IRC logs for #openttd on OFTC at 2010-02-25
            
00:00:51 <planetmaker> hm... Dutch: muziekset or geluidsvervangingsset ?
00:01:38 <Rubidium> I've 'fixed' that one myself
00:01:54 <planetmaker> he.
00:02:16 <glx> hmm seems I have some translation to do
00:02:21 <planetmaker> Yeah well. So you want to do the commit? Otherwise I'd push those changes to OpenMSX
00:02:21 <IPG> then, I open the Hungarian thread in General OpenTTD
00:03:19 <Rubidium> planetmaker: feel free to commit/push
00:03:27 <IPG> or to Developement?
00:03:48 <Rubidium> the german one is in general
00:04:29 <planetmaker> More people read general ;-)
00:04:58 <IPG> okay
00:05:42 <planetmaker> It helps to make some detailed proposals right away, IPG :-)
00:06:06 <IPG> ok
00:06:38 <IPG> it will be i think first a general "theres a bug fix it man" and others topic
00:07:06 <IPG> is it allowed to use own language in these topics, or only parallel, or neither?
00:07:53 <Rubidium> I think the mods are against that
00:07:55 <IPG> maybe parallel will work
00:07:57 <Yexo> where possible, use english
00:08:00 <IPG> ok
00:08:15 <Yexo> people who translate have to grasp the english too, otherwise they can't translate
00:08:56 <Zuu> Hmm, I can only think of a very very formal translation of "credits" to Swedish :-s
00:08:57 <planetmaker> Granted, translation threads in English 'feel' awkward.
00:08:58 <Yexo> and if it'd be in whatever-language-other-then-english new people will start asking questions about openttd in general in that topic, if they don't know english
00:09:25 <glx> hmm orig_dos.obg miss default origin ;)
00:09:32 <planetmaker> After all you discuss your own mother tongue in and the intricacies of that language in English
00:09:35 <Zuu> But maybe it is already used somewhere in the about-dialog :-)
00:10:00 <Rubidium> glx: you're not translating them directly in svn, are you?
00:10:21 <Rubidium> I'll add the missing default on the next flush of base set translations
00:10:32 <Eddi|zuHause> IPG: the german topic is in english, except for the actual translations
00:10:42 <IPG> ok, thanks
00:11:00 <glx> Rubidium: I'll give you a diff ;)
00:11:39 <planetmaker> Eddi|zuHause: I'm still not convinced that it helps the topic itself. But then - it's an English forum.
00:11:53 <Zuu> Hmm, "You can find it on your Transport Tycoon Deluxe CD-ROM" - it could be translated to either "den" or "det" depending on the surounding text. :-)
00:12:23 <Rubidium> it = $file
00:12:23 <Zuu> Only one of them would be the correct one.
00:12:30 <Zuu> Ok
00:13:06 <Rubidium> it's something like "$file is missing. $message"
00:13:44 *** Neon has quit IRC
00:15:53 *** Wizzleby has quit IRC
00:18:34 <Zuu> Thanks.
00:19:47 <Zuu> Now I'm trying to figure out how to write "please redownload from BaNaNaS" without including den/det as for eg AIs and scenarios would use different words for 'it' :-D
00:20:28 <Eddi|zuHause> add gender support for base translations! :p
00:21:14 <Rubidium> Zuu: it won't be used for AIs/scenarios; only for the base sets (graphics, sound, music)
00:21:14 <glx> crazy ;)
00:22:13 <Zuu> Good, because it is the last word in a combined word thet determines which 'it' to use and all three would end with 'package'. :-)
00:22:50 <planetmaker> Rubidium: is there a way to detect whether a base set is outdated and give the user a hint to get a newer version?
00:23:10 <planetmaker> I've seen already quite some screenshots where people use old OpenGFX with missing sprites
00:23:14 <Rubidium> not without going to banananananananananananananas
00:23:46 <Rubidium> or hardcoding versions in OpenTTD binaries
00:24:06 <planetmaker> both is... not satisfactory... hm
00:24:29 <Eddi|zuHause> make openttd home-phoning by default ;)
00:25:52 <Yexo> add a version in openttd that is increased every time new graphics gets added, then add the same number to all graphic set obg files, check for obg-version >= openttd-version
00:26:11 <Zuu> A GUI-wise blocking (but running the download asynchron from the GUI-update process) update dialog with a cancel button that show when OpenTTD starts should do it. Possible also with a confirm button before even trying to connect online.
00:26:21 <Yexo> but that'll warn every time if there is no update for the graphic set
00:26:32 <planetmaker> Bananas = Back doors And Ntwork administration Assumed. No Authorization Seeked
00:27:18 <planetmaker> :-P
00:27:31 <planetmaker> Yexo: might be an interesting idea.
00:27:50 <planetmaker> Because every additional gui sprites makes a base set look ugly at some point
00:28:48 *** Dreamxtreme has joined #openttd
00:30:31 <IPG> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=47381
00:30:35 <IPG> I think it will be ok
00:31:01 <Rubidium> planetmaker: it'd mean releasing a new version of OpenGFX 'now'
00:31:02 <Zuu> Yexo: Sounds like something rather more doable.
00:31:22 <Yexo> Rubidium: why?
00:31:29 *** Wizzleby has joined #openttd
00:31:30 <planetmaker> Rubidium: yeah...
00:31:34 <Yexo> add a version field to obg files, default to 0 if not present
00:31:40 *** Wintersoldier has joined #openttd
00:31:41 <Yexo> set openttd-version to 0
00:31:58 <Yexo> next time graphics are added the openttd-version will be 1 and current opengfx is outdated
00:31:59 <Rubidium> Yexo: but preferably people update to the most recent version, i.e. 0 is not enough
00:32:01 <planetmaker> Yexo: in case OpenTTD has a new sprite and complains.
00:32:02 *** Eddi|zuHause has quit IRC
00:32:19 *** Eddi|zuHause has joined #openttd
00:32:22 <planetmaker> It'd be bad, if then it complains and there's no 'cure' in form of a 'fixed' or updated GFX
00:32:52 *** Wizzleby has quit IRC
00:32:52 <Rubidium> and isn't it meant to 'force' the users to get the new version that contains the shade sprite?
00:32:57 <Yexo> planetmaker: it's not that bad, just assume that new graphics are only added in trunk, not in release branches
00:33:11 <planetmaker> Also true
00:33:14 <Yexo> then there is only a big problem if a release is made without opengfx being up to date
00:33:33 <planetmaker> Well, that can usually be helped to not happen
00:33:46 <Yexo> but then what is worse: having users complain they want an update but there is none of users complaining their graphics are wrong
00:33:46 <planetmaker> at least it worked for beta-1 ;-)
00:34:20 <planetmaker> good question
00:36:16 <Zuu> At least after the new base package has been released I gues it is better that the users know how to resolve the issue (update the base backage)
00:36:23 <planetmaker> both is bad, so the current situation is easier :-)
00:36:51 <Yexo> planetmaker: that was or course the worse case situation (update needed,but not yet available)
00:36:59 <Yexo> after an update is available you get the situation:
00:37:12 <Yexo> users complain about wrong graphics or get a warning they should update
00:37:16 <planetmaker> well. It will happen. At least for brief periods of time
00:37:28 <Yexo> some will then complain they don't understand to upgrade, but you'll always get stupid complains
00:37:57 <Yexo> as long as those brief periods of time are nightlies only, I don't think it's a big problem
00:38:19 <Zuu> The error message could contain wordings like that they should check for a newer version. Of course all users will wait a time and then ask. Some will wait very short time and thus be annoying.
00:38:21 <Yexo> the nightlies themself are ocasionally broken too (as in, don't even start). Not often, but it happens
00:38:34 <planetmaker> Well, yes. Having that for stable would be bad. But as said: that can be helped and worked for the first beta
00:38:56 <planetmaker> At least if the change is only one additional GUI sprite
00:39:57 <planetmaker> So... mostly I withdraw my implicit feature request ;-) - or make it only work for stable releases
00:41:04 <Rubidium> planetmaker: if (using(openttd-nightly)) use(opengfx-nightly); // problem mostly solved
00:41:23 <planetmaker> yes
00:41:46 <planetmaker> but a person might update stable and re-use and old, inappropriate opengfx
00:41:54 <planetmaker> *upgrade
00:42:12 <planetmaker> but I guesss... they should know how to use bananas
00:42:13 <Rubidium> yes, but in that case the upgrade warning should 'just' work
00:42:35 <planetmaker> yes
00:43:08 <Rubidium> although it'll be quite opengfx specific, i.e. it won't work for newer versions of OpenSFX/OpenMSX
00:43:41 <Rubidium> nor will it work when there is a massive bug in OpenGFX and you want people to update to the fixed version and nothing changed in between for OpenTTD
00:44:07 <IPG> zuu, i read your translate (base set), and i want to comment: in other languages like hungarian the whole text means a fully other thing if you not change the order of the words :)
00:44:53 <Zuu> Okay :-)

00:52:09 <planetmaker> > nor will it work when there is a massive bug in OpenGFX and you want people to update to the fixed version and nothing changed in between for OpenTTD <-- also true.
00:52:21 <planetmaker> so... no way except phoning home. Which is out-of-question
00:58:31 <Eddi|zuHause> the versioning thing suggested does not sound bad
00:59:03 <Eddi|zuHause> every time a sprite gets added to openttd, increase the version, tell all the opengfx users that their set is outdated
00:59:40 <Eddi|zuHause> alternative: fall back to openttd[dw].grf for missing opengfx sprites
01:00:23 <Rubidium> oh... please not...

07:24:33 <roboboy> hello
07:40:50 <Terkhen> taking up a project after two months of pause is difficult :/
07:43:57 <roboboy> if I was to test the DOS port of OpenTTD would it be prefered if I tested it under DOS 6 or DOS 7?
07:45:57 <roboboy> I plan to resurect an old PC on the weekend which is only capable of runing NT4 or 95 or older
07:47:21 *** Wizzleby has joined #openttd
07:47:25 <Terkhen> isn't DOS 7 part of Windows 95?
07:48:23 <ccfreak2k> Yes, Windows 95 and 98 had DOS "7" in it, I think.
07:50:26 <roboboy> ME had DOS 8 im not sure if 98 had it or 7
07:51:12 <roboboy> but would it be better to test it under standalone DOS or the DOS that comes with 95?
07:55:06 <Terkhen> I don't know for sure, but DOS 7 seems unofficial; I'd go with 6
07:57:43 <roboboy> ok
08:03:47 <Terkhen> I'll try OpenTTD in my old 386 some day to see what happens, it barely satisfies Transport Tycoon Deluxe requirements
08:23:08 <roboboy> where should I search to find the code that looks after the various keyboard shortcuts?
08:26:30 <Terkhen> most of them are at toolbar_gui.cpp (search for 'Q')
08:26:55 <ccfreak2k> IIRC keystrokes are sent/filtered by individual GUI elements.
08:27:10 <ccfreak2k> The toolbar catches the mosr.
08:27:58 <Terkhen> Ctrl+Click shortcuts are coded in a different way, IIRC the variable was called _ctrl_pressed
08:28:23 <roboboy> ok
08:29:18 <ccfreak2k> There's an SDL event loop in one of the files; I'd start there.
08:31:19 <roboboy> I found what I was looking for
08:31:23 <roboboy> brb
08:41:52 <roboboy> back
08:42:24 *** JVassie has joined #openttd
08:47:47 <roboboy> lets see if I can change what ctrl s does in openttd
08:48:20 * roboboy waits for OpenTTD to build
08:54:03 <planetmaker> roboboy, it creates a screenshot ;-) At least usually
08:54:34 <roboboy> and I wanted to change it to bring up the savewindow
08:54:57 <planetmaker> hm. For me there's a difference between command+s and ctrl+s ;-)
08:55:17 <dihedral> hello
08:55:33 <planetmaker> hello-dih-ho ;-)
08:56:26 <roboboy> yey my changes worked
08:56:32 * roboboy creates a diff
08:58:54 <planetmaker> roboboy, it might be more useful to update or rather rewrite something like http://bugs.openttd.org/task/2193?string=configurable+key&project=1&search_name=&type[0]=&sev[0]=&pri[0]=&due[0]=&reported[0]=&cat[0]=&status[0]=open&percent[0]=&opened=&dev=&closed=&duedatefrom=&duedateto=&changedfrom=&changedto=&openedfrom=&openedto=&closedfrom=&closedto=
08:59:15 <SpComb^> nice
09:04:03 <roboboy> hm I could look at it, but im not fluent in C++ yet
09:05:32 <planetmaker> let me highlight the only important word: _yet_ ;-)

09:26:05 <dihedral> !!fluent does it too... if you want to define it that way :-P

11:05:05 <Peping> hi :)
11:06:24 <Peping> I'm quite new to the idea of playing OpenTTD on my cellphone. Are there actually any (even unofficial) builds of Openttd for Windows Mobile?
11:06:37 <peter1138> no
11:06:44 <peter1138> oh, including unofficial, probably
11:07:09 <Rubidium> wasn't there like an ancient version?
11:07:18 <Rubidium> ancient as in five year-ish old
11:07:50 <Peping> I know about 0.6.0 for WinCE. What about 1.0.0? Has anybody announced that he'll build it form WinCE?
11:09:17 <Rubidium> not here at least

11:20:17 * roboboy wonders if DJGPP will run under DOSBox and compile OpenTTD under DOSBox
11:20:58 *** KenjiE20 has joined #openttd
11:22:35 <roboboy> well its likely on Sunday I will have to compile OpenTTD for DOS myself anyway
11:26:43 <peter1138> roboboy, why wouldn't it work? it's made for dos...
11:27:05 <peter1138> although i dunno if it will actually compile openttd :)
11:28:42 <roboboy> DOSBox might not implement all the bits of DOS a compiler needs as DOSBox is aimed at games (Yes I know Windows 3.11 will run under DOSBox)
11:28:44 <roboboy> brb
11:29:13 <peter1138> no, dosbox just emulates a dos-based pc
11:29:20 <peter1138> a compiler won't need anything special

12:09:00 <Noldo> in what way?
12:09:17 <SpComb^> all my far too rare soldiers just walk back and forth between harbors, and the ships just drive around empty 95% of the time
12:09:31 <peter1138> planetmaker, why do you think it does?
12:09:41 <Ammler> peter1138: webmin or the tool from the authorization

12:31:27 <dihedral> where will the r20k party be?

12:32:05 <dihedral> if my dad is still ... there .... then no
12:32:16 <dihedral> also a good option
12:32:18 <dihedral> :-P
12:32:41 <Rubidium> oh, and for what it's worth... opengfx does not work out-of-the-box on DOS
12:32:51 <dihedral> :-P
12:36:13 <roboboy> ok
12:36:24 <roboboy> I wonder why?

12:36:38 <orudge> OpenTTD for DOS :)
12:36:52 * orudge probably still has his hacky patches somewhere to get networking working via WaTTCP
12:38:35 * dihedral only knows WaTTheFuck
12:38:49 <orudge> http://www.erickengelke.com/wattcp/
12:39:12 <Rubidium> though I kinda abandoned the DOS port because 'we' couldn't get it to work on real hardware
12:39:13 <orudge> I recall running a server on FreeDOS which I could happily connect to from other machines
12:39:16 *** heffer has quit IRC
12:39:18 <orudge> it was a little slow alas
12:40:03 <orudge> Rubidium: hmm, Allegro issues I guess? At least, I tend to find getting high-res games, etc, to work on real machines to be quite a challenge if you don't have a suitably old graphics card
12:40:26 <Rubidium> orudge: yeah
12:40:34 <roboboy> well i'm likely to be setting up an old PC with DOS on it on Sunday
12:40:55 <roboboy> the machine came with Win98 on it
12:41:14 <roboboy> ill have to hunt graphics card drivers though

12:50:53 <planetmaker> s/count/rate/ ;-)
12:51:19 <Rubidium> 73 last week, 300 last month
12:51:21 <planetmaker> 975 is the offset of the current svn repo, right? hm... :-)
12:51:48 <planetmaker> so about two months, 1st April ;-)
12:53:11 <Rubidium> april first is in 5 weeks
12:53:20 <planetmaker> err... yes.
12:53:24 <planetmaker> 1st May :-)
12:53:38 <Yexo> +- 10 per day, so 1st april we'll be around r19600
12:54:05 <planetmaker> so... yes :-) Feel invited for the 20k party :-)
12:54:11 <planetmaker> weekend 1st May
12:54:53 <planetmaker> The Dutch invasion ;-)
12:54:53 <roboboy> what is the best way for me to compile OpenTTD for DOS? build a cross compiler under Mingw?
12:56:05 <Rubidium> roboboy: I don't know what the best way is; ask DJ. I'm cross-compiling from Linux
12:56:13 <roboboy> ok
12:56:29 *** Rhamphoryncus has quit IRC
12:58:39 <orudge> roboboy: in theory you should just be able to download and install DJGPP, although you'll want to install a more comprehensive UNIX-like environment
12:58:47 <orudge> all of which can be found on the DJGPP site
12:58:58 <orudge> I think last time I built OpenTTD for DOS though, I also cross-compiled via Linux though
13:00:27 <peter1138> shouldn't be hard to just grab the bits and try it
13:01:31 * orudge grabs peter1138's bits and tries it
13:01:32 <Rubidium> yup, it's like 20-30 minutes work for downloading a complete i386 chroot + the required binaries/libraries

13:14:43 <Eddi|zuHause> i'd be more worried about the parking space for the caravans :p

13:22:11 <Rubidium> http://rbijker.net/openttd/openttd-r19248-DOS.zip <- still needs the data files and such; if you use OpenGFX fix the file names (no long filename support!)
13:22:26 <Rubidium> though it works (for what I could test) in dosbox
13:23:16 <roboboy> thankyou

13:32:17 <planetmaker> I haven't seen that in long ;-)
13:38:22 <SpComb^> Eddi|zuHause: more stupid ships: http://yzzrt.qmsk.net/~terom/stuff/harbor_ship.png
13:38:42 <SpComb^> there used to be a harbor there, but the ship got stuck and my soldiers kept going there to turn around, so I removed it
13:38:46 <SpComb^> and the ship stays
13:39:14 <SpComb^> it's annoying because S2 is pretty bug-free otherwise
13:39:45 <roboboy> it seems to be stuck in fast forward
13:40:11 <Eddi|zuHause> SpComb^: is that supposed to be an "expedition"?

18:52:38 <planetmaker> cp -r $filelist directory
18:52:41 <planetmaker> doesn't work...
18:53:34 <Belugas> i'd grab a mouse to do that
18:53:39 <Belugas> but i'm a mouse guy
18:53:45 <planetmaker> filelist = `hg st -A | grep -v '? ' | grep -v 'I '`
18:53:47 <Belugas> that must be why i have a cat :S

18:55:09 <Belugas> mmh... right...
18:56:37 <planetmaker> hm... I need a list of dirs, first create the dirs, then it would work...
18:57:22 <Zuu> I sometimes use -R for recrusive copy, though I don't remember the difference now. :-)
18:57:39 <planetmaker> the man page tells me it's synonymous

21:56:54 <Zuu> Up in screen?
21:57:00 <ccfreak2k> Yes.
21:57:05 <Zuu> Eg -1, -1 in relative coordinates then.
21:57:20 <ccfreak2k> I don't know what coordinate system is used.
21:57:39 <planetmaker> <supdood> do i start it in singleplayer and save, and then load in multiplayer? <-- yes
21:57:44 <Nite_Owl> I thought North was upper right hand corner ??
21:57:48 <Zuu> Just made an AI that placed 8 relative signs with the relative coordinates on them.
21:58:40 <planetmaker> Nite_Owl, the corners of the map are up, left, right and down
21:58:43 <Zuu> Would need to encode dirrections as a number 0-7 or something. Would be nice to use the same encoding as OpenTTD uses, but is not neccessary.

22:18:21 *** heffer has quit IRC
22:20:58 <sparr> Nite_Owl: one simple reason to prefer the top left or top right (edge of the map), instead of the top (corner of the map) is because you can draw a compass with arrows and labels pointing at the edge, but not at the corner.
22:21:15 <Zuu> Oo, if you search for "direction" you don't find the "directions" page in the wiki.
22:21:18 <sparr> draw with track, that is :)
22:21:22 <Zuu> How do you add a redirect?
22:22:26 <sparr> also, one might argue for the row/column tile numbering as a basis for directions
22:22:35 <sparr> with the first row running west to east along the north edge of the map
22:22:37 <planetmaker> sparr, you can draw a compass pointing each of the 8 directions...
22:22:54 <planetmaker> though the 4 principal ones are easier.
22:22:56 <sparr> planetmaker: not with arrows or text :)
22:23:09 <Nite_Owl> I was only going by what I remembered that icon to be which is what I always used in my own head
22:23:17 <planetmaker> with tracks is what we do
22:23:20 <sparr> and they won't all cross in the center unless you use double track for the diagonals
22:23:38 <sparr> Nite_Owl: it's confusing enough that I usually try to refer to landmarks

22:28:49 <sparr> Zuu: interesting. where do direction names come into play in the source?
22:28:57 <Zuu> I prefer to stick to the one used in the sources for my AIs.

22:30:35 <Zuu> In PAXLink I will use it to store the relative dirrection from a station where clear tiles have been found so that I can rotate the bus stops in a good way.
22:31:30 <OwenS> Since nobody seems to have mentioned, and I'm curious, is the north vector (1, 1) or (0,0)? :-P
22:31:48 <Eddi|zuHause> PS: the X axis points towards south-west, and the Y axis points towards south-east
22:32:36 <sparr> not calling Y+ "North" is confusing
22:32:57 <planetmaker> sparr, quite not so ;-)
22:33:13 <planetmaker> it all depends upon definitions
22:33:22 <Eddi|zuHause> sparr: direction of X and Y is according to the right hand rule
22:33:26 <sparr> Zuu: I should point out that the comments in direction_type.h say that different directions are used "in you games" :)
22:33:36 <OwenS> sparr: Thats something I agree with. Theres a reason my projects's north vector is (0 0 1) rather than OpenGL's default (0 0 -1). Even though that requires massaging things slightly :-P
22:33:54 <sparr> Eddi|zuHause: huh? that only dictates their relative orientation, has nothing to do with absolute
22:34:20 <Eddi|zuHause> it comes by (0,0) being the top corner, and z being upwards (screen)
22:34:34 <Eddi|zuHause> leaves only one direction for X and Y
22:34:39 <sparr> OwenS: yeah, been there. in my head, Z+ is "up", Y+ is "north", and X+ is "east", and I'd rather write wrappers to keep it that way than have to constantly remember conflicting systems
22:35:00 <OwenS> sparr: Heh. In my head, X+ is east/right, Y+ is up, Z+ is north/forward
22:35:17 <sparr> fun times :)
22:35:30 <sparr> my bias is based on paper maps
22:35:46 <Zuu> sparr: Are you saying that 1, 0 is North?
22:35:53 <sparr> Zuu: 0,1

22:36:51 <sparr> Zuu: (X,Y,Z)... (1,0,0) is east, (0,1,0) is north, (0,0,1) is up. that's how it works on most paper maps.

22:40:22 <Eddi|zuHause> (0,1) in screen coordinates, (-1,-1) in map coordinates
22:40:45 <Zuu> Oh, he was using screen coordinates...
22:40:58 <Zuu> well, then I don't need to re-make my image :-)

22:41:47 <ccfreak2k> Let's argue over something else now.
22:42:03 <Terkhen> good night

22:44:35 <Eddi|zuHause> really funny it gets when it comes to distances...
22:45:09 * andythenorth is pretty certain where the north is
22:45:12 <Eddi|zuHause> (-1,-1) is length 2 when it comes to calculating delivery distance, 1.4 when it comes to pathfinder distance, and 1 when it comes to vehicle movement distance
22:45:12 <Zuu> Yea, got some Sweref99 coordinates to intreprete today. :-)
22:45:52 <OwenS> Delivery does manhattan distance? O_o
22:45:59 <Zuu> Yep
22:46:00 <Eddi|zuHause> yes
22:46:37 <Eddi|zuHause> it's one of the problematic unbalances in the game
22:46:40 <OwenS> Even when I'm doing visibility calculations for ~10000 objects I don't resort to manhattan (I stick with square distances since I just need order :P )
22:46:41 <sparr> and trains move faster diagonally
22:46:47 <sparr> so diagonal deliveries are doubly bonused
22:49:28 <Eddi|zuHause> it would be fairly simple to just switch to 1-distance for deliveries, quite more problematic to switch to square/euclidean distance for vehicle movements
22:49:40 *** Fast2 has quit IRC
22:50:02 <sparr> stupid game exploit question...
22:50:32 <sparr> when is the location of the source station recorded, for use in calculating delivery distance?
22:51:48 <Eddi|zuHause> there once was a bug when the location of the source station was calculated on delivery, and might have been deleted since then, and (0,0) being assumed instead
22:51:56 <Eddi|zuHause> not sure how that was fixed
22:52:07 <sparr> interesting, as that would affect my idea
22:52:16 <sparr> my idea being to move the source station while the vehicle is en route
22:52:46 * sparr tests
22:53:53 <OwenS> Record source industry? :-P
22:55:32 <sparr> when does the delivery timer start?

23:10:52 <OwenS> Hmm. /me adds a "const" specifier. String a, b; (a + b) = c is silly and should not compile!

23:26:14 <Progman> is there a documentation file of the general layout of the grf format? (not the nfo files)
23:27:06 <Rubidium> lmgtfy.com?q=grf%20format
23:27:18 <Progman> its not that simple
23:27:27 <Rubidium> http://www.ttdpatch.net/grfcodec/grf.html ?
23:27:34 *** TheMask96 has quit IRC
23:29:27 *** Cybertinus has quit IRC
23:29:27 <Progman> this doesn't say there is a spritecounter at the beginning
23:31:26 <aber> "with no meta-information" I would say this is inspired by a c String
23:31:34 <Progman> nor the pseudo sprites are in the format {size} 0xff {data}
23:31:37 <Rubidium> Progman: that's because the spritecounter is not part of the GRF file format
23:32:14 <Rubidium> e.g. the base graphics grfs don't have a sprite counter
23:32:41 <Rubidium> also in grf.html "if infox==0xff, the sprite is a special type...."
23:34:11 <Rubidium> i.e. it mentions pseudo sprites, only doesn't call them that
