12:35:34  <andythenorth> wonder how this would have gone, if we'd just pulled it from Steam? https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/SZjVciHx/image.png



12:36:06  <andythenorth> well, back to fixing heating systems



12:38:17  <reldred> Imo anyone who says that is a bloody tourist and obviously has no attachment to or love of OTTD



13:02:08  <andythenorth> I mean "mom's basement" almost certainly applies eh



13:02:15  <andythenorth> 50% of the internet



13:42:33  <DorpsGek> [OpenTTD/game-coordinator] MasterHellish commented on issue #251: STUN server can become unresponsive https://github.com/OpenTTD/game-coordinator/issues/251



13:44:54  *** masterhellish has joined #openttd



13:44:54  <masterhellish> Hope I put this in the correct place. I will repent my sin if so



14:00:20  <peter1138> Thanks



14:00:43  <_glx_> I'm handling a pending dependabot PR 😉



14:07:58  *** Wolf01 has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)



14:08:32  *** Wolf01 has joined #openttd



14:11:45  *** gelignite has quit IRC ()



14:21:45  <_glx_> merged a dependabot PR, hope it won't break more 🙂



14:24:10  <_glx_> and it's deployed



14:27:57  <_glx_> one of the libs had many known vulnerabilities which should now be fixed



14:44:24  <talltyler> Bad idea of the day: We should get some more dependencies so we can get a steady flow of dependabot PRs, to merge whenever the server needs restarting 😛



14:46:51  <andythenorth> Bad idea of the day: touching 120 degree solar thermal inflow pipe



14:46:59  <andythenorth> will not be typing with left thumb for some time now



14:53:56  <peter1138> https://www.theregister.com/2026/03/27/sycophantic_ai_risks/



14:54:27  <peter1138> "AI can lead mentally unwell people to..." I think AI is leading mentally well people as well.



14:54:32  <peter1138> Not necessarily to dark places mind.



15:06:24  *** Flygon has joined #openttd



15:15:23  <andythenorth> I find that I have strong distrust of GPT's sycophancy, and I've got better at managing some conflicts since I've been using it.  I don't get looped up in my own brain as much.



15:15:37  <andythenorth> but I'm not normal, I and I used to use em-dashes by choice.

16:16:47  <jfkuayue> andythenorth: do you need to go to A&E?



16:25:33  *** kuhnovic has joined #openttd



16:25:33  <kuhnovic> 2TT looks quite a bit different compared to a few years back. Nice beard.



16:28:21  <andythenorth> no hat?



16:29:34  *** audigex has joined #openttd



16:29:34  <audigex> I generally think that LLM chatbots are completely unsuited to any kind of "life" conversation. They sound far too much like a person without actually having any of the emotional understanding whatsoever



16:29:34  <audigex> It's an incredibly dangerous combination



16:30:50  <andythenorth> I'll take my own risks :P

17:52:18  <peter1138> Hmm, so, drive-through road depots.



17:52:26  <peter1138> Nobody will care because they're not rail depots :-)



18:03:51  <jfkuayue> maybe?



18:19:33  <peter1138> Maybe auto-connect to neighbours. Hmm.



18:33:40  <squirejames> Fly though hangars



18:33:48  <squirejames> For the 1920s Barnstormers in your games 😛



18:34:27  <squirejames> Although to be serious, drive through road depots would be handy. You could build proper Bus, Tram and Lorry depots that way. Extra handy for those people who love scheduling



18:44:35  <peter1138> :o



18:47:01  <kuhnovic> peter1138: I would like that! Of course I'm a developer so I'm not allowed to actually play the game...



18:47:35  <peter1138> I need to add a pathfinder call I thinK :)



18:48:02  <peter1138> Also handle hiding vehicles differently.

19:21:53  *** WormnestAndroid has joined #openttd



19:32:20  <peter1138> Instead, I made a C64 palette mode.



19:41:02  <talltyler> I’ll definitely use drive-through road depots, but yeah, rail depots are probably what people would be most excited about.



19:41:17  <peter1138> Small steps :)



19:42:13  <_zephyris> Only needed gfx are full length depots, right?



19:42:30  <talltyler> Small steps indeed.



19:52:37  <andythenorth> Drive through ship depots?



19:54:34  <talltyler> Aren’t they already?



19:54:34  <_zephyris> Might be controversial



19:54:50  <peter1138> No, full length depots are something else.



19:56:33  <peter1138> CGA mode 0 is, uh... well.



19:58:20  <_jgr_> Drive through rail depots with the same tile for both ends would seem a little difficult/awkward



19:58:48  <_jgr_> At least for things like reservations, vehicle movement from either end, etc.



20:00:27  <_jgr_> Are you thinking along the like of #8480, or something more slimmed down...?



20:30:23  <DorpsGek> [OpenTTD/OpenTTD] rubidium42 approved pull request #15402: Fix: improve appearance of toolbars and main menu images/text https://github.com/OpenTTD/OpenTTD/pull/15402#pullrequestreview-4025992115



20:31:26  <andythenorth> hmm Horse railtypes need better sprites



20:32:18  <andythenorth> https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/hFxNR6mz/image.png



20:32:46  <_zephyris> brings the cursor problem to mind



20:32:52  <andythenorth> vs https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/Ksb17R60/image.png



20:33:04  <andythenorth> quite inconsistent sizing compared to base set

23:09:53  <Tirili> Hi



23:10:18  <Tirili> When a bus arrives at a bus stops and unloads some passengers, the income value - say, 200 $ - is displayed in a green font.



23:10:18  <Tirili> I want to enable this display again, because somehow, the values are not displayed any more. Which settings do I have to look for?



23:20:14  *** spacemaniac[d] has joined #openttd



23:20:14  <spacemaniac[d]> Options and settings (gear menu) > Transparency options > loading and cost/income text (last one)



23:32:58  <Tirili> Ah, cool, that works! Than you.



23:35:02  <Tirili> Thank you, spacemaniac[d]
