00:01:24  <MTsPony> Question, is there some file that dictates pathing for scripts? as soon as i copy my server to another folder in linux i get script errors
00:01:27  <MTsPony> bg: [script] dutch:121: warning: String name 'STR_CITYBUILDER_SS_TOWN2_NAME??' does not exist in master file
00:01:33  <MTsPony> script seems to work fine otherwise
00:24:45  <Eddi|zuHause> mixing / vs. \ maybe?

00:55:32  <MTsPony> um.
00:56:10  <MTsPony> im not transitioning to windows :p
00:56:34  <MTsPony> is there anything indexed somewhere? like libs, scripts etc?
00:56:50  <MTsPony> or does the game just bluntly read all folders to see what exists?
00:57:05  <MTsPony> like grfs are indexed in openttd.cfg
01:01:10  <Eddi|zuHause> there is no index. on game startup, a number of folders (described in the readme) is scanned, most notably the current working directory and the ~/.openttd directory, and all script/grf/whatever files are detected
01:02:41  <Eddi|zuHause> what's in the openttd.cfg is not which grfs you have, but which ones should be activated in a new game

10:58:31  <LSky`> isnt this supposed to be in the scenario section of the forums?
10:58:32  <LSky`> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=70917
11:00:59  <V453000> probably
11:03:08  <planetmaker> yeah, you're right, LSky` . I'll move it
11:04:41  <planetmaker> hm... that's in the Transport Tycoon section only. That's... not idea. I guess I have another suggestion for Owen :P
11:04:44  <V453000> why did the 32bpp section get merged btw? :D
11:06:21  <planetmaker> V453000, pointless to have it separate.
11:06:29  <planetmaker> it's nothing special with regard to development processes
11:06:41  <planetmaker> and its existence triggered people to believe it is
11:06:51  <peter1138> It is for TTDP players :D
11:06:53  <V453000> :D
11:06:57  <planetmaker> :D
11:07:00  <V453000> :)
11:07:18  <V453000> it felt special! :(
11:07:50  <peter1138> I bet they still want PNGs
11:08:39  *** HerzogDeXtEr [~flex@88.130.162.197] has joined #openttd
11:08:45  <LordAro> you must admit, the "new" way is more complicated that the way it was done
11:09:31  <V453000> defining 32bpp additional_sprites was nothing special tbh
11:09:58  <planetmaker> LordAro, not really. It's actually easier
11:10:31  <planetmaker> no need to count sprite numbers etc. I just add it to a NewGRF and I'm done
11:10:39  <planetmaker> no special naming either
11:10:52  <planetmaker> no special in any respect
11:11:03  <LordAro> easier? before all they had to do was dump the pngs into a tar file (which caused enough issues, typically enough). true, they've got to number the sprites, but no writing NFO/NML
11:11:20  <planetmaker> LordAro, and all name them correctly. And re-name them when you changed the grf it referred to
11:11:33  <LordAro> and this was largely before nml, iirc
11:11:38  <planetmaker> so 32bpp development was a BIG PITA really
11:12:06  <LordAro> oh, definitely
11:12:10  <planetmaker> you needed an unmoving base. Which you usally don't have. Not even for the base set's extra grf
11:13:09  <V453000> yeti-base shall show them bastards! :P
11:13:21  *** Pereba [~UserNick@187.58.50.213] has joined #openttd
11:13:56  <planetmaker> yeah... especially V's NewGRFs are no base at all. Constantly changing :P
11:14:06  <V453000> :P changed that a lot recently
11:14:35  <LordAro> :p
11:14:48  <LordAro> and multi-hundred MB downloads :p
11:15:01  <V453000> eazy!
11:15:13  <V453000> hey, it is only 144 mb now :P
11:15:17  <V453000> zbase has 250 I believe
11:15:44  <LordAro> 250? was only 45 last i checked
11:15:57  <V453000> :D
11:16:02  <V453000> idk then
11:16:21  <V453000> I downloaded it just once and upon discovering how awful it is I never bothered again really
11:17:18  <peter1138> Don't forget about setting the offsets for all those PNGs whenever you changed one...
11:17:31  <peter1138> And of course it sucked for performance.
11:19:41  <peter1138> V453000, thought about making a 8bpp version? ;)
11:20:12  <peter1138> I wonder, did the system to allow users to only download the bits of a NewGRF they need get implemented?
11:20:52  <V453000> you mean 8bpp version of yeti?
11:21:08  <peter1138> Errr.... yes, you should know I was looking at the thread...
11:21:09  <V453000> it does define 8bpp sprites, just overwrites them with 32bpp
11:21:19  <planetmaker> peter1138, OpenTTD would support it. But there's no means to download it from bananas
11:21:22  <V453000> and there is nothing to really be interested in
11:21:40  <V453000> wat peter1138  :D
11:22:12  <V453000> k well now I see that you are looking at _the_ thread XD matterz it?
11:22:39  <V453000> regardless, making a lightweight version could be cute, but how/why
11:23:02  <peter1138> Dunno really :p
11:23:05  <V453000> + lightweight doesnt need to be 8bpp, 32bpp is fine if I remove extra zoom and animations
11:23:11  <planetmaker> V453000, OpenTTD considers NewGRFs equivalent when stripping them of anything which is not 8bpp 1x sprites
11:23:25  <V453000> O_O
11:23:25  <peter1138> Hmm, true, it's x4 zoom that bloats it.
11:23:41  <planetmaker> and in principle one can strip the 'big' newgrfs of those extra sprites they provide and offer stripped versions for download, e.g. to save bandwidth
11:23:42  <V453000> aha
11:23:55  <V453000> didnt have a clue about that
11:24:27  <planetmaker> while grf format and openttd support it, there's no such interface yet in the game or bananas to select only certain bit depth or maximum zoom level for the sprites
11:24:36  <planetmaker> for your downloads from bananas
11:24:37  <V453000> so theoretically I can have a lightweight 8bpp version on the devzone that people could use if they cannot download the big one?
11:24:38  *** kero [~keikoz@pha75-1-81-57-54-15.fbx.proxad.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
11:24:48  <V453000> right
11:24:52  <peter1138> Theoretically.
11:24:52  <planetmaker> in theory, yes
11:24:59  <V453000> :D
11:25:11  <peter1138> Of course, what computer doesn't support 32bpp these days...
11:25:13  <V453000> well lets see how many people will have stone age connection and complain that they cant download it
11:25:14  <planetmaker> grfstrip (part of grfcodec) gets you that grf
11:25:31  <V453000> aha, very nice so I dont even have to have 2 versions of the code
11:25:35  <V453000> hm (:
11:25:41  <planetmaker> no, of course not. That's the point :)
11:26:18  <planetmaker> authors create the version packed with everything. And that result can be stripped-down to the bit depths and zoom levels requested by a user
11:26:33  <planetmaker> it just misses an interface so that it's actually used
11:26:36  <V453000> sounds reasonable
11:27:08  <planetmaker> there simply was no need so far either
11:27:19  <planetmaker> you might trigger that need :P
11:27:56  <V453000> Almost gives me a reason not to cheat on 8bpp images :D
11:28:01  <V453000> yeah I guess
11:28:13  <V453000> though lets see how successful my current masking method gets
11:28:19  <planetmaker> well.. cheat. Just do a cheap conversion 32bpp to 8bpp
11:28:31  <V453000> for most of the industries it reduces the size a ton
11:28:39  <V453000> I know, that is what I did :P
11:28:40  <Eddi|zuHause> try to avoid the magic blinking colours while doing that :p
11:28:45  <V453000> magix
11:28:46  <planetmaker> well then :) It's no cheat
11:29:06  <V453000> I rather meant missing animations in 8bpp yet loading that amount of sprites :P
11:29:16  <V453000> is 2048 sprites for 8bpp in such case
11:29:18  <V453000> per industry
11:29:50  <planetmaker> they don't eat disk size really. It's the 4x 32bpp sprites which do :)
11:30:10  <planetmaker> they're 4*4 = 16 times bigger :)
11:30:33  <V453000> I know :)
11:30:42  <V453000> especially if you load each of them twice XD
11:30:42  <Eddi|zuHause> but 2048 times the same sprite doesn't really help, as the compression is per-sprite only, not over the whole grf
11:30:52  <V453000> yes :)
11:31:03  <V453000> that is why it is a cheat Eddi :P

11:40:07  <planetmaker> isn't TTT something like 3D OpenTTD?
11:40:31  <V453000> nothing is like openttd as far as I know :P
11:40:35  <Eddi|zuHause> but that was never even properly released
11:40:40  <V453000>  /me doesnt know very far though
11:41:33  <Eddi|zuHause> what was released was an early beta version, and then it died a painful legal death

21:38:08  <NGC3982> Can someone remind me; Why arent we running OpenTTD servers of RPI's?
21:39:35  <frosch123> for the same reason why you do not run your cellphone with one
21:40:21  <FLHerne> NGC3982: Because Pis are aargh slow
21:40:58  <NGC3982> I fail to see how they lack the processing power for dedicated servers.
21:41:18  <NGC3982> Although, this has been discussed. I just can't remember why it wasn't the best of ideas.
21:41:20  <FLHerne> And if servers aren't CPU-limited (which they sometimes are on sane hardware, let alone Pentium-300 analogues) they're network-limited
21:41:34  <frosch123> what makes you think servers would need less power?
21:41:56  <FLHerne> And Pi networking is on the USB bus, and tends to cause total hangs in case of continuous max throughput
21:42:26  <FLHerne> The server uses as much CPU as the client, barring blitting
21:42:48  <MTsPony> try again with 15 companies and 1000+ trains and some CB script and 20/30 GRF's ;)
21:43:24  <MTsPony> even a i7 4.5GHz gets as high as 60-70% on the process  (tho in a vm so there might be some overhead)
21:43:32  <frosch123> ah, true, gamescript even add to the power :p
21:43:51  <frosch123> though usually it is not much
21:44:01  <MTsPony> Usually :p
21:44:05  <frosch123> likely blitting is more than gs
21:44:15  <frosch123> MTsPony: they cannot really do much
21:44:31  <MTsPony> its another 5-10% of the cpu, on a 4K x 4K map with 'only' 100 cities/towns
21:44:38  <frosch123> if they want to do stuff, they have to run commands, which have strong limits
21:46:25  <MTsPony> still, 1000 ships, 1000 trains, some 1000 road vehs etc last time on my server, load is pretty bad ass, even on my intel compiled binary which already reduced cpu usage by a whole load lol
21:46:45  <MTsPony> with all the fancy tricks, resolution at 1,1, all fancy stuff off server side, load on corner of the map, etc etc
21:47:07  <frosch123> resolution shouldn't have any effect since 0.6 :p
21:47:12  <MTsPony> 4k x 4k map, pretty hefty :o way more then client side load :D
21:47:16  <MTsPony> meh probably not,
21:47:22  <MTsPony> did it anyway :p
21:47:35  <MTsPony> better safe then sorry

22:18:46  <peter1138> Yeah, a Pi sucks for OpenTTD.
22:19:21  <NGC3982> Too bad. It would be optimal.
22:19:34  <peter1138> Something too slow would be optimal. Right.
22:20:02  <NGC3982> Of course you understand what i mean
22:20:14  <NGC3982> A small open source based system running a small open source based game.
22:21:22  <peter1138> Is Pi open source now?
22:21:33  <NGC3982> I guess the Pi itself is not
22:21:40  <peter1138> The graphics chipset was rather closed up previously. Maybe that's fixed.
22:21:44  <NGC3982> But everything about it is similar to everything about you guys.
22:21:47  <peter1138> Everything?
22:22:36  <peter1138> It's a small underpowered machine that runs Linux. There's loads of them around, called home routers.
22:22:52  <NGC3982> Are you comparing the Raspberry Pi to a router?
22:22:53  <peter1138> The Pi is quite a nice machine running RISC OS, though.
22:23:00  <peter1138> No, routers are generally more useful.
22:23:05  <NGC3982> I see.
22:23:06  <FLHerne> NGC3982: OTTD is quite a long way from 'small', in code or hw requirements
22:23:34  <NGC3982> I still don't understand the fact that the server uses the same amount of CPU as the client.
22:23:43  <NGC3982> Since that is not what i experience.

22:23:47  <FLHerne> NGC3982: My router is faster than a first-gen Pi, and you can get ones with more RAM
22:23:47  <NGC3982> h
22:23:50  <peter1138> Because it has to do exactly the same processing as a client.
22:23:52  <NGC3982> FLHerne: Hehe.
22:24:13  <FLHerne> Also, it doesn't hang under network load (which would be daft in a router but is somehow acceptable if it's a hobby thing)
22:24:17  <peter1138> Routers generally have much faster networking than a Pi does.
22:24:28  <__ln__> someone said Pi is really good for very few other things besides playing video/media, and by a strange coincidence playing video/media is exactly what the chipset used by Pi is meant for.
22:25:01  <peter1138> Yes, but it's not very good for that, because the user interface to select your media is horribly slow.
22:25:07  <NGC3982> How come i can run my five (huge) servers with no issue on an old P4, and my i5 struggle with one of them?
22:25:36  <peter1138> What's the clockspeed of each?
22:26:05  <NGC3982> I do think my P4 is somewhere around 3GHz, and the i5 is a ..480M, perhaps?
22:26:09  <NGC3982> Ah.
22:26:12  *** bdavenport [~davenport@aeolus.mindlesstux.com] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
22:26:23  <NGC3982> Wait, the P4 is single-core, i guess..
22:26:36  <peter1138> What speed does a 480M run at?
22:26:45  <NGC3982> Per core?
22:26:47  <NGC3982> Let's see.
22:26:54  <peter1138> What speed.
22:27:03  <peter1138> M implies mobile, so probably quite slow.
22:27:08  <NGC3982> 2,66GHz, according to their website.
22:27:26  <NGC3982> But i have no idea how to translate that into "per core", since that seems to make a difference for OpenTTD.
22:27:40  <peter1138> No it doesn'.t
22:27:44  <peter1138> No it doesn't.
22:27:49  <peter1138> It's 2.66 GHz.
22:27:57  <peter1138> Each core can run at 2.66 GHz.
22:28:03  <NGC3982> Aha
22:28:15  <NGC3982> Well, that explains it.
22:29:20  <peter1138> It's possible your i5 is running in a power saving mode.

22:30:24  <FLHerne> NGC3982: OTTD doesn't multithread very well (autosaving, linkgraph calculation - is rendering threaded?)
22:32:58  <peter1138> But an i5 at 2.66 GHz should easily compete with a P4 at 3 GHz, regardless of multiple cores.
22:37:42  <FLHerne> I don't think the IPC difference is that dramatic, and if his P4 is just running a headless server with no rendering and not much other overhead
