00:45:27  <SmatZ> good there aren't people "killing" servers
00:45:49  <SmatZ> though... I several times wanted to "kill" servers so their admins upgrade to current version ;)
00:46:03  <glx> yeah we could do that :)
00:46:19  <SmatZ> the "SIGSEGV them" way, not "grep at masterserver" way ;)
00:46:22  <glx> but it becomes harder

01:40:45  <kkb1101> often whenever play with a 'blue' company on a network game, it's confusing to distinguish between 'the sea' and 'the blue' in map. How about putting small white dots in the sea?
01:44:48  <welshdragon> kkb1101, or just use another colour for boats
01:47:56  <kkb1101> I just took an example screenshot http://dancingwhale.linuxstudy.pe.kr/ttdblue.png
01:50:48  <welshdragon> that's distinguishable
01:51:05  <welshdragon> the sea has waves anyway
01:51:19  <kkb1101> in the left-right cornor small map??
01:51:27  <kkb1101> upper-left
01:52:20  <welshdragon> that's because it is the wromg overlay
01:52:46  <welshdragon> you need the little train
01:53:13  <kkb1101> you mean the buttons for different view at the bottom?
01:53:32  <welshdragon> yes
01:54:17  <kkb1101> but it's not something 'wrong' and.. actually that is my favorite view
01:54:34  <kkb1101> because I usually join more a server more than 5 people
01:54:40  <welshdragon> yes
01:55:00  <welshdragon> but that view isn't to show vehicles, aircraft or ships
01:55:15  <kkb1101> I know
01:56:16  <kkb1101> the point here is 'the blue company color is undistinguishable with water when use company-color view'
01:57:08  <kkb1101> ok nevermind, nobody needs change, I can make patch myself and use myslef

08:06:07  <planetmaker> I've got an nfo problem: how can I tell grfcodec to interpret a file with the correct character encoding, e.g. Vag?o vs Vag??o
08:06:15  <planetmaker> I'm on linux for this purpose
08:17:43  <petern> grfcodec doesn't care about encoding
08:17:44  <petern> so
08:17:47  <petern> use utf-8
08:17:56  <petern> because openttd wants it
08:17:59  <planetmaker> yes, that's what I try...
08:18:10  <petern> also put the thorn in, as the spec says
08:18:24  <planetmaker> so... I guess, then my question is: how do convert the file from whatever encoding to utf-8
08:18:42  <planetmaker> like vi and using :set enc=utf-8 displays it nicely.
08:19:04  <planetmaker> http://www.tt-forums.net/download/file.php?id=111175 <-- basically I'm concerned about that file
08:19:46  <petern> you've not put the thorn in
08:20:07  <petern> also, why the big space?
08:20:12  <planetmaker> uhm? thorn?
08:20:24  <petern> 09:18 <@petern> also put the thorn in, as the spec says
08:21:09  <petern> http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php?page=StringCodes
08:22:36  <planetmaker> ah, Thanks. That's what I was missing.

08:36:56  <planetmaker> nice. That works almost for Portuguese.
08:38:12  <planetmaker> There's one character, though, which obviously is still interpreted differently than intended: the enumeration symbol 1?G
08:38:45  <planetmaker> (the one in the middle, corresponding to st, nd, rd, th in English, list 1st, 2nd, 3rd)

08:40:06  <planetmaker> anyone an idea how that is called?
08:40:17  <petern> ordinal
08:40:22  <petern> what happens to it?
08:40:25  <planetmaker> knowing the name, I could possibly define a custom character.
08:40:28  <petern> maybe there's just no character...
08:40:38  <petern> tried with a font? heh
08:40:50  <planetmaker> it gets converted into the downward arrow as seen for windows in the upper right corner
08:41:00  <petern> that's wrong
08:41:03  <planetmaker> yes
08:41:47  <petern> no gui characters overlap standard characters
08:42:01  <planetmaker> well. actually the arrow which OpenTTD uses for its scroll bars
08:42:13  <planetmaker> but yeah
08:42:29  <petern> or at least, shouldn't do, heh
08:42:54  <petern> ,...{ 0x00AA, CLRA }, // Feminine ordinal indicator / Down arrow
08:43:10  <planetmaker> uh?
08:43:18  <planetmaker> so... they DO overlap?
08:43:22  <petern> CLRA means it is cleared from the available characters
08:43:31  <planetmaker> meh... :S
08:43:49  <petern> so i have no idea how you're getting it :p
08:44:13  <petern> ,...,...,...case 0xAA: d += Utf8Encode(d, SCC_DOWNARROW); break;
08:44:17  <petern> oic
08:44:34  <petern> hmm
08:46:36  <planetmaker> hm... which source file is that found in?
08:48:00  <petern> newgrf_text.cpp

09:26:42  <eekee> oh yay, non-purple waypoints. I only just noticed
09:28:40  <eekee> now I wish they didn't have white text. They're obscuring my signs and lookign unnecessarily different to the stations I've have to use for multi-track waypoint things
09:29:47  <SmatZ> hehe
09:29:49  <Ammler> hehe, belongs to pm's category "verschlimmbessern" ;-)
09:29:54  <SmatZ> hehe
09:30:02  <SmatZ> what colour would be better?
09:30:11  <SmatZ> or just use black too when zoomed out?
09:30:13  <Ammler> black?
09:30:21  <Ammler> like station signs
09:30:30  <eekee> black like the stations would be better for me
09:30:55  <SmatZ> and signs :)
09:30:57  <eekee> and when zoomed in too, I have lots of waypoints in places
09:31:21  <eekee> signs are white
09:31:36  <SmatZ> really?

09:31:51  <eekee> taking a sceenshot
09:31:57  <planetmaker> they are, if you have background transparency switched on for them.
09:32:10  <planetmaker> then they only have white text.
09:32:24  <planetmaker> (my default setting)
09:32:34  <Ammler> use the canada station set, then you have stations looking like waypoints
09:32:39  <SmatZ> ah
09:32:44  <eekee> ack XD
09:32:51  <eekee> oh I could use it.. yeah
09:34:33  <eekee> http://eekee.org.uk/tmp/2050 Transport Co., 17th Mar 2357.png
09:34:48  <eekee> can anyone spot the "Bradnor North" sign?
09:35:04  <SmatZ> 404
09:35:06  <SmatZ> ah...
09:35:23  <SmatZ> I see
09:35:27  <SmatZ> it's white
09:35:27  <eekee> spaces. blame firefox's tidy url bar lol
09:35:34  <SmatZ> but becomes black after zooming
09:35:35  <SmatZ> out
09:35:40  <SmatZ> that's what I was talking about :)
09:36:01  <eekee> yeah but look at all those white waypoints too. The sign doesn't exxactly stand out
09:36:45  <eekee> and the waypoints are hard to read, which is ok if there were only 1 or 2 but not when they're scattered around like grains of pepper
09:38:05  <eekee> there's probably no 'right' solution though
09:38:36  <eekee> rather than waypoints I'd like a setting to make 1-square-long stations default to non-stop via
09:38:58  <eekee> and some means of making sure forgotten trains don't stop there
09:39:42  <SmatZ> use non-stop by default
09:40:13  <SmatZ> it's generally useful
09:40:34  <SmatZ> there are few exceptions where you don't want to use non-stop
09:40:51  <eekee> I do, but I've got a couple of old saves I still play
09:41:51  <eekee> oh there's the Bradnor West sign I forgot was there lol. This is one of my old games
09:42:01  <SmatZ> if you enable "TTDP-compatible nonstop" in those savegames, all orders will be converted to non-stop when opened in new OTTD version

09:43:39  <eekee> I see "new orders are non-stop by default"
09:44:32  <Ammler> that is the new name for
09:44:48  <Ammler> but on the games you have to change the setting, it is called something with TTDP
09:45:17  <eekee> gotcha

09:47:34  <SmatZ> only those "non-stop" orders of course :-/
09:48:19  <SmatZ> TTDP-compatible = "go via" ... normal = "non-stop"

10:39:17  <petern> what is "lol" about that?
10:39:39  <petern> apart from the massively wide window border
10:39:50  <kkb1101> can you guess the actual size of that monitor? it's 15"
10:40:07  <petern> well, no, that information is there not there
10:40:49  <eekee> holy camel
10:41:03  <eekee> excuse me :)
10:42:32  <eekee> I kinda believe in high resolutions because I feel text antialiasing is wasteful and annoyingly complex, but I would have thought 2048x1536 was about right for a 21" 4:3
10:42:47  <dih> i did not know a 15" screen would give you 2048 pixels across natively
10:43:06  <kkb1101> it's my laptop.  IAQX10N panel
10:43:17  * eekee wants one of htose now :D
10:43:19  <eekee> those
10:44:03  <dih> why?
10:44:16  <dih> why on earth would you squeeze that info on to 15"?
10:44:59  <kkb1101> major reason is... for more lines... good for coding...
10:45:07  <dih> eh... no
10:45:14  <dih> because you can hardly see the pixels
10:45:31  <dih> things get a bit too small (as soon as you get a bit older you'll understand that part) ^^
10:45:35  <kkb1101> at first few days, yes it was hard
10:45:39  <dih> then i'd rather buy something bigger with the same res
10:45:46  <eekee> lol
10:45:50  <dih> + it is not good for your eyes
10:46:20  <kkb1101> maybe.. I don't know  but so far... I think I'm fine :D
10:46:23  <eekee> if everything is scaled up for it it could be beautifly smooth
10:46:49  <dih> i'd still spread the data over a larger area
10:47:06  <kkb1101> yes that works good too. I tried few times.. the edges of texts become so smooth
10:47:14  <dih> i like sitting a bit further away from my screen, rather than using the touch screen with my nose ^^
10:47:29  <kkb1101> lol
10:47:32  <eekee> ya, I have a 640x480 screen on a PDA (4") and some people insist that 80-column text is reasonable on it. It's not, at all
10:47:33  <dih> click
10:47:37  <dih> oops - too close again
10:47:51  <eekee> XD
10:48:10  <eekee> there is that too, OTTD on that thing is very very fiddly :)
10:48:18  <dih> :-P
10:48:22  <dih> anything would be
10:48:37  <eekee> not anything, stuff designed for it has big buttons
10:49:00  <dih> buttons are usually designed in pixel sizes
10:49:08  <dih> so they'd be smaller too
10:49:16  <dih> and my nose aint that small either
10:49:19  <dih> :-D
10:49:32  <eekee> no not in Gtk+, not, I imagine, Qt or any other modern design

10:51:47  <kkb1101> so I replaced.
10:51:57  <kkb1101> bought the panel from ebay
10:52:01  <eekee> I see :)
10:52:02  <dih> pffft ^^
10:52:17  <eekee> I'd do that just for the smoother everything
10:52:23  <petern> a 22" 1680x1050 is about right for my eyes
10:52:33  <eekee> if I had any money. I'm skint right now :(

10:57:45  <petern> or MODE 0, 640x256, 80x32
10:58:04  <eekee> high colour for the machine? The 8-bit ataris had modes with pixels about 8 times as wide as they were high
10:58:28  <petern> however, the output was PAL timing, so the dot pitch was pretty bad
10:58:57  <petern> 2 colours in MODE 0, 4 colours in MODE 1 and 16 colours in MODE 2 (from a palette of 8)
10:59:10  <eekee> 16 from a pallete of 8 hehe
10:59:25  <petern> yeah, the upper 8 were flashing opposite colours
10:59:31  <eekee> Atari had a pallete of 256 so nyea hehe
10:59:36  <petern> opposite within the palette
10:59:37  <eekee> oh the flashing  yeah
10:59:42  <petern> which was nice
10:59:51  <petern> because colour 9 would be red/cyan
10:59:56  <petern> and colour 14 would be cyan/red
11:00:04  <eekee> The one time I got to play with that I chose magenta & green XD;
11:00:34  <petern> the other combos where yellow/blue and black/white
11:00:54  <petern> you could speed up the flashing to produce various shades of not-quite-grey

11:01:27  <eekee> you've actually got me missing school O.o
11:01:32  <petern> pal timings, so it was all interlaced
11:02:06  <petern> the text mode was alright though
11:02:22  <eekee> yeah...
11:02:37  <petern> dedicated teletext chip, so used interlacing properly
11:03:10  <eekee> ah now
11:03:53  <eekee> speaking of interlacing I once had a VGA monitor I had to use interlacing on to get it to display 1024x768
11:04:11  <eekee> Had to put textured backgrounds everywhere to hide the flicker
11:07:20  <eekee> I've had a few monitor adventures. There was a big fixed-resolution monitor, you could get windows drivers for it but linux had no concept of any of that so I had to construct modelines by hand without knowing anything about the monitor
11:09:13  <eekee> I could go on forever about monitors & user interfaces >_>
11:12:53  <eekee> I get on tolerably ok with 'normal' user interfaces but could be better. The menu bar for instance grates, especially when immediately adjacent to a text field

11:46:39  <petern> textured backgrounds would make the flicker worse
11:46:43  <petern> you'd want a solid background
11:48:15  <eekee> actually no. Textured bg makes flicker worse on non-interlaced, but better on interlaced
11:50:33  <SmatZ> interesting
11:50:40  <eekee> yeah...
11:50:55  <petern> must depend on the texture

11:51:33  <petern> as it's the same colour
11:51:36  <eekee> I used a sand-ish bg
11:52:13  <eekee> well monitors will flicker with enough ambient light, and that particular monitor was rather dim
11:52:40  <eekee> in fact it got dimmer, I got less than a years use out of that one

13:41:14  <Condac> then im going to start grouping my veheicles
13:41:30  <Belugas> and here we go, another stressful day of certification has started
13:42:10  <Condac> can i create a group of every train that goes to one station?
13:42:20  <Condac> or do i haev to drag them?
13:43:05  <fjb> Oh, sorry they have to share orders, only grouping is not enough.
13:45:35  <Condac> fjb: but does it change on everyone when i change like i normaly do then?
13:46:19  <planetmaker> Sorry, fjb is right. Having shared orders makes things easier. But if it is just a "send to depot" it works with groups, too
13:47:05  <fjb> When vehicles share orders then all vehicles which share the same set of orders change the oders at the same time. You just have to change the oders of one of them.
13:47:13  <Condac> i dont want to "go to depot" i want to change service interval from 150% to the default or anything else than over 90% with is max
13:47:46  <Condac> i changed from day to % interval and it is some bug that made all trains on 150%
13:47:57  <fjb> Service intervall? Is that settable by oders? Don't think so.
13:48:17  <Condac> and they never service then...
13:48:49  <eekee> fjb: root problem is that service intervals can't be set in multiplayer, right Condac?
13:49:10  <Condac> eekee not the default intervals
13:49:40  <Condac> but we restareted the server and ran the savegame through a singelplayer game and changed the setting that way
13:50:01  <Condac> but now every one is set at 150%
13:50:02  <eekee> that's not right, players should be able to set their own intervals
13:50:38  <Condac> but new vehicles get 50% but all old will never go for service
13:50:50  <Condac> and yes the service interval should be induvidual in mp
13:50:52  <eekee> I don't see any way to set it per-train so I think the last half-hour's discussion may have been based on a misunderstanding
13:51:18  <Ammler> I guess, "they" are working on company based settings. ;-)
13:51:48  <eekee> :)
13:52:35  <Ammler> but maybe, I just missunderstood some commits
13:53:00  <Condac> A totaly new question, when grouped some trains that have the same order and layout, how do i change all orders at the same time or is that not posible?
13:54:12  <fjb> Changing orders as I explained above.

15:43:30  <fjb> Or can I put the depot staying time into the timetable?
15:44:26  <planetmaker> fjb, it's feasable by means of pre-signal abuse and another "clock" train with time-tabled schedule
15:44:57  <planetmaker> but trains in a depot will try to leave. You can abuse that the depot has an integrated combo signal
15:45:03  <Condac> what defines if a industry is "serviced well"
15:45:58  <fjb> Anyway, one long distance train holds more cargo than the stockpile limit of the steel mill is. So If have to pile it at a station and a shunting train carries it to the mill.

15:49:48  <planetmaker> fjb, probably not.
15:49:59  <planetmaker> running costs may differ between "running" and "stopped"

15:51:15  <planetmaker> probably yes

20:44:56  <fjb> Conditinal ordes are missing a % chance. Could be used to build a load ballancer.

20:46:44  <Belugas> blablablablabla
20:46:53  <petern> balance, random is a terrible scheme for load balancing
20:47:30  <fjb> It is at least a scheme.

20:49:34  <Belugas> honestly... ho... i might just go there. not sure.  how many chances that i do decide to actually load my stuff there??
20:49:36  <eekee> randomness can appear to get stuck near one end of their range for quite some time
20:49:41  <Belugas> mmh... let's roll the dices
20:49:59  <Belugas> o_O
20:50:17  <fjb> Then it is not worse than no load ballancing.
20:50:25  <eekee> honestly though I find presignals at the begining of dual tracks balance fairly well
20:50:39  <eekee> ... and have done for some time :)
20:51:42  <fjb> That works when splitting parallel tracks.
20:53:31  <fjb> But it does not work when lines of diffent lenght and complexity reach the same station.

22:07:59  <frosch123> oh, the money thingie :(
22:08:22  <Nite_Owl> later planetmaker
22:08:30  <DangerBoBalazs> sorry, i have the problem: how can i switch the letters to the letters like in 0.6.x?
22:09:09  <SmatZ> DangerBoBalazs: try switching to English
22:09:19  <DangerBoBalazs> ok
22:10:15  <DangerBoBalazs> the letters do not change
22:10:54  <frosch123> are there lots of black boxes on the title screen?
22:11:39  <DangerBoBalazs> when i use the the other base graphics set
22:12:01  <frosch123> the base graphcis can also change the font
22:12:15  <DangerBoBalazs> yes i noticed
22:13:35  <DangerBoBalazs> but when i installed the game, i noticed, that my favoirite letters have changed
22:15:15  <DangerBoBalazs> maybe this is okay, but when i click on the map i can't read the words in that
22:16:11  <DangerBoBalazs> or on that
22:16:31  <DangerBoBalazs> the letters are unreadable
22:16:48  <frosch123> http://wiki.openttd.org/Unicode <- if you are not using the fonts of the spritesets you are using a font specified in the cfg
22:18:37  <DangerBoBalazs> ok, and what should i write to the three places? Thahoma or "Tahoma"? and thats all?
22:25:13  <Chruker> Does the number of terraforming operations matter in respect to town opinion?  ex. if leveling an area, will it then hurt equally if I operate on each tile seperately vs. ex. flatten tiles.
22:25:34  <frosch123> terraforming does not hurt, only killing trees
22:27:24  <Chruker> o'rly? nevermind then
22:28:28  <Nite_Owl> but if you terraform a tile with a tree on it does kill the tree
22:29:24  <DangerBoBalazs> ok thanks your help
22:29:53  <DangerBoBalazs> i changed the fonts, thanks
22:33:44  <fjb> My cargodist game just died. :-(

22:48:42  * fjb doesn't join servers with ! in front of their name.
22:49:41  * eekee either
22:49:48  <Prof_Frink> openttd should sort servers alphabetically by first alphanumerical character
22:50:39  <Nite_Owl> patience is still a virtue
22:51:30  <eekee> are there any other criterion it could sort by? Such as time since game start?
22:54:23  <fjb> First alphanumerical character would give you aaaaaaaaaaaaaSimulationNation World Map instead.
22:54:37  <eekee> it would that
22:56:16  <Prof_Frink> OK, reverse sort by how stupid the name is ;)
22:56:52  <eekee> :D
