05:08:13  <Flygon> It's just that I have to redo an entire layout of the station

05:09:26  <Flygon> I'll have to see about getting it self-sustaining until I can build a very very long railway line

10:29:07  <planetmaker> that would add another two years for sure :P

10:58:17  <Eddi|zuHause> depends on what you call "work" :p

11:10:14  <Celestar> what do I?
11:10:41  <Xaroth|Work> What do you what?
11:12:13  <Celestar> what do I call 'working on DBset'
11:12:29  <Celestar> maybe I should rephrase. who is planning to work on DBset ?

15:50:16  <Starlight> How do i load a game on the Dedicated server I play on?
15:52:15  <Starlight> Ok, How do I find out what number the savegame is then?
15:52:30  <Starlight> I just figured out the load command..
15:53:02  <Taede> there is also ls (list directory), cd (change dir) and pwd (current working dir)
15:53:18  <Starlight> Ty
15:53:33  <Taede> just make sure you use rcon <rconpassword> load <savegame>
15:54:04  <Taede> using load without the rcon bit would just load the game on your local client
15:54:24  <Taede> also: http://wiki.openttd.org/Console_Commands

15:58:46  <Starlight> It doesn't work.. It just say "Load a game name or index"!

16:01:04  <Starlight> rcon Pass load 2
16:01:08  <Starlight> Isn't working..
16:02:04  <Starlight> Helluu?
16:05:03  <Starlight> I got it working using the console.. In the server window.. Rcon didn't work..
16:13:49  <peter1139> rcon pass "load 2" maybe
16:13:58  <peter1139> dunno if that ever got resolved
16:14:06  <peter1139> or if i'm imagining it

19:07:18  <Alberth> assuming you took it from openttdcoop, they have special openttd.cfg settings for the path finder
19:07:49  <rubenwardy_> probably
19:08:14  <Alberth> http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/PublicServerSettings   perhaps this?
19:08:34  <rubenwardy_> I am reading from here: http://wiki.openttd.org/Cyclotron
19:09:14  <planetmaker> good even ink
19:09:30  <Alberth> ok, those things look way too complicated to bother about, to me
19:09:35  <Alberth> oddink planetmaker
19:10:03  <planetmaker> rubenwardy_, also the cyclotron on the openttd wiki might assume set yapf.rail_firstred_twoway_eol 1
19:10:19  <planetmaker> generally I don't consider cyclotrons a useful thing, though :)
19:10:21  <Alberth> iirc V claims the cyclotron to be ineffective mostly
19:10:44  <planetmaker> especially if it involves sharp curves like shown in the screenshot
19:10:52  <planetmaker> V is totally right with that claim :)
19:11:03  <rubenwardy_> works!
19:11:14  <planetmaker> (and I don't know how people get the idea that it's a coop thing to build - on the contrary)
19:11:15  <rubenwardy_> Thaks, Alberth
19:11:21  <Alberth> for some value of 'work'  no doubt :)
19:11:54  <Alberth> planetmaker: it looks like a complete chaos of tracks :)
19:11:58  <planetmaker> it's more efficient to implement a slight forward-priority with acceleration space
19:12:46  <rubenwardy_> oops
19:12:50  <rubenwardy_> Thanks planetmaker
19:13:03  <planetmaker> (my definition of efficiency is flow or network throughput with trains stopping as little as possible)

19:15:04  <Matulla> it also carries the food away
19:15:24  <Matulla> if the lory is not in station
19:16:11  <planetmaker> goto FARM and refit to CORN
19:16:21  <planetmaker> you need a trainset which allows autorefit in stations

19:18:01  <andythenorth> I didn't follow
19:18:21  <planetmaker> oh, that guy wants to convince everyone that the payment formula is crap
19:18:55  <andythenorth> what's the problem with it?
19:19:24  <planetmaker> it's a non-monotonous function
19:19:36  <planetmaker> he shows graphs in that or another thread
19:19:42  <andythenorth> assume I failed A-level further maths :P
19:20:26  <planetmaker> f(x) is monotonous, if for all x: f(x) <= f(x + deltx)
19:20:35  <planetmaker> and deltax > 0
19:21:19  <valhallasw> andythenorth: monotonous = better service => more payment
19:21:36  <andythenorth> so is the faster train better or not? o_O
19:21:55  <planetmaker> dunno. Probably not

20:26:53  <DDR> He had the network fucking *future-proofed*, too.
20:27:27  <DDR> Cloverleaf interchanges and everything.

20:28:11  <planetmaker> cloverleaves jam
20:28:34  <DDR> 
 really?
20:28:50  <planetmaker> yes. They don't follow the rule "split before join". They do it the opposite
20:29:13  <planetmaker> thus trains can be blocked by trains which block the path they need to go
20:29:36  <DDR> Hunh.
20:29:38  <planetmaker> thus a waits for be while be waits for a. All in a nice circle

20:31:34  <planetmaker> well. signaling. and ... :P
20:31:47  <DDR> I thiiiink you just upped my game.
20:32:01  <DDR> I actually understand signalling, mostly.
20:32:17  <planetmaker> :)
20:32:19  <DDR> Some of the pre-combo-exit stuff is still a bit fuzzy.
20:32:36  <planetmaker> it gets complicated when one starts to play the path finder :)
20:33:06  <planetmaker> like making sure that trains with only one station in the order list do exactly what they are supposed to do and return still a big profit
20:33:07  <DDR> I can, just, prevent my trains from reaching a station and turning back down the line because the station is full.
20:33:43  <DDR> How do you make a profit with just one station? According to all I know, that should be strictly impossible.
20:33:55  <DDR> Indeed.
20:34:00  <Eddi|zuHause> that was not the content of the sentence :)
20:34:11  <planetmaker> it works fabulously. If you have the right network for it
20:34:25  *** Japa__ [~Japa@117.201.100.29] has joined #openttd

Having serious problems with the bridges slowing everything down. looking on google and seeing some kind of option for raising bridge speed limits but i don't know how to activate it. i'm open to suggestions of all kinds for making bridges not be such an impediment. thanks in advance fo
21:00:26  <Gallomimia> r your tips

21:10:08  <Alberth> make bridges as short as possible
21:10:18  <Alberth> and double, triple, or quadruple them
21:11:22  <planetmaker> Gallomimia, bridges will always slow down the fastest maglev trains
21:11:24  <Alberth> for your next game, you may want to look into some bridge NewGRF
21:11:46  <planetmaker> unless you find a NewGRF which raises the speed limit to beyond their speed. Not sure it exists
21:11:57  <Gallomimia> i did see one in my search
21:12:08  <Gallomimia> does it involve restarting the game?
21:12:10  <planetmaker> but if you don't cross water: build tunnels instead
21:12:19  <planetmaker> it involves starting a new game, yes
21:12:22  <Gallomimia> yeah it's water
21:12:36  <Alberth> use ships instead :p
21:12:38  * andythenorth hates docks on canals :P
21:12:42  <andythenorth> I just built one
21:12:44  <planetmaker> alternatively: build canals in the water and leave one tile between them
21:12:44  <andythenorth> lame
21:12:50  <Gallomimia> oh well it's only a night of play. i just built my first ship
21:12:50  <planetmaker> then clear the water between the canals
21:13:25  <Gallomimia> my first time trying maglevs. decided to start with them instead of any other type of trains. very expensive :/
21:14:20  <Gallomimia> only my second game. sure is fun. i'm finding some expansion to add more industries? seems neat. and i see there's a way to play massive coop games? is that big in the community/
21:15:02  <planetmaker> depends on whom you ask. I'd say 'yes'. But many play single player or competitive
21:15:28  <planetmaker> as for industry NewGRFs: you might try FIRS or OpenGFX+Industries
21:16:10  <planetmaker> with FIRS use tropical landscape and economy 'Heart of Darkness' (via NewGRF parameter). With OpenGFX+Industries just choose via parameters which industries you want to use (all default, but independent of climate, if you like)
21:17:09  <Gallomimia> sounds like you're talking greek so far. :) let me just ask you this. is there a big desparity between all the different flavors of this game i'm seeing? i see ttdpatch which i think is a patch on the copywritten game. and then there's openttd and also a fork of it called simutrans?
21:17:19  <Taede> mind that if you play with firs you will also need a trainset (and other vehicle sets) which will transport the non-standard cargoes
21:17:42  <planetmaker> good point, Taede ^
21:18:01  <planetmaker> anyway... have a nice weekend all of you. I'm off for now :)
21:18:07  <Alberth> bye planetmaker
21:18:07  <Taede> simutrans is a different game altogether, no ties to openttd except for the premise to transport cargo
21:19:21  <DDR> I didn't like simutrans half as much as OpenTTD, it seemed to have some UI issues and, in general, confused the heck out of me.
21:19:43  <Gallomimia> thanks for that info. i'll stick with my openttd i think :)
21:19:52  <DDR> It might be better now, though.
21:20:03  <Alberth> simutrans starts with routes for the trains, which is indeed more confusing at first
21:20:08  <Gallomimia> was delighted when i started typing something in CLI starting with open and found it through tab completion
21:20:21  <Alberth> :)
21:20:23  <Gallomimia> what now?! there's a simcity like game installed on my system by default??? oooooooooo
21:20:34  <Alberth> lincity?
21:21:45  <Alberth> actually, the original simcity is now open source, and known as micropolis. It does run at linux too
21:22:22  <Gallomimia> bah that crap is boring compared to openttd!
21:23:18  <Alberth> in this channel, it is :D
21:23:45  <DDR> Lincity's always been for Linux!
21:24:11  <Alberth> yeah, I haven't tried it for ages though
21:24:46  <Alberth> at some point they had too heavy graphics, rates of 1 frame / second isnot much fun :)
21:24:54  <Gallomimia> lincity != micropolis?
21:24:59  <DDR> Yeah.
21:25:12  <Gallomimia> god bless open source.
21:25:17  <DDR> Lincity goes way back, and has more of a 'civilization' bent to it.
21:25:28  <DDR> That is, progress through the ages.
21:25:30  <Alberth> escape from the planet :)
21:25:44  <DDR> You got that in Sim Earth.
21:26:22  <Alberth> lincity had it too, at least as one of the options to end the game
21:26:24  <Gallomimia> open source principles for privacy and security concerns, openness and freedom and learning........ NO! I want remakes of old games ><

21:33:47  <andythenorth> I made the grf :P
21:34:04  <frosch123> hmm, i coded that last year? didn't i?
21:34:12  <Alberth> likely :)
21:34:18  <frosch123> there was always something other important :p

21:35:20  <andythenorth> that will keep me quiet for a day or so...
21:35:31  <Gallomimia> alright here's a a pertinent question... what determine's a (example steel mill) firm's capacity or demand for raw materials? there's two close by and i wonder if one will eat up all the ore
21:35:49  *** luaduck_zzz [~luaduck@0001c465.user.oftc.net] has joined #openttd
21:35:51  <andythenorth> does your station cover both?
21:35:58  <Gallomimia> no two different stations
21:36:03  *** luaduck_zzz is now known as luaduck
21:36:24  <andythenorth> if each station only covers one mill, then there is no capacity or demand in the default game
21:36:31  <andythenorth> unless you enabled cargo distribution
21:36:32  <Rubidium_> IIRC a steel mill can handle about 24.000 a month
21:36:39  <andythenorth> oh yeah, there's a hard limit :)
21:36:42  <Rubidium_> (a normal one)
21:36:44  <andythenorth> for the insane :P
21:36:46  <Gallomimia> that's a ton.
21:36:54  <andythenorth> some people reach it
21:37:10  <Gallomimia> i'll certainly need to look for more mines...
21:39:08  <Gallomimia> last question. is there any intermodal transport? how does transfer work? can i build a big depot for stuff to get dropped at and transfered to another train of the same type?
21:40:49  <frosch123> https://wiki.openttd.org/Feeder_service
21:40:59  <cib> Is there a simpler way to mod stuff like vehicle stats, cargo transportation prices and similar core settings, without going through the whole ".hex" aka grf stuff? I've honestly had more success modding games with their entire content defined as macros in huge .cpp files, than to figure out this grf stuff, and that's saying something.
21:41:40  <frosch123> there is the "basecost mod" ready for all price stuff
21:41:44  <frosch123> and there is "nml"

21:44:02  <DDR> To do intermodal, either build the two modes of transport in the same station, by placing the tiles next to eachother, or maybe hold ctrl for the station dialog.
21:44:07  <Gallomimia> if i can afford more trains in this game i might get myself a depot
21:44:20  <Gallomimia> station dialog?
21:44:31  <cib> NML seems promising, but I haven't been able to find some useful reference documentation for it. A tutorial is nice, but doesn't help you with doing things not outlined in that tutorial.
21:45:02  <DDR> There was a setting, at least a while back, for detached stations. If you held ctrl, I think, you could choose which station to attach the new station tiles to.
21:45:05  <andythenorth> NML docs are there
21:45:15  <andythenorth> you just have to figure out the navigation ;)
21:45:17  <DDR> For example, you could have bus depots on one side of the road, and a train station on the other.
21:45:26  <Gallomimia> cib the nice thing about an open/volunteer organization making a product like this is that you can help build that documentation by outlining all the things you want to know then writing it as you find out by asking questions :)
21:47:22  <Alberth> cib:  bottom of the right blue column
21:48:17  <cib> Well, main reason I'm asking is I found this: https://wiki.openttd.org/Game_script#Activating_Gamescripts and this: http://nogo.openttd.org/api/1.3.3/index.html
21:48:53  <cib> That seems a much more convenient approach to scripting the game, and I was wondering if something like that existed for modifying said vehicle stats, prices, etc.
21:49:28  <andythenorth> nope

21:50:32  <cib> Is there a fundamental reason for that, or is it just a matter of writing the appropriate wrappers?
21:50:43  *** luaduck_zzz is now known as luaduck
21:51:09  <Xaroth|Work> technically, it's more than doable to put it all in nuts
21:51:25  <Xaroth|Work> but historically, newgrfs started out in ttdpatch (iirc)
21:51:30  <Xaroth|Work> and openttd adopted it
21:51:47  <andythenorth> electrify!
21:52:20  <Alberth> nogo is for writing computer players, Gamescripts for "world control" (scenarios with triggers), and newgrf for concrete game things such as vehicles and industries
21:53:02  <Alberth> they exist and operate at different levels
21:54:37  <cib> "world control" seems limited when you can't even control how much an industry is paying for transporting their goods =)
21:54:57  <cib> But then, I have only a user's POV on the game.
21:55:08  <Xaroth|Work> world control is done by the server
21:55:13  <Xaroth|Work> newgrf changes the 'game rules'
21:55:25  <Xaroth|Work> all clients need the same newgrf set as the server
21:55:29  <andythenorth> these electric trains are not that fast
21:55:33  <Xaroth|Work> whereas only the server requires the ai or nogo scripts
21:55:35  <andythenorth> 6,400hp, 155mph
21:55:40  <Alberth> andythenorth: add mooaar
21:55:41  <andythenorth> but they take a long time to accelerate
21:55:45  <andythenorth> maybe 2?
21:55:54  <Alberth> at least, maybe 5 :)
21:55:54  <Gallomimia> what the heck. i thought i turned breakdowns off?

22:39:00  <Gallomimia> is there anything that will tell me how "full" my vehicles get on a typical trip? what's the best way to guage whether my transport network is running at capacity and i should add vehicles?
22:44:22  <Eddi|zuHause> Gallomimia: if you have cargo distribution enabled (in 1.4.0) there is a graph that shows how overloaded your transport links are
22:45:11  <Eddi|zuHause> otherwise it's not easy to calculate, so the game does not do it for you
22:45:55  <Eddi|zuHause> in general, look at the stockpile and the station rating of your stations
22:46:00  <Gallomimia> cargo.... distribution
22:46:11  <Eddi|zuHause> if high stockpile, add more vehicles
22:46:16  <Eddi|zuHause> if low rating, add more vehicles
22:46:19  <Flygon> It's basically a method of driving you nuts as commuters jam your buses and trams over capacity
22:46:20  <Gallomimia> station rating is a mystery to me. but i've been watching the stockpile as a general guideline
22:46:29  <Flygon> And you literally can't run more buses or trams :P
22:46:48  <Eddi|zuHause> station rating is mostly how often a vehicle appears at the station
22:46:52  <andythenorth> hmm
22:46:53  <Gallomimia> Flygon: Eddi|zuHause is it an addon or an option?
22:47:04  <andythenorth> sometimes it would be nice to be able to bin a cargo from a station
22:47:05  <Flygon> In 1.4.0? An option
22:47:09  <Eddi|zuHause> Gallomimia: it's an option in 1.4.0-beta, but not in 1.3.3
22:47:24  <Gallomimia> ah. it looks like i'm running 1.3
22:47:36  <Gallomimia> 1.3.1 :/ odd that

23:10:07  <Flygon> It looks awesome in the end
23:10:10  <Flygon> But it's still tedious :P
23:11:15  <Eddi|zuHause> the biggest pain of that is that you can't terraform a railway bank without affecting half the map
23:11:38  <Eddi|zuHause> plus the lack of diagonal inclinations
23:11:50  <Flygon> Exactly
23:12:00  <Flygon> Diagonal inclinations lacking are the most annoying part
23:12:54  <Eddi|zuHause> but i don't see a sensible way to implement them. diagonals would be twice as steep
23:13:14  <Eddi|zuHause> you get glitches at tile edges and stuff
23:13:34  <Eddi|zuHause> so you'd need something that stretches two or three tiles
23:13:44  <Flygon> Could always build a seperate game that's basically a 3D sandpit that avoids the issues 2D has
