09:17:54  <V453000> is it just me or does TTRS glitch so badly with the tall buildings? I think it always did but it seems to me like it increased
09:18:54  <Terkhen> it has always glitched to me, I have no idea if it glitched more or less in the past
09:20:05  <V453000> sucks :( I guess there is no way to prevent that
09:21:03  <Terkhen> IIRC the sprite size was greater than the supported size
09:21:29  <V453000> hm :(
09:30:33  <V453000> so openttd would need to support larger sprites to fix it?
09:32:29  <V453000> hm, I was trying it in scenario editor and there it seems to glitch a lot more :D in normal game it actually isnt _that_ bad
09:33:09  <Terkhen> I don't know what if needed, sorry
09:33:18  <Terkhen> I remember reading about this issue somewhere but I can't find it
09:57:36  <SmatZ> http://devs.openttd.org/~smatz/glitch.png I have only example here
09:57:53  <SmatZ> http://devs.openttd.org/~smatz/ttrs_ttdp_r1962.png it glitches in TTDP too
09:58:22  <Terkhen> yes, in big towns with enough skyscraper and a regular bus service you get glitches everywhere
09:58:36  <SmatZ> yeah
09:58:39  <planetmaker> iirc it's related to the sprite size and the area which is subject to a re-draw check
09:58:41  <Ammler> I guess, 180 is the max high without glitch
09:58:53  <SmatZ> yup, planetmaker
09:59:03  <planetmaker> increasing that area would fix it - but slow down the whole game in all cases
09:59:10  <Terkhen> maybe the sprite size is limited by the specs themselves, therefore you get problems in both OpenTTD and TTDP
09:59:21  <Terkhen> if that is the cost I prefer the glitches :P
09:59:48  <planetmaker> hm... it *could* certainly read the height of all sprites and make it a dynamic thing
10:00:46  <Terkhen> maybe the cost of checking the height and checking a variable area is greater than the cost of just scanning a greater area always
10:01:11  <planetmaker> I meant not per sprite, but per newgrf selection
10:01:35  <planetmaker> i.e. only have TTRS games slow down. All other games keeping the normal pace ;-)
10:01:58  <Terkhen> so... scan height = max(all sprite heights)
10:02:04  <planetmaker> like that, yes
10:03:06  <planetmaker> and ydistance = max_height / 16 + small_const
10:03:41  <planetmaker> ydistance in tiles, small_const, too. max_height in px
10:09:10  *** andythenorth has quit IRC
10:26:30  <SmatZ> I think TTDP allows changing the scan area size
10:29:10  <SmatZ> maybe not... I think there was something about that somewhere
10:29:19  <SmatZ> maybe in a discussion about the scan area size
10:29:35  <SmatZ> that TTDP would need just changing one constant somewhere in the code
10:30:08  <SmatZ> would it be possible to compute height of the highest building?
10:30:25  <SmatZ> including stations, industries, objects?
10:30:29  <SmatZ> *highest = tallest
10:31:06  *** KenjiE20 has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
10:33:09  <frosch123> ttdp supplies some variables for that, though they are said to only change one value where two values need changing
10:33:20  <planetmaker> yes. There's GetSpriteSize(sprite#)
10:33:30  <planetmaker> but it'd need iterating over all sprites, of course
10:33:45  <frosch123> planetmaker: you would also need to iterator over all spritelayouts to get the z position
10:33:58  <planetmaker> true
10:33:59  <frosch123> which won't work if they have some dynamic factor
10:34:19  <frosch123> only option is to check while drawing and remember the biggest height ever drawn
10:38:01  <planetmaker> sucks :S. Still, the sprite height might be a good indicator of what can be expected
10:42:49  <frosch123> i guess it is not too inviable to check the stuff while drawing
10:46:59  *** andythenorth has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
12:21:33  <Terkhen> heh, I managed to crash nml :P
12:21:57  * Terkhen prepares a test grf and a bug report
12:36:24  <Terkhen> given the assertion it triggers this is probably to be expected
12:38:17  <Terkhen> I was trying STORE_TEMP(..., 0x100) to store string parameters into register 0x100, but it seems it does not allow values > 0xFF

17:57:02  <Terkhen> Yexo: thanks for checking it, I'll check how to code around this problem :)
17:57:42  <andythenorth> planetmaker: Yexo any updates on FIRS -> nml ?
17:57:44  <Yexo> store in both register 0x100 and in 0xFF and load the latter
17:57:54  <Yexo> andythenorth: didn't have time to work on it the last few days
17:57:57  <andythenorth> np
17:57:59  * andythenorth is wondering whether to make some FIRS changes
17:58:02  <andythenorth> or wait
17:58:06  *** KenjiE20 has quit IRC
17:58:07  <Yexo> just go ahead
17:58:14  <Yexo> since I'm converting 0.6.4 anyway
17:58:25  <Yexo> so you can change trunk as much as you like without hindering the conversion
17:58:29  <andythenorth> ok
17:58:43  *** KenjiE20 has joined #openttdcoop.devzone
17:59:01  <andythenorth> some of them might be better left I guess, e.g. the 'economies' feature depends on some awk scripts and text files
17:59:19  * andythenorth does other stuff instead
18:00:44  <Terkhen> andythenorth: the changes to var 0x68 were backported, they will appear in the next stable
18:00:51  <andythenorth> how handy :)
18:01:05  <andythenorth> that's better than I expected
18:02:05  <Terkhen> I have a working template in opengfx+ industries for "single industry per town", but pm and I decided that for stuff like the water tower it would be better to do "one industry of this type for every x houses", to prevent having a water tower in the center of a huge town
18:04:39  <andythenorth> makes sense

19:13:55  <Terkhen> :D
19:14:10  <Terkhen> they are going to look suspiciously similar to coal for now :)

19:26:28  <Terkhen> http://devs.openttd.org/~terkhen/screenshots/bulk_truck_1_fibre_crops.png <--- does this look like fibre crops?
19:38:11  <frosch123> white?
19:38:18  <frosch123> i would expect them to be green
19:38:57  <Terkhen> from checking in FIRS I was supposing that they are something like cotton
19:39:42  <frosch123> light yellow might also work
19:39:49  <frosch123> but white looks like paper :)
19:40:03  <frosch123> salt or suggar :)
19:41:43  <Terkhen> or a huge pillow
19:42:11  <Terkhen> andythenorth: what plant are "plant fibres" in FIRS?
19:44:02  <Terkhen> in ECS cargoset for standard TTD vehicles, Fibre crops are yellow

19:54:44  <andythenorth> Terkhen: cotton, flax, jute, coir, hemp etc
19:56:43  <Terkhen> hmmm... what do you think, should I use white or light yellow? I think that light yellow might look better than the white example I pasted
19:56:47  <Terkhen> http://devs.openttd.org/~terkhen/screenshots/bulk_truck_1_fibre_crops.png
19:56:55  <andythenorth> they should travel in sacks or bags or bales
19:57:12  <andythenorth> I don't know why we set bulk on them :P
19:57:36  <Terkhen> and grain should travel covered too but it does not :P
19:58:03  <andythenorth> Terkhen: you can be the designer then in this case :)
19:58:23  <andythenorth> I don't mind
20:27:57  <Terkhen> I think I'm going to leave it white, because I can't set it to a light yellow combination that I like
