06:24:58 <andythenorth> what if vehicles could have vehicles in?
06:25:10 <andythenorth> then a vehicle could have an articulated vehicle in it
06:25:40 <andythenorth> and that articulated vehicle could have multiple cargos

07:35:23 <andythenorth> ok so #14357 provides a clean way to do multi-system vehicles
07:35:46 <andythenorth> it also provides vehicles an alternative way to do railtype label fallbacks, rather than the nml table
07:35:49 <DorpsGek> [OpenTTD/OpenTTD] WenSimEHRP opened issue #14361: [Bug]: Badge filter conditions are not cleared after disabling filter https://github.com/OpenTTD/OpenTTD/issues/14361
07:35:53 <andythenorth> wonder which is preferable?
07:37:48 <wensimehrp> WenSimEHRPviaGitHub: hmm I propose a badge filter with priority though
07:38:32 <wensimehrp> e.g. filter the country, then filter the company, then filter the propulsion, at each step of filtering it gets rid of irrelevant options
07:38:53 <wensimehrp> so if you pick japan first then you filter for companies you won't see MTR and Amtrak
07:40:56 <wensimehrp> maybe even something like "Propulsion is diesel OR electric", union conditions
07:42:38 <wensimehrp> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1008473233844097104/1383350911560187924/image.png?ex=684e796e&is=684d27ee&hm=1adaf532ae8730b4221c867e4c31fe665e203884b5bd53f16d10e3fa8258eb46&
07:42:39 <wensimehrp> the badge filter right now is already showing some irrelevant information.
07:42:39 <wensimehrp> There aren't any South African trains in the temperate scenario

09:13:57 <michi_cc> andythenorth: Kinda, but not the same. You can of course modify the new prop with Action 6, but it is still a fixed length list, so if both railtypes are available, the vehicle will be for both. So it is an AND while the railtype table fallback is an EITHER OR.
09:14:48 <andythenorth> I think that might be easier to reason about
09:17:37 <michi_cc> AND in the normal word sense, not the strict boolean logic sense.
09:18:47 *** Flygon has joined #openttd
09:20:08 <michi_cc> If you want to make a 3rd rail vehicle that will be available for ELRL in case no track set is loaded, the multi-tracktype prop will not really help you.
09:20:08 <michi_cc> Action 6 dicking around is if course possible, but the already available and test railtype table fallback will do it for you.
09:20:24 <michi_cc> OTOH, the new prop *is* usefull for a 3rd + catenary engine.
09:26:33 <andythenorth> ok so there's a niche equivalence case the new prop meets (use *any* of XYZ if available)
09:26:50 <andythenorth> but generally, if it's about fallbacks, use the established fallback
09:28:51 <michi_cc> Yes, the main use is providing multi-electrification or multi-gauge vehicles without needing to have a matching railtype for every combination, not replacing railtype fallbacks for set compatibility.

09:34:30 <andythenorth> and the labels in the prop 34 list will fallback along the RTT lines?
09:36:06 <michi_cc> Prop 34 lists indexes into the RTT, just like prop 05 does
09:36:51 <michi_cc> So just like for prop 05, a railtypes that are not defined are skipped, and if nothing remains, the vehicle will be unavailable.

11:03:41 <andythenorth> I am on my phone, but does the script API depend on train prop 05?
11:04:50 <michi_cc> A bit. There is a function to get the railtype of an engine type. In the PR the existing function will return the numerically first railtype and a new function will return all railtypes.
11:05:14 <michi_cc> If a script chooses by powered/compatible, it hsould just work.
11:07:01 <andythenorth> Canโ€™t think of much else the PR needs except testing ๐Ÿ™‚
11:29:33 <peter1138[d]> wensimehrp: Yeah. That gets complicated fast so I went with Minimum Viable Product to start with.
11:29:58 <peter1138[d]> Vehicles carrying vehicles was something I mentioned before.
11:31:32 <peter1138[d]> Then you add VehicleType::Container, which can't move by itself, but can carry cargo and have a chain of vehicles.
11:32:03 <peter1138[d]> This gives you containerisation, and the vehicle ferries, and... moon on a stick...
11:32:11 <peter1138[d]> And it is most likely infeasible ๐Ÿ˜„
11:32:17 <peter1138[d]> Would definitely upset cargo-dist.
11:34:39 <peter1138[d]> Pretty sure it doesn't really add anything to gameplay.
11:34:54 <peter1138[d]> But, heh, visible working container yards, am i rite?
11:39:04 <andythenorth> "state machines"
11:51:59 <peter1138[d]> Eddi :/
11:58:31 <michi_cc> Yeah, Eddi seems to have vanished. Not seen on his Twitch channel for ~4 years either ๐Ÿ˜ฆ
12:04:54 <peter1138[d]> Hmm, nice, simplified my font cache work. Next up, make it compile on Windows and Mac OS.

12:55:59 <_glx_> peter1138[d]: good luck
12:56:10 <peter1138[d]> I know ๐Ÿ™‚
13:02:15 <peter1138[d]> Linking with mingw is... somewhat slow.
13:05:52 <LordAro> and that's with the fast linker
13:05:59 <LordAro> (presumably)
13:06:12 <michi_cc> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1008473233844097104/1383432336477130762/image.png?ex=684ec543&is=684d73c3&hm=bed84d9943f135d4e7601f011dd609f34712ca944f4f5b754edb2f33d4fbf233&
13:06:12 <michi_cc> Word thinks this is the same font size:
13:06:15 <peter1138[d]> I don't think there is one.
13:06:25 <michi_cc> So I guess it really is an excercise in futility.
13:06:40 <LordAro> peter1138[d]: lld vs bfd is quite significant
13:06:55 *** dres_1025 has joined #openttd
13:06:55 <dres_1025> So, tram tracks can run over the top of roads and ground tiles. How difficult would it be to edit OpenTTD's code to allow said tram tracks to run over other objects, namely rails, trees and buildings? Following that, could a NewGRF Tramtype specify what the track is allowed to run over?
13:08:14 <_glx_> LordAro: that's why CI uses lld
13:08:22 <michi_cc> Very. Tram tracks don't run "over" anything, they are just a road map tile. And there can only be one tile โ„ข๏ธ at the same spot.
13:09:22 <LordAro> _glx_: and it's *still* "somewhat slow"
13:10:09 <peter1138[d]> So lld-link-19?
13:10:20 <peter1138[d]> > lld is a generic driver.
13:10:20 <peter1138[d]> > Invoke ld.lld (Unix), ld64.lld (macOS), lld-link (Windows), wasm-ld (WebAssembly) instead
13:10:48 <_glx_> CI uses `mingw-w64-${{ inputs.arch }}-lld` package
13:11:08 <_glx_> and `-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-fuse-ld=lld"`
13:11:25 <_glx_> it also use ninja (faster than make)
13:11:58 <peter1138[d]> There's no `mingw-w64-.*-lld` package in my Debian.
13:12:14 <_glx_> I would guess that indeed
13:13:46 <peter1138[d]> Okay, well anyway, Arial still works... Hmm.
13:13:58 <peter1138[d]> Loading OpenTTD Sans still doesn't work, but that didn't work anyway.
13:14:21 <peter1138[d]> (I think `TryLoadFontFromFile()` uses an API that isn't meant to be used, or something)
13:14:40 <peter1138[d]> `static PFNGETFONTRESOURCEINFO GetFontResourceInfo = _gdi32.GetFunction("GetFontResourceInfoW");`
13:14:43 <peter1138[d]> Is a clue ๐Ÿ™‚
13:15:05 <michi_cc> > Try a nice little undocumented function first for getting the internal font name.
13:15:27 <_glx_> and the link is dead
13:15:30 <peter1138[d]> ๐Ÿ™‚
13:16:38 <peter1138[d]> DirectWrite is apparently the correct way.
13:17:17 <peter1138[d]> Hmm, `proton-caller` exists,
13:17:21 <peter1138[d]> Let's try that ๐Ÿ™‚
13:17:33 <michi_cc> https://web.archive.org/web/20210514201218/http://www.undocprint.org/winspool/getfontresourceinfo
13:19:03 <peter1138[d]> Eh, does not work ๐Ÿ˜ฆ
13:19:09 <michi_cc> DirectWrite is nice, as long as all you want is to get a fully rendered bitmap with your full text. If you want glyphs or layout info only, its almost useless.
13:20:22 <peter1138[d]> I figured as much.
13:21:16 <michi_cc> To not use the undoc function, either you need to parse the TTF yourself or the `Use the file name as the font face name, hoping it matches.` part applies.
13:21:18 <peter1138[d]> Although a rethink about how text is rendered may be nice, to allow things like sub-pixel positioning.
13:22:09 <peter1138[d]> We have a filename, with .ttf. But no path, IIRC.
13:22:17 <peter1138[d]> Oh, it does have a path.
13:22:29 <peter1138[d]> Hmm, maybe the path is just wrong here.
13:22:33 <michi_cc> For DirectWrite specifically, I wouldn't know a way to inject the sprite font or special sprite glyphs from the top of my head.
13:22:56 <peter1138[d]> My other thought was actually to go back to freetype and fontconfig on all platforms ๐Ÿ˜‰
13:23:07 <peter1138[d]> And icu...
13:23:13 <peter1138[d]> And harfbuzz.
13:23:16 <peter1138[d]> Yeah, perhaps not.
13:23:51 <michi_cc> Yeah, Uniscribe requires using GDI fonts. And not using Uniscribe has a heap of depenencies again (same for OSX).
13:24:39 <peter1138[d]> It's all so weird ๐Ÿ™‚
13:25:11 <peter1138[d]> It's almost like their APIs were cobbled together over 40 years...
13:25:18 <michi_cc> Just use Electron for the platform-agnostic text rendering /s
13:25:27 <michi_cc> WASM forever
13:25:32 <_glx_> IIRC Uniscribe has parts of ICU inside
13:26:37 <michi_cc> For Uniscribe I actually think not, but DirectWrite might use some if it. CoreText on OSX also uses ICU for some stuff internally, but wrapped enough that you don't hit the weired and crashy parts.
13:43:20 <peter1138[d]> /me ponders a better missing glyph search.
13:43:30 <peter1138[d]> Like I know what glyphs are missing.
13:43:50 <peter1138[d]> But currently the search requires a single font to have all of them.
13:44:47 <peter1138[d]> Possibly something like find a font with the largest compatibility, then search again for any remaining missing glyphs, and continue...
13:45:26 <peter1138[d]> Or get Zephyris to add CJK support hehehehe
13:50:38 <DorpsGek> [OpenTTD/OpenTTD] stormcone opened issue #14362: [Bug]: Some AIs crash with the message: This class is not instantiable https://github.com/OpenTTD/OpenTTD/issues/14362
13:53:39 <peter1138[d]> Carefully cropped the relevant line number ๐Ÿ™‚
13:56:41 <peter1138[d]> I don't have that revision.
13:57:12 <peter1138[d]> Let's update first ๐Ÿ˜„
14:01:29 <peter1138[d]> Works in my current revision, but that's before some API export changes.
14:38:39 <_glx_> Most likely one of the commit I just merged
14:39:10 <peter1138[d]> Yes, but I didn't want to do a Xarick ๐Ÿ˜‰
14:40:29 <andythenorth> was it lunch?
14:40:32 <andythenorth> I may have made errors
14:40:33 <_glx_> Oh I know exactly what happens, I removed useless exported default constructors (usually they are for classes with only static members)
14:40:54 <_glx_> And have no reason to be instantiated
14:41:51 <_glx_> OpenTTD used to create a Script object for them, now squirrel says don't do that
14:43:02 <peter1138[d]> Hmm, this one is failing to instantiatea AIPriorityQueue, which does have non-static members.
14:43:15 <_glx_> Then it's a bug
14:43:23 <peter1138[d]> It doesn't have ::Constructor override, though.
14:44:22 <_glx_> Relying on default constructor is no longer possible indeed
14:45:11 <_glx_> Hmm export should be able to detect that
14:45:27 <_glx_> It knows static and non static functions
14:45:52 <_glx_> I'll take a look later
14:49:29 <andythenorth> so is "Metro" a valid candidate for a track type in the standardised scheme? Or better as a proprietary label?
14:49:34 <andythenorth> michi_cc: ^ ๐Ÿ™‚
14:49:57 <peter1138[d]> What defines metro?
14:50:15 <andythenorth> "not a normal train"
14:50:15 <talltyler> Scary question to ask around here ๐Ÿ˜›
14:50:36 <peter1138[d]> talltyler: Deliberately ๐Ÿ™‚
14:51:00 <peter1138[d]> So is the "not a normal train" defined by its rail type?
14:51:12 <andythenorth> ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ
14:52:00 <andythenorth> there's an entirely viable way to do Metro within or without the standard scheme
14:52:06 <andythenorth> but it has People Problems
14:52:21 <andythenorth> specifically Foamer Problems
14:52:53 <peter1138[d]> Is it light-rail vs heavy-rail?
14:53:03 <peter1138[d]> Or is light-rail just trams?
14:53:22 <andythenorth> it's high density, medium speed
14:53:30 <talltyler> Depends on the player, but light rail is usually trams so they can drive on roads
14:53:40 <andythenorth> metro is very high pax capacity per tile
14:54:55 <peter1138[d]> Is the Metropolitan line a metro?
14:55:39 <andythenorth> one imagines
14:55:47 <andythenorth> all the way to Amersham
14:55:51 <andythenorth> in the fields
14:56:39 <peter1138[d]> Can normal trains run on a Metro, or is it just "not a normal train"?
14:56:47 <andythenorth> that's up to the railtype author
14:57:01 <andythenorth> it's not a vehicle set choice
14:57:08 <peter1138[d]> Okay.
14:57:30 <peter1138[d]> So metro is something different, but also not different.
14:58:15 <andythenorth> yes, you have it
14:58:19 <andythenorth> exactly
14:58:20 <peter1138[d]> I mentioned Metropolitan Line because my local train into London, which is not a metro, shares the rail tracks with the underground trains.
14:58:30 <andythenorth> it does, but then again
14:58:42 <andythenorth> 80:20 cases
14:58:47 <peter1138[d]> Which begs the question, what's the difference?
14:59:34 <andythenorth> as an actual list of differences?
14:59:41 <andythenorth> or in terms of cross-compatibility?
15:01:00 <peter1138[d]> Once the line gets closer to London, inside the M25, it has 4 parallel tracks. The non-underground trains only ever use one pair of them, but the underground trains can use both pairs.
15:01:14 *** Wormnest has joined #openttd
15:03:52 <andythenorth> seems the Chiltern trains use the tube network signalling
15:04:06 <andythenorth> they might have to be fitted with tube signal gear, dunno
15:04:25 <andythenorth> the outside conductor rail is 750v DC
15:04:41 <andythenorth> presumably the running rails are wired for current return
15:04:47 <talltyler> Yes, Chiltern trains have trip stops
15:04:52 <andythenorth> as the Chiltern units won't be 4th rail
15:05:05 <peter1138[d]> They're diesel.
15:05:09 <talltyler> Chiltern trains are also diesel
15:05:10 <talltyler> Yeah
15:05:11 <andythenorth> explains it
15:05:28 <peter1138[d]> So diesel is "powered on" metro tracks.
15:05:30 <andythenorth> there's also Tube services over national network lines to wimbledon
15:05:43 <andythenorth> but they must be 4th rail equipped
15:05:53 <andythenorth> ownership != rail type I guess ๐Ÿ˜›
15:07:40 <peter1138[d]> (Also it used to go to Verney Junction, and Brill (kinda), but that's prehistory...)
15:08:31 <peter1138[d]> Presumably the bottom of Brill, as it's a steep hill up to the tiny village...
15:08:46 <andythenorth> Rack Metro?
15:10:41 <peter1138[d]> How would you do a metro in the game, anyway>
15:10:56 <peter1138[d]> Most towns are not very big. Presumably a conurbation would help.
15:11:19 <peter1138[d]> Maybe house-placer the cities to make them bigger ๐Ÿ˜„
15:12:24 <michi_cc> The best way to distinguish Metro in the Scheme would probably the axle load (loading gauge), but given that sets mostly don't use that, you'd have to use a non-standard letter in with an internal API contract.
15:15:00 <michi_cc> This is what'd do if stuff like the Metropolitan line sharing tracks should be possible. Otherwise if Metro is to be interpreted like e.g. the heavy rail Singapore MRT or something, it is just a special one-off railtype with no compatibility to other railtypes whatsoever.
15:18:23 <andythenorth> it's probably just a one off railtype
15:18:47 <andythenorth> there are foamer handbags about it, because in some countries "3rd rail = metro" and in other countries not
15:25:18 <brickblock19280> Axle load feels hard to use unless you add a new value. Currently there is no way of doing broad gauge metro other than BA*3 as MTRO is interpreted as standard gauge generally. A distinction between 3rd rail mainline and metro 3rd rail would also be very nice so they can be handled differently
15:26:06 <talltyler> Who would build a broad gauge metro?
15:26:30 <talltyler> (I live a few blocks away from one)
15:26:53 <brickblock19280> USSR also has a few
15:28:11 <peter1138[d]> Is it a distinction that needs to be made?
15:30:34 <brickblock19280> I think so since I'd like to treat them differently
15:32:18 <peter1138[d]> And much like my earlier questions, is it different from non-metro broad guage?
15:32:35 <andythenorth> looks compelling that these are private labels
15:32:44 <_jgr_> Basically everything in the ex-USSR is broad gauge, but otherwise it's not really different from the standard gauge equivalent
15:33:29 <andythenorth> "in soviet russia, broad guage watches you"
15:34:02 <brickblock19280> peter1138[d]: Idk about broad tbf but it is an issue for standard gauge
15:34:10 <peter1138[d]> What's the issue?
15:34:15 <michi_cc> > It is the explicit intent of this scheme to decouple track sets from vehicle sets to facilitate easy mixing.
15:34:15 <michi_cc> -> So if you want tight coupling and control over all aspects, use something else.
15:35:07 <peter1138[d]> It seems like the issue is that people want to force "metro" trains and "normal" trains to run on separate tracks, because that's how they are run in real life.
15:35:09 <andythenorth> within Russia "standard guage" is allegedly 1520mm, and 1435mm is "European gauge"
15:35:22 <andythenorth> such context problems ๐Ÿ˜›
15:38:26 <peter1138[d]> Isle of Wight use to run London Underground trains, or something.
15:38:43 <peter1138[d]> Not sure it was a metro though.
15:39:20 <peter1138[d]> I've been given a golden Toblerone.
15:39:26 <peter1138[d]> It's somewhat sweet.
15:40:15 <brickblock19280> They were rebuilt quite a bit from what I know I would not consider them metro vehicles

15:45:36 <notluke2578> albeit very modified
15:46:37 <brickblock19280> michiccviaGitHub: Road vehicles could have A and a removed from the standard as they are for amphibious vehicles
15:47:55 <brickblock19280> Also what does it mean that railtypes are compatible and why was it not added for roadtypes?
15:48:49 <michi_cc> No idea ๐Ÿคท I have been mostly ignoring NRT.
15:49:41 <andythenorth> I am very dubious that a roadtype standard scheme will work
15:49:43 <andythenorth> but eh
15:49:48 <michi_cc> I still find the whole tram and road are totally different, oh, not, wait, there are exactly the same, or are they a bit confusing.
15:50:18 <andythenorth> whenever nml is extended I find the same ๐Ÿ™‚
15:50:24 <andythenorth> but they are what they are ๐Ÿ™‚
15:50:25 <talltyler> Amphibious trains when?
15:50:37 <talltyler> We need a frosch hovercraft patch
15:50:41 <andythenorth> "life is untidy" etc
15:50:47 <peter1138[d]> Yeah, sorry, I guess I fucked up with NRT when I finished it. Don't think anyone has much good to say about it.
15:51:17 <andythenorth> we can't both try and have 100% of the shame about it ๐Ÿ˜›
15:51:34 <andythenorth> there has to be finite amount of shame
15:52:01 <_jgr_> I don't see that there needs to be any shame TBH, change happens incrementally
15:52:21 <talltyler> People like to complain but forget to say nice things ๐Ÿ™‚
15:53:40 <andythenorth> NRT doesn't have compatible because powered covers it
15:53:55 <andythenorth> unpowered RVs don't exist
15:54:19 <brickblock19280> Makes sense
15:55:55 <peter1138[d]> Trains consists are manually composed, road vehicles are not.
15:58:15 <brickblock19280> andythenorth: There is one issue with the Terrain / Stability class in that a A class vehicle would be remapped to a B class if A is not available and you might not want 3 vehicles per surface. 14357 could solve this but then very few roads would be allowed to be built over each other even when vehicles are expected to cross without issue
15:59:27 <peter1138[d]> Road types are way more just cosmetic than rail types, I suppose.
15:59:49 <peter1138[d]> Speed limits being defined by a road type is odd ๐Ÿ˜„
16:00:23 <brickblock19280> Currently yes but it doesn't have to be

16:02:17 <peter1138[d]> This is irritating.
16:02:45 <brickblock19280> Dedicated bus roads are possible and special vehicles for motorway and dirt is pretty nice since it allows different paths for for the same route
16:03:37 <wensimehrp> peter1138[d]: Classic Noto ๐Ÿ˜„
16:04:22 <wensimehrp> Imo this should be the default behaviour actually
16:04:44 <peter1138[d]> Yeah, 1) I can't really think of heuristic for "font that supports the characters we need that also looks nice" and 2) the size differential again ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
16:06:36 <peter1138[d]> Hmm, maybe I can simplify font caches by ordering them highest priority first, instead of last.

18:21:50 <peter1138[d]> Hmm, can I pick size by ascender instead of "pixels" which are scaled to "points" which is more like the "canvas size".
