Times are UTC Toggle Colours
00:00:11  <chillcore> some things have changed for the worse
00:00:38  <chillcore> like when you have no internet 65% of your stuff stops working
00:01:01  <romazoon> oh well, but how was it without internet ?
00:01:05  <chillcore> never saw that one glx
00:01:08  <glx> even worse when internet shuts down in the middle of a game
00:01:09  <romazoon> :P
00:01:24  <chillcore> romazoon .... first two weeks great
00:01:28  <chillcore> no drama
00:01:33  <chillcore> peace and quiet
00:01:47  <chillcore> sleeping at decent hours
00:01:56  <chillcore> I have no cable tv so
00:02:22  <chillcore> then it becomes a bit annoying because you want ot play game that do not work
00:02:52  <glx> worse when it's not a multiplayer game
00:02:57  <chillcore> but I still have my consoles
00:03:02  <chillcore> indeed glx
00:03:15  <glx> that's just silly
00:03:23  <chillcore> I cleaned out my ipad and steam folder
00:03:33  *** gelignite [~gelignite@i528C3B28.versanet.de] has quit [Quit: http://bit.ly/1kso8Ta]
00:03:38  <chillcore> no work ... delete delete delete
00:03:47  <glx> steam works offline
00:04:04  <chillcore> to the point I almost removed it all and am now replacing my games with console versions
00:04:08  <chillcore> ye it does
00:04:36  *** gnu_jj [~quassel@ipb21b7994.dynamic.kabel-deutschland.de] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
00:04:44  <chillcore> I tried to play drift ... starts ... plays ... no saving shiiiiiiiiiiiiit
00:05:04  <glx> ha yes cloud saving
00:05:11  <chillcore> but some games do work yes
00:05:33  <chillcore> there is not one game that uses cloud no more ... you can disable it in configs
00:05:38  <chillcore> even dota
00:06:05  <chillcore> ^^^ ofcourse does not work ... everything starts and after 10 secs ingame it stops
00:06:48  <chillcore> I think this is a sad evolution
00:06:52  <glx> well you still have openttd then ;)
00:06:58  <chillcore> minecraft worked
00:07:02  <chillcore> and openttd
00:07:05  <romazoon> and it is a sad evolution chill
00:07:23  <romazoon> especially that the reasons behind it at not really legitimate
00:07:37  <glx> it's against piracy
00:07:48  <romazoon> well that s what you think
00:07:50  <chillcore> true ... jsut stop buying them games ;)
00:07:57  *** gnu_jj [~quassel@ipb21b7994.dynamic.kabel-deutschland.de] has joined #openttd
00:07:59  <romazoon> or that s what they want you to believe
00:08:05  <glx> but only legitimate users are affected
00:08:17  <chillcore> it takes them a week longer that is all
00:08:21  <chillcore> like you say
00:08:27  <romazoon> but the truth is they gather data on people, and make some more money on players ass
00:09:05  <chillcore> ye even minecraft launchers have facebook and twitter and reddit icons in them
00:09:09  <romazoon> they use the data to see if their game is still used and if an add on is a wise idea in term of business
00:09:18  <chillcore> fuu google analytics even
00:09:39  *** yorick [~yorick@ip51cd0513.speed.planet.nl] has joined #openttd
00:09:51  <romazoon> personal data = goldmine
00:10:11  <chillcore> ye
00:10:24  <chillcore> just fight the power
00:10:41  <romazoon> you heard the price for minecraft ? just insane
00:10:57  <romazoon> 3 billions....
00:10:59  <chillcore> you mean what Notch received ...
00:11:01  <chillcore> 2.5
00:11:05  <romazoon> even in ottd i don t reach that
00:11:15  <romazoon> :P
00:11:36  <chillcore> I dunno romazoon ... OpenTTD is not commercial
00:11:46  <chillcore> but there are a ton of players
00:12:28  <romazoon> i mean in game, i don t manage to make 2.5 billion (just to say it s insane)
00:12:48  <chillcore> you do not play long enough haha
00:12:57  <chillcore> you continue after 2050?
00:13:01  <romazoon> and i m lying...of course i reached that
00:13:26  <chillcore> I never pay attention to my money
00:13:40  <chillcore> for me it is about the network and such
00:13:51  <chillcore> signals and decoration
00:13:58  <romazoon> but anyway, it s not a valid comparison i know....i was just pretending it s insane, and they have more interest than just the game
00:14:22  <chillcore> prob is that once you know the mechanics is is easy
00:14:53  <chillcore> untill now MS handles it pretty well
00:15:04  <chillcore> they left eula alone
00:15:11  <chillcore> thank god
00:15:31  <chillcore> one thing is sad ... notch did not give us the code as promissed
00:15:39  <chillcore> can't bame him
00:15:50  <chillcore> still sad-ish
00:16:13  <romazoon> i know, nevver cared of money in game too, i love to make huge and fully interconnected$ networks were trains can never get lost and manage to handle the demand created by cargodist
00:16:36  <chillcore> huhu
00:17:14  <chillcore> there are so many ways to play. that  is one of the great things
00:17:47  <romazoon> it is indeed... and so addictive it seems !
00:18:08  <chillcore> that is because we coded coke in it :P
00:18:26  <chillcore> ssssssst
00:18:56  <chillcore> it is even used in unis ... economics clases. at least so I heard
00:19:07  <romazoon> the war free game is not a drug free game :P interesting
00:19:26  <chillcore> free games or 'free' games?
00:19:34  <chillcore> apple changed their labels
00:19:40  <chillcore> no more free but get
00:20:23  <romazoon> free as in excluded (drug free zone)
00:20:23  <chillcore> now we need a law that stops the no refunds abuse
00:20:58  <chillcore> and kickstarter and early access abuse
00:21:15  <romazoon> what s that ?
00:21:17  <chillcore> lot's of genuine projects but also lot's taht are not
00:21:28  <chillcore> early acces you kow right?
00:21:36  <romazoon> oh more clear now with the last sentence
00:21:39  <chillcore> you pay for an alpha and play forever
00:21:52  <chillcore> eg minecraft started at  5 euros and KSP too
00:21:56  <chillcore> you invest
00:22:11  <chillcore> and hope to get a complete game some day
00:22:33  <romazoon> invest ? or you pay to play ? (invest mean getting some $ back at some point)
00:22:39  <chillcore> same with kickstarter, kinda
00:22:50  <chillcore> nono yu pay a low price and the game is yours
00:23:00  <romazoon> but i think  i see your point, people buys games early and they don t get finished entirely
00:23:13  <romazoon> so it s an abuse
00:23:19  <chillcore> yep and they do not get their money back
00:23:23  <chillcore> indeed
00:23:44  <chillcore> with kixkstarter the same
00:23:46  <chillcore> kinda
00:24:08  <chillcore> sometimes projects do fail because whatever
00:24:13  <chillcore> it happens
00:24:28  <romazoon> i see this happening with train fever, more or less (they don t even pretended to be an beta though....while it was an alpha really, and they made a release nonetheless and try to fix it still today (6 month after going out, there is a fix every two weeks)
00:24:28  <chillcore> but some are ... grrrrrrrr
00:24:39  <Wolf01> 'night
00:24:43  <chillcore> night
00:24:46  *** Wolf01 [~wolf01@0001288e.user.oftc.net] has quit [Quit: Once again the world is quick to bury me.]
00:25:31  <chillcore> ye romazoon I do not know about this project ...
00:25:38  <chillcore> be glad they are fixing it
00:25:41  <romazoon> oh it s a game, it s out since 6 month
00:25:48  <chillcore> ye ...
00:25:49  <romazoon> the successor of ttd suposely
00:26:04  <chillcore> OpenTTD has no competition
00:26:06  <romazoon> well not successor, but inspired by
00:26:11  <chillcore> true
00:26:46  <romazoon> it s all in 3d, with some real scale used (wich is insanely not fun to play)
00:26:57  <chillcore> it's like rollercaoster tycoon .... many tried many more failed
00:27:20  <chillcore> maybe Alberth his project some day ... FreeRCT
00:28:19  <chillcore> it's what happened to rollercaoster 3 ... they made it 3D and it was ruined
00:28:24  <LordAro> !
00:28:25  <chillcore> for me anyway
00:28:32  <romazoon> but they nailed success really, the engine could make for an epic "transport" game...the gameplay is just not much "addictive" right now
00:28:48  <chillcore> hello LorAro
00:28:53  <LordAro> hey chillcore
00:30:49  <romazoon> rollercoaster is a game i never tried, it s funny how i missed it given the time i spent on TTD as a kid, maybe one day i ll give it a shot (so i should try the second if i got you right )
00:31:40  <chillcore> you should pick it up
00:32:05  <chillcore> first and second with all the expansions
00:32:36  <chillcore> the third is not that bad it is just that it is 3D and the atmosphere changed completely
00:32:55  <chillcore> I missed an expansion and bought it again
00:33:21  <romazoon> ok, thanks
00:33:28  <chillcore> there is this ultimate pack ... 8 games ... I payed 14.95 euros
00:33:31  <chillcore> brand new
00:33:38  <chillcore> crazy
00:34:23  <chillcore> there are many great games ... older ones
00:34:39  <chillcore> ever played Myst? and Oddworld?

00:42:39  <romazoon> i did played Myst, i didn t understood anything (and remember of lags)...
00:43:57  <chillcore> it is not the easiest of puzzles true
00:45:18  <chillcore> most of the times solutions can be found for he who searches ... elsewhere
00:46:08  <romazoon> hahaha good old days with game that made no sense, and people where not asking for a refund !
00:46:55  <chillcore> depends which good old days
00:47:16  <chillcore> once opened you could hardly get a refund but yu were allowd to sell on
00:47:17  <romazoon> but well i was a good client, i spent hours trying to figure out "kings quest", a click and point adventure with commands to enter
00:47:37  <chillcore> never played that one
00:47:50  <romazoon> and at the time i was not even speaking english ! huahuahua (i had an english version, and still not complaining)
00:49:31  <chillcore> Many of the games here were spoken in our own laguage
00:49:49  <chillcore> not all ofcourse
00:50:21  <chillcore> and they had movie clips with real actors too
00:50:26  <romazoon> well i didn t had that chance ! except TTD :)
00:51:54  <romazoon> of course i don t speak of console games, they were translated in french usually
00:52:24  <romazoon> but PC games, i remember until mid 90's it wasn t common that i could get my hands on french version
00:52:40  <chillcore> I am still looking for TTO for PSX ... nowhere to find and I am not fond of online shoping
00:53:11  <romazoon> simcity, railroads tycoons, civilization I, all those i played in english...before speaking it "fluently"
00:53:47  <romazoon> TTO for PSX, is that the 3d version, isn't it ?
00:53:56  <chillcore> your english is not bad ... must have bbeen all them games :P
00:54:11  <chillcore> yes I think so
00:54:26  <chillcore> could have been TTD that was 3D ... it has been a long time
00:55:12  <chillcore> hmm I started lagging

00:55:24  <chillcore> this things sais so
00:55:26  <romazoon> but on psx, i only heard of one version...and it was the 3d version i believe. but i might be wrong. and i seems to talk to someone who knows much more than me on TtD history
00:56:31  <chillcore> anyhoo 2AM time for a nappie
00:56:56  <chillcore> was nice talking to you romazoon, see you around.
00:57:10  <romazoon> hehe
00:57:11  <romazoon> sure
00:57:18  <romazoon> it was nice, bye and good night
00:57:20  <chillcore> goodnight
00:57:44  <chillcore> there was aversion yes but I do not remember iwhich of the two it was
00:57:53  <chillcore> anyhoo next time ;)

08:45:38  <V453000> heyooo
08:46:03  <andythenorth> a bug :)
08:46:08  <andythenorth> or a badly named industry?
08:46:11  <Alberth> yeah, I make lots of stupid little typos these days :(  Supercheese
08:46:24  <Alberth> not by the looks of it
08:46:48  <Supercheese> Maybe the ore is both ferriferous and carboniferous
08:47:20  <andythenorth> I can barely type anymore
08:47:33  <andythenorth> must be some kind of global decline :P
08:47:44  <Alberth> lol
08:49:33  <supermop_> so i've been making these fake dieter trams as placeholders for real melbourne trams
08:50:17  <supermop_> but now im tempted to  add extra trams that shouldn't be in the melbourne tram set just so i get to draw more variations on these fake trams
08:51:47  <V453000> as soon as realism limits you in any way, it is bad :)
08:52:05  <Alberth> +1  :D
08:52:09  <supermop_> i like how that guy blurred out his company name as if sensitive information
08:52:22  <Alberth> yeah  :p
08:52:36  <Alberth> maybe his player name
08:52:51  <Eddi|zuHause> uhm, limiting yourself is the entire point of a game
08:53:34  <supermop_> the extra trams exist in real life, they are just identical to another class except for manufacturer of the brakes
08:54:15  <supermop_> but adding them lets be turn another coffee grinder into a tram!
08:55:31  <Alberth> Eddi|zuHause: sure, but realism is not by definition a good limit
08:56:17  <Eddi|zuHause> but there's still a difference between "not always" and "never"
08:58:29  <andythenorth> eh
08:58:35  * andythenorth offers platitudes
08:58:38  <V453000> OMFG philosophical questions
08:58:42  <andythenorth> choosing to limit by realism is good
08:58:58  <andythenorth> arbitrarily only limiting by realism is not good
08:59:05  <V453000> if supermop is having one tram in his set due to realism, it might be nicer to have 10 trams for variety :P
08:59:33  <V453000> making things roughly believable to create the atmosphere is nice, copying it 1:1 is not
09:00:18  <Eddi|zuHause> tbh, i have not understood supermop_'s approach enough to judge that
09:07:51  <V453000> dyin

09:11:09  <supermop_> well ill model and render for now
09:11:44  <roidal> from when is 'days_in_transit' of a CargoPacket counted on?
09:12:09  <roidal> at the moment of creation, or is it the time being loaded into a vehicle?
09:12:22  <Supercheese> pretty sure it's on loaded
09:13:11  <roidal> so there is no penalty in payment for long waiting cargo at stations?
09:13:42  <Supercheese> I do believe that is the case
09:13:47  <roidal> ok, thx
09:14:03  <Supercheese> other than the station rating being too low and the cargo disappearing

10:07:13  <Xaroth|Work> it calls set.union on the generated list

12:21:53  <andythenorth> should they be —options of some kind?

12:23:30  <Alberth> s/;/'/
12:24:25  <Alberth> you can set them with a default value in the makefile
12:24:28  <andythenorth> yes
12:24:36  <andythenorth> I think they are already, maybe
12:24:37  <andythenorth> maybe I should just make them look less stupid
12:24:38  <Alberth> so you only need to type them when they are changed
12:24:47  <andythenorth> shorter names
12:24:51  <andythenorth> no double negative :P

12:47:13  <chillcore> ah yes ... feel free to ...
12:47:26  <chillcore> in my head I still do BASIC :P
12:47:39  <chillcore> kinda
12:48:08  <Alberth> no recursive data structures in basic?
12:48:35  <chillcore> hmm I alwayds avoided the topics about pointers and such
12:48:40  <chillcore> they confuse me
12:49:25  <chillcore> like how you do guis ... I would love to be able to do that but ...
12:49:31  <chillcore> getting there though
12:49:34  <Alberth> it's just like a piece of paper with an address to go to, on it
12:49:40  <Eddi|zuHause> tree algorthisms are often laid out so they describe the process that happens on each node. and then dive either into the parent or children and come back with magic values
12:50:20  <chillcore> I know ... alberth ... I really should sit down one day and take a good practise at it
12:50:31  <Eddi|zuHause> pointers for trees/lists are not that bad. it gets crazy when you do pointer arithmetics
12:51:10  <Eddi|zuHause> but BASIC probably couldn't do that
12:51:12  <Alberth> yeah, like recursion, you don't think in terms of overall structure, you just handle one single node, without caring where things point to
12:51:30  <chillcore> I see Eddi ... if you are refering to querying the values by query box ... I put that into seperate functions for the hotkeys later
12:51:49  <chillcore> alhtough I could simulate a button click maybe
12:52:06  <chillcore> which I will have to for scriptts/AIs
12:52:13  <Eddi|zuHause> chillcore: i don't know what you're talking about
12:52:17  <chillcore> not there yet
12:52:33  <chillcore> keep it like that eddi :P
12:52:43  <chillcore> I mean np ofcourse
12:54:08  <chillcore> Alberth ye that is the thing ... not thinking enough in modern languages yet
12:54:53  <chillcore> I started reading another book but I am at chapter 8 only ... this time skipping nothing
12:55:07  <chillcore> then MHL happened
12:55:24  <chillcore> during my off time I mean
12:55:43  <chillcore> s off/no internet
12:55:59  <Alberth> language isn't that important, it's a mental step that you can safely ignore everything around the node
12:56:18  <Alberth> or around the function, in case of recursion
12:56:38  <chillcore> ok ...
12:56:57  <Alberth> you can make a recursive function?
12:57:15  <chillcore> for loop and such?
12:57:25  <chillcore> if I have to yes
12:57:25  <Alberth> no, a function calling itself
12:57:51  <chillcore> never tried that untill now .. but saying it like that ye I know about it
12:58:55  <Alberth> knowing and writing are very different things :)

12:59:45  <Alberth> if you are wondering about making one,  sum(N)    of factorial(N)    are simple ones
13:00:40  <chillcore> ah ok
13:00:41  <Alberth> or difficult ones, as you are immediately confronted with recursion
13:00:51  <Alberth> no way around it :)
13:01:37  <chillcore> I have this tendency to jump in on the deep end and see if I float
13:02:16  <chillcore> what you talk about is on the other end I guess
13:02:36  <Romazoon> is there a relatively up to date known bug list for Iron horse 1.5.0? ( box car have zero capacity when refitted to mail in a game i just launched )

13:03:57  <Romazoon> thanks for the headers, i lll report it asap
13:04:22  <Alberth> chillcore: yep, with small examples, it's easier to get the core idea, less noise from unrelated parts
13:06:11  <chillcore> I'll have a play around once I get these pacthes working properly
13:06:51  <chillcore> not putting time pressure on myself but ... 1.5 is nearing and there is much to check
13:07:00  <chillcore> for forgotten parts

13:09:04  <chillcore> then again is one more needed?
13:09:12  <Alberth> always :p
13:09:36  <chillcore> hihi
13:10:12  <Alberth> compilers come in many forms, not only things that are called 'compiler'
13:10:34  <chillcore> I see

13:11:39  <Alberth> and mostly theoretical, openttd is also a compiler, it translates realtime user input to displayed pictures :p

13:17:27  <chillcore> lol
13:17:46  <chillcore> stupid indeed
13:18:19  <chillcore> <i never even bothered trying to read it
13:18:53  <Eddi|zuHause> there were also dialects of it, the one which more relies on numbers, and the one which more relies on /\|
13:19:22  <chillcore> ye ... there was this progamming language too ... forgot name
13:19:59  <chillcore> basically you assigned other names to keywords
13:20:43  <Eddi|zuHause> exchanging keywords is the easiest part of compiler construction :p
13:20:52  <chillcore> hehe
13:21:01  <Eddi|zuHause> for my professor's professor, they once translated a language to swabian :p
13:21:49  <chillcore> that must have been fun to work with
13:22:55  <chillcore> I once toyed with the idea of making the pc understand spoken language to program with but quickly abandoned
13:23:08  <chillcore> it was still the very early stages of voice recognition
13:23:51  <chillcore> that and well you need to pronounce it everytime in exactly in the same fashion
13:24:09  <Eddi|zuHause> spoken language has two main problems: 1) it's extremely bloated, lots of redundancies, 2) it's often ambiguous
13:24:23  <chillcore> hmm going back and adding stuffs to sentences ... bad while chatting
13:24:34  <chillcore> yes
13:25:15  <Eddi|zuHause> loads of language designers fell into the trap of "if making the language more natural, programming gets easier"
13:25:29  <chillcore> also correcting things ... no idea how to do that sanely
13:25:32  <Eddi|zuHause> just look at COBOL
13:25:57  <chillcore> I read abook about it never used it so ...
13:26:07  <chillcore> my brother does COBOL

13:29:12  <chillcore> I want to make a public PC safe for multiple users somehow
13:29:20  <chillcore> in and idiot proof way
13:29:43  <chillcore> prob is that they keep changing stuffs and enabling things they should not
13:30:06  <chillcore> so that the next user has no access to the previous his data/cookies
13:30:36  <chillcore> prob is where it is at they are not aware and they do not reboot browser nor pc between session
13:30:44  <planetmaker> hello
13:30:54  <chillcore> o/ planetmaker
13:31:29  <chillcore> I huess I will need to educate them ... not hte users but the place where it is

13:35:00  <chillcore> on boot it resets to satndard setting and ask your name ... you enter whatever so they can monitor you somewhat
13:35:15  <chillcore> but between users they do not boot
13:35:43  <chillcore> granted they have no access to USB or CD but who needs that while online
13:36:04  <Alberth> why would need to boot? just logout
13:36:22  <chillcore> hmm ... forced logout
13:36:36  <chillcore> that is an idea ...
13:37:04  <chillcore> and forbid FB and the likes ...
13:37:48  <andythenorth> Alberth: so which is more readable? o_O Guido thinks the new one, approximately https://paste.openttdcoop.org/pswphv1ib
13:38:51  <chillcore> ye I'll see if I can make them do that ... sessions of 15 minutes or so and it logs out automatically
13:39:11  <chillcore> these PCs are meant for people wh have no internet at home and can  not afford it
13:39:24  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: depends on how fluent you are in functional programming

13:40:08  <chillcore> then take it from there

13:41:01  <andythenorth> it was all very appealing until I tried to understand the examples

14:31:52  <chillcore> both
14:32:00  <chillcore> smoothness puldown
14:32:01  <frosch123> there is a script to generate those files

14:33:06  <frosch123> generare_widget.sh and squirrel_export.sh
14:33:12  <chillcore> WID_GL_SMOOTHNESS_PULLDOWN became WID_TGEN_SMOOTHNESS_PRESETS_PULLDOWN
14:33:39  <chillcore> and I execute them frm console the same location as compiling yes?
14:33:56  <frosch123> there is no compatbiilty layer in the script widget api, it is supposed to only work as long as windows do not change
14:34:10  <frosch123> since there is no way to make it compatible anyway
14:34:33  <frosch123> i think you run the sripts from the folder they are in
14:34:36  <frosch123> src/script/api
14:34:41  <chillcore> besides changing the widget name it moved gui
14:35:16  <chillcore> I'll give it a go ... I have my backup on forum
14:38:30  <chillcore> generate_widget.sh? sounds like the right one
14:39:49  <chillcore> yep that was it ... thank you frosch ... I would never have found that
14:40:28  <chillcore> but but it seems you forgot to do it yourself in trunk ...

14:41:09  <chillcore> ^^^ inside my newly created patch
14:42:20  <chillcore> or maybe it is not needed in trunk ... i dunno
14:43:32  <chillcore> you == someone or the compiler
14:46:06  <chillcore> either way I am glad I did not have to type all that manually
14:48:44  <frosch123> likely it got forgotten in trunk :)
14:49:15  <frosch123> we cannot run it automatically on build, due to inferior operating systems

16:46:50  <chillcore> I should fix em all when encounterd,
16:46:52  <Alberth> I mostly get annoyed with any editor that doesn't act like vi/vim  :)
16:47:20  <Alberth> I guess I am too much attached to it :)
16:47:38  <chillcore> yeah usually I go for notepad++ but this gedit is  pretty much the same
16:48:03  <Alberth> in the KDE world, there is kate and kwrite
16:49:05  <chillcore> I have too many choice too mention ... kinda anoying that different types of files open different editors
16:49:16  <chillcore> had to change with "open with ..."
16:49:27  <Alberth> change your preferences :)
16:50:01  <chillcore> for .ini, .h and cpp ... not that they are bad but i prefer in one gui
16:50:03  <chillcore> I did
16:51:06  <Alberth> yep, I even have different configurations for files in different projects :)
16:51:17  * LordAro regularly tries to :wq in gedit
16:51:22  <LordAro> or notepad++
16:51:44  <Alberth> not ESC?  :)
16:52:20  <chillcore> ye that is anoying ... one of them in settings.ini two  of theses ' makes half the page be pink text
16:52:39  <chillcore> ' thes in the comments that is
16:52:50  <Alberth> :set color=none    :)
16:53:21  <chillcore> syntax highlighting is usefull ... fixed it in the meantime
16:54:08  <chillcore> it helps to see structure in the files
16:54:27  <samu> canal maintenance: 4x default - looks fine, very tight for a first transportation route in very hard settings
16:54:50  <samu> canal cost: 1/8 default
16:55:10  <Alberth> you don't want to start with canal building as first route
16:55:17  <chillcore> but if I see more of them lines should they all be fixed? there are more and I'll do them when encounterd close by...  Alberth
16:55:41  <Alberth> chillcore: hmm, tough one
16:56:08  <samu> i'm comparing the same route vs rail and vs road
16:56:32  <samu> construction costs were similar to rail, road was cheapest
16:57:26  <samu> const costs: 49650 vs 45288 vs 23856
16:58:22  <samu> new vehicles: 36562 vs 32339 vs 73084
16:58:39  <samu> 1 ship, 1 train, 11 trucks
17:00:00  <samu> running costs: 4320 vs 3249 vs 7062
17:00:31  <samu> maintenance costs: 2730 vs 2189 vs 419
17:01:15  <chillcore> Alberth: ye ... then again you did break all of our patches too long time ago ... every single on in existance
17:01:20  <chillcore> :P
17:01:29  <chillcore> we can tackle this later maybe
17:01:59  <Alberth> just collect them, and we'll see

17:02:29  <chillcore> indeedeleedom
17:02:30  <samu> income on the first year: 16934 vs 20463 vs 30431
17:03:34  <chillcore> I got 5-ish patches/fixxes left to do
17:03:52  <chillcore> but for everyone I solve 2 emerge so make that 20-ish fixes
17:04:23  <samu> profit graph is lowest for ship, but considering the first route was all canal only
17:04:32  <samu> I think i am satisfied
17:04:41  <chillcore> there are more but those are adons/improvement in functionality
17:04:55  <chillcore> eg sliders
17:05:07  <chillcore> useful but not needed perse
17:06:15  <samu> it can profit :) that's all that I cared to do
17:06:16  <Alberth> samu: costs should be more varied imho
17:06:41  <samu> tell me
17:06:53  <Alberth> a player should make a smart choice how to transport cargo, if you make it all the same, you eliminate that need
17:08:05  <Alberth> that's also why there are more than one train, for example, you should think which one to use at what place
17:08:26  <Alberth> otherwise, you can have just one train for everything
17:08:46  <samu> this train is size 6
17:08:52  <samu> forgot to mention
17:11:03  <samu> for this test I was only trying to see if it was even possible to start a all-canal route with only 100k loan
17:12:36  <samu> it is, but it's not really getting you loads of cash

17:13:44  <Eddi|zuHause> samu: you can try to make ships more profitable by increasing the cargo aging interval
17:14:02  <Eddi|zuHause> if you double the interval, a ship will make as much money as a train twice the speed
17:14:59  <Eddi|zuHause> if you feel fancy, you can do this only for "non-perishable" cargos (coal, steel, ...)
17:16:21  <samu> ships last 30 years
17:16:55  <samu> i'm okay that they profit half than a train
17:17:51  <samu> it's not exactly how much they profit that worries me, but the building / maintenance costs in relation to profit
17:19:55  <samu> year 1951 profit: 6468 vs 14495 vs 21677
17:20:04  <samu> ship lowest, trucks highest
17:21:05  <Alberth> ships should be high volume transport imho
17:21:58  <Alberth> insane high construction costs, and small profits, so you need all those years to get your investment back
17:22:39  <samu> well, yeah, as you said, not best to start with ships and canal
17:22:52  <samu> i could start with ships without needing to build any canal tile
17:23:03  <samu> but i was doing the extreme here
17:23:09  <samu> see if it was possible
17:24:52  <V453000> cause openttd is only about making money :)
17:25:56  <roidal_> maybe someone can explain me the operating profit graph?
17:27:00  <roidal_> even if i have a year with negativ income the graph stays above 0
17:29:32  <roidal_> negativ win*

17:40:23  <samu> gonna wait for year 1955
17:42:28  <samu> hmm 23 trucks is excessive for this route, must expand stations
17:44:14  <Taede> roidal, which graph are you looking at? if it is income, it can only be => 0, as that counts only the income vehicles get. expenses (running cost, maintenance cost etc) do not count for that graph (iirc)
17:44:29  <Taede> i think you want the 'operating profit' graph
17:45:00  <roidal> Taede: yes, i mean the 'operating profit'
17:45:05  <roidal> but it seems to be broken in 1.4.4.

17:53:48  <roidal> year 2032
17:53:50  <samu> trains and trucks have already achieved saturation point
17:54:11  <samu> ships have not
17:55:08  <andythenorth> is it acceptable to shorten ‘incremental’ to ‘inc’ as an arg?
17:55:13  <andythenorth> or does it conflate with other things?
17:55:32  <Taede> at a guess, i'd say construction costs (and new vehicle costs) are not used in those graphs at all
17:55:39  <Taede> probably intended behaviour
17:56:02  <Alberth> andythenorth: seems ok to me, perhaps is_inc  (if it is a boolean)
17:56:16  <roidal> Taede: what costs are used for this graph?
17:56:54  <roidal> only running costs?
17:56:59  <Taede> income, running costs, maintenance, interest (in other words, regular outgoings and incoming)
17:57:21  <roidal> strange
17:57:24  <roidal> this must be "new"?
17:57:26  <Taede> excluded would be one-offs, eg buying vehicles, terraforming, construction
17:57:59  <roidal> because i remember on a graph
17:58:02  <roidal> where this was included?
17:58:13  <roidal> ...long time ago :D
17:59:07  * andythenorth names it to the terrible ‘isinc’ because _ is hard to type fast

18:02:05  <chillcore> continue*
18:02:21  <Alberth> ugh, a so terribly broken concept
18:02:38  <chillcore> hmm never had probs with it ...
18:02:55  <Alberth> I have not yet found a use for that behavior, why would you ever not wrap search?
18:03:01  <chillcore> I am rarely at beginning of file ...
18:03:36  <chillcore> compiler will complain though ... just a bit annoying if i patch 2/10 you forgat a few
18:03:48  <chillcore> hmm spelling ...
18:03:55  <Alberth> note, that I am asking for a "not wrapping" use case :)
18:04:07  <chillcore> ok
18:04:32  <Alberth> I can't see a use for it
18:04:35  <chillcore> then no ... no use for that
18:05:11  <chillcore> my bad
18:05:15  <Alberth> which then leads to the problem why an editor has it in the first place :p
18:05:32  <Alberth> np, I didn't formulate it very clearly
18:05:59  <chillcore> story of my lafe Alberth story of my life

18:07:37  <chillcore> bon apetit

18:08:20  <roidal> maybe youre shure
18:09:39  <frosch123> Alberth: when replace "A" with "AB" you certainly don't want to wrap infinitely :p

18:10:32  <chillcore> hmm we have a winner ;)
18:11:11  <samu> oh alberth looks like... 2 ships on the same route pays off
18:11:11  <Alberth> frosch123: so you disable wrapping, have to go to the start of the file before you can replace?
18:11:36  <frosch123> well, usualy editors are smart enough to not iterate multiple times over the file when replacing all :p
18:11:42  <Alberth> why not try all lines exactly once instead, no matter where you are?
18:11:56  <samu> getting the 2nd ship is however, the boring part
18:12:07  <frosch123> if in doubt, use sed :)
18:12:09  <andythenorth> use better ships
18:12:19  <samu> there's only 1 cargo ship
18:13:00  <Alberth> I rarely doubt in such cases :p
18:13:16  <samu> 2 ships are profiting better than 3 trains
18:13:19  <andythenorth> anybody want to sanitise pixa?
18:13:24  <Eddi|zuHause> "continue replacing from beginning of file" usually stops at the point where you started, it doesn't loop
18:13:25  <andythenorth> and make it python 3 compatible?
18:13:30  * andythenorth guesses the answer
18:13:31  <samu> then again, the ship route isn't saturated yet
18:13:39  <samu> the train route is
18:13:47  <Alberth> samu: ships routes are never satured
18:13:48  <samu> it was faster to get 3 trains
18:13:48  <Eddi|zuHause> at least, i never have seen an editor that does...
18:14:09  <Alberth> andythenorth: I could have a go at it, but not today
18:14:27  <samu> i'm transporting coal
18:14:37  <andythenorth> Alberth: another day maybe :)
18:14:54  <andythenorth> it’s mostly stupid illegal imports I think
18:15:21  <Alberth> import *  seems to work less good in python 3
18:15:27  <andythenorth> or not at all :)
18:15:35  <andythenorth> also there’s no tests or reference case
18:15:39  <andythenorth> so testing pixa is a chore
18:15:44  <andythenorth> but I could write that
18:16:10  <Alberth> you're not even using pixa?
18:16:19  <andythenorth> I use it in a couple of places
18:16:26  <Eddi|zuHause> i use it, too
18:16:33  <andythenorth> it’s really convenient
18:16:43  <andythenorth> flipping 2CC colours
18:16:44  <Eddi|zuHause> but CETS is not ported to python3 either
18:16:46  <Alberth> you have at least 1 other user :)
18:16:46  <andythenorth> recolouring cargos
18:16:51  <andythenorth> bloody users :)
18:17:05  <andythenorth> generating spritesheets programmatically
18:17:15  <Eddi|zuHause> i also know virtually nothing about what changed between 2 and 3
18:17:50  <Eddi|zuHause> i wanted to incorporate pixeltool, but never got anywhere with it
18:18:09  <Eddi|zuHause> i think i stopped at finding a command line interpreter for javascript
18:18:14  <Alberth> oh, the zephyris thing?
18:18:16  <andythenorth> nodejs?
18:18:18  <andythenorth> maybe
18:18:56  <andythenorth> we should convert the game to voxels :P
18:19:09  <Eddi|zuHause> cubicles!
18:21:51  <andythenorth> eh, apart from pixa, pyflakes is now happy with Iron Horse
18:21:55  <andythenorth> small victories :P
18:22:19  <andythenorth> are conditional imports a stupid idea?
18:22:56  <Eddi|zuHause> i have the pixa import in a try/catch
18:23:15  <Eddi|zuHause> for when it is not installed, i provide stub functions
18:23:23  <andythenorth> Iron Horse being split into rosters, it would sometimes be useful to only compile one roster
18:24:34  <Alberth> another reason why imports should not have side effects :)
18:24:43  <samu> hmm
18:24:54  <samu> gonna try 2x maintenance costs
18:25:00  <andythenorth> imports now mostly don’t have side effects :)
18:25:08  <andythenorth> there are still a few
18:25:16  <andythenorth> but my code is now littered with calls to main()
18:25:26  <Eddi|zuHause> then importing "useless" modules shouldn't hurt
18:25:49  <Eddi|zuHause> put the control flow around the calling functions, not the imports
18:25:56  <Alberth> compiled byte code is cached anyway
18:27:45  <andythenorth> ok ta
18:41:41  <andythenorth> is flat better than nested?
18:42:25  <frosch123> green is certainly better than yellow

19:07:44  <chillcore> remove canal  2 * build at least
19:07:57  <samu> maintenance costs quickly go up per each aqueduct tile
19:08:00  <chillcore> cleanup you dirty ...
19:08:18  <Eddi|zuHause> remove should certainly be expensive
19:08:27  <chillcore> but yeah something like that after buildingless cleanup
19:08:54  <samu> maintenance per canal tile: x1, per aqueduct tile: x4, per lock (includes 2 canals): x8, per lock (without canals): x6
19:09:22  <samu> if the mainentance is to be x4, all those values will go up x4
19:09:58  <Eddi|zuHause> you might be able to set how many trackbits an aqueduct is counted as, but not sure
19:10:27  <chillcore> that is why you test and play samu, you  do not borrow money and test like a new player would play with it
19:10:55  <chillcore> if you intend to make your modifications available that is
19:11:33  <chillcore> I do that too whenever I tune
19:11:40  <samu> there is some advantages for aqueducts
19:11:48  <chillcore> ofcourse I had the luxury of having a ton of testers
19:11:51  <samu> can build stuff below them
19:11:57  <chillcore> so it took me less time
19:12:50  <chillcore> and later you make configs and do a hard setting and an easy one

19:28:03  <andythenorth> e.g, sort lexically by name, then within ‘a’, sort by intro date
19:28:08  <andythenorth> (made up case, but similar)
19:28:24  <andythenorth> bad example
19:28:58  <Alberth> make a tuple of values to sort one (name, intro_date, full_data)
19:28:59  <Rubidium> shouldn't you always do that if you want stable sort results?
19:29:51  <samu> daium
19:30:05  <samu> aqueduct costs are so difficult
19:30:08  <samu> to balance
19:31:57  <chillcore> *chillcore still ponders about that max heighlevel setting ...
19:32:29  <chillcore> snowline goes up to heighest level right ...
19:33:02  <chillcore> so why do we need an upperlimit for that ?
19:33:07  <chillcore> 255 done
19:33:16  <chillcore> it is the bottom that varies
19:33:29  <chillcore> untill now always below 15
19:34:03  <chillcore> so igf we raise the top levels become snow
19:34:08  <chillcore> again done
19:34:16  <chillcore> what is the diff with now
19:34:23  <chillcore> is say we lower to  3
19:34:31  <chillcore> the top levell I mean
19:34:46  <chillcore> we hate 1 lien of snow
19:34:58  <chillcore> amse if you come dowwn from 255 to 1
19:35:00  <Eddi|zuHause> <Rubidium> although hearing dubbed things when you are very familiar with the original voices and sounds is really annoying as well <-- yes, as soon as you compare the translation with the original, the translation basically lost.
19:35:04  <chillcore> no snow
19:35:12  <Eddi|zuHause> but a good translation makes you laugh anyway
19:35:12  <andythenorth> hmm
19:35:15  <chillcore> I really misss the point
19:35:21  <chillcore> NewGRF or not
19:35:24  <andythenorth> seems complex sorts are just handled in python by sorted()
19:35:26  <frosch123> chillcore: just grep the source for places where max_heightlevel is used
19:35:32  <andythenorth> htf does that work :|
19:35:35  * andythenorth mind blown
19:35:56  <chillcore> grep ...
19:36:12  <andythenorth> surely if I sort once, then sort again, the order of the first sort is destroyed
19:36:15  <Alberth> andythenorth: ?
19:36:25  <chillcore> k
19:36:44  <frosch123> chillcore: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grep#Usage_as_a_verb
19:36:48  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: supply it a cmp function
19:36:52  <samu> lol, i made the route, now i don't have money for the ship
19:36:56  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: CETS does this
19:37:19  <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: the function is probably in scripts/helper.py
19:37:39  <Eddi|zuHause> and used in scripts/generate.py
19:37:54  <andythenorth> https://wiki.python.org/moin/HowTo/Sorting#Sort_Stability_and_Complex_Sorts
19:37:59  <andythenorth> apparently it magically just works
19:38:00  <chillcore> thx for the link
19:38:03  <andythenorth> according to those docs
19:38:57  <andythenorth> I haven’t tested it, but that example would seem to violate expected behaviour
19:39:01  <chillcore> I can do that on a folder directly ?
19:39:24  <samu> i have a problem, if i lower the cost factor for the aqueduct one more half, then everything else must also be lowered, but then things won't start to make much sense
19:39:33  <samu> cost wise
19:39:55  <frosch123> chillcore: does your editor not allow searching in all files?
19:41:03  <samu> lock pricing doesn't make much sense already
19:41:13  <samu> thx to 2 canal tiles being in the cost
19:41:31  <Alberth> andythenorth: it looks like you sort on the 2nd key first
19:42:19  <samu> at such prices, making ships would also be too good for what I had in mind
19:42:36  <samu> that is, if no aqueduct is used
19:43:43  <andythenorth> maybe it depends on that example using triples
19:43:50  <andythenorth> I have a list of objects I wanted to sort
19:44:29  <andythenorth> I might use a dict of lists instead, grouping on the first sort

19:45:46  <samu> aqueduct at 1/16 will make lock pricing make no sense
19:45:47  <chillcore> was just trying to understand why snowline could be a reason
19:45:56  <Eddi|zuHause> i think
19:45:59  <chillcore> I'll will happily accept another reason np
19:46:00  <Eddi|zuHause> man that was a long time ago
19:46:13  <chillcore> testing
19:46:56  <samu> a 6 sized aqueduct would be cheaper, and 2 locks taking 6 tiles, and with the advantage of building routes underneath
19:47:10  <chillcore> its doing something ...
19:47:11  <samu> typoe, would be cheaper than*
19:47:48  <chillcore> should it take long?
19:47:59  <chillcore> ish
19:48:24  <Eddi|zuHause> samu: how is that a problem?
19:48:49  <samu> 2 locks in a row, will block
19:48:58  <samu> no route underneath
19:49:30  <Eddi|zuHause> yes. so don't use locks in that situation.
19:49:45  <Rubidium> use the chunnel patch... problem solved ;)
19:49:50  <samu> they should be cheaper
19:50:00  <samu> precisely because of that disadvantage
19:50:03  <Eddi|zuHause> no
19:50:44  <Eddi|zuHause> locks have their strength in moving ships up multiple times
19:50:50  <peter1138> Locks never block...
19:51:18  <samu> i mean 2 locks together, one going down, one going up versus 1 aqueduct

19:51:29  <DanMacK> Hey
19:51:35  <Eddi|zuHause> samu: i think your case is bogus.
19:51:39  <samu> the 2 locks structure will create a barrier
19:51:43  <samu> no bridge possible
19:51:45  <Alberth> ho, DanMacK
19:52:15  <samu> but with aqueduct, there's 2 free tiles underneath it, let's me have other routes under it
19:52:24  <Eddi|zuHause> samu: things just don't get cheaper, because they are stupid.
19:55:55  <samu> i want my pricing structure to make sense :P

20:02:19  <Eddi|zuHause> in those cases i usually dig through the layers on my desk to find that knoppix cd i downloaded 5 years ago.
20:02:22  <chillcore> just attach usb screen and go
20:02:38  <chillcore> sorta
20:02:51  <chillcore> would need really small chip

20:54:02  <TrueBrain> talking about Python, here is a nice riddle
20:54:06  <TrueBrain> a = {"a": 1}
20:54:10  <TrueBrain> "a" in a == True
20:54:26  <TrueBrain> what do you think the answer is, and if you would add (), where would they be? :D
20:55:05  <chillcore> 1 pair of ()?
20:55:53  <frosch123> well, the answer is easy to guess from the fact that tb asks a question :)
20:56:11  <frosch123> but to track it off-topic
20:56:27  <frosch123> "== True" and "!= False" is silly
20:56:34  <chillcore> huhu
20:56:37  <frosch123> in all languages except C
20:56:38  <TrueBrain> well, the answer might surprise you in this case
20:56:43  <TrueBrain> as that statement does not really what you expect
20:56:48  <TrueBrain> like .. it really doesnt :)
20:57:01  <frosch123> though C being the exception just shows to silly C is :p
20:57:08  <TrueBrain> "a" is in a, so you would expect it to return True .. but it doesn't :P
20:57:19  <TrueBrain> ("a" in a) == True returns True
20:57:27  <TrueBrain> "a" in (a == True) returns TypeError

20:59:55  <frosch123> why is '"a" in a == True' False ?
21:00:16  <TrueBrain> frosch123: now that is the question ;)
21:00:34  <TrueBrain> not often you see in a language that adding () gives other results than without any :)
21:00:48  <TrueBrain> if I would guess, I would say it does something like type("a" in a) == type(True)
21:00:54  <TrueBrain> which is False

21:23:54  <samu> shouldn't account those 11250

21:47:02  <samu> that river tile was part of someone else area
21:47:11  <samu> and the script destroyed those tiles
21:50:50  <samu> one other bug, though i don't consider it too critical, is upon drag&drop demolishing a large area when locks are in there
21:51:08  <samu> it leaves 1 canal tile behind

21:54:54  <Eddi|zuHause> samu: wrt the river, dynamite always clears the entire tile. it's like removing road stations this way also clears the road.
21:55:20  <Eddi|zuHause> the other thing: are you sure the area was covered with the dynamite?
21:55:41  <Eddi|zuHause> that may be an actual bug.
21:58:50  <samu> when using dynamite on a lock that was built on river/rivercliff/sea, it won't clear the river/rivercliff/sea tiles - works as expected

22:08:23  <samu> i have a suggestion for the way locks are built, they could follow the same rule as docks
22:08:34  <samu> it needs a water tile already in place
22:08:52  <samu> locks should also do the same, they would require 3 water tiles already in place
22:09:10  <samu> problem is that there is no canalcliff in the game
22:09:20  <samu> just create this
22:09:23  <samu> :p
22:10:33  <Eddi|zuHause> docks only need one water tile in place
22:11:24  <Eddi|zuHause> and the way docks work is ... suboptimal.
22:11:24  <samu> hmm drag and drop clears water under the dock
22:11:35  <samu> i didn't expect this
22:11:44  <samu> why?
22:14:55  <samu> which one is optimal then? lock or dock?
22:15:32  <samu> do you want docks to come packaged with a water tile when built?

22:24:58  <samu> does the game have a demolish table or something similar?
22:25:29  <juzza1> what is demolish table?
22:25:47  <samu> special rules for demolishing for each type of structure
22:26:28  <Supercheese> There should be something like that
22:27:45  <Supercheese> town_land.h
22:27:59  <Supercheese> HouseSpec
22:28:11  <Supercheese> I presume you have the source at hand
22:28:22  <samu> me, not looking at it, but I have it
22:29:08  <Supercheese> Well, src/table/town_land.h has "rating decrease if removed"
22:29:20  <Supercheese> among other things

22:49:35  <supermop> what do you guys think about showing purchase sprites from a lower angle
22:49:57  <supermop> like, closer to a side elevation instead of overhead dimetric?
22:52:26  <V453000> why not :)
22:52:48  <V453000> I think especially purchase sprites have a lot of freedom that hasnt been used up yet
22:57:09  <supermop> will it break too many things if tram is longer than normal while loading? visually only
22:57:48  <supermop> i want to have coffee bins removed for loading but then where do they go?
22:58:29  <supermop> is the vehicle info windo sprite same as purchase menu?
23:04:23  <V453000> purchase menu is only purchase menu I think
23:04:31  <V453000> vehicle info windows is just -- view of the vehicle
23:04:45  <V453000> e.g. you could have purchase menu sprite of flatbed wagon for 1 thing
23:04:46  <supermop> ok
23:04:52  <V453000> but in the vehicle info window it always shows the right cargo
23:05:12  <supermop> hmm i messed up this alpha stuff
23:05:27  <supermop> and the chunk of clear plastic is just blue
23:14:33  <Eddi|zuHause> you can also have a separate sprite in list/details/details windows by checking var10 (extra_callback_info1)
23:14:49  <Eddi|zuHause> last one should be /depot
23:15:22  <Eddi|zuHause> the purchase list is special, because the vehicle is not built yet, so some variables cannot be accessed

23:16:18  <Eddi|zuHause> supermop: there's nothing fundamentally wrong with longer sprites, but it may overlap with other vehicles
23:16:40  <supermop> yeah
23:16:42  <Eddi|zuHause> supermop: there may also be clipping errors
23:17:02  <Eddi|zuHause> e.g. under bridges, and stuff
23:17:23  <Eddi|zuHause> they míght be less prominent with standing vehicles

23:27:40  <supermop> is there an easy way in PS to take an area that is grey-ish tinted cyan and make it grey-ish tinted clear alpha?
23:29:34  <V453000> hm
23:29:47  <V453000> I guess easiest is to use the magic wand
23:29:53  <V453000> with the right settings

23:38:02  <supermop> figured out a way in PS
23:38:50  <supermop> but would be way easier if flamingo added alpha info to areas with transparent materials or had an alpha ground plane
23:39:13  <supermop> which it does, just not in the 7 year old version i am using
23:40:39  <V453000> :d
23:41:58  <V453000> flamingo is rendering engine for rhino?

23:44:01  <samu> there's too many ways to build a lock
23:45:03  <samu> on a coast, on a river cliff, on a cliff
23:46:02  <samu> the partial parts can be on bare land, on river, on sea, on canal
23:46:55  <Eddi|zuHause> samu: what i think you are seeing with the drag&drop clearing is that the game loops over all tiles you selected, especially all 3 of the lock tiles. on the first tile, it sees the lock, clears it, and leaves the water pieces. on the second and third tile, it doesn't see the lock anymore, because it has been cleared, so it clears the remaining water tiles
23:49:18  <samu> 4*3*4
23:50:07  <samu> wait, i lie, sea can never be on the upper part
23:50:21  <supermop> V453000: its one of the plugins, and the only one i have now
23:50:29  <V453000> right :)
23:51:03  <supermop> it was the 'best' one back when i was in school, i think there are some more advanced ones now, as well as better versions of flamingo
23:51:09  <samu> rivers can never be on the lower part
23:51:22  <V453000> what does it do though? :P plugin is kind of a broad statement :P
23:51:25  <samu> hmm 3*3*3
23:51:27  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, they can
23:51:39  <samu> they can ?
23:51:42  <Eddi|zuHause> also, the canal may be by you or someone else
23:52:33  <Eddi|zuHause> also, the game probably does not handle this case as "table"
23:52:48  <samu> I see
23:53:19  <samu> so I guess better solution is to create a canalcliff?
23:53:44  *** kais58 is now known as kais58|AFK
23:54:08  <Eddi|zuHause> solution for what?
23:55:20  <samu> locks have some issues
23:55:36  <Eddi|zuHause> what that "solves" is that people drag&drop a canal, and then never figure out why the ships are not using it
23:55:40  <supermop> its a renderer
23:56:15  <V453000> I think I read about it somewhere before yeah :)
23:56:17  <samu> they can't go up rivercliffs either
23:56:20  <supermop> bu it also handles lighting, materials, texture mapping, environment plants, separate from rhino itself
23:56:27  <V453000> :)
23:57:26  <samu> another simpler solution could be
23:57:36  <samu> prevent river tiles from being demolished by drag&drop
23:57:59  <samu> but not singleclick demolish
23:58:55  <samu> hmm
23:59:00  <samu> no
23:59:19  <Eddi|zuHause> samu: but "rivercliffs" (they are actually "slopes" in game terminology, cliffs would be vertical drops between edges) have visual blockings
