01:14:37 * kyevan just stopped a train on tracks, blocking the road
01:14:50 <kyevan> Of course, that's usually a bery bad idea >_>

11:04:25 <TrueBrain> @kick Mark wrong channel
11:05:01 <Eddi|zuHause2> "Das war ein Satz mit X."
11:06:44 <Eddi|zuHause2> ["Das war wohl nix." means something like "fail", and "a sentence with X" plays on exactly that sentence]
11:07:58 * TrueBrain thinks Eddi|zuHause2 is loosing it
11:08:28 <Eddi|zuHause2> yes, sometimes i think that, too :)
11:19:09 * eekee thinks TrueBrain is losing his ability to spell :d
11:36:27 <Bjarni> * TrueBrain thinks Eddi|zuHause2 is loosing it <--- oh, I noticed that he didn't even have anything to loose ages ago
11:37:48 <Eddi|zuHause2> seems you lost it, too :p
11:37:59 <Eddi|zuHause2> let's form a club of loosers :p
11:39:20 * Bjarni nominates Eddi|zuHause2 as arch looser
11:41:02 *** Wezz6400 has joined #openttd
11:41:09 <Bjarni> did you have any luck keeping your staff on NWN instead of OpenTTD?
11:41:53 <phryx> but then work killed me and i had to leave the project to get my priorities straight. :)
11:41:55 *** Diabolic-Angel has joined #openttd
11:42:12 <Bjarni> so you are an undead now?
11:43:50 <Bjarni> so your new priorities is to kill all living beings or ?
11:46:04 <Bjarni> phryx: so you finally realised that OpenTTD is more important than Neverwinter Nights?
11:52:10 <phryx> and yeah im an undead now. :)
11:52:24 <phryx> i am set on destroying all of humanity
11:52:35 <phryx> i just keep failing the rolls you know, damn t20's :/
11:52:49 <phryx> and ofcourse! ottd > all no?
11:53:33 <Bjarni> actually I prefer to have an OS without OpenTTD rather than OpenTTD without an OS
11:54:11 <eekee> hmm indeed, gets to be a pain to organise one's savegames without an OS
11:54:59 <Bjarni> I was more thinking like user input/output
11:55:16 <Bjarni> would suck to play without keyboard, mouse, audio or video
11:56:32 <Bjarni> voice recognition would be kind of cool
11:57:11 <phryx> wouldnt see how it would be able to work tho unless you had an abnormal sense of xy coordinates :9
11:57:22 * eekee googles for an ipk package of openttd for his Zaurus. Finds a 0.3.5 one, wonders if it's worth it
11:57:25 <Bjarni> right now it's slow and not really precise in vocal->text conversion
11:58:24 <phryx> Maybe "Build train station at Coal mine stockholm, Build train station at Power Plant Uppsala connect Station 1 and Station 2 with railway"
11:58:52 <Ammller> how does a RV decide, which loading station it will take?
11:59:19 <Bjarni> it prefers an empty one
11:59:48 <Bjarni> if all are empty, then they tries to get the closest one
12:00:07 <eekee> phryx: that would have to use the ai to build your railway...
12:00:08 <Ammller> still the question when?
12:00:45 <Ammller> when it leaves the other station?
12:01:04 <Bjarni> <Ammller> but when? <-- more than once... every time it enters a new tile or something... it can change it's decision if needed
12:01:20 <phryx> eekee: i see the problem.... :P
12:01:27 <Ammller> but then, it doesn't function
12:01:32 <Bjarni> <Ammller> when it leaves the other station? <--- no, it has to be within 15 tiles or something
12:01:37 <Ammller> at least for drive through
12:02:11 <Bjarni> Ammller: now you need to tell more about what your issue is
12:02:25 <Ammller> mom, I will take a screen
12:02:30 * Bjarni notes to himself: never ask anybody on IRC about their issues... it could take ages
12:05:55 <Ammller> the southern part should be taken now
12:06:35 *** KritiK_ has joined #openttd
12:07:33 <eekee> I think you need the split in the tram tracks to be closer
12:07:42 <eekee> closer to the station, that is
12:08:09 *** KritiK_ is now known as KritiK
12:10:29 <Ammller> could it be, that something changed since the cache thing
12:11:11 <Ammller> for me it looks just randomly which stop it takes
12:11:22 <Ammller> but most time the not free one
12:12:16 <eekee> well is the station already taken when the tram chooses which path to take?
12:18:58 <Ammller> or better, thats the question, when chooses the tram
12:52:22 <Bjarni> Ammller: for testing purposes, try to make a track in front of the station, so the tram can turn in the last moment if needed
12:52:47 <Bjarni> it should work the way it is displayed in the screenshot, but...
12:54:13 <Ammller> we already did much testing with RVs but aren't able to know, how it works
12:55:08 <Ammller> I think, there is something else, then on good old "drive ins"
12:56:07 <Bjarni> post a bug report on this one with a savegame
12:56:54 <Ammller> hmm, then we have to make a special save
13:00:35 *** Diabolic-Angel has quit IRC
13:04:21 *** Diabolic-Angel has joined #openttd
13:07:42 <Ammller> Bjarni: rv yapf code is written in c++?
13:08:05 <glx> Ammller: all yapf code is c++
13:09:07 <Eddi|zuHause2> yapf wasn't exactly programmed with drive through stops in mind...
13:11:38 <Ammller> maybe, drive through patch is worse
13:11:45 <Bjarni> either was multi road stops
13:12:19 <Bjarni> I guess this is a combo of several features that triggers some unintended behaviour
13:13:35 <Bjarni> however I'm not really familiar with this part of the code, so I can't put my finger on where this issue is located
13:14:45 <Ammller> hmm, since trams, rv is more importend then before :)
13:15:39 <Bjarni> yeah, that's another thing. Trams themselves are an addon after the other patches were written
13:21:19 *** Diabolic-Angel has quit IRC
13:21:33 <phryx> errrr, anyone stumbled upon the ground changing constantly while playing? :S

15:53:34 *** Brianetta has joined #openttd
15:56:07 <kyevan> ... So, erm. If I set up a server, would someone be willing to help show me the ropes?
15:57:38 <kyevan> (Also, someone should hack on a decent locale detector... if my LANG environment variable is LANGUAGE=en_US:en_GB:en, it should probably default to $ and driving on the correct side of the street for the US >_>)
15:57:52 <Bjarni> what do you have to trade for this info?
15:58:16 <kyevan> Bjarni: Hmms... goodwill and friendship?
15:58:40 <Bjarni> sounds like a great deal
15:58:44 <Bjarni> for at least one of us :P
16:23:43 <Wolf01> uhm, i think there's an error in the vc80 project
16:24:02 <Wolf01> it says that it can't open tables/strings.h
16:26:18 *** Deathmaker has joined #openttd
16:27:01 <Wolf01> maybe is because there isn't a strings.h in the table folder
16:27:48 <Wolf01> so the vc80 project needs to be updated
16:28:03 <glx> I already updated it IIRC
16:28:27 <Eddi|zuHause2> possibly did not run strgen...
16:31:02 <glx> it uses the correct path since r10231
16:33:48 <hylje> Progman: you there? i'd like you trying to break opr again
16:35:00 <Progman> (1062, "Duplicate entry '' for key 2")
16:35:19 <hylje> unique constraint of database
16:36:27 <Wolf01> glx can you help me to setup vs2005?
16:36:35 <hylje> ah so you're randomly rambling there
16:36:46 <Progman> your password field is unique?
16:38:07 <Progman> missmatching passwords at registration results in no error message
16:38:42 <glx> Wolf01: what do you want to know?
16:38:51 <Eddi|zuHause2> hehe, this could be funny... "you cannot choose this password, somebody else already has it" :p
16:38:52 <Progman> aaah, no, the username is unique
16:39:27 <hylje> as a matter of fact i'm adding some validation to the registration, among other things due to your great input :)
16:39:30 <Wolf01> how to include libpng and zlib, and maybe how to fix some other errors
16:41:30 <glx> extract openttd-useful.zip in VC/include and VC/lib
16:41:31 <Progman> "[u'No file found!']"
16:41:35 <Eddi|zuHause2> isn't there a wiki entry on this?
16:42:07 <Eddi|zuHause2> it was a rather rhethorical question :)
16:48:47 <hylje> you can thumbs up or down
16:48:48 <Progman> and the src-code shouldn't wrap
16:49:22 <Progman> comments are moderated or not implemented?
16:49:38 <hylje> comments should work, but i havent tested them out recently
16:49:47 <hylje> chances are they can be in limbo
16:50:17 <hylje> however ive located a bug in checklist code, one i couldnt have located by my own
16:51:10 <Progman> and maybe you already noticed the author name ;)
16:52:17 <hylje> the user code is not my own, so it lacks some validation
16:52:21 <Progman> none of them are from you
16:52:31 <Progman> and javascript action again \o/
16:52:57 <Progman> and the profile name is at the menu, looks like a float:left bug
16:53:39 <kyevan> So how does OpenTTD's data search work?
16:53:58 <hylje> and arbitrary javascript, where? :)
16:55:07 <Progman> hylje: what about forgetting password?
16:56:41 <hylje> another bug i couldnt look for by myself :)
16:57:39 <hylje> yes, it looked up by user (the logged in user) instead of this_user (the looked up user)
17:01:24 <Progman> never trust input from users ;)
17:01:52 <hylje> username is something i erroneusly treat as somewhat valid
17:02:16 <hylje> considering limiting username glyphs to alphanumeric and whitespace
17:02:26 <Progman> link for "omg, an ? in a w?rtchen" doesn't work
17:03:46 <Eddi|zuHause2> hey, shouldn't this be called an "alpha" until it is at least even remotely doing what it should?
17:03:53 <kyevan> Would it be possible to make openttd merge folders before it looks for stuff?
17:04:05 <hylje> i'm having random users test it
17:05:03 <kyevan> For example, it looks in ~/.openttd/, then the dir it's launched in, then the system-wide install dir?
17:05:33 <kyevan> (Rather than what it does now, which is look in the system-wide directory, OR ~/.openttd/, depending on what it's looking for)
17:06:50 <kyevan> (A lot like how PhysicsFS allows you to work. Using/notusing the lib itself is up to the implimentor, but it's a nice idea.
17:06:57 <Progman> and the onclick javascript on the link "testing" still works
17:07:37 <Progman> if uploading a new patch the old one get deleted?
17:07:52 <hylje> the old patch gets bumped as the next-newest
17:08:07 <hylje> you can access it, too, but not as straight-forwardly
17:09:12 <Progman> either its the layout or the system but it doesn't look/feel intuitive right now
17:09:56 <hylje> layout comes after the thing works
17:11:12 <hylje> registration should be a lot saner now
17:11:39 <Progman> is this application on top a framework?
17:12:43 <hylje> patch version that's version is ".."
17:13:36 *** Wezz6400 has joined #openttd
17:15:26 <Progman> Invalid filter: 'better_wordwrap' o_O
17:17:03 <hylje> looks like i'm not loading it at all places
17:17:12 <hylje> i'm eating some stuffs now, bbl :p
17:34:44 <hylje> hm i cant reproduce the filter error
17:35:22 <hylje> one can't input silly versions no more

17:54:56 <Sacro> www.internetisseriousbusiness.com ← hehe
17:56:21 <arctic> For those involved in the "Mouse disappears in fullscreen"-discussion yesterday, I just thought I would drop by and report that the problem went away after an upgrade of SDL to 1.2.12 (from 1.2.10)
17:56:22 <Sacro> glx: just holding enter does it
17:59:21 <Prof_Frink> Sacro: That wasn't very nice of mister orudge
17:59:39 <Sacro> Prof_Frink: no it wasn't :(
17:59:50 <Prof_Frink> So... what's on that site then?
18:00:28 <Prof_Frink> I don't trust a banz0r-worthy link

18:29:17 <TrueBrain> arctic: good to know it was a SDL problem :)
18:29:34 <arctic> Truebrain: Yeah :P And now I'm able to play again :-)
18:29:45 <TrueBrain> that is even better news :)
18:30:06 <TrueBrain> I wish the order system was a bit better... trams are difficult to handle now
18:30:33 <arctic> Ohwell, I'm off for now,, ttyl!
18:41:12 *** Desolator has joined #openttd
18:44:03 <Desolator> any dev around here? or some guy who can make a simple patch
18:44:26 <guru3> what's this about patching?
18:44:37 <guru3> (i'm not a dev i just am curious about what you're asking)
18:45:04 <Desolator> i want a patch to add the revision number to the special build section on file information
18:45:36 <Desolator> so I can get it without digging in changes.log (which has gived me some headaches)
18:46:33 <kyevan> ... Is anyone working on font kerning in OTTD? Some things (af comes to mind) look almost like there's a space in there!
18:46:36 <Desolator> there's only a dash in that section right now
18:48:11 <Bjarni> Sacro: not THAT button :P
18:48:48 <Prof_Frink> Pfft, you shouldn't be able to kill IRC from a *button*
18:49:37 <Prof_Frink> Well, I suppose the power button would work
18:49:43 <Bjarni> it's the universal app killer
18:50:08 <Prof_Frink> Bjarni: Only if you IRC client is running on the computer that PSU's connected to
18:50:57 <Prof_Frink> If I was running on Sharpley, then I could restart my computer, and you'd only see me as /away
18:51:19 <kyevan> Prof_Frink: Most people aren't smart enough to run irssi in screen somewhere they SSH to.
18:51:29 * kyevan does the first two, but it's running on localhost
18:52:03 <Prof_Frink> Sharpley's a road in Loughborough, after which my friend's server is named.
18:52:31 <Prof_Frink> Although, it's not based in that road at the moment
18:52:56 <Bjarni> well, I have managed to run XChat on a headless unix server... I think that is kind of like the same
18:54:37 <Bjarni> heh, I remember Sacro's reaction when I did that from the lab at uni... at around midnight
18:54:58 <Bjarni> like it would be odd to spend your time in a lab at that hour :/
18:55:33 <Bjarni> btw did I ever tell you when I left?
18:56:34 <Bjarni> well, when I stayed late, I said "ok, now I will avoid the rush hour". Turned out that I didn't.... I could enjoy the next one instead :s
18:57:27 <peter1138> should i upgrade to gutsy?
18:57:48 <Bjarni> that depends... do you have enough guts to do it?
18:59:32 *** Sacro was kicked by peter1138 (unoptimal response)
19:00:45 <Desolator> peter1138: check my query please
19:01:22 <Desolator> ok, do you have one minute?
19:01:56 <Diabolic-Angel> someone else might
19:02:01 <Diabolic-Angel> why dont just query everyone?
19:02:13 <TrueBrain> let me prepare a kick line..
19:03:56 <TrueBrain> hmmm.. I want to buy a new tv, but I am kind of list in the onces available....

19:51:03 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: richk * r10852 /branches/NewGRF_ports/src/newgrf.cpp:
19:51:03 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: [NewGRF_ports] -Fix: Added reading of Prop 19 Vehicle Feature.
19:51:03 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: Byte not yet stored, but was causing misreading of .grfs that already contained it.
19:57:12 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: richk * r10853 /branches/NewGRF_ports/ (6 files in 3 dirs):
19:57:12 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: [NewGRF_ports] -Feature: Added heliport to airportsbasic.grf. Added Heli-EndTakeoff stage.
19:57:12 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: Fix: Terminals (and especially helipads) were being incorrectly selected. Terminals may now be selected if the vehicle already owns the terminal bit.
19:57:13 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: Add: Added SetAll function if 0xFF found in blocklist.
19:57:14 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: Fix: Corrections to large airport (mostly heli-related).
20:00:58 *** Ammlller has joined #openttd
20:01:45 *** Ammlller is now known as Ammler
20:03:03 <Rubidium> Ammler: drive through stations were before trams and trams were there before articulated vehicles. Trams find the correct station type (as they can only go to drive throughs). That articulated road vehicles (excluding trams) can go to non-drive through stations is a bug in the articulated vehicles implementation and not the drive through implementation.
20:05:26 <Ammler> hmm, thx, I didn't talk about bugs... and about aRVs either, but I think there is a problem of choosing the right free drive through
20:05:56 <Ammler> it works very well with drive ins
20:16:53 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: rubidium * r10854 /branches/NewGRF_ports/src/fsmblockmap.h: [NewGRF_ports] -Fix: GCC wants that you specify that a constant is uint64 (unsigned long long).
20:17:30 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: richk * r10855 /branches/NewGRF_ports/docs/NewGRFAirports.doc: [NewGRF_ports] -Add: Added newgrf spec to docs directory.

20:26:47 *** waxman_ has joined #openttd
20:53:22 <Bjarni> Sacro: you should take better care of your apps... you keep killing the wrong ones :p
20:54:20 <Bjarni> from Sacro's point of view, everything is killed
20:55:10 <hylje> depends on his architecture
21:18:11 <DaleStan> RichK67: I'm running into a few issues with the FSM spec:
21:18:11 <DaleStan> 1) Please try again on prop 0E. Between mismatched parentheses and code that doesn't match any parsing I can generate, I'm rather confused. Currently, I'm interpreting it as 0E <num-dirs> {<dir> <X> <Y> <tiles>}..., with <tiles> being <X>*<Y> bytes, and the large mess repeated <num-dirs> times. This eliminates the "00 00" terminator.
21:18:11 <DaleStan> 2) In prop 0E, <tile> and <mini-pic tile> should probably both be extended bytes, since 09 supports more that 255 tiles.
21:18:11 <DaleStan> 3) Your prop 1Ds all seem to be three bytes long, not four, as the spec would suggest. Which is correct?
21:18:13 <DaleStan> 4) I can't encode prop 23 without an insane quantity of work. Would it be possible to join it to prop 0E or delegate it to a callback? (Akin to CB 149, maybe?)
21:18:16 <DaleStan> 5) Did you check with Patchman before taking those text IDs? There's a chance that CC00..CF00 are internal duplicates of C800..CB00.

21:28:18 <Dephenom> any reason why i cant patch the source code for 0.5.2 with patches from the forum's?
21:28:50 <peter1138> yeah, patch against the revision the patch is made for
21:31:10 <TrueBrain> yeah, my 'only load' patch is done :)
21:32:38 <TrueBrain> now I can finally make the network I always wanted :)

21:38:21 <RichK67> hi Dalestan... sorry ... was elsewhere
21:41:43 <RichK67> 1) on 0E... 0E <numdirs> (<dir> <width> <length> <minipic_tile> (<tile>)* ) * <-- missing final bracket ... dont see why you have difficulty matching up, did you look at the comments in the .nfo ... they are pretty clear (check airportsextended.nfo for a multi direction version)
21:42:35 <RichK67> yeah, 00 00 probably not needed
21:43:27 <DaleStan> Check airportsextended.nfo <-- Which is where?
21:43:30 <RichK67> 2) "extended bytes"?? wtf??? no such thing ... byte is 8 bits... word is 16...
21:44:20 <RichK67> damn... sorry missed it out
21:44:29 <DaleStan> Yes, extended bytes do exist. The size "B*".
21:45:16 <RichK67> so how many bits in an extended byte
21:46:00 <RichK67> easiest way to get to airportsextended.nfo... checkout the NewGRF_ports branch... its in \bin\data\sprites
21:46:04 <DaleStan> Internally? 16. In the grf? 24 if the first 8 bits are all ones, 8 otherwise.
21:46:46 <RichK67> ah... so FF announces a word then
21:46:54 <DaleStan> Yep. It's "<byte> or FF <word>".
21:47:02 <RichK67> okies... i can handle that
21:47:34 <RichK67> 3) yeah, spec is just ahead of my coding... i added the hangar id as an afterthought (good one too!)
21:47:47 <DaleStan> The prop 09 spec lists <num> as an extended byte.
21:48:20 <DaleStan> I expect Open already has a function to read an extended byte somewhere. They're all over the NFO spec now.
21:49:34 <RichK67> dunno how we'd handle it in the maparray... the current target for the tiletype is a byte
21:51:40 <DaleStan> Or you could add a callback like 14, and then access the first 256 tiles in 0E, and the remainder through the callback.
21:55:10 <RichK67> err.. no i was meaning that our map array stores the tiletype itself, and draws the graphic from that... a lot of coding to extend that... and i really really doubt someone is going to create an airport with > 256 tiletypes any time soon... i wont ;)
21:55:43 <RichK67> so, perhaps that part is useful to note for future work... the todo list beckons... :)
21:57:03 *** Wezz6400 has joined #openttd
21:58:11 <RichK67> item 4) would this be solved by adding the x and y?? i can simply not use them, but if it makes the parser happier
21:59:18 <DaleStan> That would work too.
22:00:20 <RichK67> i actually removed it from earlier draft as it was duplication... but if it helps... would actually be good to validate it against size read in 0E
22:05:16 *** gravix is now known as SERVEPRO
22:07:10 <RichK67> would it make life simpler if prop 23 just did the same as prop 0E... but ignored the minipic tile??
22:08:12 <DaleStan> Right now I've got the format for 23 identical to 0E, except without <minipic_tile>.
22:08:25 <RichK67> yeah, thats fine by me
22:25:41 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: rubidium * r10856 /branches/NewGRF_ports/bin/data/sprites/ (5 files): [NewGRF_ports] -Codechange: use svn:eol-style native for the nfo files too.
22:26:35 <DaleStan> RichK67: Re #5: On delving into the patch source (1) It's Csaboka who wrote newhouses, not Patchman, and (2) it looks like C8xx and C9xx are what overlap.
22:28:54 <DaleStan> But something funny is going on in there, because town names go through the same function as house names.
22:33:57 <Rubidium> hmm, grfcodec does funny things: Can't read data\sprites/airportsbasic.pcx: No such file or directory
22:34:55 <Rubidium> when doing grfcodec -e airportsbasic.grf in the data directory. It has sprites/airportsbasic.pcx, it just shouldn't add the "data\"
22:35:18 <DaleStan> No, it should use exactly the PCX file specified in the NFO.
22:35:18 <Rubidium> DaleStan: do you know a solution for that?
22:35:46 <DaleStan> If the NFO says "data\sprites/airportsbasic.pcx", then that's the file it will look for.
22:35:47 <RichK67> on issue of which ids to take... not checked with patchman/csaboka, but would be easy enough to change later
22:36:22 <Rubidium> aha, then I've got something to fix ;)
22:47:26 <DaleStan> RichK67: Are you using the special airports build (r1660E) of NFORenum I created a while back? I've got data files ready that'll fix everything except the complaints about CB13 not being valid, but the airports build needs a slightly different 0.dat than anything built from SVN.
22:48:13 <RichK67> ah, no... i dont think so.. just the normal nforenum
22:50:53 <DaleStan> Can you DCC receive?
22:54:43 <RichK67> i think my firewall traps it... use ttforums pm if you can

23:05:27 <RichK67> DaleStan: thanks, got that... small thing... where is the .renum directory?
23:06:57 <DaleStan> First, check the directory where the NFORenum executable is. Then look in \Documents and Settings\<username>\.
23:07:37 <kyevan> Is there any form of town/city merging or annexing in the game?

23:14:38 <RichK67> (btw added * to start of line, else i cant paste comments!)
23:15:23 <DaleStan> Make sure you removed the "00 00" from your prop 0Es. Also check your 1Ds, and make sure they're all the correct length.
