01:02:59 * TruePikachu wonders why the forum can't just be set to read-only during backup
01:04:48 <TruePikachu> If anyone here has played Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, I'm actually going to make the railway system in OpenTTD to test efficiency of the rail layout
01:05:44 <TruePikachu> If you haven't, it basically is like a city layout with lots of different tracks to the same destination, and is generally very unrealistic
01:06:42 <TruePikachu> There actually is a map on GameFAQS, but I will be recreating the slopes as well, and some cargo chains will be changed (i.e Dark Ore goes to the Gorons, which goes to IDK where yet)
01:07:29 * TruePikachu wonders how to make trains consistantly ignore signals to make the 'bomb trains'
01:08:00 <TruePikachu> If anyone here has any idea about what I'm talking about, and would like to help, just say so
01:09:25 <TruePikachu> Oh, and I just remembered to write up a proposal for a new signal type which will improve throughput on single, bidirectional lines

03:32:39 <DDR> Hi. In 1.0.3, does anyone know how the train's 'conditional jump order' works... or even what it's suppose to do?

03:43:45 <DDR> Thanks. I looked under the orders page.

10:47:20 *** KenjiE20 has joined #openttd
10:49:11 <Wolf01> do you know if is possible to create a MSSQL database directly from the MSVC2005?
10:58:19 *** Adambean has quit IRC
10:58:24 <Alberth> I only know about unix.
10:59:26 <Rubidium> Wolf01: given it's Microsoft software I see no reason why it can't. After all, Word is the tool you should use to edit html.
10:59:29 <Alberth> but usually there is an API to program against with data bases
10:59:41 *** Mazur has quit IRC
11:00:22 <Wolf01> I found how to do it, its not so complicate, just add a new database after connecting to an existing database
11:00:35 *** Mazur has joined #openttd
11:02:02 <Wolf01> I'm glad to see that varchar(10) has the same little bug of SSMS
11:02:20 <Wolf01> if you input varchar(10) it reverts to varchar(50)
11:02:26 <Wolf01> only with that value
11:02:51 <Wolf01> and varchar(10) is the value I use often :D

11:37:27 *** BCMM has joined #openttd
11:37:57 <BCMM> i have a station with path signalling for the entry
11:38:23 <BCMM> is it possible to prevent trains who's exit is blocked going backwards out of the station and trying to exit via another platform?
11:39:05 <Alberth> with a roro station? no, afaik
11:39:42 <Alberth> can the train not wait a bit?
11:40:00 <Alberth> a picture would help in the discussion, I think
11:40:52 *** robotboy has quit IRC
11:45:56 <BCMM> Alberth: what does RoRo mean? not a terminus?
11:46:22 <Alberth> it means roll-on-roll-off, trains enter at one side, and exit at the other
11:48:03 <Eddi|zuHause> you need to turn off reversing at red signals
11:48:10 <Eddi|zuHause> by setting the wait time to 255
11:48:24 <Eddi|zuHause> go to the console and type "list_settings pf.wait"
11:48:36 <BCMM> ah, thanks
11:48:48 <Eddi|zuHause> those three settings there need to be set to 255
11:49:03 <BCMM> Eddi|zuHause: so you can configure how long a train has to wait at a red signal before it gets bored and tries reversing?
11:49:15 <Eddi|zuHause> yes
11:49:19 <Eddi|zuHause> that's what this is
11:49:29 <Eddi|zuHause> 255 means never
11:50:06 *** Vitus has joined #openttd
11:50:10 <BCMM> that's useful
11:50:13 * SpComb ponders starting a new game of OpenTTD
11:50:37 <BCMM> because queuing trains will do it to, and it just wastes time if the signal goes green while they're bouncing around
11:51:30 <planetmaker> you can change it on a running game
11:51:55 <planetmaker> in the console you can change those settings
11:52:04 <planetmaker> set <settingname> <value>
11:52:07 <Alberth> hmm, this is a case that a pf will not recognize, I think
11:52:12 <Eddi|zuHause> since the widespread use of one-way signals, this setting has kinda lost its sense
11:52:28 <BCMM> how does reliability work?
11:52:46 <Eddi|zuHause> it has no effect if you disable breakdowns ;)
11:52:52 <BCMM> i mean, a new model is initially unreliable, then gets more reliable, then gets worse, right?
11:53:01 <Alberth> vehicles break down more often with lower reliability, unless you have disabled breakdowns
11:53:10 <SpComb> prototypes, iirc
11:53:12 <BCMM> i mean change in max. reliability over time
11:53:16 <Eddi|zuHause> suggestion: low reliability should increase running costs
11:53:39 <BCMM> so do most people turn breakdowns of?f
11:53:41 <BCMM> so do most people turn breakdowns off?
11:53:43 <SpComb> yes
11:53:46 <SpComb> anyone sane
11:53:59 <Alberth> thank you SpComb :)
11:54:00 <Eddi|zuHause> BCMM: it starts low, increases during the prototype phase, stays fairly constant, and reduces when the model life expires
11:54:06 <BCMM> ah
11:54:33 <BCMM> SpComb: so most people consider it to be annoying, rather than adding a challange?
11:54:54 <Alberth> many people want to have very crowded beautifully running tracks
11:55:09 <Alberth> I like the challenge instead :)
11:55:40 <Eddi|zuHause> BCMM: i don't know about "most", but a lot of people think like that...
11:55:54 <Alberth> the main trouble is that breakdowns have a bit too much impact
11:56:10 <SpComb> it might be worth playing with if you used service-at-depot orders and the breakdown game mechanic wasn't so clumsy
11:56:38 <Eddi|zuHause> there was an improved breakdowns patch
11:56:46 <BCMM> what changes did it make?
11:57:00 <BCMM> hmmm, i'm being stupid and can't find the option to disable breakdowns
11:57:10 <Alberth> game options
11:57:12 <Eddi|zuHause> it diversified the breakdowns, so you could have temporary reduce of power or max speed
11:57:20 <Eddi|zuHause> not always a full stop
11:57:29 <Eddi|zuHause> no
11:57:35 <Eddi|zuHause> it's in difficulty
11:57:47 <BCMM> if you've disable breakdowns, does that mean you can just carry on using expired trains forever?
11:57:55 <Alberth> it's good you are here Eddi|zuHause :)
11:58:30 <Alberth> yes
11:58:32 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: rubidium * r20497 /trunk/src/ (network/network.cpp openttd.cpp): -Fix [FS#3960]: non-dedicated servers failing to load a game caused the introgame to be the server's game causing desyncs when people tried to join
11:58:56 <BCMM> Alberth: no, it's in difficulty settings
11:58:57 <BCMM> found it
11:59:38 <Alberth> yes, Eddi said it already, sorry for the confusion
12:00:16 <BCMM> np, thanks
12:01:47 <BCMM> i think i'll keep breakdowns off
12:02:01 <BCMM> it seems to become the limiting factor for how much traffic you can put through a station
12:03:31 <Alberth> it makes building infra structure quite more difficult indeed
12:05:50 <BCMM> well, it seems to me that with more than about four platforms, a station is always blocked by stuff breaking down while entering/exiting
12:07:39 *** perk11 has joined #openttd
12:08:54 *** TomyLobo has quit IRC
12:10:09 <Ammler> BCMM: just be sure a incomming train never blocks a leaving one
12:10:26 <Ammler> every plattform should have its own entry and exit line
12:10:45 <Alberth> that seems quite a large amount, do you have a picture?
12:11:59 <Alberth> I always build a depot at every station
12:12:32 <Ammler> Alberth: like a buffer?
12:12:50 <Alberth> for servicing
12:13:31 <Alberth> I don't like the use of depots as buffers :)

12:16:28 <SpComb> no, you must play according to my rules
12:16:52 <Rubidium> noone can
12:17:05 <BCMM> Alberth: where do people usually put pics?
12:17:36 <Rubidium> they used to put them in a box or photoalbum
12:17:44 <Rubidium> but now... :)
12:17:48 <Alberth> at an image paste, eg http://imagebin.ca/ (although I have not tried that one yet)
12:18:07 <Alberth> or at the tt-forums :)
12:18:39 <BCMM> Alberth: and were you asking me for a screenshot?
12:18:45 <Ammler> img.openttdcoop.org
12:19:11 <Alberth> http://imagehost.org/
12:19:35 <planetmaker> dropbox.com
12:19:51 <Alberth> yeah, that is so much easier to discuss station layout
12:20:09 <BCMM> if there isn't a convention here, i guess i'll use omploader, since it has a nice script for uploading things
12:26:13 <BCMM> Alberth: http://omploader.org/vNTh4eg
12:26:53 <BCMM> i have fixed it a bit by making the far end of the exit tunnels (not shown) less likely to clog
12:27:11 <BCMM> and either one of turning off breakdowns or turning off reversing at lights fixes it completely
12:28:04 <Wolf01> mmmh stupid database collation...
12:29:31 <Alberth> you have signals directly after the station?
12:30:04 <Wolf01> which collation should I use to save "♂" chars in a database? LATIN1_CI_AI does not seem to recognise them ad displays "?"
12:30:31 <Rubidium> utf8 is a safe bet
12:30:36 <BCMM> Alberth: aren't those needed so that another train can enter a platform as soon as the previous train is in the tunnel?
12:30:58 <BCMM> Alberth: or is that not the case with path signals?
12:31:14 <Alberth> BCMM: yes, but I cannot clearly see it in the picture
12:31:23 <Alberth> (ie you need them)
12:31:30 <BCMM> oh i see
12:31:42 <BCMM> yeah, there's a row of unidirectional block signals there
12:33:00 <Alberth> I must try such a setup once :)
12:33:12 <BCMM> it's supposed to be an experiment into having a high-traffic station without taking up too much space
12:33:25 *** robotboy has joined #openttd
12:33:52 <BCMM> i'm playing with that because i've noticed that citybuilder players always seem to end up needed to transfer at stations outside the city and move stuff in on road vehicles
12:33:58 <Alberth> lowering the station one level would eliminate the need for all the hills, but that may not a problem
12:34:17 <SpComb> screenshots go to projects.qmsk.net/pngtile/screenshots/ :p
12:34:39 <BCMM> Alberth: yeah, i've considered that
12:35:06 <BCMM> the main reason it isn't is that at the point in the game where you can start such a station (before the city has grown up around it), you need to keep costs down
12:35:19 <Alberth> SpComb that site doesn't do anything without scripts
12:35:26 <SpComb> sure
12:37:03 <SpComb> hmm... OpenTTD fails at playing my gm/ music
12:37:16 <SpComb> just loops through the tracks ad infinitum
12:37:59 <SpComb> the md5sums match
12:38:09 <SpComb> from orig_win.obm
12:38:50 <SpComb> what do I need for MIDI on debian/ubuntu?
12:38:55 <frosch123> timidy
12:39:01 <BCMM> Alberth: i've lowered the station, and that allows the road bridges to be flat, which i like
12:39:41 <Alberth> nice
12:39:54 <SpComb> frosch123: is there a lib package for it, or just the timidity runtime package?
12:40:26 <BCMM> it wasn't slowing down the trains a great deal though, as far as i know
12:40:53 *** r0b0tb0y has quit IRC
12:41:06 <frosch123> i guess both work some way, but i do not know, never use music myself :)
12:41:11 <BCMM> the way to make it affordable is to start it out as a terminus, without tunnels, and with one end up against the city (with land reserved for tunnels later in the game when there is more money and traffic
12:41:50 <Rubidium> SpComb: the binary; the library isn't used by default
12:42:58 <Alberth> how a train reacts to a hill depends on the train model and what you carry, and some settings on steepness and freight weight multiplying
12:43:19 <Alberth> BCMM: yeah, you have to plan ahead with cities
12:43:39 <Alberth> but passengers are not that heavy :)
12:43:45 <SpComb> bleh, MIDI is a little too difficult
12:44:17 <SpComb> after installing timidity the tracks appear to play, but there's no actual music output
12:44:28 <SpComb> presumeably some ubuntu/pulseaudio/timidity configuration issue..
12:44:41 <Rubidium> yeah, that's quite likely
12:45:10 <SpComb> this kind of stuff should be instant-satisfaction :/
12:46:11 <Rubidium> SpComb: blame Ubuntu for diverging from the choices made by the party they "leech" the vast majority of packages from
12:46:52 *** Illegal_Alien has joined #openttd
12:47:10 <Rubidium> the Debian maintainer generally doesn't get the bug reports from Ubuntu and in Ubuntu the package is "community managed"... so it's a big mess
12:47:27 <BCMM> you mean randomly patching stuff that in ways that upstream doesn't agree with?
12:48:32 <BCMM> Alberth: well, it's supposed to move goods as well
12:48:38 <Alberth> upstream never gets the patches :)
12:48:43 <BCMM> Alberth: and the citybuilder servers i've used have a 5x multiplier
12:48:45 <Rubidium> BCMM: not specifically
12:49:21 <BCMM> Alberth: my goal is to be able to afford a station like that in citybuilder, and never have to mess around with transfers and road vehicles for the final leg, which reduces revenue
12:49:53 <Rubidium> BCMM: more like changing the default in one package and magically believing that it doesn't backfire anywhere
12:49:58 <SpComb> very nice
12:50:10 <SpComb> I have both analogue 5.1 output, and digital S/PDIF output
12:50:21 <BCMM> in this configuration, it moves about 1000 units of food and water per month, plus a lot of passengers, without clogging up
12:50:25 <Rubidium> BCMM: it took over three releases before they got SDL + PA fixed even though the fix is really simple
12:50:28 <SpComb> gnome/pulseaudio/alsa is configured to output on the digital output
12:50:38 <SpComb> but the timidity midi stuff goes to the analogue output
12:50:42 <SpComb> only

12:51:29 <Ammler> oh,
12:51:38 <Ammler> next time I scroll down :-P
12:51:43 <SpComb> and so OpenTTD's effects sounds go to optical out, and the MIDI music goes to analogue out
12:51:58 <SpComb> *facepalm*

13:26:37 <SpComb> is it possible to configure the hold-shift-to-fastforward behaviour?
13:29:58 <Rubidium> yes
13:30:18 <Rubidium> though AFAIK only via configure
13:32:31 <SpComb> although hmm, according to the wiki, tab is supposed to fast-forward, but for me, tab does nothing, but shift fastforwards? :/
13:32:55 <Rubidium> SpComb: you did ./configure --enable-debug
13:33:23 * SpComb confused
13:33:32 *** r0b0tb0y has joined #openttd
13:33:48 <Rubidium> which changes that behaviour; for some reason alt-tab did/does? keep pressed when alt-tabbing out of OpenTTD, which annoyed early devs
13:34:27 <SpComb> a little obscure
13:34:32 <Rubidium> I also seem to remember that tab is a single keystroke in OpenTTD whereas shift is a "state" making it easier to control how long the fast forward should take, i.e. making debugging easier
13:35:51 <glx> isn't it configurable via openttd.cfg now ?
13:36:07 <Rubidium> glx: doubtful
13:36:54 <Rubidium> it's pretty much hardcoded in each of the video drivers
13:37:38 <Alberth> grep -i with 'ff', 'forw', or 'fast' did not give a hit
13:38:27 *** fonsinchen has joined #openttd
13:38:59 <Rubidium> Alberth: try src/video/*
13:39:04 <glx> indeed it's not configurable

17:45:32 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: turkish - 28 changes by niw3
17:46:50 <enr1x> or perhaps can I link to those binaries on the wiki?
17:47:25 <Rubidium> aren't there already like 5 people doing that?
17:47:46 <Eddi|zuHause> there are already several binaries around, how do you think yours are better than theirs?
17:48:00 <Wolf01> you need an "official" maintainer
17:49:00 <enr1x> Eddi|zuHause: i just want to contribute a bit, maybe if there are some OS X binaries around there will be more OpenTTD players...
17:49:29 <enr1x> if there are like 5 people doing that, I don't know about them, but it would be great to have binaries around...
17:49:33 <Ammler> maybe post your binaries/download links on the tt-forums thread
17:49:39 <enr1x> compiling doesn't take so much time
17:49:44 <enr1x> thanks for the suggestion Ammler
17:49:48 <Eddi|zuHause> enr1x: we have plenty of players, what we lack is a maintainer for OS X
17:50:20 <Ammler> afaik the problem with osx is that every single minor version needs its own binary
17:50:23 <enr1x> Eddi|zuHause: I wish my knowledge about compiling/debugging on OS X would be on par with the other systems, but I am afraid I am just an user, and occasional compiler
17:50:41 <enr1x> but as I said, I would be happy to contribute and learn
17:51:06 <Eddi|zuHause> enr1x: the bugtracker is full of OS X bugs... you are free to try any of them...
17:51:56 <enr1x> Eddi|zuHause: I don't think you can debug without having C++ knowledge, right?
17:52:12 <Ammler> you could learn to
17:52:35 <Eddi|zuHause> enr1x: the main problem is knowing the OS X api... the language skills needed are minor
17:52:47 <Ammler> testing and reporting is also needed
17:53:22 <enr1x> well, I come from linux background, i was used to playing OpenTTD on an iBook G4 with Arch Linux...
17:53:56 <enr1x> and I don't know anything about the OS X API. It's good that ottd compiles just great on these systems...
17:54:18 <Alberth> for as long as it lasts
17:54:38 <enr1x> I guess it wold be better to keep those binaries for me, then... but if i can help with bugtracking, i'll do that
17:55:17 <Alberth> at some point the compilation, or some driver will fail, and we don't know how to fix it
17:55:19 <Ammler> as said, you could the forums, there are already osx binary threads, maybe your version is missing
17:55:24 <Ammler> check*
17:55:52 <Alberth> enr1x: we need a bug solver instead
17:56:54 <enr1x> Alberth: I am afraid I don't have enough knowledge to solve bugs, but I will try to reproduce some when I have some time, and report on the bug tracker.
17:56:58 <Eddi|zuHause> enr1x: compiling for yourself isn't difficult, but compiling for other people is several magnitudes higher
17:58:06 <planetmaker> very much indeed
17:58:23 <enr1x> well, thanks a lot for your assistance everyone, will take note of this, and help when i can
17:59:06 <planetmaker> always welcome :-)
17:59:15 <enr1x> thanks, now let's get back to work ;)

18:15:42 <Ammler> andythenorth: that proves it, you need to compile it self and you can't share it as most probably nobody else could use it :-)
18:16:59 <Ammler> but luckily compiling on osx is almost as easy as on unix
18:17:49 <andythenorth> planetmaker: what happens if I send you my OS X binary? Does it work?
18:19:04 <Rubidium> andythenorth: no, it wouldn't work for me
18:19:39 <andythenorth> Rubidium: and which minor version of OS X are *you* using? :P
18:19:39 <Ammler> andythenorth: that is my experience I got from the max osx user on #openttdcoop PublicServer
18:20:04 <Ammler> we gave up sharing osx bins
18:20:47 <Rubidium> andythenorth: 3 ofcourse
18:21:18 <Ammler> I guess, even that isn't enough
18:21:31 <Ammler> you also need to share the libs?
18:22:22 <andythenorth> Rubidium: for PPC?
18:22:50 <Rubidium> ofcourse... it's the only version that works emulated with OpenTTD

19:06:03 <Joe_Camel> hi again, i got dropped...Anyway, is there a way to enable multiple engine sets in a game, without selling all my vehicles?
19:06:03 *** avdg has quit IRC
19:06:16 *** avdg has joined #openttd
19:08:19 <Alberth> you cannot change newgrfs in a running game without risking a crash
19:09:03 <Alberth> ie to add or remove any newgrf, you need to start a new game
19:09:46 <Alberth> (or rather the other way around, change the newgrfs in the main menu, then start a new game :)
19:10:10 <Joe_Camel> i added multiple already without problems, thats ok. My question is, is there any way to enable multiple engine sets, like, modifying the saved game...
19:10:25 <Joe_Camel> but i take that no such method exists
19:11:52 <Alberth> that is not possible indeed

19:55:47 <TruePikachu|Konsole> Okay, a direct link to the big trainlength sorter is http://www.tt-forums.net/download/file.php?id=120602 , and it is hard for me to identify the different signal types
19:56:56 <TruePikachu|Konsole> The smaller one from a Co-op game is inside http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=835276#p835276 , which is hard to identify some signals, and the labels are distracting
19:56:59 <Eddi|zuHause> TruePikachu|Konsole: there are 4 kinds of block signals. no bar, yellow horizontal bar, white vertical bar, and yellow vertical bar [from left to right in the signal gui]
19:57:10 <TruePikachu|Konsole> Eddi|zuHause: You forgot PBS
19:57:23 <Eddi|zuHause> TruePikachu|Konsole: PBS signals are no block signals
19:57:29 <TruePikachu|Konsole> I definitly see a one-way PBS, and possibly a collection of 2 way PSB
19:57:35 <TruePikachu|Konsole> *PBS
19:58:39 <Eddi|zuHause> yes, so what is the problem?

20:00:17 <Eddi|zuHause> what's the problem there? the horizontal bars appear shorter than the vertical bars. or do you have trouble with white/yellow?
20:00:39 <TruePikachu|Konsole> The fence is yellow, and the mag-lev track is grey
20:00:59 <TruePikachu|Konsole> It makes it much harder
20:01:18 <TruePikachu|Konsole> (for me at least). It's strange, I'm actually good at detecting color differences
20:01:51 <Eddi|zuHause> the ones behind the fence are all plain signals

20:05:20 <TruePikachu> And rarely right now use priority merges
20:05:46 <TruePikachu> So spacing isn't really a problem
20:06:39 <TruePikachu> Sorting pax from freight is the problem
20:07:12 <TruePikachu> My pax are always at or less than 5 tiles, freight is usually more than 5
20:07:37 <TruePikachu> And waypoints look messy (with their signs all over the place)
20:07:49 <Eddi|zuHause> you can turn off waypoint signs
20:08:02 <TruePikachu> But it turns off all other signs IIRC
20:08:21 <Eddi|zuHause> no, there are two separate settings [at least there used to be]
20:08:48 <TruePikachu> Well, in any case, the waypoints no longer look connected if they are ajacent
20:09:01 <TruePikachu> (and are technically the same waypoint)
20:09:21 <TruePikachu> There was a bug report or forum thread about this at one point
20:09:30 <Eddi|zuHause> yes, that changed. i don't like it either
20:10:03 <TruePikachu> There should be an option for it. Anyway, what's the point of all those signal boxes?
20:10:08 <Eddi|zuHause> it has technical reasons
20:10:25 <TruePikachu> Can you suggest a good Waypoint NewGRF?
20:10:50 <Eddi|zuHause> i slways use the ones from newstations
20:11:07 <TruePikachu> Is it on BaNaNaS?
20:11:39 <Eddi|zuHause> no, it's too old for that, and the author has not bothered to put it up

20:49:39 <TruePikachu> Just a thought that I have
20:50:25 <TruePikachu> Also, I have a new signal idea
20:51:36 <TruePikachu> You know how, when using bidirectional signals on one-track track, deadlocks can occur?
20:52:50 *** Alberth has left #openttd
20:53:08 <TruePikachu> The new signal will be red IF the block ahead is occupied OR if a train behind the signal, up to the first splitting junction, is heading towards the signal (i.e. going to pass from behind)
20:54:11 <TruePikachu> This way, you can have e.g. a 2 track mainline that merges to 1 track and later splits to 2 tracks again, with multiple blocks on the 1-track, without deadlocks
20:55:20 <TruePikachu> It can be a standard block signal with a circle under it (i.e. a gradient plate)
20:55:58 <TruePikachu> However, with the way signal NewGRFs are, it may not be possible to add a new signal type
20:56:01 <planetmaker> <TruePikachu> Has anyone been working on making it so that all TTDPatch NewGRFs work in OpenTTD? <-- that never occured to anyone as a good idea before
20:56:10 <TruePikachu> planetmaker: why?
20:58:40 <frosch123> hmm, weirdo is not such a bad name
21:00:32 <planetmaker> TruePikachu, OpenTTD != TTDPatch. That's why
21:01:00 <planetmaker> And it would mean to ignore a NewGRF's which to work differently on TTDPatch and OpenTTD

21:07:23 <TruePikachu> EXCEPT years that are a multiple of 100
21:07:32 <TruePikachu> UNLESS the year is also a multiple of 400
21:08:49 <VVG> so?
21:08:59 <TruePikachu> Is that the way OpenTTD does leap years?
21:09:12 <TruePikachu> Or does it just have every 4th year be a leap year?
21:09:15 <VVG> no idea, check the code for that

21:34:14 <Vitus> TruePikachu: Yes, I'm not company :P
21:34:51 <planetmaker> lool :-)
21:35:01 <Vitus> Just a thing: It might be useful if shading was triggered by wheel up and restoring window by wheel down, that might help in this case
21:35:16 <planetmaker> so... why do you, TruePikachu request a closure of avd's bug report?
21:35:19 <Vitus> And it make sense, also
21:35:27 <Vitus> *makes
21:37:44 <avdg> questions? :p
21:38:18 <planetmaker> avdg, I think that's not you, or is it? FS 4011?
21:38:24 <avdg> yeah
21:38:30 <avdg> misspelled my nick :p
21:38:35 <planetmaker> you're called there avdg, too... afair ;-)
21:38:43 <planetmaker> is it you? Oh
21:38:50 <avdg> yeah, donno
21:39:01 <avdg> something went wrong, but I can't remember how
21:39:09 <Vitus> You forgot to type "g"
21:39:14 <avdg> :-)
21:39:16 <planetmaker> ^ :-P
21:39:20 <avdg> and avdg is occupied
21:39:25 <TruePikachu> Well, like I said, it's the driver sending scroll signals too rapidly
21:39:52 <avdg> sad feature of osx :/
21:40:08 <TruePikachu> ^^^ that OS is the other problem :D
21:40:21 <TruePikachu> Apple causes too many problems for me to be useful
21:40:22 <avdg> since the driver update, we've got a faster scroll :p
21:40:29 *** DDR has quit IRC
21:40:44 <Vitus> TruePikachu: What do you think about the suggestion? That might work, I think.
21:41:08 <TruePikachu> About reducing the speed? It most likely would work
21:41:08 <avdg> but touchpath is the feature, donno
21:41:13 <planetmaker> TruePikachu, still, I consider it quite thick that you request closure of other people's problems
21:41:27 <TruePikachu> Oh, well I didn't understand how the flyspray worked
21:41:33 <avdg> s/feature/future
21:41:35 <Vitus> Nah, I'm thinking about having shade on wheel up and unshade on wheel down
21:41:44 <planetmaker> Especially as there IS something which can be done: handling of driver information
21:41:47 <TruePikachu> Oh, that could work
21:42:13 <TruePikachu> Just make sure to set up an option in the Advanced Settings to change the functionality
21:43:16 <avdg> well, I really have to learn cpp I guess
21:43:18 <Vitus> Well, I don't think that's needed, but that's just my opinion. You might be right.
21:43:33 <TruePikachu> Someone who I got interested in OpenTTD is designing a 'kiosk' of the game with a touchscreen. Double-tap does right mouse button, triple-tap does scroll up
21:43:42 <planetmaker> Vitus, sounds better indeed
21:44:22 <avdg> the scroll _is_ a problem with touchscreen, indeed :/
21:44:23 <planetmaker> Why would I translate scrolling to a tripple click?
21:44:26 <TruePikachu> The option will be mandatory to prevent the person from having me re-write the driver software for the touchscreen
21:44:34 <planetmaker> a touchpad recognizes scrolling easily
21:44:45 <planetmaker> And the usual guesture for that is two fingers in parallel
21:45:02 <Wolf01> and there's always the left click scroll
21:45:09 <TruePikachu> No, they are using a touch screen (one similar to the DS bottom screen) on top of the monitor
21:45:20 <TruePikachu> It can only detect the median touch point
21:45:32 <TruePikachu> SIngle tap is for regular clicking
21:45:45 <TruePikachu> Double tap is for the right mouse button, for the tooltips
21:45:53 <planetmaker> not worth. Multitouch is the future
21:46:13 <TruePikachu> Triple tap is scroll up so you can triple-tap the title bar to shade, or the gameplay area to zoom in
21:46:23 <Vitus> I somehow forgot that GUI settings do not have to be stored in savegame, then why not :P
21:46:33 <Wolf01> I can use my bamboo fun tablet easily with ottd
21:46:39 <TruePikachu> They got a big old touchpad for cheap, so I have to design an interface driver for it
21:47:30 <TruePikachu> It can not detect standard 'multiple finger' gestures
21:47:52 <TruePikachu> It can only return x/y of touch when it is touched
21:47:58 <Vitus> TruePikachu: I'll add this idea to the task, you can them comment on the reasons for GUI settings :)
21:48:07 <TruePikachu> K.
21:48:24 <TruePikachu> Oh, and I'll post pics of the kiosk if they ever finish with building it
21:48:27 <Wolf01> TruePikachu, what's the problem with the left click scrolling?
21:48:39 <TruePikachu> Wolf01: ??? what do you mean?
21:49:06 <Wolf01> there's an advanced option to scroll the map with the left mouse button
21:49:19 <TruePikachu> Yeah, there is no problem there
21:49:35 <TruePikachu> The triple tap is like scrolling up the scroll wheel
21:49:53 <TruePikachu> It is equal to either zooming in or shading a window
21:50:01 <TruePikachu> *or unshading
21:51:03 <TruePikachu> But I digress
21:51:12 <Wolf01> imho, useless, the scrollwheel has been added because now every mouse have a scrollwheel, but all the actions are possible without it
21:51:38 <Wolf01> you shouldn't lose your mind on details like this
21:51:53 <avdg> indeed
21:51:56 <Vitus> TruePikachu: Comment added, feel free to add yours :)
21:53:16 <avdg> vitus: from where do you get these good ideas :p
21:53:21 <VVG> Anyone played with Improved timetables here? Was there an option of restarting a timetable to a preset start date if vehicle, after running through a cycle, arrived at first order before the start date? Or is it me misundertood something?
21:53:36 <Vitus> avdg: It's a secret :)
21:55:30 <Eddi|zuHause> VVG: i don't remember that option
21:56:00 <TruePikachu> VVG: If it's a patch, then no, and I don't compile from source
21:56:08 <Eddi|zuHause> VVG: i remember that the autoseparation had problems when the order of the vehicles was mixed up due to overtaking
21:56:28 * TruePikachu wishes that that patch was merged to trunk, though

22:46:53 <TruePikachu> Oh, nice
22:46:58 * avdg wonders who is using vim
22:47:01 <avdg> I am
22:47:05 * TruePikachu is using Vim
22:47:05 <planetmaker> windoze users don't know that, of course. Nor linux clicky-bunty users ;-)
22:47:12 * planetmaker uses it, too
22:47:18 <planetmaker> wait, you use it?
22:47:22 <TruePikachu> I actually rarely use a replace statement
22:47:25 <planetmaker> Then... you should damn well know

22:48:05 *** ptr_ has quit IRC

22:48:54 <planetmaker> avdg, assertion failed at ... ;-)
22:48:54 * Rubidium used to use vim, but now it's called cif
22:49:03 <TruePikachu> Oh, I'll look into :x
22:49:05 <avdg> no assert needed :)
22:49:12 * TruePikachu uses gVim on occassion
22:49:29 <planetmaker> SpComb, but then I know the difference to !q or !w. One thing less to remember ;-)
22:49:39 <avdg> hmm
22:49:54 <avdg> does feel a bit strange
22:50:23 <avdg> because it only works if you move the scroll up or down and not the other direction
22:50:38 <TruePikachu> In vim, use :help 42
22:50:39 <avdg> well, I'll post the patch

22:54:51 <TruePikachu> Since when do patches have 33 pages of spam?
22:55:10 <avdg> figural
22:55:23 <TruePikachu> I know, it's a habit...
22:55:32 <TruePikachu> It's like:
22:55:47 <TruePikachu> #include <io.h>
22:55:54 <TruePikachu> /* Om nom nom nom */
22:56:04 <avdg> :/ svn diff
22:56:07 <Eddi|zuHause> avdg: better than to have 33 pages of spam on the thread list

22:56:47 <avdg> k, it works
22:56:50 <TruePikachu> Eddi|zuHause: Better to have 33 pages of spam be deleted :D
22:57:13 <Eddi|zuHause> avdg: it's basically a "honeypot" thread to fetch out most of the clueless people

23:01:56 <ccfreak2k> Rubidium, driving test.
23:01:57 <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: those are the people who shout the loudest at how bad other people are driving
23:01:58 <avdg> go left till you cant go left, switch to right, etc...
23:02:33 <TruePikachu> O_o @ map generator
23:02:46 <TruePikachu> I got an awsome starting position
23:02:48 <VVG> consequences force most to actually follow some base instrusctions, don't they?
23:03:07 <Rubidium> on the other hand... having... following instructions without thinking isn't good either; going to the south of France following the signs "Paris" and ending up in the centre of Paris :)
23:03:09 <avdg> ok patch online
23:03:44 <glx> Rubidium: actually these signs are useful for me ;)
23:03:50 <TruePikachu> 1 town, 1 city near each other, both using 3x3 tile blocks (i.e. bigger blocks), alignment almost perfect
23:04:12 <TruePikachu> One town at upper left of area, other city at lower left
23:04:45 <TruePikachu> The direct line between them has alignment for the grids
23:04:57 <TruePikachu> The other direction is misaligned by 2
23:05:05 <planetmaker> <Eddi|zuHause> i have my doubts "clicky-bunty" translates to what you want it to ;) <-- that's untranslatable ;-)
23:05:08 <TruePikachu> Which looks nice
23:06:22 <Rubidium> it's actually a surprisingly often used word
23:06:35 <Rubidium> and... it works fine in German as well
23:06:47 <Rubidium> "Weil die Webdesigner von MSN offenbar Routine in Clicky-Bunty haben, aber nicht wirklich Ahnung von guter, zweckmäßiger Informationsdarbietu​ng. ..."
23:06:50 <planetmaker> "clicky-bunty"?
23:06:58 <TruePikachu> Ubuntu, I think
23:06:59 <planetmaker> I'd not expect it to work in English
23:07:09 <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: well, yes, it makes perfect sense in german ;)
23:07:27 <TruePikachu> Translate it from German to English
23:07:38 <planetmaker> but like "clicky-colourfully" doesn't sound nice ;-)
23:07:41 <TruePikachu> What is the literal translation?
23:07:53 <planetmaker> and it's not a good translation either
23:08:05 <planetmaker> As it plays with words, with rhyme and is all non-words
23:08:08 <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: although i would write it with -i at the end
23:08:11 *** KritiK has quit IRC

23:08:18 <VVG> i think i'll give up timetabling until something like virtual time from improved timetables makes it into trunk :(

23:09:10 <TruePikachu> 11 x%=0
23:09:20 <TruePikachu> 12 if x%=0 goto 10
23:09:27 <Rubidium> I've got a mercurial queue from the original author
23:09:31 <TruePikachu> 13 <some other code>
23:09:32 <avdg> :p <3 basic
23:09:37 <VVG> that's not an incentive enough to learn coding :p
23:09:47 <TruePikachu> Oh, I put on line numbers
23:10:24 <TruePikachu> They literally set x to 0 two lines in a row, then jumped to the beginning of the program if x equals 0
23:10:34 <Rubidium> #define someone VVG
23:10:39 <Rubidium> there... that should do the trick
23:10:49 <TruePikachu> ?
23:11:08 <VVG> there, i don't even get that
23:11:11 <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: i would love to do it, but the last time i tried, i made a total mess of the GUI code
23:11:58 <TruePikachu> What console command changes the start year for the command "newgame"?
23:12:01 <Eddi|zuHause> VVG: it replaces all future references to "someone" by "VVG"
23:12:12 <TruePikachu> Can someone answer?
23:12:30 <Eddi|zuHause> Can VVG answer?
23:12:34 <TruePikachu> ^^ yes
23:12:47 <TruePikachu> But seriously, how do I change the start year?
23:12:49 * VVG hides
23:12:56 <TruePikachu> Is someone hiding?
23:13:11 <VVG> #undef someone
23:13:14 <VVG> does that work?
23:13:16 <TruePikachu> no
23:13:31 <TruePikachu> At least, I don't think so...
23:13:36 <Eddi|zuHause> TruePikachu: if list_settings doesn't help you, i don't see any chance other than to edit the cfg and start
23:13:39 <TruePikachu> #define is a compiler command
23:13:49 <TruePikachu> or something
23:13:59 <TomyLobo> preprocessor*
23:14:01 <Eddi|zuHause> TruePikachu: no, it's called preprocessor
23:14:03 <TruePikachu> It is never interpreted
23:14:09 <TomyLobo> it is
23:14:12 <TruePikachu> (by the actual program)
23:14:13 <TomyLobo> by the preprocessor
23:14:23 <TomyLobo> you mean by the actual compiler
23:14:24 <Rubidium> Eddi|zuHause: but... you only need to change it to the new style. That can't be that much work for those few windows :)
23:14:29 <TomyLobo> ok, a compiler IS a program :)
23:14:33 <Eddi|zuHause> VVG: yes, that should work ;)
23:14:44 <TruePikachu> No, the #define statements do not go into the binary
23:15:04 <TomyLobo> binaries arent interpreted
23:15:09 <TomyLobo> they're run on the cpu
23:15:15 * TruePikachu facepalms
23:15:19 <TruePikachu> You know what I mean
23:15:22 <TomyLobo> :)
23:15:35 <TomyLobo> of course i do :)
23:15:36 <Eddi|zuHause> TomyLobo: the CPU is an interpreter (of machine language)
23:15:41 <TruePikachu> Yes
23:15:54 <planetmaker> if you don't say what you mean, you'll never mean what you say.
23:16:01 <planetmaker> It especially fails when splitting hairs
23:16:10 <TruePikachu> And funny things happen when I make my calculator execute the bytecodes CD 95 9D
23:16:37 <TruePikachu> That means, when written in z80 ASM, "CALL ProgramStart:"
23:16:39 *** Grelouk has joined #openttd
23:16:46 <TomyLobo> why does your calculator have a bytecode?
23:16:49 <TruePikachu> It stack overflows and RAM clears
23:17:09 <TomyLobo> oh, you mean machine code and a ti calc
23:17:12 <TruePikachu> TomyLobo: Because it is programmable, it is a TI-84+SE
23:17:14 <TruePikachu> Yes
23:17:17 <TomyLobo> thought you were talking about a program :)
23:17:21 <TruePikachu> It is
23:17:29 <TomyLobo> i mean a calculator program
23:17:31 <TruePikachu> On a TI-83
23:17:36 <TruePikachu> It is
23:18:00 <TomyLobo> and yeah, using CALL once per cycle tends to fill up the stack pretty quickly :)
23:18:03 <TomyLobo> not surprising
23:18:04 <TruePikachu> Make a BASIC program prgmAA with contents ":AsmPrgm:CD959d"
23:18:16 <TruePikachu> If you use C3 instead, it jumps
23:18:37 <TruePikachu> (step 2) Execute Asm(prgmAA)
23:19:01 <TruePikachu> If you have it jump, it freezes, and you have to battery pull, which clears RAM as well :)
23:19:41 <TomyLobo> not even pressing the on key works?
23:19:44 <TruePikachu> Nope
23:19:52 <TruePikachu> ON only breaks out of BASIC programs
23:19:53 <TomyLobo> ah right, that was only for basic programs
23:20:03 <TomyLobo> long time ^^
23:20:19 <TruePikachu> TomyLobo, have you ever been to #tcpa ?
23:20:32 <TruePikachu> (over on efnet)
23:20:55 <TomyLobo> last thing i did with my ti calc was hardwire an ac adaptor to it and use it as a terminal for a tool i wrote :)
23:21:16 <TruePikachu> What model?
23:21:37 <TomyLobo> to query some daoc-related database and issue some commands, like controlling winamp and things like that
23:21:49 <TomyLobo> ti-83
23:21:53 <TruePikachu> Plus?
23:21:56 <TomyLobo> no
23:22:01 <TruePikachu> Oh...
23:22:15 <TruePikachu> You have a BlackLink for it, do you not?
23:22:23 <TomyLobo> no idea
23:22:32 <TruePikachu> The computer cable
23:22:32 <TomyLobo> mine was grey but this is europe so it might be different
23:22:40 <TruePikachu> So yeah, you do
23:23:04 <TruePikachu> 2 sites: ticalc.org (I actually have an author profile over there)
23:23:09 <TruePikachu> and brandonw.net
23:23:10 <TomyLobo> otherwise i wouldnt have been able to pull off the terminal thing :)
23:23:13 <TomyLobo> nah
23:23:17 <TruePikachu> First is a database of programs
23:23:32 <TruePikachu> Second is the site of someone who does amazing things with a calc
23:23:39 <Rubidium> yay for ti83s gathering dust
23:23:42 <TomyLobo> lost interest
23:23:51 <TomyLobo> a couple of years ago
23:24:09 * TruePikachu is working on writing a program for his 84+SE which will automatically calculate timetables for OpenTTD
23:24:23 <TruePikachu> And the calc's OS is hacked
23:24:26 <Rubidium> what a waste of money that was :)
23:24:34 <TomyLobo> eh? why does that need a ti calc?
23:24:40 <TruePikachu> @me?
23:24:44 <TomyLobo> yes
23:24:49 <TruePikachu> It is a programmable calculator
23:24:53 <TruePikachu> I can program on the go
23:24:54 <TomyLobo> i mean the timetables thing
23:25:03 <TomyLobo> get a lappy :)
23:25:07 <TruePikachu> Oh, to keep airplanes perfectly spaced out
23:25:50 <TruePikachu> TomyLobo: I can't get a laptop, development is a terrible idea directly inside DSLinux, and I can use BBC Basic on my calc
23:26:07 *** avdg has quit IRC
23:26:26 <TruePikachu> BBC may be old, but it is very similar to qBasic, the first dilect of BASIC I've ever used, and the only programming language I've mastered
23:27:06 *** avdg has joined #openttd
23:27:18 <TomyLobo> http://cgi.ebay.com/Thinkpad-R51-Laptop-Pentium-M-1-6Ghz-512MB-30GB-XP-CDRW-/190428916838?pt=Laptops_Nov05 26 dollars 15 minutes left :P
23:27:48 <TruePikachu> I don't use e-bay, and I don't need another computer to remotly maintain
23:27:59 <TruePikachu> We have 5 computers in this house
23:28:28 <TruePikachu> (meaning PCs, not all network connected devices, of which we have 3 more)
23:28:37 <TruePikachu> (at least 3 more)
23:28:53 <TruePikachu> 3 of them are desktops, and 2 of them are laptops
23:29:00 <TruePikachu> The laptops belong to my sisters
23:29:04 *** nicfer has joined #openttd
23:29:33 <TruePikachu> This computer is the oldest of the desktops (and ironicly the computer with the newest OS version on it)
23:29:57 <TruePikachu> The newest of the desktops is a piece of junk right now; barely runs at all
23:30:48 <TruePikachu> I do a lot of network matinence daily, and I check software versions on all connected devices daily
23:31:21 <TruePikachu> Now, I want to do OpenTTD
23:32:02 <TruePikachu> ** Feature Request: add grep to the console
23:32:45 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: michi_cc * r20507 /trunk/src/ (lang/english.txt toolbar_gui.cpp): -Change: Remove the shortcut hints from the screenshot menu strings (as they're configurable now) and rename "Giant screenshot" to "Whole map screenshot".
23:32:48 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: michi_cc * r20508 /trunk/src/ (5 files in 2 dirs): -Add [FS#3973]: A new screenshot type that makes a zoomed-in screenshot of the visible viewport. (Eddi)
23:33:42 <planetmaker> :-O
23:34:15 <avdg> hmm nice...
23:34:29 <avdg> I'm getting used to modify the openttd code
23:34:53 <avdg> the codebase is a lot easier then I thougth
23:36:20 <planetmaker> avdg, that depends :-) Some things: yes. Some others: there are interesting inter-dependencies
23:36:42 <avdg> yeah, but I'll see
23:36:58 <TruePikachu> Ummm...I'm not getting the proper game...
23:37:06 <michi_cc> Yeah, a lot better than many open-source projects (and closed-source projects as well). And the SVN history is actually useful...
23:37:51 <Rubidium> try src/pathfinder/yapf/* (or nforenum's source)
23:38:06 <michi_cc> Commit log of the last commercial software I've seen, horrible, just horrible..
23:38:12 <avdg> well, I have to sleep now
23:38:13 <avdg> gn
23:38:18 <planetmaker> g'night avdg
23:38:25 *** avdg has quit IRC
23:39:56 * Rubidium wonders why I always have to think of Avogadro when seeing his nick
23:40:01 <TruePikachu> Ummm...look at this transcript:
23:40:08 <Eddi|zuHause> :)
23:40:14 <planetmaker> hehe
23:40:42 <TruePikachu> ] newgame 30088245347
23:40:45 <TruePikachu> ] getseed
23:40:47 <Eddi|zuHause> i always think of "average"
23:40:56 <Eddi|zuHause> not sure how the "d" fits in ;)
23:40:56 <Rubidium> and now I start to wonder how many people have a clue what Avogadro is about
23:41:08 <planetmaker> :-)
23:41:16 <TruePikachu> Generation Seed: 2147483647
23:41:17 <planetmaker> about googol numbers ;-)
23:41:53 <Eddi|zuHause> TruePikachu: that is a perfect example of the output of clamp()
23:42:07 <TruePikachu> ?
23:42:36 <TruePikachu> =2^31 - 1
23:42:48 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: rubidium * r20509 /trunk/src/window.cpp: -Change: don't cycle (quickly) through the shade states. Just make scrolling up shade the window and scrolling down unshade it. (avdg)
23:42:53 <Eddi|zuHause> Rubidium: i only know Avocado and Advocate ;)
23:43:08 <TruePikachu> But I had generated a game which returns that the generated map had that other (300...) seed number
23:43:19 <planetmaker> :-O that was quick for a feature-patch :-)
23:43:48 <planetmaker> TruePikachu, you hadn't.
23:43:56 <TruePikachu> I had, and I have the savegame
23:44:07 <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: it isn't a -Feature: ;)
23:44:18 * TruePikachu will go to post it on the flyspray
23:44:23 <planetmaker> :-) It's a FIX ;-)
23:44:37 <TomyLobo> !google numbers
23:44:58 <CIA-2> OpenTTD: rubidium * r20510 /trunk/src/network/ (4 files in 2 dirs): -Codechange: unify packet queue handling and make insertion O(1) instead of O(n)
23:45:01 <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: no, it's a -Change: ;)
23:47:21 <michi_cc> Today was no-feature-day :)
23:47:35 <planetmaker> Yeah... just some boring adds ;-)
23:47:43 <planetmaker> nothing new. Please go on... ;-)
23:47:58 <Rubidium> yeah... everything we do for it to not show on tt-ms.de :)
23:48:00 *** lugo has joined #openttd
23:48:10 <planetmaker> loool
23:51:11 <TruePikachu> FS4036
23:54:26 <TruePikachu> How can I hex edit my savegame to change the year?
23:54:37 <Eddi|zuHause> open the cheat window
23:54:51 <TruePikachu> No, I'm doing this game cheat-free
23:54:51 <planetmaker> Eddi|zuHause, wrong. That won't help to hex-edit it
23:55:04 <Eddi|zuHause> for hex-editing you need to make uncompressed savegame first
23:55:06 <TruePikachu> Please see FS4036
23:55:19 <TruePikachu> I have the file on there
23:55:30 <TruePikachu> But it won't hurt to have me learn
23:55:53 <TruePikachu> How would I make an uncompressed savegame?
23:56:17 <Eddi|zuHause> you can also try the scenario editor
23:56:46 <TruePikachu> Oh, I'll try that instead (and push the town over and make it a city)
23:56:51 <TruePikachu> :)
23:57:50 <TruePikachu> (and remove some industries)
23:58:18 <planetmaker> you also should add and remove some industry newgrfs.
23:58:45 <TruePikachu> Ummm...how do I import a savegame into the scenerio editor?
23:59:05 <TruePikachu> planetmaker: I don't use industry GRFs
23:59:12 <Eddi|zuHause> i'm sure you're intelligent enough to figure that out by yourself
23:59:28 <TruePikachu> But I can't figure it out
23:59:32 *** JVassie has quit IRC
23:59:38 <TomyLobo> TruePikachu with windows explorer :)
23:59:43 <TruePikachu> Lol
23:59:48 <TruePikachu> I'm using Linux
23:59:50 <Eddi|zuHause> then call on us if you didn't figure it out in half an hour
