07:20:10  <DDR> Hello. Just wanted to say I had a dream about this game. Then I installed it. It was as good. I love you all. Goodnight.
 
07:25:05  <Eddi|zuHause> your face looks weird, you should see a doctor about that
 
07:29:03  <Forked> you like it? I found it on the internet

12:46:31  <IceGuest_75> I'm trying to make a dedicated server with !goal feature
 
12:46:42  <IceGuest_75> But i can't find anything relevant to how to install a script like that
 
12:46:46  <IceGuest_75> Or whatever software it is
 
12:47:00  <Rubidium> primarily because they're quite secretive about that
 
12:47:45  <Noldo> Gandalf and his friends?
 
12:47:50  <Rubidium> the people with a goal server, e.g. I tried to contact Ex but never succeeded with that
 
12:47:55  <IceGuest_75> Rubidium so no chance of finding out how to do it ?
 
12:49:08  <Rubidium> I wouldn't say no chance
 
12:49:45  <IceGuest_75> Any idea how one would go about writing the software/script
 
12:49:50  <Noldo> can it be done with an autopilot like thing?
 
12:49:56  <IceGuest_75> What scripting/programming language should one know ?
 
12:52:10  <dihedral> cannot be done with ap
 
12:52:24  <dihedral> openttd must be heavily patched to make a goal server
 
12:52:43  <Noldo> what kind of goal do they use?
 
12:53:06  <IceGuest_75> A goal like who reaches company value of X $ wins would be hard to make
 
12:53:22  <IceGuest_75> I mean you would make a timer or on each end o month get the company value of each company
 
12:53:47  <IceGuest_75> And if one has over the constant pause the game declare the winner restart the server in X time
 
12:54:29  <IceGuest_75> Doesn't seem too complicated :P
 
12:55:19  <dihedral> company value is fetchable
 
12:55:34  <IceGuest_75> I did find a complicated feature
 
12:55:38  <dihedral> however, if 2 had reached the value, you could not tell which one was first
 
12:55:57  <IceGuest_75> dihedral whichever has the best value :P
 
12:56:21  <IceGuest_75> Either that or one could make a timer to check the company value at each X seconds or minutes
 
12:56:59  <dihedral> why do you want yet another goal server?
 
12:57:05  <dihedral> are the other ones full already?
 
12:57:30  <IceGuest_75> dihedral for my local community
 
12:57:37  <IceGuest_75> local as in for my country :)
 
12:58:33  <dihedral> how many openttd players do you have from that country?
 
12:58:36  <IceGuest_75> I already have a couple of other gaming servers and want to promote OTTD
 
12:58:58  <dihedral> well.... have fun ^^
 
12:59:20  <IceGuest_75> I found a more complicated goal server. You would build your HQ in a city and do /claim to claim the city. The scenario was desert and you would need to bring in water food goods diamonds to flourish the city. The one who makes X population city wins
 
12:59:55  <IceGuest_75> If i'm not mistaken might have been from Ex too, i know it's named City Mania
 
13:00:11  <IceGuest_75> Is there a way to disable terraforming ?
 
13:00:51  <IceGuest_75> patching as in applying a new grf ?
 
13:01:06  <glx> no as changing the source
 
13:01:07  *** Ammler is now known as Guest1007
 
13:01:29  <IceGuest_75> What language is it ?
 
13:02:03  <IceGuest_75> yeah probably in the following years i'll achieve this on my own =)
 
13:02:37  *** Guest1007 is now known as Ammler
 
13:02:58  *** Luukland has joined #openttd
 
13:03:10  <Luukland> Its me Luukland from the misssisssippi
 
13:05:12  <Luukland> I sat upon a solid rock
 
13:05:26  <Luukland> Making the flowers dance before the morning dew
 
13:05:42  <Luukland> I was listening to their moist sound
 
13:05:56  <Luukland> Just like as if I were together with you
 
13:06:02  <Goulp> hey IceGUest75, try with Luukland, he is a kind of pro in goal server
 
13:06:24  <Luukland> Someone wanting to speak the old men?
 
13:06:59  <IceGuest_75> Yeah Luukland can you share knowledge on how to make a company value goal server?
 
13:07:41  <Luukland> Let me ask you first, do you know C++?
 
13:07:57  <IceGuest_75> I know PHP up to OOP
 
13:08:18  <IceGuest_75> I've only given other languages a chance up to pointers
 
13:08:26  <Luukland> ouch, well, first you need to checkout the svn source
 
13:08:44  <Luukland> if you use Tortoise in windows for example
 
13:09:24  <IceGuest_75> So first step get Tortoise
 
13:09:31  <Luukland> and checkout the svn
 
13:09:44  <IceGuest_75> Downloading it now
 
13:09:57  <Luukland> What compiler do you use on windows?
 
13:10:12  <Luukland> will need one also :P
 
13:10:22  <IceGuest_75> I've used wy.... something for C
 
13:11:11  <Luukland> cygwin is for linux right?
 
13:11:20  <IceGuest_75> Used it with netbeans
 
13:11:23  <IceGuest_75> I can't really remember
 
13:11:27  <IceGuest_75> As i was doing it blindly
 
13:11:37  <dihedral> Rubidium, looks like 2 pro's have met eachother ^^
 
13:11:43  <IceGuest_75> But i did make a hello world and few micro projects on C
 
13:11:51  <Luukland> Uhu, well I would recommend visual C++ Express
 
13:12:15  <IceGuest_75> Getting visual C++ express too
 
13:13:17  <Luukland> There are some pages on the wiki with some more tools you would need
 
13:14:14  <Luukland> Follow these steps closely
 
13:14:25  <IceGuest_75> visual c++ express vs visual studio 2008
 
13:15:02  <Luukland> studio needs licence
 
13:15:30  * dihedral extends his ignore list ^^
 
13:15:47  <IceGuest_75> I'm sure i could've found one for visual studio
 
13:15:56  <IceGuest_75> but i'll get express then if you insist
 
13:16:39  <Luukland> U ask me how to do it, so I tell you :p
 
13:16:57  <Luukland> if you manage other way around, please be my guest :)
 
13:17:16  <IceGuest_75> No i'm fine with what i have :D
 
13:17:54  <Luukland> ok then the next step is understanding of the openttd source code
 
13:18:25  <Luukland> just compile, test, change something, compile again, see if it works
 
13:18:34  <Luukland> also known as the "Scientific method"
 
13:19:00  <Luukland> What are u spamming about deBoerIsTroef?
 
13:19:11  *** lewymati has joined #openttd
 
13:19:16  * deBoerIsTroef is done understanding the source code
 
13:19:49  <IceGuest_75> Microsoft Silverlight Runtime Do i need this ?
 
13:20:04  <IceGuest_75> It comes with the visual C++ isntall
 
13:20:04  <dihedral> you are done understanding ALL the source code??
 
13:20:13  <Luukland> If you just need to compile OpenTTD it's enough if you don't select any options
 
13:20:27  <Luukland> read the wiki guide :P
 
13:21:17  <deBoerIsTroef> dihedral: I _was_ being a bit ironic of course... i thought it was funny to call the next step 'understanding the source code' ;)
 
13:21:21  <deBoerIsTroef> kind of a big step :)
 
13:22:16  <Luukland> still if you want ever to reach the top, you need to understand every part below you
 
13:22:33  <Luukland> understand isn't the same as knowing
 
13:22:57  <IceGuest_75> Till visual express installs i'm going to wash the dishes before they rot in the sink
 
13:23:55  <Luukland> You also need to understand clients and servers IceGuest_75
 
13:24:23  <Luukland> and then, patch, play and enjoy (something some others have problems with)

13:37:59  *** IceGuest_75 is now known as IceGuest_75[A]
 
13:37:59  * IceGuest_75[A] is now away - Reason : Auto-Away after 15 minutes
 
13:43:01  * Eddi|zuHause petitions for an auto-away-kick
 
13:44:13  <IceGuest_75[A]> bah DirectX Software Development Kit 468 MB
 
13:45:09  <Goulp> DirectX: just for music playing
 
13:46:40  <Luukland> heated up until 80 degree
 
13:46:46  <Luukland> warming my cosy little cottage
 
13:52:12  <Eddi|zuHause> how much is that in real temperatures?
 
13:53:25  <Eddi|zuHause> @calc(80-27)*5/9
 
13:53:30  <Eddi|zuHause> @calc (80-27)*5/9
 
13:53:30  <DorpsGek> Eddi|zuHause: 29.4444444444
 
13:53:52  <Eddi|zuHause> that can't be right...
 
13:55:42  <Goulp> he didnt precise the real unit of degree (°C, °K, ...)
 
13:56:11  <Luukland> K does not excist actually
 
13:59:51  <Luukland> Graden celsius	Fahrenheit	F =  C  1.8 + 32
 
14:00:13  <DorpsGek> Luukland: Error: Something in there wasn't a valid number.
 
14:00:23  <DorpsGek> Luukland: Error: Something in there wasn't a valid number.
 
14:00:44  <Luukland> @calc ((80-32)/(1+4/5))
 
14:00:44  <DorpsGek> Luukland: 26.6666666667
 
14:01:10  <Eddi|zuHause> so, 32, why did i remember that as 27?
 
14:02:03  <Eddi|zuHause> and why does my table not feature this conversion?
 
14:03:10  <Luukland> Fahrenheit	Raumur	Re = (F - 32) / 2.25
 
14:03:49  <Luukland> @calc ((80-32)/(9/4))
 
14:03:49  <DorpsGek> Luukland: 21.3333333333
 
14:04:18  <Eddi|zuHause> google says 26.666...
 
14:04:24  <Luukland> my cosy little cottage temperature
 
14:04:37  <Luukland> then the bot must be broken
 
14:06:19  <Eddi|zuHause> Réaumur is some different scale...
 
14:06:35  <Eddi|zuHause> where 100°C = 80°R
 
14:07:17  <Eddi|zuHause> according to my table...
 
14:09:41  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, temperature scales tend to be linear (at least it doesn't tell any different here)
 
14:10:02  <Eddi|zuHause> 0°C=0°R and 100°C=80°R
 
14:10:08  <Eddi|zuHause> 0°C=32°F and 100°C=212°F
 
14:14:33  *** zachanima has joined #openttd
 
14:17:26  <Eddi|zuHause> anyway, 26°C sounds a little high for a room temperature
 
14:18:07  <IceGuest_75[A]> depends on what you're wearing Eddi|zuHause
 
14:18:40  <Eddi|zuHause> shorts and a t-shirt, and it can't be more than 18°C in here...
 
14:19:08  <IceGuest_75[A]> 25 oC in my room
 
14:20:31  <Eddi|zuHause> is romania continental or mediterranean climate?
 
14:20:32  *** HerzogDeXtEr has joined #openttd
 
14:21:03  <Eddi|zuHause> or something else?
 
14:21:56  <IceGuest_75[A]> between temperate and continental.
 
14:22:48  <IceGuest_75[A]> You'd have temperatures between -25 oC and 30 oC
 
14:22:50  <Eddi|zuHause> continental is part of temperate... temperate is split into oceanic and continental
 
14:23:32  <IceGuest_75[A]> Pretty decent air OC on computers in the winter
 
14:23:48  *** Terkhen has joined #openttd
 
14:23:54  <Eddi|zuHause> where oceanic zone is britain, intermediate zone in central europe and continental is in russia
 
14:24:03  <IceGuest_75[A]> I hate geography.
 
14:24:36  *** Oberzten has joined #openttd
 
14:24:39  <IceGuest_75[A]> or meteorology
 
14:25:18  <Eddi|zuHause> the difference is that oceanic has little variation between summer and winter, and continental has high variation
 
14:25:37  *** Oberzten is now known as Imbaaa
 
14:26:01  <Eddi|zuHause> it's imba, he should be nerfed
 
14:26:12  <Belugas> hoooooo.... that is such a good news!  I'm all excited
 
14:27:07  <Imbaaa> Luukland's goalserver starting in 3 min!!
 
14:27:21  <Imbaaa> be there and see my imba skills
 
14:27:51  <Eddi|zuHause> i don't think anybody cares
 
14:29:33  <Imbaaa> is people here all about coding and programming stuff?
 
14:30:26  <Belugas> well... for sure, not admiring the skills of all newcomers...
 
14:30:51  <Belugas> coding, programming, ttd talking, enjoying life in general
 
14:31:23  * Goulp wonders if he can remove his coat or has to  wait stable temperature
 
14:31:49  <Belugas> dpends what is your goal :)
 
14:33:22  <Imbaaa> mby im a newcomer here
 
14:33:56  <IceGuest_75[A]> installed direct X SDK
 
14:33:57  <Belugas> indeed, and enjoy life
 
14:34:04  <IceGuest_75[A]> Next openttd_useful.zip ?
 
14:34:22  <Goulp> yes, and dont forget to updates includes and lib folders
 
14:34:38  <Belugas> is it next step on the install sheet of the wiki?  been so long...
 
14:34:44  <IceGuest_75[A]> updates includes and lib folders ?
 
14:35:16  <Goulp> yes, in order for the compiler, then the linker to use the include files and lib files
 
14:35:22  *** welshdragon has joined #openttd
 
14:35:56  <IceGuest_75[A]> You are reffering to this: Headers/libraries to compile with MSVC for Windows  ?
 
14:37:23  <Goulp> Copying from OpenTTD needed includes and libraries
 
14:37:25  <IceGuest_75[A]> Haven't reached that point yet :D
 
14:37:36  <Goulp> you have some extra stuff to do
 
14:38:11  <Goulp> from SDK : Go to Tools -> Options, then to Projects and Solutions -> VC++ Directories. Add the following lines:
 
14:40:00  <IceGuest_75[A]> I'm looking at position 412
 
14:40:18  <IceGuest_75[A]> Wtf is with the Login Logged in as Kurt
 
14:41:47  <Imbaaa> because he took the screenshot
 
14:41:58  <IceGuest_75[A]> Goulp Go to Tools -> Options, then to Projects and Solutions -> VC++ Directories. Add the following lines:
 
14:42:03  <IceGuest_75[A]> I do this in visual express ?
 
14:42:37  <Imbaaa> mby he forgot to remove something from the side
 
14:43:09  <IceGuest_75[A]> Imbaaa it has a html submit input
 
14:43:14  <IceGuest_75[A]> That's not a screenshot =)
 
14:43:22  *** |Terkhen| has joined #openttd
 
14:57:05  <IceGuest_75[A]> I've downloaded the useful zip
 
14:57:14  <IceGuest_75[A]> I had 4 archieve
 
14:57:18  <IceGuest_75[A]> i extracted from them also
 
14:57:27  <IceGuest_75[A]> But i can't find \shared\include
 
14:57:35  <Luukland> Hmmmm IceGuest_75[A]
 
14:57:46  <Luukland> Maybe openntd useful 2.3 is better to use
 
14:58:42  <IceGuest_75[A]> The one i downloaded is openttd-useful-2.4-source
 
14:58:52  <Luukland> they updated it recently
 
14:59:04  <IceGuest_75[A]> Did i get the wrong one ?
 
15:00:15  <Luukland> it should be the same
 
15:00:29  <Luukland> can you google for the 2.3?
 
15:00:37  <Luukland> if the /shared is in that one
 
15:00:49  <IceGuest_75[A]> I'll download it now
 
15:02:56  <IceGuest_75[A]> openttd-useful-2.3-source
 
15:03:02  <IceGuest_75[A]> Can't find shared folder in this one either
 
15:03:19  <Luukland> skip the shared folder step :P
 
15:03:30  <IceGuest_75[A]> Copying from OpenTTD needed includes and libraries
 
15:03:33  <IceGuest_75[A]> Seems pretty important
 
15:04:00  <deBoerIsTroef> IceGuest_75[A]: you really need to get 2.4
 
15:04:13  <IceGuest_75[A]> Which one should i download?
 
15:04:16  <Luukland> there is a minor button at the top
 
15:04:48  <Luukland> just click everything
 
15:05:17  <IceGuest_75[A]> Thanks deBoerIsTroef

15:23:05  <deBoerIsTroef> IceGuest_75[A]: did you install the DirectX SDK?
 
15:25:27  <Chris_Booth> Ohh ginger tolls they are Troll with red hair from Scotland
 
15:25:30  <MyCatVerbs> Eddi|zuHause: really mean, horrid, basically racist slang term for human being with red hair.
 
15:26:00  <Chris_Booth> Eddi|zuHause: these people can also be called lepracorn and gingas
 
15:26:35  <MyCatVerbs> Eddi|zuHause: it's funny because it's actually just as hurtful to yell 'ginger!' at someone as most other racial slurs, but political correctness hasn't actually noticed yet. :P
 
15:27:24  <Chris_Booth> well MyCatVerbs i think it is more hurtfull as some racis slag can be correct
 
15:27:36  <Chris_Booth> yet it is never correct to call someone ginger
 
15:27:47  <deBoerIsTroef> ooooh it's going totally offtopic here
 
15:27:53  <Chris_Booth> Tim Minchin is a ledgend
 
15:28:12  <MyCatVerbs> Chris_Booth: it isn't accurate? How does that work?
 
15:28:33  <MyCatVerbs> Also, seconded. Tim Minchin++.
 
15:29:14  <Chris_Booth> well no one that you call ginger is actualy ginger
 
15:29:27  <Chris_Booth> MyCatVerbs: ginger is a root of a plant used in cooking
 
15:29:39  <Chris_Booth> so how can someone with red hair be a ginger?
 
15:30:00  <MyCatVerbs> It's also the name of a hair colour.
 
15:30:14  <Chris_Booth> yet if you call someone from pakistan a pakki (ok it is very nasty term) and i dont like the work, but it is correct
 
15:30:30  <Chris_Booth> not realy the hair colour is abourn
 
15:31:15  <Imbaaa> LOL GUYS THERE IS A ABOURN

15:33:28  <IceGuest_75[A]> deBoerIsTroef Yes
 
15:33:30  <IceGuest_75[A]> Sorry i was afk
 
15:33:41  <IceGuest_75[A]> I also added the folders like wiki said
 
15:34:40  <IceGuest_75[A]> But i don't understand how to do this step: dd the DirectX headers subdirectory through the openttd project properties -> C/C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories
 
15:35:20  <Goulp> IceGuest_75[A]: follow steps
 
15:36:16  <Goulp> select project properties
 
15:36:43  <Goulp> take care to use modify both config (Debug & Release) together
 
15:36:46  <IceGuest_75[A]> Tools -> Options
 
15:37:32  <IceGuest_75[A]> Or Project -> Proprieties
 
15:37:37  <Goulp> which one are you playig with ? (2005 or 2008)
 
15:38:07  <Goulp> is step sdk fully made ?
 
15:38:43  <Goulp> also add include folder and lib files to vc++ direcorties ?
 
15:38:46  <IceGuest_75[A]>  openttd project properties -> C/C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories
 
15:39:38  <IceGuest_75[A]> ..\objs\langs;..\src\3rdparty\squirrel\include this is what i have there
 
15:39:43  <Goulp> so in the additional incl dir, you just add the folders from sdk include and openttdusedelfull includes
 
15:39:57  <Goulp> you should have a button to add a folder
 
15:40:20  <deBoerIsTroef> he's in project properties, not general folders for whole VC
 
15:40:34  <IceGuest_75[A]> That's correct deBoerIsTroef
 
15:40:59  <deBoerIsTroef> gotta go, good luck
 
15:41:22  <Goulp> then go to tools/options/projet&sol/vc++ dirs
 
15:42:19  <IceGuest_75[A]> i have the SDK\Include folder in Include FIles
 
15:42:24  <IceGuest_75[A]> At the bottom of the list
 
15:42:27  <Goulp> you shoud have a cmbox with displau folder for "type of file"
 
15:42:48  <IceGuest_75[A]> And ottd essentials \ shared \ include   on the top of the list
 
15:42:48  <Goulp> choose in this box "include files"
 
15:42:54  <IceGuest_75[A]> This is for Include Files
 
15:43:03  <IceGuest_75[A]> I am there Goulp
 
15:43:21  <Goulp> the you shoud have a button to add folder
 
15:43:35  <Goulp> beeween check mark and delete cross
 
15:43:40  *** deBoerIsTroef has left #openttd
 
15:43:54  <Goulp> then use this button to add the include folder for sdk
 
15:43:54  <IceGuest_75[A]> What do i add?
 
15:44:00  <IceGuest_75[A]> I already did that
 
15:44:25  <IceGuest_75[A]> i have added SDK\Include   and ottd essentials \ shared \ include
 
15:44:33  <IceGuest_75[A]> I added in library too
 
15:44:37  *** Eddi|zuHause has joined #openttd
 
15:44:41  <IceGuest_75[A]> SDK \ Lib \ x86
 
15:44:46  <IceGuest_75[A]> and win32\library
 
15:44:55  <Goulp> then it should be ready to compile
 
15:45:02  <IceGuest_75[A]> Now i am looking at Compiling
 
15:45:11  <IceGuest_75[A]> Add the DirectX headers subdirectory through the openttd project properties -> C/C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories
 
15:45:20  <Goulp> you checkout the trunk ?
 
15:45:36  <IceGuest_75[A]> Opened projects/openttd_vs90.sln
 
15:45:57  <IceGuest_75[A]> How do i add directx headers subdirectory through the openttd project properties
 
15:46:17  <IceGuest_75[A]> I am in C/C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories But don't know what to do
 
15:46:30  <Goulp> if sdk folder has been alreadey added, there is no need to do it again
 
15:46:51  <Goulp> so project open, then request for a build
 
15:46:59  <Goulp> and watch output window
 
15:47:30  <IceGuest_75[A]> objs/Win32/Debug. where is this ?
 
15:48:15  <Eddi|zuHause> IceGuest_75[A]: subdirectories of your checkout
 
15:49:09  <IceGuest_75[A]> Eddi|zuHause nope
 
15:49:33  <IceGuest_75[A]> Folders i have in the checkout are .svn (hidden) bin docs media os projects src
 
15:49:36  <Goulp> Debug will be created as soon as you request a build to the compiler
 
15:49:41  <Eddi|zuHause> IceGuest_75[A]: they only exist once you made a successful build
 
15:49:58  <IceGuest_75[A]> Building solution now
 
15:52:28  <IceGuest_75[A]> I guess it will take some time

15:56:51  <IceGuest_75[A]> But i can't find this folder
 
15:57:10  <Imbaaa> like in this is sparta
 
15:58:29  <Luukland> IceGuest use windows search :P
 
15:58:41  <IceGuest_75[A]> I'm blind sorry
 
15:58:50  <Goulp> in the folder created by svn you should have an objs folder

16:01:51  <Luukland> in the lang folder :p

16:07:25  <Rubidium> not to mention openttd[dw].grf
 
16:08:01  <IceGuest_75[A]> This is what my data folder contains:    openttdd.grf openttdw.grf opntitle.dat orig_dos.obg orig_dos_de.obg orig_win.obg sample.cat trg1r.grf trgcr hr ir tr
 
16:08:48  <IceGuest_75[A]> where do i get the missing files?
 
16:08:51  <Rubidium> so you're missing the obs file(s)
 
16:08:58  <Rubidium> in the bin/data directory in your checkout
 
16:09:28  <IceGuest_75[A]> Replace existing files i believe?
 
16:09:45  <Rubidium> those files are generally also the files you want to have in the data folder instead whatever you copied from somewhere else, otherwise you might get missing graphics
 
16:10:09  <IceGuest_75[A]> Yeah i will put them in my game also
 
16:11:29  <IceGuest_75[A]> Thanks for the help so far
 
16:11:34  <IceGuest_75[A]> Luukland now what :D /
 
16:12:08  <Goulp> Now, start to modify source code with your needs
 
16:12:12  <Luukland> Understanding the code :)
 
16:12:26  <Luukland> Change something, test :)
 
16:12:33  <Goulp> put your name in the about box
 
16:18:52  <IceGuest_75[A]> Can't find a file related to it
 
16:19:14  <IceGuest_75[A]> Any folder you might suggest?
 
16:19:54  <IceGuest_75[A]> My first bet was lang files
 
16:20:13  <Luukland> just search for rubidium in the files
 
16:25:21  <Luukland> and see if you succeeded
 
16:27:41  <IceGuest_75[A]> Now i should try to make the game 3D right?
 
16:27:51  <Luukland> well next step is set max loan to 600000
 
16:27:54  <IceGuest_75[A]> As in 360 spin
 
16:27:56  <Luukland> instead of the 500.000
 
16:28:00  <Goulp> 3D hollogram in the middle of the room
 
16:28:03  <Luukland> cos Who cares about soo little loan
 
16:28:09  <IceGuest_75[A]> On it Luukland
 
16:28:29  <Luukland> or make the max loan 400000000000
 
16:28:32  <Luukland> Whatever you like :)
 
16:28:47  <Goulp> maxloan : config setting...
 
16:29:06  <Luukland> still max is defined in source
 
16:29:16  <Luukland> since 80000000 will be capped :)
 
16:33:57  <IceGuest_75[A]> should it be in economy.cpp ?
 
16:41:41  <IceGuest_75[A]> _economy.max_loan = (_settings_game.difficulty.max_loan * _economy.inflation_prices >> 16) / 50000 * 50000;
 
16:43:30  <Luukland> now make it 2Million
 
16:43:56  <Goulp> bitshift to right 16 pos
 
16:43:56  <Luukland> Hmmmm looks like bit steps to me
 
16:44:28  <IceGuest_75[A]> I'll just mess with the numbers see what happens
 
16:46:02  <Luukland> its easy, loan goes from 100K to 500K
 
16:46:44  <IceGuest_75[A]> _economy.max_loan = (_settings_game.difficulty.max_loan * _economy.inflation_prices >> 16) / 50000 * 50000;
 
16:46:54  <IceGuest_75[A]> What's the use of   /  50000 * 50000
 
16:46:58  <IceGuest_75[A]> It's the same thing without it
 
16:47:25  <IceGuest_75[A]> I did nothing happened
 
16:48:48  <IceGuest_75[A]> I don't think it's that
 
16:49:52  <IceGuest_75[A]> I mean i changed it to _economy.max_loan = (_settings_game.difficulty.max_loan >> 10) ;
 
16:49:56  <IceGuest_75[A]> SOmething should have happened
 
16:50:02  <IceGuest_75[A]> But the maximum amount is still 500k
 
16:50:44  <Xaroth> IceGuest_75[A]: it's for rounding
 
16:50:57  <Xaroth> it means that it'll be rounded to the nearest 50000
 
16:52:21  <Xaroth> and the fact it's >> 16 doesn't mean there's 16 steps :P
 
16:53:25  <Xaroth> a small hint, set your max loan difficulty setting to max, quit, open config, check max_loan config entry
 
16:53:34  <Xaroth> set it to minimum, quit, check max_loan config entry
 
16:54:14  <Xaroth> inflation adjustment comes with time played, as you'll also notice that your effective max loan changes while playing
 
16:55:46  <IceGuest_75[A]> Xaroth you are reffering the one in My Documents?
 
16:56:08  <Xaroth> the one that's being saved to, dependant on your environment and what args you're giving it :)
 
16:56:16  <Xaroth> but most commonly, for windows users, the one in my documents
 
16:56:24  <IceGuest_75[A]> I'm trying to make it possible in the game to increase the limit to 1 mil pounds
 
16:56:42  <IceGuest_75[A]> Or is the limit stated in the config as well? :D
 
16:56:45  <Xaroth> er, then check the limitations on _settings_game.difficulty.max_loan?
 
16:56:57  <IceGuest_75[A]> That's what i'm trying to find out
 
16:57:11  <Xaroth> then don't check where it's being applied, check where it's being validated and/or loaded :)
 
16:57:47  <Xaroth> the game will force it to be within certain bounds, change those bounds and yer pretty much done.. maybe some tweaking of the difficulty menu to allow for bigger ranges (if that even applies)
 
16:57:53  <Xaroth> time for me to go out for dinner

17:28:47  <Eddi|zuHause> ever tried the wiki formatting help??
 
17:29:04  <Luukland> Yeah, but it broke on ours
 
17:29:29  <Luukland> there should be a normal img button in the edit box
 
17:29:32  <Luukland> but someone broke it
 
17:31:11  <Eddi|zuHause> then make a bug report?
 
17:35:20  <frosch123> who is frederic ii ?
 
17:35:34  <Eddi|zuHause> frosch123: king of prussia
 
17:36:25  <frosch123> which century? 18, 19?
 
17:37:26  <Eddi|zuHause> one of the most influental persons of that time... his actions still have effect in modern germany (e.g. code of law, or the widespread use of potatos)
 
17:39:01  <Eddi|zuHause> he also let the hugenottes settle in prussia, and as a humanistic leader spread the idea of freedom of religion
 
17:39:11  <Prof_Frink> King of the potato people!
 
17:40:06  <Eddi|zuHause> his reforms are also responsible that there was no revolution in prussia similar to the one in france
 
17:40:42  <Eddi|zuHause> and in his fights with the french he helped england win their fights with the french over the new world
 
17:41:45  <Eddi|zuHause> [but the expensive war and the resulting taxation was one of the major reasons for the american declaration of independence]
 
17:42:09  <frosch123> now you quote wiki, right?
 
17:42:22  <Eddi|zuHause> no, why would i?
 
17:42:34  <Rubidium> frosch123: wiki quoted him!

19:47:18  <IceGuest_75[A]> static const int LOAN_INTERVAL = 10000;
 
19:48:24  <frosch123> you know ctrl-click ?
 
19:48:44  <frosch123> ctrl+click on "borrow"
 
19:49:03  <IceGuest_75[A]> It maxes the loan ?
 
19:51:34  <IceGuest_75[A]> So i'm thinking now to modify so when a client uses /hello on the server the console would print "Hello World"
 
19:51:39  <IceGuest_75[A]> Can anyone teach me how ?
 
19:55:48  <Luukland> well you would need some coding experience for that
 
19:56:36  <IceGuest_75[A]> So i believe the game doesn't have a method to read what clients write in chat
 
19:58:05  <Rubidium> nope, what a client's user writes magically appears, without interaction of the game, on the screen of all the clients in the same game
 
20:01:15  <IceGuest_75[A]> Rubidium so what should i look for to find the code that prints out what clients write ?
 
20:04:34  <Luukland> Better not ask Ruby those thing
 
20:04:41  <Luukland> He has better things to do
 
20:06:26  <andythenorth> anything interesting happening?
 
20:12:35  <frosch123> in china a bag of rice just turned over

20:26:41  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: rubidium * r17984 /trunk/src/ (widget.cpp widget_type.h): -Codechange: make it possible to use MakeNWidgets using a custom container widget.
 
20:28:29  <andythenorth> Pikka: I can't believe p1jk won't go past 1960
 
20:28:36  <andythenorth> would you reconsider?
 
20:29:28  <frosch123> sounds interesting, i always considered the game boring after the 50's
 
20:31:21  <andythenorth> so why aren't my vehicles going for servicing?  this baffles me
 
20:31:55  <andythenorth> it's 1924.  I'm looking at a road vehicle with 30 day servicing that last serviced in 1909
 
20:32:03  <andythenorth> it's driving past a depot
 
20:32:21  <andythenorth> this is r17858, but this problem's been kicking around for ages.
 
20:32:27  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: rubidium * r17985 /trunk/src/toolbar_gui.cpp: -Codechange: make the toolbar container support non-resizable widgets and subclassing of itself.
 
20:34:55  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: rubidium * r17986 /trunk/src/toolbar_gui.cpp: -Codechange: make the scenario 'main' toolbar nested. Also make it implement the 'switch' toolbar feature when it gets really small.

22:53:33  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: rubidium * r17987 /branches/0.7/src/ (13 files in 5 dirs): (log message trimmed)
 
22:53:33  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: [0.7] -Backport from trunk:
 
22:53:33  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: [NewGRF] 'subtract-in' is also signed for production callback version 0 (r17857)
 
22:53:33  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: [NewGRF] _date_fract runs from 0 to 73 since r2041. Variable 0x09 should not (r17824)
 
22:53:33  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: Do not fail hard when no soundcard could be detected; just fall back on the null-driver [FS#3268] (r17788)
 
22:53:34  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: CJK languages do not have spaces, so for adding newlines (multi line strings) we need to (properly) handle the case when there are no spaces instead of truncating the string [FS#3264] (r17772)
 
22:53:36  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: Powernaut Helicopter got wrong 'load amount' (r17758)
 
22:59:06  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: rubidium * r17988 /branches/0.7/ (7 files in 3 dirs):
 
22:59:06  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: [0.7] -Backport from trunk:
 
22:59:06  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Feature: Port OpenTTD to GNU/Hurd
 
22:59:06  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: When you start giving money (input window for amount), then get moved to spectators and you click 'Ok' a crash would occur (r17953)
 
22:59:06  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: Crash when closing NewGRF parameter window with no NewGRF selected [FS#3291] (r17922)
 
22:59:08  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: Uninitialised values in some paths of loading TTO savegames [FS#3288] (r17908)
 
22:59:10  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: Make the plane speed setting unchangeable in network games because it can be read by NewGRFs on game load and thus if it changes cause desyncs (r17902)
 
23:02:04  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: rubidium * r17989 /branches/0.7/src/screenshot.cpp:
 
23:02:04  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: [0.7] -Backport from trunk:
 
23:02:04  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: Use 24bpp BMP format instead of 32bpp for screenshots. Saves space and is supported by more image viewers (r17943)
 
23:02:04  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: Close BMP file when making screenshot fails (r17941)
 
23:02:04  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: Deadlock when trying to create screenshot with too long name (including path) (r17936)
 
23:02:06  <CIA-4> OpenTTD: - Fix: 32bpp BMP screenshots were in wrong colours on big endian machines and broken when screen width was not a multiple of 4 (r17910, r17909)
