IRC logs for #openttd on OFTC at 2011-03-29
⏴ go to previous day
00:02:06 <Eddi|zuHause> i don't suppose there are a lot of TTD enthusiasts in that region :p
00:19:54 <SmatZ> where US state "Georgia" is translated as the country "Georgia"
00:20:06 <SmatZ> so it doesn't make any sense at all
00:21:19 <SmatZ> (Georgia is a country between Europe and Asia, as well as US state)
00:23:11 *** rhaeder1 is now known as Quix0r
00:23:17 *** Quix0r is now known as rhaeder
00:24:43 <SmatZ> on the western border of Asia, rather
00:33:27 <Eddi|zuHause> any non-american knows that georgia is nest to russia...

15:14:09 <planetmaker> good afternoon ;-)
15:14:17 *** Aylomen has joined #openttd
15:24:44 <supermop> or how is planetmarker, if you are the only one here
15:27:10 <Doorslammer> He's a cool frood who knows where his Sharpie is.
15:29:24 *** DayDreamer has joined #openttd
15:30:00 * Eddi|zuHause has no idea what that means
15:39:37 <Belugas> the only thing i get out of that soup of letter is FOOD
15:39:45 <Belugas> ok, i had to swallow a R
15:42:49 <Eddi|zuHause> DanMacK: that makes it not a single bit clearer
15:46:33 *** JOHNSHEPARD has joined #openttd
15:46:35 <DanMacK> Frood: Really amazingly together guy
15:46:50 <DanMacK> "Hey, you sass that hoopy Ford Prefect? There's a frood who knows where his towel is."
15:49:54 <Eddi|zuHause> er... if you say so.
15:51:35 <Doorslammer> I forgot it was completely humourless Continental people in here...
15:53:04 *** JOHN-SHEPARD_ has joined #openttd
15:57:17 <Eddi|zuHause> Doorslammer: or maybe humour that works purely on language features isn't actually funny for foreign language people.
16:01:21 <Eddi|zuHause> Doorslammer: not everybody has read all books in original language, and gets all the references.
16:04:36 *** JOHNSHEPARD has joined #openttd
16:05:54 *** JOHN-SHEPARD__ has joined #openttd
16:06:21 <aber> and he is from germany, so he has no humor at all.
16:08:08 <Chris_Booth> any native german speakers in here?
16:09:43 *** Brianetta has joined #openttd
16:12:17 <Eddi|zuHause> i'd have said "no", but he wouldn't have got my humour.
16:12:45 <DanMacK> Eddi, have you read the Hitchiker's Guide in German?
16:13:01 <Eddi|zuHause> DanMacK: no, i have only seen the movie in german.
16:13:25 * DanMacK isn't sure how Frood would translate
16:13:37 <DanMacK> and I can't remember if it was in the movie
16:35:43 *** frosch123 has joined #openttd
16:38:13 *** Prof_Frink has joined #openttd
16:39:54 <MinchinWeb> In English, the books are hilarious :)
16:41:01 <__ln__> I made the mistake of watching first the BBC series from early 80s, and then the movie...
16:42:18 <__ln__> The movie is like the series fast-forwarded, only with the funny parts left out.
16:42:33 *** JOHNSHEPARD has joined #openttd
16:43:18 <__ln__> But I definitely recommend to Eddi reading the whole trilogy.
16:43:32 *** JOHN-SHEPARD__ has quit IRC
16:54:53 <Prof_Frink> Are you talking about the trilogy of five?
17:15:20 *** Alberth has joined #openttd

17:28:20 *** tokai|noir has joined #openttd
17:44:03 <Prof_Frink> In that case, I recommend the originals.

19:42:05 <MinchinWeb> Has something changed over the last two years in how Senarios are codes/saved?
19:42:48 <MinchinWeb> I have a Scenario that will load in the editor but doesn't show up in the multiplayer screen...
19:44:02 <Alberth> random guess: missing newgrfs ?
19:44:50 <Eddi|zuHause> MinchinWeb: sure the multiplayer screen shows scenarios and not just savegames?
19:44:53 <MinchinWeb> no, it didn't have any newgrf's
19:46:41 <MinchinWeb> it list other scn files
19:47:09 <MinchinWeb> it's on the first screen after you start the server
19:47:37 <MinchinWeb> the same one as you set how many companies, etc
19:55:49 <MinchinWeb> if you want to try it, it's the USA scenario up on Bananas
19:56:17 *** LordAro has joined #openttd
19:58:46 <frosch123> MinchinWeb: using 1.0.x?
20:02:17 *** LordAro|2 has joined #openttd
20:02:38 <frosch123> then it only shows the scenarios from the main directory
20:02:50 <LordAro|2> grr @ internet connection
20:02:50 <frosch123> it was like that since ever, but got fixed in 1.1
20:03:57 <andythenorth> it's probably done
20:04:04 <andythenorth> let's shut the room and go to the pub?
20:08:31 *** LordAro|2 is now known as LordAro
20:08:52 * LordAro wonders how to set up kvirc to do that automatically :)
20:09:16 *** supermop has joined #openttd
20:09:17 <LordAro> andythenorth: you say that almost everyday ;)
20:10:02 <LordAro> although, to be fair, the last 5 commits have only been translators
20:10:39 <MinchinWeb> how do you get the * thing?
20:10:56 <Rubidium> /me isn't going to tell you that
20:11:40 * LordAro hopes that was an intentional fail :P
20:12:19 <Rubidium> /quit is nice as well
20:12:56 <MinchinWeb> does that drop you out of the channel?
20:27:56 <frosch123> i hope noone browses the faq section of the forums :p
20:29:27 <frosch123> it is hard to find something in the post about ottd, which is not outdated for 5 years
20:29:54 <Rubidium> so... slap those that can update those posts ;)
20:30:21 <frosch123> i fear the backfireing of such actions :)
20:30:27 <Rubidium> then I'll do the sensible [for my biological clock] thing for this time of day
20:30:37 <SmatZ> good night, Rubidium :)
20:31:35 <frosch123> it almost looks like there was once a plan to hardcode george's long vehicles into ottd :o
20:33:03 <frosch123> it is always a good idea to not read faqs :)
20:33:08 <Eddi|zuHause> wait... your biological clock is not hopelessly screwed up by the time shift?
21:19:54 <andythenorth> and soon...good night
21:27:12 <supermop> was going to ask what kind of hotel you were thinking of
21:31:37 <andythenorth> any suggestions welcome
21:31:41 <andythenorth> it's maybe 2x2 tiles
21:31:46 <andythenorth> could be climate variations
21:43:53 <Light> Is there anyone on this line by any chance?
21:44:14 <planetmaker> it's a channel full of bots
21:44:35 <planetmaker> </errnometaquestion>
21:44:57 <planetmaker> mostly centurions
21:45:39 <__ln__> and the occasional wookies
21:45:49 <Light> Wait, this isn't the chat site? O.O
21:46:19 <Yexo> irc isn't exactly a "site", no
21:46:26 <planetmaker> this an irc channel dedicated to openttd
21:46:28 <Yexo> although that's probably not what you wanted to hear
21:54:37 *** Brianetta has joined #openttd
22:03:28 *** JOHNSHEPARD has joined #openttd
22:03:47 <Eddi|zuHause> new headline: criminal investigators find it suspicious when they find no porn on a man's computer.
22:05:26 <Prof_Frink> Hey, that's what "the cloud" is for.
22:06:36 <Eddi|zuHause> the reason is particularly intriguing: "finding absolutely no pornography is about as rare as actually finding child pornography"
22:07:39 <Eddi|zuHause> meaning: they actually don't find that much illegal stuff after they seized some poor guy's equipment
22:14:21 *** Intexon has joined #openttd
22:25:37 *** ar3k is now known as ar3kaw
22:58:18 <Eddi|zuHause> hey... my old game still loads in new chipp, how crazy :p
22:59:54 <supermop> i was thinking of trying version 12
23:00:12 <supermop> but i am still working on this timetabled game in 11.5
23:01:30 *** ar3k is now known as ar3kaw
23:11:56 <__ln__> official snow depth measurement here: 44 cm
23:15:41 <Eddi|zuHause> it was really cold the past few nights, but no snow
23:15:57 <Eddi|zuHause> ought to get really warm the next days
23:16:24 <Eddi|zuHause> why is there both NuTracks r112 and NuTracks 1.0.0 in the online content?
23:17:46 <Eddi|zuHause> *msg to self: don't do bananas downloads from the title screen*
23:18:28 <__ln__> last winter was exceptionally long; the permanent snow stayed on ground for three months. this winter the snow has been on ground for 4,5 months now...
23:18:48 <Eddi|zuHause> __ln__: it just snowed earlier this winter.
23:19:28 *** supermop has joined #openttd
23:20:41 <__ln__> "just", but besides that the temperature has remained low enough
23:28:32 *** DanMacK has joined #openttd
23:34:25 <Eddi|zuHause> well, it's been warmer around here ;)
continue to next day ⏵
