07:29:04 <andythenorth> on most of the rest, the leading digits are 05, or 04
07:29:19 <andythenorth> for some reason, on Christmas day they slept until 07.45

07:33:08 <andythenorth> today was a 05 day
07:33:14 <andythenorth> and I went to sleep after midnight :P

09:07:12 *** TheMask96 has joined #openttd
09:35:18 <andythenorth> so is 2014 a classic year for ottd?
09:50:52 <mgpl_> out of curiosity, you guys have any stats with info how many people play/download the game?
10:15:05 *** tokai|noir has joined #openttd
10:15:05 *** ChanServ sets mode: +v tokai|noir
10:17:41 <Eddi|zuHause> there are stats about how many people download from the official website, so we don't know how many people download it from other sources
10:18:02 <Eddi|zuHause> there are also stats about how many people play multiplayer on public servers
10:18:14 <Eddi|zuHause> but we don't know how many people play LAN or single player
10:50:53 <planetmaker> mgpl_, starting with eddi's uncertainty, we have between a few 10k up to several 100k players
10:51:30 *** Progman has joined #openttd
10:53:21 <andythenorth> my guess is about 25k
10:53:29 <andythenorth> but that’s just a gut feeling
10:53:30 *** Quatroking has joined #openttd
10:53:53 *** smoke_fumus has joined #openttd
10:53:54 <andythenorth> I could be as wrong as the next person
10:54:39 <planetmaker> yeah, I'd guess also at the lower end. Depends on how you count those who just occasionally download and play
10:54:46 <planetmaker> It's a thing very hard to guestimate
10:55:00 <__ln__> is there an imperial unit for 25k?
10:55:47 <__ln__> 14 cubic-dozens or something
10:56:53 <Eddi|zuHause> i think the highest i ever heard was a dozen dozen dozens
10:57:09 <Eddi|zuHause> whch is called a great-gros or so
10:58:53 <DorpsGek> __ln__: 14.4675925926
10:59:42 <Eddi|zuHause> so that would need another dozen
11:00:48 <Eddi|zuHause> @base 10 12 25000
11:01:18 <andythenorth> check for indian units
11:01:33 <andythenorth> they have various names for non-100 units
11:01:46 <andythenorth> or cockney rhyming slang
11:01:55 <andythenorth> maybe it’s a kilo-pony?

11:26:25 <Eddi|zuHause> jjavaholic: transport it over longer distances
11:34:33 *** Osceola has joined #openttd
11:35:58 <jjavaholic> in most cases that means negotiating towns and cities

11:56:35 <Alberth> do the last part with trucks
12:19:13 *** Flygon__ has joined #openttd
12:22:33 <Osceola> who know where i can download citybuilder server?
12:23:40 <V453000> I would search for a game script
12:24:41 <Osceola> but how need use this script?
12:24:44 *** gelignite has joined #openttd
12:25:00 <V453000> just apply it in the AI/Game Script menu
12:25:11 <planetmaker> main menu -> AI/Game script menu and then start a new map

18:44:32 <Eddi|zuHause> man, i really want to ignore entire threads in the forum...
18:47:07 <V453000> which ones for example Eddi|zuHause ? :D
18:51:39 <Eddi|zuHause> like... anything opened by SkiddLow. or the WAS thread, or...
18:52:29 <Eddi|zuHause> anything that i know before clicking on it will not have useful information in it. but i end up clicking on anyway
18:56:29 <Rubidium> ... just to get the notification of it not being read to go away, right? ;)
18:59:08 <Eddi|zuHause> some other forum had a button "mark this thread read" right next to "go to first unread post"
18:59:57 <andythenorth> what is this ‘marking read’ thing?
19:00:58 <Alberth> it's for loosing track what you have read and what not
19:01:31 <andythenorth> I’ve never done that on forums
19:01:43 <andythenorth> I’m kind of snow-blind to the feature tbh
19:01:58 <andythenorth> but then I hate these ‘mark read’ kind of attitudes
19:04:12 <andythenorth> ho ho, two years since I stopped checking email :)
