00:39:37 <Samu> pathfinder.cost.search_range = route_dist / 5;
00:40:02 *** WormnestAndroid has quit IRC
00:40:22 <Samu> it's not really a "cost", but...
00:40:41 *** WormnestAndroid has joined #openttd
00:44:24 <Samu> fastest profile is ultra mega hyper godly fast now
00:44:49 <Samu> fails a lot on maps with tons of water
00:49:17 <Samu> 31 is a little bit too much, i think
00:49:33 <Samu> but ok, will have to test

10:51:45 <Samu> running at default max ops/construction speed with the addition of convoy tricks, pathfinder takes more than 10 days each attempt, which is the days to wait before starting the next road vehicle on a previous route (the trick)

12:14:50 <andythenorth_> North American Horse :p
12:15:31 <andythenorth_> Progression problem
12:16:06 <andythenorth_> IRL american train speeds have declined substantially since 1940s
12:19:03 <peter1139> Yeah but elevenses.

12:32:42 <peter1139> Well, I had the second half a protein bar. Not really satisfactory.
12:32:51 <peter1139> Fancy bacon & eggs :/

13:58:37 *** WormnestAndroid has quit IRC
14:24:43 <Arveen> there are fancy bacon & egg protein bars ?
14:27:09 *** WormnestAndroid has joined #openttd
15:04:15 <Wolf01> So, it looks like 0% reliability engines, today a train stopped twice, the first time they changed the engine, it stopped again.
15:07:47 <peter1139> It stopped as it left the depot?
15:08:12 <Wolf01> After leaving the station
15:10:05 <Wolf01> The worst part of the story is that somebody thought it was fine to attack the train conductor

16:43:24 <superprower> Hi! Is there a way to make some modifications (i.e. placing objects, roads, cities) to the game maps externally, from scripts of some kind? Is there an API of some sorts?
16:53:27 <superprower> Thanks a lot! Haven't thought to look up 'scripting' for some reason, was looking at modding.
16:54:38 *** Wormnest has joined #openttd
16:59:58 <FLHerne> superprower: OpenTTD extension interfaces are:
17:00:52 <FLHerne> "NewGRFs" -- alter graphics, add new vehicle/building/industry/infrastructure/... types, town names, etc.
17:02:02 <FLHerne> NoAI -- for AI-controlled companies; build infrastructure, manage vehicles, etc.
17:03:26 <FLHerne> GameScript -- scripting interface similar to AI, but for controlling the overall game -- set goals, control town growth, or build infrastructure etc. as AIs do
17:04:18 *** supermop_work has joined #openttd
17:05:22 <FLHerne> And, of course, "patch the source code" is always the method of last resort :P
17:23:39 <peter1139> "Play the game" is the usual last resort...
17:33:50 <Wolf01> Meh, another game I would like is Epic exclusive
17:40:48 <Wolf01> Developers should sell the game directly and then let you chose the library you want, I already purchased games twice because I found a nice discount on steam and forgot that I had the game on another library
17:41:19 <supermop_work> i buy records twice all the time
17:41:39 <supermop_work> dont realize till i am putting it on my shelf and see it is already there
17:43:34 <Wolf01> I do that with books, but that's because I forget to update the list of the ones I already have
17:46:26 <Wolf01> I would like to have the same for games... but not an excel sheet
17:49:50 <supermop_work> i started a sheet for my records, but i also forget to update it
17:50:15 <Wolf01> At least with proprietary stores you can guess on which library it's a game, but with generic stores like steam, gog and epic...
17:54:15 *** HerzogDeXtEr has joined #openttd
18:01:14 *** Progman has joined #openttd
18:02:32 <Wolf01> So... I have this game on gog, steam and epic... and installed both on steam and gog
18:04:30 <Wolf01> At least I got it for free on epic
18:21:35 *** Eddi|zuHause has joined #openttd
18:22:57 *** frosch123 has joined #openttd
18:31:41 <Wolf01> Hmmm, even playnite can't import all the games
18:56:55 *** gelignite has joined #openttd
19:06:31 <peter1139> I came home. I ate an Oreo biscuit. That's my dinner carolies gone ;(
19:07:51 <Eddi|zuHause> damn these koroljevs
19:20:35 <frosch123> wasn't there at least the option for some better biscuit, other than an oreo?
19:40:12 <peter1139> Yes, but that was the last one in an already open packet. Also it was a "snowy" covered one. Must have been there a while.
20:54:59 <Wolf01> How... a lonely oreo... you monster!
21:17:57 *** WormnestAndroid has quit IRC
21:18:07 <Samu> the default ai is dummy ai
21:19:21 *** WormnestAndroid has joined #openttd
21:22:05 <LordAro> (this was literally the question i asked that got me into the OTTD community 10 years ago)
21:22:50 <LordAro> basically the whole point of "NoAI" is that all AIs are community provided
21:23:45 <Samu> make dummy ai download an ai and run it
21:24:53 <Wolf01> Hmmm, I wanted to play a game but I noticed too late that the windows' store version is stable and doesn't have nrt...
21:25:36 <Wolf01> Also, why does the content download let me download clearly incompatible grfs?
21:51:14 <peter1139> Well I'm hardly a monster, there is no lonely oreo any more...
21:51:58 <peter1139> Also, I had cheese & biscuits and now I'm going to bed. Hopefully sweet cheesey dreams :p
22:00:53 <Samu> I need to make AI management more flexible
