all you should do is to execute openttd
18:16:32  <glx> just put them in ~/.openttd/data
18:16:42  <Monkeyman1> Zuu, what do you mean? thats the name of the program?
18:16:46  <Clinically_Insane> do i need to create a folder in /usr/share/games/
18:17:07  <glx> Clinically_Insane: <+glx> just put them in ~/.openttd/data
18:17:08  <Zuu> Unless you have many users ~/.openttd/data works even better I would say.
18:17:37  <Zuu> As you have write permission to put downloaded extra grfs there if you want.
18:17:47  <Clinically_Insane> theres only 3-4 users on this pc
18:17:52  <Clinically_Insane> that said
18:17:56  <Clinically_Insane> i've just found the folder
18:18:05  <Clinically_Insane> copy/pasting the extra files now
18:18:41  <gynter> Monkeyman1, yes
18:18:43  <Zuu> Monkeyman1: on linux there is a program that is named  "tar" you can find tar.exe in some unix-kits for windows. Or you can check 7zip. 7zip at least unzips .tar.gz files.
18:19:18  <gynter> Monkeyman1, http://lantech.geekvenue.net/chucktips/jason/chuck/994016279/index_html
18:19:33  <Clinically_Insane> its not letting me paste the files in
18:19:58  <glx> you need to do it with sudo
18:20:17  <Clinically_Insane> whats the command for that
18:20:32  <Zuu> put sudo before your desired comand
18:20:40  <glx> sudo cp trg*.grf /usr/...
18:20:49  <Zuu> or just use the command su to become super-user.
18:21:04  <Monkeyman1> I am on mac os x or on vista...  and I cant find a program that encodes to tar
18:21:25  <glx> on mac I'm quite sure there is tar
18:21:41  <glx> on vista you can use 7-zip
18:21:46  <Monkeyman1> extracting yes but encoding I cant find it
18:21:55  <Zuu> Monkeyman1: tar is an archive format, not something openttd has invented for image encoding.
18:22:12  <glx> tar is a very old format :)

18:50:41  <gynter> is it possible to define a value with action6 which will be the first ID of vechile and other IDs will be incremented from the action6 value?
18:51:35  <gynter> if I define action6 value as 44 then first is 44, second 45, third 46 etc, but if i define action6 as 43, then first is 43, second 44, third 45 etc
18:52:19  <petern> uh
18:52:28  <petern> TrueBrain: 15 seconds isn't very long
18:54:24  <petern> gynter, why bother?
18:54:35  <gynter> for replacement
18:55:06  <petern> well
18:55:21  <petern> if you code the nfo properly, vehicle IDs will automatically be sequential
18:55:59  <gynter> eq, If I have a grf, which replaces roadv 44 to 4A and another one which replaces 44 to 4A, but I want this another one to replace 4B to 51
18:56:11  <TrueBrain> petern: show-off ;)
18:56:27  <gynter> so I could define the other start ID as grf action6 value
18:57:02  <petern> what you want to do is:
18:57:09  <petern> if (other grf active)
18:57:27  <petern> set param blah to id-offset
18:57:49  <petern> then use action 6 to apply that offset to all your action 0/3/4s where needed
18:58:16  <gynter> exactly
19:00:04  <petern> so..?
19:00:14  <gynter> i don't know how to do this :)
19:00:21  <gynter> otherwise I wouldn't ask :P
19:00:31  <petern> hmm, but that is how you do it...

19:03:27  <gynter> why do I need action7 for?
19:04:03  <Eddi|zuHause> gynter: action 7 to check if the other grf is active
19:04:09  <Eddi|zuHause> action D to set the variable
19:04:12  <gynter> yes ofc
19:04:15  <gynter> thanks

19:28:57  <Eddi|zuHause> how do you determine if a point is inside the region?
19:29:07  <TrueBrain> that is kind of my question ;)
19:29:08  <TrueBrain> haha :)
19:29:51  <Eddi|zuHause> so what you really want is a constructive variant of the axiom of choice :p
19:30:04  <TrueBrain> euh .. what? :p
19:30:49  <Eddi|zuHause> the axiom of choice says: "there is a function which maps every set to a member of that set"
19:30:55  <TrueBrain> the image I just gave, it contains points of the border. I just made those points lines, but  now I need a method to find any point inside the region, so I can flood the inside of the region; that way I can cut out everything that is not part of what I want :)
19:31:22  <Eddi|zuHause> the problem with that axiom is its non-constructiveness, it does not say how to find such a function
19:31:23  <TrueBrain> a human can always tell what is inside a region ... in math, it is much more tricky :(
19:31:55  <TrueBrain> 2 years ago I used this method to just do what you said, well .. sort of anyway
19:32:07  <TrueBrain> but it turns out the database I use has  A LOT of regions where this points is on the wrong side :p
19:32:09  <Eddi|zuHause> which is why some mathematicians decide to deny this axiom at all

19:33:42  <Alberth> *is
19:34:07  <Eddi|zuHause> so, you have a polygon, which is given by a list of vertices, now you want to find a point that is inside the polygon
19:34:37  <Eddi|zuHause> and any point will do?
19:34:58  <TrueBrain> Alberth: that method fails too, in some weird shapes (which sadly enough is also in this set) .. but I remember I did try to make that to work .. I just failed somewhere :p haha :)
19:35:20  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: any point, yes, as long as it isn't at the border (and is a valid point in my lowest-resolution set)
19:36:01  <TrueBrain> the time it takes to find this point is also not important; it is a one-time job

19:37:31  <Eddi|zuHause> well, if you think of real countries, there are occasionally ones that are not continguous

19:48:05  <Alberth> Yexo, region is not always convex
19:48:17  <joachim> is to point to find any point inside, or determine whether any point is inside?
19:48:27  <joachim> first to = the
19:48:30  <TrueBrain> to find _any_ (1) point inside
19:48:47  <TrueBrain> or, for all I care: _any_ (1) point outside
19:48:57  <joachim> ah, ok
19:49:07  <TrueBrain> the latter only makes it slightly more complex :)

19:52:33  <TrueBrain> I really flood the regions .. just virtual ;)
19:52:58  <glx> Alberth: uint+uint -> int
19:53:05  <Yexo> TrueBrain: that depends, as it can work with any arbitrary line (the angledoesn't matter) you can just preprocess all border lines and chose a line that is not paralel to any existing line
19:53:51  <joachim> there are not that many regions though, not much work to just set some coords manually
19:54:07  <TrueBrain> joachim: my dataset defines around 10000 regions
19:54:10  <TrueBrain> you feel up to that task?
19:54:16  <joachim> i said nothing
19:54:18  <joachim> ;)
19:54:38  <Eddi|zuHause> TrueBrain: can't you just pick a point next to the border, flood-fill, and check if that flood hits the map edge?
19:55:01  <joachim> it will hit all edges even if it's outside
19:55:06  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: hmm ... 'sandbox' the image and flood it at any random point ..
19:55:08  <TrueBrain> now there is an idea ..
19:55:27  <TrueBrain> if the map-edge is reached, invert the flood
19:55:34  <TrueBrain> pick any point fromt he flooded area
19:55:38  <TrueBrain> and it should always be a point inside :)
19:55:51  <joachim> oh
19:56:03  <joachim> misread
19:56:25  <TrueBrain> not really fast ... but for sure simplistic :)
19:57:26  <Eddi|zuHause> well, other option would be to triangulate the entire polygon, and then check for each resulting triangle, if it contains an inner point
19:57:38  <TrueBrain> lol
19:58:01  <TrueBrain> I remember clearly there was an area in germany that 'leaked'

19:58:06  <TrueBrain> let me see if I can still find that point ..
19:58:37  <Eddi|zuHause> but that's the fault of your dataset, not of the algorithm...
19:58:42  <TrueBrain> yup
19:59:05  <Yexo> after thinking a bit about it, I don't see why my idea fails if you just ignore all border lines paralel to the chosen line
19:59:13  <Eddi|zuHause> and can't you manually "close" that dataset by appending the start point at the end again?

19:59:20  <TrueBrain> Yexo: detecting that tiny fact is _very_ hard
19:59:30  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: yeah, but there was somethins epcial here ..
19:59:32  <TrueBrain> let me look up the image ..
19:59:42  <TrueBrain> (I try to reach in my memory of 2 years back, so it is a bit fuzzy ;))
19:59:50  <ctibor> Is there someone who plans to implement tekky's bidirectional tracks or is it such a huge task that nobody is willing to make it? (myself "no coder" :-(( )
19:59:51  <Yexo> TrueBrain: what? detecting whether two lines are paralel is simple
19:59:57  <TrueBrain> Yexo: in general, yes
20:00:00  <TrueBrain> with coordinates: no
20:00:04  <TrueBrain> 'resolution' is a big factor here
20:00:26  <TrueBrain> your suggested method returned a point on a line at certain resolutions
20:00:27  <Alberth> glx: due to the uint16 vars, apparently. Tnx
20:00:28  <TrueBrain> no matter what I tried ;)
20:00:55  <Eddi|zuHause> ctibor: the main problem there is to create an efficient reservation storage and lookup, because the track reservations cannot be stored in the map anymore
20:01:31  <Eddi|zuHause> the same tile might be reserved by multiple vehicles
20:01:32  <ctibor> Eddi|zuHause: Yes I read about it, that it is suggested to meke some graphs to store information needed
20:01:39  <Eddi|zuHause> for different levels of reservation
20:02:04  <Yexo> TrueBrain: I think I miss some vital information on your problem here. Are all lines a integer coordinates or so?
20:02:10  <TrueBrain> hmm .. the code for germany is not DE, nor GR ... hmm ..
20:02:19  <TrueBrain> Yexo: no, floats of course

20:15:59  <joachim> sure
20:16:44  <TrueBrain> last week someone said to me, while I was browsing through some python code of mine: is that PHP? It looks like PHP?
20:16:56  <TrueBrain> I don't see how any person who knows a tiny bit about program languages, can confuse PHP for Python ..
20:17:32  <Eddi|zuHause> well, it looks as much like PHP as it looks like any other language
20:17:40  * Rubidium would confuse sparc assembly with arm assembly too
20:17:51  <Alberth> ROFL!

20:18:22  <TrueBrain> they all contain letters ...
20:18:34  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, but an "outsider" sees words like "class", or operators like "==", and then almost every language looks the same

22:26:58  <AmanoJaku> Stupid connection. Seems to enjoy cutting me off over and over.
22:27:05  <TrueBrain> yup .. takes for ever to get right ;)
22:27:12  <joachim> :)
22:30:09  <joachim> is the daylength patched being considered for trunk?

22:32:42  <WhiteRhino> Finally.
22:33:31  <joachim> petern: why not?
22:35:03  <Rubidium> because it breaks the whole economy
22:35:34  <joachim> i guess it might
22:36:45  <joachim> but maybe the problems should be made dynamic so to fit the daylength patch or other modifications
22:37:12  <petern> a dynamic problem is a problem solved?
22:37:25  <Eddi|zuHause> the daylength patch startet out as a hack and did not evolve much beyond that
22:37:26  <joachim> the problem areas, sorry
22:37:41  <TrueBrain> hmm .. my sandbox idea sometimes requires ..
22:37:42  <joachim> i know it is alot of work
22:37:47  <TrueBrain> @calc 20000 * 20000 / 1024 / 1024

22:37:51  <TrueBrain> 381 MiB of RAM :p
22:37:52  <Eddi|zuHause> it was never clearly defined, which parts of the game should be considered day based
22:38:11  <joachim> is that a daylenght patch problem or a game problem?
22:38:13  <joachim> ;)
22:38:19  <petern> TrueBrain, just use bytes that can store 2^9 or more!
22:38:32  <Eddi|zuHause> imho, the patch should become even bigger, by making more scales of the game configurable
22:38:35  <TrueBrain> :) I should ask googder ...
22:38:40  <joachim> Eddi|zuHause: agree!
22:38:51  <petern> why not continue, surely if you can fit 2^9 into 2^8 then you can fit 2^12 into 2^11 into 2^10 into 2^9...
22:39:20  <Eddi|zuHause> petern: some people actually tried to patent that :p
22:39:47  <joachim> the game time was designed for 256x256 maps...
22:39:48  <petern> oh crap
22:40:32  <joachim> decades will pass while creating or redesigning networks now
22:40:35  <Eddi|zuHause> take a compression algorithm that reduces the size of each string by 1 bit
22:40:50  <TrueBrain> Informatic Theorem ;)
22:40:56  <TrueBrain> (or how ever you write that in english)
22:41:02  <Eddi|zuHause> and apply that recursively :p
22:41:03  <Rubidium> joachim: it takes decades in real life too
22:41:38  <joachim> it does, but a decade in the game is missing 1/7 of the game
22:41:53  <joachim> in single player at least
22:42:02  <gynter> uhm, why server doesn't read [pathces] on cli with -c flag?
22:42:33  <joachim> in real life running a rail company takes thousands of people, Rubidium
22:42:42  <joachim> that's not what we want, is it? ;)
22:43:12  <Eddi|zuHause> you can use AIs for that :p

22:43:21  <haXs> Hello!
22:43:31  <TrueBrain> hello haXs
22:43:41  <haXs> quick question, is anyone able to take a screenshot from the console of a linux server?
22:43:51  <haXs> iv found that i no longer can
22:44:19  <joachim> there are probably millions on google images
22:44:27  <haXs> im useing 0.6.3 compiled from source
22:44:33  <joachim> :)
22:44:47  <haXs> sorry i mean i cant take them from my server, useing the screenshot command or even via rcon
22:45:04  <Alberth> haXs: ksnapshot? gimp?
22:45:11  <Eddi|zuHause> haXs: that is because the dedicated server does not draw anything
22:45:15  <TrueBrain> it was never meant to work, to make screenshots from a dedicated server
22:45:52  <haXs> oh
22:45:58  <haXs> it always used to in older versions
22:46:09  <TrueBrain> we know :)
22:46:36  <glx> it was a "bug"
22:46:37  <TrueBrain> I always considered that a bug ;)
22:46:41  <Eddi|zuHause> haXs: that was "fixed" ;)
22:46:42  *** NukeBuster [~NukeBuste@80.101.115.82] has quit [Quit: http://www.interplay.com/]
22:46:55  <TrueBrain> haXs: the dedicated server is much faster when it draws as little as possible :)
22:46:59  <Alberth> gynter: -c flag is for giving an alternative place for an entire openttd.cfg file, not for just for patches (or pathces)
22:47:17  <gynter> i have full cfg, but [pathces] isn't read
22:47:27  <gynter> difficulty and patches are default values
22:47:33  <gynter> bur [network] is correct
22:47:36  <gynter> but *
22:47:40  <Rubidium> gynter: that's because OpenTTD doesn't read the [pathces] section
22:47:41  <TrueBrain> because it should read [patches] ;)
22:47:43  <Rubidium> and it never had
22:48:05  <gynter> [patches]*
22:48:07  <Rubidium> haXs: try changing the blitter
22:48:09  <haXs> thanks for clearing that up for me anway
22:48:35  <gynter> thou if I use same config to creater server without -D it works fine
22:48:50  <gynter> nevermind
22:48:52  <gynter> solved
22:48:53  <gynter> shoot me
22:49:08  <TrueBrain> if you really want to ...

22:49:42  <Alberth> gynter: you'll have to wait until yorick is back

22:52:29  *** dageek is now known as DaGeek
22:52:44  <DaGeek> hey TrueBrain & Zuu
22:53:25  <DaGeek> just after some info about ripping some game stats out of a running game
22:54:14  <Zuu> From PHP?
22:54:31  <Zuu> Then OpenTTDLib might be what you are looking for
22:54:43  <DaGeek> OpenTTDlibs ?
22:54:50  <DaGeek> soundz interesting...
22:56:35  <DaGeek> i have managed to get some details out of a running game using AutoPilot, I added a few Modz to AP and have got some .sh/.tcl scripts to pull out some info
22:57:03  <DaGeek> the info i am after is the 'Detailed Performance Rating' that can been seen in-game..
22:57:23  <Zuu> OpenTTDLib gets mostly what is available on server page on www.openttd.org
22:57:27  <DaGeek> but i would like to get this data out of the game so that i can create a 'high score' system..
22:57:55  <DaGeek> I have got all that data already via tcl & php
22:57:58  *** roboboy [3aad2910@webchat.mibbit.com] has quit [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client]
22:58:05  <DaGeek> and also php using raw UDP Sockets...
22:58:23  <Zuu> OpenTTDLib is a library that does just that.
22:58:35  <Zuu> (in PHP)
22:59:11  <DaGeek> then like i say, I can already do what OpenTTDLib does....
22:59:53  <DaGeek> i just want to pull the Preformance rating stuff as well, since this is the only way i can see to 'score' the users of my server..
22:59:56  <Zuu> For performance rating you probably has to make a custom built server that either adds a dedicated server command to get the rating or using some other interface.
23:00:37  <DaGeek> can the dedicated server pull this info and display it on the console of hte server already ?

23:01:17  <Zuu> I don't think so, but haven't checked myself.
23:01:23  <DaGeek> i just need to know how i can access the info that is being shown tot he end user
23:01:41  <Zuu> I think you either have to find someone willing to share code for what you need or code it yourself.
23:01:58  <Zuu> Kurt is a multiplayer server that has something similar.
23:02:27  <DaGeek> really ?
23:02:45  <DaGeek> Kurt isnt online @ the mo...
23:03:01  <DaGeek> do you happen to know a www page for him that i might be able to look @ ?
23:03:03  <Zuu> Okay, and kurt himself is unreachable?
23:03:25  <Zuu> no, I don't know how to contact him.
23:03:32  <DaGeek> i have done some Google'in and have not found any scorein system for OTTD...
23:03:54  <Zuu> Don't even know what his user name on tt-forums is, but try search for users with "kurt" in the name.

23:25:42  <Alberth> the images are simple 11x11 circular sprites and should present no problem. However I have literally no idea how or where to tell the program that I have two new sprites for use in the gui drawing. A seperate GRF file won't work (it is not guaranteed to be always there), are there other options or should I fall back to drawing a lot of lines at the proper place (which I do now)?
23:26:14  <Alberth> ie like the [<] and [>] buttons
23:28:00  <Rubidium> Alberth: checkout extra/ottd_grf
23:28:55  <Rubidium> then add the two sprites to split/openttdgui.pcx and to split/openttdgui.nfo (also increment the count in the action 5 by 2)

23:30:34  <Rubidium> in trunk open table/sprites.h, increment OPENTTD_SPRITE_COUNT by 2 and add two enums for both sprites with SPR_OPENTTD_BASE + index_of_sprite (147 and 148 in this case)
23:31:18  <Rubidium> and in the ottd_grf you can generate openttd[dw].grf using make and copy those to trunk/bin/data
23:33:12  <CIA-9> OpenTTD: rubidium * r14819 /trunk/src/ (order_gui.cpp timetable_gui.cpp vehicle_gui.cpp): -Change: make details and order menu stickyable, like the timetable window. Also let the detail/order/timetable window close eachther, like the detail and order windows already did, when not stickied.
23:33:41  <Rubidium> then for the patch attach the new pcx and the diff of ottd_grf (as the pcx won't be in the diff)
