11:28:32 <Eddi|zuHause> kern :info : [Thu Sep 18 08:29:04 2014] Watchdog[10048]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f02e864c038 sp 00007f02d7cb3710 error 6 in chromium[7f02e4778000+5c5d000] <-- why does it do that in the middle of the night?
11:30:33 <Xaroth|Work> middle of the night at 8:29 ?
11:30:43 <Xaroth|Work> you have a strange definition of middle of the night :P
11:33:19 <Eddi|zuHause> but that is not the debate :p
11:34:32 <Eddi|zuHause> but why is it doing things 4 hours after i last used it, and 4 hours before i next used it...
11:34:55 <Eddi|zuHause> and it also doesn't correlate with automatically scheduled stuff like 24h-disconnect
12:12:39 *** Pensacola has joined #openttd
12:46:30 <Darth> I don't know how to get vehices to show up in the game. I built the depot and roads for them but I can't find or buy vehices anywhere. Do I need to download them from somewhere or am I doing it wrong?

14:16:10 <Torquel> guys, do you know how to enable these lines connecting places from vehicles orders?
14:18:23 <peter1138> Torquel, I think it's map -> Cargo Flow Legend
14:19:35 <Torquel> hmm, i'll try that, thanks!

15:12:49 <peter1138> so is there a gamescript where the goal is to hook up every industry and/or town?
15:12:56 <peter1138> i mean, i could just do that anyway but...
15:15:19 <Torquel> never heard of such script
15:15:38 <Torquel> not that much of a challenge tbh :)
15:16:09 <Torquel> oh, btw, i figured out what draws vehicles route

15:53:10 <peter1138> alright, nfs for a build dir was not a good idea :P

15:55:53 <Alberth> if all machines use the same time source, it works :)
16:29:36 <peter1138> they're all NTP synched, but... :S
16:29:50 <peter1138> oh right, this is windows :S
16:34:30 <peter1138> alright, ntpd was not running. in fact, /etc/init.d/ntp does not work, but just running ntpd does. odd :S

19:57:40 <frosch123> hmm, funnily the "wtf is... train fever" manages to sound ottd better than train fever, despite of most of the listed issues also apply to ottd :p
19:59:58 <Rubidium> my semantic parser fails horribly on that sentence
20:00:15 <frosch123> possible, i'll try again :p
20:01:16 <frosch123> the "wtf is.. train fever" video manages to make ottd look better than train fever, even though most of the issues listed basically also apply to ottd
20:02:22 <frosch123> like ponting out that the ecnomics are broken, because vehicles make 100k when traveling for 3 months
20:03:04 <frosch123> and not having an tutorial :)
20:03:24 *** luaduck_zzz is now known as luaduck
20:09:29 <frosch123> it also mentions the lack of an undo function
20:19:19 <frosch123> i wonder though why no patch has yet wrapped the shared orders around, and made a list of orderlists, and allowing to name them like groups
20:20:31 <frosch123> i think that has also always been on the ottd<->simutrans comparison lists
20:21:51 <frosch123> it is popular enough
20:22:14 <frosch123> "wtf is.." is a trademark-ish :)

20:58:50 <Eddi|zuHause> frosch123: but he doesn't actually say "(o)ttd is better because it does have an undo button", but more like "there is way more ways to mess up here, and thus an undo button is more urgent"
21:00:27 <frosch123> nah, there is nothing untrue about what he says
21:00:51 <Eddi|zuHause> and the terraforming that he complains about is basically the same as in sim city 4
21:01:15 <Eddi|zuHause> which is apparently a "BAD FEATURE" of freeform-ish 3d worlds
21:02:15 <Eddi|zuHause> not that terraforming was terribly well managable in sim city 2k
21:02:37 <frosch123> Eddi|zuHause: it was also horrible in ttd and still is in ttdp
21:02:55 <frosch123> and in sc2k i always played on flat maps
21:03:08 <frosch123> hills didn't add anything useful
21:03:09 <Eddi|zuHause> but the improvement of TTD over SC2k was that you could actually single-step the terraforming
21:03:14 <frosch123> at least not that i discovered
21:03:40 <frosch123> ah, right, just remembered how horrible it actually was in sc2k
21:03:52 <frosch123> true, water power was op
21:04:13 <frosch123> water and wind power, the only ones you do not have to replace after 50 years
21:04:22 <frosch123> and thus almost infinitely better
21:04:39 <Eddi|zuHause> plus no pollution
21:07:27 *** andythenorth_ has joined #openttd
21:08:10 <Eddi|zuHause> speaking of "the north", is scotland independent yet?
21:09:38 <frosch123> Eddi|zuHause: maybe andy dress up in plaid and went voting under-cover
21:10:01 <frosch123> NGC3982: i prefer the original sc1
21:10:18 <Eddi|zuHause> NGC3982: i tried playing it a while ago, but the interface did not age well...
21:10:41 <Eddi|zuHause> i would love to play SC4, but it crashes way too often :/
21:11:23 <frosch123> sc2k is somehow weird. i never mastered it for years, until i learned that schools and university and hospital and police and everything are completely fine with being run at 5%
21:11:43 <frosch123> building all of them with the starting money then made it incredible easy
21:12:34 <frosch123> i alwayd tried with the sc1 mechanics, and failed. and when i learned the sc2k mechanincs they turned out easy
21:14:17 <Eddi|zuHause> i always lowered funding for everything except roads
21:14:34 <frosch123> well, noone knows why the option for roads even exists :p
21:14:39 <frosch123> once you lower that, you have lost
21:14:49 <frosch123> it's like the 4th cursor key in 2048
21:30:36 <peter1138> hmm, this cd ripped with loads of errors first time round. second time it was fine, but very low confidence of a accuraterip match... i wonder if it's compared itself with the previous attempt... :S
21:33:32 <peter1138> i'm reripping my cd collection because it got lost
21:33:48 <peter1138> and i'm trying to do it accurately because last time there were errors
21:34:01 <peter1138> i'm not going to buy this music again, in dodgy mp3 format...
21:54:31 <berndj-blackout> how do i find my road vehicle depots again? they always end up embedded in urban sprawl and i can't find them anymore
22:11:40 <Eddi|zuHause> then get the music in FLAC format :)
22:14:53 *** LadyHawk has joined #openttd
22:24:29 <peter1138> Eddi|zuHause, that's the aim, yes.
22:26:00 <peter1138> Hmm, only 386 CDs ripped
22:34:09 <gbeene> Got a question if anyone's around
22:35:53 <DorpsGek> planetmaker: anyone was last seen in #openttd 3 years, 36 weeks, 5 days, 6 hours, 8 minutes, and 21 seconds ago: <anyone> hi
22:36:01 <planetmaker> seems not anymore
22:36:32 <gbeene> i think i'm figuring it out myself thru forum hunting anyways
22:36:43 <gbeene> obviating the need for human interaction whatsoever!! back into my hole
22:44:19 <Eddi|zuHause> human interaction is totally overrated
22:46:20 <planetmaker> that's why we have AIs :P
22:53:38 <gbeene> actually im struggling with changing font size
22:53:43 <gbeene> where is this pelya menu
22:53:59 <gbeene> but my game keeps crashing after ie dit the cfg
22:54:51 <Eddi|zuHause> make sure the game is not running while you edit the cfg
22:57:04 *** gbeene_ has joined #openttd
22:57:13 <gbeene_> oh life is so much better
23:01:05 <gbeene_> why is my passenger train losing like 20 grand every time it unloads
23:05:34 <Eddi|zuHause> because of transfer...
23:06:29 <Eddi|zuHause> because of transfer...
23:12:00 <Eddi|zuHause> if cargo distribution is enabled, or you set "transfer" orders manually, the passengers will take several vehicles to get to their destination
23:13:57 <gbeene> this motel internet is garbage
