08:01:44 <truebrain> You should have done that BEFORE the nightly! 😛 😛
08:27:08 <peter1138> truebrain: Do a new one!
08:45:38 <peter1138> Maybe I should do a patch pack.
09:05:51 *** Flygon has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
09:27:46 *** reldred has joined #openttd
09:42:57 <truebrain> peter1138: Call it "vanilla" please
09:43:41 <peter1138> I mean, Vanilla Patch Pack was part of the joke. But I got sidetracked.
09:43:50 <peter1138> (This is also part of the joke)
09:44:09 <truebrain> missed opportunity 😛
09:46:04 <peter1138> Hmm, is there a stable download URL to download the nightly Linux Generic Binaries?
09:46:39 <truebrain> might be nice to add 🙂
09:50:18 *** XYZ has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
09:52:58 <peter1138> Hmm, I'd quite like to OpenGL blitting again.
09:53:32 <peter1138> Whoever it was who was working on the DirectX blitter went silent 😦
09:53:54 <peter1138> Quite like to TRY...
09:55:47 <reldred> that said opengl blitter could be fun
09:58:36 *** XYZ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)
10:19:41 *** XYZ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)
10:25:51 *** SigHunter has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
10:25:54 *** SigHunter has joined #openttd
10:37:00 <peter1138> reldred: badges is probably most likely to go ahead, I guess.
10:37:11 <peter1138> There's even a PR... wait there was a PR for colours too.
10:41:59 <peter1138> VS Code is autocompleting things, but completely incorrectly 😦
10:54:31 <peter1138> (I am only typing here, not pressing any control sequences...)
10:58:23 <truebrain> so what is your delivery date? 😄
10:58:32 <truebrain> haha, that is hilarious 😄
11:02:18 <peter1138> It's actually winding me up no end and I'm about to lose my mind.
11:02:52 <LordAro> some LSP gone haywire?
11:41:27 <peter1138> Huge tables of historical exchange rates am I rite?
12:01:22 <LordAro> what have i got to do with it?
12:01:50 <LordAro> generally i'd say they should be fixed
12:02:05 <LordAro> not lime we're updating the Ruble every other day...
12:24:14 <truebrain> the only "fix" is to create this list every night and auot-update it 😛
12:24:36 <truebrain> but before you know it, people want it to be realistic for the era they play in 😛
12:28:14 <peter1138> Remove all currency.
12:38:26 <LordAro> i'd be happy to fix it at a certain date
12:38:30 <LordAro> 1995 or 2004 or whatever
12:38:41 <LordAro> probably 1995 because Euro etc
12:41:02 <peter1138> I've just realised.
12:41:17 <peter1138> Did you mean "fixed" as in never changed, or "fixed" as in corrected?
12:54:09 <peter1138> Isn't there a NewGRF currency feature...
12:54:40 <truebrain> Owh, I also read it: he wants to constantly fix the value
12:54:42 <peter1138> Yup. It is very half-baked.
12:55:18 <peter1138> And probably doesn't work as a static NewGRF.
12:55:25 <truebrain> Silly LordAro, being ambigious in wording 😛
12:55:41 <peter1138> I wonder if TrueGRF supports making simple currency NewGRFs...
12:55:51 <truebrain> TrueGRF is most popular for townnames
12:55:58 <truebrain> so I can imagine it would work for currencies too 😛
13:11:30 <LordAro> hmm, GH UI has changed a bit
13:47:02 <peter1138> Any guesses as to what this is?
13:50:58 *** asasnat has joined #openttd
13:50:58 <asasnat> idk but the straight orthogonal lines remind me of coal mine subsidence patterns
14:56:06 <xarick> what to do when desired_slope is neither inclined nor flat? assert?
14:59:24 <xarick> if it is not in either state, then the terraform has already screwed up something
16:05:49 *** ChanServ sets mode: +v tokai
16:09:24 <peter1138> 10th July 3741 vs 26th July 3741. Well that's a difference.
16:56:14 <xarick> using AyStarNode = CYapfNodeKeyTrackDir; I'd like to use ExitDir 🙂
16:57:17 <xarick> probably gonna be a bad idea
17:34:21 <mnhebi> andythenorth: nmlctoon :p

19:37:08 <xarick> I waste 1 entire day trying to do one simple thing and I fail miserably
19:38:00 <xarick> I still don't get pathfinders
19:38:43 <xarick> I try to get the neighbours and the stupid thing is going back and forth with the same neighbours
20:16:16 <kuhnovic> That means they are not added to the closed list
20:17:58 <kuhnovic> Or they are added to the closed list but with different keys. That way the pathfinder can't detect that a node has already been processed, so it will happily add the same nodes over and over again.
20:33:56 <xarick> decided to copy paste FollowTrack from the deceased NPF
20:34:12 <xarick> adapted it a bit for the river case
20:34:50 <kuhnovic> FollowTrack is also used by YAPF btw
20:35:38 <kuhnovic> I've also used it for the water region initialization. That way you "play by the same rules" as the ship pathfinder does. I do wonder how that works for your river case though.
20:36:38 <xarick> the river slope has no track, had to do this:
20:36:38 <xarick> ``` if (trackdirbits == TRACKDIR_BIT_NONE && IsTileType(dst_tile, MP_WATER) && IsRiver(dst_tile)) {
20:36:38 <xarick> trackdirbits = TrackBitsToTrackdirBits(AxisToTrackBits(DiagDirToAxis(GetInclinedSlopeDirection(GetTileSlope(dst_tile)))));
20:37:24 <_glx_> all PF work in the same way, you add node to the open list, they are processed, removed and added to closed list
20:39:43 <kuhnovic> True, but there are different way to implement the open and closed lists. We use maps with keys to identify nodes, there are other ways too.
20:41:05 <xarick> no more false assert on TestRiverConnection
20:41:53 <xarick> dealing with coast tiles made me do this
20:49:16 <xarick> it was saying there was no connection on this
20:49:38 <xarick> because coasts were not considered
20:50:42 <xarick> but to consider coasts, I wasted the entire day, but finally managed to do it
20:50:55 <xarick> I had to use trackdirs
20:51:44 <xarick> I had to ensure where it comes from and where it goes to has the correct trackdir
20:52:48 <xarick> it exploded in complexity only due to coasts :8
20:55:24 <xarick> got an assert somewhere else, finally
20:56:55 <xarick> this time an assert telling me the desired_slope for a river tile is neither inclined nor flat
21:05:35 <xarick> `if (cur_slope == desired_slope) MakeRiverAndModifyDesertZoneAround(tile);`
21:08:44 <xarick> uh oh... it can actually happen
21:11:21 <mnhebi> shouldn't you just ignore desired slope if it matches cur slope?
21:12:42 <xarick> no, it is widening, so it wants to make a river there
21:14:07 <xarick> this case actually self-corrected desired_slope to SLOPE_FLAT then terraformed cur_slope to flat
21:16:16 <xarick> I think I'm moving the assert to somewhere else
21:16:49 <xarick> to places where it's about to place river tiles
21:29:32 <xarick> still fine, it raised the W corner on the left tile to flatten it and add a river
21:30:47 <xarick> i actually don't know what happened first, this circular tile search is difficult to follow
21:33:15 <xarick> peter1138: is this your doing?
21:58:34 <peter1138> Nope, I'm not attempting to read a string parameter as integer.
22:04:24 <mnhebi> who wouldn't want to read a string as a integer.
22:04:44 <mnhebi> its the reverse that is not funny
22:07:36 <xarick> it only happens in relwithdebinfo
22:07:43 <xarick> doesn't happen in debug
22:12:02 <_glx_> put a breakpoint on this debug message

22:46:53 <xarick> i'm unsure how to reproduce 😮
22:46:59 <xarick> seems to be on a timer
22:48:43 <_glx_> it's a GetString, or a DrawString

continue to next day ⏵
