05:59:54  * Supercheese debates adding wild animals as newobjects
06:00:00  <Supercheese> would kind of be cute
06:00:16  <Supercheese> well, *more* of them, that is
06:01:07  <V453000> =D
06:01:09  <Supercheese> since the "deer crossing the tracks as disaster" post
06:01:18  <Supercheese> I figured, hmm, maybe some little deer objects
06:02:00  <Supercheese> or moose, those would do more damage
06:02:21  <Supercheese> obstinate blighters, you can walk right up to a moose and yell at it, and it will not budge

06:46:14  <andythenorth> quadruple production is daft
06:53:11  <Supercheese> only for high base prod industries
06:53:21  <Supercheese> for some farms, quadruple still isn't much since their base prod is very low

07:13:33  <planetmaker> I wonder... does the game simply build industries over such objects?
07:14:53  <planetmaker> such object as in objects which simply can be over-built like the company land - but in neutral form like the farm fields
07:15:24  <V453000> I would say no but I havent tried much
07:16:39  <planetmaker> hehe, I have the same feeling :)

07:34:38  <andythenorth> Supercheese: farm production is way bumped up on snakebite FIRS
07:34:45  <andythenorth> people should start trying that branch
07:34:50  <andythenorth> it will have new bugs I think
07:35:28  <andythenorth> http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/firs/push/LATEST/
07:46:50  <planetmaker> andythenorth, maybe start releasing a 'bleeding edge' edition or so to bananannanananas so that it gets some more test coverage?
07:47:38  <planetmaker> but maybe that's too much hassle, too. Dunno :)

17:13:57  <andythenorth> perhaps newgrfs should be able to read a config file
17:14:53  <planetmaker> what would be the difference to a parameter then?
17:15:24  <planetmaker> (except that we then would get undo-knobs and xml-NewGRFs :P )
17:15:34  <andythenorth> parameters are baffling
17:16:03  <andythenorth> most users do not need to change the secondary_combinatory_production_window in FIRS
17:16:10  <andythenorth> they can have what I give them, happily
17:16:38  <andythenorth> already the story for setting up a game with multiple newgrfs and GS is pretty poor
17:16:45  <andythenorth> :)
17:16:50  <planetmaker> yup :)
17:17:46  <Alberth> sounds useful, being able to store complete newgrf setups

17:20:49  <Alberth> (as a separate file)
17:21:39  <Alberth> for some reason, I always reinvent the setup for each game
17:21:44  <LordAro> setting presets have been proposed before, i think?

22:55:58  <mngrif> the cable company where i live keeps track of your modem's MAC and assigns the same IP based on that, so your lease will only change if your hardware does.

To succeed in doing that I needed to use the command for configuration: ./configure --without-freetype LDFLAGS="-stdlib=libstdc++"  After running the game I thought I'd increase the font size. But now the openttd.cfg doesn't have any line for the font.That's how my openttd.cfg file looks like: https://past

23:11:18  <Eddi|zuHause> your sentence was cu
23:11:56  <Eddi|zuHause> but without freetype, you won't have fonts
23:12:16  <Sziha> eh, i see
23:13:07  <Eddi|zuHause> well, only sprite fonts. but probably very few of those exist
23:13:31  <Sziha> well i don't care about the font itself, only about it's size

23:13:44  <Eddi|zuHause> sprite fonts only come in one size
23:13:49  <Sziha> ah i see
23:13:52  <Sziha> too bad! :D
23:14:05  <Eddi|zuHause> there's a gui zoom feature, not sure if that also changes the font
23:14:18  <Eddi|zuHause> also, your patch pack might be too old for that
23:14:38  <Sziha> no, gui is fine. when i use double it makes everyting too big
23:14:42  <Sziha> patch is fine i think
23:14:47  <Sziha> on linux it works perfectly
23:15:02  <Sziha> but my linux runs on virtualbox and the game in it runs too slow
23:15:12  <mngrif> the biggui thing does not change the font
23:15:25  <Eddi|zuHause> no. i don't mean biggui
23:15:33  <mngrif> does osx not have freetype?
23:15:46  <Sziha> so i figured out a way to compile the game on mac. But unless i use --without-freetype i'm getting a linking error
23:16:02  <mngrif> pastebin that error please.
23:16:30  <Sziha> ok, give me a moment to compile it. i'll use regular ./configure command
23:16:40  <Eddi|zuHause> i'm fairly sure lots of people encountered that, and just said "fuck it"
23:17:11  <Sziha> yeah... i can't pass on it :D:D
23:17:44  <mngrif> However, the actual headers and such required to build a freetype2 project do not ship with OS X. To get these, you need to install Xcode; when you install Xcode with any version of the OS X platform SDK, it comes with freetype2:
23:17:57  <mngrif> so looks like osx does have freetype just need to have xcode installed
23:18:14  <Sziha> well i have xcode installed
23:18:16  <Sziha> 6.3.2
23:18:42  <Eddi|zuHause> mngrif: if it throws a linking error, the headers were already found and used well before that
23:19:12  <mngrif> indeed it probably just can't find the shared object
23:19:33  <mngrif> which according to the googs is probably at /usr/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
23:21:07  <Sziha> i have this file
23:21:13  <Sziha> and it's where you say it should be
23:21:25  <mngrif> but does ld know where to find it?
23:21:37  <Sziha> so do you know where do i put this path into the code, so it compiles it correctly?
23:21:59  <mngrif> it might be an option in the configure script, otherwise you'll have to edit the Makefile by hand
23:22:37  <Eddi|zuHause> might be something like "--with-freetype=path"
23:22:56  <Sziha> ok, that's my error: https://paste.openttdcoop.org/pembe1dpq
23:24:59  <mngrif> so much for  it being an easy fix
23:25:41  <Sziha> well without freetype there is no error :D
23:26:04  <mngrif> LDFLAGS="-stdlib=libstdc++" ./configure
23:26:14  <mngrif> try running it just like that ^
23:26:22  <Sziha> ok
23:26:30  <mngrif> it acts as though it can't find libstdc++ actually
23:26:42  <mngrif> the error is  it not finding one of those symbols, not a freetype symbol
23:29:19  <Eddi|zuHause> someone mac-savy should probably fix configure to do that automatically
23:29:49  <mngrif> i have an imac from 2007 on my desk. it's ppc :D
23:30:17  <Eddi|zuHause> just anyone "savy" coming here won't use a mac
23:30:47  <Eddi|zuHause> it's like a clash of cultures
23:31:09  <Sziha> well, i will be the mac-savy soon, because it worked!!
23:31:21  <mngrif> some of the best developers i know use macs. also, none of them play games.
23:31:28  <mngrif> AWWW YISSS
23:31:39  <Sziha> after configuring like you mngrif said: LDFLAGS first, then ./configure
23:31:52  <mngrif> yeah LDFLAGS is a shell environment variable. it must go before any commands
23:32:09  <Sziha> haha, should we change the wiki then?
23:32:18  <Sziha> https://wiki.openttd.org/Compiling_on_Mac_OS_X
23:32:37  <Sziha> in the 'configuring for maverics' it's incorrect
23:33:09  <Sziha> thank you so much mngrif!! it made my day! :D
23:33:25  <mngrif> have fun o/
23:33:41  <Eddi|zuHause> mngrif: now find out where the LDFLAGS get lost
23:33:55  <Eddi|zuHause> or Sziha
23:34:14  <Eddi|zuHause> also, make configure provide this automatically on osx
23:34:41  <mngrif> note: because i have an imac doesn't mean it runs osx...
23:34:49  <Sziha> well this is only for game with the patch already applied
23:35:02  <Sziha> hahaha :D
23:35:25  <Eddi|zuHause> mngrif: you don't need a mac to read the configure script :p
23:35:57  <mngrif> but i dont have bbedit!
23:36:18  *** Myhorta [~Myhorta@00018fad.user.oftc.net] has joined #openttd
23:36:41  <Eddi|zuHause> and i don't get mac in-jokes.
23:37:56  <Sziha> i don't think i do either
23:39:24  <Sziha> just out of curiosity, what fonts and sizes do you use?
23:39:43  <mngrif> dejavu sans, and like, size 18
23:40:03  <Sziha> on full hd monitor?
23:40:08  <mngrif> yea
23:42:54  <Sziha> my mac doesn't have this font lol
23:43:01  <mngrif> lol
23:43:20  <mngrif> http://dejavu-fonts.org/wiki/Download
23:43:59  <Sziha> yeah, i'm installing it now
23:45:49  <mari_kiri> Dejavu is great, I also have them in the original Bitstream Vera form
23:46:19  <mari_kiri> Hence why MS's ripoff of it is called Verdana
23:46:38  <Sziha> Oh, how beautiful! Love it <3
23:47:50  <mngrif> i dont think it fits the game very well, but at least it's 100% readable
23:48:22  <Sziha> Yeah, maybe one day if I feel like, i'll experiment with the fonts
23:48:50  <Sziha> In Office Word I like Cambria/Calibri, but in the game they all look awful :D
23:49:10  <mngrif> the android font would probably be a good one to try
23:54:49  <Sziha> Ok, time for dinner ^^ Thank you again guys :)
23:55:14  <Eddi|zuHause> could try the bold version for the game
