08:11:11 <andythenorth> do we know how GS gets text strings?
08:11:17 <andythenorth> I can't find anything by googling
08:12:42 <andythenorth> so they're .txt files?
08:12:42 *** mindlesstux has joined #openttd
08:12:49 <andythenorth> even though nml uses .lng
08:16:59 <andythenorth> nvm, extended my compile to deal with it 🙂

08:20:49 *** michalc5706 has quit IRC (Quit: User went offline on Discord a while ago)
08:23:38 <peter1138> Well nml and GS are not the same thing, you might have noticed.
08:24:26 *** SigHunter_ has joined #openttd
08:25:24 *** SigHunter has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)
08:25:28 <andythenorth> just wonder why GS changed the format
08:25:46 <andythenorth> nvm, they're not the same format I think
08:26:30 <andythenorth> not sure GRF can do that
08:29:36 <peter1138> Is it because they are different things?
08:29:44 <andythenorth> yes, seems to be
08:29:46 <peter1138> Like, one is a data format, and the other is a programming language?
08:30:58 <andythenorth> TL:DR .txt for GS lang files?
08:32:14 <andythenorth> ha my hint file is a bad idea
08:32:22 <andythenorth> GS thinks "_lang_files_here_are_generated" is a language
08:32:30 <andythenorth> then fails to find strings in it and crashes
08:33:23 * andythenorth delete that hint
08:33:54 <peter1138> Why are you generating languages?
08:34:28 <andythenorth> this one's a lie, it's just been cp-ed from another location
08:34:46 <andythenorth> the hint file is a bit of a hangover from something in grf lang
08:46:05 <peter1138> By "crashes" do you mean "fails to load because you provided it with invalid data"?
08:49:25 <andythenorth> everything in gs lang dir must be a .txt file, with all the strings present in all files?
08:50:01 <andythenorth> it ignores files that aren .txt
08:58:19 *** SigHunter_ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)
09:00:01 <ahyangyi> peter1138: To be honest I need to do that too

11:09:14 <Eddi|zuHause> well, presumably missing strings will be replaced by their english equivalent.
11:49:34 <peter1138> That is not Bahnschrift 🙂
11:53:19 <andythenorth> Eddi|zuHause: Might test that later, there were 3 or 4 different failures compounding and missing strings = failuremight be a false diagnosis
12:19:36 *** kstar892[m] has quit IRC (Quit: Client limit exceeded: 20000)
12:46:56 <ahyangyi> Can I use a sprite in the baseset but at a different scale?
12:47:10 <ahyangyi> For example, can I use the 1x sprite for my 4x object?
12:47:55 <ahyangyi> (and I probably asked in the wrong place)
12:50:10 <ahyangyi> Hmm, to avoid any XY problem, here's the original problem: I want the preview of my station show what it would look like when built at 4x4. Currently I precompose the sprites then scale down to 25%. I'm wondering if I can instead assemble that preview image dynamically.
13:07:00 <Eddi|zuHause> precomposing is the "correct" approach
13:10:53 <peter1138> Is it only buildable at 4x4 (or more)?
13:15:02 <ahyangyi> It is builtable at most sizes, but 4x4 is the minimal size to visualize how it works in general. Smaller ones are more or less "special cases"
13:17:07 <peter1138> Trying to cram 4x4 into the space of 1x1 is... asking a lot.
13:19:29 <ahyangyi> Yeah. The original problem is "I want a 4x4 preview". It couldn't happen, hence various workarounds.
13:19:34 <peter1138> The house builder does cram 2x2 into a slot but you don't see the whole building.
13:20:35 <ahyangyi> (and admittedly even my 1x1 tiles are sometimes too tall to be previewed, at least before the new UI, but that's another problem)

15:10:45 <peter1138> Quite a lot of people still on 14.0
15:12:52 <kuhnovic> They just really love desyncs
15:15:20 <Rubidium> or they got the new features they wanted and just wait for 15.0
15:15:45 <_jgr_> 86% of them are running locally, so desyncs agent am issue, if I'm reading it right
15:17:31 <Rubidium> and 13.3% is the server and a massive 0.7% the client... so unattended servers I'd reckon
15:25:01 <Eddi|zuHause> dunno, but 0.7% still sound like a lot of desync potential
15:26:12 <Eddi|zuHause> back when i downloaded 0.4.0, i learned about 0.4.0.1 coming out from the server list
