08:28:32  * andythenorth wonders how planes choose different sprites for take off / level flight
08:29:05  <andythenorth> can't see any special action 3 handling in the spec

08:36:33  <dihedral> you could check how its done in av8
08:38:05  <andythenorth> ho
08:38:14  <andythenorth> I'll just invent something - this is for ships anyway :)
08:38:35  <dihedral> i did not know they fly

08:42:24  <andythenorth> dihedral: hydrofoils ;)
08:42:37  <andythenorth> I guess it is actually flying of a sort
08:45:13  <andythenorth> hydrofoils should 'taxi' as they get close to a dock :P
08:45:17  <andythenorth> state machine...
08:48:36  <andythenorth> someone should have cookies for design of standard action 1 / 2 /3
08:50:34  <dihedral> either that - or you define them as planes which need special airports / runways :-)
08:50:53  <andythenorth> water planes?
08:50:55  <andythenorth> hmm
08:50:56  <andythenorth> could work
08:51:02  <andythenorth> they might fly a bit high...
08:52:04  <dihedral> hehe
08:52:13  <dihedral> yes and they could then fly over land too :-P
08:52:33  <andythenorth> maybe hovercraft should be planes :P
08:52:53  <andythenorth> but with a new cb to specify altitude
08:53:02  * andythenorth ponders reading plane code
08:53:26  <dihedral> nah - making them planes is not correct ;-)
08:53:44  <dihedral> you'd lave at seeing a hydrofoil passing over houses :-P

11:16:27  <TheDirtyOne> why does OTTD look for the config and content at my documents?

11:17:13  *** Fast2 [~Fast2@p57AF96E4.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #openttd
11:18:20  <TheDirtyOne> so for valid installation I do this: Unpack OTTD to the folder in my documents tat it wants to use, unpack the opengfx to data.
11:18:59  *** Progman [~progman@p57A1B1D4.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #openttd
11:20:39  <Terkhen> it looks at another places too, check the readme
11:21:05  *** ecke [~ecke@188.75.128.2] has joined #openttd
11:21:12  <Terkhen> and OpenTTD can be unpacked anywhere, it does not need to be at that folder
11:25:52  <TheDirtyOne> it checks at its install place, but prioritizes my documents and creates the config there
11:27:07  <Alberth> it has to create the config someplace
11:27:28  <TheDirtyOne> so why does it create it into documents, not into itself?
11:27:40  <Alberth> but read the readme, it has detailed explanations on what it all does
11:28:17  <Alberth> I guess becauses of shared installs
11:28:26  <TheDirtyOne> and there's one more weirdness - sound/music
11:29:21  <TheDirtyOne> ottd with legacy pack (full with sfx) takes the same space as openttd with opengfx alone
11:36:13  *** einKarl [~einKarl@77-23-166-116-dynip.superkabel.de] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
11:37:00  <Terkhen> TheDirtyOne: the installer is not intended for creating portable installations
11:37:06  *** andythenorth [~andy@cpc9-aztw25-2-0-cust133.aztw.cable.virginmedia.com] has joined #openttd
11:37:33  <Terkhen> download the zip archive and use its own data folder if you want to have everything in the same folder
11:38:06  <Terkhen> but IMO having them in the My documents folders is more useful, then you don't lose your data and savegames if you reinstall
11:42:04  <TheDirtyOne> Terkhen: zip tries that too.
11:42:32  <Terkhen> you need an openttd.cfg file there too
11:43:00  <Terkhen> as I said, check the readme
11:43:01  *** KenjiE20 [~KenjiE20@92.11.14.158] has joined #openttd
11:43:38  <TheDirtyOne> zip just lacks the cfg
11:44:00  <TheDirtyOne> just one empty file with .cfg extension.
11:44:11  <Alberth> no, otherwise it would overwrite an existing cfg
11:44:17  <Alberth> and it gets created anyway
11:44:43  <TheDirtyOne> it gets created in documents automatically
11:45:34  <TheDirtyOne> is there a switch to make it into exe's folder?
11:45:34  <Terkhen> meh
11:45:50  <Terkhen> believe me, it's all explained in the readme
11:47:14  <TheDirtyOne> oh, 1.05 got rid of this - files get found even with an outside cfg
11:50:24  <Alberth> way way before that version already, actually, afaik
11:53:25  <TheDirtyOne> and why are there 2 music files in content system?

11:53:44  <TheDirtyOne> openmsx and anthology-something
11:53:45  <Alberth> so you have a choice
11:54:26  <TheDirtyOne> is OTTD compatible with patched MIDIs?
11:55:19  <planetmaker> depends upon what you call a 'patched midi'
11:55:32  <TheDirtyOne> FeelSound patching
12:00:48  <TheDirtyOne> MIDIs fixed by instrument swapping and patched with FeelSound using PSMPlayer - http://psmplayer.com

12:03:05  <TheDirtyOne> fixing might be needed for MIDIs with bad instrument codes, and so on...
12:03:42  <planetmaker> Should work to just modify an existing midi
12:03:46  <Alberth> I have no clue at all what that means
12:05:12  <TheDirtyOne> planetmaker: PSMPlayer makes fixing/feelsound patching easy
12:05:45  <planetmaker> I've not heart of any of those tools, sorry
12:06:03  <TheDirtyOne> I managed, over chat, to guide one person to fixing the MIDI file that was causing MIDI library misinterpreting instruments.
12:06:18  <TheDirtyOne> Just get PSMPlayer - it's very small.
12:06:25  <TheDirtyOne> http://psmplayer.com
12:08:14  <Alberth> we have had enough commercials now, thank you
12:10:06  <planetmaker> oh no. definitely not. and not for my OS
12:10:39  <TheDirtyOne> it's not advertising. It's a win32 app to work with MIDIs.
12:12:07  <planetmaker> see. the point. Nothing which is remotely usable for me
12:12:11  <Alberth> whatever, nobody is interested

14:16:25  <andythenorth> 1C
14:16:38  <andythenorth> or a new action 0 prop is needed
14:16:55  <frosch123> if trains have no flag for 1d, rv should not have one either
14:17:01  <andythenorth> hmm
14:17:03  <Terkhen> using 17 would be the most desirable option, yes
14:17:15  <andythenorth> frosch123: that presents an interesting conundrum
14:17:31  <Terkhen> yes, as it makes sense that the default behaviour is identical to what we have now
14:17:31  <andythenorth> that means either all RVs become attachable, or none
14:17:59  <frosch123> "none" of course?
14:18:21  <andythenorth> so every single vehicle that is attachable has to explicitly handle cb 1D?
14:18:30  <andythenorth> bleargh
14:18:41  <frosch123> just as every train vehicle which is not attachable, right?
14:18:49  <Terkhen> but wouldn't that make handling of the CB different between trains and road vehicles?
14:19:07  <andythenorth> frosch123: train vehicles are attachable by default though?
14:19:15  <andythenorth> so the inverse :)
14:19:30  <frosch123> Terkhen: usually "failed callback" is defines as "default behaviour as if the cb was not enabled"
14:19:35  * andythenorth wonders what fraction of road vehicles *should* be attachable
14:19:44  <frosch123> so, it is perfectly fine, if failed cb means different things for trains and rv
14:19:53  <andythenorth> buses generally probably aren't attachable
14:19:55  <Terkhen> yes, that's what I meant
14:20:00  <andythenorth> trucks don't attach to each other
14:20:10  <Terkhen> I guess they would only differ on the handling of "failed cb"
14:20:12  <andythenorth> so basically trailers would need to handle CB1D to become trailers
14:20:18  <Terkhen> andythenorth: none by default
14:20:25  <frosch123> in fact, it would be uncommon if failing cb 1d for rv would allow attaching
14:20:33  <andythenorth> ok
14:20:44  <andythenorth> do it the other way - explicitly enable attaching
14:20:45  <andythenorth> fail by default
14:21:19  <frosch123> andythenorth: actually i see no point in generally allowing any attaching
14:21:28  <frosch123> that would allow attaching a bus to a truck engine
14:21:38  <andythenorth> yes
14:22:18  <frosch123> just take a look at the tons of complains, that trains allow attaching wagons from other grfs
14:22:29  <Terkhen> my preference for adding a callback flag was for not handling the CB1D differently, but I don't really mind if it is only the failed cb result
14:22:45  <frosch123> if rv engines allow attaching busses from other sets, that will certainly cause a lot of trouble
14:22:46  <andythenorth> frosch123  there are probably as many complaints the other way? :P
14:22:50  <andythenorth> anyway, I'm convinced
14:22:53  <andythenorth> by your argument
14:23:16  <andythenorth> so I should change the spec - default is to fail with the default message
14:24:18  *** ZirconiumX [561b9bc6@ircip2.mibbit.com] has joined #openttd
14:24:27  <frosch123> not sure. i guess there is some difference between attaching rvs and trains
14:25:01  <frosch123> while you can attach most rv wagons to any rv which can accept some wagon, you usually cannot attach multiple rv engines
14:25:24  <andythenorth> I think that would have to be handled by the newgrf author
14:25:31  <frosch123> just because your truck can pull any trailer, it cannot pull every engine
14:25:55  <andythenorth> http://pastebin.com/9Yh9kRDs
14:26:12  <frosch123> so, maybe multiheaded-compatible could be a misc flag for rv
14:26:27  <frosch123> i.e. most engines can only be put at the front, not as secondary engines
14:26:35  <andythenorth> I can think of edge cases where multi-headed RVs are desirable
14:26:40  <andythenorth> but they are definitely non-standard
14:27:03  <Terkhen> IIRC for starters we were going to disallow all multiheaded
14:27:05  *** ZirconiumX [561b9bc6@ircip2.mibbit.com] has quit []
14:27:13  <Terkhen> introducing a flag latter for those special cases would make sense
14:28:45  <andythenorth> really we could live without them
14:29:16  <andythenorth> Terkhen: don't we need to disallow them under the current RV acceleration model?
14:29:22  <andythenorth> RVs can't have powered trailing vehicles yes / no?
14:29:51  <Terkhen> I don't remember how is that handled, but since the code between trains and road vehicles is unified the change required should be minimal
14:30:11  <frosch123> andythenorth: articulated parts are never powered for consistency
14:30:20  <frosch123> that does not hold for separately attached things
14:30:29  <andythenorth> ok
14:30:45  <andythenorth> but would there be any harm in the spec saying "'Engines' cannot be attached as trailing vehicles. "
14:30:49  <andythenorth> ?
14:31:13  <frosch123> i guess not
14:31:34  <devilsadvocate> in RV, you mean?
14:31:36  <frosch123> am i right, that multiheaded rv usually consist of the same type of engine, i.e. are more like multiple-unit trains?
14:31:36  <andythenorth> means I can't add multiple bulldozers to a consist :P
14:31:55  <frosch123> and train MUs are not done via attaching multiple engines these days
14:32:04  <andythenorth> frosch123: multi-headed RVs are basically some form of heavy-haulage unit
14:32:19  <andythenorth> it would be 'nice' to be able to attach them, but not necessary

14:47:59  <planetmaker> there's a powered wagon CB

14:54:19  <andythenorth> frosch123: I am confused :) do you make case for or against having powered wagon cb?
14:54:22  <planetmaker> wagons are attached to mus
14:54:24  <frosch123> esp. as i dislike pax transporation and usually only do cargo
14:54:52  <frosch123> andythenorth: i am agains attaching multiple tram engines to make trams longer
14:54:53  <planetmaker> and they can have a powered wagon CB and thus provide power.
14:55:37  <andythenorth> I think it would be weird to have a 'tram' and then a 'fake tram'
14:56:01  <frosch123> andythenorth: how do you control the length of the tram?
14:56:13  <frosch123> do you attach multiple engines of each 3 articulated parts
14:56:18  <andythenorth> yes
14:56:33  <frosch123> or do you build one front, and then attach 5 wagons, which are partially powered
14:56:51  *** ZirconiumX [561b9bc6@ircip1.mibbit.com] has joined #openttd
14:56:55  <andythenorth> articulated trams seem like fixed units to me
14:57:18  <frosch123> the latter is done by most train sets, the former is done by e.g. the csd train set
14:57:28  <frosch123> take a look at it, i consider it crappy gameplay :)
14:57:52  <andythenorth> so powered wagon cb is needed?
14:58:00  <frosch123> you want to control the length of trams with single wagons, not in bunches of 3 parts
14:58:17  <planetmaker> callback <whatever> defines "can wagon be attached"
14:58:18  <frosch123> andythenorth: not necessarily, there are multiple ways to code that
14:58:32  <planetmaker> that'd be what trains do
14:58:39  <frosch123> planetmaker: that part is easy, it is more about, "this engine can be attached to some other"
14:58:42  <frosch123> i.e. the reverse
14:58:52  <planetmaker> it's the same callback, though
14:58:59  * andythenorth is condused: how to add powered wagons without powered wagon cb ?
14:59:01  <planetmaker> it goes by ID - IIRC
14:59:06  <frosch123> just because you have a truck which can pull every trailer, it does not mean you can attach another truck to it
14:59:12  * Terkhen is confused by the same reason :)
14:59:19  <frosch123> planetmaker: but it is only from the pov of the front, not of the wagon
14:59:44  * andythenorth supposes consist length could be checked and hp adjusted accordingly?
14:59:47  <planetmaker> frosch123, true. But IIRC that works by ID, and you return the CB for 'can attach' true for those vehIDs which you like
14:59:58  <planetmaker> yes, from the engine, indeed
15:00:52  <frosch123> planetmaker: sure, but again: you do not ask the engine which is going to be attached
15:01:11  <frosch123> and that problem is bigger for rv than for trains
15:01:38  <frosch123> for trains it is mostly only about mixing grfs
15:02:15  <planetmaker> frosch123, maybe I did something wrong. But "MU" is an engine property with a CB where I add the singe wagon IDs which I want to allow
15:02:33  <planetmaker> It's quite limited, doesn't allow cross-grf-talk, but... well. It's ok
15:02:40  <Terkhen> bbl
15:03:03  <andythenorth> I thought the wagon being attached would check for IDs in the rest of the consist.
15:03:09  <frosch123> planetmaker: that part is fine. but now think about the reverse
15:03:21  <andythenorth> if all of those IDs are allowed, allow attaching
15:03:36  <planetmaker> uhm, yes? You mean a wagon which asks whether it wants to be able to be attached?
15:03:39  <planetmaker> Not possible afaik.
15:03:46  <frosch123> planetmaker: exactly
15:03:54  <frosch123> and i think that is important for rv
15:04:03  <planetmaker> uhm... is it?
15:04:06  <frosch123> but it might also be of use for trains
15:04:17  <planetmaker> yes, if for both, please ;-)
15:04:51  * andythenorth had misunderstood cb1D
15:04:56  <planetmaker> indeed, thinking of it, you're right. It just need both: can be attached and wants to be attached

15:05:24  <planetmaker> or better: can tow / can be towed
15:06:20  <andythenorth> some kind of friend / foes list :P
15:06:23  <maddy_> seems gui windows are of type "struct" in current version, but my patch uses "class", will that be a prob?
15:06:58  <frosch123> some compilers complain about deriving struct from class and vice versa
15:07:19  <planetmaker> andythenorth, nah, not explicitly. Just a callback to the (already existing) consist with "can I tow (more)" and another to the new vehicle which reads "can i be towed"
15:07:19  <frosch123> (iirc)
15:08:27  <andythenorth> planetmaker: if checking other vehicle IDs...it will come to a friends / foes list, but in a varaction 2 :D
15:09:21  <fonsinchen> hrm ... refactor smallmap to split out linkgraph overlay in a clean == produce a huge pile of trivial diff
15:09:32  <fonsinchen> not split out linkgraph overlay == ugly
15:10:20  <planetmaker> trivial diffs are more or less easy to review ;-)
15:10:44  <Terkhen> I'm a bit confused about this callback talk, I should try to code something with it before wondering how to make it work
15:10:58  <andythenorth> Terkhen: a train thing?
15:11:00  <fonsinchen> And it's a lot of boring work to produce them.
15:11:03  <andythenorth> or an RV thing?
15:12:58  <fonsinchen> well ... time to create some new branches
15:14:57  <andythenorth> frosch123: so if there was a new cb like 1D, but for the vehicle being attached...
15:15:09  <andythenorth> ....a special flag for 'allow multiple engines per consist' is not needed
15:18:48  <frosch123> yup
15:19:45  <andythenorth> is it a new cb, or a modification of 1D?
15:20:05  <andythenorth> I guess a new cb
15:21:13  <Terkhen> andythenorth: yes
15:21:54  <andythenorth> 15C?

18:10:26  <peter1138> parent = head of chain
18:11:40  <andythenorth_> ok
18:11:55  <Rubidium> looks like that callback is "special" in the way that it passes the parent instead of getting the parent from the vehicle
18:12:18  <Rubidium> which makes sense as it's not yet connected, although NewGRFs assume it to be connected for the test
18:12:22  <andythenorth_> and the actual logic for 'allowed / not allowed' -> return value is all in nfo?
18:12:29  <Rubidium> yes
18:12:31  <andythenorth_> and the cb just gets back a value from a varaction 2 ?

18:57:44  <frosch123> not 'head'

20:38:29  <frosch123> that makes use of some downwards-compatibility thing
20:38:48  <frosch123> imagine there would be a callback 0x123
20:38:57  <andythenorth_> I'll amend
20:38:58  <frosch123> you would put it in the 0x23 case
20:39:32  <frosch123> that's the reason why cb numbering jumped from 3d to 140 :)
20:40:12  <frosch123> everyone was only testing the byte, so when cb 00 to ff would have been assigned, you would be screwed when adding 100
20:42:13  <andythenorth_> 15E is 01 5E
20:42:19  <andythenorth_> or 15 E0?

21:03:12  <frosch123> t is the wagon

21:03:35  <planetmaker> that depends
21:04:25  <andythenorth_> ha
21:04:39  <andythenorth_> this might just work :)
21:07:52  <frosch123> on rereading. i guess you need to use GetVehicleCallbackParent() instead of GetVehicleCallback() for this callback as well. looks like the wagon is not attached while calling the callback
21:08:04  <frosch123> but that should not hurt your testgrf

21:09:39  <andythenorth_> there is an odd edge case I just found with a savegame
21:09:47  <andythenorth_> so I have enabled 15E for a rail vehicle
21:10:00  <andythenorth_> and return FD to prevent attach
21:10:10  <andythenorth_> but in my savegame these vehicles are already in a consist
21:10:23  <andythenorth_> I can't take vehicles out of the consist to an empty line in depot
21:10:40  <andythenorth_> it's correct

21:19:07  <andythenorth_> the defines (constants?) names should be cleaned up
21:19:39  <frosch123> andythenorth_: you seem to need GetVehicleCallbackParent(), so the parent scope is set up correctly
21:20:05  <andythenorth_> CBID_TRAIN_ALLOW_WAGON_ATTACH is too train specific
21:20:05  <andythenorth_> CBID_WAGON_ALLOW_ATTACH_TO_CONSIST implies specific to wagons
21:20:37  <frosch123> grf version 8 will change all those 0xfd, fe, ff special results, and replace them with >= 400, so you can use all D4xx text itds
21:21:01  <andythenorth_> what's the issue?   Some varacts will fail if they reference (e.g. 82)?
21:21:13  <frosch123> i am not sure whether it is better to do that in advance for new callbacks, or whether it is better to make cb 1d and 15e consistent
21:21:46  <frosch123> andythenorth_: the cb is called while the wagon is not attached, so parent scope will refer to the wagon as well
21:21:55  <frosch123> so you cannot access the head
21:22:01  <andythenorth_> ok
21:22:12  <andythenorth_> do I need to use head->engine_type in params?
21:22:19  <andythenorth_> instead of t->engine_type
21:24:46  <frosch123> no
21:24:58  <andythenorth_> but I do need to add head to params?
21:24:58  <frosch123> you need to append head as the additional parameter to the other function
21:25:02  <andythenorth_> or it doesn't compile :)
21:25:16  <andythenorth_> 			uint16 callback2 = GetVehicleCallbackParent(CBID_WAGON_ALLOW_ATTACH_TO_CONSIST, 0, 0, t->engine_type, t, head);
21:25:18  <andythenorth_> seems to work
21:25:25  <frosch123> :)
21:25:30  <andythenorth_> callback2 looks like a silly name to me
21:26:07  <frosch123> i guess keep the cb results as they are
21:26:15  <andythenorth_> ok
21:26:29  <andythenorth_> so should I clean up the var names callback and callback2?
21:26:38  <andythenorth_> I don't really know the ruling style :P
21:26:44  <frosch123> if you can come up with good ones :) i cannot :p

21:27:19  <andythenorth_> cb_result_1, cb_result_2
21:27:38  <frosch123> then i prefer wagon_callback and engine_callback
21:28:18  <andythenorth_> fine by me
21:28:37  <andythenorth_> my code always has very long var names, which seems to bother other people :)
21:30:18  <andythenorth_> CBID_TRAIN_ALLOW_WAGON_ATTACH <- is that define or a constan?

21:37:23  <frosch123> what?

21:39:50  <frosch123> CBID_TRAIN_ALLOW_WAGON_ATTACH is an enumeration value

21:56:50  <andythenorth_> it may time out :o
21:58:29  <andythenorth_> frosch123: I was just thinking about rv-wagon attachment
21:58:55  <andythenorth_> if there were several truck sets, it might worth providing a way for trailers in one to be compatible with trailers in another...
21:59:14  <andythenorth_> i.e. a system of labels + a translation table
21:59:24  <Terkhen> :O
21:59:31  <Terkhen> that sounds scary
22:00:20  <andythenorth_> for articulated (fifth wheel trucks) it would need the graphics to be highly standardised
22:00:34  <andythenorth_> for drawbar (conventional) trailers it would work quite easily
22:00:56  <andythenorth_> frosch123: fs updated http://bugs.openttd.org/task/4437
22:01:24  <andythenorth_> Terkhen: I now understand attachment a little better :)
22:03:00  <Terkhen> I'm not sure that's good news if that understanding leads to scary stuff like labels :P
22:03:13  <andythenorth_> forget them for now :)
22:03:29  <Terkhen> ok :)
22:04:14  * andythenorth_ wonders why it wasn't suggested before by anyone
22:04:37  <andythenorth_> it would be a way to provide cross-grf attachment rules without having to check grfids
22:05:56  <Terkhen> how many labels would that need?
22:06:02  <andythenorth_> I'm not sure
22:06:19  <andythenorth_> cargo labels have (mostly) worked because mb is very anal about them
22:06:20  <andythenorth_> which is useful
22:06:41  <andythenorth_> rail type labels are...unproven wrt to how useful they are + whether they will degrade
22:06:51  <andythenorth_> for rvs...let me think
22:07:21  <Terkhen> the issue I'm seeing is that you can have many more engines than cargo types, so you would need much more labels
22:07:44  <frosch123> andythenorth_: currently every fool defines his own rail labels, though you cannot necessarily tell the difference
22:08:40  <andythenorth_> for trucks it would really only be 'articulated' and 'drawbar'
22:09:29  <andythenorth_> anything relating to cargos for example should be handled by varaction 2 in cb 15E, not by esoteric labels
22:09:46  <andythenorth_> trams shouldn't need labels
22:10:03  <andythenorth_> farm tractors and other odd vehicles would need a bit of thought
22:11:13  <andythenorth_> it would need to check the vehicle being attached to, not the lead vehicle
22:11:24  <andythenorth_> it would also need to then check the following vehicle to
22:11:26  <andythenorth_> hmm
22:11:43  <Terkhen> :)
22:12:20  <andythenorth_> it's basically to do with how vehicles are physically coupled together
22:13:55  <andythenorth_> a smart newgrf author might be able to handle it all with graphics....
22:14:27  <andythenorth_> but the graphics would need to depend on the preceeding vehicle
22:17:17  <Terkhen> I think this is quite subjective
22:17:35  <Terkhen> unless there is some kind of unified view everybody will do whatever he wants with the labels
22:17:36  <andythenorth_> I think it's down to newgrf authors to handle
22:17:42  <andythenorth_> no labels
22:17:57  <Terkhen> also, engines are not as standarized as cargos or railtypes
22:18:24  <andythenorth_> it will produce the interesting result that truck sets will be incompatible with each other
22:18:39  <andythenorth_> i.e. truck in set A can't haul trailers from set B
22:18:59  <andythenorth_> but that's better than no rv-wagons at all

23:47:43  <Rubidium> as it'd basically only be rebuilt when there's a new gcc, and then OpenTTD would be rebuilt in any case
23:47:43  *** Wolf01 [~wolf01@host179-63-dynamic.2-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
23:47:57  <Rubidium> likewise for libpng (as OpenTTD depends on that as well)
23:48:44  <Ammler> maybe you are right :-) (and lucky)
23:48:51  <Rubidium> even though it's completely unneeded for OpenTTD to be recompiled when libpng gets updated, except when the API/ABI changes in such a way it's not binary compatible anymore
23:49:00  <Ammler> but you see, that the warning about it is legal?
23:49:39  <Rubidium> Ammler: but... my point is: how would you know which of the many rebuilds you have, and as such what library/compiler/whatnot it's compiled with
23:49:41  <Ammler> Rubidium: it is good to know, if openttd does still build with newer libpng
23:50:15  <Rubidium> Ammler: in 99% of the cases newer is just some additions or internal library changes
23:50:58  <Rubidium> they better spend a few days in analysing the library, than to spend a load of time into making packages not use some arbitrary defines
23:51:30  <Ammler> hehe
23:51:44  <Rubidium> for what it's worth, we list the gcc and library versions as well in the crash log
23:52:18  <Rubidium> so if *any* of those are updated the data in the crash log will change
23:52:30  <Ammler> those are legal changes
23:53:00  <Ammler> Rubidium: just imagine, we would use build date and time for the newgrfs
23:53:30  *** supermop [~daniel_er@82-69-99-113.dsl.in-addr.zen.co.uk] has joined #openttd
23:53:38  <Rubidium> Ammler: to counter that, then we'd be storing the version of grfcodec in the NewGRF as well
23:54:02  *** PUB|lightekk is now known as lightekk
23:54:39  <Ammler> yes, we know, why you don't :-)
23:54:53  *** perk11 [~perk11@81.17.157.195] has quit [Quit: Miranda IM! Smaller, Faster, Easier. http://miranda-im.org]
23:55:07  <Rubidium> Ammler: but if they don't like __DATE__ and such, we could just rebuild rev.cpp each time and inject the date into there so their system doesn't notice it
23:55:50  <Ammler> nah, that would just hide the error
23:55:59  <Ammler> as said, I can ignore it, no issue
23:56:40  <Ammler> I was just wondering, why the newest rpmlint does warn about and got the answer
23:57:07  *** lightekk is now known as DRUNK|lightekk
23:57:22  <Rubidium> openttd.i586: W: no-manual-page-for-binary openttd
23:57:26  <Rubidium> what?
23:57:50  <Ammler> that is because I splitted the package for dedicated binary
23:57:58  <Ammler> so the man page is in data
23:58:05  <Ammler> subpackage*
23:59:31  <__ln__> *split, split, split
23:59:43  <Ammler> that is something I could bugreport
