12:57:31 <^Spike^> yeah for all the disconnect and dead ams-ix :)
12:59:30 <^Spike^> just shows how vulnerable the internet is
13:00:18 <V453000> yeah, fuck the internet
13:01:35 *** nickshanks has joined #openttd
13:02:41 <planetmaker> ^Spike^, just plug-in that plug again, ok? :D
13:03:43 <planetmaker> weren't you told to not play the network equivalent of "tower of Jenga"?
13:06:45 <V453000> Gotta dump em all yknow.
13:12:33 <^Spike^> so that was what that button was
13:12:47 <^Spike^> to give you an idea what happend :)
13:13:10 <^Spike^> and no that chart isn't supposed to drop all the way to 0
13:16:25 <Eddi|zuHause> that site is sloooow
13:17:16 <^Spike^> prob becvause everybody is trying to get ams-ix charts :D
13:22:32 <Eddi|zuHause> yeah, now i see it as well
13:23:02 <Eddi|zuHause> doesn't look very healthy :p
13:25:06 <^Spike^> oh well the moments like these are the ones that ehm... suck :)
13:25:18 <^Spike^> can't do much and all you can do is wait as hosting provider :)
13:27:32 <Eddi|zuHause> reroute over another ix ;)
13:27:48 <^Spike^> ehm that was the whole issue :)
13:27:54 <^Spike^> alot of routers did that :D
13:30:32 <Eddi|zuHause> i'm sure the actual issue was the spying equipment was overloaded, so they had to throttle the line
13:31:25 <^Spike^> conspiracy theory: ams-ix also wanted to startup in the us, NSA demanded access to all their info everywhere to even start! :)

13:40:06 *** Johnnei has joined #openttd

20:00:52 <Alberth> ah, you found the post I used as inspiration. Couldn't find it while we were discussing it
20:01:03 *** FLHerne_ has joined #openttd
20:01:44 <Alberth> the new thing I added was that the industry is costing you a lot of money :)
20:11:00 * andythenorth wonders about capture the flag with industries
20:11:27 <andythenorth> and the price increases for successful industries
20:12:38 *** Progman has joined #openttd
20:26:54 * andythenorth was going to share that :P
20:27:31 <Wolf01> did you see the lego millenium falcon cross section minifig scale?
20:37:17 <Wolf01> that's really interesting, he could make a masterpiece, in either bad or good sense
20:41:45 *** joho^_^ is now known as joho
20:47:49 <V453000> andythenorth: that list is ridiculously similar to what OpenTTD is :D
20:48:27 <andythenorth> no CYOA style story choices
20:48:48 <Wolf01> we could make a game script for that
20:52:18 <andythenorth> ‘press 1 to win'
20:52:21 <andythenorth> ‘press 2 to lose'
20:52:56 <Eddi|zuHause> what does "CYOA" mean?
20:53:16 <andythenorth> choose your own adventure
20:53:36 <Eddi|zuHause> i don't think i've ever played such a game
20:53:55 <andythenorth> probably things like monkey island and such
20:54:31 <Eddi|zuHause> monkey island is a puzzle game
20:54:38 <Eddi|zuHause> there aren't any choices
20:54:51 <andythenorth> in that case, I don’t know :)
20:54:53 <Eddi|zuHause> you either solve the puzzle and go on, or you get stuck
20:55:01 <andythenorth> I read some of the CYOA books, they were underwhelming
20:55:25 <Eddi|zuHause> earlier adventure games also had the concept of death
20:56:28 <Wolf01> I was more interested to an extension of the "do you want to test the new vehicle for a year?" concept, to "do you want to use this vehicle? think wise because this is the only way you could get it or forget about it"
20:57:26 <andythenorth> nice, but eh, newgrf
20:57:46 <Wolf01> couldn't they be hidden via game script?
20:57:46 <andythenorth> ‘this engine is only usable if you have these coaches (and sacrifice a chicken)’
20:57:50 <Eddi|zuHause> Wolf01: that sounds even more silly than the current feature...
20:57:54 <andythenorth> newgrf breaks it
20:58:22 <Wolf01> meh, yeah, I understand the point
20:58:43 <Eddi|zuHause> Wolf01: the game would support disabling vehicles for individual companies, but gamescripts do not have access to this information, afaik
20:59:21 <Eddi|zuHause> Wolf01: the game has a bitmask which companies have access to a vehicle, but only sets "one" or "all" bits
20:59:42 <Eddi|zuHause> ("one" being the preview)
21:00:35 <Eddi|zuHause> Wolf01: other problem is, the gamescript will have no clue which NewGRF is loaded
21:08:32 <V453000> Keeping the color count low, as mentioned before, isn’t just for the sport of it. A harmonious palette creates a cohesive piece(art by Thu on Pixeljoint). This principle, along with many others, applies to all visual art, pixel or otherwise.
21:08:54 <V453000> very nice article andythenorth , thanks for sharing
21:09:30 <Eddi|zuHause> what?? games must be high-contrasty blinking piles of madness! otherwise it won't get the user's attention!
