03:51:35 <Eddi|zuHause> ANIKHTOS: "a->b" is similar to "c.d", except that a is a pointer to a class/struct, and c is a class/struct directly
03:52:14 <Eddi|zuHause> it saves you an extra step of dereferencing the pointer to access a member

08:42:30 <__ln__> TrueBrain: 20:49 < TrueBrain> __ln__: https://www.openttd.org/en/contact <- there you can find the acting (maile) translation manager <--- yes, the email address, yet my primary question was *who* is the translations manager.
09:01:35 *** WWacko1976-work has joined #openttd
09:09:38 <__ln__> shouldn't contact strangers on the internet
09:15:53 *** Suprcheese has joined #openttd
09:22:04 <LordAro> you don't strike me as a child in the 2000s
09:22:24 *** Suprcheese is now known as Supercheese
10:05:23 <Eddi|zuHause> __ln__: there is nowhere written that "translation manager" must be a single person. it could be a rotating title, or even multiple people simultaneously

12:04:48 * andythenorth wonders if Development sub-forum in tt-forums should be shut
12:05:01 <andythenorth> or turned into Patchpacks forum
12:23:21 *** sla_ro|master has joined #openttd
13:10:53 <andythenorth> I think it's kind of misleading and we have github
13:11:09 <andythenorth> but eh, dunno, I'm kind of done with forums anyway

15:18:15 <ANIKHTOS> how are you andy?? is it snowing in the north??
15:20:04 <ANIKHTOS> i am goign fowrd on my project learnign mroe c++ as i go along
15:20:27 <ANIKHTOS> its a bit nightmare to search and find inside the code for waht you are looking for to change
15:20:43 <ANIKHTOS> it wook me 1 day to find what i was looking for :-(
15:20:47 <__ln__> may i suggest also learn more typing?
15:21:04 <ANIKHTOS> the keyborad of laptop is dying
15:21:30 <ANIKHTOS> isory for that the laptop keyboard is going bad
15:21:40 <ANIKHTOS> i willl use an external keyb now
15:22:44 <andythenorth> probably you have a macbook 'pro'
15:22:52 <andythenorth> keys don't work at all
15:23:19 <ANIKHTOS> and there is amother fun i lean to type in microsoft natural keyboard
15:23:28 <ANIKHTOS> then at works i had to use normal keyboard
15:23:39 <ANIKHTOS> and all the time the fingers do not really knwo where to go
15:23:49 <ANIKHTOS> at work they try to use the natural
15:24:01 <ANIKHTOS> and at home to use the normal keyboard layout grrr
15:24:44 <ANIKHTOS> as for the laptop is too small i alwys need to look for the keys
15:27:14 <ANIKHTOS> i am looking to downolad mingw64bit to replace my msys2 compiler but all the time i find source files and no binaries or installetion files
15:27:52 <ANIKHTOS> i tried to complie it but i did nto get binaries or i do nto knwo where it put them i coudl nto find them
16:46:16 *** Thedarkb1 has joined #openttd
16:56:09 <FLHerne> Is there any situation where sprite_id should /not/ be SPRITE_ID_NEW_WHATEVER?
16:56:50 <FLHerne> Does changing it result in using the graphics from an existing vehicle?
16:57:13 <FLHerne> And if so, is there a table of values for it?

17:54:24 <ANIKHTOS> hello alberth how are you??
17:54:56 <Alberth> I get loads of mail from you :p
17:55:17 <ANIKHTOS> i think i have a bug
17:55:29 <ANIKHTOS> but i am still in the same page
17:55:34 <ANIKHTOS> so i click again and again
17:55:37 <Alberth> it's more effective if you ask such things in the chat
17:55:40 <ANIKHTOS> so how many times you got the same??
17:56:13 <Alberth> oh, only a few duplicates, they are mostly different each time :)
17:56:38 <ANIKHTOS> well the last days i have this problem
17:56:42 <ANIKHTOS> submit is not working
17:56:47 <ANIKHTOS> and i think i send duplicated
17:56:58 <Alberth> I think once that happened
17:57:31 <ANIKHTOS> yesterday it happned in the forum where i psot somethign 2 times
17:57:34 <ANIKHTOS> so i delete one entry
17:58:11 <ANIKHTOS> it does not happen every time but it seems to happen when i am composing the message too long
17:58:38 *** ChanServ sets mode: +v tokai
18:02:55 <ANIKHTOS> alberth my code is gettign crazier
18:03:03 <ANIKHTOS> i am now testing experiemtnal code v2
18:04:39 <Alberth> of course it becomes crazier, you're on the slippery slope of newgrf support
18:06:01 <Alberth> it's slippery since it is difficult to decide what is right; this is what broke the other patches too, I think
18:06:44 <ANIKHTOS> the more support i give the newgrf
18:06:48 <ANIKHTOS> the crazier the code becomes
18:07:35 <ANIKHTOS> now i have _cur_month to flip flop bewtenn normal month and slow month
18:08:36 <ANIKHTOS> it will give more support to newgrf that check if _cur_month has changes compared to ymd.month
18:09:22 <ANIKHTOS> but that gives me an idea of experimental code 3 _date also flip flop in values

18:10:55 <James_T_Kirk_SpyBot_To_Ensure_> No one talk smack about me when I'm offline. I'm monitoring the logs now.
18:11:44 <James_T_Kirk_SpyBot_To_Ensure_> Hmm... How do I listen to Server 1 chat?
18:12:00 <LordAro> reddit servers are at #/r/openttd
18:12:10 <James_T_Kirk_SpyBot_To_Ensure_> Thank you very much!
18:13:36 *** James_T_Kirk_SpyBot_To_Ensure_ is now known as Friendly_James_T_Kirk_Monitor
18:14:31 <LordAro> also the logs are public anyway
18:14:41 <LordAro> so i'm not sure what you're achieving
18:15:51 <Friendly_James_T_Kirk_Monitor> I didn't know about that website. Thank you. And you're right, I didn't know the logs were being archived.

19:31:05 <andythenorth> tunnels in stations? o-O
19:31:21 <andythenorth> stations in tunnels? o_O
19:33:08 <Alberth> the latter would be invisible any way :p
19:33:11 <andythenorth> child #1 wants it
19:33:19 <andythenorth> would be a good hack for metros
19:33:38 <andythenorth> station is in wormhole :P
19:34:01 <Alberth> looooooooong station :)
19:34:33 <Alberth> extend by attaching another tunnel :p
19:36:52 <andythenorth> station-tunnels :P
19:37:01 <andythenorth> what does 'go to middle' mean though in orders :
19:40:47 <Wolf01> I'm trashed this evening
19:41:10 <Wolf01> Because wasted is not enough
19:45:19 *** TheHawk has joined #openttd
19:56:52 <Wolf01> Ok, difficult things now: how do I attach the debugger to a dll call? I know I should test the DLL with a test project, but I don't know what the real app passes to me
19:59:08 <Wolf01> Ok, it seem that attaching it to the webserver worked
19:59:09 <peter1138> Hmm, my screen appears to have burn-in o_O
20:02:33 <LANJesus> what kind of screen?
20:05:57 <LANJesus> if LCD, try leaving the screen off for 48hrs straight. if that isn't fixing anything, try leaving the screen full white or run some shit like https://youtu.be/VN-KIlsxxOw for a while
20:34:17 <Eddi|zuHause> i've seen a CRT in a video recently, and thought "man how old is this video?"
20:34:45 <Eddi|zuHause> however i don't remember what the video was about
20:38:40 <Wolf01> Oooook, I made my extension library to work, and it's wonderful what I can do now
20:39:23 *** D-HUND is now known as debdog
20:51:00 <Friendly_James_T_Kirk_Monitor> Is S2, S4, and S5 coming back?
20:51:57 <LordAro> reddit servers continue to be at #/r/openttd
20:52:05 <LordAro> and your nick is obnoxiously long
20:52:09 <Friendly_James_T_Kirk_Monitor> sorry
20:52:35 *** Friendly_James_T_Kirk_Monitor is now known as James_T_Kirk_Monitor
20:57:35 <James_T_Kirk_Monitor> My apologies if this isn't the place to ask, but what are some good, active servers out there. Ones with decent, realistic newGFXs.
21:01:42 <andythenorth> nobody here knows I think :)
21:09:30 *** gelignite has joined #openttd
21:12:50 <glx> too many servers existing to know
21:23:05 <Alberth> pretty much nobody here plays online with realistic newgrfs, I think
21:24:08 <andythenorth> wtf you doing V?
21:24:41 <V453000> I'm not so sure about that :D
21:26:25 <V453000> we've got a bunch of big changes coming and I'm involved in some way in almost all of them :d
21:26:30 <V453000> but it's a lot of fun
21:28:12 *** sla_ro|master has joined #openttd
21:39:48 <Alberth> makes sense, everything that is done has to be shown to the user :)
22:16:10 <TrueBrain> __ln__: so please also never email to info@ and abuse@. I mean. Weird.
22:18:48 <LANJesus> Eddi|zuHause: i use CRTs at home still. it makes watching old 4:3 netflix shows feel more authentic
22:19:18 <LANJesus> unless they went full stupid and burned in pillars... grr
22:19:18 <ANIKHTOS> i liked the 4:3 aspect
22:21:05 <__ln__> TrueBrain: anyway, i did email Mr. Translations Manager today.

23:07:32 <FLHerne> LANJesus: It can be pretty good once your brain tunes out the 45° angles
