06:00:02 *** coopdiscord has quit IRC 06:00:15 *** coopdiscord has joined #openttdcoop 06:11:29 *** Afdal has joined #openttdcoop 06:12:25 <Afdal> Hay guise, I'm looking for some inspiration on branching off a main track line into a drop station and a secondary cargo pickup station 06:12:29 <Afdal> both at the same industry 06:13:03 <Afdal> What would you say are some of the best examples of this in an openttdcoop game 06:18:52 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> typically you don't just branch off a mainline into a station 06:18:58 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> you make a hub 06:19:23 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> from that hub you pull a line to your main station 06:19:38 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> be it drop or secondary pickup 06:20:26 <Afdal> I usually avoid making hubs in the openttdcoop sense because I'm obsessed with my high-speed merges :3 06:20:39 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> a BBH too, since it'll be a high throughput line usually 06:21:03 <Afdal> My merging zones and forking zones are usually kept separate because high-speed merges take up a lot of space 06:21:49 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> you can just make two one-way hubs then 06:21:55 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> one in one out 06:22:51 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> I personally really like one-way circular networks 06:23:13 <Afdal> yeah a one-way circular network is actually what I have in mind as I'm describing what I'm looking for here 06:23:49 <Afdal> where a line splits off from the main circle to service both the cargo drop station and a secondary cargo pickup station 06:24:32 <Afdal> It turns out I actually don't do this too often--usually I just keep different types of cargo on completely separate train lines 06:25:26 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> that should be pretty comfy then 06:25:27 <Afdal> I guess I've never really come up with a satisfying way to split all those train lines and remerge them efficiently 06:25:42 <Afdal> which is why I never attempt to do it 06:26:24 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> https://wiki.openttdcoop.org/Junctionary 06:26:29 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> tons of ideas here 06:26:52 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> the list is prety outdated, but it still has nice examples 06:27:23 <Afdal> Yeah I've checked that out before 06:27:31 <Afdal> What does "SRNW" station stand for again 06:27:40 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> self regulating network 06:27:43 <Afdal> ah right 06:27:52 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> https://wiki.openttdcoop.org/Srnw 06:28:06 <Afdal> I'm thinking a combined type of station would address my issue pretty well here, but that feels like cheating :) 06:28:39 <Afdal> Specifically, one where the trains drop their junk off, refit for the other cargo type at depots, load up and leave 06:35:14 <Afdal> Oh I just realized there's a discord bot in here 06:35:18 <Afdal> pretty gross :( 06:35:25 <Afdal> thought that was the old in-game relay 06:35:42 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> some of us (me) are only on discord 06:36:00 <Afdal> you should get off Discord and come back to IRC :) 06:36:00 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> I fucking hate it tbh 06:36:07 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> i can't 06:36:14 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> discord killed all other apps 06:36:20 <Afdal> then get off it and go to Matrix -_- 06:36:26 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> my friends all use discord 06:36:36 <Afdal> Discord only has the power over you that you allow it to 06:36:48 <Afdal> Find the will, break free! 06:36:59 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> if you don't have friends you want to keep in contact with, maybe 06:37:09 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> they don't use anything else 06:37:39 <Afdal> I set down boundaries with my friends and they respect them because they enjoy my friendship 06:38:46 <Afdal> Come back to the light Clockworker -_- 06:39:23 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> none of them forced me to use the thing 06:39:41 <coopdiscord> <Clockworker> I could just not talk to them, but I want to 06:41:47 *** berndj-blackout has quit IRC 06:41:51 *** berndj has joined #openttdcoop 06:43:02 <Afdal> I notice the public server game archives end at last fall 06:43:12 <Afdal> Are you guise still playin during these dark times? 08:07:20 <coopdiscord> <happpy> afdal this discord it's the same as irc channel 08:07:24 <coopdiscord> <happpy> but beter 08:07:49 <Afdal> Pretty sure OFTC isn't a private corporation with a business model revolving around datamining ;y 08:08:37 <Afdal> Now you might make that argument about Matrix. Though even then I think it's debatable. 08:09:27 <coopdiscord> <happpy> the discord is good to have a friends list 08:14:04 *** happpy has joined #openttdcoop 08:14:04 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o happpy 08:20:13 *** Progman has joined #openttdcoop 08:39:15 *** happpy has quit IRC 08:59:16 *** happpy has joined #openttdcoop 08:59:16 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o happpy 09:11:38 *** happpy has quit IRC 10:28:51 *** happpy has joined #openttdcoop 10:28:51 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o happpy 10:47:23 *** happpy has quit IRC 11:52:51 *** happpy has joined #openttdcoop 11:52:51 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o happpy 11:57:38 *** lcd047 has joined #openttdcoop 12:20:48 *** happpy has quit IRC 12:21:45 *** happpy has joined #openttdcoop 12:21:45 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o happpy 15:46:55 *** innocenat_ has quit IRC 15:49:45 *** innocenat_ has joined #openttdcoop 17:33:40 *** lcd047 has quit IRC 18:02:44 *** b_jonas has quit IRC 18:47:43 *** happpy has quit IRC 19:41:45 *** happpy_ has joined #openttdcoop 19:41:47 *** happpy_ has left #openttdcoop 19:42:05 *** happpy has joined #openttdcoop 19:42:05 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o happpy 21:54:15 *** Dj-Wawa has quit IRC 21:54:51 *** Dj-Wawa has joined #openttdcoop 21:57:12 *** Dj-Wawa has quit IRC 21:57:45 *** Dj-Wawa has joined #openttdcoop 22:29:48 *** happpy has quit IRC
