09:36:03  <lugo> hi
09:36:24  <lugo> when translating string STR_CARGO_UNIT_COFFEE from FIRS, i have a problem
09:36:46  <lugo> Singular would be Sack Kaffee, plural would be SÀcke Kaffee
09:37:45  <lugo> so with {P 0 "" ?} i can only add letters, can i replace the whole word too?
09:38:36  <__ln__> by giving the whole word?
09:38:48  *** andythenorth [~Andy@194.168.185.226] has left #openttd []

09:52:39  <lugo> mmh i'd really need to know the concept or in-game use of STR_STATION_???? to find suitable translations...
09:53:21  * lugo summons andthenorth
09:53:37  <lugo> we just need to say his name 3 times
09:55:04  <Terkhen> waiting a random amount of time also works
09:55:44  <maddy_> andythenorth left just after you asked the question, possibly to escape the necessity of answering it

09:56:08  <Terkhen> lugo: STR_STATION_ strings are the names used for stations that are placed nearby the related industry

09:58:13  <lugo> Terkhen: with appendixes like i.e. north, valley, ..?
09:58:24  <Terkhen> no, the string is the appendix
09:58:38  <lugo> ok
09:58:47  <Terkhen> {TOWNNAME} Fish Market, {TOWNNAME} Tanner Road and so on
09:58:53  * Terkhen wonders what Tanner Road means
09:58:57  <lugo> i see, thank you
09:59:05  <Terkhen> I should probably update my translation soon too
09:59:06  <lugo> that i'm also wondering :)
09:59:11  <Terkhen> you are welcome :)
09:59:12  <Terkhen> bbl
10:05:22  <krinn> hi
10:15:19  <planetmaker> lugo, sure, yo ucan replace in plurals anything
10:15:31  <planetmaker> S{P 0 "ack" "Àcke"}
10:16:02  <planetmaker> even {P 0 "nix geht" "vieles geht"}
10:22:07  <Eddi|zuHause> lugo: for the station names, the only condition is that no two names may be the same

10:26:33  <lugo> planetmaker, Eddi|zuHause thanks
10:27:18  <lugo> i'm thinking about "Leuna" for Portland, but i have no ideas for Tanner Road  (mining) or James Watt Street (heavy industry)
10:28:48  <lugo> well, just "Chemiepark" instead of Leuna i guess...
10:29:44  <lugo> there are quite some typos in the german translation, well there were...
10:32:36  <planetmaker> Leuna... for Portland... yes. no. I thought of industry in the vicinity of... ports. But yes, might work
10:32:47  <planetmaker> Chemiepark, why not
10:33:04  <planetmaker> Just think of nice road names. Siemensstrasse instead of James Watt Street for instance
10:33:25  <planetmaker> Kohlmarkt instead of tanner road. Or similar
10:33:50  <lugo> Kohlmarkt is a little misleading isn't it :P
10:34:03  <lugo> but i like siemensstraße
10:34:31  <planetmaker> the names have no relation directly to the industry... And a 'tanner' is a "Gerber". So... whatever :-)
10:34:50  <planetmaker> those are road names I just pulled out of my hat (the english ones, I chose them :-P )
10:36:31  <peter1138> gah, bullshit microsoft
10:36:43  <lugo> "Flötzstraße" then :)
10:36:53  <peter1138> releasing an update with the same details as a previously installed update...
10:37:13  <planetmaker> never heard that name, lugo ;-)
10:37:37  <lugo> seems quite common though
10:37:41  <planetmaker> really?
10:38:10  <planetmaker> well :-)
10:38:19  <lugo> well there's one in bochum so i thoguth it's fitting :)
10:38:25  <planetmaker> :D
10:38:53  <planetmaker> Flötz already implies excavating industry
10:39:14  <planetmaker> namely... digging for coal
10:39:43  <lugo> should be more general?
10:45:59  <Eddi|zuHause> didn't frosch123 have a list of german names?
10:48:11  <frosch123> http://paste.openttdcoop.org/show/2375/ <- that's the original list
10:48:23  <frosch123> haven't seen the english end-product though :)
10:53:55  <lugo> inspirational: i picked Zeche for mining, auf dem Acker for farm, Kruppstraße for heavy industry
10:54:28  <lugo> planetmaker: in your reply on the forums, why {num} instead of {signed_word}?
10:54:35  <frosch123> i think pm suggested "drei Eichen" instead of "auf dem Acker"
10:59:21  <lugo> http://pastebin.com/UmC4QWft
10:59:45  <lugo> those are the results so far
11:00:14  <frosch123> i wondered which areas use "Pferdemarkt", and which "Roßmarkt" :)
11:01:26  <frosch123> "...park" sounds weird
11:01:32  <frosch123> have you seen such streets?
11:02:26  <frosch123> hmm, apparently it is common in other areas :)
11:02:27  <lugo> well more an area than a single street
11:03:21  <lugo> fits to the happy place of TTD-land i think :)
11:03:31  <frosch123> "Altes Rathaus" already confused me in the english version
11:04:12  <frosch123> it implies there is a new one, and the old one is no longer being used
11:04:35  <frosch123> "Sandbank" could be shortened to "Sand"
11:04:54  <Eddi|zuHause> not really
11:05:34  <lugo> mmh i think townname Sandbank sounds better than only Sand, but both are bit strange to hear
11:06:25  <frosch123> well, i haven't seen a station on water :p
11:09:32  <planetmaker> yes, "Sand" instead of "Sandbank". definitely

11:10:33  <planetmaker> I never hear anywhere anything like "Sandbank". But places like "{PLACENAME} Sand" are very common at the coast
11:10:44  <lugo> should be changed in english too then..
11:10:51  <lugo> ok
11:10:51  <planetmaker> English is not German
11:11:12  <planetmaker> It's about what fits the language. And I asked andy there :-)
11:11:16  <Eddi|zuHause> i've never heard "Sand" as a location
11:11:27  <planetmaker> Eddi|zuHause, you're not living anywhere near the coast
11:11:36  <Eddi|zuHause> i guess not :)
11:12:03  <wakou2> Sandbanks in Dorset?
11:12:04  <Xaroth|Work> in spain/catalonia it's "(place) de mar"  .. like lloret de mar, malgrat de mar, etc.
11:12:59  <Eddi|zuHause> Xaroth|Work: it's meant for places _in_ the sea (fishing grounds, etc.)
11:13:27  <lugo> ok i'm going with "Sand" then.. any more objections?
11:13:40  <Eddi|zuHause> i object!! :p
11:13:56  <Xaroth|Work> Eddi|zuHause: which idiot builds stuff IN the seas?!? :P
11:13:58  <planetmaker> and thanks for digging up the original list, frosch123 :-)
11:14:09  <planetmaker> Xaroth, it's natural for dredging sites ;-)
11:14:48  <Xaroth|Work> we use boats for that
11:15:08  <lugo> planetmaker: sorry to bug you, but you didn't answer the num/signed word thing
11:15:33  <planetmaker> use what was there. {NUM} might be openttd lang file, not newgrf semantics
11:16:00  <lugo> ok

11:21:44  <planetmaker> It's not an Island. It's not a Hallig. It's a Sand :D
11:23:41  <Eddi|zuHause> ok, but then it would be "{TOWNNAME}sand", not "{TOWNNAME} Sand"
11:24:13  <Eddi|zuHause> which may or may not work with some town names
11:24:22  <__ln__> Braunschweigsand
11:24:54  <Eddi|zuHause> because Braunschweig is known for being near the sea :p
11:25:11  <planetmaker> yeah, we totally have an Okercabana here. With beach. And beer :D
11:25:28  <V453000> depends how much beer you consume

11:26:04  <MNIM> Pffft. beer is everywhere.
11:26:18  <frosch123> __ln__: Frankfurt an der Odersandsack
11:26:48  <planetmaker> I believe as station name you don't need to concatenate it. Assuming it's placed on or near a "Sand" near the town from the station name
11:26:55  <V453000> and vice versa MNIM, with beer you are everywhere
11:26:57  <V453000> slash can be

12:04:02  <dihedral> i would still like to see 'cash penalties' introduced :-) if someone misbehaves, make him 'pay' - money goes into local charities
12:04:30  <frosch123> it's called "bribing" in ottd
12:04:33  <Eddi|zuHause> make an admin script!
12:05:41  <dihedral> frosch123, i mean enforced by the admin, as a console command e.g.
12:06:21  <frosch123> oh, you mean "change company", "bribe town 30 times"?
12:06:33  <dihedral> bribing has an effect

12:07:03  <peter1138> can game scripts do things like dole out cash? heh
12:07:10  <dihedral> hehe
12:07:18  <dihedral> but it should work both ways

12:44:35  <Wolf01> as you are talking about modifier keys, I was thinking again about the interface for playing on touch screen: would be hard to have an official biggui.grf and change some ui buttons to act as dropdown? I mean, you need to share orders (ctrl+goto on a vehicle) as I don't have ctrl (ok, I can use gestures to enable it but that's not the point) I wanted to change the goto button like the top
12:44:35  <Wolf01> menu, where you keep pressed and select an action, the first one is the default one
12:46:50  <Wolf01> and this for every action which use the ctrl key
12:48:05  <Wolf01> except for (remove)autorail and signals, where we already have an usable ui with many buttons which can be combined
12:49:56  <planetmaker> Wolf01, integrating enlarged GUI sprites is not unreasonable and feasible in some ways... Just not yet done
12:50:13  <planetmaker> michi has a somewhat nearly finished patch for that iirc
12:50:31  <planetmaker> kinda introducing an UI zoom variable
12:52:06  <Wolf01> the problem is not only the big gui, but all the ctrl(olled) actions
12:53:11  <planetmaker> it's two different problems, I think

12:53:31  <planetmaker> the biggui is ... solvable. the idea exists. some code. but not yet done
12:53:33  <frosch123> the ultimate solution for ctrl are completely customizable hotkeys
12:53:42  <planetmaker> the different keys... ^
12:53:45  <frosch123> which could then also involve alt and win keys
12:54:04  <frosch123> and automatic hotkey dispaly in tooltips
12:54:07  <frosch123> or even on buttons
12:54:47  <frosch123> you know: like sc2 can display hotkeys on the action button, ottd could display them on the toolbar icons
12:55:02  <Wolf01> eh, but if you don't have keys™?
12:55:20  <frosch123> well, disable them
12:55:23  <planetmaker> dihedral, do you archive suggestions? Especially the non impossible ones?
12:55:36  <frosch123> could be the default for ape pads
12:56:10  <frosch123> hmm, actually, even apes use tools
12:56:27  <frosch123> so, cat pads maybe
12:56:41  <Wolf01> also without the ability to hover on a button is quite difficult to get a tooltip
12:58:41  <V453000> just draw the letter over the icon in the corner
12:58:46  <dihedral> planetmaker, :-)
12:59:03  <V453000> faster, and searching for tooltips is slow/tedious/not as effective
13:00:09  <Wolf01> it could be difficult to read
13:00:24  <frosch123> make every button take 1/4 of the screen
13:00:33  <V453000> not a problem at all if done properly
13:01:22  <dihedral> planetmaker, were you refering to ttf or my charging penalty idea
13:02:04  <frosch123> http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/3933/gridye.jpg <- Wolf01: that's how it looks in sc2
13:02:08  <Wolf01> it works well with plain, single colored buttons with a great contrast from background, and the image of the button needs to leave an area where you can draw the letter/shortcut
13:02:14  <frosch123> but it gets harder with modifier keys :p
13:04:55  <planetmaker> dihedral, I were referring to your spelling in the tt-f posting, yes ;-)

14:45:07  <Pitbull> Hello!
14:45:19  <V453000> mhm :)
14:45:20  <planetmaker> hello
14:45:21  <V453000> hi
14:45:40  <Pitbull> I don't suppose there's any chance I could jsut pop in here like this and get some help with using rcon? :D
14:45:46  <Pitbull> I searched teh forums already but the solutions didn't help
14:45:52  <Pitbull> err *the
14:46:10  <planetmaker> the chances might rise dramatically when you ask the questions instead of meta-questions
14:46:14  <Eddi|zuHause> i don't suppose you'd get an answer to a metaquestion
14:46:16  <Pitbull> Roger that :)
14:46:22  <V453000> type "rcon ban everybody"
14:46:26  <V453000> solves all problems
14:46:36  <Eddi|zuHause> V453000: you forgot the quotes :p
14:46:48  <V453000> shows I dont use rcon often :P
14:46:54  <Pitbull> I'm tryign to remotely load a saved game on my server. I can pause/unpause using rcon password "pause" and rcon password "unpause"
14:46:56  <V453000> joy of irc
14:47:08  <planetmaker> ^ :-)
14:47:09  <Pitbull> but rcon password "ls", rcon password "load newGame.sav" etc doesn;t work
14:47:14  <Pitbull> lol
14:47:22  <Pitbull> yes complaints will decrease dramatically with the ban everyone command :D
14:47:30  <Pitbull> the problem.....goes away
14:47:40  <V453000> literally!
14:47:58  <V453000> anyway, check that you have all newGRFs from the savegame on the server
14:48:14  <V453000> and that the save wasnt created with uncompatible/newer revision of openttd than the server haz
14:48:22  <V453000> step 3, ban everybody
14:48:33  <Pitbull> I believe I do, I created the savegame locally on teh server box earlier to load. Do I need to have the save on the client side to load it?
14:48:35  <Pitbull> lol
14:48:41  <Eddi|zuHause> that's when computers become sentient and get to the conclusion "wipe out all humanity" is the optimal solution
14:48:54  <V453000> XD
14:49:24  <V453000> it shouldnt be related to your client at all Pitbull
14:49:26  <Eddi|zuHause> i've seen that scenario many times in movies. it must be true! :p
14:49:26  <Pitbull> "well we've achieved sentience, what do we do on our quest to better humanity? Well system V453000 says to check something call newGRFs, check server versions and then.....BAN EVERYONE."
14:49:35  <Pitbull> hmmm roger that
14:49:51  <Pitbull> is there a reason rcon password "ls" won't return anythign in the client console?
14:49:59  <Pitbull> I wanted to confirm I had the filenames right, I'm 95% I do
14:50:12  <V453000> I suppose that should do something but idk I dont use that command
14:50:17  <planetmaker> what does rcon pw "pwd" tell?
14:50:24  <V453000> ^
14:50:48  <Pitbull> C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\OpenTTD\save\
14:50:59  <Pitbull> That is where the save file is
14:51:03  <Pitbull> so that looks correct
14:51:14  <Eddi|zuHause> am i allowed to reply a forum post with "no." twice on the same day?
14:51:27  <planetmaker> depends on who sees it, Eddi|zuHause ;-9
14:51:28  <V453000> Eddi|zuHause: you are allowed to do anything on the forums
14:51:31  <Pitbull> lol
14:51:45  <Pitbull> This is a dedicated server running in windows, if that's relevant
14:52:06  <Pitbull> ohhh duh
14:52:08  <Pitbull> dir
14:52:09  <frosch123> well, quite possible noone ever tested that :p
14:52:11  <Pitbull> lists my saves
14:52:18  <V453000> :D
14:52:20  <planetmaker> :-) ls is linux. dir is windows :D
14:52:29  <planetmaker> people using dedicated servers probably all use linux :D
14:52:35  <Eddi|zuHause> well the first one was "can we have more than 512 houses", and now there's "can we have underground stations?"
14:52:35  <Pitbull> lol
14:52:51  <V453000> Eddi|zuHause: in that case apply "fuck no"
14:53:01  <Pitbull> is there a windows "more" command? my save list scrolsl out of the console window lol
14:53:06  <Pitbull> guess I cna go back to goggling at this point
14:53:12  <planetmaker> Eddi|zuHause, the correct answers are in both cases "yes", though
14:53:12  <V453000> alt F4
14:53:15  <Pitbull> and confirm the filenames before I get back to begging :D
14:53:33  <Eddi|zuHause> and the worst thing of all: he gives "stuttgart main station" as an example :p
14:53:49  <frosch123> Pitbull: you can scroll the console window
14:53:57  <planetmaker> Pitbull, first try to load one which you see?
14:54:03  <frosch123> mousewheel or shift up/down pgup/pgdn
14:54:20  <V453000> beer can be used for scrolling too
14:54:25  <V453000> in random directions usually
14:55:16  <Eddi|zuHause> s/sc//
14:55:26  <planetmaker> hm... scrolling. beer. I should scroll some dust into the bin. So that I can scroll beers with friends tomorrow
14:55:48  <Pitbull> ok! after doign the dir, I had teh file name correct, aaaaaand it loaded fine now!
14:55:56  <Pitbull> Thanks for the help!
14:56:01  <planetmaker> yw
14:56:18  <Pitbull> Appreciate it guys, sorry to do drive by tech support begging lol.

16:30:35  <frosch123> vehicles?
16:30:40  <V453000> y
16:31:02  <frosch123> "colour_mapping"
16:31:12  <frosch123> it's a callback
16:31:49  <V453000> oh right so in the graphics block
16:32:44  <V453000> eventually as random_switch{} 1:blue; etc, right?
16:34:28  <V453000> sounds suspiciously easy :)
16:35:17  <frosch123> random_switch in the colour_mapping is fine as long as you do not use rerandomisation with triggers
16:36:15  <V453000> no I wont do that, I only need another switch to be dependent on it (due to wagons to recolour dependently) ... I guess that should not be a problem

16:58:41  <frosch123> take a look at rail_map.h
16:58:48  <frosch123> or signal_map.h if there is such a thing

17:00:48  <frosch123> well, there are multiple signals on a tile
17:00:51  <frosch123> up to four
17:01:26  <V453000> hm I guess I cant do it that way eh :D
17:01:45  <frosch123> ah, right, vehicles are more complicated :p
17:01:59  <frosch123> http://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Builtin_functions <- take a look at reserve_sprite there
17:02:24  <frosch123> later on you can put param[10] (as used in that example) into the callback
17:02:44  <maddy_> frosch123: there is also another function: uint GetSignalStates(TileIndex tile)
17:02:56  <V453000> o_O
17:05:53  <maddy_> what are the possible signalbits?
17:06:18  <frosch123> maybe take a look at GetTileTrackStatus_Rail (or whatever it is called) for how they are used
17:13:57  <V453000> WTF it is compiling :D lets see to what effect
17:20:05  <maddy_> frosch123: can't figure it out, my brain is frozen
17:21:16  <frosch123> did you look at GetTileTrackStatus_Track?
17:21:34  <maddy_> yeah
17:21:44  <frosch123> it uses stuff like GetPresentSignals, GetSignalStates, IsOnewaySignal, SignalOnTrack
17:22:12  <maddy_> yes

18:15:23  <krinn> return (state == SIGNAL_STATE_RED) ? (SignalOntTrack(track) & ~GetSignalStates(t) != 0) : (SignalOnTrack(track) & GetSignalStates(t)) != 0)
18:15:34  <krinn> but i don't see what's wrong with using a if
18:15:59  <Alberth> in particular as the machine translates the ?: to an if anyway :)
18:16:14  <maddy_> well ?: is the same as if, I was thinking there might be a solution with another bit operator
18:16:54  <maddy_> but I might not need the whole func in it's current form, I just realized
18:17:01  <planetmaker> krinn, the only advantage is that it is a bit more concise... and looks cool like you know stuff :-P
18:17:03  <Alberth> != 0  versus  == 0 perhaps?
18:17:18  <krinn> :) planetmaker
18:18:24  <maddy_> I will structure my code a bit different, so don't waste thought on that problem :)
18:19:38  <krinn> without knowing it at all, i would say your function should return (GetSignalState(t) != 0) and that's all
18:20:02  <Eddi|zuHause> why is it, when i invest in a second treating room for generic deseases, there only come patients for tooth doctor and brain doctor the whole day?
18:20:44  <maddy_> Eddi|zuHause: some game?
18:20:56  <Alberth> to keep you busy refurbishing the rooms?
18:21:11  <Alberth> maddy_:  nah, real life of course :)
18:21:15  <TWerkhoven> hospital tycoon? or theme hospital
18:21:37  <maddy_> well, if it's real life, then it'd be interesting, is what I'm thinking
18:22:01  <planetmaker> TWerkhoven, sounds like CorsixTH ;-)
18:22:18  <Alberth> no tooth doctor in CTH
18:22:29  <krinn> nor in theme hospital
18:22:46  <planetmaker> I hate doctors and especially dentists
18:23:01  <Alberth> krinn: CTH == open source TH
18:23:05  <planetmaker> except when I *really* need them
18:23:49  <krinn> planetmaker, that's why God invent dogs & ropes
18:23:51  <maddy_> planetmaker: well, they inflict pain on you, and make YOU pay for it, so it's no wonder it's psychologically unpleasant

18:33:17  <krinn> hi andythenorth
18:34:08  <Eddi|zuHause> the furthest i ever got was day 5
18:34:25  <frosch123> no idea what that means
18:34:41  <frosch123> but i remember the cars were expensive
18:34:44  <frosch123> or the drivers or so
18:35:11  <andythenorth> so new TTD will look like lomo :(
18:35:19  <andythenorth> I tweeted at them asking them to think different :P
18:35:21  <andythenorth> no reply :P
18:36:07  <Eddi|zuHause> i never got around to cars... the whole running the basic clinic stuff is so expensive (unless you used the crack that everything is free)
18:37:16  <frosch123> andythenorth: you are not their target group
18:37:26  <maddy_> new TTD?
18:37:34  <frosch123> or did anyone from forums get a beta? :p
18:37:53  <LordAro> they probably checked and made sure we didn't :p
18:37:54  <andythenorth> frosch123: I have an ipad and an iphone, and they are targeting nostalgia...so?
18:38:04  <Supercheese> I have a feeling anyone who mentioned OTTD was denied beta
18:38:06  <frosch123> are they?
18:38:11  <andythenorth> I didn't mention openttd :)
18:38:16  * Supercheese did.
18:38:44  <frosch123> i thought they are targeting people who never played the earlier games

18:39:28  <andythenorth> "It's not going to be everyone's kind of game, but the kind of players who enjoyed Transport Tycoon many years ago and also new players who want to play an in-depth strategy game will hopefully see the appeal in such a complex and large game running on a tablet or mobile phone which is always with them."
18:40:35  <Supercheese> Hmm, I'm not very fond of the new FIRS station names
18:41:09  <Supercheese> Color me odd if you must, but I really like "[Town Name] [Industry Name]" nearby station names
18:41:47  <Supercheese> à la "Toronto Grain Mill" or "Berlin Lime Kiln"
18:41:48  <andythenorth> Supercheese: take it up with devs
18:41:55  <Supercheese> andythenorth: am.
18:42:02  <andythenorth> no no I just draw

18:42:25  <Supercheese> frosch123: No it does not

18:43:32  <andythenorth> Vote?
18:43:36  <andythenorth> when do we ever vote?
18:43:42  <andythenorth> what would a vote prove? :o
18:43:50  * Supercheese was kidding
18:44:04  <Supercheese> some of the "interesting" names are very odd
18:44:04  <Alberth> when do you have station name even displayed? :p
18:44:13  <andythenorth> in the station
18:44:35  <Alberth> interesting point in time :p
18:44:46  <Eddi|zuHause> make it a parameter!!
18:44:47  <Supercheese> I'm confused how "portland" = "refinery"
18:44:56  * planetmaker finds the new station names nicer than the plain {TOWN} {INDUSTRY} types
18:45:20  <planetmaker> Supercheese, you probably will have an EEG of myself. It will surely be inconclusive ;-)
18:45:37  <andythenorth> Supercheese: just patch it :P
18:45:49  <Supercheese> Patch indeed, was just typing that
18:46:20  <frosch123> Supercheese: make an ottd patch
18:46:22  <andythenorth> or switch US lang to 'boring names'
18:46:24  <andythenorth> or something
18:46:31  <andythenorth> or make an NZ lang or somethnig
18:46:32  <frosch123> to name every station according to the industry name
18:46:45  <frosch123> then you can also make it name them "refinery 1" and "refinery 2"
18:46:55  <frosch123> it's not only boring, but it is also silly to code that into a newgrf
18:47:12  <andythenorth> ottd advanced setting
18:47:29  <Supercheese> I'm not the only one who doesn't like the new names: http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=1092634#p1092634
18:47:36  <planetmaker> you now got your patch option offered on a silver platter :D
18:48:00  <planetmaker> to solve it once and for all :-)
18:48:06  <Supercheese> but anyway, patch for parameter, yes?
18:48:12  <andythenorth> a FIRS parameter?
18:48:13  <andythenorth> no
18:48:20  <planetmaker> an openttd adv. setting
18:48:25  <Supercheese> blah
18:48:31  <Supercheese> perhaps
18:48:44  <planetmaker> frosch is the newgrf authority :-P
18:48:47  <Supercheese> seems to me it's more of a newgrf thing
18:48:53  <andythenorth> it's really bloody silly to spend time writing newgrf props to copy the industry name into the station name
18:48:56  <andythenorth> :)
18:49:00  <andythenorth> it's totally redundant
18:49:11  <andythenorth> and it's (mostly) not how TTD names stations, which matters to me
18:49:17  <Supercheese> but also much easier than OTTD patching
18:49:24  <andythenorth> easier != better
18:49:32  <Supercheese> of course :P
18:49:35  <planetmaker> openttd patching should not be terribly difficult in that respect either, Supercheese
18:50:03  <planetmaker> add an adv. setting. locate the station naming function and make use of it there
18:50:35  <Supercheese> Worth a try

19:01:41  <andythenorth> it isn't done yet
19:02:31  <Supercheese> removed the small boats from the terminal, I see
19:02:37  <planetmaker> andythenorth, that terminal is bulk for granular stuff but not ores. So... it's not exactly general-purpose bulkd
19:02:47  <andythenorth> planetmaker: I know, that's the problem :(
19:02:59  <andythenorth> if I want to change cargos, it's not generic
19:03:07  <andythenorth> oh
19:03:12  <andythenorth> I could use the thing from alu plant
19:03:14  <Alberth> shouldn't the cranes be higher? eg at a rails at least as high as that shed?
19:03:31  <andythenorth> probably
19:03:44  <andythenorth> I could use the triangular bulk store from this http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/firs/push/LATEST/docs/html/industries.html#aluminium_plant
19:04:19  <planetmaker> did you know that in grain containers the weight is carried by the walls, if they're filled higher than their diameter?

19:36:30  <andythenorth> lol
19:36:39  <Xaroth|Work> planetmaker: I re-worked openttd-admin.py  .. should behave a lot smoother now .. think you'll like what it can do.
19:38:05  * TWerkhoven likes it
19:38:26  <Xaroth|Work> o/ TWerkhoven
19:38:30  <TWerkhoven> ello
19:38:44  <Xaroth|Work> always wanted to make something with urwid
19:39:13  <Xaroth|Work> but this should also show 90% of the stuff one would need for making other interfaces, like IRC bots :)
19:39:28  <TWerkhoven> hehe
19:39:36  <TWerkhoven> i just got rcvchat working with your events
19:42:28  <planetmaker> :-)
19:42:54  <TWerkhoven> btw, previous incarnation of openttdadmin.py would choke on clients quitting, did you know that?
19:43:15  <Xaroth|Work> it would choke on a lot of things :P
19:43:19  <Xaroth|Work> hence the re-work
19:46:08  <TWerkhoven> this one handles it fine yes
19:48:24  <Xaroth|Work> chat should also be displayed more sanely
19:48:56  <Xaroth|Work> and the clients and company list now show in a table form
19:49:02  <TWerkhoven> actually chatting crashes it
19:49:16  <Xaroth|Work> it does? hm
19:49:35  <TWerkhoven> typeerror, _chat() takes exactly 7 args (6 given)
19:50:07  <Xaroth|Work> er, I think you're using an old trackingclient; that one's updated as well
19:50:18  <Xaroth|Work> events.chat now sends the client object if it's available
19:50:27  <TWerkhoven> ah
19:50:28  <Xaroth|Work> (the 7th arg)
19:50:31  <TWerkhoven> fair enough
19:50:51  <TWerkhoven> i take it it sends the same with clientjoin/quit?
19:51:59  <Xaroth|Work> with join/quit it's slightly different
19:52:08  <Xaroth|Work> it sends the raw clientID if it doesn't know the client
19:52:12  <Xaroth|Work> else it sends the client object
19:52:20  <Xaroth|Work> so an isinstance(client, (long, int)) can filter those out
19:54:42  * TWerkhoven updates trackingclient too
19:54:53  <TWerkhoven> before i base too much on the old version
19:55:20  <Xaroth|Work> btw, technically openttd-admin.py will work without having libottdadmin2 actually installed, as it'll inject the proper path if it's available (if ../libottdadmin2/ exists)
19:55:51  <Xaroth|Work> but it'll give a warning for display (it'll appear when you close it again)
19:57:09  <TWerkhoven> i should probably do the same, fail properly if it cannot find libottdadmin2
19:57:17  <TWerkhoven> instead of just generic supybot error

20:14:59  <andythenorth> some of these new bulk terminal layouts look ugly on minimap :(
20:15:10  <andythenorth> minimap prettiness is very important
20:15:29  <Alberth> apparently :)
20:15:34  <TWerkhoven> openttd-admin.py doesnt seem to display players creating new companies
20:15:41  <TWerkhoven> joining spectators or existing companies works fine
20:16:04  <TWerkhoven> is that expected behaviour?
20:17:32  <Xaroth|Work> ah, yeh, not yet implemented that part

21:41:12  <Eddi|zuHause> the "Talent 2", colloquially "Hamsterbacke", painted in silver
21:41:20  <planetmaker> you mean... I should recognize a face and see the ... right :-)

21:42:14  <planetmaker> the latter, yes
21:42:18  <Malinux-> :)
21:42:47  <Eddi|zuHause> from another angle: http://file1.npage.de/006227/92/bilder/shoot13-0711-le-db1442_1.jpg
21:42:50  <Malinux-> I have to go to bed, but maybe I am back another day for other wishes :p :)
21:43:10  <Malinux-> * other almost impossible wishes
21:43:11  <Eddi|zuHause> i think "silver cheek" loses something in translation

22:39:57  <Arkabzol> Hrm
22:40:55  <Arkabzol> Interesting how your rating with the local authority goes quite quickly from max to "can't let you do that"
22:41:30  <Arkabzol> Not sure I agree with it...
22:41:35  <Supercheese> I just disable local authority entirely
22:41:47  <Supercheese> since I compile custom binaries
22:43:15  <Supercheese> maximum sandbox
22:46:57  <SamanthaD> I love how the local authority is just fine with you plastering the entire countryside with layers upon layers of tracks but god help you if you cut down a tree ;)

22:58:06  <Bad_Brett> good, thank you
22:58:51  <Bad_Brett> Arka, are you from Sweden?
22:59:11  <Bad_Brett> Supercheese: Any new eye candy?
22:59:31  <Supercheese> I've got 4x zoom sprites for the emergency vehicles coming
22:59:43  <Supercheese> have to sort out the 8bpp masks
23:01:04  <Bad_Brett> What software are you using?
23:01:06  <Supercheese> trying to write an OTTD patch atm
23:01:08  <Supercheese> Sketchup
23:01:11  <Supercheese> for renders
23:01:28  <Supercheese> GIMP for general raster editing
23:01:59  <Bad_Brett> can't you just do a blue material in sketchup with 100% self-illumination and remove antialiasing?
23:02:28  <Bad_Brett> that's how i create my masks
23:02:37  <Supercheese> I want action colors though
23:02:40  <Supercheese> blinky lights
23:03:40  <Bad_Brett> are you doing it in 8bpp or can that actually be done with 32bpp sprites?
23:03:54  <Supercheese> 32bpp sprite, 8bpp mask with action colors in the mask
23:03:57  <Supercheese> figure should work
23:04:19  <Ristovski> Dudes
23:04:20  <Bad_Brett> are you using company colors? otherwise it seems easier to do a simple animation

23:05:11  <Supercheese> some vehicles will also have CC
23:06:11  <Bad_Brett> CC that blinks?
23:06:24  <Supercheese> no, CC paint schemes as well as flashing lights
23:06:46  <Supercheese> see current tow truck sprites
23:06:54  <Bad_Brett> link?
23:07:24  <Supercheese> ehm
23:07:32  <Supercheese> load the grf and build one? :P
23:07:55  <Supercheese> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=56780#p972473
23:08:01  <Bad_Brett> :)
23:08:17  <Bad_Brett> anyway, if the flashing lights won't be in CC, it seems easier to do a simple animation and only use masks for paint schemes... in my opinion that is :)
23:09:08  <Supercheese> I don't think the models I'm rendering would be easy to give animated lights to
23:09:52  * Supercheese is not really a 3d modeler
23:10:08  <Bad_Brett> maybe not... i've never used sketchup so i can't help you there really
23:10:21  <Supercheese> I like sketchup because it is very easy to use
23:10:29  <Supercheese> no silly features and weird UI like blender
23:10:39  <Bad_Brett> i hate blender as well
23:10:45  <Bad_Brett> tried to learn it, but gave up
23:10:50  <Supercheese> blender is un-usable
23:11:01  <Bad_Brett> have you tried AutoCAD?
23:11:09  <Bad_Brett> that program is a mess
23:11:25  <Supercheese> It's not really for rendering 3d models, right?
23:11:31  <Bad_Brett> luckily no
23:11:43  <Supercheese> more like drafting engineering drawings
23:11:47  <Bad_Brett> but it takes like five clicks to draw a simple line
23:12:39  <Bad_Brett> i guess it gets better if you learn the keyboard shortcuts but it's still frustrating
23:12:47  <Supercheese> should only take two, if your start and endpoint are snapped-to some feature
23:12:56  <Supercheese> well, plus 1 to activate the line tool
23:13:28  <Bad_Brett> yeah but then you have to right-click, select"quit line edit mode" and press Enter or something like that
23:13:36  <Supercheese> O_o
23:13:40  <Bad_Brett> yep...
23:13:46  <Bad_Brett> and the weird thing is
23:13:47  <Supercheese> I don't recall that being necessary
23:13:59  <Bad_Brett> that i've been using 3ds max since i was 15 years old
23:14:58  <Supercheese> ugh
23:15:03  <Supercheese> I'd rather just patch FIRS
23:15:06  <Supercheese> -_-
23:15:13  <Bad_Brett> heh
23:15:21  <Supercheese> ottd source is difficult
23:15:31  <Bad_Brett> yeah
23:15:35  <Bad_Brett> i gave up
23:15:39  <Bad_Brett> on that
23:15:44  <Supercheese> it's very easy to remove things you don't like
23:15:45  <Bad_Brett> i have too much other things going on
23:15:49  <Supercheese> very hard to add new features
23:16:13  <Bad_Brett> like getting the extra turning angles to work
23:16:22  <Supercheese> although that axiom applies almost anywhere :P
23:17:12  <Bad_Brett> well, luckily, a designer knows perfection is achieved, not when there's nothing left to add, but when there's nothing left to take away ;)
23:17:35  * Supercheese always hears that quote in Nimoy's voice, thanks to Civ4
23:18:10  <Bad_Brett> :D
23:19:31  <Bad_Brett> anyway, if you become a source code guru, please create a solution for those curved tracks, because i'm gonna need them... looks like my locomotives derail at every curve :P
23:19:57  <Supercheese> curved tracks are easy to hack in
23:20:03  <Supercheese> not easy to code well :P
23:20:33  <Supercheese> crude newobject overlapping tiles can hack in curved tracks
23:20:42  <Supercheese> don't even need to patch the game
23:21:19  <Bad_Brett> really? how does it work?
23:21:37  <Supercheese> it works glitchily :P
23:22:19  <Bad_Brett> define glitchily
23:22:41  <Supercheese> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=58884&p=1065014#p1065014
23:22:49  <Bad_Brett> the tt community is infamous for screaming "GLITCH!!!!" every time a sprite is two pixels off
23:22:51  <Supercheese> That grf does overlapping tiles I believe
23:23:19  <Supercheese> Oh wait, maybe that's not the one
23:24:12  <Supercheese> although I believe it is
23:24:34  <Bad_Brett> my entire grf is based on overlapping tiles, and i even experimented with curved tracks, but foundations made it impossible if i remember correctly
23:25:43  <Supercheese> well, the crude way is to have every possible combination of curves drawn as an overlapping newobject, and you place them beside the hard-angle tracks
23:25:58  <Supercheese> of course, that's rife with problems, but would work in many cases
23:26:47  <Supercheese> well, "work"

23:30:14  <Bad_Brett> sooner or later someone will hopefully get frustrated that my trains derail and make nice patch
23:30:27  <Supercheese> we need your train grf first, eh? ;)
23:31:10  <Bad_Brett> it's coming... when i get some new hardware
23:31:31  <Bad_Brett> estimated rendering time for a single locomotive is 50 hours
23:31:41  <Supercheese> yikes, how many frames for the animation?
23:31:53  <Supercheese> and how many views? more than 8 I take it?
23:32:13  <Bad_Brett> 256 views
23:32:44  <Supercheese> Yikes
23:32:47  <Bad_Brett> + maybe 16 frames for animations
23:33:27  <Bad_Brett> of course, wagons will need even more sprites
23:33:48  <Bad_Brett> depending on if they are loaded
23:34:09  <Bad_Brett> basically it will be 128 right turns and 128 left turns

23:36:19  <Bad_Brett> each sprite is then split up in 16 smaller sprites
23:36:19  <Supercheese> combinatorial expansion
23:36:19  <Bad_Brett> so the total sprite count for a single locomotive will be around 10 000 sprites :)
23:36:19  <Bad_Brett> luckily, the file size is not as big as you would expect
23:36:19  <Supercheese> your grf will end up with a larger filesize than zBase at this rate
23:36:19  <Supercheese> oh?
23:36:43  <Bad_Brett> my test locomotive is 12 mb, and those sprites haven't been cropped at all, so i expect a much smaller filesize

23:54:48  <Arkabzol> How can something be less than a bit?
23:55:09  <Supercheese> mb vs. MB, eh?
23:55:28  <Supercheese> I say we should use hectobytes
23:55:44  <Arkabzol> Capitalisation is important as fuck
23:55:51  <Arkabzol> m, M, b and B all have distinct meanings
23:56:13  <Supercheese> hB
23:56:24  <Supercheese> or daB
23:56:29  <Supercheese> fun units
23:58:06  <Arkabzol> The "hecto-" prefix reminds me of apples
23:58:37  <Arkabzol> Because that's the only use of it I see. Apples in hectograms.
