01:08:06 <BookaT> is the reddit openttd server active alot?
01:13:07 <Mazur> Not one of ours, so I do not know,
01:14:02 <Eddi|zuHause> can't expect a lot at 3AM
01:14:34 <Eddi|zuHause> yes, but most of the OpenTTD community is european
01:15:35 <BookaT> I'm just looking for a decent group to get something started, my old group are actually flight simmers and its tough to get them going
01:17:09 <Mazur> You can join our stabl server, some more Merkins and nightowls there, usually.
01:17:59 <Mazur> stable.openttdcoop.org:3999
01:19:31 <BookaT> let me go check that out
01:21:15 <Mazur> I speak a bit outside my own private little world.
01:21:43 <BookaT> man, this game is already at maglev
01:21:48 <BookaT> I don't stand a chance
01:21:48 <Mazur> Just one or two words, as you can see.
01:22:38 <Mazur> There´ll be a new game every few days.
01:23:09 <Mazur> As soon as map gets filled.
01:23:20 <BookaT> This map is a ton of water, and mostly already used up
01:24:37 <BookaT> but I do know some people don't like you pulling up into a station and fucking distro chains
01:25:35 <Mazur> Anyhow, Iḿ off to play with the pixies.

06:03:34 <andythenorth> FIRS now uses nearly all the available industry IDs :)
06:10:35 <planetmaker> I'm not surprised andythenorth :-)
06:10:40 <planetmaker> nor actually concerned
06:11:22 <andythenorth> I can reuse IDs between different economies :P
06:11:30 <andythenorth> trivial solution, bit non-elegant
06:12:14 <andythenorth> I should just auto-generate IDs in each economy :P
06:12:22 <andythenorth> but that wouldn't be reliable acrosss savegames
06:13:34 <planetmaker> andythenorth, it would not be bad for release versions to simply kick savegame compatibility into the trash bin
06:13:44 <planetmaker> just make the min_compatible_version reflect that
06:15:45 <planetmaker> only problem really would arise for you when testing

06:49:09 <andythenorth> the message "Cannot be funded on snow" is a bit stupid in Tropic
06:52:31 <planetmaker> means desert likely
06:52:41 <planetmaker> thus simply use "snow or desert"
06:52:53 <planetmaker> or... "Can only be funded on grass"
07:03:57 <andythenorth> the checks are explicit to snow and desert individually
07:04:23 <andythenorth> could solve it, but never noticed it before
07:10:18 *** ProfFrink has joined #openttd
07:11:24 <planetmaker> desert == snow. Except for climate, andythenorth
07:11:37 <andythenorth> not the way we coded the checks though
07:11:38 <planetmaker> if you check for tiletype, they're identical
07:11:49 <planetmaker> that might be, we might consider climate
07:11:53 <planetmaker> dunno anymore :-)
07:12:08 <andythenorth> we check snowline height ;)
07:12:18 <andythenorth> probably for some good reason we've forgotten

10:53:23 <Chrill> recommendations for a decent early 1800s-1850s train set? :)
10:54:24 <Xaroth|Work> horse and carriage
10:54:42 <planetmaker> might be lucky with one of Pikka's. Maybe 2ccTS has some... maybe not
10:54:56 <Chrill> well I've used NARS in the past
10:55:03 <Chrill> but I wanna try my hands at something new :)
10:55:23 <planetmaker> play 1950+ but with NUTS
10:56:11 <planetmaker> that's the biggest innovation in vehicle sets for years
10:57:56 <Alberth> I start at 1935 with nuts
10:58:20 * Alberth feels unequalized now
10:59:16 <Alberth> :o I can start at 1920 even :) thanks for finding that page
10:59:30 <planetmaker> that grf has a wiki :-)
11:00:56 <planetmaker> the wiki seems a bit outdated wrt latest releases though
11:01:10 <Alberth> the page looks familiar, so I probably read it and then forgot all about it :)

12:10:01 <DorpsGek> -Fix [FS#5623]: the high score's company/president name was stored with encoded string codes, causing it to cause trouble when the encoding of the string codes changes. Furthermore, check the incoming dangerous content better

13:15:31 <andythenorth> I can't write code on this silly ipad :p
13:16:06 <planetmaker> take a permanent marker, remove the cap and write "code" straight over it ;-)
13:16:10 <planetmaker> I'm sure it'll work
13:17:02 <planetmaker> (then use a cheap vodka to remove it again :-P )
13:19:24 <andythenorth> Considering using ssh to the mac :p

13:32:49 *** spongie has joined #openttd
13:33:45 <spongie> Hiya. I'm looking to change the time for a train to stay for n days at a station, but the change time popup never gets focus even though it is shown. Clicking the change time window does not give it focus, typing on the keyboard still acts as if the change time window wasnt there. How do I enter a new value to change the time for the timetable?
13:34:31 <spongie> ok, so if I mouseclick I can enter a number using the mouse, but the keyboard is never focus for the input window.
13:37:14 <frosch123> does it display a cursor in the editbox?
13:41:20 <Rubidium> do you use the numbers above the characters on the keyboard, or those on the numeric part of the keyboard?
13:41:22 <frosch123> then the editbox as focus and ottd just does not catch the keypress

13:41:44 <frosch123> iirc it was broken for sdl in fullscreen somewhat recently
13:41:53 <Rubidium> if it's the latter, is numlock in the right state?
13:42:38 <spongie> Rubidium: using the normal number keys
13:42:43 <Rubidium> frosch123: you remember correctly, based on the logs
13:42:54 <spongie> frosch123: its only in fullscreen yes
13:43:29 <spongie> well, then it's a known bug, just wanted to make sure i hadnt missed any new input feature
13:44:26 <spongie> thanks for the confirmation that im not too stupid to use the input dialog :)
13:46:59 <Zuu> Hmm.. I got several GS bugs waiting for me :-)
13:47:18 <frosch123> someone used it apparently :)
13:57:11 <Zuu> I should be happy about every bug I guess :-)
13:57:45 <planetmaker> I mean... the story book really is an excellent feature. It kinda opens the door for real scenarios. Time- and situation-dependent ones
13:58:29 *** ntoskrnl has joined #openttd
14:03:11 *** George is now known as Guest1546
14:08:03 <Zuu> It is useful, yet it doesn't really add anything new as you colud do that before as well using the query windows - just that you had to live with centered text.
14:09:18 <Zuu> Hmm, compiling on VS2008 with OpenTTD useful 5.1 gives 238 warnings due to missing vc100pdb for ICU
14:11:09 *** sla_ro|master has joined #openttd
14:13:55 <TinoDidriksen> So don't use 2008?
14:14:08 <Zuu> It doesn't give any errors though
14:14:30 <Zuu> 2008 still use the old and easy way to configure include paths :-)
14:15:31 *** ntoskrnl11 has joined #openttd
14:16:31 <Zuu> If GSs could ask questions or have settings with free text entry answers, then it would possible to create a GS that allows non-programmers to in-game enter texts that the GS should display to players.
14:17:03 <Zuu> Right now someone who want to make a scenario like that need to understand how to make their own GS and how to upload via musa.
14:20:06 <frosch123> Zuu: isn't that what 5.1 fixes compared to 5.0 ?
14:20:06 <Zuu> Perhaps it would be easiest to allow translations if such text entries were part of the GS config and not a dynamic question that the GS asks itself.
14:20:42 <Zuu> frosch123: I don't know. I just got 5.1 (previously had v4 I think)
14:24:12 <frosch123> Zuu: the farm had those warnings yesterday as well, but they vanished around 23:03
14:24:34 <Zuu> ok, maybe they are temporary
14:24:41 <frosch123> ok, 5.1 is from 19:30, so i guess you need 5.2 :p
14:39:53 <frosch123> hmm, that failed. let's qpop and go for plan b :)

15:38:00 <alluke> someone knows how to take screenshots
15:40:33 <Rubidium> it's the only reliable way
15:45:04 <Rubidium> ever tried making a screenshot of a bios with that?
15:45:07 <planetmaker> in OpenTTD I'd always recommend to use the in-built one
15:45:46 <Alberth> openttd also has some keys to make several different screenshots, but I don't know which keys, the wiki does know, I think
15:45:48 <planetmaker> but openttd has no bios :-(
15:46:31 <frosch123> Rubidium: works fine when running ksnapshot on the host os
15:46:50 <Rubidium> also, this colour issue doesn't show up in screenshots made in openttd. Anyhow, the reliable way did speak in the more general sense of making a snapshot of what's on the screen of a computer

21:33:58 * Zuu found out that his htpc/home server has possible died. At least it didn't respond on ssh and was really hot even though the power consumption had dropped from 18 to 15 watts. The shop that sold it went bankrupt earlier this year ... :-p
21:35:10 <__ln__> that's what pc hardware usually is like
21:37:00 <Zuu> This htpc is just one year old.
21:37:02 <Rubidium> so... is Monaco station legally on French grounds or so? It can't be the 300 meter in Vatican city as there's mostly cargo transit there
21:37:50 <Zuu> Have been on 24/7 though - I gues htpcs are not made for that ...
