14:56:07  <Yexo> planetmaker: do we have graphics for any articulated vehicle in nml?
14:56:30  <planetmaker> road vehicle?
14:56:34  <planetmaker> not that I know
14:56:36  <Yexo> doesn't matter much
14:57:06  <planetmaker> But it's of course easy to use engines and wagons as articulated vehicle, I guess
14:57:13  <planetmaker> I haven't coded any such, though
14:57:38  <planetmaker> E.g. the turbotrain sprites would fit quite well to be used as articulated vehicle
14:59:54  <Yexo> I might just code one of the horse carriages from eGRVTS in nml
15:00:59  <Yexo> are there any sources available for that or do I have to decode the grf?
15:03:24  <planetmaker> OpenGFX has the whole egrvts image. But I know no egrvts sources
15:03:50  <Yexo> so turbotrain will be easier
15:05:02  <planetmaker> maybe better idea: Make from OpenGFX+RV an articulated tram
15:05:11  <planetmaker> By just using the existing tram images.
15:05:18  <planetmaker> Terkhen might buy that from you then :-P
15:05:43  <planetmaker> ^ Yexo
15:05:51  <Yexo> thanks, I'll do that :)
15:07:51  <Terkhen> just having a code example of that would be great :)
15:10:02  <planetmaker> And then prodding DanMacK to produce images for a truely articulated one :-P
15:19:27  <dih> yexo, enjoyed your reply :)
15:20:23  <Yexo> thanks
15:21:15  <planetmaker> so did I :-)

15:49:59  <Terkhen> everything seems as complicated as in NFO until you see a nice NML example :)
15:50:16  <Terkhen> I think I was missing VEH_CBF_ARTICULATED_PARTS when I tried to create an articulated vehicle
15:52:18  <Yexo> one thing I particulary dislike is that you _need_ to manually assign ids for it to work

16:14:13  <Brot6> Example NewGRF Project - Revision 238:c6c40f2df142: Change: [NML] Language handling changed in NML (planetmaker) @ http://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/newgrf-makefile/repository/revisions/c6c40f2df142
16:15:35  <Yexo> planetmaker: maybe also add ##plural 0 to the english.lng file?
16:16:00  <planetmaker> what purpose does that serve?
16:16:17  <Yexo> setting the plural type for the language
16:16:23  <Yexo> it's needed to use the P string code
16:17:01  <planetmaker> oh, without it doesn't work?
16:17:18  <planetmaker> then I guess it's needed
16:17:18  <Yexo> see possible values here: http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php?page=StringCodes
16:17:39  <Yexo> it's only needed when the {P "" ""} string code is actually used
16:18:03  <Yexo> but it always generates an action0, so maybe it's better to leave it out of the example project
16:18:55  <planetmaker> well, that's not that bad... but I guess not that many people will remember to check for that
16:19:31  <Yexo> nml will spit out a warning/error i fyou try to use {P without setting the plural form, so that shnouldn't be a problem
16:19:47  <planetmaker> then I'll leave it out
16:20:11  <planetmaker> as probably only industry newgrfs need it
16:20:24  <Yexo> most likely, yes
16:21:25  <planetmaker> still: thanks for pointing it out. Now I'm maybe aware of it when I come accross that :-)
16:39:14  <Yexo> planetmaker: do you have access to python 2.5.2 to test #2009 ?
16:39:47  <Yexo> does adding "from __future__ import with_statement" at the top of main.py fix the problem?
16:39:59  <planetmaker> yes
16:40:13  <planetmaker> that is what I got when I tried to compile on my university computer ;-)
16:40:35  <planetmaker> let's see...
16:41:59  <planetmaker> hm, without quotes, I assume?
16:42:05  <planetmaker> Then the answer is "no"
16:42:10  *** frosch123 has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
16:49:40  <Yexo> hmm, every documentation I can find says it's introduced in python 2.5 (but you need the import with_statement in 2.5, in 2.6 that's no longer needed)
16:49:56  <Yexo> so if that doesn't fix it I have no idea how to fix it (apart from using try/except syntax instead)
16:56:05  <planetmaker> hm
16:59:18  <planetmaker> Yexo: I could give you access to that machine, if you want to try things
16:59:28  <Yexo> I would have no idea what to try
17:01:48  <Yexo> did you also try to add the above line to grfstrings.py?
17:01:54  <Yexo> that is the file actually using it
17:02:01  <Yexo> sorry for suggesting the wrong file
17:03:09  <planetmaker> yes, that changes things. New error:

17:05:40  <Yexo> fixed ^^

17:07:09  <Yexo> my guess is that you'll get an error about some language file being incorret
17:07:22  <planetmaker> why?
17:07:54  <Yexo> because the last error you pastebinned was in the exception handling in the string code
17:08:29  <Yexo> so either python 2.6 is a bit more lenient wrt to syntax errors there (or there is some new syntax introduced) or your language files contain an error
17:08:46  <planetmaker> well, it works fine without error
17:08:50  <Brot6> nml: update from r1077 to r1089 done - http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/nml/nightlies/r1089
17:08:53  <Yexo> ok, great :)
17:09:04  <planetmaker> also without complaint about language files ;-)
17:09:29  <planetmaker> because the very same thing compiles here quite well

17:09:44  <planetmaker> thanks for the fix :-)
17:10:12  <Yexo> except generic.ScriptError as err: <- apparently that is valid in python 2.6 but not in 2.5, the latter needs: except generic.ScriptError, err

22:56:41  <Rubidium> no, not silly
22:57:30  <planetmaker> transition
22:57:48  <Rubidium> I'll call it maturing
22:58:21  <Ammler> I call it double confusing :-)
23:03:46  <Ammler> also it would be nice, if grfcodec would fail per dafult without png like you do in openttd
23:04:21  <Ammler> then you need something like DISABLE_PNG=1
23:04:30  *** ODM has quit IRC
23:04:51  <Rubidium> openttd doesn't fail if it misses freetype/fontconfig/png/icu
23:04:55  <Ammler> I forgot to enable it on obs :-(
23:05:15  <Ammler> Rubidium: but it does without e.g. lzo2
23:05:37  <Ammler> specially since openttd will need grfcodec with png
23:05:49  <Rubidium> yes, missing those causes savegames to fail to load
23:06:07  <Ammler> missing png causes openttd to fail to build
23:06:30  <Yexo> openttd comes with the grf files so you don't even need grfcodec to build it
23:06:50  <Ammler> then openttd should test if the installed grfcodec has png support
23:08:56  <Ammler> (I just mentioned my troubles...) :-)
23:12:03  <Rubidium> but... old grfcodec just pretend they know the parameter, so you can't quite test the existance of it
23:12:32  <Ammler> who is "they"?
23:14:06  <Ammler> just mention it with grfcodec -v which does actually have copyright by "Josef Dexler", is that legal?
23:15:32  <Ammler> maybe better to output something like "GRFCodec 5.1.0 (libpng12)" or whatever
23:20:40  <Rubidium> Ammler: GPL says to not remove copyright notices :)
23:22:39  <Ammler> ok, if you think it belongs to -v, then you should at least update it
23:23:31  <Ammler> 2000-2005 JD, 2006-2009 DS, 2010 RB
23:25:08  <Ammler> I am also quite sure, GPL says to mention co authors

23:40:08  <Ammler> I am confused, does the copyright by FSF mean, it is GPL or needs that more work?
23:40:32  <planetmaker> it means that the FSF may sue people who violate the GPL on those programmes
23:40:39  *** andythenorth has quit IRC
23:40:45  <planetmaker> otherwise the authors would need to take action themselves
23:41:16  <Ammler> but what is the difference between software licensed under GPL and software copyrighted by FSF?
23:41:31  <frosch123> Ammler: fsf is like a company
23:41:37  <planetmaker> copyright is not a license
23:41:39  <frosch123> you donate your copyright to them
23:41:47  <planetmaker> I also hold the copyright on those GPL'ed stuff I do
23:41:49  <Ammler> how do you do that?
23:42:03  <Ammler> I mean, shouldn't you do that with openttd etc.?
23:42:07  <frosch123> no
23:42:14  <frosch123> it is openttd, not gnuttd
23:42:55  <planetmaker> trains would gallop then. Would look funny
23:43:04  <frosch123> the license is free to use, you can keep your rights, and do not have to give them to the fsf
23:43:24  <Ammler> yes, but that causes a lot troubles
23:43:35  <frosch123> e.g. the fsf is free to relicense the stuff which it has the copyright off
23:43:44  <Ammler> liek you can't change the license of openttd because you need to ask everyone ever contributed
23:44:49  <Ammler> it might be already too late anyway ;-)
23:47:42  <Ammler> wow, membership at FSF is quite expensive
23:49:10  <frosch123> haha, buying membership is like advertising
23:50:01  <frosch123> how much would you pay for being allowed calling yourself a ottd developer :p
23:51:46  <Ammler> I already pay too much for beeing a openttd fan
