10:02:58 <Eddi|zuHause> Wolf01: it's downloading now
10:16:22 <Eddi|zuHause> 15 minutes for almost 5GB
10:23:07 <Eddi|zuHause> Wolf01: a few years ago that would have taken me 2 days
10:23:36 <Wolf01> It will take me ages for ages
10:24:23 <Eddi|zuHause> that was a time where it was faster if i drove to university, finished the download there, and drove back, i was faster
10:29:41 <Wolf01> I am tempted to use phone data, but I only have 1GB, 600MB now
10:30:18 *** ConductCat has joined #openttd
10:42:35 <Eddi|zuHause> that won't suffice, i'm afraid
10:57:55 <crem> I tried to play some downloaded scenarios this weekend and could not start (almost) any. All of them had lots of dependencies, few of them could not be found anywhere. Am I missing something?
10:58:32 <Wolf01> No, but scenario creators do
11:00:58 <Eddi|zuHause> if they're also not found in there, it gets significantly more problematic to find
11:00:59 <crem> Thanks, will take a look. Usually a was able to find some of grfs manually, but there were still 1-2 that were missing.
11:05:25 <V453000> if it's not in the coop pack, or bananas, it becomes hell
11:07:37 <Wolf01> About hell, tell your friends to make mods download automatically the dependencies in F, love, me :*
11:09:16 <V453000> I am saying that almost every day

13:08:09 *** Progman has joined #openttd
13:19:20 <Eddi|zuHause> ... somehow it didn't register my achievement
13:20:51 *** TheMask96 has joined #openttd
13:47:53 <Wolf01> Eddi|zuHause, how is compared to train fever?
13:48:26 <Eddi|zuHause> Wolf01: haven't digged deep enough to compare. the campaign seems to be an interesting twist
13:48:58 <Wolf01> Any bug so far? (except the achievement one)
13:54:36 <Eddi|zuHause> well, other people seem to get achievements
13:54:41 <Eddi|zuHause> maybe it's just me, or a linux issue
13:55:01 <Eddi|zuHause> some texts are not properly translated to german for some reason
13:55:08 <Eddi|zuHause> but other than that, not really
13:55:37 <Wolf01> How is the feel to be able to build double track bridges?
13:56:53 <Wolf01> Also, is now possible to upgrade roads under bridges without demolish the bridge first?
13:57:13 <Wolf01> (and not being able to rebuild it later)
14:05:02 <Wolf01> They should have reordered the dropdown in the languages tab, default is russian if your language is not there
14:13:17 <Wolf01> Lol... people faces XD
14:15:29 <Eddi|zuHause> i did not have this problem
14:16:21 <Wolf01> Maybe because there's german
14:18:58 <Eddi|zuHause> yes, game defaults to german for me
14:24:08 <goodger> how can it not be translated properly to german? the developers' native language is german
14:47:29 <peter1138> Because even Germans know that German is a silly language.
14:53:30 <Eddi|zuHause> well, i'm not too sure if swiss german counts :p
14:59:30 <ConductCat> German is the living incarnation of Latin.
15:02:16 *** sim-al2 has joined #openttd
15:19:19 <goodger> the romance language family is actually the living incarnation of latin
15:19:24 <goodger> german is the living incarnation of german
15:22:03 <Wolf01> Do you know what I miss, Eddi? The automatic rotation of stations when you are attaching them to an existing road
15:23:35 <Wolf01> The autorefit instead is really nice
15:36:04 <Wolf01> Lol... vehicles stuck in depot
15:48:15 <Eddi|zuHause> Wolf01: what really annoyed me immediately was that arrow-keys sometimes stop moving the map, and move some window cursors instead
15:48:52 <Eddi|zuHause> no, when specific windows open
15:49:31 <Wolf01> Oh, it happen with construction tools
15:51:03 <Wolf01> Road depot tool changes between road and tram depot selection with scrolling keys
15:51:26 <goodger> maybe tell the developers
15:51:27 <Eddi|zuHause> probably not a bug
15:51:33 <Eddi|zuHause> but certainly a misfeature
15:52:16 <Wolf01> It doesn't even happen every time
15:54:22 <Wolf01> What bothers me since train fever is that you can reverse vehicles/trains but not change the current order
15:55:57 <goodger> have they sorted out the time compression problem?
15:56:12 <Wolf01> No, but there are mods for that
15:59:40 <Eddi|zuHause> what time compression problem?
16:00:01 <Eddi|zuHause> is that like daylength or what?
16:00:06 <Wolf01> Train takes 1 month to do 15km
16:00:24 <Wolf01> Yes, same as daylength
16:00:51 <Wolf01> We should provide a way to change it with newgrfs too
16:01:59 <Eddi|zuHause> how is that a problem?
16:02:41 <Eddi|zuHause> if you're doing "real time", then you won't ever get new vehicles
16:03:32 <Wolf01> Or invent new vehicles *every day*
16:04:32 <supermop> Eddi|zuHause: no new vehicles saves me the work of re-timetabling

18:43:23 *** frosch123 has joined #openttd
19:13:46 *** andythenorth has joined #openttd
19:32:35 * andythenorth refactoring Iron Horse
19:32:48 * andythenorth has spent an hour on it
19:45:44 <Alberth> always busy to be lazy :)
19:45:48 <DorpsGek> Commit by translators :: r27678 trunk/src/lang/romanian.txt (2016-11-08 19:45:38 +0100 )
19:45:51 <DorpsGek> romanian: 20 changes by kneekoo
19:46:59 <andythenorth> somewhere I got the idea that subclassing was not to be encouraged
19:47:07 <andythenorth> so I took an arcane route around it
19:47:09 <andythenorth> silly andythenorth
19:54:57 <Alberth> making a mistake is the best way to learn why it's a mistake :)
19:56:19 <Alberth> unfortunately, you only find out afterwards :(
19:56:22 <Wolf01> Subclassing has some nasty problems
19:57:46 <Wolf01> For example you have a truck and a train which are vehicles, if you want to make a road-train/tram/wtf you need to subclass again "vehicle" because you can't inherit from truck and from train
20:24:52 *** smoke_fumus has joined #openttd
20:29:28 *** andythenorth has joined #openttd
20:29:49 <andythenorth> Wolf01: that’s ok, just subclass tram :)
20:29:58 <andythenorth> easier to delete
20:32:48 *** FLHerne has joined #openttd
20:50:31 <Eddi|zuHause> Wolf01: no, but that was stupid anyways... you just need to make sure catchment areas overlap, and they will transfer
20:50:35 <argoneus> good evening train friends
21:09:28 <Eddi|zuHause> who else is fed up with an election in some weird country halfway around the world?
21:09:47 <Wolf01> I have more important things to do
21:10:42 <Wolf01> Like making 5 trains/yr full of passengers travel on the bridge over the Tay
21:13:45 *** sla_ro|master2 has quit IRC
21:19:55 <Alberth> Eddi: yep, I already wondered when the elections are, so they stop writing useless articles about the soap.
21:20:22 <Alberth> euhm, just let them drive around in circles? :p

22:48:03 *** FLHerne_ has joined #openttd
23:24:16 <goodger> Eddi|zuHause: they do have quite a lot of money and weaponry, so the potential election of a sexual-assaulting murder-clown as their head of state is worth paying attention to
23:24:59 <Eddi|zuHause> uhm sure, we're screwed either way... but it's become a tad much...
23:26:02 <goodger> I submit that rodham clinton is barely worse than merkel, while trump is a potential hitler
23:31:50 <FLHerne_> Yeah, Clinton is the standard personality-by-committee politician
23:31:54 *** FLHerne_ is now known as FLHerne
23:36:20 *** andythenorth has left #openttd
