16:43:59  <supermop> interesting thematically, andythenorth , but I wouldn't be too constrained by it.
16:44:55  <supermop> and of course it should be possible to play a tropic firs game with alpine vehicles, or similar
16:45:56  <supermop> off to go stand in line for a chance to buy some kanye shoes for a friends friend... not the most fun way to spend an afternoon

18:03:49  <andythenorth> have a crash log https://paste.openttdcoop.org/pvmoh97km
18:03:51  <andythenorth> it’s free
18:04:47  <andythenorth> I’ve seen this before, happens in the industry chain window, when selecting the ‘select industry’ dropdown
18:05:00  <andythenorth> not reproducible reliably
18:07:06  <Eddi|zuHause> try reproducing it in an unmodified version, and provide a crash dump?
18:09:01  <Alberth> looks scrollbar-ish ?   capacity at least sounds related, didn't check the line number
18:10:16  <andythenorth> it’s triggered by mouse event on the dropdown, at least, that’s the action I perform
18:10:38  <andythenorth> yeah, it’s a patched OpenTTD, I removed the tropic landscape generator in favour of temperate
18:11:22  <Alberth> capacity == 0 would also trigger it, empty list or so?
18:12:03  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: it's probably not your modification that's causing it, but providing a crash dump only really helps if the other person has the exact same code.
18:12:26  <Eddi|zuHause> also, operating system...
18:12:58  <andythenorth> understood, but I think it’s low chance of reproduction anyway :P

22:10:00  <_dp_> hi, is there some way to scroll user's view from gs?
22:10:19  <_dp_> or at least determine where it will be when he joins server
22:15:29  <Eddi|zuHause> view position is part of the savegame that gets transmitted. so if you adjust the "view" of the server (with the "scrollto" command), that will be what the user sees when joining
22:18:06  <Eddi|zuHause> the position set this way is the top left corner of the screen. you cannot "center" the screen since you don't know the resolution of the user

23:00:30  <_dp_> hm, I'll try it, ty
23:00:49  <_dp_> corner is kinda weird thing to save though imo
23:02:35  <Eddi|zuHause> it's just what it always was, and there was never enough reason to change
23:10:01  <_dp_> I'd assume that people are usually looking at center of the screen not corner

23:10:37  <argoneus> heard*
23:13:36  <Eddi|zuHause> _dp_: sure, but realize that a) when the game was released 20 years ago, it came only in one resolution, and b) most individual people only play with the same resolution, so they hardly ever notice the system behind it
23:14:15  <Eddi|zuHause> there are two main cases where it comes up: 1) the title screen competitions, and 2) making a scenario where the introduction screen matters
23:14:53  <Eddi|zuHause> an example for 2) is the USA scenario, which starts out in the sea off the east coast, with instructions to scroll west

23:17:29  <_dp_> I was thinking of centering players on their town in cb
23:18:00  <_dp_> still can assume that they have at least 1000x750 or smth but centering would be better
23:18:07  <Eddi|zuHause> that's not really going to work
23:19:02  <_dp_> what do you mean?
23:19:15  <Eddi|zuHause> you'd have to intercept the join package, and quickly scroll to the location before the network savegame gets made
23:19:43  <_dp_> Ye, no big deal
23:19:53  <_dp_> intercepting enough packets already :p
23:20:16  <_dp_> also can patch saving code
23:20:18  <Eddi|zuHause> then assume a minimum resolution of 640x480
23:22:29  <_dp_> if I center it for 1000x750 it will still be on screen for 640x480 so that's fine
23:24:52  <_dp_> there is another issue though
23:25:56  <_dp_> was thinking of automatically claiming some town when player starts company, but that wouldn't work if he joins as spectator first
23:27:37  <Eddi|zuHause> you could react to the company creation packet then?
23:28:01  <Eddi|zuHause> there is definitely an interface for presenting dialog boxes
23:28:29  <_dp_> but can't scroll viewport since savegame is already loaded
23:28:38  <_dp_> can dialog box scroll view?
23:29:06  <Eddi|zuHause> i don't know. you could place the HQ and make the player click the "view HQ" button?
23:29:18  <Eddi|zuHause> there might be something more specific about this that i don't know
23:29:18  <_dp_> btw, is there a way to show standard error window? that small read one
23:29:38  <Eddi|zuHause> no idea
23:30:25  <_dp_> haha, main cause I'm doing it is for players that don't know where "place hq" button is, and "view hq" is the same one xD
23:30:50  <Eddi|zuHause> _dp_: tried checking how the tutorial script does it?
23:31:20  <_dp_> no, didn't even know there is such script)
23:31:32  <_dp_> learned to play in 1995 xD
23:34:46  <_dp_> hm, how to select script from online content? I only see local ones
23:35:42  <Eddi|zuHause> what do you mean?
