12:20:56  <andythenorth> Hi FooBar
12:21:01  <andythenorth> how are you?
12:21:01  <FooBar> hi andy
12:21:06  <FooBar> I'm fine, thank you
12:21:32  <FooBar> so, what you wanted to talk about?
12:22:04  * andythenorth has some connectivity troubles - in case I go away unexpectedly!
12:22:23  <FooBar> still?
12:22:36  <andythenorth> still building a house...
12:22:45  <andythenorth> we'll get new broadband soon
12:22:53  <FooBar> ah, well carry on :)
12:23:04  <andythenorth> I tried a mobile broadband dongle but it just killed my mac
12:23:20  <andythenorth> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/issues/696
12:23:25  <FooBar> that sucks. But then those dongles suck as wel...
12:23:30  * FooBar clicks link
12:23:45  <andythenorth> also hg pull if you haven't recently
12:24:07  <FooBar> That would require me to set up my development stuff...
12:24:11  <andythenorth> also that ticket is now out of date
12:24:17  <andythenorth> ok don't pull :)
12:24:31  <FooBar> I recently installed Win7, but haven't gotten around setting everything up yet
12:24:48  <FooBar> I'm surprised IRC works :P
12:25:38  <FooBar> Anyways, I'm not opposed nor against such an economy feature
12:27:40  <Ammler> Hello FooBar :-) (just like to say "hello", no more)
12:27:54  <FooBar> Hi Ammler!
12:28:43  <FooBar> Oh, by the way Ammler, is my bouncer still active? You emailed me about that a while ago; I did email back some time but missed any further reply...
12:28:58  <Ammler> hmm, I didn't replay?
12:29:00  *** andythenorth_ has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
12:29:11  <FooBar> Dunno, maybe I missed it...
12:29:15  <Ammler> I removed your account, but we still use the bouncer
12:29:26  <Ammler> so if you like to use it again, just ping.
12:29:29  *** PeterT has quit IRC
12:29:32  * andythenorth_ back
12:29:39  <FooBar> Ah, good. That's probably why I couldn't log in just now :P
12:29:59  <FooBar> Just keep it removed. Maybe when I get on IRC more often it might be useful to get it back
12:30:40  <FooBar> andythenorth, you got my :
12:30:42  <FooBar> [13:24]	<FooBar>	I recently installed Win7, but haven't gotten around setting everything up yet
12:30:44  <FooBar> [13:24]	<FooBar>	I'm surprised IRC works :P
12:30:45  <FooBar> [13:25]	<FooBar>	Anyways, I'm not opposed nor against such an economy feature
12:30:47  <FooBar> ?
12:30:57  <andythenorth_> FooBar: ok so FIRS...the plan is that one parameter controls economy.
12:31:13  *** PeterT has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
12:31:14  <andythenorth_> economy sets available cargos, payment rates, available industry types, probability in game
12:31:37  <andythenorth_> all config is via text files, and (very occasionally an action 7)
12:31:49  <FooBar> also the availability of stuff?
12:31:58  <FooBar> not just how expensive things are?
12:32:01  <andythenorth_> yes
12:32:18  *** andythenorth has quit IRC
12:32:30  <andythenorth_> ^ ignore that
12:32:35  <FooBar> right
12:32:35  <andythenorth_> I'm stil here
12:32:49  <FooBar> I was waiting for you to come back on, to be honest :P
12:32:58  <andythenorth_> I have two things in mind to balance:
12:33:21  <andythenorth_> making it easy for players to setup an interesting game (and protecting them from bad combinations of choices)
12:33:29  <andythenorth_> (that was 1.)
12:33:37  <FooBar> that's useful
12:33:43  <andythenorth_> 2. protecting us from nightmare code and unhelpful bug reports
12:33:50  <FooBar> that's useful as well
12:34:02  <andythenorth_> plus I think it will make sense
12:34:22  <andythenorth_> so a 'mining economy' has a lot of mine orientated industries and cargos, fewer agriculture
12:35:04  <andythenorth_> the 'coastal' economy has more focus on industries related to the sea, and a smaller mix of other types
12:35:06  <FooBar> Ah, so basically there's different flavours to choose from?
12:35:13  <andythenorth_> there will be a 'FIRS extreme' for people like Neko
12:35:16  <andythenorth_> yes
12:35:43  <andythenorth_> the original game provides this through the climates.
12:36:16  <andythenorth_> the climates aren't enough for FIRS, plus for me the climates are more just a choice of what colour tiles I want to look at for 10 hours
12:36:19  <andythenorth_> and how towns grow
12:36:45  <FooBar> exactly, that applies to me as well. I usually pick 'temperate' as I think that looks better
12:37:23  <andythenorth_> I'm updating the FIRS website, it will feature example economies
12:37:35  <FooBar> You have my vote on such a setup of economies
12:37:50  <andythenorth_> the other nice aspect is we can release a new 'economy' every so often.  'New' keeps people playing imo.
12:38:15  <andythenorth_> great
12:38:22  <andythenorth_> just so you know where it's going :)
12:38:33  <FooBar> I like the sound of it, so let's go for it.
12:40:09  <FooBar> There probably must be a 'default' economy with industries close to the original TTD ones, but still with the spirit of FIRS in it. And then we can have things like the 'mining', 'coastal', etc economies
12:40:34  <andythenorth_> btw, are you busy for the forseeable future
12:40:34  <andythenorth_> ?
12:40:55  <FooBar> I have exams the next three weeks or so.
12:41:01  <FooBar> So yes, I'm kinda busy
12:41:04  <andythenorth_> FooBar: there'll be a FIRS basic (1) which will be closer to my taste and less default.  There can easily be a FIRS basic (2) if needed.  I'm not sure which will end up as default without parameters set
12:41:09  <andythenorth_> ok good luck with exams :)
12:41:17  <FooBar> After that, I /hope/ to be less busy, but no guarantees :)
12:42:22  <FooBar> Well, what I meant to illustrate is that the default must be easy for people coming from default TTD to understand. It needn't be exactly the same (as there's no point in that), but it needs to have similarities
12:42:49  <FooBar> With similar complexity of chains and the like.
12:43:05  <FooBar> More complex chains can be in different economies
12:44:02  <FooBar> We also should have a five-star difficulty rating for each economy. With the default (whatever that ends up to be) having just one star and the full thing with everything enabled having all five stars :P
12:44:32  <FooBar> Just spawning some ideas ;)
12:45:24  <FooBar> If you don't mind, I'm going to have breakfast and lunch right now. I'll be back in like 15 minutes or so.
12:45:49  <andythenorth_> ok
12:51:43  <Ammler> breakfast and lunch in 15 mins, not healthy
12:58:39  *** Chris_Booth has quit IRC
13:06:43  <FooBar> back
13:07:15  <FooBar> alright, 20 mins then :P
13:12:01  <FooBar> Oh, andythenorth_, if we're to do these different economies, I'm in favour of dropping possible compatibility with other industry sets until further notice and only provide some sort of framework+documentation to allow add-ons.
13:12:16  <andythenorth_> that makes sense
13:12:37  <FooBar> For some simple industry sets it might be possible to combine them with FIRS, but large things will get way too complicated IMO
13:13:05  <FooBar> Ofcourse, compatibility with NARS  and other regearing trainsets should remain.
13:13:18  <andythenorth_> Yes
13:24:25  <Ammler> If I may, you should add a "debug" switch to be able to skip such tests for testing ;-)
13:25:41  <andythenorth_> Ammler: FooBar I am thinking a debug parameter is pretty essential
13:25:52  <andythenorth_> the debug text I use in the industry window is vital
13:26:21  <andythenorth_> that kind of thing planetmaker is very good at helping with...
13:26:29  <andythenorth_> meanwhile, I've updated the FIRS site
13:26:30  <andythenorth_> http://tt-foundry.com/sets/FIRS/schema/industries
13:26:32  <Webster> Title: TT Foundry: Pixel Creations for Open Transport Tycoon (at tt-foundry.com)
13:26:36  <andythenorth_> it's much closer to something useful
13:27:21  <FooBar> nice job on the website!
13:28:30  <andythenorth_> there's more to do, but I think it will be the best way to explain the economies concept
13:29:54  <FooBar> and yes, such a debug parameter setting would be useful as some sort of override
13:30:30  <andythenorth_> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=41607&start=1160
13:30:32  <Webster> Title: Transport Tycoon Forums • View topic - FIRS Industry Replacement Set - Development (at www.tt-forums.net)
13:30:36  <andythenorth_> el koeno just made a useful suggestion
13:30:53  <Ammler> hmm, maybe just create a debug grf with make
13:31:26  <andythenorth_> Ammler: that doesn't cover the case where a bug is seen while playing a game
13:31:37  <Ammler> then you load the debug grf
13:31:46  <Ammler> it should be compatible
13:31:50  <Ammler> just more output
13:31:50  <andythenorth_> loading a different grf can be massively unreliable with industries
13:32:03  <Ammler> hmm, then it isn't a debug grf
13:32:13  <andythenorth_> I think a debug switch will cover it
13:32:36  <andythenorth_> for my purposes it will run when the text cb runs
13:32:43  <andythenorth_> which is going to be sensitive to a parameter
13:32:46  <andythenorth_> (I hope)!
13:33:13  <Ammler> I just mean, the debug part could get complicated with nfo...
13:33:47  <andythenorth_> Ammler: no in my case, the debug code will run all the time anyway.  'debug' just means the values get printed to the screen
13:34:00  <andythenorth_> it will be negligible extra cpu
13:34:31  <andythenorth_> anyway, el koeno suggests that 'old industries' might just be left to close because players prefer to service new, more exciting version
13:34:37  <andythenorth_> I think there's something in that.
13:34:38  <FooBar> el koeno indeed is on to something there. "old" industries will just not hatch after a certain date and will kill themselves off automatically if no cargo is delivered. "new" industries will hatch after a certain year and users can either decide to stick to the old ones or reroute to the new ones.
13:35:06  <andythenorth_> the only thing is...we said several times, "secondary industries don't close (much)"
13:35:34  <andythenorth_> I can think of several solutions to that
13:35:43  <FooBar> Well, maybe we must unsay that then :P
13:35:57  <FooBar> Maybe it's possible to grant 'unusedl
13:35:59  <FooBar> crap
13:36:01  <andythenorth_> or allow closing after a certain date if unserviced
13:36:04  <FooBar> pressed enter too early...
13:36:09  <andythenorth_> :D
13:36:36  <andythenorth_> or allow closing after a minimum number of years unserviced (like, quite a large number of years)
13:36:45  <FooBar> Anyways, was saying that it might be possible to grant 'unused' industries a longer period before shutdown than industries that aren't served any more
13:37:27  <andythenorth_> well it's possible to store in a register when cargo was last delivered
13:37:27  <andythenorth_> we'll be doing that for a lot of industries anyway
13:38:16  <Ammler> they should stay at least 10 years or so
13:38:18  <FooBar> In that case we might be able to hook into that information
13:39:10  <Ammler> nobody complains about why power plant never expires
13:39:31  <FooBar> I hate that powerplants never expire...
13:39:35  <FooBar> :P
13:39:41  <andythenorth_> the powerplant in FIRS *will* expire
13:40:05  <FooBar> Maybe easier: if after certain date, then closedownperiod is 5 years, if not, then closedown period is 15 years.
13:40:08  <Ammler> FooBar: magic bulldozer ;-)
13:40:22  <andythenorth_> closure should be based on time unserviced then, not on quality of service (as it is now)
13:40:22  <FooBar> I hate that magic bulldozer...
13:40:24  <FooBar> :P
13:40:37  <andythenorth_> hmm no
13:40:46  <FooBar> Is it based on QoS now?
13:40:50  <andythenorth_> if an industry has poor service, it should still close
13:41:00  <andythenorth_> FooBar: let me find the specs...
13:41:09  <FooBar> don't bugger
13:41:17  <FooBar> just a yes or no is sufficient :P
13:42:00  <andythenorth_> http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php?page=Callbacks#Random_production_change_29_
13:42:43  <andythenorth_> I don't actually know how the internals of the production change work.  I don't really care :)  let the players figure that out :)
13:43:21  <FooBar> heh
13:43:53  <andythenorth_> in other FIRS news....Yexo has been working on new airports, which we need if we are to avoid certain sucky situations with water industries
13:44:15  <Ammler> oh, personally, I love the complecitiy of ECS or the "planned" FIRS
13:44:38  <andythenorth_> Ammler: you can quality check FIRS Extreme then :)
13:44:42  <Ammler> I wouldn't play ECS with parameter 15 in s SP
13:44:57  <FooBar> what does 15 do?
13:45:07  <Ammler> disable all callback things
13:45:11  <Ammler> closing etc.
13:45:30  <Ammler> we use that for coop game
13:45:31  <FooBar> ah, that will leave a mess...
13:45:58  <andythenorth_> planetmaker also suggested a FIRS parameter for 'scenario mode' - no building new industries
13:46:23  <andythenorth_> This is the problem with water stations right now: http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=845119#p845119
13:46:24  <Webster> Title: Transport Tycoon Forums • View topic - NFO: Industry on water -> with station? (at www.tt-forums.net)
13:46:27  <Ammler> better would be predefined places ;-)
13:46:49  <andythenorth_> Ammler: that could in theory be done - in a scenario
13:46:59  <andythenorth_> I know exactly how to code for that.
13:52:43  <Ammler> you can code industries to appear only on e.g. south east region only?
13:52:46  <andythenorth_> nope
13:53:14  <andythenorth_> what you request is similar to the survey camp role
13:53:31  <andythenorth_> so place something like the survey camp in a scenario, then make industries locate near it
13:53:55  <andythenorth_> to support different types of industries, multiple survey camp types are needed!
13:54:00  <andythenorth_> :o
13:54:12  <andythenorth_> or we could do a hack using industry layouts
13:54:13  <Ammler> but sounds cool
13:54:53  <andythenorth_> the layouts thing is barely a hack, it's actually fully supported, but I don't know how to build a specific layout in the scenario generator (except by build-demolish until you get the layout wanted)
13:55:11  <andythenorth_> (um...fully supported by nfo, not FIRS )
13:58:27  <andythenorth_> I'm going to setup a couple more economies to prove the concept.   Um, watch this channel
13:58:53  <andythenorth_> also, there might be some 'easter egg' industries, but I can't decide whether to keep them secret
14:19:23  <Ammler> :-)
14:19:37  <Ammler> quite hard on a opensource project :-P
14:20:15  <Ammler> well, a lot people never will follow the development but might use the release

14:48:58  <andythenorth_> this kind of shows what I have in mind
14:49:11  <andythenorth_> the presentation could be better...it's all just words at the moment
14:50:49  *** andythenorth has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
14:55:21  <andythenorth> FooBar: I also think I know how to handle industry closure
14:57:13  *** andythenorth_ has quit IRC
14:57:24  <FooBar> good for you :P
14:57:50  <FooBar> anyhoe, I think that economy idea would work quite well indeed
14:59:34  <Ammler> shouldn't you mainly drop the default industries from basic
15:01:49  <Ammler> and maybe a FIRS type, which uses the default cargos only.
15:03:10  <andythenorth> Ammler: you would rather see even fewer default industries?
15:03:28  <Ammler> for the basic set, yes.
15:03:49  <andythenorth> Suggestions?  It's quite easy to actually build and try :)
15:04:17  <Ammler> no steel, no grain
15:04:52  <Ammler> and the industries to it
15:05:21  <andythenorth> :o
15:05:24  <Ammler> best would be no default at all, but that might not be possible :-)
15:05:30  * andythenorth is shocked by Ammler's radical ideas :)
15:05:54  <andythenorth> Ammler is a punk
15:06:37  <andythenorth> Ammler get me a list somehow of cargos and industries and we can try it?
15:06:52  <Ammler> the other idea is to use only cargos from default and the industries to it
15:07:22  <Ammler> so this basic set would be compatible to all newgrfs
15:07:44  <andythenorth> All can be tried.  The only costs are: time to check we didn't break chains, and possible confusion for players.
15:08:27  <Ammler> for me it is hard to decide/suggest such things, I depend on 2 different views
15:08:44  <Ammler> my personal SP and the #openttdcoop view
15:08:45  <andythenorth> Ammler: give me a few minutes.  I'll make "FIRS Extreme" and then you can copy and paste the cargos and industries, then edit a list for me?
15:09:37  <Ammler> for openttdcoop, we once made a game with all ECS, but parameter 15
15:09:44  <andythenorth> http://tt-foundry.com/sets/FIRS/schema/economies#everything
15:09:45  <Webster> Title: TT Foundry: Pixel Creations for Open Transport Tycoon (at tt-foundry.com)
15:09:56  <Ammler> so from 150 games, around 10 games are with new industries
15:10:43  <andythenorth> quite a small ratio
15:11:02  <Ammler> yes, maybe 2 ECS and 5 PBI
15:11:09  <Ammler> and 3 alpine
15:11:31  <Ammler> well, I wild guess
15:11:39  <Ammler> a*
15:12:24  <Ammler> "we" decided that newindustries aren't useable for us.
15:14:05  <Ammler> andythenorth: did you read about George who told about automatic "filter" for cargos?
15:14:26  <andythenorth> yes.  It appears to work - I tested it.
15:14:41  <andythenorth> so I'm not concerned about that
15:15:15  *** DJNekkid has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
15:15:18  <Ammler> so you can basically include all industries and just make a parameter filter for cargos?
15:17:29  <andythenorth> Ammler: maybe.  I don't know if that's the best situation.  Also, the code might work, but cargo chains could be broken...
15:20:00  <Ammler> as you don't have a release yet, you shoudn't/can't mark industries/cargos as depreciated ;-)
15:20:54  <Ammler> !s/mark/flag/ (sorry for highlight :-P
15:20:56  <andythenorth> yes...I should tidy that up somehow.
15:22:10  <FooBar> I think action7-ing unused industries might be best. Having them 'hidden' might imply the possibility to change the setting in a running game, which I don't want to support
15:23:03  <andythenorth> I agree with FooBar they would be action 7-ed

15:28:33  <FooBar> I'd plug it onto the 2CC set. That's a really nice codebase (which you need anyways). And ofcourse releasing the 32bbp version under GPL license. That way if someone wants to do a localised version, there's a nice start readily provided :)

16:04:47  <Hirundo> Basically to create a set of tiles and templates

18:39:00  <Webster> Title: TT Foundry: Pixel Creations for Open Transport Tycoon (at tt-foundry.com)
18:39:14  <andythenorth> ^^ is a list format I'm working.  It's work in progress
18:42:43  <planetmaker> andythenorth: something when reading the forums: you don't plan to close down serviced industries (like guano mine)?
18:42:53  <Ammler> andythenorth: why do you mix temperate and arctic but not tropic?
18:43:06  <andythenorth> Ammler: there is no difference currently between Arctic and Temperate
18:43:18  <andythenorth> I am trying to keep climate variation to a minimum
18:43:24  <andythenorth> it makes for more robust code
18:43:38  <andythenorth> I am open to suggestions though
18:44:03  <Ammler> well, it would be another variation instead of using parameters
18:44:20  <Ammler> i.e. use temperate for basic and more advance version for arctic
18:44:50  <andythenorth> Ammler: I am thinking about it like this: 9 economies x 2 climates = 18 things to test.  9 economies x 3 climates = 27 things to test
18:44:56  <andythenorth> variation == bad
18:45:01  <andythenorth> but variation is necessary :)
18:45:21  <andythenorth> planetmaker: (I see your comment above)
18:45:25  <Ammler> andythenorth: well, if you do it with parameters, you will get the same effect
18:45:44  <andythenorth> Ammler: ideally I would have no climates, then just 9 economies
18:45:57  <Ammler> yes
18:46:07  <andythenorth> but sugar cane and cotton don't grow so much above the snowline :)
18:46:15  <Ammler> I wouldn't work with climates at all
18:47:01  <Ammler> just use different econimies and than in a later step, you could enable different economics as default in the climas
18:47:58  <planetmaker> hm, actually a good idea. Just define n economies. And some are simply not available in climate XX or YY
18:48:27  <Ammler> climas are also something like difficult levels with default
18:48:35  <planetmaker> Like farming might not be available in arctic, if it includes some non-arctic industries
18:49:08  <andythenorth> I like the following suggestion: don't work with climates at all
18:49:30  <andythenorth> Bear in mind for example that two of my 'economies' are 'Mountain' and 'Tropical Island'
18:49:32  <Ammler> didn't I suggest that
18:49:47  <andythenorth> Yes
18:49:49  <andythenorth> :D
18:49:53  <andythenorth> Prize for Ammler
18:49:56  <Ammler> :-P
18:50:03  <planetmaker> andythenorth: yeah. "Tropical island" obviously is unsuitable for arcic... :-P
18:50:15  <planetmaker> Nobel price in newgrf proposals?
18:50:15  <andythenorth> but if players want to use those tiles...that's their choice
18:50:22  <Ammler> but no necessary for temperate
18:50:32  <andythenorth> climate = tiles + more or less annoying town behaviour
18:51:25  <andythenorth> Also Ammler - changing the 'default' basic FIRS later per climate is maybe nice.  As long as it doesn't confuse players.
18:51:36  <Ammler> planetmaker: what do you think about my other proposal, make a economic mode with default cargos only?
18:52:37  <andythenorth> planetmaker: for comparison, here's my proposal for FIRS Basic: http://tt-foundry.com/sets/FIRS/schema/misc/FIRS_basic_proposal_2.png
18:52:48  <andythenorth> there was an alternative, but it sucked
18:54:57  <planetmaker> Ammler: default cargoes = cargoes w/o newgrfs?
18:55:12  <Ammler> yes
18:55:26  <planetmaker> actually: interesting idea.
18:55:29  <Ammler> basically just other industries
18:55:32  <planetmaker> Not sure though, how feasable it is
18:55:53  <planetmaker> But I like it. Woul make FIRS playable w/o other newgrfs.
18:56:02  <Ammler> it would make it compatible to all newgrfs
18:56:02  <planetmaker> *would
18:56:18  *** Chris_Booth has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
18:56:50  <andythenorth> it's feasible...I think you'd find it added not much.   Or at least nothing that Pikka hasn't already done.  But if you want to try and work it out...... http://tt-foundry.com/sets/FIRS/schema/copy_of_economies#everything
18:56:52  <Webster> Title: TT Foundry: Pixel Creations for Open Transport Tycoon (at tt-foundry.com)
18:57:03  <andythenorth> that's your list to start with :)
18:57:09  <Ammler> :-)
18:57:32  <Ammler> maybe replace the supply cargos with goods?
18:57:50  <Ammler> or pax
18:58:17  <planetmaker> food is acceptable
18:58:25  *** Hyr|LeChef is now known as Hyronymus
18:58:26  <planetmaker> goods... well, the usuall stuff.
18:58:34  <DJNekkid> there is always the "new cargos old wagons"
18:58:50  <planetmaker> DJNekkid: sure. But the question was "without other newgrf" :-)
18:58:59  <DJNekkid> oki... :)
18:59:13  <Ammler> or with every other newgf
18:59:17  <planetmaker> only as _one_ option among many
18:59:25  <planetmaker> selectable via grf parameters
18:59:48  <Ammler> as the least possible minimum :-)
19:00:08  <andythenorth> Well see if you can come up with a list of industries then :)
19:00:16  <andythenorth> planetmaker: it's easy to edit firs.pnfo to test this in practice
19:00:32  <andythenorth> although it would now be useful to start templating industries per economy as well :0
19:00:34  <andythenorth> :)
19:00:57  <planetmaker> hehe :-)
19:01:18  <Ammler> the industries itself shouldn't care about economy
19:01:36  <planetmaker> well. Difficult, if you want the "basic" option.
19:01:46  <planetmaker> Or you'd need at least re-arange some cargos
19:01:52  <planetmaker> Well. Feasable.
19:02:07  <Ammler> then it needs to care about cargo
19:02:31  <Ammler> if no farm supply use goods
19:02:51  <planetmaker> that's bound to get very confusing.
19:03:15  <planetmaker> what an industry accepts should not vary. At least not much. Maybe an additional cargo or so
19:03:20  <planetmaker> same goes for supplies
19:05:19  <andythenorth> planetmaker: there will be a few, very small, carefully done variations to industry acceptance / production
19:05:24  <andythenorth> but otherwise nothing
19:05:38  <andythenorth> I do think the production code would handle it ok actually though
19:08:05  <andythenorth> Ammler: planetmaker are we *definite* about not working with climates?
19:08:22  <andythenorth> I ask as I'm about to send some web code to an early grave...
19:08:29  <planetmaker> andythenorth: fine with me.
19:08:32  <andythenorth> and I *don't* have much vcs :D
19:08:42  <Ammler> climas is just another econmy type
19:08:47  <planetmaker> yeah
19:09:09  <planetmaker> economy types are sufficient. They offer more variation than climates
19:09:18  <andythenorth> ok.  back in a bit.  I have to go make some changes :)
19:09:26  <planetmaker> And economy types availability - that can be climate specific ;-)
19:09:59  <andythenorth> could be.  Did you see my suggestion for massively improved setting of parameters?
19:10:33  <andythenorth> I think users would be annoyed to choose an economy then be told it doesn't work with climate x *after* they started the game
19:11:20  <planetmaker> Well... just make the parameter meaning a climate dependent function :-)
19:11:36  <planetmaker> a list of param value = economy
19:11:40  <planetmaker> for each climate
19:11:46  <andythenorth> hmm....this might cause major vehicle support issues
19:11:56  <andythenorth> if a vehicle set has climate-specific support...
19:12:07  <andythenorth> most don't, it's not how cargo-translation tables are supposed to work
19:12:25  <planetmaker> uh? How so? It's the vehicle set which makes its vehicles look different
19:12:45  <andythenorth> I believe some sets (CanRail) have a climate specific cargo translation table
19:13:09  * andythenorth files that under "even if true, not my problem" 
19:13:27  * andythenorth takes a knife to climate stuff
19:13:36  <andythenorth> (only on the website)
19:14:28  <planetmaker> andythenorth: yes. But the climate-specific CTT of a vehicle set should not cause a problem for the set, least for the industry set author
19:14:47  <andythenorth> it's not just industries, there are climate-specific cargos
19:15:04  <andythenorth> but I think it will be fine
19:16:00  <andythenorth> the only troubling item will be the Water chain
19:16:04  <andythenorth> pain in the arse
19:16:08  <planetmaker> andythenorth: yes. But cargos are defined by the industry. And that's where cargo classes come into play.
19:16:41  <planetmaker> As train set author you need to make sure to have appropriate graphics and wagon availability depending upon the classes.
19:16:53  <planetmaker> As a bonus you make it specific for those cargos defined in the CTT.
19:17:44  <andythenorth> planetmaker: yes.  I'm just thinking of OzTrans.  But he's promised full FIRS support anyway.
19:17:56  <planetmaker> :-)
19:18:06  <planetmaker> Yes, that's nice :-)
19:18:10  <Ammler> andythenorth: I would make a economic type like "arctic" or "tropic" or
19:18:26  <planetmaker> hm... no, I wouldn't :-)
19:18:50  <Ammler> well, it is a combination of other types ;-)
19:18:51  <andythenorth> me neither.  It needs to be subtly different
19:19:56  <Ammler> don't see, why you need to differ economy and clima
19:23:44  <andythenorth> hmm.  using a web based cms to design the set is handy.  If it's hard to make the cms show the set, the set will also be hard to code :)
19:24:04  <planetmaker> Ammler: exactly. And that poses the question: why name an economy after a climate in the first place?
19:24:40  <planetmaker> just name the economies appropriately to what they reflect. Just "tropcial" etc is boring
19:24:48  <planetmaker> and quite non-descriptive
19:24:58  <andythenorth> Tropical Island is more fun :)
19:25:27  <andythenorth> I suppose we could start screwing with stuff like snowline as well
19:25:35  <andythenorth> And base tiles...and town placement.
19:25:41  <andythenorth> And then we've remade the game :o
19:25:48  <planetmaker> having like "1001 nights" and "Father Christmas home" is more fun ;-)
19:26:31  <planetmaker> andythenorth: I wouldn't put a snow line into FIRS. Bad style IMO to modify other parts of the game.
19:26:41  <andythenorth> yes, quite right
19:26:51  <andythenorth> And also...more work :P
19:26:56  <planetmaker> Besides, you can just copy&paste my snowline newgrf ;-)
19:27:17  <planetmaker> hm... I didn't put online that code so far... oh well.
19:27:33  <planetmaker> it's GPL'ed anyway and despite.
19:28:12  * andythenorth finishes setting all industries and cargos to appear in all climates
19:28:41  <planetmaker> And now it needs to be made a function of "economy model" :-P
19:29:28  <andythenorth> I haven't modified any code yet, just the website

20:02:51  <Hyronymus> curl-able?
20:03:52  <Ammler> paste.openttd.org or files section at devzone
20:04:38  <Ammler> only the public key, hope that is obvious ;-)
20:04:53  <planetmaker> Ammler: only *nix gurus know what curl is ;-)
20:05:23  <planetmaker> for other people it is just a "Wirbel" ;-). For others it's even a differential operator
20:06:46  <planetmaker> also written as &nabla; &times;
20:12:35  <Hyronymus> sorry, busy with a small connection problem
20:12:51  <Hyronymus> right, so I need to paste the public key

20:16:36  <planetmaker> ok, written and authorized
20:16:42  <Ammler> :-)
20:16:54  <planetmaker> Hyronymus: do you have the 2cctrainset repo already on your machine.
20:16:55  <Ammler> just liked to ask, if you do or if I shall :-P
20:17:05  <planetmaker> hehe
20:17:24  <Hyronymus> no, I haven't
20:17:57  <planetmaker> ok, clone it first.
20:18:02  <planetmaker> Try the key for that:
20:18:07  <Hyronymus> sounds sci~fi
20:18:57  <planetmaker> hg clone ssh://ottdc@mz.openttdcoop.org//hg-repos/2cctrainset 2cctrainset
20:19:25  <planetmaker> if everything is setup it should fetch the repo using your key.
20:19:35  <planetmaker> if not... there'll be an error :-P
20:19:37  <DJNekkid> god damn, that resolve-thing
20:23:59  <planetmaker> Hyronymus: does that work?
20:24:06  <Hyronymus> not yet

20:34:08  <DJNekkid> that line works atleast for me
20:34:12  <DJNekkid> btw
20:34:16  <planetmaker> and me :-)
20:34:20  <DJNekkid> you might want to add a dir behind that

20:34:34  <Hyronymus> it works now

20:36:15  <Ammler> [21:18] <planetmaker> hg clone ssh://ottdc@mz.openttdcoop.org//hg-repos/2cctrainset 2cctrainset <-- maybe the 2 "/" caused the first failed try?

20:42:51  <DJNekkid> lol
20:43:54  <DJNekkid> Hyronymus:
20:43:54  <DJNekkid> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/home/wiki/Getting_started_on_Win
20:44:11  <Hyronymus> am readin that and found the links to said programs
20:48:59  <Ammler> andythenorth: basic has still too many :-)
20:49:21  <Ammler> or will there be a "light" with fewer?
20:49:29  <andythenorth> basic === light
20:49:43  <andythenorth> well cut some out then.  I'm open to suggestions.  I'd say cut the Fishing Harbour, but posting screenies of that made people very excited
20:50:03  <DJNekkid> doesnt that "only" produce food directly?
20:50:11  <Ammler> well, if I play FIRS, I would use extreme ;-)
20:50:19  <andythenorth> DJNekkid: yes, it's a bit weird.  It has to be supplied with stuff though
20:50:27  <andythenorth> let me add an industry count to those pages...
20:51:12  <Ammler> maybe remove the oil chain?
20:51:48  <planetmaker> honestly Ammler make an overall "basic" vector as you proposed and present that instead of single proposals :-)
20:51:59  <planetmaker> That's much better than ... yes, those :-)
20:52:16  <planetmaker> and yes, I agree in principle with you that 'basic' still is quite big.
20:53:17  <DJNekkid> but basic should, imho, be more then just vanilla ttd
20:53:22  <DJNekkid> thats what we have vanilla for
20:53:26  <Ammler> IMO not
20:53:29  <andythenorth> Vanilla is done
20:53:48  <Ammler> it should be other than vanilla, not more
20:54:00  <andythenorth> Vanilla and or PBI.  It's been done to death, surely?
20:54:14  <andythenorth> I guess I've played a *lot* of PBI.  perspectives may vary
20:54:17  <DJNekkid> i agree andy
20:54:21  <Ammler> PBI is already too much for some ;-)
20:54:31  <andythenorth> gee, let me just recompress some images, this is scary slow
20:54:41  <Ammler> well, not too many indsutries, but too much micromanagement
20:55:15  <DJNekkid> but dont have that micromanagement...
20:55:43  <DJNekkid> but firs dont ...
21:01:54  <Hyronymus> ok, I have everything installed
21:02:06  <planetmaker> then 'make' :-)
21:02:07  <DJNekkid> go to the 2cc-dir and try "make"
21:02:12  <planetmaker> in the 2ccdir :-)
21:02:16  <Hyronymus> ok
21:02:49  <DJNekkid> btw, you might want to find a file called "makefile.local"
21:02:52  <DJNekkid> and add this line
21:02:52  <DJNekkid> INSTALLDIR = c:/data/openttd/data
21:03:04  <DJNekkid> atleast, if that is where your .grf's are :P
21:03:40  <Hyronymus> where would that file be
21:03:51  <planetmaker> where Makefile is. E.g. in the 2cctrain dir
21:03:52  <DJNekkid> in the 2cc dir
21:04:02  <planetmaker> there's a Makefile.sample
21:04:13  <planetmaker> you might copy that and uncomment the appropriate line
21:05:59  <Hyronymus> did that
21:06:10  <DJNekkid> now you can "make install"
21:06:11  <Hyronymus> now I'm in the 2cc set dir
21:06:21  <DJNekkid> and it will copy the file into the openttd data-dir
21:06:23  <planetmaker> then 'make install' will copy the latest grf into your grf dir as specified there
21:06:29  <planetmaker> meh... slow :-)
21:06:31  <DJNekkid> you can also "make remake install"
21:06:48  <DJNekkid> and that builds the grf from scratch, and install it to your data-dir
21:07:01  <Hyronymus> I can't find the make install command
21:07:02  <Hyronymus> :p
21:07:08  <Hyronymus> I'm a n00b
21:07:12  <planetmaker> it will call itself something like 2cctrainset-nightly-rXXX
21:07:20  <planetmaker> hm... make is part of MinGW
21:07:30  <planetmaker> all from command line
21:07:42  <PeterT> Hyronymus: Are you doing that 32bpp Dutch Trainset?
21:07:53  <planetmaker> just type that in your command line. If make is not found, you have to adjust your path settings
21:07:57  <Hyronymus> I will be doing it, PeterT
21:08:06  <PeterT> ok, I'll be waiting
21:08:44  <Hyronymus> hmm
21:08:55  * Hyronymus is positive he put all things in dev
21:09:14  <planetmaker> Hyronymus: yes... but maybe some sub dir?
21:09:35  <planetmaker> IIRC there's a bin dir coming with mingw...
21:09:36  <Hyronymus> c:\dev\
21:10:01  <planetmaker> have a look at its wiki. It explains it... or at least it worked for me, going by their defaults when I setup that stuff in a VM a year ago
21:10:06  <Hyronymus> oh, I think I know the problem
21:10:16  <Hyronymus> there is a 1.0 dir
21:10:38  <Hyronymus> with msys
21:11:24  <Hyronymus> are path's case sensitive?
21:11:40  <planetmaker> might be. at least on all systems except windows
21:11:57  <planetmaker> ^ also a hint for future commits ;-)
21:12:06  <andythenorth> all of you using a proper browser?  i.e. webkit or gecko based?
21:12:12  <planetmaker> DJNekkid: might remember those issues initially, too ;-)
21:12:45  <DJNekkid> indeed i do :)
21:12:48  <planetmaker> andythenorth: meaning? Safari / Moz?
21:12:49  <DJNekkid> it takes a bit getting used to
21:12:54  <andythenorth> yes
21:13:11  <planetmaker> well... yes? Why?
21:13:11  <andythenorth> safari or FF / Moz
21:13:20  <andythenorth> nah, just fooling with some rounded corners
21:13:29  <andythenorth> not necessary, but slightly restful
21:16:34  <planetmaker> hehe. I remember when I was kinda surprised to find an internet explorer on a True64 machine ;-)
21:16:37  <Hyronymus> can't find what I did wrong
21:16:55  <Hyronymus> tortoise isn't in the dev dir but in program files
21:17:03  <Hyronymus> but in the path it's correctly mentioed
21:17:20  <DJNekkid> you might need a reboot after setting the path
21:17:26  <Hyronymus> ok
21:17:29  <Hyronymus> brb then
21:17:34  *** Hyronymus has quit IRC
21:17:57  <planetmaker> maybe it was also IRIX on a SGI onyx... dunno anymore
21:19:45  <planetmaker> he... true64 seems kinda common. But in the times of 16 bit systems it was great :-)
21:20:45  *** Hyronymus has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
21:21:00  <Hyronymus> still no make
21:21:01  <planetmaker> wb :-)
21:21:05  <planetmaker> hm...
21:21:17  <Hyronymus> can you tell me exactly what to do in the 2cc dir
21:21:29  <DJNekkid> open a command line
21:21:33  <DJNekkid> start->run->cmd
21:21:36  <DJNekkid> if windows xp
21:21:41  <Hyronymus> vista
21:21:45  <DJNekkid> start -> search -> cmd if vista/7
21:21:54  <Hyronymus> but I have a command line
21:22:04  <DJNekkid> cd <to 2cc dir>
21:22:10  <DJNekkid> make
21:23:11  <Hyronymus> ooh
21:23:14  <Hyronymus> now it does work
21:23:23  <DJNekkid> :D
21:24:25  <Hyronymus> 572kb
21:24:38  <Hyronymus> w00t
21:24:39  <planetmaker> size of the grf? Might well be
21:24:57  <DJNekkid> sounds about right
21:26:41  <Hyronymus> it says v442
21:27:04  <DJNekkid> not r442? :)
21:27:08  <planetmaker> :-P
21:27:28  <Hyronymus> :P
21:27:41  <Hyronymus> thx for your patience
21:27:43  <planetmaker> which means that we made 442 changes to it since it was started / imported here
21:27:47  <Hyronymus> I'm really new to this
21:27:59  <planetmaker> no worries, you're doing well :-)
21:28:27  <Ammler> Hyronymus: now, you can practice update and compile again
21:28:30  <Webster> Latest update from devactivity: 2cc train set - Revision 443: Change: Cleaning up the english languagefile abit :) <http://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/2cctrainset/repository/revisions/443>
21:28:35  <Ammler> as tip is r443
21:28:56  <planetmaker> hehe. Probably time difference ;-)
21:29:03  <Hyronymus> is there a Dutch languagefile too
21:29:09  <planetmaker> yup
21:29:15  <Hyronymus> hmm
21:29:18  <Hyronymus> let's ape it
21:29:18  <welshdragon> planetmaker: how do i get LZO?
21:29:23  <Hyronymus> *rape
21:29:30  <Hyronymus> nah, I'll experiment a bit
21:29:31  <DJNekkid> btw Hyronymus, you might need to "hg pull -u"
21:29:40  <PeterT> planetmaker: For mac, he means.
21:29:50  <DJNekkid> as i've done a update since you cloned it
21:29:51  <planetmaker> welshdragon: uhm... ?
21:30:03  <Ammler> sounds like a compress tiny
21:30:24  <welshdragon> planetmaker: i need the LZO Library for OSX 10.5
21:30:32  <welshdragon> any ideas how to get it?
21:30:57  <planetmaker> hm... I guess I downloaded it and then make install. Maybe macports has it, too. I don't know anymore.
21:31:02  <planetmaker> where do you need it for?
21:31:05  <Hyronymus> I can pull from the repository explorer, right
21:31:08  <planetmaker> OpenTTD has it inbuilt kinda
21:31:16  <Ammler> Hyronymus: just be aware, that you should always hg pull && hg update (= hg pull -u), if you like to check something or commit
21:31:22  <welshdragon> planetmaker: i need it for openttd
21:31:34  <welshdragon> ./make says it cannot be found
21:31:34  <PeterT> for compiling, OpenTTD
21:31:40  <welshdragon> yes

21:31:41  <Webster> Title: Fink - Package Database - Package lzo2 (Real-time data compression library) (at pdb.finkproject.org)
21:31:43  <Hyronymus> ok  Ammler
21:32:07  <welshdragon> it is
21:32:13  <welshdragon> but that requires compiling
21:32:14  <Ammler> the more you keep your repo up2date, the less you need to merge
21:32:19  <planetmaker> welshdragon: yes, it does
21:32:25  <planetmaker> port install lzo
21:32:36  <Hyronymus> Ammler: I can choose in the repository explorer: after pull: <update>
21:32:42  <Hyronymus> is that the same as the command line
21:32:53  <Ammler> yes, sounds like
21:32:55  <planetmaker> or lzop or lzo2
21:32:59  <Hyronymus> ok
21:33:12  <Ammler> Hyronymus: type hg parent

21:33:44  <Ammler> then you see, if it worked, if tag is tip
21:33:59  <Ammler> if tag != tip, you need to update
21:34:11  <planetmaker> Hyronymus: there *might* also be for most of those things GUI equivalents. But don't ask me or Ammler ;-)
21:34:16  <planetmaker> we can only tell you command line
21:34:24  <Hyronymus> ok
21:34:37  <Ammler> but the tortoisehg seems a nice tool
21:34:42  <planetmaker> yep
21:34:44  <Ammler> I didn't hear bad things about.
21:34:58  <planetmaker> yeah, seems to be nicely and actively maintained
21:35:01  <Ammler> I should install it here too
21:35:12  <Ammler> as it isn't windows only.

23:10:36  <Ammler> as everyone here is also on the other channel
23:13:49  *** ODM has quit IRC
23:15:12  <welshdragon> Ammler: it's just that some of the developers don't seem very obliging with help
23:18:00  <Ammler> welshdragon: oh well, don't take that personally
23:22:28  <Ammler> if you like to create a subchannels you should prefix those with #openttd, like #openttd.compile or such
23:22:50  <PeterT> welshdragon: What Ammler said is a better idea
23:23:04  <PeterT> Ammler: If we do that, shouldn't we ask #openttders?
23:23:15  <Ammler> why?
23:23:26  <Ammler> don't think, they care
23:23:38  <Ammler> we used that in some places too, like #openttd.is
23:24:53  <Ammler> I guess, there is a rule on this network, theoretically you need to make them subchannels, if those aren't own projects
23:25:38  <PeterT> ok, i just told welshdragon
23:26:07  <Ammler> well, not sure, just sometime, someone talked about that
23:41:10  <PeterT> Ammle: We moved
23:54:10  <welshdragon> yep
23:54:19  <welshdragon> #openttd.compile is our home
