IRC logs for #openttd on OFTC at 2015-08-23
⏴ go to previous day
00:01:52 <hehe> If I put non 3*3 roads in a 3*3grid city does that mess up anything
00:02:21 <Eddi|zuHause> no, they are just ignored
00:02:57 <Eddi|zuHause> and the town will try to build parallel roads
00:04:07 <hehe> so it does mess up things
00:04:29 <Eddi|zuHause> depends on what you call a "mess"
00:05:10 <Eddi|zuHause> you can easily use this method to do "avenue" style double roads
00:05:16 <hehe> roads side by side according to your description
00:06:36 <ST2> if you have settings to towns build roads, yes
00:06:38 <ST2> if towns not allowed to build them, your layout is what matters :)
00:12:02 *** zeknurn has joined #openttd
00:28:43 <Eddi|zuHause> hehe: anyway, if you want to build manual roads, and the town follow them, use "better roads" layout
00:30:50 <hehe> but i tried 3*3 grid to have a nice and easy bus station distribution
00:31:10 <Eddi|zuHause> sure, grids have some advantages
00:31:22 <hehe> in a megacity composed of 5 cities, except their grids aren't aligned
00:32:39 <Eddi|zuHause> grids should align
00:32:51 <Eddi|zuHause> unless you do weird stuff
00:33:00 <Eddi|zuHause> or your game is really really old
00:33:27 <hehe> well i put in the cities in a scenario
00:33:44 <Eddi|zuHause> that might be a problem, yes
00:33:55 <Eddi|zuHause> the automatic town placement is done in a way that grid-cities are placed on the grid
00:34:01 <hehe> i supposed the grids are centered around the point i put them at, and i didn't pay attention to that at the time

01:18:26 <hehe> is it normal for farms to produce little (less than other industries)

12:14:04 <Alberth> more likely, lazy sundays, or last week of the holidays, or so :)
12:22:56 <drac_boy> well had a bit of big birthday party yesterday evening for someone else anyhow
12:23:53 *** roidal__ has joined #openttd
12:26:05 * drac_boy also still has been doing very slow progress on grf graphics some mornings for a long time
12:35:49 <drac_boy> about holidays .. I guess it may be over for some people soon what with september being quite close now :-s
12:39:37 <Alberth> yep, very soon, as in a week ago :)
12:46:00 <drac_boy> just asking if you don't mind but do you draw graphics at all alberth?
12:48:33 <Alberth> nope, I wish I could, but that will need a lot of time
12:49:08 <drac_boy> ah ok np. was going ask about others' app but probably not you :->
12:50:02 <Alberth> I tend to use kolourpaint, a very basic paint program :)
12:50:21 <Alberth> but mostly for detailed inspection and pixel counting
13:01:52 <drac_boy> well have fun being keyboard asleep...or not :p I'm going to make some breakfast now :)
13:31:29 *** Supercheese has joined #openttd
13:35:58 <Ether_Man> For a dedicated server, I assume distribution_pax, distribution_mail, distribution_armoured and distribution_default are the cargodist stuff? But which value is which? 0 for manual I assume?

22:02:20 <drac_boy> any of you recall if there was ever any website space given with signing up for the forum?
22:03:46 <Wolf01> I think it is only for devs
22:05:15 <drac_boy> ah ok..guess must have changed over time then
22:07:17 <drac_boy> at least I know a good free webhost so I'll give that to friend
22:07:32 <drac_boy> (him and his separate small grf plan)
22:08:36 <frosch123> there is users.tt-forums.net
22:10:28 <drac_boy> oh..couldn't find that before..guess must had been the vague topic .. ty :-s
22:10:34 <frosch123> if the grf has a free licence and you are willing to learn how to use a version control system, you can also use the openttdcoop devzone
22:10:56 <frosch123> which will also offer you translators and a compile farm
22:22:21 <Wolf01> too bad i decided to shut down my website after 11 years of service, I could have used that space, but i only reported the updates of ottd on mine
22:22:57 <frosch123> so you replaced it with a twitter account? :p
22:23:31 <Wolf01> no, i just gave up on some things
22:29:33 <Eddi|zuHause> now you only need to learn how to follow through on some things :p
22:29:46 <Eddi|zuHause> (wait, that's me.)
22:30:17 <Supercheese> The follow-through's all in the wrist ;)
22:34:20 <Eddi|zuHause> i think my wrists hurt
22:35:20 <Eddi|zuHause> i never know what people mean by "heh"
22:39:29 <drac_boy> anyway going for now, ty forsch
22:39:54 <Eddi|zuHause> also, nobody who uses the word will ever reply to me asking...
23:01:13 <Supercheese> I view it as an alternative to "lol"
23:01:18 <Supercheese> since "lol" is no longer in vogue
23:03:23 <Eddi|zuHause> but that would be "hehe"
23:08:44 <peter1138> sort of amusing but nothing like an actual laugh
23:09:04 <Supercheese> It's the typed equivalent of a small smirk
23:09:17 <peter1138> with a "heh" sound thrown in
23:09:18 <Supercheese> not quite enough to warrant a laugh, but amusing enough to spark a reaction
23:09:37 <Supercheese> and yes it is onomatopoetic
23:10:11 <Supercheese> or onomatopoeic, or whatever
23:10:46 <peter1138> of course, germans only have two states of humour. none and full-on belly laugh.
23:16:39 <Supercheese> Ugh, my network is so spaghetti it's a miracle my poor train drivers can manage
23:22:35 *** Hiddenfunstuff has quit IRC
23:23:50 <Eddi|zuHause> germans love clear distinctions.
