03:48:11  <supermop_> how many lights do you use Pikka ?
03:48:49  <Pikka> 3, but there's no rhyme or reason to that. I just added and modified until it looked good. :)
03:49:20  <Pikka> one directly overhead, one to the front-right "sun position", and one behind the camera to fill in shadows slightly.
03:50:03  <supermop_> yeah i need moreambient

03:50:50  <Pikka> http://pikkarail.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/evo3.png
03:50:58  <Pikka> that was the effect of adding the overhead one :)
03:51:49  <Pikka> (obviously the materials and the textures on the top two changed slightly too)
03:52:09  <Pikka> but they look much more solid if they don't fall off to black so much at the back

09:26:53  <planetmaker> supermop, rendering by V: I think he renders the whole multi-tile industry as one and only then has nmlc cut it into the pieces as needed for each individual tile
09:29:23  <peter1138> Dom't do that :)

09:30:05  <planetmaker> peter1138, why not?
09:30:54  <peter1138> Lack of layout variety.
09:30:55  <planetmaker> if I have a 96px wide building (1x2 tiles), I draw the left 64px on tile 1 and the last 32px on tile2
09:31:08  <planetmaker> well, that's another thing, yes
09:31:31  <planetmaker> but generally rendering a multi-tile thing and only cutting sprites for each tile is a nice way to do.
09:32:01  <peter1138> Ah, multo-tile houses are different.
09:32:23  <planetmaker> not all of his industries can be modularized

09:32:34  <planetmaker> some could
09:33:47  <supermop> modelling pubs now
09:34:07  <supermop> or 'hotels' as they are all called in this town
09:35:40  <peter1138> planetmaker, only because of the way they're drawn :)
09:36:22  <supermop> planetmaker: i'm not too worried about rendering the whole house and cutting it up, but more juggling what to put on a tile
09:36:24  <planetmaker> peter1138, also the way they work. Thinking of the circular conveyor belt thingy. No way to really break it down without making it a totally different one
09:37:17  <Eddi|zuHause> adding a segment here or there. may make animation tricky, though
09:37:20  <peter1138> That boils down to the same thing. They can't be modular because they weren't designed as modular.
09:37:59  <planetmaker> yes, that makes the animation much more a pain :)
09:38:09  <planetmaker> and yeti yet much bigger :P
09:38:51  <supermop> i dont care too much about whether to do 2 or 3 houses per tile from a scale consideration, more is it more boring to have fewer houses on the tile, or more boring to have less extra stuff, like gardens and alleyways
09:39:29  <planetmaker> not sure that too many houses per tile look too well from our distorted scale POV
09:39:41  <planetmaker> thus IMHO go for fewer houses with more variations
09:40:27  <Eddi|zuHause> i agree
09:41:31  <Eddi|zuHause> although i generally found the length of the example houses weird... i've never ssen a layout like this, the long side facing away from the street
09:42:25  <supermop> i think it is an odd melbourn thing - when ive been to other parts of australia they look more 'regular'
09:42:59  <supermop> maybe that makes it a BAD DESIGN CHOICE tm
09:43:41  <supermop> but they have lots of these row houses that are short and narrow, but very deep
09:44:08  <supermop> the ones i've paced out are typically 8x24 paces
09:44:15  <Eddi|zuHause> well, if that's how it is, make it...
09:44:41  <supermop> well sometimes reality is not the best prototype, but i'll see how it goes
09:45:06  <supermop> you may be on to something though - perhaps distorting their proportions would help
09:45:18  <Eddi|zuHause> just be aware that making houses larger than 1x1 tile will make city construction more difficult
09:45:30  <supermop> so they are still long, but only 1:2 or 1:1.5
09:45:40  <supermop> yeah that is what i am afraid of
09:46:00  <supermop> espescially as i usually play with 'better roads'
09:46:02  <Eddi|zuHause> but also, it may provide a new look to cities
09:46:28  <Eddi|zuHause> just make sure you have enough 1x1 houses as "filling"
09:46:30  <planetmaker> Eddi|zuHause, the long side facing away from the street is not too uncommon
09:47:16  <planetmaker> and I agree. Most houses in a house set probably should be 1x1 houses
09:47:59  <supermop> at 4x zoom, a tile is 128px wide?
09:48:42  <Eddi|zuHause> the left corner and the right corner have a distance of 256px
09:49:16  <supermop> yeah, i wonder if separating the gardens etc to a separate tile would be best, so sometimes you could have a long lot, but in tight spaces just the houses alone will fit
09:49:21  <supermop> ok thanks
09:50:22  <Eddi|zuHause> yeah, i think in SC4 houses worked like that
09:55:25  <Eddi|zuHause> "Twitch wants to forbid people streaming in underwear or naked"
09:56:43  <supermop> if i wear jeans with nothing underneath, does that count as underwear

09:59:56  <planetmaker> Eddi|zuHause, that reminds me of news that some secret service agents complained about unwanted exposure to nude pictures when they hacked and "reviewed" skype video chats :P
10:01:02  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: or the other news story about how police copies naked pictures from confiscated cell phones and then trade them amongst each other?
10:05:40  <Eddi|zuHause> sometimes i wonder why there is so much fuzz about non-pornographic nakedness...
10:06:27  <Eddi|zuHause> like that guy who lost at the european court who wanted to walk naked across britain.
10:06:52  <Eddi|zuHause> i somehow doubt that would even have been on trial in germany at all...
10:08:38  <planetmaker> you don't understand that, you're from the East ;) Actually I think it might have been here, too, but not entirely sure
10:09:23  <planetmaker> The further West you go, the more prudish it gets, or so. I think
10:10:13  <supermop> yes
10:10:20  <supermop> much much worse in the us
10:10:20  <Eddi|zuHause> maybe. but there was a piece on ARTE recently where they made a trip to munich and the french part of the group was basically shocked about how they encountered people with no clothes on in the middle of the city
10:11:03  <supermop> even though in much of the us, much public nudity is actually legal, you still are likely to be arrested for it
10:11:12  <planetmaker> well, the US are ridiculous. We all know that ;)
10:11:37  <Eddi|zuHause> that's what you get when a country is founded by religious fanatics
10:11:50  <planetmaker> he, in the how-is-it-called-garden in the city centre, Eddi|zuHause ?
10:11:56  <Eddi|zuHause> there's a reason we drove those people out :p
10:12:02  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: yeah

10:12:30  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: but maybe munich doesn't really count as "west" :p
10:12:48  <planetmaker> well, I first had to move to Jena to actually see my first official nude bathing lake
10:13:05  <planetmaker> well, half of it. The other half not
10:13:27  <planetmaker> still weired if you go swimming on Sunday afternoon and you run accross your lecturer naked ;)
10:13:28  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, the nudism scene really exploded in east germany
10:13:46  <Eddi|zuHause> although i think that went back a bit after 1990
10:13:57  <planetmaker> likely, yes
10:15:46  <Eddi|zuHause> but as far as i've seen, most other countries do not have this legal split between nakedness and sexuality as is common in germany
10:24:34  <planetmaker> I was not aware that we do?
10:25:44  <planetmaker> there's "Erregung öffentlichen Ärgernisses". - Du musst erst beweisen, dass Du öffentlich erregt worden bist ;) (sorry, can't exactly translate that)
10:26:54  <planetmaker> supermop, you houses cover the whole tile(s). Is it supposed to be that tightly packed?
10:28:38  <supermop> yes, but smaller houses farther from city should have space on the sides as well
10:31:05  <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: it might not follow from the letter of the law, but it's definitely in the culture

11:17:37  *** FUZxxl [~fuz@d00m.org] has joined #openttd
11:17:38  <FUZxxl> Hello!
11:17:43  <FUZxxl> I have a question about pathfinding.
11:18:15  <planetmaker> just ask
11:19:13  <FUZxxl> I have made a few stations and pathfinding behaves weirdly around them.
11:19:38  <FUZxxl> Let me make a screenshot of one of these stations.
11:21:24  <FUZxxl> http://fuz.su/~fuz/pic/station.png
11:22:18  <FUZxxl> Sometimes, when a train tries to leave the station and the direction in which it wants to leave is occupied by another train, it instead makes a sharp bend and enters the other platform
11:22:22  <FUZxxl> which is totally pointless
11:22:38  <FUZxxl> This sometimes causes lockups that are annoying to fix.
11:22:50  <FUZxxl> Is there a solution for this problem? Is my signalling wrong?
11:23:15  <Progman> you can disable 90deg turns in the settings
11:23:30  <FUZxxl> Progman: yeah, I could, but I believe this is not a very good fix.
11:23:33  <planetmaker> the signaling looks ok. And it brings it a bit closer to the destination ;). And disable 90° turns to avoid it
11:23:50  <FUZxxl> planetmaker: So there is no real solution?
11:23:56  <planetmaker> 90° turns are ugly anyway :P. No, none I know
11:24:06  <Progman> different signals I guess
11:24:10  <planetmaker> use path signals alternatively
11:24:20  <FUZxxl> k
11:24:21  <Progman> like path signals or presignal thingy...
11:24:21  <planetmaker> not sure it would change the situation though
11:25:20  <FUZxxl> ok
11:25:34  <FUZxxl> Would it help prohibiting trains from changing directions while halting?
11:26:19  <Progman> disabling 90deg turns will help
11:26:56  <FUZxxl> ok
11:26:58  <peter1138> FUZxxl, pre-signals will never work in that situation (two-way station)
11:27:05  <Progman> or maybe remove the cross tracks entirely so one platform is always for one direction
11:27:07  <peter1138> Just use path signals.
11:30:55  *** Pereba [~UserNick@177.98.145.225] has joined #openttd
11:32:15  <peter1138> You should probably forget about using pre-signals at all, they're not useful for normal stuff since path signals arrived.
11:33:41  <supermop> ok
11:33:58  <b_jonas> I'd like a combination (path-based pre-signals)
11:34:30  <supermop> Pikka: i spent quite a bit of time on the metabolists in architecture school myself
11:35:27  <supermop> im sure ive mentioned this before, but back in '94, the first time i had a company survive long enough to see them pop up in game,
11:36:05  <supermop> i was really fascinated by the design - then blown away a few years later when i found it was a real building
11:36:21  <FUZxxl> peter1138: Path signals have the problem that a train chooses a platform when both are occupied,
11:36:24  <supermop> so TTO turned me on to the metabolists,
11:36:26  <FUZxxl> thus blocking the intersection.
11:36:40  <Pikka> good stuff :)
11:36:43  <FUZxxl> I actually prefer pre-signals right now..
11:36:49  <peter1138> FUZxxl, wrong.

11:37:11  <peter1138> FUZxxl, *pre-signals* have exactly that problem. path-signals don't have the problem.
11:37:44  <peter1138> FUZxxl, if your station is blocking with path-signals, you are not placing path-signals correctlyh.

11:43:01  <b_jonas> I've had some funny trouble with singals recently... what was it exactly?
11:43:20  <peter1138> b_jonas, sorry my crystal ball is a bit dusty
11:43:39  <b_jonas> I think I had two a line from two big coal mines to a power station, and a train went to the wrong coal mine and couldn't get out
11:43:52  <b_jonas> I don't remember how I did that
11:44:07  <peter1138> That doesn't sound like a signalling issue.
11:45:31  <FUZxxl> peter1138: Okay. Let me try with path signals.
11:45:44  <b_jonas> probably more like a railway shape issue, not with the signals
11:47:27  <b_jonas> I think the problem was that the only way for the train to get out from where it was stuck was to enter the wrong coal mine station, reverse there, then go almost to the power statoin where it can turn, and then go to the right station,
11:48:25  <b_jonas> and I think the pathfinder didn't realize this, and because I built the entry to the coal mine station wrong, it got stuck there with another train
11:50:03  <b_jonas> and I think part of the problem was that it was a double line, but some of the platforms in the station weren't connected to both lines
11:50:43  <peter1138> Bah, scummvm needs a 4x option

18:19:38  <andythenorth> cities should go more down in valleys and such mostly
18:19:53  <planetmaker> yes
18:20:06  <andythenorth> also rivers
18:20:27  <planetmaker> well.... they naturally flow downward. They need no further restriction
18:20:28  <andythenorth> did we years ago fix towns near sea?
18:20:40  <andythenorth> I seem to remember they avoided coasts, and now they don't
18:20:44  <andythenorth> but might be inventing that
18:21:07  <andythenorth> planetmaker: the suggestion was towns preferring rivers btw ;)
18:21:14  <andythenorth> rather than ‘rivers not on mountaintops'
18:21:21  <planetmaker> iirc when a random place is chosen and it's water, the nearest coast tile is searched (within a few tiles, dunno, maybe 10, 20)
18:21:34  <planetmaker> oh, towns preferring rivers. got that wrong :)
18:21:46  <planetmaker> that certainly does not happen currently
18:21:58  <planetmaker> would actually make sense same with coast
18:22:17  <andythenorth> I have quite a lot of nice coastal towns in my current game
18:22:28  <andythenorth> I’m sure I was whining about that ~5 years ago though
18:23:17  <planetmaker> maybe this search for nearby coast tiles was added then. can be :)

21:05:36  <peter1138> It fails the callback and warns the player (who is hopefully the set author...)
21:06:19  <Eddi|zuHause> fail the callback, and warn only if newgrf_developer is active?
21:06:27  <peter1138> Maybe.

21:08:03  <Eddi|zuHause> no, they're not.
21:08:11  <peter1138> andythenorth, the idea is to fix these little niggles to prevent the endless stream of "this game desyncs for no reason"

21:35:04  <andythenorth> I want multi-threaded MP3 playback
21:35:12  <andythenorth> so it’s faster

21:36:59  <Eddi|zuHause> real life cubicles!
21:37:46  <peter1138> "zomg industry generation 4096x4096 with high indstries is slow"
21:37:49  <peter1138> shocking
21:38:04  <Eddi|zuHause> peter1138: i don't think i have an opinion on the bevels
21:38:18  <andythenorth> I blame FIRS
21:38:31  <andythenorth> hmm
21:38:43  * andythenorth was talking to Australians in Brisbane at 6am UK time, and it wasn’t Pikka
21:38:46  <peter1138> I blame using a ridicuously sized map.
21:38:49  <andythenorth> maybe I could stop working now?
21:39:36  <Eddi|zuHause> peter1138: it wouldn't be ridiculous if each of the 16 cores handled a 1024x1024 corner of the map :p
21:39:41  <peter1138> Starting a new game on hm4... dunno where to start.
21:40:09  <Eddi|zuHause> why would you ever play the same map twice?
21:40:26  <andythenorth> peter1138: which GS?
21:40:31  <peter1138> None
21:40:46  <peter1138> Should I?
21:41:03  <Eddi|zuHause> no. GS are for people who cannot stick to their own rules
21:41:26  <andythenorth> or people lacking imagination
21:41:44  <andythenorth> or overly-focussed on win conditions

21:44:55  <peter1138> Hmm, that's why I can't decide where to start. It's too big.
21:45:17  <Eddi|zuHause> make it a 64x64 map
21:45:24  <peter1138> Shut it!

21:48:22  <peter1138> Which is water :D
21:48:54  <Eddi|zuHause> i think the map andy has shown has too much water in it...

21:51:02  <peter1138> If you want to use ships, you need water.
21:51:31  <andythenorth> also if you don’t want trains everywhere
21:51:35  <andythenorth> ditto

22:09:20  <peter1138> Playing that now.
22:09:23  <peter1138> Smaller.
22:09:26  <peter1138> Evidently.
22:09:31  <andythenorth> Squids?
22:10:09  <peter1138> Different algorithm too. This is using the TGP algorithm, which is kinda faster.
22:11:16  * andythenorth tests it
22:11:31  <peter1138> It's kinda bland, there's no pointy mountains.
22:12:28  <andythenorth> yup
22:12:42  <andythenorth> some maps have that jeuxneuxsayquoix
22:12:47  <andythenorth> and some aint'
22:12:58  <andythenorth> ain’t
22:13:38  <peter1138> This algorithm doesn't take 8 minutes to make a map you hate, which is good.
22:13:57  <peter1138> But it doesn't really have a concept of 'smooth'

22:22:14  <frosch123> not sure whether alt+0 was fixed
