06:29:12 <__ln__> great, my luggage was just brought to my home door
06:29:42 <planetmaker> I still wonder who misses his towel. No-one complained yet :D
06:40:30 *** Devroush has joined #openttd
06:43:10 *** Twofish has joined #openttd
06:50:40 *** Pensacola has joined #openttd
07:15:44 <Xaroth|Work> I still wonder who would travel without his/her trusty towel
07:19:14 <planetmaker> yeah, unbelievable. And will be a catastrophy at next year's towel day
07:29:49 <Eddi|zuHause> planetmaker: fonso said it's his, but you can keep it
07:30:27 <planetmaker> I see, thanks. Missed that info
07:30:49 <planetmaker> when did he say so?
07:32:06 <Eddi|zuHause> [Sonntag, 28. Juli 2013] [23:11:30] <fonsinchen> The towel is mine. You can keep it. It has been used as saddle for the unicorn, though.
07:37:43 <planetmaker> someone seems to have turned on again the outside heating. Much to my dismay
07:38:24 <planetmaker> (one can always complain about weather ;-) )
07:51:00 *** SamanthaD has joined #openttd
07:56:02 *** Ristovski has joined #openttd
07:56:26 *** Devroush367 has joined #openttd
08:03:06 <dihedral> planetmaker, a world without weather would be terrible :-P
08:03:51 <Twofish> Well - depends on what "non-weather" you would have - and if it would be the same all over ...
08:04:03 <Twofish> (all over the planet / area / ...)
08:06:19 <dihedral> Twofish, that is what 'no weather' implies
08:07:38 <Twofish> Guess we had to want constant rain then ... :s
08:08:08 <Twofish> or would that pass over your "no weather" as well :p
08:12:59 <planetmaker> indeed it would, dihedral :-) Better some weather than none :-)
08:16:38 *** robotboy has joined #openttd
08:20:26 <SamanthaD> I'd find such a world chokingly difficult to live in
08:25:03 <dihedral> trying to handle replies from an openttd server when everything is threaded and async..... grrr
08:28:31 <planetmaker> yeah. Let's make it all one core only, one thread only ;-)
08:29:24 <Xaroth|Work> depends on your situation :P
08:30:42 <SamanthaD> dihedral: how important is real-time performance? You could write a routine that caches the replies, assembles them in causal order, and passes them on to the rest of the program?
08:35:01 <AquSe> What proggy you guys talkin' 'bout?
08:35:58 <SamanthaD> AquSe: I'm not entirely sure but I think it's the OpenTTD Coop configuration script
08:36:28 *** Aristide has joined #openttd
08:37:29 *** LordAro has joined #openttd
08:41:49 *** NeuhNeuh has joined #openttd
08:42:39 <Xaroth|Work> planetmaker: might have something interesting to show you today
08:43:59 *** tokai|mdlx has joined #openttd
08:48:34 <planetmaker> SamanthaD, an admin port client
08:49:24 <Xaroth|Work> oddly enough, it's related to that as well :P
08:51:18 <SamanthaD> Ah, I see... well, hopefully he gets things sorted out without having to thread the entire app
08:53:22 *** Devroush has joined #openttd
08:54:51 *** MatrixCL has joined #openttd
08:57:06 *** Devroush367 has joined #openttd
09:03:34 <dihedral> the app is already threaded
09:04:19 <dihedral> plugins are in separate threads, if a plugin executes a command from another plugin, that is a separate thread
09:04:45 <dihedral> with the aim that no plugin can be capable of killing the main app or another pluing
09:06:56 <SamanthaD> Well, carry on then. Without seeing your code I'd probably just waste your time with more suggestions.
09:07:16 <dihedral> it's on dev.openttdcoop.org
09:07:23 <dihedral> search for the projects joan, grapes and berries
09:09:36 <SamanthaD> thanks, I'll have a look through that
09:10:10 <SamanthaD> though, I'm not very good with Java
09:10:15 <SamanthaD> I don't think objectively ;)
09:10:59 *** Devroush has joined #openttd
09:13:25 *** r0b0tb0y has joined #openttd
09:17:57 <dihedral> SamanthaD, that just did not make much sense :-P
09:18:17 <dihedral> unless your arms are not joined to your sholders, your toes are all over your body and your brain....
09:18:23 <dihedral> TrueBrain, ^ i did it again :-D
09:18:36 <dihedral> and i quoted the song again :-D
09:21:35 <SamanthaD> dihedral: the joke is that Java takes object orientation to an extreme and I find the paradigm unnatural
09:26:19 <AquSe> make everything static huehue
09:40:42 *** Aristide has joined #openttd
09:42:26 <SamanthaD> NeuhNeuh: All hail Scheme!
09:45:03 *** Aristide has joined #openttd
09:45:51 *** Alberth has joined #openttd
09:45:51 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Alberth
09:48:29 <SamanthaD> oh, sorry, I'm doing well! How are you?
09:49:04 <SamanthaD> Sorry, I was playing with my trains and I'm building as fast as possible O.O
09:50:35 <Alberth> stop the time by pausing the game :p
09:52:56 <dihedral> Alberth, do you not have to enable a cheat for that? :-P
09:53:52 <SamanthaD> Alberth: problem isn't time, it's money. I'm only 16 years into a PAX only game
09:54:01 <SamanthaD> starting at 1900... money is tough :p
09:54:07 <Alberth> hi dihedral, not sure, I thought not, you can pause the game without cheating, and afaik enable build while paused in the settings
09:54:38 <SamanthaD> one that I always use. I hate feeling rushed
09:54:57 <Alberth> SamanthaD: ok, you play way more often than I am :)
09:55:26 <Alberth> SamanthaD: yeah, money is always a problem that distracts you from building in the start :(
09:55:50 <SamanthaD> still, I'm almost ready to link up the last of what is to be my trunk line!
09:56:04 <SamanthaD> still got to set up a couple local feeder lines but... other than that
09:59:56 <AquSe> How do you load a .sav in the dedi server?
10:00:08 <AquSe> It says there's no such file or directory.
10:00:24 <AquSe> I tried putting the save in the same folder as the server and also tried full path.
10:03:42 <AquSe> Oh, the server has the file directory already stated.
10:03:55 <AquSe> Need to use cd to move folders.
10:06:51 <SamanthaD> AquSe: Then you need to use the -R flag
10:09:18 <AquSe> When it says that a city grows every x days.
10:09:24 <Xaroth|Work> planetmaker: check my latest commit :)
10:09:54 <Xaroth|Work> (note that it requires an extra lib to run)
10:10:24 *** Aristide has joined #openttd
10:12:33 <SamanthaD> AquSe: It depends. It just builds new buildings. Depending on the buildings built...
10:12:48 <SamanthaD> AquSe: Also, if it has to build roads PLUS buildings or just buildings
10:14:54 *** TomyLobo has joined #openttd
10:16:01 <planetmaker> hm, Xaroth, what exactly does that script do?
10:16:12 <planetmaker> offer basically the console which I have when I'm server?
10:17:11 <Xaroth|Work> python openttd-admin.py --host=<host> --password=<password> to connect to it (or while running 'set host <host>' 'set password <password>' 'connect' )
10:17:23 <Xaroth|Work> help shows some commands
10:17:37 <Xaroth|Work> it's a work-in-progress
10:17:44 <Xaroth|Work> but I found it done enough to at least share it
10:21:25 <Xaroth|Work> chat should relay to the console, with say/msg/cmsg you can chat back; rcon obviously, and clients/companies will show the (from the program's perspective) the current short information about them
10:23:20 <planetmaker> I shall try to give it a try tonight
10:24:37 <Xaroth|Work> probably a bug or 20 in it, so don't expect too much :P
10:25:22 <AquSe> No way to build docks on water canals?
10:26:08 <AquSe> Just need to raise some lang
10:26:38 <Pinkbeast> AquSe: Hope you've got plenty of money. :-/
10:27:24 <AquSe> Lol, I did use like 60k.
10:32:39 <AquSe> Oh no, like 30 buses are getting old ):
10:33:15 <AquSe> Can you replace buses to their own version?
10:33:22 <AquSe> Because I don't have another passanger bus out.
10:33:32 <Pinkbeast> Autorenew takes care of that.
10:34:04 <Pinkbeast> The gotcha is you have to keep cash in hand to do it.
10:35:09 <Pinkbeast> AquSe: I don't know. If it's off, turn it on, not to be Captain Obvious.
10:35:37 <Pinkbeast> AquSe: Also, I don't think it interacts perfectly with no-servicing no-breakdowns setups. :-/
10:35:53 <AquSe> Well I could just send all buses for service
10:36:16 <Pinkbeast> Send one for service first to check it works. ;-)
10:38:56 <AquSe> Lemme see if I can figure out how to turn it on the dedi.
10:41:01 <Pinkbeast> AquSe: Don't forget that the vehicle age warnings turn up when a vehicle approaches its maximum age, but the setting for autorenew age can be some time after that.
10:45:39 <AquSe> The company name has to be in quotes, rite?
10:49:00 <AquSe> That's not the name slot, that's where to put it under.
10:49:10 <AquSe> Or rather where it is under.
10:59:12 <dihedral> Xaroth, there are native chat packets for the admin network - you need not use rcon for that :)

11:36:31 <Alberth> too many non-paying passengers? :)
11:36:55 <AquSe> Elukka: You can create cow planes? :3
11:37:12 <Elukka> probably, with one of the plane grfs
11:37:16 <Elukka> not my screenshot, just thought it was funny
11:39:38 *** Aristide has joined #openttd
11:48:50 <__ln__> planetmaker: what's everyone's share of the food, in €?
11:51:43 <AquSe> Guys, any must-have NewGRFs? Just those that don't make the game easier.
11:53:21 <__ln__> dunno, all i use is trams.
11:53:48 <AquSe> K, I'll just get the trams for nao.
11:55:58 <AquSe> They auto-load once they're in the newGRF folder, rite?
11:57:10 <AquSe> Nope, they don't need to go into the NewGRF menu too.
12:05:51 *** amiller has joined #openttd
12:13:44 <planetmaker> __ln__, let me find out by how much we sponsor the meeting :-)
12:14:04 <planetmaker> without sponsoring I'd say like 12€ / pp
12:23:04 <dihedral> planetmaker, that sounds very easy :_)
12:23:16 <dihedral> uh - that smily has a displassed nose
12:24:05 *** parkette has joined #openttd
12:28:42 <SamanthaD> *glee* Grew my city to a pop of 10,000 and the mother of all muni systems is at about 10% capacity!
12:31:33 <AquSe> Anybody know if GRVTS GRF is fairly balanced?
12:34:45 <Alberth> no idea about GRVTS, but in general, a Grf is balanced with itself, and not much else
12:36:23 <AquSe> So you're saying turn off default and only leave the GRF?
12:38:04 <Alberth> how did you come up with that conclusion???
12:38:33 <Alberth> but never mind, the simplest way to find out what you ask is by trying it for yourself
12:39:18 <Alberth> newgrf choices are highly personal, everybody wants something different from them
12:39:46 <Alberth> so there are no universal best or balanced or whatever property you want

13:26:35 <AquSe> 480 second ping timeout on this server.
13:26:50 <AquSe> Never seen a time out that high @.@
13:29:30 <Alberth> 8 minutes? quite normal, probably some default setting
13:30:06 <TWerkhoven> its not actually shown on all servers though
13:30:12 <TWerkhoven> some networks you just see ping timeout
13:33:05 <AquSe> Is 15 companies the max on a server?
13:33:46 <planetmaker> also without server

14:02:13 <SamanthaD> how many ticks to a day?
14:02:49 <MNIM> Well, assuming a clock ticks twice per second
14:02:56 <MNIM> that would be 2x60x60x24
14:03:05 *** Aristide has joined #openttd
14:03:14 <SamanthaD> MNIM: I meant game ticks
14:03:38 <MNIM> Which according to my calculator equals 172800
14:03:48 <MNIM> Well, you should've said so!
14:03:59 <MNIM> now I went through all that trouble to take out my calculator!
14:05:32 <SamanthaD> I shortcut my calculator to ctrl+c
14:06:38 <TWerkhoven> my keyboard comes with built-in calc
14:06:46 <Alberth> better than shortcircuit :)

14:13:30 <SamanthaD> yeah, but the calculator that my computer uses has a tape history ;)
14:15:36 <SamanthaD> question: why would modifying the timetabling and vehicle orders code make a save game incompatible?
14:16:05 <SamanthaD> I notice that Slim Timetables changes the savegame version but... I recently removed it and now I'm kicking myself
14:16:19 <SamanthaD> I'd like to import my savegame into a game that has it compiled back in
14:17:24 <SamanthaD> managing my own timetables is DRIVING ME INSANE
14:34:28 <Lakie> Is there a way to identify if an installed linux kernel is either 32bit or 64bit from within linux?

14:34:46 <planetmaker> SamanthaD, a time table needs information stored
14:34:56 <Pinkbeast> Lakie: Installed or running?
14:35:07 <planetmaker> Lakie, uname -a should tell you
14:35:31 <SamanthaD> planetmaker: ah... oh well... thank you!
14:36:26 *** Aristide has joined #openttd
14:37:06 <planetmaker> actually ... uname -m is easier
14:37:41 <planetmaker> or getconf LONG_BIT
14:37:47 <planetmaker> even easier possibly
14:40:04 <Lakie> Heh, okay. Both are quite simple in output. :)

15:04:03 <Xaroth|Work> TWerkhoven: seen my last commits for libottdadmin2?
15:04:08 <Xaroth|Work> think some of that could be useful for you too
15:04:56 <Eddi|zuHause> SamanthaD: well if you know exactly what was changed in that savegame version, you can reverse that
15:05:25 <SamanthaD> Eddi|zuHause: thanks but... probably too much work
15:05:25 <TWerkhoven> yeah, ive updated my copy too
15:05:30 <Eddi|zuHause> but it's easier to just stick to the version it was compiled with
15:06:26 <TWerkhoven> i think instead of making soapclient(adminclient), im gonna copy adminclient into soapclient, and make soapclient(adminconnection)
15:06:27 <Eddi|zuHause> SamanthaD: i recently successfully converted a game that used an old paxdest patch, plus yapp, plus some minor stuff (daylength, etc.)
15:06:37 <Xaroth|Work> TWerkhoven: i'm contemplating making the extensions to the AdminClient part of the lib, as in, a TrackingClient
15:06:44 <Xaroth|Work> that keeps track of all clients and companies, etc.
15:07:55 <TWerkhoven> thats future stuff, right?
15:08:09 <TWerkhoven> nvm, seems i missed an update
15:09:08 <TWerkhoven> i was thinking a list that contains client_id, name, company_id
15:09:32 <planetmaker> Xaroth, that makes perfect sense to me :-)
15:11:57 <Xaroth|Work> TWerkhoven: check class ExtendedAdminConnection in openttd-admin.py
15:12:01 <Xaroth|Work> it deos exactly that
15:12:07 <TWerkhoven> yeah, im just browsing that
15:12:23 <Xaroth|Work> it sets update frequencies for the right stuff upon connect, so that it can keep track of who's connected etc
15:12:40 <Xaroth|Work> even the date, for as extremely not useful as that information is :P
15:13:08 <TWerkhoven> one could probably poll that on somebody requesting the date
15:14:11 <Xaroth|Work> yeeaaahh.. but that would mean having to do special stuff
15:15:12 <Xaroth|Work> I somewhat do that alreayd with companies and clients joining
15:15:40 <Xaroth|Work> i.e. keep track of who we just saw joining and asked info for, so we can fire clientjoined a 2nd time with proper information
15:17:38 <TWerkhoven> i take it getting serverclientinfo (automatically, not requesting it) before serverclientjoin isnt a given?
15:18:19 <Xaroth|Work> hm, not sure how that works
15:18:49 <TWerkhoven> with all the stuff set to auto, you will receive clientinfo automatically anyway anytime someone joins
15:18:58 <TWerkhoven> just not always before i think
15:19:14 <Xaroth|Work> I didn't get that to work properly, maybe I did something wrong
15:19:17 <TWerkhoven> so you could just loop untill client_id has valid nick in your internal tracker
15:20:29 <TWerkhoven> console seems to mostly copy things which are already sent via other updateTypes btw
15:20:35 <TWerkhoven> hence why i took it out of mine
15:22:55 <TWerkhoven> only thing youre really missing is when server is queried with serverbrowser
15:23:16 <Xaroth|Work> yeh, that's not really useful anyhow
15:23:35 <TWerkhoven> now that ive turned it on for a bit, i do notice where all those clienterrors are coming from
15:23:47 <Xaroth|Work> I mean, I'd almost go as far as propose a patch to silence that console message unless debug is set up higher
15:23:56 <Xaroth|Work> clienterrors happen before connecting I think
15:23:59 <Xaroth|Work> for some odd reason
15:24:08 <Xaroth|Work> client connects, disconnects, then connects again and joins
15:24:22 <Xaroth|Work> I -think- that happens when you're in the select-where-you-want-to-join menu
15:24:24 <TWerkhoven> also when serverbrowser queries a server, it doesnt properly disconnect, the connection is just discarded
15:24:30 <TWerkhoven> yes, serverbrowser
15:24:38 <TWerkhoven> and/or companyselection
15:25:13 <TWerkhoven> i just noticed i got a lot of clienterror 3's, which i think i deciphered into connection_lost
15:25:19 <TWerkhoven> but dont quote me on that
15:27:29 <Xaroth|Work> network_type.h @ line 104
15:27:34 <TWerkhoven> NETWORK_ERROR_CONNECTION_LOST actually, thats as fas back as i could track it in ottd's src
15:28:47 <TWerkhoven> im guessing it takes its number from position in the enum there
15:28:53 <TWerkhoven> network_error_general being -
15:29:06 <Xaroth|Work> all enums start at 0x00 unless otherwise specified
15:31:36 <Xaroth|Work> I'm adding the enum to enums.py
15:33:12 <TWerkhoven> coping from the 1st iteration of libottdadmin, or typing em in again based on ottd's src?
15:33:32 <Xaroth|Work> copy/pasting from ottd source
15:33:34 <TWerkhoven> the 1st lib had a lot more enums already there
15:33:37 <Xaroth|Work> then migrating it to python
15:33:47 <Xaroth|Work> yeah, I kinda went over-the-top there
15:34:07 <Xaroth|Work> back when I had my obsession with using \t instead of spaces....
15:36:19 <TWerkhoven> it *is* neatly aligned
15:38:27 <Xaroth|Work> severely depends on how big you set your tabs :P
15:38:45 <Xaroth|Work> looks like crap on all but the one you used back then :P
15:38:51 <Xaroth|Work> with spaces it -always- looks neat
15:38:58 <TWerkhoven> i think i have my notepad set to convert all tabs to 4 spaces
15:39:07 <Xaroth|Work> and IDEs like sublime text can convert automatically
15:40:41 <Xaroth|Work> old code was, iirc, set to 8
15:40:53 <Xaroth|Work> using 4, it looks a bit wobbly
15:41:59 <Xaroth|Work> added ErrorCode and Colour enums
15:42:05 <TWerkhoven> i just went with some python guidelines i found somewhere
15:42:16 <Xaroth|Work> I highly advise Sublime Text 3
15:42:19 <TWerkhoven> i think i used 2 spaces last time i coded c++
15:42:33 <Xaroth|Work> it's a real lightweight and smooth editor
15:42:35 <TWerkhoven> i use notepad++ atm, but sublime does look a good competitor
15:42:44 <Xaroth|Work> it's sooo much smoother for me
15:43:17 <TWerkhoven> i didnt realize text editors had fps issues
15:43:25 <TWerkhoven> unless your running word on a 386 maybe
15:43:56 <Xaroth|Work> try scrolling through a file with hundreds upon hundreds of lines of code
15:44:08 <TWerkhoven> yeah, the preview pane looks nice
15:44:38 <TWerkhoven> though by that time i tend to sue ctrl+f, or scroll to the linenumber depending on what im looking for
15:48:01 <TWerkhoven> notepad++ seems a tad cheaper
15:48:17 <Xaroth|Work> it's a bit like winrar
15:48:37 <Xaroth|Work> meh, every umzeenth save it asks you to buy
15:48:43 <Xaroth|Work> hit esc, continue
15:49:02 <Xaroth|Work> though I am tempted at buying it at some point
15:51:41 <TWerkhoven> not worth any money just to work on soap

16:34:14 <Eddi|zuHause> i just do "sshfs source target", and have been doing that for years, just the past few weeks it started to randomly exit
16:34:39 <frosch123> it depends on what features the software uses, with which you access the filesystem
16:34:54 <frosch123> scp (which sshfs) uses, does not support everything
16:35:04 <frosch123> take a look at the "-o workaround= ..." stuff
16:35:30 <Eddi|zuHause> so it might be a new program i'm using that accesses the stuff weirdly?
16:35:39 <frosch123> e.g. when working with subversion in a checkout via sshfs, it is completely normal that you need -o workaround=rename

18:02:47 <dudel> i got a question. i like the chill patch pack, cause it got the copy/paste thingy in it. but its for such an old version, is there anything close to it for a newer one?
18:04:05 <Eddi|zuHause> there's the russian "spring 2013" patchpack, which may or may not be anywhere near stable (as in it does or does not crash)
18:06:00 <dudel> but when its russian, can i use it for english version? and does it have the copy/paste? i rly like it for stations/junctions ect. as im liking to buidl those symmetry anyway and i do not play often enough to rember all the different build ups
18:06:12 *** sla_ro|master has joined #openttd
18:06:47 <Eddi|zuHause> just because it's made by russians doesn't mean it can't use other translations
18:07:36 <SamanthaD> is there any way I can get cargodist to not pile cargo on a station with a bad connection?!
18:08:09 <Eddi|zuHause> don't have stations with bad connections :p
18:08:11 <Alberth> give it alternative routes
18:08:36 <SamanthaD> they do have alternative routes
18:08:51 <SamanthaD> it's just that I have a long chain of train stations with a lousy airport at each end
18:09:04 <dudel> ty, looks quite interesting but unfortunaly it doesnt have copy paste :(
18:09:09 <SamanthaD> and the trains are grabbing the cargo and dumping it at the airports, FAR exceeding what the airports can handle
18:09:31 <Alberth> add more airports at both ends :)
18:09:48 <Eddi|zuHause> dudel: then you're probably better of learning to compile yourself and update the copy-paste patch
18:09:59 <SamanthaD> though... the only airport I have access to is "small airport"
18:10:02 *** LordAro has joined #openttd
18:10:03 <Pinkbeast> cargodist will eventually figure out the link has low capacity
18:10:03 <Alberth> cdist will nicely distributes the flow over the different airports
18:10:21 <Eddi|zuHause> SamanthaD: cargodist and planes don't mix well
18:10:27 <SamanthaD> oh, it will? good, so I'll just wait then and see if it resolves it self
18:10:32 <Pinkbeast> But pax have to be sent _somewhere_ - if this link is the only one available, they'll use it.
18:11:15 <Alberth> SamanthaD: you know you can see the capacity use both in the minimap and in the main view?
18:11:33 <SamanthaD> Alberth: yup! Gotta love it!
18:12:07 <SamanthaD> Cargodist hasn't quite figured out that it's overloaded it to the point of absurdity
18:12:21 <Pinkbeast> SamanthaD: Do the offending pax have anywhere _else_ to go?
18:13:08 <Alberth> cdist is bad at handling changes in the connections, it takes a long time to change
18:13:15 <SamanthaD> Pinkbeast: yes. See, I have this huge 20,000 pop city with a major train station at one end and the airport at the other. Local trains connect them. The other airport is connected to the main train station at the other end
18:13:43 <SamanthaD> actually... it's connected to a train station that feeds the main train station
18:14:00 <Pinkbeast> That's odd, you'd expect most pax to make local journeys...
18:14:16 <Eddi|zuHause> there's a setting for that
18:14:17 <SamanthaD> as I said... 20,000 population city ;)
18:14:28 <SamanthaD> it generates an obscene amount of PAX
18:14:44 <SamanthaD> I know, I love it n_n
18:14:51 <Pinkbeast> Eddi|zuHause: Indeed. But beyond that, cargodist is meant to work with the link capacities actually available...
18:15:01 <Eddi|zuHause> SamanthaD: there isn't really any solution besides throwing more capacity at it
18:15:22 <Eddi|zuHause> Pinkbeast: but it can't adjust the passenger generation
18:15:22 <Pinkbeast> Or give them somewhere else to go?
18:15:23 <SamanthaD> Eddi|zuHause: Thanks, I'll do that!
18:15:37 <Eddi|zuHause> so eventually the people are piling up at the weakest link in the network
18:15:42 <Pinkbeast> Eddi|zuHause: Yes, but why don't they mostly make journeys internal to the city?
18:15:58 <Eddi|zuHause> Pinkbeast: "effect of distance on demand"
18:16:23 <SamanthaD> Pinkbeast: They *ARE* mostly making journeys internal to the city. Perhaps you don't quite have a grasp on how much PAX a city that size generates.
18:16:35 <Pinkbeast> Eddi|zuHause: yes, but it's meant to work with the link capacities actually available... we've just gone around in a circle, with you telling me about an option I already know about.
18:16:46 <Pinkbeast> SamanthaD: Actually it may surprise you to learn I have played the game before.
18:17:38 <Eddi|zuHause> Pinkbeast: but load balancing can only work if there are leftover capacities anywhere. if everything is congested, no amount of link shifting will work
18:17:55 <Pinkbeast> Eddi|zuHause: But there is a leftover capacity here; send pax locally inside the city.
18:18:26 <Pinkbeast> "distance on demand" is meant to determine what happens when links aren't full - how much should we send down a long link vs a short one.
18:18:35 <Eddi|zuHause> Pinkbeast: you're thinking backwards. first, passengers are generated, then passengers get a destination, then they look for a link towards that destination
18:18:40 <SamanthaD> by the way, what's generally better: one international airport or two metro airports?
18:19:32 <Eddi|zuHause> "the train to Berlin is always so full, i go to Munich instead" is not how it works
18:19:59 <Pinkbeast> Eddi|zuHause: with humans, but OTTD pax aren't humans - and absent cargodist they're like lumps of coal. But indeed, I was mistaken.
18:20:24 <Pinkbeast> I was thinking of very old stabs at cargodist where pax still had _no_ volition, so they'd go wherever there was capacity.
18:21:44 <Pinkbeast> Eddi|zuHause: Sorry, my misunderstanding.

19:10:36 <Xaroth|Work> dihedral: you know this; on new map, all admin clients are disconnected?
19:11:36 <Xaroth|Work> only on non-dedicated servers
19:22:01 <TWerkhoven> on dedicated, all you get is a new welcome packet afaik
19:29:57 <Xaroth|Work> you get two, actually
19:30:12 <Xaroth|Work> a shutdown, followed by a new map
19:30:26 <Xaroth|Work> it's just a shutdown
19:30:29 <Xaroth|Work> followed by a disconnect
19:31:46 *** NeuhNeuh has joined #openttd
19:35:20 <Xaroth|Work> dihedral: at least, that's what the code looks to me
19:35:44 <Xaroth|Work> TWerkhoven: going to change the behavior of poll in the new tracking admin a tad, that it does multiple packets at once if there's time
19:35:49 <Xaroth|Work> it always breaks off after timeout
19:36:01 <planetmaker> __ln__, I guess the meeting is free of charge for you (and all others)
19:36:09 <dihedral> i wonder what causes the different behaviour
19:36:32 <dihedral> i would assume closing sockets, but that's just a wild guess and with that i could of course be totally off, also
19:36:35 <Xaroth|Work> dihedral: non-dedidated clients stop being a server during a map restart
19:36:46 <dihedral> planetmaker, you guys rock
19:36:49 <Xaroth|Work> dedicated clients do not
19:36:58 <Xaroth|Work> they just start a new map as per the config, and start
19:37:34 <dihedral> at least you get the shutdown packet :-D
19:37:38 <__ln__> planetmaker: alright, cool
19:38:13 <Xaroth|Work> ooh, this works nice
19:38:33 <Xaroth|Work> now it just tries to empty the recv queue in the time given
19:38:40 <dihedral> actually i consider it odd though for non dedicated clients do open the admin port
19:38:48 <Xaroth|Work> rather look if there's 1 packet to receive, and receive that one (not caring for any other packet)
19:39:18 <dihedral> i mean - why would you have admin connected to non dedicated :-P
19:41:00 <TWerkhoven> same goes for rcon, does rcon work on non-dedicated server?
19:41:25 <TWerkhoven> course, you might run the server on your home pc, but still want to admin it from work when your not actually near the pc
19:42:16 <TWerkhoven> or when you switch to laptop even
19:56:02 <TWerkhoven> Xaroth: in enums.py, class ClientID, you may wish to add ALL = 0xFFFFFFFF #< For requesting clientInfo on all clients
19:58:07 <dihedral> TWerkhoven, if you want to run a server ... you should use a dedicated one :-P
19:58:33 <TWerkhoven> most ppl would do so yes
19:58:52 <TWerkhoven> but you always have to anticipate those few that dont do as the masses
20:08:57 <Xaroth|Work> like, the admin connection i used for the openttd-admin.pu script, only made from scratch, and cleaned up a lot
20:09:16 <Xaroth|Work> decorator funkyness to reduce the amount of useless lines :)
20:18:12 <AquSe> How the hell do you create a new object/instance of in Python? Equivalent of class1 obj1 = new class1() in Java. Python channel ain't responding QQ
20:18:51 <Alberth> no useless 'new' clutter :)
20:19:01 <Xaroth|Work> no useless type naming either :P
20:19:09 <Xaroth|Work> x = Klass1() ; x = Klass2()
20:19:16 <AquSe> I just didn't do the paranthesis :3
20:19:44 <Alberth> AquSe: the class is also an object :p
20:19:53 <Xaroth|Work> just like a function is an object :P
20:20:44 <Xaroth|Work> wait until you get to decorators
20:21:25 <AquSe> Never heard of them b4, lemme guugle
20:21:48 <Xaroth|Work> check the link I put up
20:21:54 <Xaroth|Work> all the @handles_packet lines are decorators
20:25:06 <AquSe> I'm just making something in Python, I don't know why I decided to make it in Python instead of Java that I already know.
20:25:38 <AquSe> Well, gotta learn it somehow.
20:25:48 <Alberth> to understand Python? :)
20:27:03 <Alberth> java works better for large programs (50,000+ lines Python), and runs a LOT faster
20:27:19 <Xaroth|Work> java -can- run a lot faster
20:28:12 <Alberth> if you build the same program in python and in java, java will win
20:28:39 <Xaroth|Work> pypy/cython can help a lot
20:28:52 <Xaroth|Work> python => C => epic speeds
20:28:56 <Xaroth|Work> .. if you do it properly
20:29:14 <AquSe> Btw, in Python what's the ".this" If you for example pass down link1 and you have link1 declared and want to set the link1 that you passed down to link1 that is in.
20:29:29 <Xaroth|Work> check my link; notice all class methods have self as first arg
20:29:52 <AquSe> And does anybody know what's up with #Python on Free-Node, it redirects me to #Python-Unregistered and I can't deliver messaged.
20:30:07 <Alberth> AquSe: there is no implicit this, you have to give it as first argument to the methods. By convention it is 'self'
20:30:08 <Xaroth|Work> you need to register your nick
20:30:25 <murr4y> then you need to authenticate
20:30:29 <Alberth> then you need to identify yourself :)

21:07:44 <planetmaker> he, I guess results will be pretty bad, if I boot from USB disk and then unplug it ;-)
21:08:07 <Xaroth|Work> if your system can load it all in ram before disconnecting
21:08:10 <Xaroth|Work> .. and can run from ram
21:09:00 <planetmaker> I somehow doubt that all of osx 10.4 fits in 2GB ram
