01:31:32  <Zmapper> Is there a master ban list anywhere?
01:31:56  <Zmapper> Cause we have a person who the admin has banned 2 of his IP adresses and he still keeps coming back.

09:26:34  <ChoHag_> Are cars actually usable as a taxi service?
09:27:51  <planetmaker> depends on the definition of 'usable' and 'taxi service'
09:27:54  <planetmaker> and 'car'

09:32:07  <ChoHag_> Usable as in passengers get in and out, taxi as in they pay and car as in ... car.
09:32:38  <planetmaker> generally cars will have too low capacity to be of any use within ttd world
09:32:45  <Chris_Booth> planetmaker: you could make a grf of a taxi, make lots of annoying 1 way streets and dead end, then give you taxi no orders this would mean that the taxi would always be lost
09:32:45  <ChoHag_> I need to build something before the LAs get pissed off with me, but the village is too small for buses.
09:32:48  <planetmaker> Usable as eye candy: yes
09:33:23  <Chris_Booth> ChoHag_: then you need trees
09:33:26  <planetmaker> ChoHag_: why would the size of the vehicle be bothersome
09:33:30  <planetmaker> ?
09:33:41  <Chris_Booth> delete all the trees around the village and replant them
09:33:43  <ChoHag_> Well I don't want to lose money.
09:33:49  <Chris_Booth> and presto the town will love you
09:33:58  <ChoHag_> Chris_Booth: Oh no, they're happy, I just want them to stay that way.
09:34:16  <ChoHag_> I'm trying to connect passengers in all the towns I pass railways by/through.
09:34:31  <ChoHag_> ie. all the towns in which the LAs notice me.
09:34:48  <ChoHag_> That way I'm hoping my transport network will grow in a moderately realistic fashion.
09:34:55  <Chris_Booth> then make a bus route, and transfer the passengers to the main station
09:35:20  <Chris_Booth> realism? what is this realism?
09:35:37  <ChoHag_> They don't want to send any passengers to places I want to go.
09:35:41  <Chris_Booth> sounds strange to me
09:35:49  <ChoHag_> Game => Fun => Vaguely realistic.
09:36:05  <planetmaker> playing yacd?
09:36:08  <ChoHag_> Yes.
09:36:38  <planetmaker> then just connect a bus terminal to your train station and add two stops to other destinations within the town and have a single bus circle
09:37:00  <Chris_Booth> yacd is cargodist?
09:37:01  <ChoHag_> OK well yes that'll happen eventually.
09:37:04  <Terkhen> no
09:37:14  <ChoHag_> But in the meantime, will passengers use cars?
09:37:20  <Chris_Booth> no
09:37:26  <Chris_Booth> the game doesn't have cars
09:37:30  <Chris_Booth> unless you make them
09:37:39  <ChoHag_> Will passengers use cars if I have a cars GRF?
09:37:47  *** ChoHag_ is now known as ChoHag
09:37:49  <Terkhen> there is a generic cars newgrf, passengers will use them but they are not profitable
09:37:56  <Terkhen> well, they are, but not much
09:38:14  <ChoHag> That's not a problem. I have coal and oil if I want profitable.
09:38:23  <Chris_Booth> what is yacd Terkhen?
09:38:31  <ChoHag> Very few towns are currently big enough to make passengers profitable.
09:38:40  <Chris_Booth> then use coal
09:38:46  <Chris_Booth> or grow towns
09:38:48  <planetmaker> ChoHag: passengers are profitable, if you ship them to the station
09:38:52  <Terkhen> Chris_Booth: check the forum thread
09:38:55  <planetmaker> they'll want to go to big towns for sure ;-)
09:39:22  <Chris_Booth> got a link Terkhen? i am lazy and can't be bothered to search tt-forum
09:39:37  <Terkhen> me too
09:39:39  <ChoHag> They'll become more profitable in the 90s or 2000s.
09:40:03  <ChoHag> In the meantime, keep the LAs happy, make towns grow with basic passenger services, ship raw materials to make $big_bucks.
09:40:24  <Terkhen> yes, I use cars mostly for keeping towns happy in small towns
09:40:27  <planetmaker> ChoHag: in my yacd game passengers were what got me going
09:40:52  <planetmaker> making more money than industries
09:41:06  <planetmaker> but I started in two big towns and build a railway line in between
09:41:12  <planetmaker> then the other towns followed
09:41:18  <ChoHag> Oh well I'll run an experiment in this village and see how good my real life car is in the game.
09:41:21  <planetmaker> as usual small villages got service last ;-)

10:58:13  <loveringau65465> yeah...
10:59:21  <ChoHag> The economy is going to hell.
10:59:42  <ChoHag> Does it have trends and is there a console command to view/set it?
10:59:48  <planetmaker> nope
11:00:06  <planetmaker> but there's a smooth and a 'normal' economy setting

11:01:24  <ChoHag> What does the steady/fluctuating difficulty setting do then?
11:01:54  <planetmaker> the size of an individual change
11:02:04  <planetmaker> 10% change vs. 50% change or so
11:03:01  <ChoHag> Well it needs to go up dammit! Only 4 industries have production > 100.

14:55:40  <planetmaker> no money?
14:55:49  <ChoHag> Neither is a problem.
14:56:01  <ChoHag> Even after I send the vehicle for servicing myself it won't replace.
14:56:09  <ZirconiumX> have you turned auto-renew on in advanced settings?
14:56:13  <ChoHag> Breakdowns are off, if that matters.
14:56:25  <ChoHag> It's on. It's been toggled to try resetting it.
14:56:39  <ZirconiumX> how old re the vehicles
14:57:51  <ChoHag> Some are ancient nw.
14:58:06  <ChoHag> 17 years of 12, 18.
14:58:10  <ChoHag> Some buses are 40 years old.
14:58:27  <ChoHag> As breakdowns are off it's not been urgent.
14:58:56  <planetmaker> Did you enable autorenew for all vehicles?
14:59:04  <ChoHag> Can it be picky?
14:59:43  <planetmaker> you can ask it to only renew a group
14:59:50  <ChoHag> Where?
14:59:53  <planetmaker> depends where you ask
15:00:22  <planetmaker> which group window: general list. or single groups

15:01:07  <ChoHag> s/if/for/
15:01:25  <ChoHag> No I tell a lie. That's replace in each individual group, not renew.
15:02:27  <Eddi|zuHause> renew is a global option in advanced settings
15:02:42  <ChoHag> Yes. And it's on.
15:02:52  <Eddi|zuHause> so?
15:03:14  <ChoHag> Well it's not working.
15:04:06  <Eddi|zuHause> you have money? your trains find the depot? you waited at least one full service interval? you excluded groups from autoreplace?
15:04:58  <ChoHag> Yes, yes, yes, no.
15:05:19  <Eddi|zuHause> does it work when you manually send the train to depot?
15:05:23  <ChoHag> No.
15:05:40  <Eddi|zuHause> that's weird...
15:05:57  <Eddi|zuHause> not that i actually tried autorenew lately...

17:04:49  <andythenorth> the same 40m long ferry might carry 20 pax or 1,000 pax

18:14:28  <George> Eddi|zuHause: You wrote just my attempts!
18:15:01  <George> while I was thinking about 22 deg
18:15:17  <George> why do you think 15 deg is better/
18:15:57  <George> But definitly I need you patch to provide it
18:17:10  <Eddi|zuHause> George: in most situations, you have the vehicle in front turned, and in the next step, the vehicle itself turned and the next vehicle is still old direction. with 22.5° graphics, both situations need same graphics. it's difficult to prevent the vehicle from "jumping" at that point
18:17:30  <Eddi|zuHause> with 15°, you have different graphics for each
18:20:31  <George> Hm. in my model I did not expect that problem. I have to think about it
18:21:21  <George> So, could you compile a win32 exe with this diff an the last nighty/stable?
18:22:42  <Eddi|zuHause> i can't compile for windows.
18:23:35  <George> And how did you do http://devs.openttd.org/~terkhen/fs_2521/?
18:24:50  <George> Did Terkhen compiled it?
18:25:04  <Terkhen> yes, I was asking which version do you need
18:25:43  <George> Terkhen: Could you compile the patch with the latest nighty/stable (what is easier for you)
18:26:11  <Terkhen> either is easy, but I can't do it until tomorrow
18:26:25  <George> Ok, I'll wait till you can
18:27:31  <George> In case nighty is as easy as stable using the latest nighty fits better

18:29:39  <George> Thank you!
18:31:02  <andythenorth> is there any point in the FISH passenger boats refitting to all cargos?
18:31:11  <andythenorth> should I limit them to express cargos or something?
18:32:23  <andythenorth> the thinking was that ships can pretty much carry anything
18:32:24  <planetmaker> Well... Personally I like refittability - even when there are good arguments for your suggestion
18:32:54  <andythenorth> then again...box cars and flat trucks can carry pretty much anything, but we don't generally allow them to 'refit all'
18:33:17  <planetmaker> don't we?
18:33:23  <planetmaker> I do ;-)
18:33:33  <planetmaker> But I adjust cargo capacity to encourage other wagons
18:33:44  <planetmaker> which are dedicated to the other cargos
18:34:09  <planetmaker> and obviously I disallow passengers for box cars. Illegal immigration is not my business ;-)
18:35:42  <planetmaker> hm... every index of the colour palette is valid :-)

20:39:58  <SmatZ> KDE 4.6 changed the order in which windows are switched when you use mouse wheel on the task bar

21:42:16  <Yexo> playing with YACD is fun, but I find it totally impossible to transport all local passengers
21:42:55  <Yexo> I'm not using any newgrfs, so only the default buses are usable
21:44:29  <Eddi|zuHause> yep
21:44:45  <Eddi|zuHause> passenger generation is way too high
21:45:17  <Eddi|zuHause> (this was also true for any previous destination patch)
21:45:18  <Vikthor> I find it hard even with trams for large cities
21:45:42  <Eddi|zuHause> trams are ok, if you separate them with timetables properly
21:45:55  <Eddi|zuHause> i find inter-city trains much harder
21:46:01  <Yexo> seperating them without any autoseperation patch is too much work
21:46:18  <Eddi|zuHause> unless you build like a 6-line main track, with trains every 2 tiles
21:46:19  <Vikthor> Yes thats another problem, too much micromanagement
21:47:13  <Vikthor> to set up all lines to smallest villages and maintain them well serviced and profitable
21:48:13  <Yexo> making profit isn't hard at all, at least with passengers
21:48:22  <Yexo> haven't tried cargo yet, that's probably more difficult
21:48:36  *** DDR [~DDR@d99-199-10-67.bchsia.telus.net] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
21:49:11  <Eddi|zuHause> FIRS cargo is pretty difficult, as initial production is fairly low in the first place, and then it's split up between several target industries
21:49:14  <Yexo> in every town I've connected so far I'm only transporting around 25% of all possible passengers, and my network is already overflowing
21:49:46  <Eddi|zuHause> airplanes are hopeless :p
21:50:03  <Chris_Booth> Airplane sucked in CargoDist as well
21:50:09  <Chris_Booth> since they where so fast
21:50:16  <Yexo> the capacity of airplanes is too low
21:50:20  <Chris_Booth> but couldn't handle the capacity
21:50:22  <Yexo> compared to trains
21:50:31  <Chris_Booth> even with A380s and big airports
21:50:45  <Eddi|zuHause> the airports block too much, planes spend most time circling
21:51:44  <Vikthor> Eddi|zuHause: I am playing with FIRS and I have failed to produce anything like working eceonomy with all the supplies and stuff needed, I make most money from pax and mail and some fish and food
21:52:38  <Eddi|zuHause> Vikthor: ignore the supplies at first, get the primaries connected to the secondaries
21:53:05  <Eddi|zuHause> then set up some sort of circular route with a train carrying supplies
21:54:08  <Eddi|zuHause> i mostly put a supplies wagon to the primary cargo trains right from the start, then i can send the roundtrip-train also to the secondary station and it will finally pick up the links
21:55:02  <Eddi|zuHause> so if i have like a livestock train, then i put a farm supplies wagon to it. it goes to the stockyard, drops off the livestock, picks up a share of the farm supplies, and goes back
21:55:02  <Vikthor> well, I probably selected too large map, without supplies primary production is too low and when split to several dests across map, I can't make enough profit on that(too far for RV, too low production for train)
21:55:41  <Yexo> adding a single supplies wagon to primary cargo trains is a good idea
21:55:56  <Eddi|zuHause> the ratio between primaries and secondaries is probably not right
21:58:49  <Chris_Booth> is YACD the big new thing then?
21:59:01  <Eddi|zuHause> i played a small map, 128x256, because with the prospect of no savegame compatibility, i wanted to get through the game quickly

22:00:12  <Chris_Booth> that has always annoyed me, why if I merge my branch into a new trunk will it not open an old brached saved?
22:00:32  <Chris_Booth>  since the old trunk saves can be opened
22:00:38  <Chris_Booth> but not old branches
22:00:47  <Eddi|zuHause> Chris_Booth: because the savegame version is linear
22:01:10  <Eddi|zuHause> you cannot merge two history lines, you must choose one. either old branch or old trunk
22:01:40  <Chris_Booth> so old trunk + new branch would work?
22:02:05  <Eddi|zuHause> yes. if the patcher makes the effort. which they usually don't.
22:03:44  <Eddi|zuHause> the MiniIN had a system in place where it could load at least the last few branch versions and all trunk versions

22:04:20  <Eddi|zuHause> which is taken away the attention from developing the patch

22:06:03  <Eddi|zuHause> decompile the grf and remove them?
