IRC logs for #openttd on OFTC at 2013-12-02
            
00:00:06 <Eddi|zuHause> i don't know if they used that, but i wrote a concept here: http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=53511
00:00:13 <Eddi|zuHause> CETS is based on that
00:00:58 <Eddi|zuHause> https://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/cets
00:05:31 *** roboboy has joined #openttd
00:06:38 <Killer11> I played arround with it and I just don't think OpenTTD is ready for this scale, it has the same problem that LongVehicles has
00:06:55 <Killer11> all looks fine until vehicles go trough tunnels/bridges/etc
00:07:12 <Killer11> then glitches appear because of the engien limitations and it just looks distracting
00:08:14 <Killer11> also if you redraw trains at that scale they become gigantic in comparison to everything else, i guess it's just a matter of taste and I preffer the TTD distorted scale
00:08:26 <Killer11> the game was just built for it
00:14:03 <Killer11> I wonder if that set will ever include TEM-TMH or TEM-LTH from what i can tell those version of the TEM shunter were an exclusive Lithuanian order but damn do they look pretty
00:16:26 <Killer11> http://trainspo.com/photo/45007/?list=class http://trainspo.com/photo/43645/?list=class respectively
00:21:41 <Eddi|zuHause> Killer11: my concept definetely solves the tunnel/bridge problem
00:22:17 <Killer11> they don't seem to use it in the set tho, or at least haven't implemented it yet
00:22:22 <Eddi|zuHause> Killer11: try out CETS
00:22:36 <Eddi|zuHause> it's fully playable, even though the graphics are mostly "missing"
00:23:04 <Killer11> thanks, will do
00:23:19 <Eddi|zuHause> use the prussian vehicles from ~1880-1920 for best effects :)

09:06:19 <djgummikuh> Heya!
09:06:37 <djgummikuh> I just updated my server to 1.3.3 and noticed that it identifies itself as 1.3.2
09:06:56 <djgummikuh> did I do somethign wrong? I copied the files from my 1.3.2 server's baseset folder over to 1.3.3 was that not correct?
09:08:26 <blathijs> djgummikuh: The latter shouldn't affect the version
09:08:26 <planetmaker> copying the baseset or newgrf folders is not wrong
09:08:35 <blathijs> djgummikuh: How did you update the server? Did you restart it?
09:08:40 <planetmaker> but if it says it's 1.3.2 it likely is and you started the wrong binary
09:08:43 <djgummikuh> i stopped it
09:08:52 <djgummikuh> moved my openttd folder to openttd.132 and then the new one to openttd
09:08:55 <djgummikuh> then I started it again
09:09:06 <djgummikuh> ah and I copied the baseset folder as described
09:09:12 <planetmaker> maybe windows is more intelligent than you assume?
09:09:15 <djgummikuh> linux
09:09:25 <planetmaker> better then
09:09:34 <djgummikuh> I DO however use the user's home/.openttd folder for configuration (since the user is for this game only anyways)
09:09:35 <planetmaker> and how did you start it?
09:09:39 <djgummikuh> openttd -D
09:09:58 <planetmaker> right, if you use ~/.openttd/baseset for basesets... why do you need to move those?
09:10:05 <djgummikuh> uuhm... hold on
09:10:18 <djgummikuh> nah that folder is empty
09:10:30 <planetmaker> put your base set there
09:10:33 <djgummikuh> good point
09:10:38 <djgummikuh> did not even see that this folder existed there :)
09:10:40 <planetmaker> anyway, that's beside the point
09:12:00 <djgummikuh> ok
09:12:01 <planetmaker> what's the first line of output reported by ~/openttd/openttd -h
09:12:05 *** retro|cz has joined #openttd
09:12:11 <djgummikuh> I deleted everything and did it again and now it identifies as 1.3.3
09:12:16 <planetmaker> or whereever your new binary resides
09:12:24 <djgummikuh> sesms I must've screwed something up last time around..
09:12:34 <djgummikuh> that baseset suggestion was a good one though, makes updating easier in the future
09:14:04 <djgummikuh> great, working now.
09:14:13 <planetmaker> djgummikuh, the ~/.openttd folder and its sub-folders are used automatically, if the openttd.cfg is found in ~/.openttd
09:14:17 <planetmaker> and not next to the binary
09:14:30 <planetmaker> especially interesting for download content
09:17:14 *** Twofish has joined #openttd
09:26:10 *** GriffinOneTwo has quit IRC
09:28:16 *** DarkAceZ has quit IRC
09:44:50 <djgummikuh> planetmaker: yeah. Though I did not think it would be of much value for a pure dedicated server
09:44:54 <djgummikuh> seems I was wrong :9
09:45:34 <djgummikuh> mmh.. I'm still looking for someone who urgently wants to write me a squirrel script to allow me to add or deduct money from a company via the admin port :)
09:45:38 <djgummikuh> feel bored? ;)
09:47:37 <Xaroth|Work> wait, you want to write it, or you want to find somebody to write it
09:47:44 <djgummikuh> the latter ;)
09:49:23 <djgummikuh> I'm to lazy to learn squirrel for that :)
09:51:34 <Xaroth|Work> heh
09:53:43 <planetmaker> you use the admin port already?
09:54:21 *** DarkAceZ has joined #openttd
09:59:17 <djgummikuh> planetmaker: yes
09:59:26 <djgummikuh> if you want, join me on openttd.letsplayonline.eu
09:59:41 <djgummikuh> though so far all i can do is send chat messages to and fro our MC server
10:00:02 <djgummikuh> next step would be user authentication against our word-press database to prevent name-theft of registered
10:00:09 <djgummikuh> *users
10:01:28 <djgummikuh> after-the-next step would be to integrate the webchat of our 2 moons to allow openttd players to also chat with 2 moons players.
10:01:49 <djgummikuh> and as soon as 1.4 comes out I'm planning on some (yet to be developed) money transfer between those games (and all that might come till then ;) )
10:02:21 *** TomyLobo has quit IRC
10:02:41 <djgummikuh> maybe winning in openttd gains you some kind of community currency that you can spend on premium features (also yet to be developed, we're still at an early stage ;) )
10:03:18 <V453000> all I can say is wtf :-D
10:03:24 <djgummikuh> why? :)
10:04:24 <Xaroth|Work> you're not going to get much of a community if the site is german only tbqfh
10:04:46 <V453000> that too :d
10:04:49 <djgummikuh> tbqfh
10:04:58 <Xaroth|Work> to be quite fooking honest
10:05:02 <djgummikuh> ah i c
10:05:17 <Xaroth|Work> don't get me wrong, the idea is great
10:05:31 <djgummikuh> we're working on that, though we already have (or better: had) international players.
10:05:46 <djgummikuh> There was some kind of mutiny about a month back that crippled us badly... Still recoveringn from taht.
10:06:04 <Xaroth|Work> not surprising, seeing you mainly do minecraft
10:06:12 <djgummikuh> Still we already have a ~300 players userbase for MC alone which currently slowly expands into 2moons.
10:06:19 <djgummikuh> well yeah that's where it started
10:06:51 <djgummikuh> the idea of expanding to other games only came after 90% of the team decided to screw us from behind and delete our servers and start a new project...
10:07:20 <Xaroth|Work> that too, doesn't surprise me with the mc background
10:07:43 <Xaroth|Work> for some reason most people who play mc have -very- low standards when it comes to behavior and human interaction :|
10:07:50 <djgummikuh> well... actually the team is not so much to blame.. one of the former owners is weird in his head to say the least...
10:07:54 <Xaroth|Work> right up the level of CoD kiddies :|
10:07:57 <djgummikuh> Xaroth|Work: hey I play MC too :)
10:08:04 <Xaroth|Work> djgummikuh: i said most, not all
10:08:06 <Xaroth|Work> I play MC too
10:08:13 <djgummikuh> well :) care to join lpo? ^^
10:08:18 <Xaroth|Work> heh, no thanks
10:08:25 <Xaroth|Work> not enough mods for my liking
10:08:33 <djgummikuh> too bad.
10:08:41 <djgummikuh> mods as in modification or mods as in moderators?
10:08:53 <Xaroth|Work> former
10:08:55 <djgummikuh> we're working on both
10:09:20 <djgummikuh> we happen to still have a FTB Ultimate running, that should be enough mods for everyone but we're shutting it down due to excessive hardware use of that server.
10:09:36 <Xaroth|Work> heh, yeh, ftb ultimate tends to use a bit
10:09:40 <Xaroth|Work> it's fun though
10:09:49 <djgummikuh> yeah too bad redpower got kicked in unleashed
10:09:59 <djgummikuh> we also had 2 unleashed server but they were deleted when the morons fled
10:10:01 <Xaroth|Work> rp2 was a downward spiral anyhow
10:10:28 <Xaroth|Work> there are dozens of mods around now that provide similar if not better variants
10:10:41 <djgummikuh> well I liked her computers :)
10:10:49 <djgummikuh> anyways you also can mod vanilla mc
10:10:57 <djgummikuh> just not too much with graphics and such
10:11:19 <djgummikuh> and I don't know if you ever wrote a mod for MC but writing for Forge is a PITA to say the least
10:11:25 <Xaroth|Work> meh, not too bad
10:11:52 <djgummikuh> writing for bukkit is much much more elegant and less clumsy (no obfuscation and stuff like that required)
10:14:14 <planetmaker> out of interest: djgummikuh, what do you use to connect to admin port?
10:14:45 *** GriffinOneTwo has joined #openttd
10:15:08 <djgummikuh> joan iirc.
10:15:22 <djgummikuh> I extracted the classes and threw them into my project so I can't tell for 100%
10:15:36 <Xaroth|Work> is it java or python
10:15:39 <djgummikuh> basically I customized the SimpleConsole demo application that shipped with joan and adapted it
10:15:42 <Xaroth|Work> if java: joan, else libottdadmin2
10:15:42 <djgummikuh> it's java
10:15:56 <djgummikuh> that's what so neat about it - i can run it directly in the Minecraft server which also is java :)
10:16:02 *** GriffinOneTwo has quit IRC
10:16:34 <Xaroth|Work> crashing a minecraft server from within openttd, can't wait to see that one happen
10:17:04 * djgummikuh adds Xaroth|Work to his blacklist
10:18:28 <Xaroth|Work> lol
10:18:33 <Xaroth|Work> like crashing a mc server is -that- hard :|
10:19:02 <djgummikuh> mmh well I would guess so given the limited possibilities you have via my plugin :)
10:19:20 <djgummikuh> though spamming might be a problem... but since the plugin is mine I can easily adapt when need is apparent
10:19:22 <Xaroth|Work> it would be much more challenging to crash openttd from within minecraft that way

11:28:23 <planetmaker> we totally need more servers: Servers registered as on 2013-12-02 11:20:53 UTC. There are 82 clients, 241 IPv4 servers and 52 IPv6 servers. ;-)
11:28:25 *** montalvo has joined #openttd
11:34:38 <djgummikuh> yeah :-( You need to recruit new playes
11:34:50 <djgummikuh> I'm trying to deliver my share ;)
11:35:58 <djgummikuh> by the way openttd really should have some kind of unique identifier (like these opensource q3 engine based games like xonotic, tremulous, unvanquished and so on provide) for easier user management.
11:37:09 <djgummikuh> I believe xonotic even has a public/private key pair which is used to identify a client with the server.
11:38:22 <Xaroth|Work> there's a plan for that, actually
11:39:05 <Xaroth|Work> but plans vs reality, well.. they often aren't as linear as one would think

11:55:31 *** DarkAceZ has quit IRC
11:56:38 <__ln__> anyone been to the Berlin airshow?
11:56:55 <planetmaker> few years ago, yes
11:58:16 <__ln__> was there enough to see?
12:01:01 <planetmaker> well, sufficient for a day for sure. But then, for me it's a quick and easy trip, less than 2 hours one-way
12:01:03 <V453000> is Berlin not enough to see on itself? :P
12:01:55 <__ln__> was there some aerobatics team performing with fighters?
12:02:21 <planetmaker> at least in one of the years I've been there, yes. I think also in the other
12:02:43 <planetmaker> they were then showing the eurofighter compete with Mig and Phantom
12:03:23 <planetmaker> they also had some artistic formation flights
12:03:42 <__ln__> sounds good
12:03:58 <planetmaker> and flight show for new airbus and boing models
12:04:50 *** Tom_Soft has joined #openttd
12:06:36 <__ln__> big passenger planes are one thing that are rarely demonstrated in finnish airshows, and not by their manufacturer anyway. not very surprising.
12:07:45 <planetmaker> flight show for the airbus looked kinda lame after the eurofighter show :P
12:09:35 <__ln__> for decades there used to be this one flightshow in finland that took place in the evening and night. the fighter portion usually began around 22:00 and ended at 00:00.

14:12:52 <Killer11> Hello everyone
14:13:12 <Killer11> I have received info on those upgraded 2M62's
14:14:09 *** DarkAceZ has quit IRC
14:14:20 <Killer11> 2M62K is just an engine swap for a Kolomna diesel that gives the same amount of power
14:15:43 <Killer11> 2M62M however is aparently a brand new loco inside, the only thign left of the original is the frame and the electric drive, everythign else is new and their CAT engines develop 1700KW each instead of 1450KW of the original, that adds up to 500KW of extra power
14:15:56 <Killer11> definitely warrants an extra loco in the set
14:18:13 <Xaroth|Work> Taede: got your PR, will probably implement it slightly different
14:19:22 <Taede> same end-result though?
14:20:02 <Xaroth|Work> probably
14:21:14 <Taede> :)

19:31:47 <andythenorth> so the game I'm playing is kind of fun
19:32:08 <andythenorth> I have some congested routes and crap to sort out, which is interesting
19:35:21 *** DarkAceZ has quit IRC
19:36:07 <andythenorth> trying to figure out how to make FIRS supplies work with cargodist
19:36:13 <andythenorth> anyone tried that?
19:36:44 <V453000> disable cargodist
19:37:46 <andythenorth> ok that's option 1
19:37:51 <andythenorth> any others? o-O

20:30:09 <Alberth> I haven't had enough courage to try firs at all, together with cdist :)
20:30:23 <andythenorth> Alberth: :P
20:30:38 <Alberth> With so many cargoes, it will become a nightmare very quickly, I think :)
20:30:58 <Alberth> even without supplies :p
20:31:00 <andythenorth> it's ok on a basic economy (I'm playing temperate basic)
20:31:06 <andythenorth> the supplies are just broken
20:31:20 <andythenorth> cdist has no way of knowing the 'demand' that FIRS has
20:31:40 <Alberth> yeah, subsidies are also broken by cdist
20:31:42 <andythenorth> it's a bit sad, because supplies finally got worked out, and now they're broken again :)
20:32:18 <andythenorth> it's almost as though we could use a way for industries to express demand :(
20:32:38 <andythenorth> for example, by posting demand onto tiles or such
20:33:44 <planetmaker> andythenorth, it's not broken. It just does work badly with cargodist
20:33:55 <andythenorth> planetmaker: same thing :D
20:34:09 <planetmaker> Maybe 'cargodist' should become a global flag which could be checked by NewGRFs
20:34:15 <planetmaker> or is it already?
20:34:18 <andythenorth> I guess the interesting question - is it solvable, or does FIRS need to be rethought again?
20:34:43 <frosch123> what's the problem?
20:34:56 <planetmaker> you can't exactly do cargo requirements with the same algorithm for both cargodist and without
20:34:56 <frosch123> nearby industries get too much supplies, far away ones none?
20:35:18 <andythenorth> not quite - I found the setting to adjust that and tested it
20:35:51 <andythenorth> cdist has no concept that a FIRS industry wants between n and m units of supplies delivered per month
20:35:58 <andythenorth> n = low amount, m = high amount
20:36:29 <andythenorth> and as a player, I have no way to circumvent cdist other than turn it off :)
20:36:43 <andythenorth> a sticking plaster would be a newgrf cargo flag for cdist to ignore a cargo
20:36:43 <frosch123> how should n and m affect routing?
20:38:00 <andythenorth> I'm not sure
20:38:08 <andythenorth> bit wary of specifying solutions for something I don't understand
20:38:15 <frosch123> well, what are you heading for?
20:38:18 <andythenorth> the problem is partly expressed by this screenshot
20:38:23 <frosch123> you did not state any problem
20:39:15 <andythenorth> https://dev.openttdcoop.org/attachments/download/5626/FIRS_cdist.png
20:39:22 *** Progman has joined #openttd
20:39:38 <andythenorth> stating the problem takes a while to get out of my head :P
20:39:48 <andythenorth> problems that are clear in my head are not so much to other people :P
20:40:14 <frosch123> so, cargo is not evenly distributed? or not evenly loaded?
20:40:22 <andythenorth> ok - ignore implementations. Problem from a gameplay perspective:
20:40:23 <frosch123> in any case, you have too few vehicles
20:40:59 <andythenorth> - I want to deliver correct amount of supplies to as many destination industries as possible
20:41:16 <andythenorth> - I can't figure out how to do it with cdist
20:41:50 <frosch123> build more vehicles maybe?
20:42:08 <andythenorth> seems counter-intuitive
20:42:11 <frosch123> maybe it is loading only the cargo for tanner road
20:42:19 <andythenorth> no
20:42:28 <frosch123> while tinklebury is waiting to be picked up
20:42:30 <andythenorth> that's one of the counter-intuitive issues
20:42:36 <andythenorth> tanner road barely gets any distribution
20:42:43 <andythenorth> the link is very low capacity
20:42:48 <andythenorth> one train, 3 wagons
20:42:52 <andythenorth> spends months getting loaded
20:43:07 <andythenorth> I could add more trains, but that's counter-intuitive
20:43:28 <andythenorth> it's only a 25 tile hop
20:43:42 <frosch123> so you want destinations independent of link capacities?
20:43:48 <andythenorth> possibly
20:44:07 <andythenorth> I don't want to jump to a solution, I'm not sure I have explained the problem correctly :)
20:44:22 <frosch123> well, you are exceeding my knowledge of cdist then :p
20:44:27 <andythenorth> an alternative is to remove supplies from FIRS
20:44:34 <frosch123> i though capacities would only affect which route the cargo would taker
20:44:35 <andythenorth> so that's 2 options
20:44:37 <frosch123> not which destination
20:45:38 <frosch123> removing supplies is no alternative :p
20:46:22 <frosch123> you can always enable cdist only for pax&mail
20:46:38 <frosch123> i actually wonder whether i should play a mail game for the first time in 20 years
20:46:48 <andythenorth> :P
20:47:07 <andythenorth> my observation so far is that cdist works for freight where the networks are simple
20:47:21 <andythenorth> i.e. for each linkgraph, there are multiple sources and one destination
20:47:23 <frosch123> that's like playing without cdist :pö
20:47:36 <andythenorth> I am thinking of it as 'automated transfers'
20:47:42 <andythenorth> it saves me setting orders
20:48:00 <andythenorth> so far I can't make any sense of it where the linkgraph has more destinations
20:48:06 <andythenorth> seems to work ok for PAX, kind of
20:48:09 <frosch123> make a manual cdist patch then :p
20:48:17 <frosch123> do not give load/unload orders
20:48:29 <frosch123> but set the distribution amounts manually at the station :)
20:48:43 <frosch123> 10% north, 90% west
20:49:07 <andythenorth> oh, like dispatcher orders?
20:49:16 <andythenorth> umm, that's actually interesting :P
20:49:30 <andythenorth> I have some distribution networks, e.g. delivering goods etc
20:49:43 <andythenorth> I have spent some time building and destroying capacity on them, but can't understand the results
20:50:28 <andythenorth> probably EAndythenorth
20:50:32 <andythenorth> usually is
20:55:32 <andythenorth> I guess there's some stuff that only pro players will really understand
20:56:34 <Alberth> and some other stuff that nobody understand :p
20:56:47 <frosch123> i am not aware of anyone living from playing ottd
20:56:49 *** skyem123 has quit IRC
20:57:31 <andythenorth> maybe the 'game' is working out the emergent behaviour of the system?
20:57:54 *** Pol has quit IRC
21:09:43 *** adf89 has joined #openttd
21:09:47 *** Alberth has left #openttd
21:10:41 <andythenorth> so is it a nasty kludge to put an 'ignored by cdist' flag on a cargo?
21:11:36 <fonsinchen> In cargodist demand does _not_ depend on capacities, only on connectedness
21:12:01 <fonsinchen> And yes, cargodist does not know about industries demanding between n and m amount of cargo
21:12:17 <fonsinchen> It will generally have its own ideas on how much cargo to send where.
21:12:34 *** adf88 has quit IRC
21:12:50 <fonsinchen> However, as stated before, the handler system is very modular. Someone could write a replacement for the demand handler.
21:13:23 <fonsinchen> Or an additional one to be used as alternative to symmetric or asymmetric
21:13:45 <fonsinchen> In that way a YACD-like thing could be written on top of cargodist, too.
21:14:22 <fonsinchen> andythenorth, you should switch to "planned" mode in the station GUI to see what's really going on.
21:14:34 <andythenorth> o_O
21:14:45 <andythenorth> oh my :)
21:14:53 <fonsinchen> There may be cargo stuck in other places further upstream
21:14:54 <andythenorth> so many new drop down menus
21:16:37 *** DarkAceZ has quit IRC
21:16:48 *** oskari89 has quit IRC
21:16:51 * andythenorth had better go read the wiki
21:19:51 <andythenorth> so I need bigger / faster trains
21:19:53 <andythenorth> basically
21:20:12 <andythenorth> so the solution to under-delivery is over-delivery
21:23:29 <fonsinchen> You should carefully check where the cargo gets stuck and increase capacity where it is needed
21:24:35 <andythenorth> hmm
21:25:35 <andythenorth> I should probably just test by putting a bigger train on
21:25:40 <andythenorth> it's a single hop, 20 tiles
21:25:47 <andythenorth> there's no 'stuck' that I can see
21:25:51 <fonsinchen> You probably know the link graph overlay for the smallmap and main viewport, do you?
21:26:07 <fonsinchen> The yellow and red lines are generally the ones you should be looking at.
21:26:30 <andythenorth> where is toggle for main viewport?
21:26:38 <fonsinchen> In the map menu
21:27:23 <fonsinchen> Also, you might just have enough capacity everywhere and cargodist is just not sending the "correct" amount of cargo to your industries
21:27:47 <fonsinchen> If the industries are constantly changing their acceptance status the distribution will be unstable and change often, too
21:27:54 <andythenorth> neat grf
21:28:01 <fonsinchen> You can't really rely on the numbers, then.
21:28:04 <andythenorth> neat overlay sorry :P
21:28:10 <andythenorth> ok, so the link is barely used
21:28:14 *** sla_ro|master has quit IRC
21:28:18 <andythenorth> so I should put more capacity on it?
21:28:21 <andythenorth> bigger train?
21:28:36 <fonsinchen> no, if it's barely used, you don't have to increase capacity, of course ...
21:28:44 <andythenorth> oh :(
21:29:10 * fonsinchen prays for brain ...
21:31:21 <andythenorth> ok I may have misunderstood cdist fundamentally :)
21:32:33 <andythenorth> I think there's a fundamental problem that I am trying to trick cdist
21:32:53 <frosch123> it pays back by tricking you?
21:33:06 <andythenorth> double-trick :P
21:33:34 <andythenorth> the point of cdist is that it decides where cargo goes, I just provide the transport routes?
21:37:48 <fonsinchen> Yes
21:38:08 <fonsinchen> What else would it do, after all ...
21:38:10 <andythenorth> ok I'm doing it wrong :)
21:38:31 <andythenorth> I have misunderstood cdist :)

22:19:30 <Killer11> Hello
22:19:50 <Killer11> is it possible to do locomotive running sounds trough NML ?
22:22:47 <planetmaker> yes, there's a sound callback
22:23:21 <planetmaker> http://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Builtin_functions
22:23:33 <planetmaker> http://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/NML:Vehicles#Sound_events
22:24:17 <planetmaker> sorry, sound_effect
22:26:49 <Killer11> How do I use it tho, I can't really figure out where to put what and how the whole syntax would look like
22:27:20 <Killer11> Like if I have a specific engine sound for a specific locomotive for which i want to use it
22:27:25 <Killer11> where do I begin
22:29:11 <Killer11> do i call these functions from the graphics section of the item definition? as stuff that is dealign more with usage logic than graphics seems to land in that place too
