IRC logs for #openttd on OFTC at 2010-02-04
⏴ go to previous day
00:03:30 <ccfreak2k> I was told that Vector is distinct from vector.
00:03:40 <ccfreak2k> Now I have to solve the mystery of the missing datatype.
00:06:24 <Rubidium> STL is all lowercase, so Vector isn't in there
00:06:25 <Faux> This channel is like ##c++, but scarier.
00:21:17 <Shapeshifter> how can I prevent this from happening?
00:21:44 <Shapeshifter> seems like there was a traffic jam at the lights
00:22:22 <Shapeshifter> mh. and how can I clean up the mess?
00:22:30 <Shapeshifter> stuff just sits around now.
00:23:01 <Shapeshifter> but I'm worried that the train will come by again and crash into things again
00:25:15 <PeterT> Build a temporary bridge to the right of the road
00:25:21 <PeterT> and redirect traffic to there
00:25:36 <Nite_Owl> Need to feed - later all
00:26:43 <ccfreak2k> Wouldn't a PBS work well there?
00:26:53 <Eddi|zuHause> double rails are a real death trap for road vehicles
00:27:02 <Eddi|zuHause> PBS even increases that effect
00:27:27 <ccfreak2k> Shouldn't cars check to see if the tile ahead of them is allocated?
00:27:50 <ccfreak2k> It won't solve all the problems, but at least a few.
00:28:09 <Eddi|zuHause> someone attempted to make a patch like that
00:28:16 <SmatZ> it would cause jams, too
00:28:29 <Eddi|zuHause> but that doesn't consider (longer) articulated vehicles
00:28:45 <Eddi|zuHause> i don't know if he got anywhere
00:29:01 <Rubidium> and it won't consider crossing - road+ - crossing with a traffic jam
00:29:43 <Eddi|zuHause> PeterT: no, other patch
00:29:57 <thingwath> Is there some pathfinder setting to make road vehicles avoid crossings at any cost?
00:30:18 <Eddi|zuHause> PeterT: someone tried to make vehicles check if they would get stuck on the rail
00:30:31 <PeterT> How did that work out?
00:30:54 <Eddi|zuHause> you seriously need to work on your reading comprehension
00:31:16 <Rubidium> thingwath: not "at any cost", but yes there is (at least for YAPF)
00:31:29 *** lobstar has joined #openttd
00:31:44 <Rubidium> and with that I mean that if a level crossing is the only option it will take it
00:31:59 <thingwath> That's exactly what I hoped for :)
00:32:03 <Rubidium> or if the detour is ridiciously long, i.e twice around the map or so
00:32:23 <ccfreak2k> "I could die...but the other route takes soooo long..."
00:33:23 *** Eddi|zuHause has joined #openttd
00:35:17 <ccfreak2k> Depending on the memory and software requrements, it may be theoretically possible to run openttd on the gamecube.
00:36:19 <Rubidium> I see no reason why it wouldn't work
00:36:49 <SmatZ> it is able to run linux
00:36:59 <SmatZ> so there is some crosscompiler for it
00:37:55 <Eddi|zuHause> except for huge maps
00:37:58 <ccfreak2k> Well, SDL has been ported to devkitppc, so removing any of the OS-specific bits should make it work.
00:38:10 <ccfreak2k> Then it just has to run in full-screen all the time.
00:38:28 <Rubidium> SmatZ: but it 'works' on the NDS which has 4 MB of RAM and a 67 MHz CPU
00:38:36 <ccfreak2k> I'd also have to adapt it to controller control.
00:38:56 <Rubidium> a Gamecube has a whopping 486 MHz CPU and almost eleven times as much memory
00:39:15 <ccfreak2k> Rubidium, PPC even, so it's probably closer to a 600MHz Intel chip.
00:39:27 <Rubidium> ccfreak2k: NDS is ARM
00:39:51 <Rubidium> but comparing to Intel is totally stupid
00:40:24 <CIA-1> OpenTTD: smatz * r19000 /trunk/src/fileio.cpp: -Cleanup: remove redundant check
00:41:29 <Rubidium> (or you want to have a factor 2 difference; netburst's IPC vs core's IPC
00:41:31 <ccfreak2k> The painful part is autotools. ./configure will fail when trying to look for sdl-config.
00:41:53 <SmatZ> ccfreak2k: OTTD doesn't use any auto*
00:41:55 <Rubidium> ./configure --with-sdl=/path/to/sdl-conig
00:42:04 <ccfreak2k> There is no sdl-config.
00:42:16 <ccfreak2k> It's just headers + static lib.
00:42:31 <Rubidium> then write a script that fakes sdl-config
00:42:37 <Rubidium> that shouldn't be that hard
00:42:44 <ccfreak2k> SmatZ, I really should just shut up and look at the source package then.
00:44:54 <SmatZ> ccfreak2k: hack config.lib ;)
00:44:54 <SmatZ> or create your own sdl-config
00:44:54 <SmatZ> returning what OTTD expects :-p
00:44:54 <SmatZ> easy with a shell script...
00:46:33 <SmatZ> ccfreak2k: no need to be that expressive ;)
00:48:44 <devilsadvocate> is ttrs a patch in openttd or should i install ttrs3 assuming i want it? the screenshots look a lot like my buildings...
00:48:45 <SmatZ> I guess one has to know the software used to create it
00:49:14 <devilsadvocate> my as in the ones i see in my game
00:49:30 <ccfreak2k> SmatZ, I made a hard drive in Garry's Mod.
00:49:34 <ccfreak2k> And that's it there.
00:49:48 <SmatZ> devilsadvocate: just download ttrs newgrf via the "Content download" system
00:50:00 <Eddi|zuHause> devilsadvocate: check the "NewGRF Settings" window
00:50:24 <devilsadvocate> SmatZ, i dont see ttrs in the content download list. thats why im not sure if i should or not
00:50:43 <Eddi|zuHause> not all grfs are in the content downloader
00:51:00 *** KenjiE20|LT has joined #openttd
00:51:48 <ccfreak2k> SmatZ, the idea is that the laser intersects with the disc at some point, and the code figures out where on the prop the laser hit and reads from or writes to that part of a giant table.
00:53:57 <SmatZ> ccfreak2k: reading about Garry's Mod makes me want to (re)play half-life (2)
00:59:02 *** lobstar has joined #openttd
00:59:44 <SmatZ> ccfreak2k: looks interesting :) reminds me of "OTTD digital counters" :)
01:00:25 <Eoin> The nightly database backup is currently running
01:01:06 <ccfreak2k> Is there any particular reason why the forum can't be read-only during backup time, other than the fact that a 10 minute window might not even be worth it?
01:01:51 <SmatZ> but I guess this is easier solution than patching phpbb and zillion places
01:01:53 <Eoin> as it would backup slower
01:02:00 <Eoin> people are still reading
01:05:30 <Rubidium> Eoin: reading the forum does database modifications too, e.g. the read count and such
01:06:01 <Eoin> so basically easier to just not let anyone read
01:10:17 <SmatZ> don't (all) databases allow on-line backup?
01:10:17 <Eddi|zuHause> only if they're transactional
01:10:37 <Rubidium> and getting a proper backup of a database that is being modified is far from trivial
01:10:46 <SmatZ> I have no clue what database background is used at tt-forums
01:15:30 <Eoin> someone made an OpenTTD ALU
01:15:37 <Eddi|zuHause> yay... a court decided that legal documents sent by email and blocked by a spamfilter is legally considered "delivered"
01:16:32 <Eddi|zuHause> oh the logic gates... those were fun times
01:16:53 <Eoin> self regulating networks
01:16:59 <SmatZ> [02:15:33] <Eddi|zuHause> yay... a court decided that legal documents sent by email and blocked by a spamfilter is legally considered "delivered" <== we can expect similiar case here as well
01:17:23 <ccfreak2k> Eoin, and he mowed down two towns to make it.
01:17:54 <SmatZ> though... one has to login often enough to his "data storage" to see new messages
01:19:52 <Eddi|zuHause> ccfreak2k: it's totally realistic to destroy entire towns/villages
01:20:23 <Eoin> if people can do that via trains
01:20:28 <Eoin> cant we get it actually IN the game
01:20:32 <Eddi|zuHause> for example for open coal mines or hydro-power
01:21:11 <ccfreak2k> Or to create a digital logic circuit?
01:21:27 <Eoin> im sure china will one day
01:22:21 <Eddi|zuHause> a logic circuit the size of a large city...
01:23:23 <SmatZ> Eddi|zuHause: it wasn't unrealistic ~75 years ago
01:23:50 <Eddi|zuHause> SmatZ: a large warehouse, maybe
01:25:34 <Eddi|zuHause> "Leibnitz discovered the binary system during a conversation with his mother"
01:25:46 <Eddi|zuHause> "yes... no... no... yes... no..."
01:26:48 <SmatZ> "ENIAC contained 17,468 vacuum tubes, 7,200 crystal diodes, 1,500 relays, 70,000 resistors, 10,000 capacitors and around 5 million hand-soldered joints."
01:26:57 <SmatZ> I would expect far less
01:27:17 <PeterT> off to go reinstall Ubuntu
01:27:37 <SmatZ> given 4004 consists of 2300 transistors
01:27:39 <Eddi|zuHause> Ubuntu really is the new windows...
01:27:46 <Eddi|zuHause> now it even needs reinstalls...
01:28:23 <Eddi|zuHause> SmatZ: the transistor was a huge technology jump
01:28:35 <SmatZ> "The short ton is a unit of weight equal to 2,000 pounds (907.18474 kg).[1] In the United States it is often called simply ton[1] without distinguishing it from the metric ton (tonne, 1,000 kilograms) or the long ton (2,240 pounds/1,016.0469088 kilograms); rather, the other two are specifically noted. There are, however, some U.S. applications for which unspecified tons normally means long tons (for example, Navy ships)[2] or metric tons (world grain
01:29:16 <SmatZ> Eddi|zuHause: yeah, but how is transistor different from vacuum tubes?
01:30:24 <Eddi|zuHause> i'm not exactly sure how a vacuum tube works
01:31:03 <ccfreak2k> Vacuum tubes are also much larger.
01:31:11 <Eddi|zuHause> plus, back then they might not have had as universal instruction sets
01:31:34 <Eddi|zuHause> or ENIAC had more capabilities than a 4004
01:31:47 <ccfreak2k> I'm guessing the latter.
01:31:54 <Eddi|zuHause> or did you mean a 4040?
01:31:58 <ccfreak2k> ENIAC was also application-specific.
01:32:11 <ccfreak2k> Unlike the 4004, which was more than likely general-purpose.
01:33:16 *** Eddi|zuHause has joined #openttd
01:33:25 <SmatZ> well, both are turing-complete :)
01:33:36 <SmatZ> but yes, I understand your arguments
01:34:15 <SmatZ> modern CPUs are also turing-complete, and have tens of thousands transistors
01:34:32 <thingwath> 4004 isn't a complete computer, while ENIAC was at least supposed to be one.
01:35:06 <SmatZ> right, it's incomparable :)
01:36:30 <Eddi|zuHause> yeah, you don't have memory or peripherial devices on the 4004
01:49:30 *** SirSquidness has joined #openttd
01:55:17 <ccfreak2k> sdl_sound looks like it compiles into a couple of different libs.
01:55:31 <ccfreak2k> Or it links them together into libSDL_sound.a.
01:59:17 <ccfreak2k> sdl-config appears to be just a shell script.
01:59:21 <ccfreak2k> That makes things easy.
02:00:50 <SmatZ> /usr/bin/sdl-config: POSIX shell script text executable

09:00:49 <ccfreak2k> Do any of you know who maintains the PSP code?
09:03:20 *** egladil has joined #openttd
09:06:51 <blathijs> ccfreak2k: Dunno, it's not listed in readme.txt
09:06:59 <ccfreak2k> Also, I got ./configure to work with only adding GC as an "os".
09:07:26 <TrueBrain> PSP is not official supported blathijs, so that is most likely why ;)
09:07:56 <blathijs> TrueBrain: Hmm, there is a target defined for it in configure IIRC
09:08:04 <TrueBrain> I did some ground work for it
09:08:13 <blathijs> and/or I saw references to it in trunk
09:08:13 <ccfreak2k> There's also at least a few #if defined PSP.
09:08:16 <TrueBrain> but it never really got anywhere :)
09:08:24 <TrueBrain> (as I don't own a PSP :p)
09:08:40 <blathijs> Hmm, that's a lousy way to port an app :-P
09:08:51 <TrueBrain> yup .. the person who was doing that, never gave any feedback ..
09:09:16 <ccfreak2k> I'm the lucky owner of a fully-modded gamecube, so I can actually write and test.
09:09:19 <dih> i assume ccfreak2k has a psp
09:09:25 <ccfreak2k> I don't have a PSP.
09:09:32 <ccfreak2k> But I figured its code would be a good starting point.
09:09:57 <TrueBrain> there is enough custom code to get you on the way for any port :)
09:10:22 <ccfreak2k> Well, the GC would be an "embedded" target, as everything is statically-linked, etc.
09:10:23 <roboboy> ccfreak2k: can a normal gamecube play homebrew or does it need a chip?
09:10:42 <TrueBrain> ccfreak2k: static linking is done for Windows too :p
09:10:43 <ccfreak2k> roboboy, it can play homebrew without one, but you need to coerce the gamecube into getting it to run first.
09:11:05 <ccfreak2k> Which uh...I guess would require some kind of chip actually.
09:11:09 <TrueBrain> but if there is libSDL for the GC, the rest should be easy :)
09:11:10 <ccfreak2k> Or wait, it doesn't.
09:11:27 <roboboy> ok as I am not a fan of chipping consoles
09:11:27 <ccfreak2k> One trick is to use a mile-long list of Pro Action Replay codes to boot the SD loader code.
09:11:43 <ccfreak2k> So if you have a Pro Action Replay and a SD card adapter, you're set.
09:11:50 <roboboy> unless you can somehow exploit code in a game
09:12:09 <ccfreak2k> TrueBrain, someone did port libSDL and friends to Wii, and I took the liberty of backporting them to gamecube, which is why I have my eyes set on openttd.
09:12:25 <TrueBrain> then a C compiler should do the rest
09:12:26 <ccfreak2k> roboboy, yes, the infamous "Twilight Hack" did that on the Wii.
09:13:09 <ccfreak2k> I wasn't averse to chipping my gamecube, though. It makes homebrew and the like -so- much easier.
09:14:25 <ccfreak2k> If I can get my hands on a USB Gecko, I can even use gdb to debug programs on it.
09:14:45 <peter1138> "who uses the user 'backup'"
09:14:52 <peter1138> well, let's see, i wonder...
09:16:14 <roboboy> I think ive read about that
09:16:14 <roboboy> I geuse since I have a wii it wouldn't be too bad
09:16:56 <ccfreak2k> The Wii is more comprehensive with the hacks, mostly because A) Nintendo stepped up security on it and B) it's an arms race since the Wii doesn't have indelible firmware.
09:17:56 <ccfreak2k> On the GC, you just have to use PAR codes to get it to start running what you want.
09:18:12 *** lobstah has joined #openttd
09:19:05 <blathijs> What's Pro Action Replay?
09:19:40 <ccfreak2k> The proper name for what used to be GameShark.
09:20:47 <blathijs> Is it like the Game Genie?
09:21:05 <ccfreak2k> It doesn't use the same code format, but the idea is the same.
09:21:38 <blathijs> And it has a custom mode to read and write arbitrary memory addresses or something?
09:22:13 <ccfreak2k> No, that's its primary feature.
09:22:24 <ccfreak2k> Action Replays (without Pro) can only exchange game saves.
09:22:54 <blathijs> Feels a bit like programming a game on a C64 then, I bet :-)
09:22:54 <ccfreak2k> It doesn't read addresses, though. Only writes.
09:23:15 <ccfreak2k> Before the game starts, you pick addresses and what values you want to have. When the game starts, the "trainer" runs in the background and makes sure it keeps those values.
09:23:25 *** bartaway is now known as bartavelle
09:23:31 <ccfreak2k> Some similar tricks were used on Atari for example, for different purposes.
09:26:27 *** [alt]buster has joined #openttd
09:26:30 *** [alt]buster is now known as [com]buster
09:29:31 <ccfreak2k> Am I a bad person for hacking up the makefile instead of ./configure?
09:30:38 <TrueBrain> if you want others to use your code: yes
09:30:44 <TrueBrain> as Makefile is overwritten every time you run ./configure :)
09:30:57 <ccfreak2k> It seems like configure is trying to outsmart me.
09:31:11 <ccfreak2k> It thinks its building to a win32 target.
09:31:30 <TrueBrain> there is a configure switch to overrule that
09:33:30 <TrueBrain> ./configure --help :)
09:33:58 <TrueBrain> blathijs: so you are wrong ;)
09:34:01 <ccfreak2k> The only two in --help I can see are host and os, both of which are set to distinctly non-win32 targets (powerpc-eabi and UNIX repsectively).
09:34:51 <TrueBrain> blathijs: build is always the target you are building ON, and host is always the target you are building FOR :)
09:35:15 <blathijs> Eh? Isn't that the other way around?
09:35:29 <TrueBrain> --build=BUILD configure for building on BUILD [guessed]
09:35:30 <TrueBrain> --host=HOST cross-compile to build programs to run
09:35:49 <TrueBrain> you have your build machine, and you have your host machine .. first is where you build it on, latter is where it will run on
09:36:00 <blathijs> E.g, If I use my amd64 box to compile a program for arm, then --host=amd64 and --build=arm, right?
09:36:06 <TrueBrain> you also have the confusion host / target pair in some configures, there the host is your current system, and target where you build for
09:36:25 <blathijs> Yes, that's the common setup
09:36:31 <TrueBrain> no, that is the uncommon :p
09:37:02 <TrueBrain> but to answer your former question: no: --build=amd64, --host=arm
09:37:41 <blathijs> Isn't the idea of --host to say "If you need to compile a program that needs to be run during compilation (e.g., strgen), use a compiler for this platform"
09:37:45 <TrueBrain> blathijs: Gentoo had a lot of trouble with both systems. It turned out that build/host is most used (and makes most sense), and host/target is lesser used
09:37:57 <TrueBrain> blathijs: that is your BUILD machine
09:38:01 <TrueBrain> on which you are building
09:38:10 <TrueBrain> and that is exactly the confusion :) build/host vs host/target
09:38:13 <ccfreak2k> Anyway, my issue is that CONFIGURE_FILES for example is using win32 paths, whereas devkitpro uses UNIX paths and has a very particular setup.
09:38:47 <blathijs> TrueBrain: Bah, you are right. I'm confusing host/target.
09:39:03 <TrueBrain> blathijs: it is very normal to confuse both .. who ever invented host/target should be shot :)
09:39:07 <TrueBrain> it is very ambigious :)
09:39:13 <blathijs> Though I think host/target makes more sense (even better would have been build/target, but that's never used I guess)
09:39:29 <TrueBrain> yes, build/target would have made the most sense :)
09:39:44 <TrueBrain> either way, GNU for a long time promoted host/target, but now only talks about build/host
09:40:06 <ccfreak2k> Doesn't build/host/target also have to do with the so-called Canadian cross?
09:40:36 <TrueBrain> ccfreak2k: the fact you can use google, doesn't make you wise ;)
09:40:53 <ccfreak2k> So help channels don't want me to be wise?
09:41:02 <TrueBrain> Canadian Cross is a fancy way of saying cross-compiling
09:41:27 <ccfreak2k> Don't you mean "building a compiler thrice to move it from one arch to another"?
09:41:28 <TrueBrain> either way, for a few years, 'canadian cross' only talks about build/host :)
09:42:02 *** lobstar has joined #openttd
09:42:57 <TrueBrain> either way: confusing as hell :)
09:43:29 <ccfreak2k> I don't disagree ther.e
09:45:01 <ccfreak2k> Also, building apps for gc/wii involves and extra step: converting the elf into a dol.
09:45:18 <ccfreak2k> How exactly would I ./configure that in?
09:45:33 <TrueBrain> not, really :) As it is a bit insane ;)
09:45:45 <TrueBrain> but I guess a: --run-dol-at-the-end :p
09:45:52 <blathijs> That would probably require an addition to the makefile?
09:45:59 <TrueBrain> we have 'strip' and 'lipo' too as final actions, so :)
09:46:27 <TrueBrain> just don't forget you should never edit Makefile, but always Makefile.in or Makefile.src.in
09:46:44 <blathijs> And trigger that by the OS / build being GC?
09:46:58 <TrueBrain> OS=GC would make most sense :)
09:47:21 <ccfreak2k> Yep, made an entry for OS=GC already.
09:47:27 <ccfreak2k> Haven't done anything, though.
09:51:32 <TrueBrain> time to follow some classes ... ccfreak2k: 1 tip, don;t waste too much time on fixing it nicely, just first see/check if it works at all ;)
09:51:37 <ccfreak2k> Bleh, what's the makefile syntax for "if OS == GC"
09:51:49 <TrueBrain> there is enough around to figure that out :)
09:52:20 <TrueBrain> look for MINGW in Makefile.src.in, for example
09:55:09 <ccfreak2k> The MINGW path fix is one thing I'll probably want.
09:57:25 *** Eddi|zuHause has joined #openttd
10:06:36 <ccfreak2k> Is Makefile.src.in only run when Makefile is?
10:10:32 <blathijs> ccfreak2k: configure generates Makefile from Makefile.in and Makefile.src from Makefile.src.in
10:10:41 <blathijs> And Makefile includes Makefile.src
10:11:04 *** [alt]buster has joined #openttd
10:11:17 <ccfreak2k> Right, but the MINGW thing isn't happening at configure, so I want to know if it actually happens when make is run.
10:12:43 <Rubidium> Makefile.src.in ends up in objs/[release|debug]/ or even objs/[target]/[release|debug] for OSX universal binaries
10:13:31 *** [alt]buster is now known as [com]buster
10:13:33 <Rubidium> and gets 'called' (as in $MAKE -C objs/../Makefile) instead of included

10:14:32 <blathijs> Rubidium: Ah, thanks for the correction :-)
10:17:57 <ccfreak2k> I think I'm starting to get it now.

14:25:39 <__ln__> i have not tested the #1140 patch, but at least it matches my own conclusion that the fix doesn't go into an OSX-specific file but a common one.
14:25:44 *** ChanServ sets mode: +v glx_
14:26:20 <Rubidium> __ln__: still, the fix is for code that is ONLY used for the Mac port

14:37:59 <TrueBrain> but if the commits message gets longer than the commit ...
14:40:13 <Rubidium> anyhow, r19003 is just plain stupid
14:41:18 <Rubidium> it's like: some people of the age 18-25 get drunk before driving, we don't know which beforehand, so just ban all of those from driving
14:41:34 <Rubidium> but I guess it's common in society
14:42:02 <Rubidium> it's always the few trouble makers that screw the fun for the rest
14:43:29 <__ln__> does this FS#2782 (hopelessly outdated) bug track all OSX-tagged bugs automatically, or is it done manually?
14:44:12 <Rubidium> e.g. how many money is wasted on useless 'anti-terrorism' stuff? The only thing the 'anti-terrorism' stuff does is feeding the fear
14:46:13 *** valhallasw has joined #openttd
14:46:26 <__ln__> Rubidium: ok; i'd like to point out that #3447 (SDL Port is unuseable) does not really belong to that list then, as the Mac port has been independent of SDL for years. and requires extra effort to compile with SDL.
14:47:47 <Rubidium> __ln__: it's there to prevent people from suggesting we use SDL instead of cocoa et al over and over again
14:47:57 <Eddi|zuHause> but not being able to use SDL is one of the reasons why the OSX port needs so much special attention
14:49:30 <__ln__> Rubidium: i see. and i agree the #3447 as such is a valid bug report.
14:55:07 <Rubidium> hmm, I would have expected that there were people clicking on the 3447 bug report in 2782, but none in the last two days (besides myself to test whether my grep was correct)
14:55:35 <Rubidium> then why have they stopped suggesting to use SDL all of the sudden that 3447 was added as dependency for 2782?
14:57:03 *** Coco-Banana-Man has joined #openttd
14:58:13 <planetmaker> <Rubidium> anyhow, r19003 is just plain stupid <-- why... do you commit it then?
14:59:23 <Eddi|zuHause> i read somewhere that the r19003 effect depends on the graphics driver
14:59:47 <Eddi|zuHause> older graphics drivers work, while newer ones don't
15:00:11 <Rubidium> planetmaker: because apparantly OS X does not tell (reliably) whether 8bpp is supported or not
15:01:30 <Rubidium> and because the OS X community has definitely shown that they don't really care about a supported OpenTTD
15:02:27 <peter1138> they think "it compiles" is the same as "it is bug free"
15:02:42 <peter1138> (well, bug free may be a big strong :))
15:04:10 <peter1138> 14:37 <@Rubidium> yay for committing untested patches!
15:04:10 <peter1138> 14:37 <@Rubidium> and/or hacky workarounds

15:04:10 <peter1138> 14:37 <@Rubidium> and/or hacky workarounds
15:04:16 <peter1138> it's just like rigs of rods ;)
15:04:25 <peter1138> also, i have a stupid middle button problem :(
15:06:30 <Rubidium> peter1138: but is that for the officially supported part, or for some unsupported crappy development-wise OS?
15:07:06 <peter1138> generally the whole bit with ror, heh
15:07:25 <peter1138> "whole bit" does not compute. never mind.
15:09:37 <Rubidium> although I must say I've committed some *BSD related patches too without actually having tested it on a *BSD system. However, the proposed patches all seemed to be 'in line' with the manpages of the functions we were using.
15:09:49 <planetmaker> <Rubidium> and because the OS X community has definitely shown that they don't really care about a supported OpenTTD <-- honestly... it reads like "Let's see whether I can break it with a couple of patches provided by people who had a look for one or two days at the source and then call them idiots for trying"
15:10:25 <peter1138> planetmaker, no it's "apparently these work, but we can't tell"
15:10:39 <planetmaker> peter1138, exactly
15:11:07 <peter1138> no, that's different to what you wrote
15:11:34 <Rubidium> planetmaker: then what do you expect from us? Just plainly dropping OS X?
15:12:01 <Rubidium> and I haven't called them idiots
15:12:27 <Rubidium> the really idiotic solutions I've already rejected
15:12:58 <Rubidium> and r19003 shouldn't be needed, but heh... we just work around a bug in the OS X API
15:13:19 <Rubidium> (or Bjarni made a mess of his 'detect 8bpp' code)
15:13:31 <Rubidium> but I can't tell that
15:13:49 <Rubidium> and none of the people who looked at it said so
15:14:17 <Rubidium> and also SDL has similar problems, which might mean that it's a more generic issue than just OpenTTD's issue
15:14:37 <Rubidium> i.e. it tips the 'who-to-blame' scale towards blaming Apple
15:15:15 <Rubidium> (and with Apple I also mean the drivers needed for OS X, even when written by external parties)
15:15:55 * Rubidium wonders whether OS X has some sort of driver sanity test, like Microsoft or Linux has
15:16:27 <Rubidium> in case of MS the driver certification and in case of Linux the (many) reviews before it gets into the kernel
15:17:03 <glx> may explain why it works for some system and not for other :)

18:42:58 <TrueBrain> there is only one fixed address in the client
18:43:11 <TrueBrain> not generated or what ever
18:43:20 <Rubidium> if we change the url of binaries.openttd.org, then yes we need a new release. If any of the mirrors changes urls nothing whatsoever needs to be done client side
18:43:21 <TrueBrain> we can make the links what ever we like, no change on the client side will ever be required
18:43:29 <Ammler> so the master server does send the url?
18:43:39 <TrueBrain> the master server has nothing to do with this

18:48:04 <TrueBrain> 'removed old'? 'again'?
18:49:35 <Ammler> the directory with the old releases is empty now.
18:49:46 <TrueBrain> it always has been (or at least should have been)
18:49:58 <TrueBrain> for a small 12 hours they were synced, but that was removed shortly afterwards
18:50:07 <TrueBrain> (as old BaNaNaS files are not for public download)

18:50:53 <Ammler> then I hit those 12 hours last time I tried ;-)
18:51:17 <TrueBrain> I still take offense that you say 'again'. Like we remove it all the time, put it back to annoy you, and remove it again

19:32:03 *** Alberth has joined #openttd
19:38:55 <Shapeshifter> So, I keep getting offerings over shipping goods to some city (got around 1000 inhabitants), but if I want to build a lorry station, or click on the main train station (which is quite central), I don't see anything that accepts goods. if I do this, goods will just pile at the stations
19:39:51 <Shapeshifter> will they start accepting goods if I ship them?
19:41:30 <Shapeshifter> also, does it matter how near a station is to something in terms of how much of the total share of goods from that place it gets to be shipped?
19:41:52 <Alberth> open a station build window, select a station and move the station around over the city. If the window says it accepts goods, building at that place will accept goods
19:42:06 <Shapeshifter> I get the feeling that my train station, which is a bit further away, get's very little food from the plant, while some lorry stations nearby are overfilled with food.
19:42:18 <Shapeshifter> Alberth: I did exactly that, but there's no place that accepts goods
19:42:46 <Alberth> in that case, you cannot build a station that will accept goods :)
19:42:52 <Xaroth> make it happy, transport people to it
19:43:02 <Xaroth> it'll grow eventually, at which point you can transport goods to it
19:43:06 <Shapeshifter> yeah but why do I get offerings for subsidies for goods to that place, then?
19:43:34 <Shapeshifter> why would anyone subsidy something they don't need? is this an attempt to simulate real world governments? xD
19:43:39 <Belugas> cuase the system does not know you cannot
19:43:42 <Alberth> about distance: no it does not matter, only rating does
19:43:51 <Belugas> it sends the offering to all who wants to hear
19:43:53 <Shapeshifter> Alberth: okay thanks.
19:44:16 <Shapeshifter> Belugas: well it hasn't got something to do with _me_, but with the place they want the goods to be sent for subsidies
19:44:23 <Shapeshifter> but that place doesn't accept goods.
19:45:21 <Belugas> who knows, by the time you finish your lines, maybe it would?
19:45:44 <Alberth> especially if you inject some money/buildings into the city
19:46:29 <Alberth> but usually, I don't care much about subsidized transport :)
19:49:29 <Belugas> if it is granted, it's a bonus
19:49:41 <Belugas> don't run for it at all cost
19:49:50 <Belugas> and... remember... it's a gameuh
19:53:48 * Belugas is thinking of that guy who suggested in forums that small airports should not allow big planes to land, since.. it's not realistic
19:57:10 * Alberth considers adding vertical runways... it's not realistic
19:59:03 *** Bluelight has joined #openttd
19:59:26 *** PeterT_ has joined #openttd
19:59:35 <Shapeshifter> Nah, but this is broken. If I take a big train station to be built, and swipe it over the city, and two adjacent spots "goods" pop up in the list. obviously I can't build a train station directly above the city. But if I take a lorry station, and go to the same place, there's no "goods" to be found
19:59:37 <Eddi|zuHause> <Shapeshifter> why would anyone subsidy something they don't need? <-- that's entirely the point of subsidies... forcing to open a market where the natural ("free") market does not exist
19:59:57 <Shapeshifter> Eddi|zuHause: mh guess you're right.
20:00:17 <Shapeshifter> so I can't shipt the goods using feeders
20:00:32 <Shapeshifter> because no lorry station wants to accept goods :|
20:00:33 <Bluelight> What is a lorry station?
20:00:38 <Eddi|zuHause> you typically need 3 office buildings in a city to accept goods
20:00:57 <Shapeshifter> Eddi|zuHause: ah. I have them. but they're far apart.
20:01:02 <Shapeshifter> too far for a lorry station
20:01:10 <Eddi|zuHause> then build a bigger station
20:01:33 <Shapeshifter> I can't build a bigger lorry station
20:01:33 <Bluelight> Where are you playing?
20:01:36 <Shapeshifter> Bluelight: a truck station
20:01:45 <Eddi|zuHause> you can join two stations together
20:01:59 <Eddi|zuHause> they will cover all buildings inbetween them
20:02:05 <Shapeshifter> Eddi|zuHause: ohh
20:02:53 <Bluelight> Shapeshifter: where do you play? On what server..
20:03:35 <Shapeshifter> Eddi|zuHause: yay that worked.
20:03:39 <Shapeshifter> Bluelight: I play offline ;)
20:03:54 <Shapeshifter> I just started the other day
20:04:12 <Shapeshifter> Eddi|zuHause: I can't join existing stations?
20:04:16 <Bluelight> Cool! Hope you enjoy that game then.. :)
20:04:30 <Bluelight> It's fun on a non-competiotion server..
20:04:36 <Belugas> [14:57] * Alberth considers adding vertical runways... it's not realistic <-- Highway to Hell !!!!
20:05:22 <Bluelight> You don't have to be good to play online and have fun..
20:06:32 <Shapeshifter> Bluelight: I'm enyoing it ;)
20:07:17 <Bluelight> Well I'm about to play some on Luukland normal servwer I guess..
20:07:29 <planetmaker> servers or sewers? :D
20:08:14 <Bluelight> Nice to see you here planetmaker
20:08:54 <Bluelight> My stove smells burnt garlic butter..
20:09:17 <planetmaker> if not burnt too much, it'll be delicious :-)
20:10:45 <Eddi|zuHause> Shapeshifter: no, only new stations to an existing one
20:13:23 *** Wizzleby has joined #openttd
20:33:49 <TrueBrain> I official hate MediaWiki
20:34:05 <jonty-comp> so, use tikiwiki instead
20:34:26 <TrueBrain> is there a convertor?
20:35:01 <Rubidium> TrueBrain: I think you will be shot dead, very thoroughly dead, if you convert it to tikiwiki
20:35:05 <jonty-comp> n.b. that wasn't an official suggestion, if the openttd wiki changed to tikiwiki I think I might commit suicide
20:35:18 <aber> noooo, you killed kenny and broke mac compatibility. (Ihr ****eine).
20:35:25 <PeterT> TrueBrain: Why do you hate MediaWiki?
20:35:31 <TrueBrain> jonty-comp: really? Hmmmmm ........
20:35:47 <jonty-comp> wait, that wasn't an official statement either
20:35:51 <TrueBrain> PeterT: because it is a piece of crap! Using _ as \s, but not always, and it completely fucks up LDAP authentication
20:36:08 <jonty-comp> I would agree that mediawiki is a mildly annoying piece of crap
20:36:11 <TrueBrain> jonty-comp: nah, I like you too much ;)
20:36:18 <Rubidium> aber: *WE* broke Mac compatability?
20:36:20 <PeterT> TikiWiki looks very ugly
20:36:23 <jonty-comp> but on the open-source piece of crap scale, it's quite lot on the list
20:36:57 <TrueBrain> jonty-comp: yeah .. it is the best of the worst
20:38:05 <jonty-comp> I hear that phrase a lot in software :p
20:38:23 * jonty-comp tries to think of some software that is actually best of the best
20:39:56 *** thingwath has joined #openttd
20:40:02 <TrueBrain> jonty-comp: MSVC, as IDE
20:40:42 <jonty-comp> MSVC might fit I suppose
20:40:53 <Rubidium> aber: oh lol... so much for quality of the patches that Mac OS X users provide
20:41:04 <jonty-comp> but the rest of VS doesn't :p
20:41:20 <TrueBrain> jonty-comp: completely agree
20:41:24 <TrueBrain> that is why I added: as IDE :)
20:41:49 <jonty-comp> can you do Windows Forms in MSVC? I've never quite wanted to try
20:42:09 <jonty-comp> in fact, I shall do the leet thing and have a look right now
20:42:11 <TrueBrain> I don't have a Windows installation :p
20:42:18 <Rubidium> aber: got no idea how to fix that compile error
20:42:21 <jonty-comp> except I have the 2010 beta, which is probably different
20:42:48 <Rubidium> well, I've got an idea but that entails buying a Mac, which I refuse to do
20:43:14 <jonty-comp> aha, it does do Windows Forms
20:43:18 <jonty-comp> it has gone down in my estimation
20:43:31 <Rubidium> jonty-comp: good luck with MSVC 2010 compiling OpenTTD ;)
20:43:47 <jonty-comp> I use msys for all that anyway!
20:44:08 * Shapeshifter is waiting for beta4 to hit the repo.
20:44:20 <Rubidium> Shapeshifter: what repo?
20:44:29 <Shapeshifter> Rubidium: archlinux ;) they're usually very fast
20:45:09 <Shapeshifter> mh. or I could just install from svn.
20:46:12 *** Brianetta has joined #openttd
20:46:23 <welshdragon> Shapeshifter: prod Sacro
20:46:29 <welshdragon> he builds for Arch
20:46:33 *** Dreamxtreme has joined #openttd
20:47:06 <jonty-comp> welshdragon: you do realise that in saying "prod Sacro", you've probably already prodded him yourself
20:47:32 <Shapeshifter> welshdragon: thanks. I wrote to him in #archlinux on freenode.
20:47:47 <welshdragon> Shapeshifter: he's a lazy 'tard
20:47:54 <welshdragon> and needs prodding a few times
20:48:01 <Shapeshifter> mh. but svn is fine I guess.
20:48:01 <welshdragon> (he is also gar IRL)
20:49:51 <Shapeshifter> because I really think there's a bug in this version I have here, where everytime a new office building gets built, it switches "no longer accepts goods".
20:50:07 <Shapeshifter> driving me nuts. everytime, I have to build a new lorry station and send trucks there
20:50:10 <jonty-comp> welshdragon: how discriminatory
20:50:33 <welshdragon> jonty-comp: 's true though
20:50:38 <Alberth> buildings don't accept/produce cargo when they are being constructed
20:50:50 <welshdragon> did you not see how camp he was at the York meet?
20:50:55 * jonty-comp makes fun of welshdragon being welsh
20:51:02 <jonty-comp> I saw how welsh you were at the meet!
20:51:30 <welshdragon> Born_Acorn is more Welsh than me though!
20:51:42 <Shapeshifter> Alberth: no, but everytime one gets built, the existing lorry station which is accepting goods switches goods off
20:51:49 <Shapeshifter> I build a new one, and it's fine again
20:52:59 <Sacro> can someone update the topic
20:53:08 <Sacro> i've been informed that beta4 is out
21:04:26 <Rubidium> Sacro: I reckon someone can update the topic
21:05:18 <Sacro> Rubidium: do it then :P
21:06:30 <Alberth> the problem is that someone is never here when you need him
21:07:32 <Rubidium> if only DorpsGek could automatically update the topic
21:07:49 <welshdragon> this is why a supybot wins
21:08:08 <Alberth> we still need someone to teach it :p
21:08:36 <blathijs> Rubidium: Ah, beta4 is already out? I thought you meant packaging beta4 when it got out, but you mean ASAP :-)
21:09:27 <TrueBrain> Rubidium: it could, if you program it :p
21:09:40 <TrueBrain> welshdragon: well, I don't see how it does ...
21:09:50 <Rubidium> blathijs: when I asked/suggested it to you beta4 wasn't released yet
21:09:51 <CIA-1> OpenTTD: terkhen * r19010 /trunk/src/station_cmd.cpp: -Codechange: Remove a now unneeded check at CmdBuildRailStation.
21:11:29 <Rubidium> TrueBrain: the bot is already fragile enough :)
21:11:35 <TrueBrain> Rubidium: very true :)

21:15:13 <Shapeshifter> can I copy over the configs from beta3 to beta4 overwriting everything?
21:15:37 <Shapeshifter> (I have both versions installed with different config folders in ~)
21:16:21 <TrueBrain> BaNaNaS filenames have changed; although it should not download the same file twice, just know the syntax has changed slightly :)
21:16:23 <Rubidium> blathijs: though I guess doing 0.7.5-2 first before 1.0.0-beta4 (in exp) might be better
21:17:47 *** th1ngwath has joined #openttd
21:18:07 <blathijs> Rubidium: Yeah, I wanna upload 0.7.5-2 this week (I've asked jordi for a review. he's back from vacation)
21:19:24 *** frosch123 has joined #openttd
21:25:10 *** Polygon has joined #openttd
21:26:31 <andythenorth> out of interest, who maintains bananas?
21:26:57 <TrueBrain> (it is self maintaining)
21:27:10 <andythenorth> ace, I wish my code was self maintaining :P
21:27:19 <andythenorth> who maintains the code for BaNaNaS?
21:28:23 <TrueBrain> and seen by the commit log, it is mostly me or Rubidium who touches the code
21:28:40 <andythenorth> now I actually have to use the mouse and go look somewhere in the repo I have checked out :o
21:29:18 <planetmaker> andythenorth: with a 'usual' openttd checkout you don't checkout the webpage
21:29:42 <andythenorth> I did something unusual....unintentionally mind
21:32:10 *** thingwath has joined #openttd
21:33:14 <andythenorth> hmmm....django's kind of pleasantly self-explanatory
21:36:33 <andythenorth> TrueBrain: I'm guessing there's a sql query for number of downloads of a BaNaNaS item? I can't find it in the repo?
21:36:50 <TrueBrain> andythenorth: we use Django
21:36:55 <TrueBrain> we don't do queries
21:37:16 <TrueBrain> bananas/models.py shows a field in File object called 'downloads
21:37:17 <Noldo> in Django queries do you
21:37:26 <TrueBrain> this contains the amount of downloads
21:37:34 <TrueBrain> mind you: increasing of the value is NOT done by the website
21:37:38 <TrueBrain> it is inserted via various of other ways
21:37:48 *** Rubix`` has joined #openttd
21:39:14 <andythenorth> TrueBrain: thanks. (I'm used to Zope, which has a python object database). I sort of assume everyone else is writing crazy sql :o I guess I'm wrong :)
21:39:32 <TrueBrain> takes out the hard work completely :)
21:40:08 <aber> Who lost the "src/video/cocoa/macos.h" file?
21:41:22 <frosch123> it was inappropiate for apple; it did not start with an "i"
21:44:13 <andythenorth> TrueBrain: I have read the source of views.py, but am unsure....when 'updating' a grf, does BaNaNaS overwrite the old one, or keep multiple versions?
21:45:13 <Rubidium> andythenorth: it keeps multiple versions, only the last will be shown in-game (by default), unless you know the 'id' and md5 checksum and request it by that
21:45:47 <andythenorth> so the number of downloads for each version could in theory be calculated / shown?
21:45:55 <TrueBrain> it shows per version :)
21:45:58 <TrueBrain> upload a new, counter is at 0 :p
21:46:03 <TrueBrain> either way, sorry, got to go .. going out :)
21:48:54 * andythenorth wonders how to test a potential patch to BaNaNaS? (scratches head)
21:49:03 *** Diablo-D3 has joined #openttd
21:49:49 <Rubidium> andythenorth: ask very nicely whether we want to patch the test environment?
21:50:22 <andythenorth> ok, so I should figure out the patch first :)
21:50:29 <aber> so, in "src/video/cocoa/fullscreen.mm" is a "#include "macos.h"", but there is no macos.h.
21:50:40 <andythenorth> I just want to see download counts for all versions of a grf, shouldn't be too hard?
21:51:44 *** thingwath has joined #openttd
21:54:06 <Yexo> aber: r19003, part of the commit message is "I can/have not test(ed) (including compiling) this fix.", so that proves true
21:55:25 <Bluelight> It's weird, but sometimes I just can't get to play on Luuklands servers.. I lose connection all the time for long periods of time..
21:56:03 <aber> Can someone revert that "fix"? I don't know it calls some function inside some nonexistent file?
21:56:23 <Rubidium> aber: better come with a fix for the fix
21:56:27 <Yexo> aber: can you change the line to #include "../../os/macosx/macos.h"
22:03:29 *** Coco-Banana-Man has quit IRC
22:04:46 <aber> if i would like to put the mac binary on my homepage, what else do i have to display? Source? Link?
22:05:26 <andythenorth> Rubidium: I've got a patched file for bananas (changes one html file)...what should I do? Learn to diff?
22:07:07 <Rubidium> andythenorth: try svn diff
22:08:31 <planetmaker> aber: only publish what you get by using 'make bundle_dmg'
22:08:52 <planetmaker> Then you have all required files
22:09:29 <Rubidium> though technically he has to 'release' the source too, especially because it's modified from what we released
22:09:30 *** Chris_Booth has joined #openttd
22:09:53 <andythenorth> Rubidium: got a diff, what should I do with it next? :)
22:10:43 <Rubidium> upload it somewhere so TrueBrain or I can take a look at it
22:12:20 <Yexo> aber: did changeing the include to #include "../../os/macosx/macos.h" help or what else did you change?

22:21:32 <Yexo> PeterT: yes, see the dev forum
22:21:56 <PeterT> nice job andythenorth!
22:22:02 <andythenorth> PeterT: hold your horse, it's three <td> tags :P
22:23:06 <andythenorth> and um...I write html and python all day some days
22:23:52 <PeterT> so this change, it's in effect immediately/
22:24:05 * andythenorth wonders if django can execute code in html tags (like zope can)? A total would be useful...
22:25:12 <blathijs> andythenorth: You can use template tags to do nifty stuff
22:26:42 <Rubidium> would be be at 7 million bananas downloads within 10 days?
22:27:32 <andythenorth> Prof_Frink: ever passed over blind yeo?
22:29:14 <blathijs> andythenorth: Not sure if there is a tag to do what you want, though
22:30:14 <andythenorth> I want to create a summary total of downloads for all versions of a given asset
22:30:52 <andythenorth> I don't know if it's best done in the view 'manager', or in the template?
22:31:34 <Rubidium> hmm, no don't think we'll be at 7 million bananas downloads in 10 days; recent averages seem to be dropping below 30k a day, so we're probably not going to make it
22:31:34 <andythenorth> I would think add it to the view, then render it in the template

22:39:26 <andythenorth> that's not django, that's Zope, with TAL templating. TAL is available in Django I think, but is optional
22:39:36 <andythenorth> or so google leads me to believe
22:40:00 *** Eddi|zuHause has joined #openttd

23:40:28 <ccfreak2k> Is this syntactically correct?
23:42:06 <Rubidium> yeah, though I'd write it differently
23:47:03 <Shapeshifter> mh. this odd stuff is still happening. the city, now at 1700 people, will randomly stop accepting goods.
23:47:13 <Shapeshifter> a few months later it starts accepting them again
23:47:52 <Rubidium> then it's rebuilding a building that accepted goods bringing it under the threshold for accepting goods
23:48:35 <Shapeshifter> mh. problem is then the goods start piling up and when they accept goods again at a station, the goods that are already there sit around.
23:48:48 <Shapeshifter> and I have to drive in circles picking up the goods and dropping them again
23:49:02 <Rubidium> then don't force unload
continue to next day ⏵
