09:44:00  <V453000> yeah but seeing the wall of tasks is a bit intimidating :d
09:45:00  <Alberth> hmm :)
09:45:18  <Alberth> at work I have a list of several hundred things :p
09:45:32  <Alberth> I don't pay much attention to it :p
09:45:47  <V453000> :D
09:49:48  <Alberth> just pick anything on the list, and do it, until you run out of things :)
09:50:07  <V453000> that is what I am doing so far
09:50:39  <Alberth> the list is mostly for keeping related stuff together, and not forgetting things
09:51:31  <Alberth> a bit of dependency ordering can be useful too, but that's about it, imho
09:52:15  <Alberth> the site seems more for discussing and organizing, ie communication between people
09:52:32  <Alberth> which is not very relevant if there is only one person involved :p
09:54:52  <Alberth> at work, I use it as memory. Some issues are years old, but if anyone needs to know about it, I can dig up the ticket, read it, and tell everything I know
09:55:36  <Alberth> these are typicially edge cases that you will only encounter if you construct it.
09:58:13  <V453000> yeah

11:13:39  <Wolf01> http://factorioforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=18621 whoa, that's nice, i've never thought about roundabouts for train junctions
11:15:06  <Wolf01> also i need to redesign all my rails because i'm stupid
11:15:18  <Wolf01> factorio != ottd
11:16:09  <argoneus> good morning train friends
11:16:19  *** sla_ro|master [slamaster@82.210.156.68] has joined #openttd
11:17:27  <argoneus> path signals for factorio when
11:21:20  <V453000> I didnt read it but chain signals solve all your problems :P and roundabouts are super bad
11:21:58  <V453000> afaik chain signals kind of already do work like path signals argoneus
11:22:15  *** Kurimus [~stabbity@dsl-tkubrasgw2-54f816-197.dhcp.inet.fi] has joined #openttd
11:22:23  <Wolf01> every junction is super bad if you have more trains than the safe waiting areas
11:22:23  <argoneus> wut?
11:22:28  <argoneus> aren't they like entry/exit signals?
11:22:31  <argoneus> that's what I thought they were
11:22:48  <V453000> they are but they also do work like path signals
11:22:52  <argoneus> ah yeah
11:22:59  <argoneus> you can use entry/exit signals to get the path signal effect
11:23:03  <argoneus> except having two trains in the same block
11:23:04  <Flygon_> Wolf01: I was half-expecting pictures of rail crossings THROUGh roundabouts
11:23:04  <V453000> no
11:23:05  <argoneus> right
11:23:24  <argoneus> they don't lookahead
11:23:27  <argoneus> but they pick the right routes
11:23:29  <argoneus> shrug
11:23:34  <V453000> it has nothing to do with the "pre-signal" functionality ... they simply care about paths
11:23:44  <Flygon_> http://gokml.net/maps#ll=-37.919414,-215.006468&z=19&t=h As depicted
11:23:46  *** Flygon_ is now known as Flygon
11:23:47  <argoneus> wait
11:23:49  <argoneus> so it's not "like"
11:23:55  <argoneus> the chain signals already work with paths, not blocks?
11:24:16  <V453000> just try it...

11:24:37  <argoneus> I don't have a save with trains atm
11:24:37  *** sla_ro|master [slamaster@82.210.156.68] has quit []
11:24:42  <argoneus> but I'll believe you
11:27:05  *** sla_ro|master [slamaster@82.210.156.68] has joined #openttd
11:27:14  <argoneus> also why are people so obsessed with train roundabouts?
11:27:26  <V453000> because they are primitive to build
11:27:28  <argoneus> have you ever seen a train roundabout irl
11:27:38  <argoneus> there's a reason for it, trains aren't cars
11:27:44  <V453000> needs no logic, you just consistently connect things to a loop
11:28:06  <V453000> I cant think of a simpler solution either
11:28:27  <V453000> and with the precedenting example of car roundabout it is clear where are people coming from :)
11:28:30  <argoneus> just ghetto connect it
11:28:41  <Wolf01> on a city near mine they are planning a double roundabout with a railway which passes through one of them, now i understand where they got the idea
11:28:48  <argoneus> idk
11:28:55  <argoneus> not sure if it's just me
11:28:57  <Flygon> argoneus: Train cloverloops don't exist IRL
11:29:01  <Flygon> But we still build them
11:29:03  <argoneus> but roundabouts don't look deadlock-proof
11:29:05  <Flygon> Because they WORK within the games
11:29:28  <V453000> Flygon: yeah they dont
11:29:36  <Flygon> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2651992/Art/Other/openttdnoweavingcloverleaf.png This works :U
11:30:04  <argoneus> it's also huge
11:30:07  <V453000> only lesser knowledge or ignorance can make you say that
11:30:08  <Flygon> True
11:30:21  <Flygon> V453000: My OTTD games run near entirely on ignorance
11:30:56  <V453000> then "it works" has very little value or relevance to "is a good solution"
11:31:13  <Flygon> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2651992/Art/Other/ottdroroterminus.png RoRo fudgery, brought to you by ignorance
11:31:43  <Flygon> The four-to-one merge I never bothered to fix from being a pinch point
11:31:58  <V453000> yes excellent
11:31:59  <V453000> im off
11:32:05  <argoneus> well I mean
11:32:07  <Flygon> See ya
11:32:08  <argoneus> it seems like it works
11:32:22  <argoneus> the clover thing seems functional too
11:32:25  *** sla_ro|master [slamaster@82.210.156.68] has quit []
11:32:25  <argoneus> but it's wayyy too large
11:32:30  <Flygon> Yeah
11:32:40  <Flygon> In a tigther space, I'd be utterly stuffed
11:32:45  <Flygon> And would need to become more creative
11:32:53  <Flygon> But, in most circumstances where space is an issue
11:32:55  <Flygon> Speed ISN'T
11:33:07  <argoneus> all you need to do is connect each input to each output without tangling
11:33:11  <Flygon> So, you can crap out a smaller interchange without as much harm because stuff's going slow anyway
11:33:27  <Flygon> But, I also play with trying to make things pretty, so... keep that in mind
11:34:09  <Wolf01> it's nice that if you search for train junctions on google you'll find almost all ottd results
11:34:10  <Flygon> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2651992/Art/Other/ottdquadcomplete.png And some of my lines can be ridiculously stupid
11:35:02  <argoneus> this confuses me
11:35:14  <Flygon> Yeah, see what I mean? I just broke your brain :D
11:35:19  <Flygon> But, it goddamn worked :D
11:35:25  <Flygon> Uhm
11:35:29  <Flygon> Don't ask about the ships
11:35:34  <Flygon> I don't even know why the ships
11:36:10  <Wolf01> but some of our junctions may exists irl: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_junction
11:36:23  <Flygon> I do note
11:36:29  <Flygon> I would NEVER build the cloverleaf I showed
11:36:36  <Flygon> If OpenTTD had more flexible tunneling and viaduct tools

11:36:48  <Flygon> Having Cities Skylines style underground tools in OTTD would be amazing
11:37:22  <Flygon> Then I could have the same end result as my cloverleaf
11:37:27  <Flygon> Without the ridiculous land requirements

11:40:29  <Flygon> Even worse, I tore it off an IRL road junction that hit the same issue I did
11:40:30  <Flygon> (Space)
11:40:48  <Flygon> http://gokml.net/maps#ll=-37.684903,-215.081902&z=18&t=h This one

11:43:04  <Wolf01> i really like your track building style
11:43:20  <Flygon> Huh? O_o
11:43:33  <Flygon> I'd post screenshots
11:43:47  <Flygon> But I always felt that my style was too sterile to poston forums
11:44:58  <Flygon> (with the 'regretted' junction, I did try to alleviate it by having the empty coal train floor it as fast as possible downhill to minimize impact)
11:45:21  <argoneus> I can't sight read your designs quickly
11:45:28  <argoneus> I'm like "ok so the trains come here, wait what"
11:45:31  <argoneus> :D
11:45:59  <Flygon> argoneus: It WORKED
11:46:01  <Flygon> Trust me :D
11:50:47  <Flygon> Wolf01: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2651992/Art/Other/icelandgamev2reykjavikregion1926.png Another screenshot I like
11:51:13  <Flygon> Tho, note one of the Eastern track pairs from Reykjavik is not in commission yet
11:51:16  <Flygon> Hence the lack of signals
11:53:14  <Flygon> I presume argoneus will understand this track system easier :3
11:54:50  <Wolf01> did you manage to make them profitable?
11:55:20  <Flygon> 'course
11:55:27  <Flygon> Can't build this without $$$
11:55:30  <Flygon> And I didn't cheat <_>
11:55:50  <Flygon> Oil and Coal sustained the game very sturdily

12:01:38  <Flygon> (yes, that's FIVE Tauros's on the Oil train. I needed something with enough tractive effort to replace the triple headed Big Boys. But nothing existed in the GRF. They didn't accelerate as quickly, but, they eventually got fast enough)

12:05:32  <Flygon> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2651992/Art/Other/england1921london.png I should redo this game so that it's... less bad
12:08:57  <Flygon> Shame I lost most of my old OTTD saves
12:09:02  <Flygon> I assumed they were in the OpenTTD folder
12:09:09  <Flygon> But they were in My Documents
12:09:17  <Flygon> Which I wiped because I reinstalled Windows
12:09:27  <Flygon> I thought they wouldn't be in there because, genuinely

12:59:15  <Flygon> http://gokml.net/maps#ll=-37.702908,-214.817347&z=15&t=h Remember that Melbourne has a suburb somehow called Research
13:00:52  <Wolf01> that is what happen when you let Aussies give names... Mt. Disappointment anyone?
13:02:40  <Flygon> "The unusual name arose from the gold rush era in Victoria, during the mid 19th century. Research was then known as Swiper's Gully, but gold was found after the area was re-searched. Swiper's Gully then became Research Gully, and finally, late in the 19th century, abbreviated to Research."

16:18:29  <Alberth> editing is not the problem, loading it back in afterwards is the challenge :p

16:19:37  <Alberth> you may have better luck fixing things in afterload code

17:00:30  <Alberth> o/
17:01:53  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: you probably can't know what type of industry it is, and distinguishing cargos is tricky as well
17:02:30  <Alberth> https://nogo.openttd.org/api/trunk/classGSIndustryType.html#e3b56889b44ffefd3e753cdc751cf02c
17:03:17  <andythenorth> I have a FIRS economy where about half the types are missing at map gen
17:03:23  <andythenorth> and the goal is to build them
17:03:50  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: i think that checks whether manual construction is enabled
17:04:33  <Alberth> "If no valid GSCompanyMode active in scope, the script can build as long as the industry type can be built."
17:04:56  <Eddi|zuHause> that sentence makes no sense
17:05:10  <Alberth> you don't see an industry as a type, but as a thing producing cargoes X and Y
17:05:12  <Eddi|zuHause> but i presume it doesn't actually test the construction callback of the GRF
17:05:32  <Alberth> you can't do that other than by building
17:05:34  <Eddi|zuHause> as that would imply having a location, etc.
17:05:46  <Alberth> such joy, this newgrf stuff :p
17:06:09  <Eddi|zuHause> so you can't actually use this for "is this missing at map gen?"

17:09:30  <alluke> christmas
17:10:02  <Alberth> it's possible it does something else
17:10:44  <Alberth> but it seems the closest thing inexistence for what andy wants, imho
17:11:18  <andythenorth> it would probably be sufficient to count each type
17:11:24  <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: i'm still of the opinion that this does nothing like what andythenorth wants
17:11:38  <andythenorth> and try to build some that are substantially under-represented on the map
17:11:50  <alluke> what christmas grfs there is
17:11:50  <andythenorth> but there’s no point setting goals for types that are unavailable :P
17:12:19  <alluke> other than the tree
17:12:31  <andythenorth> in fact, player building industries is not very interesting
17:12:38  <Eddi|zuHause> alluke: some grf replaced statues with christmas trees
17:12:47  <alluke> i know that one
17:12:49  <andythenorth> better to let the GS just go on a building spree
17:13:04  <andythenorth> possibly meeting goals xyz triggers more
17:13:06  <Alberth> and of course all the newgrfs you made for the occasion
17:13:10  <andythenorth> it’s similar to a suggestion by frosch123
17:13:34  <Eddi|zuHause> alluke: well, toyland is mildly christmas related
17:13:45  <alluke> thats too much :P
17:13:58  <alluke> i like to keep it real

17:21:51  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: and if you want to construct new industries, try all of the "0" category first, and when none succeed, try the other ones?
17:22:06  <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: I think something like that would work

21:01:38  <Eddi|zuHause> doesn't sound like a movie anyone should watch...
21:02:22  <alluke> very mind-expanding movie
21:02:29  <alluke> i warmly recommed it
21:21:59  * andythenorth is drawing a copper sludge sedimentation tank
21:22:00  <andythenorth> http://g02.s.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1PvOQHXXXXXbyaXXXq6xXFXXX5/200725981/HTB1PvOQHXXXXXbyaXXXq6xXFXXX5.jpg
21:22:18  <andythenorth> should I use normal blue for the water?
21:22:32  <andythenorth> or something darker, but less obviously water?
21:25:29  <Eddi|zuHause> use darker, but sprinkle in some flashing water pixels?
21:28:06  * andythenorth tries it
21:31:23  <andythenorth> the water in those probably rotates
21:31:31  * andythenorth does not fancy animating that :
21:31:32  <andythenorth> :P

22:36:41  <mikehg_> Hi - I'm trying to run on a Chromebook, using Crouton / Debian 8. Unfortunately it doesn't have a 'Del' key, so I'm trying to rebind.
22:37:39  <mikehg_> Does anyone know what I should put in hotkeys.cfg? I've tried obvious things like 'delete_windows = SPACE' or '... BACKSPACE' but they just get blanked if I run the game.

23:13:29  <mikehg_> OK, so I stole 'V' from 'new viewport' and that worked. Still, does seem odd that both 'SPACE' and 'BACKSPACE' don't work. Ho hum, sorry for the noise...

23:29:55  <Eddi|zuHause> mikehg_: these are the keys that it understands: http://git.openttd.org/?p=trunk.git;a=blob;f=src/hotkeys.cpp;h=84288a0e8148c3c0126142dfa7d3bd41597225fa;hb=HEAD#l36
23:31:00  <Eddi|zuHause> space is sort of hardcoded to "close newspapers"
23:34:51  <mikehg_> Eddi|zuHause: thanks - that's a useful reference. It doesn't really matter, of course, you can get used to anything - I just thought I was probably doing something else wrong when neither worked. Cheers.
23:43:39  <Eddi|zuHause> mikehg_: well you're free to open a ticket if you feel like a certain key should be supported
23:44:13  <Eddi|zuHause> also, there should probably be a wiki page containing this info...
