08:42:13  <planetmaker> V453000, I guess you gotta try. Just from the sprites it looks as if the animation is extremely fine-grained
08:42:35  <planetmaker> But there's nothing else one could do than just check whether you need each or every 2nd, 3rd, 4th of them only
08:42:45  <V453000> wa
08:42:56  <V453000> ah
08:43:04  <planetmaker> I only saw motion when I compared 1st to 10th or so :P
08:43:11  <V453000> mhm :P
08:43:15  <V453000> will see
08:43:22  <V453000> this is for 25 fps and it was very fast in 25fps most of the time
08:43:33  <V453000> I think using all of them and using them in like 10-ish fps would be good
08:43:35  <planetmaker> openttd has 30fps. No less, no more. No change
08:44:21  <V453000> well the animation speed varies
08:45:04  <planetmaker> and animation can use 30, 15, 7.5, 3.75,... fps
08:45:09  <planetmaker> basically 30 / 2^n
08:45:10  <V453000> 15 is fine then
08:46:06  <planetmaker> in even more detail: (1000/30) / 2^n
08:46:07  <planetmaker> :P
08:46:11  <V453000> 128/15 is a nice 8 seconds
08:46:22  <V453000> or so
08:47:34  <V453000> can use 30 for some industries producing insanely fast, and 7.5 to start with
08:47:40  <V453000> 0 for unserviced ones? :P
08:47:45  <planetmaker> sure
08:48:05  <V453000> unserviced has 0 production so that should work :D
08:48:56  <planetmaker> basically what I tried to say: before you render everything with a zillion animation frames: try with one industry as of how many you really need
08:50:05  <V453000> will code one tonight
08:50:06  <V453000> and see
08:50:16  <V453000> rendering doesnt take effort :P
08:56:12  <planetmaker> V453000, slower speed does not necessarily mean more frames. As you can control the duration a frame is shown. So even for slow speeds it might work with less frames than you actually rendered / pushed
08:56:23  <planetmaker> which makes the NewGRF less cpu-heavy to use
08:57:06  <planetmaker> but yeah, needs testing. I'll be curious as of the results :)
09:01:50  <V453000> mhm :)

10:23:47  <planetmaker> instead they seem to grow in size

10:26:25  <V453000> that wmv is probably old
10:26:29  <V453000> check repository
10:26:36  <V453000> I measured the volume and it is 1:1
10:26:42  <V453000> (previously wasnt)
10:28:20  <V453000> xcept it is in the shadow most of the time XD
10:28:46  <V453000> but the difference should be visible
10:28:49  <V453000> sec I will make a new wmv :P
10:29:10  <planetmaker> when you stamp something the volume should even shrink, not just stay the same.

10:30:21  <V453000> volume of result: 1,89 m3 volume of input: 2,01 m3 :P
10:30:28  <V453000> 5% :)
10:30:29  <planetmaker> :)
10:31:18  <planetmaker> so, V453000 which industry is the sawmill + stone stamper?
10:31:27  <V453000> 1X, this one? :D
10:31:33  <planetmaker> (that's the clear disadvantage of numbering instead of naming ;) )
10:31:37  <planetmaker> unrememberable :P
10:31:48  <V453000> oh you mean the name
10:31:52  <V453000> construction yard? :P
10:31:55  <planetmaker> yeah 1x
10:32:17  <planetmaker> indeed stones are smaller there now
10:32:19  <V453000> well once you remember that stone quarry, clay pit and  forest are 1A, 1B and 1C, it isnt that bad :P
10:32:22  <planetmaker> video is old
10:32:54  <planetmaker> it's something I need to remember. That's bad ;)
10:32:57  <V453000> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/6277/1X.wmv
10:33:23  <planetmaker> All I usually can remember I saw a ... pit. Or a circle saw :)
10:33:27  <V453000> no you can remember either name, OR number :P OR both :P
10:33:37  <V453000> OR imagez =D
10:33:50  <V453000> and the stone should probably still be a bit smaller
10:33:58  <planetmaker> with an image I don#t need to remember names. With good naming it will explain what image is attached. Numbers never give that association :)
10:33:59  <V453000> OR the rock larger
10:34:09  <V453000> mhm :)
10:34:20  <V453000> 1X is multilingual? :P
10:34:35  <planetmaker> it's non-lingual
10:34:38  <V453000> :D
10:34:42  <V453000> it is omni-lingual
10:34:50  <V453000> xcept the shit with different letters :D
10:35:05  <V453000> hm I think the input stone should be larger
10:35:06  <V453000> Y?
10:35:16  <planetmaker> 1雹

10:38:44  <planetmaker> hm... translations...
10:43:25  <planetmaker> any chance to activate translations for yeti, V453000 ?
10:44:52  <V453000> I wouldnt do that at least yet
10:45:00  <planetmaker> why not?
10:45:11  <V453000> many strings are subject to change
10:45:30  <planetmaker> They are. And they would continuously adopt
10:49:06  <V453000> will see
10:49:10  <V453000> but you know what I think about translation
10:49:13  <planetmaker> and I don't see the industry and cargoe names change
10:49:18  <planetmaker> I do. And I totally disagree
10:49:25  <V453000> which is fine
10:49:31  <planetmaker> it's also a dent in my fun playing it, tbh
10:49:51  <planetmaker> it's one of the things stopping it being a perfect newgrf
10:50:15  <planetmaker> the love to the last detail lacking for this
10:50:36  <planetmaker> which you have elsewhere. Which makes it hard to understand really
10:51:03  <planetmaker> even more so as they don't cost you *anything*
10:53:58  <V453000> BAD FEATURE :)
10:54:14  <planetmaker> no. It's what makes the game popular and accessible
10:54:39  <V453000> I meant the missing translation being a bad feature
10:55:22  <planetmaker> a bad feature is missing them without good reason
10:56:18  <V453000> there is 1X 1A? :D :P
10:57:07  <planetmaker> doesn't translate well to Arabic, Korean, Chinese, Russian, or Thai ;)
10:57:22  <V453000> well enough :P
10:57:39  <planetmaker> might actually make it unplayable as openttd might not find any font to display it all. Thus showing only rectangles
10:57:47  <planetmaker> or what-not
10:58:15  <planetmaker> thus no translations might really cause problems for non-latin character systems
10:58:50  <planetmaker> or at least make it look very bad due to only bad font being available

11:05:19  <planetmaker> should we maybe try how it goes and looks V453000 ?
11:09:16  <V453000> I still dont get what does anybody need translation for, 5 year olds are able to play the game without reading just as much
11:09:36  <V453000> and I dont get how does anybody not want to learn english when they exist on the internet
11:10:10  <__ln__> i bet there is a huge non-english internet which you and me are not aware of.
11:10:37  <planetmaker> many people speak less well English than you and me. And they'll be happy to understand things instead of just seeing it
11:10:54  <V453000> those people are a bad feature
11:11:01  <planetmaker> no, they aren't
11:13:01  <planetmaker> languages shape the way we think. Different languages lead to different ways to think and look at things. It's a bonus usually
11:17:07  <planetmaker> and anyway, it won't change how you play the game, nor shall it. But why deny others theirs if it doesn't cost you?
11:17:23  <planetmaker> just because you can? That's petty then really
11:18:25  <planetmaker> and it probably will give you also more testers
11:18:43  <planetmaker> which won't be bad. In the worst case you just ignore their advice ;)
11:30:10  <V453000> k, what does it require me to do
11:30:59  <planetmaker> Not much. It requires to add one or two files to the yeti repo - which I can do for you, if you like
11:31:28  <planetmaker> so people can translate. And the other allows the translation service to add back the translations to the repository. It's optional
11:31:34  <V453000> + pull before every pushint? or?
11:31:37  <V453000> pushing
11:32:00  <planetmaker> it's then advisable to pull before every *commit* (not push)
11:32:12  <planetmaker> though it only commits max. once per day, early evening
11:32:14  <V453000> right
11:32:19  <planetmaker> thus you know when
11:32:24  <V453000> that is not so bad
11:32:29  <V453000> do it then please
11:32:38  <planetmaker> happily will. thanks :)
11:33:04  <V453000> yes yes pleasure on my side meh unicorns blabla cowpig
11:33:18  <V453000>  /me opens discussion whether cowpig should be translateable
11:33:30  <planetmaker> :)
11:34:11  <planetmaker> and... yes: should be translatable. Kuhschwein
11:34:16  <V453000> pff
11:35:31  <planetmaker> Schweinekuh would work, too. And sound better. But also closer to a swear word :P

11:35:49  <V453000> :D perfect
11:36:10  <planetmaker> the translation of pigdog is a swear word in German ;)
11:36:32  <V453000> didnt know that

11:36:53  <planetmaker> (so plural of pig)

11:37:30  <V453000> aha

11:39:27  <planetmaker> are you translator?
11:39:39  <V453000> idk, am I? :D
11:40:23  <V453000> I did manage to log in and I told it to create cs_cz
11:40:29  <planetmaker> no. But now. There wasn't a czech translator yet
11:40:34  <V453000> it sez upload language file to start translation
11:40:35  <V453000> :d
11:40:41  <planetmaker> uh?
11:40:58  <V453000> never mind :D
11:41:06  <planetmaker> it says to select language, no?
11:41:27  <V453000> all fine now
11:41:56  <V453000> WTF this quiz is tough
11:42:03  <planetmaker> :)
11:42:04  <V453000> I dont even know the translation for clay XD
11:42:10  <planetmaker> :D

11:43:54  <planetmaker> probably cases for Czech. Dunno whether it has
11:43:58  <V453000> big, dat :d wat
11:44:19  <V453000> ._.
11:45:11  <planetmaker> oh gosh. It has a shitload of cases
11:45:45  <V453000> oh t hat
11:45:46  <V453000> nom voc
11:45:48  <V453000> jesus fuck
11:45:50  <V453000> the 7 things
11:45:52  <planetmaker> nom(inativ), gen(itiv), dat(iv), acc(usativ) voc(ativ) loc(ativ) ins(?) big(?) small(?)
11:45:54  <planetmaker> yeah
11:45:55  <V453000> I see
11:45:57  <V453000> amazing
11:46:04  <V453000> ins big small idk what is
11:46:06  <V453000> but the other yeah
11:46:18  <V453000> I will just fill in the first thing
11:46:25  <planetmaker> and obviously czech also has a shitload of genders...
11:46:33  <planetmaker> m, f, n, map, nmp, fp, np :P
11:47:01  <planetmaker> skip the cases, if you think it doesn't matter
11:47:08  <V453000> ye
11:47:11  <planetmaker> i.e. if the wording is the same
11:47:19  <V453000> I dont think the whole translation matters, remember? :P
11:47:31  <planetmaker> cargoes seem to need normal, gen and big and acc
11:47:36  <V453000> the cases almost always change the words somehow
11:47:46  <V453000> but it is understandable without it
11:48:16  <planetmaker> and mail has everything in the openttd lang file ;)
11:48:54  <V453000> is it just me or is the translation thingy giving me random strings to fill in? XD
11:49:30  <V453000> I gues it makes more sense to pull the file and edit it locally?
11:49:37  <V453000> or?
11:50:12  <planetmaker> I don't know the order it gives you strings
11:51:18  <V453000> hm, and every time I update some strings in english, the thingy will detect it and set them as outdated?
11:51:24  <planetmaker> yes
11:51:30  <planetmaker> but only the changed one
11:51:54  <planetmaker> and the translator will see old and new versions
11:52:10  <planetmaker> so s/he can decide whether a change needs translation (or e.g. is just a typo fix)
11:52:31  <V453000> right
11:54:25  <planetmaker> STR_c2B__units_of_cargo and STR_c2B__items_of_cargo seem to be the same?
11:54:36  <V453000> probably? :D
11:54:48  <planetmaker> I like the suggestion of related strings
11:54:52  <V453000> I dont know the intended difference and this looed ok
11:54:55  <planetmaker> helps to keep translation uniform

13:06:44  <planetmaker> then the animation switch looks fine
13:06:45  <V453000> 8bpp has to have the animation too?
13:06:49  <planetmaker> of course
13:06:58  <V453000> k I will just fake it
13:06:59  <planetmaker> every sprite needs to be 8bpp 1x

13:07:25  <V453000> if oldschool stuff, then oldschool without animation :P
13:07:49  <V453000> do you think the second one in graphics{} I have there should work?
13:07:53  <V453000> or should I just do the switch?

17:37:55  <frosch123> which i always wanted, but never really did, because it is so boring
17:38:23  <Rubidium> but in what language?
17:38:26  <juzza1> in what format are images stored inside grf? if compressed, does grfcodec/nmlc compress the input images?

17:55:14  <frosch123> loading happens in parallel to encoding

17:59:10  <V453000> well yeah that is also what it explicitly says but where do I find it

17:59:46  <V453000> yes
17:59:48  <glx> crazy
17:59:52  <frosch123> so, what's the the extrapolation for the final one?
17:59:56  <Eddi|zuHause> for one industry... .p
18:00:05  <frosch123> 15 times that size?
18:00:35  <V453000> well this is one industry, theoretical final one could be 16 times as much
18:00:39  <V453000> right now I have 5 animations
18:00:49  <V453000> that I woud like to get there
18:00:59  <frosch123> i fear you may break ottd :p
18:01:06  <V453000> one or two could probably be majorly reduced
18:01:08  <V453000> so lets say 3
18:01:12  <frosch123> if you fill the 2GB of spritecache, animation will be sluggish :p
18:01:28  <V453000> mhm
18:01:29  <Eddi|zuHause> frosch123: but the 2GB are uncompressed?
18:01:39  <frosch123> it's runlength-encoded
18:01:49  <frosch123> so, not completely uncompressed
18:02:07  <Eddi|zuHause> that only helps if you have long stretches of same colour, like transparent
18:03:06  <frosch123> if that fails, then V may have to try differential animation
18:03:18  <frosch123> which reuse sprites by drawing them over each other
18:03:35  <Eddi|zuHause> aaaaanyway... "daisy chaining" makes sure that processes that actually do finish get finished in a finite time, even if some processes started earlier run indefinitely
18:04:09  <Eddi|zuHause> basically like cantor's enumeration scheme for merging infinite sets

18:12:08  <andythenorth> which is the current problem

18:16:40  <andythenorth> yeah, I’m probably at the limit for winning

18:19:14  * andythenorth will cheat
18:22:30  <frosch123> do it the av9 way
18:22:35  <frosch123> two industries is enough
18:22:45  <frosch123> one to produce, one to processs
18:22:45  <V453000> so I guess I will just try to code 3 animations and see what comes out of it the nfo way? :D
18:23:33  <V453000> yeti way: all industries except one process :P
18:24:04  <frosch123> V453000: you may need some automated image processing which makes the sprites only contain differences to a base image
18:24:17  <V453000> yeah :|
18:24:29  <frosch123> i believe you can save a lot of spritecache that way, when sprites are mostly transparent
18:27:44  <V453000> well IF I had the sprites not overlap, I could save like 30% too
18:27:56  <V453000> but since it is one image and nml takes squares from it, it overlaps a lot
18:28:05  <V453000> which is certainly not optimal either

18:35:36  <Rubidium> frosch123: detecting that and performing such "optimizations" might be something useful for your new GRF codec ;)
18:36:20  <frosch123> haha, it won't code the nfo for you?
18:36:32  <frosch123> s/?//
18:37:57  <frosch123> maybe it is just a plan by pm: make yeti require 3 tools for building, so v starts using a compile farm :p
18:39:49  <frosch123> anyway, yet again no reason to replace grfcodec
18:40:14  <Rubidium> but with the nfo you can deduce whether sections of (ground) sprites are overlapping and then cut them accordingly... or just always cut them to ground tile sizes
18:40:52  <Rubidium> and you might be able to deduce which sprites are to be drawn overlapping and remove duplication from the overlapping sprites
18:41:06  <frosch123> sounds more like something for nml
18:41:12  <frosch123> you do not need the sprite data for that
18:41:24  <andythenorth> V453000: do you have a mostly static background, and only small moving parts?
18:41:52  <V453000> rather like everything moving in this case
18:41:57  <andythenorth> hmm
18:42:25  <andythenorth> so you can’t render out static sprites and animated sprites?
18:42:42  <andythenorth> are they fully animated, or just moving position?
18:42:43  <frosch123> hmm, i think the sprites are mostly static

18:52:41  <Alberth> remove the date :)
18:52:59  <Alberth> you don't need it anyway :)
18:53:25  <V453000> hm
18:53:40  <V453000> so a good thing would be to render 1 statick background, and 1 file with all moving objects?
18:54:38  <Eddi|zuHause> V453000: sounds reasonable
18:55:23  <V453000> I guess I then mix them in the spritelayout right
18:55:51  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, as child sprites
18:56:32  <FLHerne> "andythenorth wonders if we’re pushing the limits of sprite-based blitters" Does any other game with OTTD's graphical complexity still use sprite blitters?
18:57:10  <Eddi|zuHause> opensource? maybe. commercial? no

18:57:44  <glx> commercial usually use paid engines
18:57:49  <glx> and framework
18:58:02  <FLHerne> What commercial things are still sprite-based? Some strange Japanese thing?
18:58:16  <FLHerne> Mobile apps, but those aren't so fiddly

19:10:04  <FLHerne> It's a strange world when addons are a couple of orders of magnitude bigger than the actual game o.O

19:19:38  <frosch123> FLHerne: consider "factorio" :)
19:20:03  <frosch123> they decided against an established engine, since they (reasonably) doubted it would handle 100k of objects
19:20:41  <frosch123> it uses opengl, but the source sprites are all .png
19:22:50  <FLHerne> Compared to OTTD, it doesn't look like it does recolouring, or palette animation, or trying to sort sprites in isometric fake-3D?
19:23:27  <frosch123> haha, ofc no recolouring and palette animation :p
19:23:54  <frosch123> i guess it is pretty much isometric fake-3d though
19:24:12  <frosch123> it has smooth zooming (with opengl), but no rotation (well, because sprites)
19:24:45  <FLHerne> frosch123: The screenshots I've seen just look top-down, except individual sprites. Have they rejigged it at some point?

19:25:21  <frosch123> so, always "top down"
19:26:48  <FLHerne> I mean pure top-down, without isometric fake-3d-ness
19:27:17  <FLHerne> Not that I've played it, I'm just looking through screenshots

19:28:11  <frosch123> stuff slightly overlaps, but there are no bridges
19:28:40  <frosch123> it also uses horizontal/vertical as main directiions
19:28:44  <frosch123> instead of diagonal like ottd
19:28:52  <frosch123> so yes, it may be somewhat easier wrt. sorting
19:29:07  <frosch123> FLHerne: you should watch the trailer, it's awesome :)
19:29:24  <frosch123> correction to earlier: they added recoloring this week :p
19:31:48  <andythenorth> looks retro

20:46:05  <frosch123> i mean wrt. scripting support
20:46:11  <V453000> hm, how do I make the industry animate only when producing?
20:46:19  <V453000> animation_triggers: bitmask(ANIM_TRIGGER_INDTILE_DISTRIBUTES_CARGO);
20:46:22  <V453000> added this into properties
20:46:24  <V453000> wrong? :D
20:46:57  <frosch123> didn't you use the "next_frame" callback?
20:46:57  <V453000> it animates all the time apparently
20:47:00  <V453000> I did
20:47:12  <frosch123> then, make it a switch and check whether there is cargo waiting
20:47:16  <V453000> 	graphics { 	default: industry_3X_33_spritelayout; 	anim_control: CB_RESULT_START_ANIMATION; 	anim_next_frame: CB_RESULT_NEXT_FRAME; 	}
20:47:18  <frosch123> return the same frame when nothing is waiting
20:47:29  <V453000> aha
20:47:39  <V453000> and remove the animation_triggers then?
20:47:47  <frosch123> alternatively you can do complicated stuff to start/stop animation
20:47:55  <frosch123> which is better wrt. performance
20:48:03  <V453000> mhf
20:48:17  <V453000> I just thought making it animate only when producing will save some performance
20:48:31  <frosch123> you could use ANIM_TRIGGER_INDTILE_RECEIVED_CARGO to start the animation
20:48:51  <frosch123> and anim_next_frame to stop it
20:48:58  <frosch123> yeah, i guess that would be best
20:49:46  <frosch123> V453000: if you want to save performance, then you need to stop it, returning the same frame does not work then :)
20:49:56  <V453000> right
20:49:58  <V453000> soo
20:50:06  <V453000> how do I apply the trigger to a switch?
20:50:58  <frosch123> set the animation trigger property to bitmask(blabla_RECEIVED_CARGO, blabla_INDUSTRY_LOOP)
20:51:14  <frosch123> link the "anim_control" to a switch
20:51:29  <frosch123> which checks "extra_callback_info2"
20:51:58  *** Brumi [~quassel@78-131-41-191.pool.digikabel.hu] has joined #openttd
20:52:05  <V453000> isnt distributes_cargo better for the overtime production
20:52:28  <V453000> guess that would require that the player is picking up the cargo which isnt guaranteed
20:52:41  <frosch123> then make it return "start"/"stop" animation and "nothing" as default case
20:52:52  <frosch123> V453000: i thought: start when cargo arrives, stop when cargo is empty
20:52:59  <frosch123> no idea what you want with "distribute"
20:53:15  <V453000> k your approach makes sense :P

21:00:06  <V453000> aka what to put to "XX" in XX: CB_RESULT...
21:00:19  <V453000> to make the switch react to result XX
21:09:27  <Alberth> in callback_flags  of industry tiles?
21:09:36  <Alberth> it says not to use those
21:09:47  <V453000> frosch sed :D
21:10:22  <V453000> but this is from the anim_control callback
21:10:29  <V453000> checking for extra_info2
21:10:47  <V453000> like, when current_date gives e.g. 1920, I dont know what extra_info2 gives

21:12:59  <Alberth>  extra_callback_info2 contains the reason to trigger the animation, see the table below  <-- and pointing to http://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:IndustryTiles#Animation_triggers at the bottom
21:13:13  <V453000> well yeah
21:13:14  <V453000> but

21:13:58  <V453000> aha
21:13:59  <V453000> so like ANIM_TRIGGER_INDTILE_RECEIVED_CARGO : CB_RESULT_START_ANIMATION;
21:14:29  <Alberth> yes
21:14:44  <V453000> hm stop if cargo is empty
21:14:58  <Alberth> and probably more frame numbers, as you can also return a frame number
21:16:22  <V453000> what do you mean?
21:16:25  <Alberth> CB_RESULT_START_ANIMATION does "respectively start the animation in its current frame" it seems, so I think you must return 0 for the first frame
21:17:09  <Alberth> "Return the animation frame to show, or CB_RESULT_XXX  ..."   <-- is says you can also return a frame number
21:17:16  <Alberth> *It
21:18:35  <Alberth> so I am guessing return 0, and with anim_next_frame the next frame   CB_RESULT_NEXT_FRAME or CB_RESULT_STOP_ANIMATION
21:18:54  <Alberth> with a few random bits if you want it randomized
