00:00:20  <Supercheese> I guess they can do that by checking if the sub-height is not a multiple of eight... but then they'd have to check for ascending, descending, direction...
00:00:22  <Supercheese> hmm
00:00:34  <Supercheese> I wonder what checks that would take
00:00:54  <Supercheese> abuse temp storage?
00:01:18  <Eddi|zuHause> use articulated vehicles, and you have a height difference
00:01:43  <Supercheese> ah, yes
00:01:58  <Eddi|zuHause> or check the sub-X/X-position
00:02:11  <Eddi|zuHause> (you need to know driving side for that)
00:02:26  <Supercheese> that mightn't work for trains
00:02:56  <Supercheese> but anyway, I'm not particularly interested in sloped vehicles, though the thought is nice
00:03:22  <Eddi|zuHause> but you should also know the travel direction
00:03:41  <Supercheese> was more going for a check for (snowline_height - vehicle_height) to decide sprites for snowy/nonsnowy
00:03:49  <Eddi|zuHause> and there might also be ascending/descending flags somewhere
00:03:59  <Eddi|zuHause> lots of ways this can work
00:04:05  <Eddi|zuHause> i'm not sure how they did it
00:04:07  <Supercheese> true enough
00:04:38  <Eddi|zuHause> i know how i would do it, but i won't do it, multiple angles is already bad enough :p
00:05:23  <Supercheese> CETS already has enormous sprite counts
00:05:40  <Supercheese> adding slopes would just make things far worse
00:05:41  <Eddi|zuHause> i currently use the height difference of var61 only to back out of the slicing magic
00:05:54  <Eddi|zuHause> because it won't work in non-flat situations
00:07:59  <Eddi|zuHause> it might be 4 or 12 additional views (+50%), until diagonal slopes are introduced...
00:08:10  <Supercheese> hah, diagonal slopes
00:08:22  <Supercheese> those'll happen when diagonal tunnels and bridges do, right ;) ?
00:08:44  <Eddi|zuHause> but i don't think it'll be worth it, because it currently isn't that bad
00:09:04  <Supercheese> at 1x zoom things are fine
00:09:33  <Supercheese> at 4x zoom, well, many things look off but the funicularity of vehicles looks strange as well
00:09:43  <Supercheese> if "funicularity" is even a word
00:10:35  <Supercheese> 4x zoom... I still haven't worked on extra zoom sprites
00:10:41  <Supercheese> TMWFTLB
00:12:44  <Supercheese> does CETS do extra zoom sprites?
00:13:52  <Eddi|zuHause> i'd like to have x2 sprites, but x4 is probably overkill
00:14:07  <Eddi|zuHause> the current artists refused to do those, though
00:14:53  <Supercheese> I wonder if doing only 4x and having OTTD rescale the 2x would look ok
00:15:01  <Supercheese> rescale for 2x*

07:17:38  <V453000> dont forget to update as it is in 0.4.8 or later
07:17:50  <V453000> or newer I should say I guess .. you get teh point :)
07:17:58  <Flygon> Either way, I'd like to get my current game done
07:18:01  <Flygon> Which may take nuts
07:18:12  <Flygon> Basically, build a European network until I run out of Vehicles :B
07:18:23  <Flygon> I'm dreading britian...
07:18:34  <Flygon> I have a half-built network there that I got bored with, so I went to Finland
07:18:45  <Flygon> And now I have Finns saying that my network is awesome
07:18:53  <Flygon> ...I talk to some really bored Finns
07:19:03  <Flygon> But not bored enough to drink @_@
07:19:08  <V453000> I cant say I had 5000 trains yet
07:19:14  <Flygon> Me neither
07:19:17  <Flygon> Just...
07:19:23  <Flygon> 312 atm
07:19:31  <Flygon> Over 2200 Trams/Trucks, though
07:19:35  <V453000> you can safely assume you cannot run out of vehicles then :D
07:19:49  <V453000> trucks are boring, 5000 on 256x256 is easy :s
07:20:10  <Flygon> This is a 2048*2048 map
07:20:19  <V453000> mygod
07:20:28  <Flygon> Only reason I have trucks, is because I actually ran out of room to build train lines
07:20:45  <Flygon> And I had passenger trains that need full through speed... and UKRS2 freight is slow
07:20:46  <V453000> you ran out of room on 2k x 2k? :D achievement
07:20:57  <Flygon> I ran out of room in Finland, and parts of Sweden
07:21:12  <V453000> :D oh a "real map" :D
07:21:17  <Flygon> If this was Rusisa, I would build more rail lines than tentacles in... you get my point
07:22:56  <Flygon> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2651992/Art/Other/finnishrailways1980network.png I really need to rework some of these lines with better train services...
07:23:36  <Flygon> I doubt I'll ever cover the whole of Europe with a rail network
07:23:48  <Flygon> That'd need a 16 player MP game and a lot of interested people :p
07:26:05  <Flygon> And I've been putting off other games D:
07:27:01  <Alberth> WET rails doesn't look very good with those bridges
07:27:53  <Rubidium> aren't wet rails just a poor excuse for having underperforming ships (loading capacity/station tile ratio)?
07:28:39  <Alberth> perhaps it's an effort to get non-colliding ships :)
07:28:40  <Flygon> V453000: Helsinki is absolutely screwed, either way. It's become 1970s Melbourne. Tram congestion. D:
07:29:27  <V453000> newbridges work best I think
07:29:55  <V453000> capacity or performance isnt really a thing, non/colliding and/or actually fun to build ships are more of a concern :)
07:32:36  <Flygon> It actually looks like one of my ships is jousting a giant duck...
07:34:48  <NGC3982> Morning.
07:35:13  <V453000> speaking of ducks ... https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/20419525/SLUGS2.png

09:24:37  <Zacharias> Guten Tag, habe mir OpenTTD 1.3.0 runtergeladen und spielen wollen! jetzt frag ich mich allerdings ob ich zu blöde bin. Ich kann zum einen nur Straßen- und Wasserstraßenbau betreiben. Und zum anderen kann ich keine Bushaltestellen, Bahnhöfe oder Àhnliches bauen um die ersten Grundlagen fÃŒrs weiter Spiel zu legen! kann mir jemand sagen was ich Falsch mache???
09:27:29  <__ln__> Welche Jahr ist es?
09:28:04  <Zacharias> Wie meinst??? Ingame???
09:29:40  <__ln__> Ich weiß doch das outgame-Jahr...
09:30:23  <Zacharias> ich glaube das jahr spielt dabei keine rolle, immer wenn ich ein spiel starte kann ich einfach keine grundlagen schaffen
09:31:03  <Zacharias> sorry, ja klar weist das outgame jahr ^^ lol
09:33:25  <Zacharias> das startjahr lÀsst sich ja Àndern, aber das prob bleibt das selbe! ich fange an, an mir zu zweifeln!

12:58:22  <swissfan91> Is it possible to code rails that show different graphics on the snow transitions?
13:03:05  <planetmaker> afaik no
13:03:23  <planetmaker> you only have snow / no snow info
13:03:55  <planetmaker> though with railtypes that's imho hardly an issue as the base tiles are not part of the railtype sprites, thus show the transition
13:06:49  *** Biolunar [mahdi@blfd-4d0833fa.pool.mediaWays.net] has quit [Quit: My life for Aiur]
13:07:37  <swissfan91> I can't seem to make them show the transition - track placed on the 3/4 snow transition shows full snow under the rail..
13:08:18  <frosch123> yeah, rails geneally have only a snow flag
13:08:30  <planetmaker> I might have remembered that wrongly. If so, should not be a newgrf issue, but an openttd one
13:08:31  <frosch123> actually, all buildings have
13:08:43  <frosch123> only plain tiles have different shades
13:08:59  <frosch123> and house / industry grfs which trick the system
13:09:05  <planetmaker> :-)
13:09:14  <planetmaker> lengthy template I once wrote for that :D
13:09:37  <swissfan91> so this "trick on the system" cannot be replicated for tracks, trees, roads etc?
13:09:40  *** andriod [~andriod@line38-101.adsl.kirov.ru] has joined #openttd
13:09:58  <planetmaker> no
13:10:31  <planetmaker> nor IMHO should it be needed. OpenTTD should draw the transition w/o newgrf intervention there as it easily could
13:10:35  <planetmaker> "easily"
13:11:16  <swissfan91> so how would that happen?

14:29:33  *** Flygon_ is now known as Flygon
14:29:34  <Flygon> What if
14:29:36  <Flygon> Raving
14:29:41  <planetmaker> doubt it, RavingManiac
14:29:41  <Flygon> I use a variable number of tracks?
14:29:52  <Flygon> Based on the need for the capacity of certain sections of track?
14:31:52  <Flygon> In fact
14:32:09  <Flygon> To use single track well, is an art in itself
14:32:12  <planetmaker> RavingManiac, depending on the map - and more so on the network layout - you need more or less. Adopted to the industries distribution, too
14:32:31  <Flygon> I find myself using single track surprisingly often, for instance
14:32:41  <Alberth> just detection of number of tracks is already very difficult
14:32:52  <Flygon> Mostly for passenger branchlines that lack much passenger use, but also get a lot of freight
14:33:03  <Flygon> The justification for the line being the freight, and the passenger being an extension
14:33:13  <Flygon> The trick to this? Crossing loops around the shared track
14:33:58  <planetmaker> RavingManiac, and if you play, for instance, with a goal script, competence certainly can't be measured that easily either.
14:34:04  <Flygon> Therefor, the best track in OpenTTD, is a single track line that is well managed and free flowing
14:34:24  <planetmaker> My networks with e.g. NoCarGoal look distinctly more different - and quick'n dirty than I build w/o a goal script
14:35:57  <Flygon> Four tracks is very wasteful, either way.
14:38:55  <planetmaker> 2x2 is not to bad. if it's 4x2, that's hardly ever needed
14:39:01  <planetmaker> *too
14:40:29  <Rubidium> 2x2 is very useful if you try to make a realistic-ish passenger scenario
14:40:47  <Rubidium> one track for ICs, one track for slow traffic
14:41:09  <Rubidium> although, with enough acceleration and timetabling you could try the shinkansen approach
14:41:10  <Flygon> Oh yes
14:41:16  <Flygon> That's perfectly alright
14:41:27  <Flygon> I normally employ the Shinkansen approach
14:41:40  <Flygon> 2x2 is another one I do use sometimes
14:42:50  <Rubidium> http://rbijker.net/openttd/misc/mine.png <- is that competent? ;)
14:43:58  <Rubidium> maybe there's another measure of competence: the number of tracks built on top of eachother
14:44:20  <Rubidium> that one has at least a place with 3 tracks and an aqueduct
14:44:55  <Flygon> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2651992/Art/Other/finnishrailways1980network.png Is this competent?
14:45:08  <Flygon> I could dump a full screenshot, but I'd run out of RAM :B
14:45:29  <Rubidium> can't tell, how many "tracks" are there on top of eachother in the busiest parts?
14:45:45  <Flygon> I'll have to take an indepth screenie of bits

16:17:15  <V453000> cant help you there :s
16:17:42  <planetmaker> doesn't vehicle_is_reversed do what you need?
16:18:36  <juzza1> http://paste.openttdcoop.org/show/2230/ here is the code
16:18:43  <juzza1> the train will flip, but sprite wont change
16:19:12  <juzza1> and the flipping in depot is somehow glitched, cause the train sprite just jumps? so as if it flips the flipped sprite
16:19:31  <juzza1> and i tested the vehicle_is_reversed, doesnt change if you flip in depot
16:19:57  <V453000> you didnt use the switch block in graphics block ?
16:20:03  <V453000> default: switch_bla
16:20:24  <V453000> default: switch_railmedium9_reversing;
16:20:46  <V453000> not sure if you need to load spritesets before switches they are used in, maybe not
16:21:37  <V453000> I suppose it doesnt pm :s I would guess I tried that when I was attempting to make this feature work
16:21:48  <V453000> what it did or how I do not remember atm though
16:21:59  <V453000> but I think just nothing happened
16:22:21  <V453000> or is vehicle_is_reversed for depot? or is it like the shunting thing UKRS uses?
16:22:27  <juzza1> yeah it doesn't need the default: necessarily, and i tried loading the spritesets first (and also adding default:) but it's still the same, not working properly
16:23:00  <juzza1> vehicle_is_reversed changes (for me) when you use the reverse arrow in the train window
16:23:29  <juzza1> or when you send the train to depot, and it reverses itself (because TRAIN_FLAG_FLIP is active)
16:23:44  <V453000> a stopped, flipped, and depotted vehicle does not change sprites?
16:24:16  <juzza1> no, at least i cant get it to change no matter what i do
16:25:28  <juzza1> correction: might change in the depot, but isn't changed when the train leaves depot, i will try with a sprite from which i can tell for 100% certainty
16:25:49  <V453000> good

17:43:56  <juzza1> so this is what happens: with your method only when flipping in depot is the variable "vehicle is flipped" changed, but if you use "vehicle_is_reversed " provided in NML documentation, that variable changes both when flipping in depot, AND when reversing the train with the reverse direction arrow

18:56:32  <Rubidium> the same reason that every bugfix yields more bugs than it solves

20:01:11  <Supercheese> Hmm, my USB3 port is at the front of my computer...
20:01:17  <Supercheese> but I only have 1
20:01:31  <frosch123> what device do you need it for?
20:02:18  <Supercheese> I have an external enclosure for a hard drive
20:02:18  <planetmaker> for my card reader
20:04:30  <frosch123> i also have an external hdd, but usb2 is just enough for rsync
20:04:35  <frosch123> i do not have that much new data
20:04:57  <frosch123> i do not backup ottd binaries :p
20:06:01  <__ln__> i'd need usb3 for my keyboard
20:06:19  <frosch123> true, it limits by apm
20:07:27  <frosch123> luckily my (likely 15 year old) keyboard is ps/2
20:09:00  <oskari89> Does someone know something about OpenTTD's Scenario editor's heightmap?
20:09:09  <Supercheese> What's the question?
20:09:10  <oskari89> And the way it's processed?
20:09:57  <oskari89> It would be absolutely awesome if one could draw rivers with some colour on heightmap
20:10:18  <frosch123> http://wiki.openttd.org/Terkhen/Scenario_format
20:11:21  <oskari89> Because there is like 10^6 lakes here, nearby, and when i'm trying to do those heightmaps, the lakes are always problematic
20:11:51  <Supercheese> Extended heightmap format is not implemented yet
20:13:14  <oskari89> If you paint them (lakes) with 0 meters on photoshop or so on land which is about 200 meters or so (up from sea level), you'll end up with not-so-nice cliffs near lakes
20:13:38  <oskari89> And the quantity of lakes, them being on different levels...
20:15:35  <Supercheese> Pretty sure you can't have rivers in heightmaps yet in trunk
20:16:20  <oskari89> http://wiki.openttd.org/Terkhen/Scenario_format#Water_layer
20:16:34  <oskari89> "Sea: Only tiles at zero height can be marked as sea. OpenTTD will treat any tiles marked as sea above height zero as rivers. "
20:16:38  <frosch123> if the heightmap has valley for rivers, the river generator is very likely to use them though
20:16:40  <Supercheese> Pretty sure that's not implemented yet
20:16:46  <frosch123> try the corsica heightmap on 2kx2k
20:17:15  <frosch123> and yes, the extended heightmap stuff is not implemented
20:17:32  <oskari89> Yes, but when it's implemented... Can it work that way?
20:17:38  <Supercheese> sure
20:17:41  <oskari89> !!
20:17:49  <oskari89> I'll be waiting for that :)
20:17:54  <Supercheese> we all are :)
20:18:57  <oskari89> Then, one needs to mark all lakes with that water layer... 8)
20:19:11  <oskari89> D'oh
20:20:02  <oskari89> I suppose photoshop has some smart options for that :P
20:21:17  <planetmaker> would then be easy to do that stuff in layered graphics
20:21:28  <planetmaker> any decent pixel editor should offer that
20:21:30  <frosch123> likely you would use layers inside the psd

21:32:43  <V453000> still a map which is accessible by not being massively demanding on hardware is helpful
21:34:41  <Muxy> bah
21:34:52  <V453000> not bah :)
21:35:18  <V453000> in fact people generally learn more on a smaller map because more problems need solving earlier and with less pc stress
21:37:07  <Muxy> but on that game our players were not as cooperative as the should have been
21:37:33  <Muxy> cause no "game master" to animate
21:38:17  <V453000> yeah well, I say that all the time, good server needs an admin who is playing there :)
21:39:05  <Muxy> sure
21:43:02  <V453000> it is easy to make the "game master" after a short while even if the person isnt an admin though :) just needs an active player
21:45:31  <Muxy> in coop game, yes
21:46:03  <V453000> even without cooperating
21:46:27  <Muxy> then it's better to give some extra power
21:46:48  <Muxy> not the whole console access but allow some commands
21:47:27  <V453000> well I dont mean executively, of course such a player is not able to get rid of griefers and such, but he makes the server alive and makes people return back there, obviously the more such players the better
21:48:14  <V453000> obviously that person gets to be an admin sooner or later usually simple to the fact that he is there all the time
21:48:23  <V453000> but it isnt necessary for making a server alive
21:48:32  <Muxy> before admin, we have moderators
21:49:01  <V453000> those are all nice but that does not really make the server
21:49:12  <V453000> every server has an admin, but there are only a few good servers
21:49:43  <V453000> if you have a player who is able to help people, explain things to them ,or just point them at the right direction if he does not know, people will likely return there
21:50:32  <Muxy> sure, but ot needs also some extra power to kick bad players
21:50:58  <Muxy> and to be a good server, need to have some people to animate
21:51:21  <Muxy> this is a 24/7 jpb
