02:03:56 <SmatZ> morning
02:04:21 <PeterT> morning SmatZ, you're up early ;-)
02:04:30 <PeterT> and I'm up late :p
02:04:33 <SmatZ> :-)
02:04:38 <SmatZ> very early...
02:04:46 <PeterT> lol yes
02:04:53 <PeterT> going to work or something?
02:04:53 <SmatZ> actually, I just came home
02:04:58 <SmatZ> :-p
02:05:01 <PeterT> aha
02:05:51 <SmatZ> what are you doing so late here, PeterT?
02:06:14 <PeterT> well, school is almost over, so I don't see any reason to go to bed early
02:06:21 <SmatZ> :)
02:06:23 <SmatZ> "almost"
02:06:26 <PeterT> hehe

02:08:33 <PeterT> hehe :)
02:08:56 <SmatZ> I woke up at 6am, and now it's 4am and I don't feel sleepy
02:08:58 <SmatZ> strange
02:09:43 <PeterT> too much beer :-P
02:09:57 <SmatZ> hehe :)
02:18:34 <PeterT> oh wow - I'm not good at this :(
02:18:39 <PeterT> I'm already yawning

09:32:18 <planetmaker> anyone around in Brussels on Thursday night? :-)
09:32:56 <Mazur> I'd guess all the residents, apart from a few on vacation.
09:33:00 <planetmaker> (I see where that question goes wrong...) ;-)
09:33:31 <Rubidium> no, but is wednesday evening in Luxembourg close enough?
09:33:37 <planetmaker> :-D
09:34:07 <planetmaker> I fear I'll be working quite late near Brussels on Wednesday evening

10:52:25 <fjb> The DVD writer I got from eBay has a visible and smellable nicotine problem. :-(
10:52:37 <planetmaker> meh
10:55:24 <fjb> It is covered in brown stains, it stinks, it sticks, it has brown nuggets in the tray.
10:56:05 <Rubidium> fjb: so that were the "free extra's" in the advertisement
10:57:04 <fjb> They were not advertised, sadly. There was an not advertised DVD in it.
10:58:09 <fjb> Hm, a picture CD from cewe. Am I curious?
10:58:23 *** roboboy has quit IRC
11:09:10 *** Mitch_1_2 has quit IRC
11:18:15 <Rubidium> what's cewe for location?
11:19:20 *** roboboy has joined #openttd
11:22:43 <fjb> cewe color, a film development service.
11:23:55 *** Coco-Banana-Man has joined #openttd
11:24:18 <fjb> Oh, the CD also has a nicotine problem. :-(
11:26:20 <fjb> It is not readable any more.
11:27:25 <Eddi|zuHause> i think you've been screwed...
11:27:49 <Eddi|zuHause> get a new one next time... they only cost like 20€...
11:29:19 <fjb> It is one of the rare drives with Philips chip which can test the quality of a DVD. You can't buy them new any more.
11:30:26 <fjb> Nicotine kills people and technical instruments.
11:40:50 <dihedral> tada
11:47:56 <Eddi|zuHause> hm... is there a parameter in firs to override compatibility checks?
11:49:29 *** Coco-Banana-Man has quit IRC
11:53:15 *** einKarl has joined #openttd
11:55:49 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: no, but one could be added. But then there would be bug reports :P
11:55:50 <planetmaker> I don't think so, Eddi|zuHause
11:56:00 <andythenorth> there is the ability to remove them from source yourself :)
11:56:10 <Eddi|zuHause> yeah...
11:56:23 <planetmaker> well, an over-ride parameter would be somewhat easy, but still...
11:56:27 <Eddi|zuHause> the problem is, i have modded the industry changes out of alpine.grf
11:56:28 <planetmaker> can be hell
11:56:41 <planetmaker> then give it a different grfID and you're done
11:56:48 <Eddi|zuHause> but when i change the grf-id, dbset won't load, and if i don't change the id, firs won't load
11:56:56 <planetmaker> :-)
11:57:06 <planetmaker> then you need to mod FIRS. Provide a patch
11:57:18 <planetmaker> happily added, I think
11:57:57 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: line 51 in checks.pnfo
11:58:01 <andythenorth> ish
11:58:09 <Eddi|zuHause> i'll check
11:58:26 <andythenorth> planetmaker: is a parameter a good or bad thing for this problem?
11:58:44 <andythenorth> I can forsee support problems
12:00:41 *** Coco-Banana-Man has joined #openttd
12:00:45 *** linuxbot has joined #openttd
12:01:08 <Eddi|zuHause> germanrv has a parameter to override the check, for use in combination with "allow multiple vehicle sets"
12:01:09 <linuxbot> hi
12:02:29 * andythenorth imagines a conversation
12:02:41 <andythenorth> user: "Hi, FIRS doesn't work"
12:02:55 <andythenorth> andy: "what do you mean by doesn't work?"
12:02:58 <andythenorth> etc etc
12:03:06 <dihedral> we know those conversations ;-)
12:03:14 <dihedral> it exists with everything!
12:03:16 <andythenorth> until "user: I enabled the over-ride parameter"
12:03:27 <andythenorth> andy: "oh well, can't help"
12:03:36 <Ammler> andythenorth: support is never a excuse for not doing something, you could simply decline support
12:03:54 <andythenorth> meh
12:03:57 <Ammler> :-P
12:04:13 <andythenorth> anyone who wants to over-ride it can compile themself
12:04:41 <dihedral> and then you'll get a load of 'can you provide a precompiled for me?' in the forum
12:04:41 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: are you going to distribute alpine grf?
12:04:47 <dihedral> or a 'is there a patch for' ...
12:04:52 <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: no
12:04:54 <dihedral> 'why can i not play on that server'?
12:05:11 <andythenorth> dihedral: yeah, but I can ignore those, because they are feature requests not bug reports.
12:05:16 <dihedral> + if you decline support for something from the very beginning, why even bother with adding such a feature?
12:05:29 <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: i can live with you saying "there won't be a parameter"
12:05:29 <andythenorth> that's my feeling
12:05:35 <andythenorth> no parameter :)
12:05:35 <Ammler> yep
12:05:49 <dihedral> unless you make the paramter hold a word, such as "iknowthisisnotsupportet"
12:05:51 <Ammler> i just meant, don't use "support" as excuse
12:06:04 <Rubidium> Eddi|zuHause: you should've said "there won't be no parameter"
12:06:41 *** b_jonas has joined #openttd
12:08:04 <Eddi|zuHause> hm... there's an oddity in the newgrf window
12:08:41 <Eddi|zuHause> if you use the filter, and add one of the grfs, and click the add button again, it adds another grf not in the filtered list..
12:10:01 *** linuxbot has quit IRC
12:10:17 <dihedral> off by one?
12:10:56 <dihedral> or starting the 'index' all over again in the filtered list?

12:29:20 <b_jonas> can I continue a game saved in openttd 1.0.1 in 1.0.2-RC1? how much stuff is lost or broken?
12:31:22 <glx> yes
12:33:16 <Ammler> usually, things got fixed not broken due update ;-)
12:33:26 <Yexo> b_jonas: you can even continue savegames made with original ttd if you wanted
12:34:06 <Eddi|zuHause> (make sure town layout is set to "original" or "better roads", not "grid" in that case ;))
12:35:44 <b_jonas> thanks
12:36:54 <b_jonas> I'll try to upgrade to 1.0.2-RC1 then
12:46:05 *** JVassie has joined #openttd
12:50:11 <b_jonas> it built clean and loaded my game.
12:50:22 <b_jonas> now does this support changing the interface fonts, or is that not compiled in yet?
12:50:33 <b_jonas> do I need some configure option for that?
12:50:39 <b_jonas> s/compiled/merged/
12:51:23 <Yexo> that has been included for quite some time now, but only since 1.0.0 does the interface also scale when needed
12:51:31 <Yexo> the only way to change it is to modify the config file
12:51:44 <glx> 1.0.2-RC1 is just a bugfix for 1.0.1
12:51:48 <glx> no new feature
12:52:27 *** Adambean has joined #openttd
12:54:33 <b_jonas> ah, the config file

15:13:04 <b_jonas> is it bad to have both plane and passenger trains between the same two stations?
15:14:07 <planetmaker> why should it?
15:14:25 <planetmaker> trains can provide higher through-put as the airport capacities are limited
15:15:30 <b_jonas> well, I'm still building the train network
15:15:53 <b_jonas> this map is a bit strange, because the three largest cities are in one cluster in the middle of the map
15:16:05 <b_jonas> and the other large towns can't extend well
15:16:15 <b_jonas> so the middle cities are a bit crowded
15:16:26 <planetmaker> especially then planes are only good to give you starting money in order to build a nice train network ;-)
15:16:27 <b_jonas> I'm transporting everything there
15:16:45 <b_jonas> oh great, I thought there was a secret to planes I didn't discover
15:17:01 <b_jonas> but I'm not too good in passenger trains either
15:17:19 <b_jonas> I always get rich from goods instead
15:17:20 <planetmaker> it all depends on a good network :-)
15:17:38 <b_jonas> right, I'm trying to build one now

15:56:31 <b_jonas> meanwhile I'm getting "urgently needs replacing" messages
15:58:04 *** pugi has joined #openttd
15:58:07 <frosch123> enable autorenew?
16:02:48 <b_jonas> no, I don't like that
16:02:55 <b_jonas> especially now now that Asiastar has come out
16:02:58 <b_jonas> I want to decide the trains
16:03:06 <b_jonas> also, I want to play the game, not let the game play it itself
16:03:22 <glx> use autoreplace then ;)
16:09:26 <planetmaker> <3 autoreplace
16:15:18 <frosch123> isn't there a difference between using autorenew and watching ais?

17:29:21 <Eddi|zuHause> hm... i think i need someone with deeper grf-implementation knowledge here... situation is this: grf A defines vehicles, and grf B defines a cargo translation table and a refitmask for the vehicles in A. situation in openttd now is, that the cargo translation table of grf B gets ignored and the refitmask is treated for raw cargo slots.
17:30:41 <Eddi|zuHause> question is: is this an oversight, a misinterpretation of the specs on openttd's part, or a misinterpretation of the specs by the grf coder?
17:36:01 <glx> maybe with action 0 feature 8
17:36:52 <glx> property 11
17:37:22 *** welshdragon has quit IRC
17:37:22 *** snc has quit IRC
17:37:37 <Eddi|zuHause> as far as i know, that is already used.
17:38:04 <Eddi|zuHause> otherwise the changing of the refitmask has no effect at all (when multiple vehicle grfs is allowed)
17:39:59 *** Brianetta has joined #openttd
17:40:56 <frosch123> i guess only the cargotranslation table from the grf supplying the action3 is used
17:44:17 <Eddi|zuHause> so a solution would be, to have action 0 feature 8 property 11 to also override the cargo translation table of grf A?
17:44:27 <Eddi|zuHause> (if defined)
17:44:36 <frosch123> i don't think that makes any sense
17:44:57 <frosch123> cargo translation table is not only used for properties, but also for lots of varact2 variables
17:45:29 <Eddi|zuHause> so?
17:45:34 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: translators * r19946 /trunk/src/lang/ (french.txt indonesian.txt):

17:45:34 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: indonesian - 61 changes by prof
17:46:17 <Eddi|zuHause> other solution would be to store for each property(?!) which GRF defines it?
17:48:44 <Hirundo> ^^ at least for 1A/28/29 in _gted, to determine the correct refit mask
17:49:34 <frosch123> how does ttdp do it?
17:50:02 <Eddi|zuHause> i have no clue...

17:52:28 *** George is now known as Guest336
17:55:00 *** fonsinchen has quit IRC
17:56:19 <frosch123> ttdp does it the same
17:56:46 <frosch123> action3 defines the grf a vehicle belongs to, and that one defines the cargotranslationtable consistently for the whole vehicle
17:56:54 <frosch123> both variables as refit property
17:58:15 *** George34 has quit IRC
17:58:52 <Eddi|zuHause> so... any chance to properly solve it?
17:59:23 <frosch123> the issue is independent from the override-engines-from-grf property
18:00:59 <frosch123> i would say, just use the same cargo translation table in both grfs
18:01:05 *** tokai has quit IRC
18:01:41 <Eddi|zuHause> yes, but what if grf A cannot be changed?
18:03:03 <frosch123> use cargo classes, and zero refit mask :p
18:03:22 <planetmaker> well, but it still only gets you that far ;-)
18:03:26 *** tokai has joined #openttd
18:03:26 *** ChanServ sets mode: +v tokai
18:03:38 <peter1138> Eddi|zuHause, cargo translation table should be defined by the grf that is going to use it
18:03:44 <planetmaker> sometimes you really want to take out a specific cargo (or add it)
18:04:07 <planetmaker> is there a point for an industry set to have one?
18:04:22 <frosch123> no
18:04:30 <planetmaker> good :-)
18:04:42 <planetmaker> Then my perception wasn't that wrong
18:04:48 <frosch123> oh, maybe there is
18:04:55 <planetmaker> town cargos?
18:05:04 <frosch123> when your industry grf does not define all cargos itself
18:05:17 <frosch123> but also uses cargos from other grfs
18:05:22 <planetmaker> hm... what then?
18:05:37 <frosch123> then using a cargotranstable could be useful
18:07:47 <planetmaker> I think firs defines everything, though. But if not... how would a CTT help you then?
18:09:02 <frosch123> assume set A defines cargoslots 5-9. set A can coexist with either set B or set C, which each define cargoslots 10-15, though with different cargos. B and C are not compatible
18:09:34 <frosch123> if A uses a cargotranslation table it can distinguish the cargos without reliing on the original cargobit or slot
18:09:43 <frosch123> s/or bit//
18:11:35 <frosch123> anyway. if the grf only works with certain industry grfs, then it also knows the original cargobits they define, and then you do not need a cargotranslation table
18:11:57 <Ammler> how do I load a save with "old" banans grfs on a dedicated server?
18:12:09 <frosch123> cargotranstables are only needed when the origin of the cargo definition is unknown resp. can vary.
18:12:52 <frosch123> Ammler: how do you load it on a non-dedicated server?
18:13:13 <Ammler> with the gui -> load ->update grfs -> load again
18:13:27 <frosch123> that is singleplayer, isn't it?
18:14:58 <Ammler> yes, how to do that in mp dedi?

18:33:57 <planetmaker> b_jonas: always provide both, if you want feedback
18:35:27 <b_jonas> okay
18:35:37 <planetmaker> I can only speak for myself: only sometimes I'm in a mood to give feedback on 'look what I built here' - and only a few of those times I feel like opening actually the savegame
18:35:41 <b_jonas> it's electric

18:38:09 <b_jonas> right

18:45:16 <Ammler> what if r20k isn't done then?

18:47:24 <SmatZ> :)
18:47:38 <planetmaker> :-)
18:47:39 <Ammler> now, I get why TrueBrain asked for Wifi
18:47:50 <frosch123> but, well, at current rate, we need to do 30 revisions on that saturday
18:47:51 <planetmaker> :-D
18:48:08 <planetmaker> better bring your laptops then
18:48:17 <frosch123> i do not have one :p
18:48:28 <planetmaker> you have 6Mbit upload and 0.7mbit download ;-)
18:48:39 <Rubidium> frosch123: 30 revisions of (trivial) commits is easy
18:48:42 <Eddi|zuHause> well, it's 10 days, and 54 revisions, so we need about 5 revisions per day
18:49:24 <planetmaker> one is always translator. So 4 "real" ones
18:49:45 <Eddi|zuHause> we could have 10 scripted commits, and make a countdown like on silvester ;)
18:49:51 <SmatZ> :-)
18:49:53 <Rubidium> planetmaker: we don't need 6Mbit upstream, and shared with 30 people and it's still enough
18:49:55 <planetmaker> :-P
18:49:57 <frosch123> we could break regression a few times
18:50:13 <Rubidium> frosch123: or just add a few doxygen comments :)
18:50:30 <planetmaker> Rubidium: I didn't actually test it yet whether the speed actually is true ;-)
18:50:36 <frosch123> yeah, fs#3870 is good for two documentation commits
18:51:01 <Rubidium> and 2 or 3 commits for a release
18:52:27 <Rubidium> so that's 15 commits, leaves only 39 in ~10 days
18:52:29 <planetmaker> transfer speed seems about right though according to http://www.performance.fh-trier.de/
18:52:50 <Rubidium> planetmaker: upload is really 10 times as high as download?
18:53:02 <planetmaker> uhm... vice versa ;-)
18:54:32 <Rubidium> oh, that's plenty then :)

19:50:40 <frosch123> majority
19:51:12 <Eddi|zuHause> should probably be a little less than 50-50... because having a list with >10 exceptions is kinda useless...
19:54:58 *** theholyduck has quit IRC
20:02:45 <Eddi|zuHause> suggestion: do not list more than 7 exceptions [7 is a magical number for "parallelisation" in the brain]
20:06:04 <Rubidium> countersuggestion: do not have more than 14 cargos
20:06:30 <Eddi|zuHause> also, it might be useful to put the "except" in black, to visually distinguish it from the cargos

20:16:45 <planetmaker> and of course existing airports count
20:16:51 <planetmaker> so it might be bad luck for you.
