07:52:01 <scshunt> ello
07:52:30 <scshunt> is there somewhere with an exact specification of how signals work? I think I get the gist but want to know precisely the behaviours of each kind
07:52:50 <Alberth> tutorials not sufficient?
07:53:20 <V453000> http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/Presignal_Basics
07:53:36 <Alberth> http://wiki.openttd.org/Signals and at the bottom there are a few more
07:54:03 *** valhallasw has joined #openttd
07:54:04 <Alberth> but just start with one-way path signal for everything :)
07:54:16 <Alberth> moin V
07:54:39 <V453000> hi :) you cant imagine how harmful can PBS signals be to players, but I dont have time for that conversation now :P
07:55:42 <Alberth> not everybody builds the kind of track layouts that you make :)
07:56:55 <scshunt> Alberth: that page isn't fully detailed
07:56:57 <Alberth> but yeah, if you want to become a signals expert, listen to V453000
07:57:21 <Alberth> scshunt: perhaps you could explain what you are looking for?
07:57:22 <scshunt> for instance, if I have =E=B=X= where E is entry, B is block, and X is exit, does the entry key of the exit there?
07:57:23 <V453000> it doesnt matter what kind of tracks, logical thinking and intuitiveness matters
07:57:34 <scshunt> and how does PBS *actually work*
07:58:17 <peter1139> pbs is simple and effective. V453000 just likes making life hard for himself.
07:58:48 <Alberth> scshunt: I don't understand "does the entry key of the exit there"
07:59:31 <V453000> I know the signals so me making anything hard for me is irrelevant and senseless, I use PBS where it can be used effectively. But for learning a lot better approach is to start from block signals through presignals and pbs
07:59:33 <scshunt> Alberth: like, does the entry signal pay attention to the exit signal, or does it just act like a block signal because it has no exit signals
08:00:05 <scshunt> I'm a programmer and math mathjor, I can handle this if only I understand exactly what each signal type does
08:00:41 <Alberth> scshunt: PBS works by allocated routes through a block. When a train is about to enter a PBS block, it allocates a new path through the block, not used by any other train. When it succeeds, it passes the PBS signal
08:00:49 <peter1139> V453000, that's like teaching 5 year olds imaginary numbers and differential equations and other shit, and then only later teaching them about addition
08:01:19 <V453000> yep, signal A looking at signal B is totally mathematical equation
08:01:22 <Alberth> another train can also enter the same PBS block, as long as each can create a path through the block not used by any other train in the block
08:01:42 <scshunt> Alberth: Ok. Can trains allocate parts of a path that the allocating train has passed over?
08:02:20 <Alberth> yes, trains release every track tile they have passed
08:02:40 <scshunt> and what happens if you mix PBS with regular signals on the same block? collisions?
08:03:15 <Alberth> yep, make sure a PBS block can only be entered through a PBS signal
08:04:50 <scshunt> hmm... ok. An entry pre-signal does not care at all about the trains in its block?
08:05:03 <Alberth> an entry pre-signal makes sure a block has an exit before allowing a train in; the combo signal looks ahead further into next blocks
08:05:12 <scshunt> but what if there's a train in the block
08:05:25 <scshunt> does it ignore the train or go red?
08:05:27 <Alberth> all but the PBS signals allow at most one train in a block
08:05:31 <scshunt> ok
08:06:46 <V453000> I suppose I should write a signals page
08:07:25 <Alberth> pre-signals are mostly for making sure crossings never get blocked by a train, but they are mostly outdated by PBS
08:07:29 <scshunt> a lot of the wiki on signals is like "here's some not quite entirely explanatory text, followed by an image at a wide zoom level that makes it hard to see what the signals all actually are
08:08:23 <Alberth> scshunt: yep, problem is that a lot of that text is written by people that understand the subject
08:08:37 <Alberth> so they don't focus on things important for a new user
08:08:44 <V453000> Alberth: both have completely different uses :) the only problem is that they are both an entry check which means they are often exchange-able in stations, but comparing them is really silly
08:08:57 <scshunt> that seems right
08:09:25 <scshunt> if I understand correctly, pre-signals would allow for a long stretch that can be reversed safely, and PBS does not
08:09:25 *** roadt has quit IRC
08:10:05 <V453000> you could always check our games http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/PublicServer:Archive and see how signals are used
08:10:10 <V453000> most of the time they should be used correctly
08:10:16 <V453000> otherwise someone would have noticed
08:10:40 <Alberth> V453000: seeing a good solution does not mean you understand why that is a good solution, imho
08:11:41 *** roadt has joined #openttd
08:11:42 <Alberth> scshunt: reverse? why would you want to do that?
08:12:02 <V453000> yes and no :) seeing it in a savegame means you can pause the game, and/or edit the signals and understand it that way
08:12:07 <Alberth> but yes, a single train in a block gives more room for doing weird things :)
08:12:26 <V453000> with absolute extreme signal mechanisms savegame is almost the only way how to understand it
08:12:43 <scshunt> Alberth: because in my first game, I was thinking like in real life where you often have a single stretch of track that runs in both directions with crossovers to accomodate bidirectional travel
08:12:52 <Alberth> V453000: I agree you need to see it in action
08:13:12 <V453000> scshunt: never think "like in real life" in openttd :D does not lead to results
08:15:24 <scshunt> yeah
08:16:02 <scshunt> this was later evident when I discovered that a side circuit to retain momentum is advised
08:16:03 <Alberth> http://devs.openttd.org/~alberth/Chendston_Transport_1927-05-24.png
08:16:08 <scshunt> momentum isn't quite that valuable in real life
08:16:25 <scshunt> yes, like that
08:17:18 <Alberth> many people put a lot of trains at a line
08:17:39 <Alberth> any disruption breaks the flow very badly then
08:19:11 <scshunt> also, as I read more, I suspect that people wouldn't run a train in a circle just to time other trains either
08:19:17 <Alberth> also, a train does not slow down to run in the same pace as its predecessor, instead it stops
08:19:59 <Alberth> scshunt: people do make time tables to plan trains
08:20:24 <Alberth> http://wiki.openttd.org/Timetable
08:20:59 <Alberth> I play with breakdowns enabled, which makes most planning kind of useless :p
08:21:57 <Alberth> There are several different styles of playing openttd, depending on what you focus on
08:25:20 <V453000> no there are only people who play the game, and people who are lazy to play the game :P
08:27:38 *** Mucht has joined #openttd
08:32:49 <scshunt> is there any time delay for signals, or are they instantaneous?
08:33:21 <Alberth> http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/Junctionary_-_Logic_and_Other <-- perhaps you meant these kind of circles?
08:33:44 <Alberth> no time delay
08:34:21 <V453000> most of those logic things are exceptional things which indeed are possible to build, but their usage is so specific that you normally dont build them
08:35:17 <V453000> this is where things get real http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/images/5/54/Psg248_bbhfurball.png
08:35:19 <scshunt> hmm... ok, I think I can already see how to develop a cyclotron that only allows trains to exit when operating at full speed
08:36:18 <scshunt> although I can't think of how do one without possibly having to stop the train before it goes in
08:36:21 <scshunt> (or stop some other train)
08:36:36 <V453000> cyclotrons are only a random-based thing which hopes to increaese the throughput of your line(s) ... but adding more lines is a lot more effective
08:37:00 <V453000> you just make a check in front of the cyclotron somewhere so no train can enter if the loop is full
08:38:31 <scshunt> yeah, but suppose you have a fast main line and a slow side line (say, a station). then you could develop a particle accelerator by carefully timing with an adjoining train in a circle
08:38:54 <V453000> not really worth it :)
08:39:12 <scshunt> yeah probably not
08:39:36 <V453000> http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/ProZone:Archive_-_Games_11_-_20#gameid_13 this is as extreme as it can get in that regard
08:39:46 <V453000> hint: you will need a correct revision to make it work though

08:40:41 <V453000> just duplicate your openttd folder, and overwrite this zip with it
08:45:55 <scshunt> nah, it's fine
08:45:57 <scshunt> I should sleep
08:46:03 <scshunt> thanks, though, I'll be back :)

09:19:52 <andythenorth> so I fixed the palette on my new river sprites
09:19:53 <andythenorth> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/4424/rivers_better.png
09:20:09 <andythenorth> LH bank is current openttd sprites, RH bank is new sprites
09:20:36 <andythenorth> Rubidium: I want to carry on with this, you likely to accept it if I do?
09:22:05 *** Zuu has joined #openttd
09:24:52 * Alberth likes
09:25:24 <Rubidium> andythenorth: there you have it, Alberth accepts it ;)
09:25:44 <Alberth> oops ;)
09:25:48 <Rubidium> I see no obvious reason to reject it, though I wonder whether it's too dark
09:26:57 <andythenorth> that's adjustable
09:27:06 <andythenorth> I'll do the other tiles
09:27:10 <andythenorth> then we can look
09:27:14 <andythenorth> then I'll do the other climates
09:27:17 <andythenorth> will take a few days

10:18:32 <Ruler> Hello. I'm having problems with openttd multiplayer.
10:18:48 <Ruler> I cannot see any servers in the multiplayer or online content in the online content menu
10:19:06 <Ruler> I have NAT. but I cannot figure out what to do with it to make it work
10:19:12 <Zuu> @ports
10:19:12 <DorpsGek> Zuu: OpenTTD uses TCP and UDP port 3979 for server <-> client communication, UDP port 3978 for masterserver (advertise) communication (outbound), and TCP port 3978 for content service, a.k.a. BaNaNaS (outbound)
10:19:57 <Zuu> Usually no configuration is needed to enable clients to communicate out from a NAT.
10:20:36 <Zuu> But you could check both the router and local firewalls on your computer. The ports/protocolls used for communication is mentioned above.
10:20:57 <Ruler> well. then i cannot figure out what's wrong. I disabled all my software antivirus and firewall and stuff but nothing shows if i open openttd
10:21:49 <Zuu> Did you click on the "Find server" button?
10:21:57 <Zuu> (In the multiplayer window)
10:21:57 <Ruler> yes
10:22:05 <Ruler> and the internet tab is selected
10:23:03 <Zuu> If you go to the bananas window (cilck on "check online content" in the main menu), and wait up to a minute, is the list populated with online content items?
10:24:15 *** TrueBrain has joined #openttd
10:24:20 <andythenorth> o/ TrueBrain
10:25:06 <Ruler> Zuu: nope
10:25:11 <Zuu> Ruler: What OpenTTD version do you use?
10:25:12 <Alberth> Ruler: what version do you use? http://www.openttd.org/en/servers <-- does it show servers with your version?
10:25:39 <Ruler> 1.3
10:25:42 *** Progman has quit IRC
10:26:20 <Alberth> (12:20:57 PM) Ruler: well. then i cannot figure out what's wrong. I disabled all my software antivirus and firewall and stuff but nothing shows if i open openttd <-- and your router?
10:26:46 <Alberth> or is that "stuff"?
10:27:08 <Ruler> i cannot disable my router. my isp has provided it and it has limited options
10:27:44 <Ruler> i created a rule to allow 3978-3980 ports both ways
10:27:48 <Ruler> but no help
10:27:52 <Ruler> in tcp and udp
10:28:17 <Alberth> oke
10:28:25 <Zuu> This rule is mapped to the same local IP that your computer is using?
10:28:27 <Alberth> outbound only should be fine though
10:29:49 <Ruler> got it working. doesn't like my wifi for some reason
10:29:56 <Ruler> dunno
10:30:01 <Ruler> wired connection works

10:34:01 <Zuu> Ruler: A possible reason could be a too high packet loss on your wifi.
10:35:57 <Zuu> In my apartment, I can't do wifi cross the walls. I get better performance with 3G in my bedroom than with wifi (connected to a 10 Mbit service).
10:37:50 <Ruler> yeah. there's lots of wifi noise in the neighborhood also
10:38:25 <Ruler> all the apartments have wifi and it's hard to find a channel that isn't noisy in that sense
10:38:43 <Ruler> thx for help.

10:40:23 <oskari89> Is Central European Train Set GPL?=
10:40:52 *** Pixa has quit IRC
10:40:59 <frosch123> it's hosted on the devzone, so it has to be some free license
10:41:14 <frosch123> so, i guess just check which license is bundled with it
10:41:22 <oskari89> Ok, i checked out the license, it seems to be GPL
10:41:48 <oskari89> So Finnish Trainset can use those green templates too :)
10:41:55 <oskari89> Since it's gpl too

11:18:57 <andythenorth> that's just a dirty flip of the RH banks to do the LH bank
11:19:19 <andythenorth> to be done properly needs shading tweaking

11:29:42 <Alberth> that needs a bit more work than adapting the corners :)
11:30:46 <Alberth> but openttd does proper maintenance on the river beds of course ;)

11:56:37 <juzza1> does a newgrf vehicle, which is not available in any climate, reserve an id?
11:57:26 <NGC3982> That Openttd Android app keeps giving me a black screen.
11:57:42 <frosch123> juzza1: yes
11:57:53 <frosch123> not being available in any climate is a normal thing for articulated parts
11:58:09 <juzza1> good

12:02:35 <Eddi|zuHause> oskari89: yes, but only 1/3 of them
12:02:45 <oskari89> Ok
12:03:25 <Eddi|zuHause> (or fewer, if you keep default settings)
12:03:37 <oskari89> Someone has done some information mining on that CETS :)
12:03:57 <oskari89> The amount of stuff is kind of much
12:04:15 <Eddi|zuHause> it's mostly just wikipedia stuff
12:04:58 <Eddi|zuHause> it gets tricky on some early vehicles
12:06:30 <juzza1> pictures of 19th century vehicles are pretty hard to come by :P
12:06:34 <juzza1> at least for finnish ones
12:07:30 <juzza1> data too, but fortunately there are some books available
12:08:18 <Eddi|zuHause> german railway history is pretty well documented
12:12:07 <Eddi|zuHause> although i left out the really early period of 1835-1870

14:49:05 <Lordmwa> thats the error
14:50:37 <frosch123> you probably did not open the right "solution" file
14:50:58 <frosch123> you should have a language project in the solution
14:51:18 <Lordmwa> yes its open - just checking it now
14:51:32 <frosch123> otoh, maybe the patch file misses the addition to src/lang/english.txt
14:53:30 <Lordmwa> added STR_CONFIG_SETTING_TIMETABLE_ENABLE_SEPARATION :{LTBLUE}Enable automatic timetable separation: {ORANGE}{STRING1} to english.txt now at sacros suggestion
14:53:38 <Lordmwa> just trying again now
14:54:38 <Lordmwa> that has worked - thanks

15:23:06 <Eddi|zuHause> that should probably be STRING2 now
15:23:46 <Eddi|zuHause> (and instead remove the orange)
15:24:22 <Eddi|zuHause> (that is, if you're trying to patch a newer revision)
15:26:38 <andythenorth> there is going to be a problem with these new rivers at the spring (river source)
15:27:01 <andythenorth> currently that's made by overlapping 2 opposite curves
15:27:37 <Alberth> :(
15:27:44 <andythenorth> http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/4430/spring.png
15:27:51 <andythenorth> I wonder if it can be special-cased
15:27:55 <andythenorth> it's just some bits, right?
15:27:57 *** cyph3r has quit IRC
15:28:16 <Eddi|zuHause> why is that a problem, actually?
15:28:29 <andythenorth> the yellow represents where grey river edge will show
15:28:38 <andythenorth> so there will be a bizarre grey line
15:28:48 <andythenorth> or I could drop the grey for that bit...
15:28:55 <andythenorth> which will probably work fine?
15:29:13 <Eddi|zuHause> or you just crop the sprites differently?
15:29:35 *** sla_ro|master has joined #openttd
15:29:46 <andythenorth> can you think of a way to do that and still get the large curve?
15:29:50 <andythenorth> if so, I'll use it
15:30:20 <Eddi|zuHause> i don't know how river shores are assembled
15:30:37 <andythenorth> lots of layering
15:35:54 <Eddi|zuHause> that is not an anwser to my question
15:36:46 <Eddi|zuHause> anyway, it should not be too troublesome to add more sprites to the river specs
15:37:22 <Eddi|zuHause> i certainly won't do that, though
15:37:31 <andythenorth> I might be able to solve it by cheating
15:38:12 <andythenorth> draw a tree :P
15:38:41 <andythenorth> this is not far off, no? http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/4433/spring_fix.png
15:38:45 <Alberth> or a cliff :)
15:38:54 <andythenorth> not properly shaded yet, but works?
15:39:21 <Alberth> looks like the right shape
15:39:53 <Eddi|zuHause> the question is how will that interfere with the "normal" curve
15:40:12 <Eddi|zuHause> it looks very asymmetric now
15:40:53 <andythenorth> it is very asymmetric
15:41:26 *** Born_Acorn has quit IRC
15:41:28 <andythenorth> hmm
15:41:31 <andythenorth> might be a kludge
15:42:04 <frosch123> considering there are random bits, and thus a123 chains are resolved for every river tile anyway, it might be easiest to expose the water connection status via a variable
15:42:18 * andythenorth feels it's too sunny for reading the river drawing code
15:43:01 *** roadt has quit IRC
15:43:02 <andythenorth> but I'm sure that the bits could be counted up and a different sprite used?
15:43:23 <Eddi|zuHause> so then, why is it ok to resolve this for rivers, but not for rails?
15:43:35 <andythenorth> frosch123: this is openttd.grf btw, not some andythenorth.grf

15:44:10 <frosch123> who cares :)
15:45:06 *** Lordmwa has quit IRC
15:46:31 <andythenorth> I should draw some snaking stream-river thing for the springs
15:46:35 <andythenorth> it looks silly currently
15:47:37 <andythenorth> fully formed river springs up in 1 tile
15:49:10 <frosch123> you cannot distinguish begin and end of river
15:49:40 <frosch123> if you really want to touch the R thingie, you are likely best of with some underground-tunnel-entrance-thingie
15:49:55 <Eddi|zuHause> small streams as "objects"
15:50:32 <oskari89> What was the max resolution for picture showing up on tt-forums?
15:50:35 <oskari89> 800x600?
15:51:11 <andythenorth> frosch123: so can't do this? :D http://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/4436/better_spring_or_is_it.png
15:51:18 <andythenorth> I don't mind not having to draw stuff
15:51:25 <Eddi|zuHause> oskari89: there might be a kB limit as well
15:52:05 <frosch123> andythenorth: just imagine how a lake would look like, which has only one tile at one end
15:52:22 <andythenorth> like a lake with a spring feeding it? o_O
15:52:25 <andythenorth> nah, nvm
15:52:57 <oskari89> Have some neat screenshots here
15:53:11 <oskari89> Ready to boost up Finnish Trainset thread
15:54:54 <andythenorth> so we can't tell what is begin / end of river
15:55:11 <andythenorth> but the bits on the tile know if it's a curve or a dead end?
15:55:30 <andythenorth> so the overlapping issue with these new curves could be avoided?
15:56:18 <alluke> yay
15:58:53 <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: it's information-theoretically possible. just nobody has implemented it yet.

16:13:41 <frosch123> height doesn't matter? :p
16:13:51 <frosch123> who is going to check whether that is right? :p
16:15:19 <alluke> you can since i have never posted any screenies xD
16:15:35 <alluke> i just thought that since you scroll the site anyway
16:16:20 <andythenorth> so maybe I'll read the river drawing code later :P
16:16:35 <andythenorth> it's time I learnt how the game works anyway :|

16:50:15 <andythenorth> DrawWaterEdges
16:52:00 *** oskari89 has quit IRC
16:52:09 <andythenorth> kind of understand it, not very well
16:53:42 <andythenorth> Switch for each corner. If certain bits found, draw some edges? Check neighbouring tile in certain direction, if doesn't contains water, draw corner piece?
16:53:55 * andythenorth guessing

17:14:33 <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: while you're there, the drawing code should treat MP_VOID tiles as if they were MP_WATER, to make rivers look like they flow in/out of the map edge
17:18:05 <alluke> @oskari89 where are those screenies
17:18:17 <oskari892> Just doing them
17:18:35 <alluke> ah ok i thought you had them already
17:19:03 <oskari892> Good things have to be waited ;)

17:38:25 <oskari892> Later those will be disabled by default and enabled by switch, if wanted
17:39:41 <oskari892> Fictional but plans were ready for those, so semi-fictional :P
17:43:40 <alluke> will the testing stuff go under the switch too

17:51:35 <alluke> still
17:51:35 <oskari892> Doesn't bother me at all

17:52:09 <alluke> how many are there
17:52:24 <alluke> if you want i can preview em and pick my favorites
17:52:36 <oskari892> I have 10
17:52:52 <alluke> doesnt sound too much
17:52:53 <alluke> post all
17:53:05 <oskari892> That leads to quadruple post :P
17:53:20 <alluke> doh
17:53:23 <oskari892> I think i put three first

17:55:16 <oskari892> Ok, to be fixed
17:59:53 <planetmaker> good evening
18:01:31 <alluke> evening
18:12:35 <Eddi|zuHause> alluke: nah, andythenorth traditionally has a rather short attention span, so he'll find something else to focus on soon :)
18:13:16 <alluke> but he has been focused on rivers for (over?) a year now
18:13:29 <alluke> like an autism
18:14:20 <Eddi|zuHause> short attention span doesn't mean it can't be recurring :)
18:15:41 <planetmaker> hehe :-)
18:17:54 <Eddi|zuHause> andythenorth: it shouldn't be difficult, just find the place where it checks whether an adjacent tile is MP_WATER and add a check for MP_VOID there as well
18:20:01 <oskari892> Screenshots anyone?
18:20:02 <oskari892> http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=21457&p=1076075#p1076075
18:22:00 <planetmaker> nice :-)
18:24:15 <oskari892> planetmaker: Thanks :)
18:24:46 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: bit harsh. More like a high-frequency attention span
18:24:59 <andythenorth> also my ignore list grew
18:25:05 <__ln___> that kinnula station building is maybe a little too bright, it looks like las vegas.
18:25:44 <oskari892> __ln___: Maybe, could be adjusted later when redrawn
18:25:47 <alluke> whats with all that concrete around the stations
18:25:56 <andythenorth> also it's totally unmotivating to work on something when dickheads show up and throw peanuts

18:31:03 <oskari892> (FTS)
18:31:35 <alluke> yay new one
18:31:38 <alluke> whats changed
18:31:48 <oskari892> http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/finnishtrainset/nightlies/r99/
18:33:21 <oskari892> allukke: tractive efforts corrected, green Edm, refitting Dv12, etc...
18:33:34 <alluke> ok ill check it out
18:33:49 <oskari892> You can replace it in game but be aware
18:33:56 <alluke> what about the dmg7 issue i posted
18:34:03 <alluke> i have replaced all the previous ones :P
18:34:25 <alluke> some trains get fucket but get fixed when i rebuy them
18:34:56 <alluke> lmao
18:35:36 <juzza1> didnt make the dmg7 yet but will do later

18:36:23 <juzza1> i added a lot of new trains (all of which are hidden because there are no sprites) so the ids are messed up again
18:36:33 <alluke> np
18:36:41 <alluke> ill jsut rebuy it and its good again
18:37:59 <alluke> whats the point in refitting between series?
18:38:55 <oskari892> Well you can decide yourserlf :P
18:38:58 <juzza1> different sounds and gfx
18:39:02 <oskari892> Yes

18:39:49 *** RavingManiac has quit IRC
18:40:46 <alluke> btw
18:40:55 <alluke> lower fots mail capacity to 50 or 40 bags
18:41:07 <alluke> otherwise its too competitive with pot
18:41:31 <oskari892> Hmm, it should be modern replacement of Pot
18:41:40 <oskari892> Or work like it
18:42:21 <oskari892> (when necessary)
18:43:23 <alluke> is it possible to make it carry pax and mail
18:43:26 <alluke> like planes do
18:43:54 <juzza1> unfortunately not
18:44:27 <oskari892> You can put two of those in a train and refit other on other cargo
18:45:53 <oskari892> Seems that i must double-track some line
18:51:20 *** oskari89 has joined #openttd
