04:27:34 <V453000> I believe NUTS has massively shuffled around flax about pax/cargo trains for AI
04:27:41 <V453000> so I wouldnt expect AIs to have too much success :P
04:28:02 <V453000> hm how did I typo x there

05:12:34 <Supercheese> How do you even select things in Blender?
05:14:51 <Supercheese> guess I have to RTFM

05:16:33 *** fjb_mobile has joined #openttd
05:17:04 <Supercheese> although it's entirely beyond me why clicking something doesn't select it

05:41:14 <Supercheese> So, I'm making a 3D model of the OpenTTD logo
05:41:36 <Supercheese> The dollar sign in the center appears to be more of a cutaway than an extrusion, no?

07:00:28 <Supercheese> 3D model complete
07:01:00 <Supercheese> Now I can print it on my 3D printer :D
07:01:28 <Supercheese> Whoops, non-manifold geometry
07:02:49 * dihedral checks the channel's toppic for wards such as 'twitter'
07:03:10 <Supercheese> Twitter could easily be a ward
07:04:00 <Supercheese> It may warn, "Attention: avoid the following unless absolutely necessary" :P
07:05:38 <planetmaker> dihedral, there is an account... but no-one maintains it ;-)
07:05:42 <planetmaker> good morning also
07:08:30 *** andythenorth has left #openttd
07:08:48 <dihedral> i was more hinting towards someone using the channel like twitter :-P
07:11:15 <Supercheese> I'm planning on printing the 3D model of the OpenTTD logo I just made, surely that's on-topic
07:12:34 <peter1139> when is this channel ever on topic?
07:12:59 <Supercheese> That would be an interesting statistic
07:13:32 <peter1139> well it would be a statistic anyway

09:27:09 <Eddi|zuHause> hm, i dont understand this... the track type code looks correct, but when NuTracks is not used, the narrow gauge vehicles go on standard and electric rails, and the normal vehicles go on electric rails only. electric vehicles are not available :/
09:30:17 <Eddi|zuHause> maybe it's partial-compilation related :(
09:30:41 <Eddi|zuHause> i.e. does nml shuffle around IDs of the railtype table, if values are not used?
09:31:07 <planetmaker> omg! how many railtypes do you have?
09:31:25 <planetmaker> it might actually be that it's too many... you might want to define only 16 at most maybe?
09:32:34 <Eddi|zuHause> i'd expect 256 to be the limit
09:33:15 <Eddi|zuHause> i could split it in 3 separate tables, loading only the one matching the trackset
09:33:39 <planetmaker> a game can only provide 16 tracks at a time
09:33:48 <planetmaker> you define more than 16 unique labels
09:33:58 <Eddi|zuHause> but this is the railtype translation table, not the railtype definition table
09:34:13 <Eddi|zuHause> a cargo translation table can also have more than 32 entries
09:34:16 <planetmaker> let's call it "define" :-)
09:34:21 <Eddi|zuHause> this is definitely not the reason...
09:35:33 *** Alberth has joined #openttd
09:35:33 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Alberth
09:35:43 <planetmaker> tracktype_speedVNn : [NGRL],
09:35:43 <planetmaker> <-- these go on unexpected rail, yes?
09:36:16 <Eddi|zuHause> no, tracktype_default(stuff)
09:36:54 <Eddi|zuHause> hold on, i'm trying my "partial compilation" theory
09:47:41 *** roboboy has joined #openttd
09:51:03 *** kais58_13 has joined #openttd
09:54:09 <Eddi|zuHause> hm, that did not solve anything :(
10:06:55 *** MatrixCL has joined #openttd
10:14:00 <Eddi|zuHause> trying to read nmlc's NFO output now :/
10:14:12 <Eddi|zuHause> need to understand action6 :p
10:20:34 <Alberth> I can see why it was added, but I have my doubts whether it is actually the right solution
10:21:14 <Eddi|zuHause> the values 3, 10 and 45 seem right. not sure what it assigns 0 and 9 for
10:22:49 <Eddi|zuHause> how do i find out ingame whether that's what that actually ended up?
10:24:04 <Alberth> the newgrf inspection thingie?
10:24:15 <Eddi|zuHause> that doesn't really show anything useful
10:24:40 <Eddi|zuHause> i've attached a gdb now. what variables to check?
10:53:57 <Eddi|zuHause> that's obviously wrong
10:54:42 <Eddi|zuHause> but this is already the translated value, it doesn't represent my translation table entries anyway
10:55:20 <peter1139> add some printfs where the mapping is done :p
11:04:52 <Eddi|zuHause> how do i set a breakpoint if i only have a text editor?
11:11:20 *** sla_ro|master has joined #openttd
11:14:53 <Alberth> why do you need a break point? just print relevant values
11:15:08 <Alberth> exit(1); will work :p

11:59:09 <Eddi|zuHause> now, is this an nml bug?
12:08:32 <Eddi|zuHause> i think the action 6 there is wrong
12:09:13 <Eddi|zuHause> "69 04 FF \wx0008" overwrites the "RAIL", when it actually wanted to overwrite the first "\00\00\00\00"
12:09:36 <Eddi|zuHause> so nml is recording the wrong offsets, if some railtype entries are fixed, while others are variable
12:21:08 *** kais58_13 has joined #openttd
12:25:41 <Eddi|zuHause> i think i found the problem. testing
12:35:37 <Eddi|zuHause> www.informatik.uni-halle.de/~krause/nml_railtypelist_fix.diff
12:36:46 <Eddi|zuHause> anyone with nml commit rights around, or should i file a report?
12:42:59 <Eddi|zuHause> or it's sufficiently advanced technology :p
12:51:15 <Eddi|zuHause> krinn: can you run your test again with www.informatik.uni-halle.de/~krause/cets-r764M.zip ? i now implemented the "pulls only passengers" flag
12:59:30 <krinn> lol lucky you i just get back here
13:00:08 <Alberth> Eddi|zuHause: pushed, thanks
13:00:48 <krinn> wow file took like 4M :)
13:01:31 <Eddi|zuHause> well it does have over 1000 vehicles in it :)
13:01:45 <Eddi|zuHause> (technically more like 3000)
13:02:12 <krinn> you want the low money or high money versio ?
13:02:22 <Eddi|zuHause> both would be best
13:02:57 <Eddi|zuHause> as many different stuff as you like :)
13:03:38 <Eddi|zuHause> also a long-term test how the AI performs after a few years would be nice
13:04:16 <krinn> lol like if the AI perform nice with classic one :)
13:04:23 <krinn> the ai isn't ready you know
13:04:35 <krinn> i can sent you the "current" one if you want test yourself

13:12:54 <Eddi|zuHause> hm, this is with ignoring the "pulls only passengers" flag?
13:12:58 <krinn> and it has keep this one (terman A 5)
13:13:45 <Eddi|zuHause> krinn: A5 is "correct", because it's a dedicated wood wagon
13:15:02 <krinn> i dont remember the wagon choice heuristic, but it should be a more basic one
13:16:21 <krinn> :) i see it : compatible with engine + isawagon+canrefittocargo and finally capacity first
13:16:49 <krinn> as i don't handle wagon speed
13:23:05 <Eddi|zuHause> how do you handle refittable engines?
13:24:04 <krinn> the same way as wagon, except refit failure won't remove the engine this time (as refit failure on engine appears because of high cost to refit and it's not really a problem like it would with a wagon)
13:24:45 <krinn> if it can, it try refit it, if it fail, it still use it

14:33:17 <krinn> but it only output ai/gs not lib
14:33:25 <Eddi|zuHause> then i don't know

17:58:10 <Eddi|zuHause> ... i have a patch for that :)
18:03:45 <Eddi|zuHause> i know it's bad if you laugh about your own jokes, but does that apply to jokes you don't remember making? :p
18:03:49 <Eddi|zuHause> [Montag, 25. Februar 2013] [02:33:33] <[1]Karan> zuHause do you know some chat rooms?
18:03:50 <Eddi|zuHause> [Montag, 25. Februar 2013] [02:34:06] <Eddi|zuHause> like, have i met any?
18:06:52 <xDraKx> Please can someone help me with multiplayer settings?
18:07:29 <xDraKx> I set the ports TCP and UDP on firewall 3979 and 3978
18:07:40 <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)
18:07:40 <xDraKx> allow game of firewall to
18:07:42 <krinn> Eddi|zuHause, what are you doing, reading a feb log :)
18:08:03 <Eddi|zuHause> yes. trying to read up on when i posted the random patch
18:08:14 <Eddi|zuHause> what the actual discussion was :)
18:08:26 <xDraKx> but the game dont apeear in online servers list
18:08:28 <Zuu> xDraKx: do you have a router?
18:08:58 <Zuu> If so, you need to set up port forwarding.
18:09:17 <Zuu> Just opening them on your local firewall is not enough.
18:09:50 <xDraKx> i need to reset my modem after do this port forwarding?
18:10:18 <xDraKx> i can maintain other ip with dmz?
18:10:44 <Zuu> You can put your local computer in dmz, but it is better to just fortward the ports used by OpenTTD.
18:11:17 <Zuu> DMZ basically opens all ports and forward them to your computer disabling the firewall at the router.
18:11:27 <krinn> I don't remember to create a new ai i must ask someone or i can do it myself on the devzone ?
18:11:51 <Eddi|zuHause> setting up a DMZ is only useful if your local (desk) computer and the one that runs the (OpenTTD) server are different from each other...
18:12:08 <Alberth> krinn: do you want to use an existing project or make a new one?
18:12:22 *** abchirk_ has joined #openttd
18:12:22 <Zuu> krinn: I don't remember either and have currently difficulties to test that.
18:12:31 <Eddi|zuHause> krinn: afair you can start new projects of your own if you're already a manager of an existing project
18:12:40 <Eddi|zuHause> but i have no clue what to do
18:13:05 <__ln__> i think that got truncated
18:13:06 <^Spike^> ... and we never setup a short url for that?
18:13:25 <Rubidium> you should, as this isn't even a complete URI
18:13:47 <^Spike^> Rubidium just amazes me... that ppl never though about a short url for that :)
18:14:01 <xDraKx> i have a power box here i set dmz ip for ps3 and a need to set other dhcp ip for my pc?
18:14:21 <^Spike^> could i get the complete url in some form/manner? (been busy in nginx confs anyway... and what can i break ;))
18:14:43 <Eddi|zuHause> famous last words :)
18:15:22 <^Spike^> then adding: I do this for a job won't help either? :)
18:15:37 <Zuu> ^Spike^: Follow Alberth's link and there is a link on that page with the full URL
18:15:59 <^Spike^> ffs..... and nobody... really though about a short link./... :)
18:16:30 <krinn> it's not like anyone does a new project query every 2s ^Spike^
18:16:57 <^Spike^> was thinking about that... as no-one should call his project that way ;)
18:17:26 <Alberth> make one, and hide it :)
18:17:35 <Eddi|zuHause> just make this a project, and everyone who wants one makes a ticket there?
18:17:51 <Zuu> As far as I can see, projects are in /project/*
18:17:55 <Alberth> afaik it is a project
18:17:58 <^Spike^> damn as i said... famous last words... broke it! :D
18:18:32 <^Spike^> ha... perfect... ask_new_project ;)
18:18:41 <^Spike^> much better short url more irc friendly :D
18:19:31 <^Spike^> dev.openttdcoop.org/ask_new_project ! :)
18:20:12 <^Spike^> krinn true... but the url is damn long... and can be made so much easier :)
18:20:16 <Eddi|zuHause> maybe that sentence should end with a ":"?
18:20:18 <^Spike^> and for me it was ehm... 2 mins work :D
18:20:44 <Eddi|zuHause> as in "More infos follow:"
18:21:07 <krinn> I see a "Please, create a ticket for a new project" link on the main page (so visible i didn't see it)
18:21:24 <^Spike^> well as i said.. just more IRC friendly :)
18:21:34 <krinn> so there's a link already, but it works only for humans with brain & eyes
18:27:38 <xDraKx> have a step by step to configure openttd multiplayer?
18:28:00 <Zuu> It would highly depend on the hardware you got
18:28:22 <krinn> This way with blinking and all i can see the link
18:29:07 <Eddi|zuHause> ooooh animated gifs :)
18:29:15 <Eddi|zuHause> and not the video-abuse kind
18:29:28 <krinn> and the bill gates is so awesome
18:29:56 <Alberth> and he's even retired :)
18:30:34 <krinn> love the down logos Created with notepad, the right way
18:32:28 <krinn> lmao on my geocities version i get lucky and get the floppy anim in front of the link
18:32:29 <Eddi|zuHause> that is really impossible to read
18:33:05 <krinn> i got a greenish/blue background with some pattern on it, it hurt bad
18:34:29 <Zuu> The site claims that the output is about 3000 times uglier than the input :-)
18:34:51 <krinn> lol it must be close to that number yes
18:44:37 <Eddi|zuHause> hm, looks like i had the exact same "code golf" conversation with andy half a year ago already :p
18:45:46 <krinn> aging bad Eddi|zuHause :)
18:46:34 <krinn> it's the start : keep speaking about the same things again & again
18:46:54 <krinn> next step would be running after nurses ^^
18:47:28 <Eddi|zuHause> andy is way older than i am :p
18:48:07 <krinn> everyone knows andy already run after nurses
18:48:26 *** andythenorth has joined #openttd
18:48:42 <krinn> see ? speaking about nurses, and who rush in ?
18:49:16 <Eddi|zuHause> and the worst part is: it was about the exact same line of code :p
18:55:32 <Alberth> you are so much faster than you think :p
18:56:06 <Eddi|zuHause> well, usually i think way faster than i am :p
19:10:18 *** Progman has joined #openttd
19:14:02 <xDraKx> Please someone, i set my port forwarding 3979 and 3978, open port on firewall too, now that black window " -d " dont show nothing when i start a multiplayer game, what i need to do?
19:15:57 <xDraKx> and now this port 3979 do a success
19:16:09 <xDraKx> but the game dont apears yet
19:16:34 <Alberth> I don't know how often the server refreshes the list
19:16:43 <krinn> Error: I could not see your service on 86.71.54.76 on port (3979)
19:16:44 *** Aristide has joined #openttd
19:17:11 <planetmaker> the list is updated rather quickly 5 minutes should suffice
19:17:12 <xDraKx> now dont show nothing when i start a multiplayer game
19:17:47 <krinn> your connect is refuse on that port, so your forwarding rules are bad
19:18:18 *** dryerlint has joined #openttd
19:18:30 *** Aristide has joined #openttd
19:18:52 <planetmaker> xDraKx, openttd -D
19:19:03 <planetmaker> it's case sensitive
19:19:17 <xDraKx> ok let my try this mom
19:21:32 <xDraKx> well now apears something good =D
19:23:12 <xDraKx> now the dedicated server is running but i m totally lost hauhaauh
19:23:18 <xDraKx> how to configure this name etc ?
19:24:00 <krinn> Zuu gave you a link to answer that upper
19:36:54 <xDraKx> how to delete a server from list what i have tried but the server not exist
19:39:59 <xDraKx> no before i try to connect by ip but the ip is in the server list
19:40:27 <krinn> in openttd.cfg at servers section i think
19:44:21 <xDraKx> how to set terrain tipe, size etc for the server?
19:49:01 * andythenorth has been trying it
19:49:13 <andythenorth> not intuitve, but effective
19:50:24 <xDraKx> for a dedicated server i can create a single and log out / restart dedicated server to use the last map/settings?
19:54:28 <xDraKx> One more thing, I see some online server that have a custom objectives, claim 4k pop other 15kkk company value etc, how can i do this in my server?
19:58:22 <xDraKx> where i can read more about this to make my own scripts??how to ?? etc
20:00:41 <xDraKx> i make this script with notepad note ++ etc?
20:02:51 <Eddi|zuHause> yes, you can make those with any editor
20:03:05 <Eddi|zuHause> there's a tutorial out there somewhere
20:03:11 <Xaroth|Work> probably on the wiki
20:03:41 <Eddi|zuHause> starting from scratch might be a bit complicated, though
20:03:59 <Xaroth|Work> might be easier to get an existing nogo script, and learn from that, indeed
20:04:21 <andythenorth> zuu has a 'start here' nogo script
20:04:39 <xDraKx> other thing for example the dedicated server, playing with friends and after save the game, how to load this game with all companies etc etc??? they will be saved in the server when i restart?
20:04:48 <Eddi|zuHause> yeah, if in doubt, talk to Zuu :)
20:04:53 <krinn> then i suggest don't use the tutorial gs, it's a tutorial gs to help users play openttd, but quiet complicated if you wish learn from it
20:04:58 <Xaroth|Work> if in doubt, harass Zuu :P
20:05:15 <krinn> if in no doubt, keep harassing Zuu
20:05:15 <Xaroth|Work> xDraKx: companies will be saved
20:05:17 <Xaroth|Work> players, will not.
20:05:27 <Xaroth|Work> so remind them to set a company password
20:05:32 <Eddi|zuHause> xDraKx: the server has "save" and "load" commands
20:05:34 <Xaroth|Work> so they can rejoin their company when reconnecting
20:05:53 <Eddi|zuHause> xDraKx: which you can access from your client via "rcon"
20:06:07 <krinn> discovering to setup a server + learning howto make a GS : someone will have a looooooonnnnnnnnnngggggggggggg night
20:06:20 <xDraKx> i dont need a dedicated server if i want to play the tradicional game only with friends yes? i can create the game in multiplayer directly?
20:06:54 <xDraKx> yes i m testing now this rcon comands =D
20:08:43 <xDraKx> now i just want to find something about scripting =D to develop some ideas
20:08:46 <Eddi|zuHause> xDraKx: yes, you can just host a multiplayer server from any client. just it will die if you quit.
20:09:43 <Eddi|zuHause> i guess nobody ever devised a protocol where another client takes over as the server
20:09:44 <xDraKx> where can i see some scripts example? openttd have an expecific area of this kind?
20:10:18 <Eddi|zuHause> xDraKx: there's an AI/Script section at the forum
20:10:43 <Xaroth|Work> Eddi|zuHause: i doubt that's possible in the current network setup ottd uses :P
20:11:18 <krinn> xDraKx, in the download content in openttd
20:11:18 <Eddi|zuHause> Xaroth|Work: all it really needs is open ports
20:11:38 <Eddi|zuHause> Xaroth|Work: every client has the whole game state anyway
20:11:55 <Xaroth|Work> and a good method of governing who becomes the new host
20:12:43 <Xaroth|Work> and conflict handling if clients miss out on game state updates
20:12:46 <Eddi|zuHause> yes, that's what a "protocol" is
20:12:56 <Xaroth|Work> more than just a protocol
20:13:00 <Xaroth|Work> also requires a fair bit of logic
20:13:31 <xDraKx> all u ty a lot for all information today and patience with this new member heehe
20:14:10 <Eddi|zuHause> a "protocol" is a set of rules/logic who does what in which situation
20:25:05 <xDraKx> what is the diff_custom?
20:25:18 <xDraKx> if i want to use this i need to add this line in the openttd.cfg?
20:25:40 <xDraKx> [gameopt] diff_custom = 2,2,1,3,300,2,0,2,0,1,2,0,1,0,0,0,0,0
