00:00:28  <Eddi|zuHause> what?
00:00:51  <Eddi|zuHause> the "standard" revision will always be the current stable...
00:01:01  <Eddi|zuHause> that's why it is the current stable
00:01:14  *** Progman [~progman@p57A1EC3C.dip.t-dialin.net] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
00:01:15  <UndernotBuilder> for example - server admins agree to use rXXXXX revision for their servers
00:01:47  <Eddi|zuHause> there'd be no point in a stable if nobody used it
00:02:05  <UndernotBuilder> that's because I don't use nightlies / want to get 0.6.0 released
00:02:41  <Eddi|zuHause> so what is the problem?
00:03:14  <Eddi|zuHause> current stable is 0.5.2, if you use that, you will find the most compatible servers
00:03:30  <UndernotBuilder> but there are less features in 0.5.2
00:03:43  <Eddi|zuHause> so?
00:03:56  <Eddi|zuHause> trunk is by far not ready for 0.6.0
00:04:20  <Eddi|zuHause> or rather, it is too soon after 0.5.0
00:04:23  <UndernotBuilder> no trams, no one way roads, no other great features
00:04:39  <Eddi|zuHause> but still, what is the problem?
00:05:00  <UndernotBuilder> I want to play with more features
00:05:25  <Eddi|zuHause> and what does that have to do with specific revisions?
00:06:05  <Eddi|zuHause> if you find an unstable server, just get the revision that server runs
00:06:10  <UndernotBuilder> because generally servers uses different revisions
00:06:34  <Eddi|zuHause> that's what 'svn up -r XXXXX' is for
00:06:39  <DJGummikuh> this does not make any sense
00:06:48  <DJGummikuh> I allowed port 3979 udp and tcp
00:06:59  <DJGummikuh> nevertheless I can't connect to the server
00:07:11  <UndernotBuilder> and I don't want to download 3484189471 different revisions
00:07:20  <Belugas> UndernotBuilder : if nobody test the nightlies, how can we find all the bugs that are in it?
00:07:33  <Belugas> don't forget that nighlies will bring 0.6.0 and others as well...
00:07:34  <UndernotBuilder> that's the point
00:07:36  <DJGummikuh> only if I do iptables -F it works
00:07:37  <DJGummikuh> btw
00:07:42  <DJGummikuh> I have a strange bug with 0.5.2
00:07:46  <Eddi|zuHause> UndernotBuilder: the point of a nightly is that it is a different one every night
00:07:50  <UndernotBuilder> make the nightlies more popular
00:08:06  <DJGummikuh> when on tracks from lower right to upper left, the coal lorrys for monorails appear full when they are empty
00:08:21  <Eddi|zuHause> UndernotBuilder: then start your own nightly server
00:08:36  <DJGummikuh> as soon as the train alters direction they appear empty again but as long as it travelles from upper left to lower right or vice versa they allways look full
00:08:36  <Eddi|zuHause> and deal with all the issues that come with it
00:08:41  <UndernotBuilder> and the others nightly servers?
00:09:04  <Belugas> what about them?
00:09:15  *** setrodox [setrodox@85-125-223-194.dynamic.xdsl-line.inode.at] has quit [Quit: Hapiness ;D]
00:09:16  <UndernotBuilder> and also, I will not get too many clients like in stables
00:09:32  <Eddi|zuHause> brianettas nightly was very popular
00:10:04  <UndernotBuilder> and the others servers will not use always the same revision than my server
00:10:15  <DJGummikuh> does someone here have a 0.5.2 running?
00:10:24  <Eddi|zuHause> until he decided to stop it, because trunk got very little changes, while important features were developed in branches
00:10:29  <DJGummikuh> and can tell me if it needs any other port than 3979 in tcp and udp?
00:10:29  <Belugas> DJGummikuh, no, sorry
00:10:36  <Belugas> but i will eventually check it
00:10:54  <DJGummikuh> Belugas: yeah looks rather odd ^^
00:10:54  <Rubidium> DJGummikuh: it doesn't, unless you want to run an advertised server
00:11:09  <DJGummikuh> Rubidium: it already is advertised
00:11:19  <DJGummikuh> dbg: [NET][UDP] We are advertised on the master-server!
00:11:26  <DJGummikuh> well wait
00:11:32  <DJGummikuh> that was before I started my firewall..
00:11:37  <DJGummikuh> what ports do I need for an advertised server?
00:11:42  <Rubidium> !openttd port
00:11:43  <_42_> Rubidium: OpenTTD uses TCP and UDP port 3979 for server <-> client communication and UDP port 3978 for masterserver (advsertise) communication (outbound)
00:12:01  <DJGummikuh> Rubidium: I know that... but this info does not make my server appear when it should...
00:12:15  <Eddi|zuHause> then you misconfigured your firewall
00:12:21  <DJGummikuh> I have tcp and udp for 3979 activated and I don't need to declare any outgoing things
00:12:32  <glx> do you have a router?
00:12:39  <DJGummikuh> glx: no
00:12:51  <DJGummikuh> that's why I run iptables on the machine hosting the server ^^
00:12:59  <DJGummikuh> it has a global ip
00:13:16  <DJGummikuh> iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 3979 -j ACCEPT         #OpenTTD
00:13:16  <DJGummikuh> iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3979 -j ACCEPT         #OpenTTD
00:13:22  <DJGummikuh> that should be ok, no?
00:13:42  <Eddi|zuHause> i did not try to configure iptables manually yet...
00:14:11  <Rubidium> if it works without firewall *and* you didn't force the port to be different, that should be OK if it were the only lines, but other lines could kick OTTD packets on beforehand
00:14:34  <glx> DJGummikuh: I can see your playhouse server
00:14:53  <DJGummikuh> odd
00:15:06  <DJGummikuh> yes and now I even can access it... why couldn't I do so before? *confused*
00:15:12  <CIA-1> OpenTTD: rubidium * r10050 /trunk/ (config.lib configure): -Codechange: make it a little easier to force a version number (for releases).
00:15:31  <Eddi|zuHause> DJGummikuh: the order of the rules is often important
00:15:50  <DJGummikuh> odd
00:15:54  <DJGummikuh> Eddi|zuHause: I haven't changed anything
00:16:03  <DJGummikuh> Eddi|zuHause: hmm...
00:16:04  <Eddi|zuHause> they always say that :p
00:16:04  <UndernotBuilder> but someone has a solution for my trouble?
00:16:17  <DJGummikuh> maybe some of the admins of the net gone loco again -.-
00:16:44  *** Nukebuster [~wouter@a62-251-21-79.adsl.xs4all.nl] has joined #openttd
00:18:20  <Eddi|zuHause> i always used the SuSEFirewall2 wrapper to configure iptables
00:19:24  <DJGummikuh> Eddi|zuHause: well I'm more the old fashioned way and do it by hand.. that way I can be quite sure that (despite my own dumbness) nothing stands between what I WANT the firewall to do and what it actually DOES :D
00:20:12  <Belugas> UndernotBuilder, i don't think that the simple fact of using nightlies will push users away.  Make it attractive with some nice features, like cool maps, a good set of grfs, thinkgs like that
00:20:29  <Belugas> advertise it on your signature,
00:20:38  <Belugas> let yourself visible
00:20:53  <Belugas> and do not care about the other servers, only yours
00:21:38  <DJGummikuh> ah btw visible servers
00:22:07  <DJGummikuh> you should really somehow forbid to add special chars as first char in the server name to push the server further to the top when listed by name
00:22:16  *** Tobin [~Tobin@c58-107-50-36.eburwd7.vic.optusnet.com.au] has quit [Quit: Tobin]
00:22:31  <Rubidium> DJGummikuh: then everybody would call his server aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
00:22:31  <DJGummikuh> if you only allow letters to be the first char, this habit should go away
00:22:36  <DJGummikuh> Rubidium: I don't think so
00:22:38  <Eddi|zuHause> there are two basic ways to run a nigtly server: a) stop the game each night, update the binary, reload the game again, or b) start the game on one revision, and keep it until the game ends, then update for the next game
00:22:57  <DJGummikuh> ,.-'°FunnyServer°'-., doesn't look as stupid as
00:23:02  <DJGummikuh> AAAAAAAAAAA Funny Server
00:23:29  <Rubidium> still, who cares about that ordering?
00:23:43  <DJGummikuh> Well I do since I need a way to find my server which starts with D
00:23:48  <Eddi|zuHause> you could introduce a setting to ignore special characters when sorting
00:23:57  <DJGummikuh> as an alternative you could implement something like a favorite list
00:24:07  <DJGummikuh> or "recently played" or something similar
00:24:09  <glx> DJGummikuh: use connect_to in cfg
00:24:31  <Rubidium> connect once manually to that server by entering it's IP or dns name
00:24:54  <DJGummikuh> and then?
00:25:04  <glx> [servers] section is a good thing too
00:25:32  <Rubidium> the next time it'll already be in the server list
00:25:43  <DJGummikuh> oh
00:25:44  <DJGummikuh> cool
00:26:01  <CIA-1> OpenTTD: rubidium * r10051 /trunk/ (Makefile.src.in config.lib): -Add: git "version" detection so we've got at least some indication what version we're playing when using git ;)
00:37:40  <Belugas> http://devs.openttd.org/~belugas/Industries/nice_forest.png
00:37:46  <Belugas> toumdedoum!
00:40:34  <DJGummikuh> you made it?
00:41:25  <Sleepie> Nice one :) is the space between the four parts usable for infrastructure or is it just eyecandy?
00:43:05  <Belugas> http://devs.openttd.org/~belugas/Industries/cross_forest.png
00:43:08  <Belugas> nope
00:43:22  <Belugas> they are the creation of mr Pikka
00:43:24  <DJGummikuh> what is so special about it that its worth a screenshot though?
00:43:26  *** KritiK [Maxim@ppp83-237-102-43.pppoe.mtu-net.ru] has quit [Quit: Leaving]
00:43:55  <Belugas> that is a little victory i had just a few minutes ago over newindustries !
00:44:13  <DJGummikuh> what's newindustries? (sorry if this is a dumb question)
00:44:32  <Belugas> DJGummikuh, try to meet a forest like those two in the current game ;)
00:44:58  <Belugas> it's a grf specs that enables creating and/or modifying industries
00:45:00  <Belugas> ingame
00:45:24  <Belugas> we had newhouses recently, newindustries is the logical follow up
00:45:42  <Sleepie> Belugas: ahh, Pikka's latest creations anyway really nice and even better to see them in a openttd game ;)
00:46:08  <DJGummikuh> Belugas: well I have a rather large forest in my current game on my server.. looks like 2 forests put next to each other but is only one
00:47:02  <Sleepie> DJGummikuh: are you sure it's only one?
00:47:17  <DJGummikuh> Sleepie: well if I click on it, only one info window openes
00:48:32  <Sleepie> DJGummikuh: hmm, even if you click at different edges? Perhaps you have a screenie of it?
00:49:19  <DJGummikuh> Sleepie: if you have 0.5.2 handy you could simply join and check for yourself.. I'll double-check though
00:50:04  <DJGummikuh> ok now two windows were opened
00:50:21  <Sleepie> :P
00:50:25  <DJGummikuh> hmm..
00:50:47  <DJGummikuh> I would have bet money on that last time I checked there was only one forest.. :)
00:51:03  <Sleepie> well no prob, I do that often when I make new maps
00:51:10  <Eddi|zuHause> how far is it from this success to the "end-victory"? :p
00:51:50  <Belugas> there are only 2 versions of the forest ingame.  one with 18 tiles, the other with 23.  but none bare the same patterna s the two i've just shonw
00:57:23  <DJGummikuh> ah yeah one other thing.. why aren't you on freenode?
00:57:23  <DJGummikuh> right now I have to be on 4 irc servers because everybody is on his own irc server... that sucks
00:57:23  <Rubidium> because there were some trouble with freenode for a very long time and at a point it was "enough" and we moved
00:57:23  <DJGummikuh> hmm... problems with their policy or what?
00:57:23  <glx> register for PM is an example
00:57:23  <Belugas> this one for sure you don't see often around : http://devs.openttd.org/~belugas/Industries/OilPowered.png
00:57:24  <DJGummikuh> glx: actually I like that policy
00:57:32  <Belugas> Eddi|zuHause : i still maintain my ETA : somewhere around fall
00:57:44  <DJGummikuh> lol nice
00:59:06  <Eddi|zuHause> fall gets nearer every day :)
01:00:03  <Belugas> yeah. but it's 3 months long :D

01:34:38  <gass> it's about trac
01:36:31  <Rubidium> what's with trac?
01:37:26  <gass> the problem that svn.openttd.org is facing is fixed in trac 0.10.4
01:37:36  <gass> two concurrent resync attempts can leave the database in an inconsistent state
01:37:53  <gass> and also give instability problems

01:38:10  <gass> yes
01:38:14  <glx> the problem was ressource usage IIRC
01:39:08  <gass> glx, yes ... i just remembered this problem in openttd ... we fixed this in trac 0.10.3 in debian, but it's fixed in trac 0.10.4
01:39:34  <gass> i just tought you could try 0.10.4
01:40:17  <gass> well ... cy
01:40:19  <gass> off to bed

09:18:49  <TheJosh> where can i put some code to clean up some stuff when a game is abandoned?
09:18:56  <TheJosh> aka dynamic array
09:19:14  <peter1138> we just rely on the OS ;p
09:19:33  <peter1138> i don't think ottd runs on any systems that don't free up used memory on exit
09:20:00  <boekabart> it runs... once
09:20:02  <Kjetil> Oh noes.. it won't run on DOS ! aaaaahhh
09:20:02  <boekabart> maybe twice
09:20:17  <CIA-1> OpenTTD: rubidium * r10054 /trunk/src/ (4 files in 2 dirs): -Codechange: make the industries cost modifier look more like the original one, so it's much easier to support industries that use this original format.
09:20:41  <peter1138> Kjetil: does DOS even have a concept of free memory? heh
09:20:52  <peter1138> i imagine any dos 'extender' would handle it anyway
09:20:57  <peter1138> just guessing though
09:20:57  <boekabart> well there was always too little, so it must have
09:21:07  <Rubidium> anything about 640kB is free, right?
09:21:16  <Rubidium> *above
09:21:32  <peter1138> i think 'mem' knew of stuff in EMS/XMS, so...
09:22:13  <peter1138> hmm, mem is qemu says so, but that's freedos
09:22:16  <boekabart> peter1138: pretty sure that the heap of the protected mode 'layer' would clean up better than openttd does :)
09:22:26  <peter1138> Extended (XMS)  130,048K    12,744K   117,304K
09:22:38  <boekabart> you run DOS on the side? :)
09:22:39  <peter1138> yeha
09:22:40  <TheJosh> so noone cleans up there heap objects anymore?
09:22:43  <Kjetil> peter1138: haha.. I was using Dos the other day. I am amazed how poorly designed it is. Why did people buy that crap ?..
09:22:45  <peter1138> ottd only cleans up between games ;)
09:22:56  <TheJosh> isnt a 'memory leak' a non-cleaned up heap object?
09:23:10  <Rubidium> no
09:23:18  <TheJosh> i have a unopened genuiene copy of MS-DOS 6.2
09:23:24  <Nickman> Cool :D
09:23:25  <Rubidium> a memory leak is a non-cleaned up heap object that doesn't have any reference to it anymore
09:23:29  <Biff> memory leak is when you have allocated memory which has 0 references to it
09:23:48  <peter1138> "FreeDOS is resident in the high memory area."
09:23:50  <peter1138> woo, intelligent
09:23:52  <TheJosh> but if the program closes, there will be no reference to my object
09:24:02  <peter1138> still only 619KB of 'conventional' memory free
09:24:04  <peter1138> heheh
09:24:07  <Biff> if the program closes the memory is free
09:24:12  <peter1138> been AGES since i heard that conventional memory term
09:24:27  <Kjetil> Biff: if you run a proper os :P
09:24:38  <peter1138> even windows frees it, heh
09:24:50  <Biff> what os doesnt free memory?
09:24:55  <Kjetil> dos :P
09:24:57  <TheJosh> old windows
09:25:02  <Biff> i think win9x had some bugs, but it did it
09:25:05  <TheJosh> 95 and 98
09:25:32  <Biff> well, it did free memory, but there were some bugs that were never fixed, so it didnt always manage to free memory
09:25:33  <boekabart> 95/98 tried to, but didn't have the possibility to enforce it 100% i think
09:25:36  <TheJosh> and XP until your program uses about 800mb of ram (i tested it once by mkaing lots of integers)
09:25:52  <Biff> hehe
09:26:04  <TheJosh> then at 90% full or so it just drops off
09:26:09  <Biff> that seems like a hard way to do it .-)
09:26:12  <TheJosh> i guess the GC went through
09:26:22  <Biff> what GC?
09:26:22  <boekabart> that's swapping. look at VM size rather than memory size
09:26:35  <TheJosh> nonetheless, can i execute code to clean up this memory?
09:26:45  <TheJosh> GC = garbage collector
09:26:56  <peter1138> what GC, not what is GC
09:26:58  <Biff> yes, did you use a gc language?
09:27:28  <TheJosh> no this experiment was in c++
09:27:29  <Biff> if you used something like java, its the java vm that frees up the memory, by doing reference counting
09:27:29  <boekabart> XeryusTC: we talked about GC yesterday too
09:27:38  <Nickman> C and C++ doesn't do automatic GC ..
09:27:45  <Nickman> as I recall...
09:27:45  <XeryusTC> :o
09:27:46  <boekabart> you can easily replace your malloc/free by a GC library.
09:27:52  <TheJosh> the os must then if what you guys are taling about is true
09:27:52  <Biff> ok, then there usually is no GC
09:28:21  <Biff> TheJosh: the os knows when the process is closed, and it can mark its memory as free
09:28:22  <Nickman> in C++ you have to do all garbage collection yourself. But this only goas for dangling pointers...
09:28:33  <boekabart> if you close a program when debugging it in in msvc, i'll give you a list of all the memory blocks unfreed
09:28:36  <Nickman> local varables and stuff are removed when they go out of scope
09:28:57  <Nickman> and indeed, when the program terminates, the OS recieves all the memory again ;)
09:28:58  <Biff> boekabart: ah, something like valgrind
09:28:58  <boekabart> then you can set a breakpoint on their allocation (if repeatable)
09:29:17  <peter1138> valgrind is just designed to make it impossible to test by being really slow...
09:29:30  <boekabart> so if you make sure the game does 100% the same thing on a run (until closing) you can figure out what blocks they are.
09:29:37  * peter1138 remembers that days when newgrf leaked memory like a sieve
09:29:53  <TheJosh> where can i put some code after the game has been closed?
09:30:32  <peter1138> UnInitializeGame() in openttd.cpp does some clean up
09:30:40  <boekabart> class bla { public: ~bla() { /* the code */ } } onebla;
09:30:48  <Nickman> when the game is closed you shouldn't do anything, it gets thrown away anyway... :D
09:30:58  <peter1138> not all pools are cleaned up though. hmm.
09:31:02  <Nickman> yeah, use destructors...
09:31:07  <peter1138> boekabart: roflcopters
09:31:25  <Biff> is there any free space in savegames?
09:31:40  <boekabart> only in small ones :)
09:31:40  <TheJosh> peter1138: thanks for an actual answer
09:31:56  <Biff> or rather, if i wanted the savegame to remember last railtype used, would it break compatibility?
09:32:17  <boekabart> Biff: you can add a variable to patches
09:32:25  <boekabart> without UI
09:32:32  <boekabart> you'll have to bump the savegame version though
09:32:46  <Rubidium> Biff: not necessarily, but requires quite a lot of work to do it in a way that you can still load old savegames
09:33:19  <Biff> i see
09:33:19  <Rubidium> so, technically possible, practically unfeasible
09:34:06  <Biff> i hate building the wrong type of rail
09:34:07  <Biff> :p
09:34:16  <TheJosh> does openttd mainly use malloc or new ??
09:34:24  <TheJosh> to create an object on the heap
09:34:34  <peter1138> mainly malloc
09:34:48  <TheJosh> malloc and free?
09:35:13  <Rubidium> no, malloc and delete and new and free ofcourse ;)
09:35:28  <TheJosh> ok thanks
09:35:43  <Rubidium> *kuch*

09:41:02  <boekabart> TheJosh: is that including english? just kidding :)
09:41:04  <TheJosh> some are dialects. 15 to be safe
09:41:18  <TheJosh> also depends what you think of html and css
09:41:19  * boekabart would like to see a list :)
09:41:24  <Rubidium> does that include C?
09:41:53  <peter1138> html and css are not programming languages
09:41:54  <TheJosh> probably shouldnt
09:42:08  <TheJosh> i know, but they still require learning
09:42:09  <peter1138> (but javascript is, of course)
09:42:10  <ln-> TheJosh: html and css are of course not programming languages.

09:42:47  <Rubidium> xml and uml neither, unless you're talking about exectable uml

09:50:43  <boekabart> well.. isn't C is a software description language :)
09:50:57  <Rubidium> ofcourse it looks awfully lot like a programming language
09:51:04  <boekabart> it's all if (input) then output();
09:52:00  <Rubidium> in that case... I can (i.e. once programmed in) [..lot of languages..] ;)

11:23:04  <blathijs> Nickman: Can you try "make VERBOSE=1", that should display the executed commands IIRC
11:23:11  <Nickman> aha

11:24:57  <Eddi|zuHause2> <skidd13> Every programming-language has it's purpose ... even if it's nonsense or fun ... (except prolog IMO :lol:) <- prolog is clearly one of the greatest languages invented :)
11:26:22  <Nickman> and why is that? :p
11:27:29  <Eddi|zuHause2> because!
11:28:24  <Eddi|zuHause2> but really, prolog is so cool if you can handle it properly :)
11:29:14  <blathijs> #troll prolog
11:29:39  <Eddi|zuHause2> above that is only Haskell :)
11:30:07  <Eddi|zuHause2> in what other language can you calculate all prime numbers in a short one-liner?
11:30:20  <Nickman> hahaha :D
11:30:23  <Nickman> that's true :d
11:30:23  <DJGummikuh> Eddi|zuHause2: in what language would you possibly WANT that?
11:30:33  <DJGummikuh> :D
11:30:42  <Eddi|zuHause2> you need prime numbers for lots of reasons :)
11:30:50  <DJGummikuh> hmm agreed

11:32:37  <DJGummikuh> what I did not understand until today: is it random how industries change output or can I somehow manipulate that?

11:59:19  <Eddi|zuHause2> in the worst case, grep the source code :)

12:55:55  <boekabart> (by not taking this approach, by the way).
12:56:07  <peter1138> boekabart: with that you're still telling it what to draw, including loading and looking up sprites
12:56:49  <boekabart> TheJosh: http://paste.openttd.org/87
12:57:26  <boekabart> peter1138: looking up, yes, loading, no (that's done in DrawSprite or GfxMainBlitter i think)
12:57:43  <Nickman> blathijs: http://pastebin.ca/547585 any idea?
12:59:33  <boekabart> peter1138: obviously, the EmptyRenderer returns immediately on all calls. (or returning a dummy value)
13:00:30  <peter1138> you can save a lot of processing by returning early in ViewportDraw
13:00:41  <TheJosh> boekabart: still segfaults. that function does other stuff with te after the loop
13:00:47  <peter1138> you can save even more by not calling doing anything with windows at all
13:01:03  <TheJosh> things like "te->string_id = msg;"
13:01:15  <TheJosh> am I asking at a bad time?
13:01:36  <boekabart> TheJosh: are you sure the _list... is not NULL there?
13:02:31  <TheJosh> how do you output an error?
13:02:42  <TheJosh> printf?

13:19:12  <TheJosh> "texteff.cpp:284: error: request for member 'string_id' in 'te', which is of non-class type 'TextEffect*'"
13:19:19  <Eddi|zuHause2> e.g. why is it te.string_id once, and te->string_id the other time?
13:19:33  <TheJosh> 284 is line 14
13:20:38  <Nickman> te is a pointer, replace te te. with te-> on line 14 and try again
13:20:44  <TheJosh> changed te.string_id to te->string_id
13:20:50  <Nickman> and?
13:20:53  <TheJosh> it compiles, runs, doenst segfault
13:21:02  <TheJosh> but also does nothing (the array is not updated)
13:21:03  <Nickman> tada ;)
13:21:05  <Nickman> hehe :D
13:21:18  <TheJosh> the function does not work
13:21:20  <Nickman> where does it have to add it?
13:21:40  <TheJosh> to the array.
13:21:43  <Nickman> what array needs to be updated?
13:22:08  <Nickman> could you point me to the line where you update the array?
13:22:11  <TheJosh> the loop is to find a free spot in the array. i did not code this, i am just tryng to get it working with a dynamic array so i can have 25 or 1000 elements
13:22:26  <TheJosh> the original code did not have a update it used pointers i guess
13:23:01  <Nickman> so, in the for loop, you are looking for an empty spot?
13:23:05  <TheJosh> yes

13:25:01  <Nickman> and don't work with silly pointer?

14:22:39  <eekee> I'd sugest that it's either the wrong version of freetype, or more likely that it's installed somewhere that gcc isn't looking
14:24:15  <Nickman> hmmmm
14:24:20  <Nickman> this is the include path
14:24:21  <Nickman> -DWITH_FREETYPE -I/usr/include/freetype2
14:24:36  <Nickman> buth in that directory, there is only one map named freetype wich has all the files
14:24:38  <eekee> on my system ft2build.h is at /usr/include/ft2build.h, but I reemember some systems as having all the freetype stuff under /usr/X11R6
14:24:51  <Nickman> should I just get all those files out of there?
14:25:12  <eekee> you could try it
14:26:01  <Nickman> I think I found a misplaced file...
14:26:15  <colle> you shouldn't move those
14:26:20  <eekee> it's not in /usr/local/include/ is it? (Mind you, gcc should be looking there by default, iirc)
14:26:21  <colle> create a symlink instead
14:26:28  <Nickman> yep, now it contineus
14:26:33  <Rubidium> Windows and symlink
14:26:38  <colle> oh, windows
14:26:40  <colle> nevermind
14:26:41  <Rubidium> something they don't go together
14:26:43  <Nickman> it was in /usr/include
14:26:50  <eekee> o ok
14:26:56  <Nickman> I copyd the file into the freetype2 map
14:26:59  <Nickman> now it works

14:30:22  <boekabart> so, Nickman, you're on windows right

14:51:06  <geoffk> i had 2 almost same spec systems pIII's 32mb agp, one debian one ubuntu runnign pretty much same stuff, debian only had 128ram it coped pretty well ubuntu had 256mb ram and was much slower
14:51:08  <peter1138> it's called "gnome"
14:51:31  <Touqen> gnome is not for the faint of ram
14:51:35  <geoffk> yeah it could be gnome the problem, i use kde myself
14:51:37  <peter1138> once upon a time, linux desktops were called lightweight...
14:51:59  <peter1138> that was in the days of twm, rxvt and netscape 3

14:56:01  <geoffk> i also find ubuntu can be somewhat buggy and cause of some lenghtly problems to debug
14:56:27  <Rubidium> that happens when you're basically playing with Debian Unstable
14:56:40  <geoffk> Rubidium, indeed i much agree
14:57:01  <peter1138> hmm, 7.04 is pretty stable for me
14:57:16  <geoffk> it has its uses sometimes ubuntu, i had used servers on it which have more uptodate packages but now etch is here i don't need it
14:57:19  <Rubidium> Debian Unstable is pretty stable for me too ;)
14:59:07  <geoffk> i came accross a really odd bug with ubuntu building a xhtml doc creator in php on apache, soemthing was gong strangly wrong when viewing the doctype declearation in page source on a browser, thus failing validation
14:59:49  <geoffk> i tested everything on 2 other dostros, nothign wrong with what i was doing
14:59:55  <Nickman> so, what distro do you guys suggest?
15:00:09  <Rubidium> lfs
15:00:23  <Nickman> lfs?
15:00:30  <peter1138> i'd stick to debian for servers
15:00:33  <geoffk> debian for simple admin, slackware is my choice
15:00:35  <Nickman> for home PC :p
15:00:43  <peter1138> ubuntu
15:00:47  <Nickman> k ;)
15:00:48  <peter1138> cos it's easy peasy
15:00:52  <Nickman> hehe :D
15:00:54  <Nickman> I know
15:00:55  <geoffk> servers i tend to use debian desktop i go with slackware
15:00:58  <Nickman> Suse also...
15:00:59  <Rubidium> linux from scratch is so much more rewarding
15:01:01  <peter1138> maybe others are these days
15:01:08  <Nickman> All our PC at school have SUSE on it besides XP
15:01:10  <Rubidium> suse <==> microsoft
15:01:11  <peter1138> Rubidium: tedious, i though
15:01:13  <peter1138> +t
15:01:50  <peter1138> sort of like gentoo...
15:02:11  <geoffk> if you install debian etch for servers check out xen, i use it on all my server, i got various ubuntu, debian and slackware OS's running on top of it
15:02:56  <Rubidium> gentoo does all the stuff that would be rewarding of lfs for you

15:25:54  <eekee> I've used suse too, moderately liked it, much better than the red hat 7 I switched from. I'm inclined to think that the bitching against suse is a generic hate of corporations, which I don't agree with. I don't like MS because o the feeling of taking power away from the user, & there's plenty of linux distros that make me feel like that :s

17:43:43  <Nickman> can I use it to?
17:44:05  <Eddi|zuHause2> you could just edit rev.cpp
17:44:17  <Nickman> ah :)
17:44:56  <Eddi|zuHause2> but it is mostly cosmetic
17:45:14  <Nickman> it's to be able to test a patch on a server so...
17:45:28  <Eddi|zuHause2> just that you cannot determine network compatibility
17:45:44  <Eddi|zuHause2> you can join any server with norev000

17:56:28  <peter1138> http://www.swindonweb.com/life/lifemagi1.jpg
17:57:16  <skidd13> I'd say build a 2 level roundabout with inversed directions is much more efficent.
17:58:04  <peter1138> way more expensive though

18:01:59  <skidd13> I think it's horror to drive through them
18:02:45  <Wolf01> uhm, with 4 is easy...
18:04:10  <Eddi|zuHause2> people already got horror with our normal roundabout here
18:04:25  <hylje> hence they should TOTALLY build a magic roundabout
18:04:33  <hylje> ON A FRIGGING HIGHWAY
18:05:01  <Eddi|zuHause2> but it was totally easy to get through, just pick the right lane before entering, and you automatically get thrown out at the right exit
18:05:41  <Eddi|zuHause2> the problems were only you had to pay attention to the trams that were crossing at 3 points
18:06:35  <Eddi|zuHause2> but they totally rebuilt the place now
18:06:43  <Eddi|zuHause2> the tram is 1 level below the roundabout now
18:06:52  <Eddi|zuHause2> and they put up traffic lights at the entrances
18:06:55  <hylje> :o
18:07:12  <Eddi|zuHause2> you still have to pick the right lane before entering though :)
18:11:28  <Eddi|zuHause2> but to support skidd13's point, they added the additional level because there were lots of accidents
18:12:15  <Eddi|zuHause2> there were hardly any days that weren't like: "trams: 3, cars: 0"

18:19:49  <Belugas> :D
18:20:38  <hylje> just that we could have magic roundabouts
18:21:08  <Wolf01> i thought to kill this old road system and introduce something like rail system, but with more junctions, like: |- or |/ or |\
18:21:28  <hylje> merges!
18:21:41  <Wolf01> in substance a mix of roadpieces with railpieces

18:43:13  <Barry> Eddi : *.grf
18:43:51  <Eddi|zuHause2> there must be files like "trg1r.grf"

18:44:30  <Barry> 2ccmap.grf

18:45:31  <Eddi|zuHause2> trg?r.grf and sample.cat
18:45:57  <Wolf01> Barry, if the installed version works with no errors, you must extract the nightly in order to overwrite the installed files to get it work

It's the railline between Otsu and Kyoto and they couldn't fit the tracks the last way to the station, so they put them on the road in a tram like way. However it's so much a railroad that every time it crosses a road intersection, then it activates a railroad crossing system
19:26:45  <Eddi|zuHause2> trams often get priority at signalled crossings here

19:59:41  <Sacro> until you get to the ECML

20:00:00  <Bjarni> and really high voltage like 25 kV

20:00:27  <peter1138> london underground tunnels that is
20:00:28  <hylje> hence underground systems tend to be 3rd rail
20:00:47  <peter1138> nah, 4th rail's where it's at ;)
20:00:49  <Bjarni> hylje: they use rails for 0V and then they have two rails for two different voltages (4 in total). Makes sense when you know how to make high power DC engines
20:01:05  <peter1138> i'm sure they'd use diesel on the underground if it wasn't for the fumes...
20:01:19  <Bjarni> heh, they used to use steam
20:01:26  <peter1138> yeah
20:01:37  <Sacro> diesel on the underground?
20:01:38  <Bjarni> for more than 30 years

20:01:42  <hylje> steam!
20:01:44  <Sacro> they do have battery trains though
20:02:03  <peter1138> mind you, the london underground used to come out to where i live now, and further
20:02:10  <peter1138> back in the '60s i think
20:02:17  <hylje> :o
20:02:20  <peter1138> that's like 60 miles or so out of london
20:02:25  <Bjarni> batteries sucks though... It's far from an ideal solution since they take ages to charge and the efficiency could do with an improvement
20:02:37  <hylje> degradation
20:03:49  <Bjarni> <peter1138> Bjarni: not very practical in tunnels <-- this is the UK problem. They made their tunnels way too small. When we needed catenary, the tunnels were big enough to just add it inside
20:04:08  <peter1138> in an underground system?
20:04:16  <peter1138> i don't mean normal tunnels :)
20:04:17  <Bjarni> well, almost. The stuff to hold the wire isn't standard, but some smaller ones
20:04:21  <peter1138> i see
20:04:27  <hylje> catenary tunnels are hueg
20:04:39  <Bjarni> I'm talking about the the tunnel below Copenhagen

20:05:22  <Eddi|zuHause2> one of the early lines in southern germany that got electrificated, the dug out 20cm from beneath the rail to be able to add catenary
20:05:24  <Bjarni> naturally when talking about the catenary, I bring up a picture of a steam train xD

20:07:52  <Bjarni> I heard a story about an English line. They replaced the tracks (they were old) and they started the DMUs again. Everything was fine until like a month later or so when a steam train passed though a tunnel on the line. Since they used to fit perfectly, they were in high speed, but the engine was a bit higher than the DMUs and the new track was a bit higher than the old one, so the engine lost both funnel and roof :o
20:08:22  <Bjarni> talk about how close they used to drive to the ceiling in the tunnel o_O
20:08:56  <Bjarni> it's actually bad to make so small tunnels for steam. Where should the smoke go?
20:08:58  <Eddi|zuHause2> i have been in london... the underground train was exactly in the shape of the tunnel...
20:09:27  <Eddi|zuHause2> there was no space left
20:10:42  <peter1138> yeah
20:10:47  <peter1138> unless it's a cut&shut tunnel
20:10:58  <peter1138> like the circle line
20:11:15  <peter1138> then it feels like a regular station but at night

20:28:12  <Bjarni> when the trains move though the tunnels, they push a whole lot of air in front of them. It would actually be easier for them to move if the tunnels were bigger so they could push the air into the sides of the train instead of pushing it in front of them. This makes the wind blow on the platforms when a train is approaching

20:31:20  <Sacro> no
20:31:23  <ln-> yes

21:08:15  <De_Ghost> that makes no sense to me
21:08:18  <De_Ghost> is that english?
21:08:59  <peter1138> Wolf01: ARGGGGH
21:09:11  <peter1138> Wolf01: i started up a toyland game. it makes no sense ;(
21:09:15  <Eddi|zuHause2> De_Ghost: [industry tile] [empty tile] [industry tile]
21:10:09  <peter1138> XeryusTC: which industry? i can't see it :/

21:10:26  <Eddi|zuHause2> and you should excuse Wolf01's english... he's italian, or stupid (or both...)
21:10:43  <XeryusTC> peter1138: dunno, was very long ago that i've seen it
21:11:06  <peter1138> the sugar mine is high up but you can't go through it
21:12:07  <peter1138> hehe, the bubble generator probably contains the most animation ever in ttd :p
21:12:51  <Wolf01> XeryusTC, are you sure it didn't is a little village? all is so similar in toyland :P
21:13:28  <Belugas> actually, peter1138, i think it is the sugar mine.  96 different animation steps
21:13:32  <Belugas> but i could be wrong...
21:13:43  <XeryusTC> Wolf01: it is possible
21:14:12  <Belugas> but agreed, toyland has the most animated industries of all climates
21:14:13  <peter1138> 96! :o
21:14:25  <Wolf01> or maybe 2 close plastic fountains
21:14:26  <peter1138> hmm, yeah, you might be right
21:17:05  <XeryusTC> i think it was some toy thing :P
21:17:15  <XeryusTC> it had a conveyor belt or sth
21:17:47  <Wolf01> the toy factory
21:18:14  <Wolf01> ok, this little search of industries on toyland made me blind...
21:19:40  <Wolf01> 'night

21:22:12  <peter1138> you know
21:22:20  <peter1138> probably the AI will do really well in toyland :p

21:23:06  <Bjarni> why would it do well in toyland when it sucks everywhere else?
21:23:16  <peter1138> exactly
21:23:53  <Bjarni> I don't like the AI anyway
21:24:06  <Bjarni> somebody could change it and I wouldn't notice
21:24:11  <Bjarni> it's always off
21:24:17  <peter1138> well
21:24:21  <peter1138> i think someone has :p
21:24:31  <peter1138> it's certainly crapper than it used to be
21:26:24  <Eddi|zuHause2> apart from building totally crappy layouts, the AI almost never went bankrupt in my TTO games

21:26:40  <Eddi|zuHause2> but i haven't played against AI in at least 10 years now :p
21:30:22  <Bjarni> I think we kind of messed with it... I mean we modified commands and stuff and it could have made it even worse
