04:18:31 <Markk> Good evening to you sir/madam.

04:59:17 *** andythenorth has joined #openttd
05:00:50 <mynetdude> would there be any way or how about would it be easy to create a free for all play in OTTD? Like be able to setup your own towns, industries, etc and without money?
05:01:25 <mynetdude> I also noticed I read somewhere that the stable release 1.0.5 allows you to build under tracks, I have not been able to get htis to work
05:08:31 <nicfer> which grfs can I use for a passenger network game?
05:21:51 <avdg> mynetdude: you may not know the differences it made
05:23:22 <mynetdude> I'm sorry, what do you mean avdg?
05:23:56 <avdg> without that change, you couldn't build nearly anything, if you know what I mean
05:25:33 <mynetdude> but I had the impression you could build under tracks does that mean without a bridge?
05:27:41 <avdg> you can still build bridgeramps
05:28:39 <mynetdude> yes I know you can build bridge/ramps but I was actually hooping to be able to build under tracks actually
05:29:23 <avdg> well, the current model is already much better then the old one
05:29:26 <mynetdude> avdg but every time I do, it tells me "track in the way" or "you must remove track"
05:30:11 * mynetdude wants to start with a blank map like SimCity and I want to build all my indds, towns, etc
05:30:13 <avdg> you mean buildings and stuff?
05:30:27 <avdg> indeed thats not possible :p
05:30:54 <avdg> its 1 step closer to lazyness :p
05:31:36 <avdg> not cleaning up stuff before building new stuff
05:32:03 <mynetdude> avdg oh you mean OTTD development?
05:34:28 <mynetdude> oh, clean up what? I'm not sure what you're talking about there's nothing to clean up, yeah sure there's always tons of improvising as you continue to build
05:35:34 <mynetdude> well personally I'd rather start with a blank map and play free for all without the game $$$
05:35:56 <mynetdude> or at least be allowed to start with 2 towns, and 2 matching industries
05:56:17 *** Eddi|zuHause has joined #openttd
06:09:39 <mynetdude> have you ever seen 2 trains either opposing directions or same direction use the same platform at the same time at the same station in real life?
06:12:05 <avdg> but their you have crosses between "sections" of a platform
06:28:10 *** andythenorth has joined #openttd
06:47:50 *** andythenorth has joined #openttd
06:51:01 *** sla_ro|master has joined #openttd
06:51:21 <sla_ro|master> im running a server and i want to know where can i get a irc bot for it ?
06:51:34 <sla_ro|master> i like more remote control from irc
06:57:15 <Rubidium> but that is known to not work with all versions of OpenTTD
06:57:26 <sla_ro|master> i have latest stable for windows
06:58:16 <Rubidium> that definitely makes setting up ap+ a lot harder
06:59:35 <Rubidium> something that bridges OpenTTD and IRC, which was what you were asking for, right?
06:59:54 <sla_ro|master> i need something to access on rcon my server
07:02:34 <sla_ro|master> btw.. i tried to make a connection to server on tcp with the port of server and tried to send "rcon pass "command"" but not worked..
07:06:01 <Rubidium> that won't work; that connection only allows those rcons after it's being fully logged in to the server
07:06:20 <Rubidium> and it's a somewhat binary format
07:07:03 <Rubidium> in the 1.1 release candidates/betas there's a port especially for bots that is simpler with respect to logging in and such
07:07:08 <sla_ro|master> eh.. i had send text to server
07:07:23 <Rubidium> but that protocol is also binary
07:07:53 <sla_ro|master> mIRC can convert text to binary, i was making the bot on mirc
07:21:59 <avdg> it should block anonymous users creating these pages
07:22:21 *** Kurimus has joined #openttd
07:25:58 <Rubidium> and with these you mean "any", right?
07:26:35 <avdg> actually, against this one
07:27:36 <avdg> logged in users can still create such pages, if that was your question
07:28:59 <Rubidium> but does it block just the creation of any page for anonymous people?
07:29:17 <sla_ro|master> where can i get expected packet for activetcl?
07:30:24 <Rubidium> well, for some reason those pages don't trigger the spam word list or the spam ip list
07:31:04 <avdg> yeah, and recaptcha doesn't work well
07:31:21 <Rubidium> it doesn't work for humans trying to enter them
07:32:39 *** Cybertinus has joined #openttd
07:33:20 <avdg> well, I hope that "botnet" doesn't change there way they form titles
07:33:31 <avdg> if they do, then we have to fight back

09:38:49 <planetmaker> hm... where's the NewObjects GUI?
09:39:49 <planetmaker> there's no landscape_gui.cpp
09:40:41 <planetmaker> he, but an object_gui.cpp :-)
09:41:15 <Alberth> I just reached that conclusion too :)
09:42:23 <planetmaker> as usual: asking helped to find it oneself :-) Thanks

10:48:03 <CIA-11> OpenTTD: settings; with default from and to savegame versions all can be conditional.
10:48:03 <CIA-11> OpenTTD: They previously were as well; the non-conditional ones were macros of the
10:48:03 <CIA-11> OpenTTD: conditionals with to/from saveload versions hardcoded
10:49:27 *** tycoondemon has joined #openttd
11:01:01 *** MinchinWeb has joined #openttd
11:02:29 <MinchinWeb> is this the IRC channel to ask for help to create your own town list?
11:07:19 <Rubidium> there are at least some that can help you with it (or give you clues)
11:07:36 <Rubidium> though I'm not aware whether there is a channel really dedicated to town lists
11:07:57 *** roboboy has joined #openttd
11:11:39 <planetmaker> any of those, yes :-)
11:11:59 <Ammler> swisstowns needs bash, that might be not start friendly
11:12:19 <planetmaker> Ammler: the others need bash + mingw :-P
11:12:33 <Ammler> dutchtowns is nml only
11:13:00 <Alberth> Ammler: could 'compiler' also remove issues when its deletes the url with the error?
11:13:11 <Alberth> or copy the text into the issue or so?
11:13:49 <Ammler> yes, I would like that, at least a part of the error log like first 100 lines
11:15:03 *** DJNekkid has joined #openttd
11:15:09 <Ammler> current redmine isn't able to update issues with REST API, but newer will
11:15:47 <MinchinWeb> I was looking at the central page you mentioned and it suggested coming over to IRC...
11:15:52 <Ammler> but they are committing a log mercurial patches right now, so it is not that easy to update my mq right now ;-)
11:16:05 <MinchinWeb> I'll look at the Swiss names...
11:16:53 <Ammler> MinchinWeb: which OS do you work with?
11:16:56 <CIA-11> OpenTTD: rubidium * r22198 /trunk/src/ (5 files in 3 dirs): -Codechange: make some constants name more explicit
11:17:52 <MinchinWeb> I'm running Windows 7
11:17:59 <Ammler> if it is windows and you don't know bash, you should rather check projects without bash
11:20:50 <MinchinWeb> I can follow the Dutch project a lot better...
11:21:39 <MinchinWeb> So if I create a .NML file (which appears to be a text file), how do I turn that into a .GRF to use with the game?
11:22:13 <planetmaker> by using nmlc to compile it into a grf
11:23:57 *** PierreW has joined #openttd
11:24:18 <MinchinWeb> do I need to install Python? or is the nml compiler self contained?
11:24:28 <planetmaker> woah... DutchTowns has the grf in the repo and no license :S
11:24:50 <planetmaker> MinchinWeb: you need to install everything which is explained in the getting started section
11:25:10 <planetmaker> though there's a windows installer... let me search
11:25:45 <planetmaker> that should work mostly out of the box, I think
11:26:38 <MinchinWeb> ok, I'll play with it for a couple days and see how far I get
11:26:51 <MinchinWeb> Is there a suggested minimum number of names to provide?
11:27:31 <planetmaker> there is... the number of possible towns is limited by the amount of names you can provide
11:28:09 <planetmaker> so for a low amount it may fail to generate many on a big map... how many? a few dozen at least, I think; I know not the exact numbers
11:28:55 <MinchinWeb> so if you run out of names, does the map generator just stop adding towns?
11:29:51 <avdg> + that it iterates slower here
11:29:57 <planetmaker> MinchinWeb: it does, yes
11:30:31 <MinchinWeb> is there somewhere I can download an offline version of the NML documentation?
11:31:36 <planetmaker> MinchinWeb: nml comes with documentation
11:31:50 <planetmaker> isn't there some in the zip?
11:31:51 *** KenjiE20 has joined #openttd
11:32:50 <MinchinWeb> no, just an EXE and 6 PYD files, so unless it generates the documentation when you run it or something
11:34:43 <CIA-11> OpenTTD: rubidium * r22199 /trunk/src/table/ (9 files): -Cleanup-ish: replace the shortcut macros for (gui)flags with their more clearly named (longer) constant names
11:36:40 <MinchinWeb> OK, I'll play with it and see what I can get. Thanks so much

12:16:55 *** Phoenix_the_II has joined #openttd
12:17:17 <MinchinWeb> Ok another question - how do you get a GRFID?
12:18:11 <planetmaker> choose one. Just don't use one which is being used by another
12:18:18 <planetmaker> There's unfortunately no comprehensive list
12:18:39 <Yexo> planetmaker: are you sure it's an installer at all?
12:18:47 <planetmaker> The usual guide is to use something like your initials and then a grf-specific number. Like 0 for your first grf
12:18:59 <Yexo> looks like a zip with a (renamed) openttd.exe inside
12:19:00 <planetmaker> Yexo: I don't know at all what it is. I suspect it's a plain binary without anything extra
12:19:01 <Terkhen> planetmaker: since it triggers a No available language packs error, I doubt it is even an installer
12:19:17 <planetmaker> ok. Then I'll tell him about the rules :-). Thanks
12:19:44 <MinchinWeb> Planetmaker: is the GRFID alphanumeric or hex?
12:20:36 <Alberth> although you can make an alphanumeric grfid using hex as well :)
12:23:25 <Eddi|zuHause> MinchinWeb: it's basically 4 letters, but can also be a 4-byte-number
12:23:50 <planetmaker> MinchinWeb: it's anything which goes as 4-bytes
12:24:52 <Eddi|zuHause> MinchinWeb: the convention was to use your initials and then a number determining which of your grfs it is, and which version. but the version thing is obsolete meanwhile
12:32:04 <MinchinWeb> So can you have a string of as many hex 'characters' as you want or are you limited to three (and exactly three)?
12:32:56 <planetmaker> a grfID is exactly 4 bytes
12:33:09 <planetmaker> not more. not less
12:35:12 <alluke> i accidentally gravedug
12:35:27 <planetmaker> you can always delete your postings
12:35:34 <planetmaker> if no one answered (yet)
12:35:53 <planetmaker> depends on the kind of day Hyronymus had
12:36:56 *** Chillosophy has joined #openttd
12:42:20 *** andythenorth_ has joined #openttd
12:45:46 <planetmaker> alluke: that's not a grave dig
12:45:49 <planetmaker> that's adding content
12:46:01 <alluke> i thought so because the last post was old
12:46:53 <Yexo> it doesn't matter if the last post is old as long as you add something useful to the topic, which you clearly did
12:46:56 <alluke> does.@user have any effect
13:01:18 *** valhallasw has joined #openttd
13:01:51 *** FloSoft has joined #openttd
13:08:55 <alluke> i think rivers and lighthouses should be able to build in-game
13:15:21 <planetmaker> alluke: thanks for the translation. I guess there are now enough to warrant a new release with translation updates
13:18:14 <alluke> is it possible to add ore roadtypes like nutracks
13:19:16 <planetmaker> there are no road types yet
13:19:24 <andythenorth_> it's too hard for me
13:19:33 <andythenorth_> no-one else wants to work on it :D
13:19:53 <alluke> why dont you put up recruit topic
13:20:19 <Alberth> alluke: that is called 'suggestion forum' :p
13:21:04 <planetmaker> everyone is free to work on that feature s/he likes
13:21:37 <planetmaker> or come here and ask for suggestions of what <whoever> would like to see most urgently in the game and s/he could grind his/her teeth on
13:21:51 <Terkhen> features like this one would be made faster if we used conscription
13:22:38 <Alberth> first make a new feature before allowed to play :)
13:22:47 <planetmaker> like announce "we want features a) b) and c)"?
13:23:09 <Terkhen> forced recruitment for working in features
13:23:29 *** Adambean has joined #openttd
13:23:35 <planetmaker> s/military service/openttd coding service/? ;-)
13:23:55 <Alberth> I have some doubt it would be productive :p
13:24:02 <planetmaker> at your service, general Terkhen :-P
13:24:12 <Terkhen> probably as productive as forced military service was
13:24:59 * Alberth played with DB3 while in military service :)
13:26:50 * planetmaker made the first experience with how to behave as BOFH there
13:27:30 * planetmaker was having fun sending shut-down messages to all repair workshops in the evenings to rush their daily reports :-P
13:28:24 <Alberth> hmm, how to get the next value of an iterator in Python?
13:32:03 *** ^Spike^ has joined #openttd
13:42:33 *** XeryusTC has joined #openttd
13:46:14 <planetmaker> alluke: you can get an update with your translation now from bananas
13:47:03 <andythenorth_> Alberth: did you get an answer to your python question?
13:49:54 <andythenorth_> Alberth: some people think the try, then say sorry route is wrong :)
13:50:11 <andythenorth_> there is actually a valid argument that it is wrong
13:50:16 <andythenorth_> and a valid argument that it isn't :P
13:51:18 <Alberth> I agree it is wrong, but I don't know how to test for the end otherwise :(
13:51:41 <andythenorth_> so you can't do a 'for i in' here?
13:52:27 <Eddi|zuHause> Alberth: what's wrong with .next()?
13:52:47 <Alberth> no, I want to get new lines at several points in the program
13:53:00 <Alberth> Eddi|zuHause: does that not throw exceptions?
13:53:23 <Alberth> otherwise nothing probably
13:53:26 <Eddi|zuHause> it throws StopIteration if it's the last item
13:53:44 <Alberth> one further, but yeah :)
13:55:52 <Eddi|zuHause> so what exactly are you trying to do=
13:57:16 <Alberth> ie look for +++ and ---, then for @@ then read some lines, and repeat either @@ or +++/---
13:57:49 <Eddi|zuHause> and what speaks against making a real parser with ply?
13:58:08 <Alberth> non context freeness ?
13:58:27 <Eddi|zuHause> what's not context free there?
13:58:50 <Alberth> that's the point, it isn't
13:59:18 <Alberth> also, a real parser is overkill for the simple line-based format
13:59:46 <CIA-11> OpenTTD: smatz * r22200 /trunk/src/order_cmd.cpp: -Fix (r21642): removing a station order could stop when removing first automatic order
13:59:48 <Eddi|zuHause> i'm still not sure what you need "unget" for
14:00:41 *** DorpsGek has joined #openttd
14:00:41 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o DorpsGek
14:01:29 <Alberth> at the end, I don't know whether I will get a @@ or a new ++/--- until I have read the line. But then jumping back to point that deals with it breaks, as you cannot read that line any more
14:02:05 <Eddi|zuHause> aha, so you need a lookahead line
14:02:24 <Alberth> hmm, perhaps @@ always comes immediately after the previous chunk ?
14:03:09 <Eddi|zuHause> so you need separate top() and pop() functions
14:03:56 <Alberth> oh, some alternative look-ahead probably :)
14:03:59 <Eddi|zuHause> those are "stack" functions
14:04:19 <Eddi|zuHause> top() looks at the topmost element of the stack, without removing it
14:04:23 <Alberth> a single line should be sufficient :)
14:04:28 <Eddi|zuHause> and pop() looks at the element and removes it
14:05:12 <Alberth> yes, that would be a valid solution too
14:05:29 <Eddi|zuHause> so you need a wrapper around the file-iterator that stores the last line, and in the code you use different functions depending on wether you know you'll never need the line again, or whether you want to keep it
14:06:16 <Eddi|zuHause> you skip the dubious "unget" function
14:07:39 <Alberth> look ahead is also possible, but it costs 2 calls to remove unwanted lines
14:08:04 <Alberth> while 'unget' is only used once you have found the line you want to keep.
14:08:25 <Eddi|zuHause> yes, the extra call is swapped
14:09:07 <Eddi|zuHause> currently you call "unget" when you want to keep a line, in the other case you call "pop" when you want to not keep it

16:43:44 <supermop> with just a couple exceptions, but I have a work around
16:56:40 <Alberth> posting random urls from youtube?
16:57:15 <planetmaker> that's good news, supermop :-)
16:57:48 <frosch123> Alberth: maybe we should ban *.openttdcoop.org :)

17:01:12 <Alberth> alluke: I also don't post patches without describing what it does
17:01:36 <alluke> well thats different thing imo
17:02:28 <alluke> you need to install them
17:02:42 <alluke> and they work different
17:02:43 <Alberth> my main point is that you should always make it easy for your audience
17:02:45 <planetmaker> We read them usually
17:03:18 <Alberth> alluke: ok, posting a pdf url then?
17:03:49 <alluke> and usually you can read the conctent from the url
17:04:23 <Alberth> haha Z36KFNLLj2w is very clear of course :p
17:04:24 <alluke> like asd.com/hotchick.png
17:04:52 <alluke> unless its 23166666645457.png
17:05:33 <planetmaker> which is the form of every youtube url
17:08:07 <supermop> so Nutracks, and other rail grfs seem to usually use RAIL as one of the types, and i cannot change that like the other types
17:08:37 <supermop> so i need to just have people use an older grf i made along with this one
17:08:53 <planetmaker> supermop: you could - when RAIL is used - override additionally also the default depot via replace(xxxx, ...)
17:08:59 <supermop> or, add some code to this one to also replace the default
17:09:14 <supermop> so need to figure that one out
17:09:22 <planetmaker> look for replace command
17:09:30 <supermop> I want to make it changable by parameter
17:10:06 <supermop> currently, if you use both my old and new grfs, depot style gets more modern as speed increases
17:10:18 <Lakie> planetmaker: am I right in thinking (o)ttd(p) adds roughly a year either way to vehicle introduction dates?
17:10:22 <supermop> but the RAIL depot is also modern
17:10:49 <supermop> so i need a way for people to control the appereance of the RAIL depot
17:11:14 <supermop> so they do not get metal sheds in 1830, or brick in 2100 unless the want it
17:11:17 <planetmaker> Lakie: iirc it's two years
17:11:35 <planetmaker> unless it's 2 years after game start (openttd) or two years after 1920 (ttdp) - all iirc
17:15:47 * Eddi|zuHause remembers the time when the start year thing wasn't implemented and you occasionally only had half the wagons
17:17:22 <Eddi|zuHause> like you build an oil line, and then shockingly notice that you don't have any oil wagons
17:21:25 <Alberth> sounds like me, playing with a non-standard industry set, and discovering I didn't load a different vehicle set :p
17:23:25 *** Alberth has joined #openttd
17:23:25 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Alberth
17:38:59 <supermop> in .se rails, do the depots change graphics at a certain year, or do they keep the style they were built with?
17:40:20 <planetmaker> depots once built keep their look
17:40:38 <planetmaker> but the look of depots differ between early and modern versions
17:41:12 <supermop> i want to do that, then have a parameter to force all default depots to a certain style
17:42:05 <planetmaker> well... if you only replace the default depots, that doesn't work, they have no build date. Only railtype depots have
17:42:30 <supermop> so just the force parameter
17:43:23 *** perk111 has joined #openttd
17:43:24 <planetmaker> well. SER has the introduction date for modern stuff. And by default it only uses railtype depots for RAIL and ELRL as it completely re-defines those railtypes
17:44:07 <planetmaker> And it replaces the default depots by either the old or the modern type - depending upon the starting year
17:45:00 <supermop> ah, so it uses start year instead of build year
17:47:40 <planetmaker> for the replacement: yes.
17:48:52 <supermop> i also notice i could not replace the track planning depot
17:49:07 <planetmaker> but usually the railtypes way should also work for the RAIL and ELRL types
17:49:16 <supermop> so i guess i should add default replacements for monorail and mag
17:49:23 <planetmaker> the latter is using the monorail or maglev. Dunno which
17:49:40 <supermop> i think it is using monorail
17:50:15 <supermop> i am also going to try adding back in conditional support for other sets now that i have sorted out most of the basics
17:51:01 <planetmaker> :-) Well, you basically add support for railtypes, not individual sets :-)
17:53:13 <supermop> yeah, at first i tried to address all of those, but it didn't work
17:53:48 <supermop> yexo was saying that it wouldn't be able to support more than 16 types, even if less than 16 were active at anyone time
17:54:03 <planetmaker> and can you replace the depot for RAIL and ELRL when you load SER instead of NuTracks?
17:54:35 <supermop> i havent tried with ser in a few days, i had some wierd problems last time
17:54:42 <supermop> but it might work now
17:54:55 <supermop> i will try after work today
17:55:00 <planetmaker> weired problems like what?
17:55:22 <supermop> it was not working in the same way that nutracks was not working
17:55:37 <supermop> but now that i have (maybe) fixed that part
17:55:52 <supermop> it might work on ser
17:56:13 <supermop> does ser define all 16 possible types?
17:56:51 <planetmaker> no. It only defines RAIL and ELRL
17:59:05 <supermop> so you can use it with other sets

18:29:28 <frosch123> bah, cookies can become quite lame, when they get moist
18:29:40 <planetmaker> but them into the oven
18:29:51 <planetmaker> especially the chocolate ones ;-)
18:29:53 <frosch123> hmm, might be a try
18:30:25 <planetmaker> install a planetmaker. Cookies then never last long ;-)
18:31:17 <Prof_Frink> Or give them to me. I will dispose of them appropriately.
18:32:01 <Sacro> anoter day out seeing Richard Stallman
18:32:30 <frosch123> planetmaker: i have heard britains think the moon is made of cheese. but what planets are made of cookies?
18:33:05 <planetmaker> oh, I'm sure there are many ;-)
18:33:14 <planetmaker> especially those planets which I make ;-)
18:33:24 <planetmaker> though they might also consist of cake
18:34:12 <Prof_Frink> I mean, we already have planets made of nougat and caramel.
18:34:36 <Sacro> I accidently said Linux User Group
18:36:16 <Prof_Frink> "That's what they're called, you silly beard."
18:42:21 * DanMacK enjoys planets made of nougat and caramel
18:50:12 <planetmaker> and even a whole milkyway ;-)
18:54:27 <__ln__> Terkhen: no, it was end of last year.
18:56:22 <Terkhen> hmm... either they are getting more frequent or I am better informed now
18:56:53 * planetmaker guesses the latter
18:57:08 <Alberth> nasa needs money more urgently :)
18:58:06 <frosch123> maybe they could sell doctors' degrees
18:58:52 * planetmaker doubts they make too much money on such claims
18:58:55 <avdg> nasa gets payed by the goverment, so I wonder why?
18:59:19 <Terkhen> because the government is not as generous as they would like
18:59:22 <planetmaker> well, also government agencies need to apply for money in the senate. So to speak
18:59:31 <Eddi|zuHause> the highest chance to find "extraterrestrial" life is in garbage circling in earth orbit.
19:01:00 <frosch123> [19:29] <planetmaker> but them into the oven <- they were quite fine after that btw :)
19:01:12 * planetmaker would guess it's quickest found on either Europa, Mars or Titan
19:01:38 <Rubidium> pff... it all depends on your point of view ;)
19:01:41 <frosch123> it is said there is life in europe
19:02:14 <planetmaker> mind the ending - only in German there's no difference between Europa and Europe ;-)
19:02:29 <Rubidium> if you're a, for us, alien then it's probably easier to find "extraterrestrial" life in your own planet's orbit ;)
19:02:49 *** ar3k is now known as ar3kaw
19:03:30 <Rubidium> you mean that rock is a motor cycle?
19:04:43 <Terkhen> in spanish both of them are called "Europa"
19:05:31 <planetmaker> yeah, in German, too ;-)
19:09:05 <Rubidium> I guess I should ask: which Europa? The continent, moon, island, planetoid, motor cycle, rocket, village (x6), movie (x2), magazine, or mythological figure
19:10:19 <planetmaker> the latter surely was or is extraterrestrial ;-)
19:11:11 <Eddi|zuHause> it's a quite plausible idea that the greek/roman gods were actually aliens
19:12:16 <Eddi|zuHause> those were usually egyptian gods
19:12:41 <Rubidium> regardless, it's the same concept
