08:55:04  <andythenorth> Rubidium: but which end should I put the wake? o_O
08:55:58  <Rubidium> the rear?
08:56:03  <andythenorth> ok
08:57:05  <Rubidium> though I guess wakes are kinda pointless since whenever you change direction the wake shows somewhere where the ship has never been
08:57:56  <Rubidium> hmm... adaptation of ship smoke, if ever that gets implemented, "smoke" at the water level where the ship has been and we got wakes!
09:01:04  <andythenorth> !!!
09:01:06  <andythenorth> :)
09:01:25  <andythenorth> might actually be good

09:16:22  <andythenorth> much faster to draw
09:19:04  <Eddi|zuHause> but the wake makes it asymmetric!
09:20:46  <peter1138> Car ferries are a BAD FEATURE
09:21:16  <peter1138> Whatever happened to loading vehicles onto ships? hehe
09:21:51  <andythenorth> you have a patch for it

12:43:25  <ATS63> say uhh...
12:43:51  <ATS63> if you build a station between two industries, and both those industries accept the same cargo... only one of those industries ends up getting it?
12:44:11  <ATS63> Is there a way around that?
12:44:40  <ATS63> I'm playing ECS if that makes any difference
12:45:25  <Alberth> build 2 stations, one close to one industry
12:45:35  <Alberth> *each
12:46:05  <Alberth> ie the industry closest to the station sign gets the cargo
12:46:30  <ATS63> Yeah, in this circumstance I'd have to demolish a town
12:47:39  <Alberth> an alternative is to be happy with delivery to one industry :)
12:48:30  <ATS63> actually it is only two trains... I can fit a single line station in there
12:48:39  <ATS63> just for those two trains
12:51:44  *** Jelmazmo [~kvirc@host-95-189-137-166.pppoe.omsknet.ru] has joined #openttd
12:51:59  <Alberth> if you use cargo dist, you can also setup a feeder for the second industry
12:52:43  <Alberth> depending on the amount of cargo, capacity may be a problem
12:53:31  <Zuu> Also without cargodist, you could transfer cargo to a station and use lorries to deliver the last hop to each industry.
12:53:54  <Zuu> This independent of if the transfer station is in range of any industry.
12:58:34  <Jelmazmo> o/

12:59:20  <ATS63> o rly
12:59:25  <ATS63> I'll have to fiddle
13:01:14  <Jelmazmo> Anybody know what happened with http://forums.ttdrussia.net ? I tried to download few mods available only there, but it is not working :/
13:02:46  <ATS63> I did build that single line though, but it seems like a poor mans fix
13:27:47  <Alberth> Jelmazmo: you may want to ask at the forum, many more readers there
13:29:05  <ATS63> heh this station isn't bad... better than old builds I use to do...
13:29:16  <ATS63> 10 platforms, 71 trains
13:29:28  <ATS63> no blocks or congestion issues

13:34:55  <Alberth> large station :)
13:35:18  <ATS63> Could probably do it with less platforms too... its hard to know whats going on
13:36:55  *** Zer0__ [~Zer0@CPE-120-149-117-144.bjzv1.vic.bigpond.net.au] has quit [Read error: Operation timed out]
13:37:05  <Alberth> yeah, at some scale you don't see all details any more
13:37:07  <Zuu> Every time I see "71 trains" without a "/ [time unit]" it makes me want to write a patch that adds a such measurement. :-)
13:37:29  <Zuu> But, so far I haven't made time for that.
13:37:53  <Alberth> :D
13:38:09  <ATS63> When the time unit would be months, it doesn't sound as good :(
13:38:46  <ATS63> But that would be a neat idea
13:39:26  <Alberth> I'd rather have a window with average queue length for each station :)
13:39:53  <V453000> Zuu: amout of cargo going through the station should be quite good measurement :P
13:39:54  <V453000> which kind of already is there
13:39:56  <Eddi|zuHause> there used to be a waypoint traffic counting patch (around r5000)
13:40:01  <Alberth> or a message "queue length grows rapidly  at XXX"
13:40:35  <ATS63> This station has a queue of almost 0 :D
13:40:57  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: how to measure a queue=
13:40:59  <Eddi|zuHause> ?
13:41:19  <Zuu> SuperLib has code to calculate the queue length for all airport types in the game. :-)
13:41:26  <ATS63> Braking leading up to the station, at any distance. Would be computationally difficult but
13:41:48  <ATS63> Or based on red lights thrown
13:41:57  <Alberth> stopped trains on incoming tracks, mostly
13:42:46  <Alberth> until you hit an empty block or a moving train
13:42:49  <Zuu> For train stations, the average occupancy of the plattforms may be an easier but also good measurement of how saturated the station is.
13:43:32  <Eddi|zuHause> Zuu: that won't detect insufficient entry track layout
13:44:07  <Zuu> Eddi|zuHause: right
13:44:10  *** SylvieLorxu [~sylvie@dhcp-077-251-165-191.chello.nl] has joined #openttd
13:44:50  <Eddi|zuHause> but queue length might not be a good measurement either. large stations may generally have longer queues without being congested
13:45:59  <ATS63> http://i.imgur.com/fhcUCzu.png
13:46:05  <ATS63> Thats my station
13:49:23  <Rubidium> with that length of trains, and that type of trains 5 platforms should be enough to handle the traffic
13:49:56  <Rubidium> assuming they can immediately fully load
13:50:18  *** Myhorta [~Myhorta@00018fad.user.oftc.net] has joined #openttd
13:51:02  <ATS63> Pretty much. I just had to ramp up the steel trains cause they weren't loading quick enough
13:52:53  <V453000> using separate stations for loading and unloading is not a bad idea either btw
13:53:09  <V453000> or waypoints
13:53:15  <Alberth> indeed, it prevents deadlocks :)
13:53:21  <ATS63> Apparently I can ramp up the iron ore trains too, at every mine that feeds. So I should probably find another coal mine :/
13:54:04  <ATS63> Waypoints wouldn't be a bad idea
13:54:05  <Alberth> you should build longer turns, these double 45 degrees corners kill speed
13:54:40  <Rubidium> Alberth: unless the original acceleration is used
13:54:55  <ATS63> nah realistic
13:55:26  <ATS63> hehe, you should see every junction of mine... I probably could do better
13:55:47  <Alberth> that gives major havoc in pulling away, you need exit tracks then at the station
13:56:16  <ATS63> http://i.imgur.com/f1hDala.png
13:58:55  <V453000> ._.
14:00:08  <Alberth> oef
14:01:09  <Eddi|zuHause> did you mean "eof"? :p
14:02:18  <Eddi|zuHause> the offsets between the wagons and engines seems wrong
14:02:54  <Eddi|zuHause> like if they don't belong to the same vehicle set
14:03:49  <ATS63> ecs & firs original vehicle set
14:04:40  <Alberth> the left incoming stream should drive around the right outging stream, to keep split before merge
14:04:58  <Eddi|zuHause> particularly, the engines look like they are driving off the rails
14:06:07  <ATS63> Can't say I've ever noticed
14:06:48  <Eddi|zuHause> you can also see this in the vehicle list. there is a gap between engines and wagons, and they don't appear on the same height
14:07:14  <Alberth> if you put the tracks further apart from each other you get room to do the merge and split between the tracks
14:07:15  <ATS63> Ahh true
14:07:37  <Eddi|zuHause> sorry for spoiling your game, you will now forever see this :p
14:07:48  <ATS63> Probably not :P
14:07:49  <Alberth> use a different train set :)
14:08:08  <Alberth> or report to the newgrf developers, and hope they fix it
14:08:40  <Eddi|zuHause> i presume the engines come from opengfx, while the wagons are copies of the original?
14:08:48  <ATS63> or ignore, the resolution is pretty poor anyway
14:08:58  <ATS63> yep
14:09:11  <ATS63> I'd say so
14:10:56  <Alberth> you can use opengfx+trains  instead
14:13:04  <ATS63> I'll apply that to this scenario I modified. Was considering I should publish it
14:13:44  <ATS63> Modified the Australia scenario, cleaned up the coastline, positioned the cities and towns better, added some newgrfs like ecs
14:14:18  <ATS63> Makes it easy when you know where everything is
14:14:39  <Alberth> assuming you know where things are in australie :p
14:15:01  <Alberth> *australia
14:15:43  <ATS63> I took it as far as placing mines approx where they should be
14:15:44  <Alberth> having town newgrfs with geographic location of names would be neat
14:16:38  <keoz> you mean, sort of coordinates ?
14:17:05  <ATS63> 500km +/- :P
14:17:29  <Alberth> yeah, so if you generate a map, towns get more or less at the right place relative to each other
14:18:04  <keoz> yeah, that'd be nice
14:18:08  <Alberth> hmm, I guess you could write a gs or an ai for that
14:18:58  <keoz> it isn't possible to load more than one gamescript at a time, isn't it ?
14:19:15  <Eddi|zuHause> correct
14:19:35  <keoz> that'd also be nice :)
14:19:39  <Alberth> keoz: In the general case, a name consists of several parts, so the tricky question is how to attach a location to a name created from a set of parts

15:32:49  <andythenorth> oopsie
15:32:56  <andythenorth> well it worked for my test case :P
15:33:52  <frosch123> hmm, actually,.. it does not work for aircraft
15:34:18  *** DabuYu [DabuYu@128.250.79.238] has joined #openttd
15:37:37  <frosch123> hmm, nml specs only have one table for all the vehicle callbacks
15:37:44  <frosch123> i need more space :p
15:52:42  <frosch123> http://paste.openttdcoop.org/show/3633/ <- i wonder whether it needs other constants, or maybe inline functions
15:53:24  <frosch123> currently nml uses a built-in "visual_effect" function to create values for the properties and callback 10
15:53:34  <frosch123> those would be completely replaced when using the new callback
15:53:51  <frosch123> not exactly sure, how to properly represent this in nml
15:54:08  <frosch123> one could also deprecate the complete previous visual_effect thing

16:02:44  *** DabuYu [DabuYu@128.250.79.238] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
16:04:47  <Alberth> a callback is just an expression? you cannot simply add a type and a spawning type cb ?
16:05:19  <frosch123> the property is in the "item" part, the callback in the "graphics" part
16:05:33  <frosch123> the former is a constant expression, the latter is a switch
16:06:08  <frosch123> usually nml sets the necessary properties when using a callback in the "graphics" section
16:06:28  <Alberth> seems like a good idea :)
16:06:33  <frosch123> but here there is somewhat a conflict with the old "visual_effect" resp. "visual_effect_and_powered_wagons"

16:09:04  <Alberth> unless compability requirements forbid it, I'd say just throw out the old way of doing visual effects

16:14:47  <andythenorth> I forgot that
16:15:37  <frosch123> maybe pm has an idea :)
16:19:33  <planetmaker> sorry, I didn't yet catch up
16:19:38  <planetmaker> Just got home 5 minutes ago :)
16:21:39  <planetmaker> what is the exact problem, from when should I read back to understand?
16:22:48  <frosch123> 17:37
16:24:42  <andythenorth> extend visual_effect() ?
16:24:53  <planetmaker> ok... what is the conflict? the naming?
16:25:37  <frosch123> no, when using "create_visual_effect", all current values for "visual_effect" are useless, except DISABLE_WAGON_POWER
16:25:38  <andythenorth> frosch123: do I understand?  We need to teach visual_effect() about using advanced effects
16:25:53  <frosch123> they would all be replaced with the new VISUAL_EFFECT_MODEL_xxx
16:26:02  <frosch123> the constants, and the build-in function
16:26:04  <planetmaker> ok... but then... where's the problem? :)
16:26:14  <frosch123> the documentation :)
16:26:30  <planetmaker> ok. Can NML *always* use the new one instead of the old? It can, yes?
16:26:39  <frosch123> doing simple and advanced visual effects are completely separate things
16:26:41  *** Stimrol [~Stimrol@46-239-219-51.tal.is] has quit [Quit: ZNC - http://znc.in]
16:27:31  <planetmaker> so we will also want to offer both, in the future?
16:27:33  <frosch123> planetmaker: that would mean declaring the current built-in function and constants deprecated
16:27:48  <frosch123> well, the old method is kind of easier to use :)
16:27:57  <frosch123> no STORE_TEMP and such
16:29:23  <andythenorth> can’t set visual_effect(VISUAL_EFFECT_ADVANCE, 0) ?
16:29:33  <andythenorth> or such
16:30:38  <frosch123> the second value would always have to be 0, so the function is pointless
16:31:23  * andythenorth wonders what other cbs do that replace a property
16:31:46  <frosch123> well, in this case there are two callbacks :)
16:32:45  <planetmaker> can we rewrite them such that NML can decide old for simple cases and advanced for the complicated ones
16:33:01  <planetmaker> similar to what andy mentions? Would mean a change of syntax. But could maybe unify it?
16:33:45  <andythenorth> oh yeah cb10 exists already
16:33:47  <andythenorth> ho
16:36:41  <planetmaker> but possibly it's easier to teach NML about an advanced_visual_effect. And have it spit out warnings if it's used in conjunction with the old one
16:36:43  <andythenorth> could just put the burden on the author
16:36:56  <planetmaker> I'm sure there are people who need the old one of just whatever edge case
16:37:34  <andythenorth> “Using advanced_visual_effect will cause any values for visual_effect to be ignored"
16:37:38  <andythenorth> or such
16:39:44  <planetmaker> well, yes, I guess. And NML can parse the code to detect usage of both and issue a warning when it's used
16:39:51  <planetmaker> similar to the white pixels or so
16:39:57  <planetmaker> Probably the best solution
16:40:05  <frosch123> http://paste.openttdcoop.org/show/3635/ <- maybe a build-in function for creating the store_temp values
16:40:46  <frosch123> but imo most confusing are the names of the constants
16:40:57  <frosch123> maybe we have a differen name than VISUAL_EFFECT for the new stuff
16:41:11  *** DabuYu [DabuYu@128.250.79.238] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
16:41:12  <andythenorth> or VISUAL_EFFECT_SPAWN_MODEL
16:41:17  <frosch123> so the constants for old and new are not mixed
16:41:37  <planetmaker> EFFECT_SPRITE
16:41:42  <andythenorth> SPAWN_MODEL
16:41:49  <frosch123> VISUAL_EFFECT_STEAM (old), vs VISUAL_EFFECT_MODEL_STEAM + VISUAL_EFFECT_TYPE_STEAM (new)
16:41:49  <andythenorth> it’s called spawn model in the nfo spec
16:42:09  <andythenorth> this constant only controls spawning yes?
16:42:16  <frosch123> so, remove the "visual_effect" property and callback, and add a "spawn_model" thing instead?
16:42:26  <frosch123> calling the whole visual_effect thing deprecated?
16:42:57  <frosch123> effect_spawn_model and effect_spawn_model_and_powered_wagons :p
16:42:59  <planetmaker> ah, that you mean. Making one new function, spawn_model which integrates CB 0x10 and 0x160 into one interface?
16:43:09  <planetmaker> and call the existing deprecated? Sounds good
16:43:18  <andythenorth> I wasn’t proposing deprecated, just constant name
16:43:24  <andythenorth> but if it works to unify them...
16:43:34  <planetmaker> if we make it new as a common name, we have to deprecate the old :)
16:44:15  <planetmaker> or we call it just effect_creation
16:44:28  <andythenorth> we could just use the new one and write out an action 2 when we produce the output :P

17:21:09  <frosch123> andythenorth: right, i was wondering about that, the current implementation limits it to 3, though i noticed afterwards that the docs said 15

18:13:47  <Yho> Thanks everyone. And thanks Alberth, I had trouble finding it even with all the different commands
18:14:33  <planetmaker> Yho, it's always the line where it's preceeded by the type of the return value. All other lines are where it's called
18:15:04  <Alberth> planetmaker: and no ; at the end of the line, else it's a declaration :)

18:15:40  <Yho> Alberth: planetmaker: I was looking for line without ; but looking for return type s easier
18:15:52  <planetmaker> :)
18:16:18  <Alberth> not indented by a tab is also easy to spot
18:18:38  *** DabuYu [DabuYu@128.250.79.238] has joined #openttd
18:18:41  <Yho> Alberth: Oh yes I'll remember that.
18:28:51  <keoz> mmh ... grep -R
18:29:08  <keoz> why the hell I am always using find /src -type f -exec grep ?
18:29:30  <planetmaker> :)
18:29:34  <frosch123> maybe you use ancient unix, and are not used to gnu extensions?
18:29:58  <keoz> I remember that at some point I had problems using recursive grep
18:30:13  <frosch123> grep -I --exclude-dir=".svn" --exclude-dir=".hg" --exclude-dir="lang" --exclude="*~" "$@" <- that's what my editor uses
18:30:22  <keoz> not that ancient, it's an uptodate archlinux :p
18:30:46  <frosch123> in addition to the -R which the editor adds itself via some checkbox
18:32:04  <Zuu> I tend to use grep -r. But maybe -R is better :-)
18:32:31  <frosch123> hardly a difference
18:32:31  <andythenorth> so it seems that nobody floats rafts of logs down the Rhine, Elbe or Danube
18:32:35  <frosch123> i guess i also use -r
18:33:22  <keoz> andythenorth: there arent't so much forests to cut in Europe anymore, I think :p
18:34:27  <keoz> -R follow symlinks
18:34:32  <frosch123> i thought europe is one of the most suitable continents for forestry
18:34:58  <frosch123> fast growing trees, easy regrowing
18:35:29  <keoz> It's suitable for it, but large parts of ancients forests doesn't exist anymore. Cutted for agriculture.
18:36:05  <Rubidium> the main reason at least the Rhine isn't suitable is the huge amount of ships going there
18:37:06  <planetmaker> yeah, all those rivers are official waterways with heavy ship traffic. No place for unstearable rafts
18:39:54  <Rubidium> also most forestry in (central) Europe is relatively small scale
18:40:23  <planetmaker> that, too.
18:41:24  <Rubidium> even then, most of it won't be near those rivers and between the forest and the river there's usually a town so throwing logs of a mountain will not be appreciated
18:41:37  <Rubidium> nor will dumping them in the river with a helicopter
18:42:52  <planetmaker> the road network is also too dense. No point there. Just put it onto trucks and haul it to the sawmill directly

19:36:31  <andythenorth> hmm
19:36:39  <andythenorth> if I make very large barges
19:36:52  <andythenorth> (basically size of current largest ships)
19:37:00  <andythenorth> then they’ll look quite bad if used on rivers and canals
19:45:18  <andythenorth> already the largest barge overlaps land a lot
19:45:24  <andythenorth> and I could make it 25% longer :P
19:50:54  <Supercheese> option for double- or triple-wide rivers on mapgen?
19:51:03  <Supercheese> players can always doublewide their canals
19:57:35  <peter1138> Stick to TTD sizes
20:02:26  <andythenorth> could just cheat
20:02:51  <andythenorth> capacity != scale
20:03:24  <andythenorth> someone should do articulated ships
20:06:30  <Alberth> with articulated smoke?
20:06:56  <andythenorth> I could draw the sprites using the effect cb?

23:11:50  <amsu> ok,..
23:12:49  <MTsPony> lol
23:12:51  <MTsPony> jaja.

23:13:08  <MTsPony> :b
23:13:13  <FLHerne> 'y' -> 'I', 'ingles' -> 'english', but I can understand you :-)
23:13:37  <amsu> JAJAJJAJA  piece of animal!!
23:14:00  <glx> MTsPony: maybe wrong version of openttd
23:14:12  <MTsPony> Nein. i checked with both my custom and 1.4.1
23:14:21  <MTsPony> would be weird if it was version related?
23:14:40  <glx> some newgrf are for nightlies only IIRC
23:14:50  <MTsPony> does 26694 correspond to a nightly?
23:14:52  <amsu> ....WTF????
23:15:00  <amsu> :(
23:15:15  <MTsPony> well, cant find it with that version either. lol. I assume thats a nightly.
23:15:49  <FLHerne> amsu: Did you have more questions?
23:15:53  <MTsPony> Can you override this behavior? I suppose manually downloading it and place it on server, other people can download it from bananas even if they cant see it in their list either right?
23:16:05  <MTsPony> same with different version
23:16:08  <MTsPony> of newgrfs
23:16:16  <MTsPony> meh ill try it, thx
23:16:35  <Supercheese> Yeah, uploaders can specify version restrictions
23:16:41  <glx> newgrf can check the game version and disable themself IIRC
23:16:47  <Supercheese> "Cannot be downloaded with X version(s) of OTTD"
23:16:53  <amsu> heyyy superchees is herre too! =)

23:46:01  <amsu> or one o r the other?

23:46:03  <keoz> no interest
23:46:12  <Supercheese> but also it has fewer vehicles IIRC
