00:24:45  <Belugas> i hate it too, WhiteRhino. But in my case, i was building rails with Thomas's wooden set with my son when i got connected...
00:24:48  <Belugas> to the office ^_^
00:26:55  <Alberth> Rubidium: tnx for all the hints on what to do. I still don't understand the sprite count, though (assuming the arrow in sprite 0 is used). Tomorrow I'll try to use the new sprites in the program and see what happens (no doubt the offsets are still wrong).
00:26:58  <Alberth> night all
00:28:40  <curosurf> anyone, know if 0.7.0 will feature more client network options, like favourite, and better sorting?
00:29:23  <curosurf> a real pain finding the right network game sometimes
00:29:37  <Alberth> curosurf: nobody knows until 0.7.0 hits the streets
00:29:51  <curosurf> I live in hope!
00:30:14  <curosurf> and I'll watch the commit list
00:31:15  <petern> you could use a nightly

00:31:23  <petern> then you'd see what it does have
00:31:57  <Alberth> are there network servers that run nightlies?
00:32:05  <curosurf> Mmmmn, true.  I like the surprise, better option would be to write patch myself
00:32:11  <curosurf> yes, there are a few servers
00:32:38  <Alberth> curosurf: yes, writing a few patches may increase the odds :)

00:45:10  <WhiteRhino> Curse you, Dialup. And all you stand for.
00:48:05  * Rubidium wonders where dialup is still common
00:49:29  <enra> outback australia mainly from experience ( work for an isp)
00:50:04  <curosurf> Middle America ?
00:50:28  <curosurf> parts of rural UK, northern Scotland
00:50:41  <enra> ok - quite a few then lol
00:51:11  <curosurf> some parts of India
00:51:14  <curosurf> :-)
00:51:15  <curosurf> lol

00:52:34  *** Yeggstry is now known as Yeggzzz
00:52:51  <Eddi|zuHause> apparently there are large parts in rural germany which still do not have DSL

00:53:39  <Wolf01> there are large towns in Italy which don't have DSL
00:54:03  <Rubidium> Italy also has large towns without garbage collection
00:54:23  <Wolf01> Africa too
00:54:25  <Eddi|zuHause> well, almost all major cities in east germany got brand new fibre lines after 1990
00:54:39  <Eddi|zuHause> which then turned out to be very expensive to upgrade for dsl

00:58:19  <curosurf> Dunno, I'm happy with adsl
00:58:39  <curosurf> runs OpenTTD fine :-)
00:59:04  <Rubidium> that those guys at the northern end of Harvard Bridge haven't come up with a solution if it's that bad
01:00:02  <WhiteRhino> Oddly, Dialup works OpenTTD pretty well. Occasional skipping but mostly around autosave time. Though occasionally stuff just freezes and it takes awhile for the game to realize the network disconnected me.

02:04:35  <joachim> when intercontinental airports hit in 2002, and i need to upgrade my airport hubs and their immediate connecting railways, i'm suddenly in 2020 and the game is over

02:10:26  <joachim> ?
02:10:56  <joachim> then send less trains or make more exits :)
02:11:16  <WhiteRhino> I did have three trains going to a two-wide station.. *reroutes*

02:12:37  <joachim> that shouldn't be a problem
02:13:23  <joachim> or do you mean the trains were longer than the station length?
02:13:38  <WhiteRhino> I didn't think it would either given the distance.. probably had to do with my having all three on full load. Been a long time since I played this game.
02:14:41  *** vraa_ [~vraa@h205.74.20.98.dynamic.ip.windstream.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
02:15:27  <joachim> could you post a screenshot of your station?
02:16:34  <joachim> three trains on a two track station should never be a problem
02:16:54  <joachim> unless you have a one-track exit/entry
02:18:29  <WhiteRhino> It's one station with a two-track with one-way signals leaving from it.. but another set of two-track and one-way signals kind of connects to the side of the.... damn it.
02:18:45  <WhiteRhino> Every time I start enjoying playing again, the network bumps me. Maybe I should stick to one-player. x.x
02:19:33  <joachim> you said it was a long time since you played, when was that?
02:20:10  <WhiteRhino> Err... *thinks* I'm 25 now and I first started playing my freshman year of highschool.
02:20:55  <WhiteRhino> I mean, it's like riding a bike for the most part. I probably just bottlenecked things with a misplaced signal or something.
02:21:10  <joachim> signals have changed
02:21:25  <joachim> did you use pre-signals?
02:21:50  <WhiteRhino> *cough* Not entirely sure what those are. I know of signals and one-way signals..
02:22:03  <joachim> ok.. :)
02:22:50  <WhiteRhino> Reconnecting to the map now. Hope things didn't bottleneck again while I was gone this time.
02:22:52  <joachim> there are really many new features that you should read up on
02:23:56  <joachim> especially signalling for making efficient rail networks
02:36:01  <Eddi|zuHause> i was never really fond of the whole "read up on the standard solutions" idea...

02:40:40  <WhiteRhino> Wow. That's the most I've made with planes like.. ever.
02:44:17  <joachim> if all i knew  about was the two-way signal and the one-way signal from ttd, i'd prefer to read up on the basics and technicalities before exploring or having explained the possibilites
02:44:36  <joachim> of the new signals :)

03:14:29  <JJAx> Hello?
03:14:34  <WhiteRhino> Heyo.
03:14:45  <JJAx> I speak english ONLY.
03:15:08  <JJAx> Please respond.
03:15:19  <WhiteRhino> Apparently a lot of people want to go from the UK to Saudi Arabia.
03:15:36  <JJAx> Interesting.
03:15:56  <JJAx> Do you like the Aviators Aircraft set?
03:15:59  <WhiteRhino> Got six Darwin 300s going to and from each airport and none of them leave without being full.
03:16:29  <JJAx> The Aviators Aircraft set features the 500 seater A380.
03:16:55  <JJAx> And you can configure the A300 to become a Beluga.
03:16:56  <WhiteRhino> I usually keep away from airplanes and ships like they were covered in plague; I generally make suck for cash.
03:17:39  <JJAx> Do you like airplanes in OTTD?
03:17:44  <WhiteRhino> My fleet of six Coleman Counts were making 16k pounds a trip. These new ones make 80k a trip.
03:18:03  <JJAx> You should get the aviators aircraft set,
03:18:05  <WhiteRhino> I do so far, though I'm only running standard TTD with a fresh OTTD download.
03:18:41  <JJAx> it has the A300 and Beluga, A380, and the concorde with an animated nose.
03:18:49  <JJAx> It's also free.
03:19:33  <JJAx> Coleman Counts are actually Vickers Viscounts.

03:27:49  <WhiteRhino> Geeze. Meanwhile this one of my six planes has made 487,000 pounds this year alone.
03:31:06  <joachim> how does that work with cargodest - does the individual vehicle profit mean anything?

03:33:25  <WhiteRhino> Cargodest?
03:33:48  <Eddi|zuHause> joachim: the vehicle profit is essentially the same as transfer credit
03:34:07  <Eddi|zuHause> the company only gets real income on final delivery
03:34:20  <WhiteRhino> I've got a question: for a fleet of coal cars, which would be better for the stations, full ones or drivethroughs?
03:35:11  <Eddi|zuHause> drive through stops have some problems with multistop
03:35:28  <Eddi|zuHause> i.e. combining several roadstops to one station
03:35:30  <WhiteRhino> Hm. I think I'll stick to normal depots, then, since there's ten of them going.
03:36:53  <joachim> Eddi|zuHause: but they add up to way more than the actual profits, so the transfer credits are, eh.. transferred?

04:15:17  <Eddi|zuHause> how did you get a road vehicle stuck?
04:16:54  <WhiteRhino> Well, I'm on one of the Mega maps.
04:17:06  <WhiteRhino> This one's made to resemble europe, russia, etc.
04:17:37  <WhiteRhino> Highways were made to go around the map, one side one way, the other the other way. The guy who made the map tried to make little turnaround areas.. but this one is screwed up.
04:18:22  <WhiteRhino> Three roads all one-way to a single intersection. The roads are owned by his player, as is the road along the flat of the T-intersection. I can't build roads to get the car out and it can't get out because of the one-ways.
04:19:32  <Eddi|zuHause> sounds like fun :p
04:19:56  <Eddi|zuHause> the only option is to talk to the owner

04:20:17  <WhiteRhino> Gah! Train crashhh...
04:20:49  <Eddi|zuHause> but you can stop the vehicle, and set the "check orders" option to "except stopped"
04:22:21  <LordNokon> im playing on the hugh maps, the trainsignals, isnt there a easier way to say one track goes to unload, and one to reload.
04:23:03  <LordNokon> i no you can drag and drop, but you stil have to change each of the signals by hand
04:23:09  <WhiteRhino> I just had a traincrash 'cus I screwed up trying to make a two-track "u-turn" sort of deal.
04:23:32  <LordNokon> ive got like 1000 tracks going a very very long distance
04:23:42  <LordNokon> any suggestions to this problem of mine??
04:24:04  <Eddi|zuHause> you need to change the first signal to the correct way
04:24:07  <Eddi|zuHause> and then drag
04:24:16  <Eddi|zuHause> then it will copy that signal
04:24:35  <LordNokon> oh ok thank you thank you thank you

04:26:47  <WhiteRhino> No, it's the server's player, clanmega.warlink.eu
04:27:07  <WhiteRhino> And his company is worth 3 billion.
04:27:13  <joachim> ah, ok
04:27:28  <WhiteRhino> I think buying out the server's company could get me banned anyway. ;)

07:55:24  <Alberth> De_Ghosty: read the topic
07:56:54  <Alberth> WhiteRhino: I tend to get errors due to rivers with the mars graphics. Do you have them too?
08:00:42  <WhiteRhino> I didn't see any errors for the short time I played. Seems that a train you get in 1950 isn't so good at dragging nine cars of toffee around.
08:01:41  <WhiteRhino> I'm actually trying out a sub-arctic 64x64 map. Working coal, oil and livestock/grain back and forth across a single small town.
08:02:08  <Alberth> WhiteRhino: you'd see the errors in the newgrf window (a red warning triangle).
08:02:17  <WhiteRhino> Ah, no, didn't see any of them.
08:02:20  <Alberth> as for power, add an extra locomotive
08:02:55  <Alberth> and no long slopes :)
08:03:04  <WhiteRhino> Didn't think about that. And while trying to make a very quick alteration to track, my two trains collided and exploded, so I gave up on the 64x2000 map, but I plan to revisit that kind of game.
08:05:04  <Alberth> how does a map of 64 play? I never tried that (but I play very little, I am mostly digging around the in the source code)
08:05:25  <WhiteRhino> It's freakin' tiny. Anything other than cars would be a waste of money.
08:05:36  <WhiteRhino> And even then, I've got ten cars driving around on the map and that's probably too many.
08:05:37  <Alberth> (like now, I first have to build a openTTD binary before I can play :) )
08:06:04  <WhiteRhino> One depot handles recieving grain, livestock and oil, while exporting food and coal. There's long backups.
08:06:33  <WhiteRhino> The good part of 64x64 maps is that once you handle all the possible movement of items, you automatically get any subsidies. =D
08:06:47  <Alberth> depot? (I thought they were for servicing only)
08:07:05  <WhiteRhino> Station thingy. I've got a central depot in the middle of the town.
08:07:24  <Alberth> I normally set subsidies to the lowest possible 1.5 or so, and never bother about them
08:07:51  <Alberth> you know you can have several road stations? as long as they are placed next to each other
08:07:57  <WhiteRhino> Usually I don't either since I can't stand making passenger lines. I did well in that multiplayer game, though, since the towns were big and close together.
08:08:45  <WhiteRhino> Ooh, that opens things up nicely. Thanks, man.
08:09:18  <WhiteRhino> With the subsidy, I'm making 1,700 per truck on wheat, though.
08:11:26  <WhiteRhino> ...A new company was launched.
08:12:03  <Alberth> With mountains I do this: http://e.imagehost.org/0279/mountain.png  At the left up the mountain, at the right down
08:13:30  <WhiteRhino> Geeze. There's two more companies on this tiny island now.. and both of them are using monorails.

08:21:59  <De_Ghosty> x?
08:22:05  <Alberth> yep
08:22:59  <Alberth> and there is a 'transparency settings' window available from the tool bar to set your preferences
08:23:28  <WhiteRhino> Startin' to hate the sound of those monorails going by..
08:24:41  <Alberth> I have no sound from OpenTTD since my last 're-install'. It does have some advantages... :)
08:25:18  <WhiteRhino> Given that lots of older games I've been playing don't seem to recongize my sound card, having TTD with sounds is awesome. =P For now. Back in the day I never much dealt with monorails and maglevs.
08:29:13  <WhiteRhino> Meanwhile the terrible movie that is Dr. Dolittle 3 playing in the background is what's truly grating on my nerves.
08:31:05  <WhiteRhino> Hmm. Wonder if I could change all these cars to monorails.. maybe run them all on a bit circular track around the island like a roundabout.
08:33:26  <Alberth> You pretty soon need a double track, so trains can pass a broken-down train, instead of getting stuck behind it
08:33:41  <Alberth> (unless you play with break-downs disabled)
08:34:12  <WhiteRhino> Gah! I moved a station a little and the second computer raced in with her own crap.
08:34:56  <WhiteRhino> Ohhh, this is hopeless. =P Mostly did it as a joke anyway. I'm off to bed, see you folks tomorrow.

09:25:28  <yorick> good morning Alberth
09:26:34  <Alberth> I hope it will be, modifying my patch sequence is driving me mad :(
09:26:39  <yorick> ?
09:28:06  <yorick> you need to fix the settings gui strings truncated and make the tabs go inline too :)
09:30:10  <Alberth> Yesterday a part of the sequence got committed o trunk, and the remaining part needed some changes to make it trunk-ready. So I am making changes in a patch sequence of (currently) 15 patches, moving back and forth. Luckily, hg has mq support
09:31:39  <Alberth> I have a patch for the "fix the settings gui strings truncated" problem, it is called 'CodeRefactor: Windowing code moving towards OO', waiting in FS#1905. Unfortunately, the current patch is too big, and I don't know how to break it up
09:32:34  <yorick> heh, I don't think they like moving the enire windowing code
09:32:38  <yorick> changing*
09:33:16  <Alberth> The move to OO Window objects was largely due to my patches.
09:33:44  <Alberth> Now I need to modify the widgets (ie they need to know how large they become, and re-size themselves).
09:34:39  *** tokai [~tokai@p54B8059C.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #openttd
09:34:42  *** mode/#openttd [+v tokai] by ChanServ
09:35:11  <Alberth> I have a solution for that, but you need a hierarchy of widgets instead of a flat array. That is a very fundamental change.
09:38:18  <Alberth> I see no better solution that to introduce widgets classes, and instantiate a tree of these things, but the class hierarchy code is big, and connecting with the existing way of handling widgets is difficult to impossible as far as i can see
09:38:27  <Alberth> s/that/than/
09:39:20  <yorick> the copy paste patch currently needs 9 bits for storing terrain and 4 bytes for buildings :/
09:40:19  <yorick> (terrain and buildings are separate arrays)
09:40:46  <Alberth> you don't copy from map to map directly?
09:41:24  <yorick> that'd be nice when saving and loading
09:42:08  <Alberth> you'd lose ^X, but that is not too bad imho
09:42:47  <yorick> how about moving, but demolishing first?
09:43:12  <Alberth> you paste destructively
09:43:35  <yorick> yes, but building is in multiple levels
09:44:37  <yorick> first terrain, then railway, then signals
09:45:13  <Alberth> but you always have the source tile don't you? (unless you paste at exactly the same place, but that is trivial to solve)
09:45:59  <yorick> and terraforming?
09:46:08  <yorick> operations change neighbouring tiles
09:47:25  <Alberth> are you not further away from the source tiles then?
09:47:40  <yorick> not always
09:48:10  <yorick> and saveload is needed, yes :)
09:50:20  <Alberth> you could forbid such pastes. If there is enough money, you can always work around that limitation by first pasting it elsewhere.
09:51:37  <Alberth> or maybe the user can do some terraforming him selves beforehand
09:52:05  <yorick> too much limitations :p
09:52:44  <Alberth> to some extent, yeah. On the other hand, it may give you points to break the patch in smaller pieces

12:19:19  <TrueBrain> morning
12:19:50  <TrueBrain> Yexo: an other problem with 'rays' I had: it is very hard if you only have the points .. you need to make the lines on a 'sandbox' image or what ever to make it fast ... and some regions are WAY too big for that :p
12:21:22  <TrueBrain> (and intersection calculation on 500+ points is terrible slow :p)
12:26:12  <matias> hmm.. how to load and unload passengers at the same time?
12:26:20  <matias> bus
12:26:34  <mrfrenzy> just visit the station, no additional load, unload or transfer settings should be enabled
12:26:57  <matias> ok
12:27:35  <Swallow> Bug report: The following order list causes the game to freeze as soon as it tries to reserve a path through waypoint X:

12:47:37  <Yexo> that needs some special casing for horizontal lines, but otherwise it should be fine

12:52:31  <Yexo> outside what line?
12:52:53  <TrueBrain> when you test 2 lines on intersection, it always returns a point
12:52:58  <TrueBrain> (unless they are parallel)
12:53:03  <TrueBrain> that point needs to be ON both lines

13:10:37  <Yexo> you can easily change the line to whatever you want, but this seemed easiest

13:11:44  <TrueBrain> yes
13:11:48  <TrueBrain> for your method, that might just work

13:13:48  <Yexo> yes
13:14:12  <Yexo> but I don't think there is a valid way to catch that. What about three rings inside eachother?
13:14:27  <TrueBrain> exactly
13:14:32  <TrueBrain> so ... I need to check each region manually

14:51:02  <Alberth> (but that is just me, different people play with a different style here)
14:51:12  <matias> and if you should use train/road?
14:51:15  <Alberth> look at cargo payment rates

16:35:24  <mrfrenzy> matias: look at the cargo payment graph
16:35:39  <matias> in practise in your games..?
16:35:40  <mrfrenzy> the profit is dependant on what cargo is delivered, how fast and over how many squares
16:36:50  <matias> should i make a train with min number of wagons or a huge one and wait on the station?
16:37:31  <Eddi|zuHause> usually, you time the wagons in a way that when one train arrives, the other one just gets full
16:37:50  <joachim> is there a grf or other way to adjust running costs?
16:37:58  <joachim> in general
16:38:06  <Eddi|zuHause> yes
16:38:08  <joachim> i thought it came with the daylength patch
16:38:13  <Eddi|zuHause> basecost.grf or something
16:38:35  <matias> ok, so putting 3 wagons is ok in my case
16:39:04  <joachim> thanks, i'll try that
16:39:10  <petern> it's a balancing skill you will need to learn
16:40:18  <joachim> last time i played with the daylength patch i think there was a cost multiplier option
16:40:20  <matias> how much do you usually earn for the first routes? mine is about £2300
16:46:07  <Eddi|zuHause> i never pay attention to that...
16:46:14  <Eddi|zuHause> as long as it is positive
16:46:37  <Eddi|zuHause> you will eventually get to a point where it does not matter anymore

19:28:34  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> ah, zuu isnt here today
19:28:49  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> anyone tried installing the ttdpatch onto openttd
19:29:04  <TrueBrain> sounds rather silly
19:29:16  <Rubidium> many tried, noone succeeded (or will succeed)
19:29:21  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> well its supposed to give the extra signal features
19:29:34  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> as all I've got is 1 type of signa;
19:29:41  <TrueBrain> haha, someone has told you a nice lie :)
19:29:53  <Rubidium> PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn: OpenTTD != TTD
19:30:22  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> what am I missing then#
19:30:43  <Rubidium> that TTDPatch is for TTD, not for OpenTTD
19:31:11  <Yexo> as all I've got is 1 type of signa; <- in that case you're not running OpenTTD
19:31:28  <Rubidium> or he hasn't read the manual yet
19:31:38  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> not read the manual.
19:31:51  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> just came across a lot on the web about various types on signals
19:32:08  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> and therefore wondered if there was some way of getting them on my version
19:32:16  <Eddi|zuHause2> PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn: what does your supposed openttd say about its version?
19:32:36  <Yexo> after pressing the signal button, click on an existing signal to change it to another type
19:32:58  <Yexo> and read http://wiki.openttd.org/wiki/index.php/Building_signals for more info
19:32:59  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> its open ttd 0.6.3
19:34:08  <Eddi|zuHause2> PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn: that does not need a patch to have several signal types
19:34:20  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> ok
19:34:33  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> had seen stuff about clicking the signal tile,
19:34:41  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> but had assumed that was in the build manager
19:35:06  <Yexo> what is "the build manager"?
19:35:57  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> I assume thats the best way to describe the box that comes up when you click on the rail simble to build stuff
19:36:21  <PsYcHoTiC_MaDmAn> or what the wiki here has down as Railway construction toolbar

22:39:40  <Rubidium> and it'll undoubtedly cause a long series of bugs when people actually start testing the feature and reporting bugs
22:39:41  <Yexo> well, as I said the current patch adds mp_void tiles and as such that if isn't there anymore, but SmatZ asked why that was, and I wasn't sure about your reason :)
22:40:05  <Yexo> and it'll undoubtedly cause a long series of bugs <- the patch of that if statement?
22:40:50  <Rubidium> both
22:41:20  <Rubidium> or rather together it will
22:41:38  <Yexo> does that mean you don't want to include the patch (without that hack) or that is just needs lots of testing beforehand?
22:42:08  <petern> everything needs testing
22:42:13  <Rubidium> the first fear can be removed if someone does a proper profiling, which is quite hard

22:47:37  <petern> give it another couple of months then :)
22:47:59  <Wolf01> 0.6.0?
22:48:16  <Wolf01> ah an old commit
22:48:49  <Rubidium> petern: AFAIK no big things had been committed to trunk since January
22:49:21  <Rubidium> and the fact that it happened "only" late March was because nobody dared to do it when I was on vacation (for 2 months)
22:49:41  <petern> hehe
22:50:00  <Rubidium> hmm... the betas started mid November
22:50:12  <Yexo> branching now would mean that both cargodest and noai wouldn't make it
22:50:46  <Yexo> Rubidium: speaking of noai, any plans to resume work on nail?

23:17:13  <Yexo> <TrueBrain> NAIL is compatible <- not completely, I guess a lot of the existing AIs will fail on small points (like missing a ';')
23:17:29  <TrueBrain> true :)
23:17:33  <TrueBrain> but that is a minor problem :)
23:18:27  <SmatZ> not our problem :)

23:33:00  <petern> whatever happened to libgpmi? :p
23:33:34  <TrueBrain> alive and kicking
23:33:54  <TrueBrain> just not in OpenTTD
23:33:56  <TrueBrain> Tron made sure of that :)
23:35:36  <Sacro> God, what happened to him
23:36:09  <Rubidium> he's changing SimuTrans to have his coding style
23:36:17  <petern> good
23:36:23  <Sacro> hehe
23:36:25  <TrueBrain> Vehicle* v
23:36:27  <TrueBrain> ... :s
23:36:31  <petern> well apart from that
23:36:32  <Sacro> he's off patrolling someone else's project
23:36:39  <petern> simutrans style was horrible when i looked :p
23:36:42  <TrueBrain> it still gives me the creeps, just thinking about that :)
23:36:48  <TrueBrain> I never seen the code of simutrans ..
23:38:06  <petern> heh, r3313... 3 years ago... wow
23:38:12  <Eddi|zuHause> > grep "Vehicle\*" src/* | wc -l
23:38:14  <Eddi|zuHause> 66
23:38:18  <Rubidium> svn://tron.something.I.cannot.remember/
23:38:27  <Rubidium> ^ that's where simutrans' code is
23:38:34  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: it used to be a lot more :)
23:39:18  *** Brianetta [~brian@client-82-14-72-109.glfd.adsl.virgin.net] has quit [Quit: TschÌß]
23:39:21  <Rubidium> and quite a few of them are casts anyways
23:39:40  <Eddi|zuHause> static int CDECL VehicleLengthSorter(const Vehicle* const *a, const Vehicle* const *b) <- i don't even know what is const there
23:39:56  <Rubidium> *a is
23:40:11  <Rubidium> hmm or actually **a is
23:40:16  <petern> both are

23:45:22  <TrueBrain> I always found 'const' usage silly and confusing :p
23:47:41  <SmatZ> I think it could even be "const Vehicle *const *const a", because 'a' isn't changed :)
23:47:48  * SmatZ agrees with TrueBrain
23:48:09  <TrueBrain> hahaha, over-constantified :p
23:48:41  <petern> somebody had a habit a while ago of consting by-value parameters
23:48:44  <petern> bjarni i think :p
23:49:00  <TrueBrain> sounds useful ;)
23:49:23  <TrueBrain> before you know it, you change a by-value :)
23:49:26  <Rubidium> technically a compiler might do interesting optimisations of that
23:50:30  <SmatZ> but "restrict" is much better keyword for enabling optimisations :)
23:50:48  <SmatZ> it says "no other pointer points to this data" (or so)
23:51:02  <SmatZ> but it is only in C99, not C++ :(
23:51:17  <Rubidium> oh... so it won't work anyways (for MSVC)
23:54:52  *** vraa [~vraa@h168.182.213.151.dynamic.ip.windstream.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving...]
23:55:28  <matias> hmm.. does it matter how close you are to the industry? produced 126t, transported 78%
23:55:29  <petern> lol
23:55:40  <petern> monorail is not possible
23:55:44  <petern> tee hee
23:56:04  <Eddi|zuHause> matias: no, only the station rating matters
23:56:07  <Aali> you saw that thread too?
23:56:10  <petern> yes
23:56:11  <Aali> its quite funny
23:56:13  <petern> well, jus tnow
23:56:19  <petern> "i'm an engineer!"
23:56:23  <petern> haha
23:56:41  <matias> ok, so when the ratio is 78%, you can transport 78%?
23:56:52  <Eddi|zuHause> well, it's the internet, everybody is some kind of expert on everything
23:57:13  <Eddi|zuHause> matias: yes, the average station rating over the month
23:57:28  <matias> interesting
23:57:50  <Eddi|zuHause> with some weird mix of ratings if there are two stations
