⏴ go to previous day
01:20:58 <Eddi|zuHause> huh, my computer just froze for a few minutes (OOM), and in that time i disconnected from all networks but this one
01:32:53 <dwfreed> OFTC has a much higher ping timeout setting than just about any other network
01:33:15 <dwfreed> freenode, for example, is about 240 seconds, or 4 minutes
01:33:26 <dwfreed> OFTC is 480 seconds, or 8 minutes

05:35:09 <IowaNerd> Hello everyone. Been a few years since I picked up openttd and I'm having a weird issue with my mouse cursor. When I pause the game the cursor (mostly) disappears when it's moving. It seems pretty much fine when not paused and the main menu works fine. I don't see any mouse-related settings in the game. Is there anything I can do to address my mouse cursor issue?

12:55:55 <andythenorth> snail_UES_: have you done container wagons yet? o_O
12:58:53 <Corns[m]> hey thoughts on sound effects while stretch-placing objects like roads, rails and canals?
12:59:04 <Corns[m]> eg. like in simcity or cities skylines
13:02:03 *** HerzogDeXtEr1 has joined #openttd
13:06:29 <snail_UES_> andythenorth: yes, containers will appear on bogie-mounted flatcars since 1970
13:06:44 <snail_UES_> they will replace crates for goods and similar cargoes (such as ECS glass)
13:45:09 <andythenorth> how many carolies in can of coke?
13:49:34 <peter1138> Not drinking Coke Zero?
13:52:52 <peter1138> Tastes better to me.
13:53:00 <peter1138> I can't stand full-sugar cola :p
13:53:38 * peter1138 eats a full-sugar plum.
14:03:39 <andythenorth> Horse has 261 wagons, probably time to stop
14:04:57 <peter1138> Ok, finished up a lemon bakewell tart as well. Such sugar.

17:46:49 * andythenorth went to the circus
17:55:21 <supermop_work> i don't remember the circus being that fun
18:08:08 <Eddi|zuHause> last time i went to the circus it was very hot and annoying and boring and a really bad experience
18:09:59 <supermop_work> ok andythenorth, consensus says you are wrong for liking the circus
18:10:38 <andythenorth> consensus is a strange game
18:12:46 <Eddi|zuHause> mind you, this was probably over 20 years ago
18:13:20 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause child #2 had the same experience today
18:13:28 <andythenorth> I was clearly at a different cirucse, I had a great time
18:14:04 <andythenorth> he put on his coat and tried to leave :P
18:14:17 <Eddi|zuHause> i must have been somewhat older, because i seem to remember i went with my little brother, without parents
18:15:28 <supermop_work> i must have gone arounf 91 or 92
18:15:41 <Eddi|zuHause> i think i need to go shopping today, but i don't want to...
18:15:55 <Eddi|zuHause> but i can't tomorrow, and waiting until friday is also bad...
18:16:09 <supermop_work> for food, or high fashion?
18:16:49 <andythenorth> can the food come to you?
18:17:10 <andythenorth> I quite like food shopping
18:17:34 <andythenorth> also there are an overwhelming number of newgrf things I *want* to do
18:17:44 <andythenorth> so I am doing none of them, due to choice paralysis ;P
18:17:58 <Eddi|zuHause> i know that problem
18:21:50 <andythenorth> it's easier when I feel obliged to do something :P
18:22:00 <andythenorth> but then I hate feeling obliged to do ottd stuff
18:22:07 <andythenorth> first world problems
18:22:11 * andythenorth plays OpenTTD instead
18:26:51 <andythenorth> are there any important PRs to test?
18:30:25 <andythenorth> stalebot injustice! :)
18:43:37 <andythenorth> I just built two docks at same station
18:51:57 <andythenorth> why doesn't Horse have a small electric freight loco in 1930?

21:07:13 <DorpsGek_II> [OpenTTD/OpenTTD] andythenorth commented on issue #7599: UI zoom appearance problems relative to 1.9.1 https://git.io/fj0Ws
21:07:25 <andythenorth> tried to word that so I don't sound like an asshole :)
21:18:23 <nielsm> let me be the asshole then :)
21:19:06 <nielsm> if you're scaling the UI to be sized like it would be on a 720x400 display (or something like that) at 1x, then expect newspapers to be sized like they would on the low resolution
21:19:25 <nielsm> that's the entire premise of UI scaling
21:25:30 <andythenorth> I guess I just turn them
21:26:47 <nielsm> the real solution is some 1.5x zoom...
21:27:02 <andythenorth> that would ease some UI problems
21:27:14 <andythenorth> but TBH, I need 2x for my eyes
21:27:18 <nielsm> and using vector fonts at somewhat larger size
21:27:51 <andythenorth> I have about 95% vision, but I find less than 2x really hard to see
21:28:07 <andythenorth> and the hit targets are too small
21:28:38 <andythenorth> 2x makes the UI boilerplate controls around 16px, which is about right
21:51:34 <Samu> how do I know what he error was?
21:55:04 <DorpsGek_II> [OpenTTD/OpenTTD] MingweiSamuel commented on issue #7561: Fix for power/running cost sorting algorithm. https://git.io/fj0lT
22:39:38 <andythenorth> anyone played Railroad Corporation yet?
22:42:56 <Arveen> nope, seems like there is a boom with these kind of games lately
22:43:58 <andythenorth> I spent a lot of time playing Railroad Tycoon
22:44:08 <andythenorth> but 'Railroad Tycoon, again' isn't very interesting
22:45:54 <glx> Samu: error may be in the console too, at least I think it's displayed in the debug console
22:47:19 <andythenorth> eh somebody fixed ctrl-drag to make groups?
