05:58:24 <DorpsGek> - Update: Translations from eints (by translators)
07:52:51 <peter1138> Well, for further optimisation, GetTownRoadType() could be a global variable that's only updated as road types become available.
09:57:40 <LordAro> battery fire next door was quite exciting
09:57:49 <LordAro> things exploding all over the place
09:58:37 <LordAro> they're having what i'm sure is a very nice chat with the firefighters now
09:59:24 <peter1138> Always buy direct from China because it's cheaper.
11:05:38 *** WormnestAndroid has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
11:05:55 *** WormnestAndroid has joined #openttd
11:12:00 <peter1138> Kinda immeasurable.
11:12:31 <peter1138> Vanilla, 27705 calls in (avg) 54µs.
11:12:49 <peter1138> Patched, 618 calls in 0µs
12:38:15 <peter1138> On the other hand, one this PR is a simple enough change, the other patch is clearly a premature optimisation.
13:33:33 *** Wormnest has joined #openttd
14:35:01 <LordAro> honestly i wonder if storing the grf caches wouldn't be the worst thing in the world
14:35:07 <LordAro> how much data are we really talking?
14:53:30 <peter1138> Something like around 30 bytes per vehicle
15:21:42 <LordAro> absolute completely unachievable upper limit of 1.2MB? I think we can cope
18:09:51 <andythenorth_> was it 127 cargos?
18:32:49 <andythenorth_> 255, always leave a bit free for luck
18:34:13 <andythenorth_> maybe I have some wine
19:52:39 <andythenorth_> added nuclear power to FIRS
19:52:44 <andythenorth_> should I date limit it?
20:46:03 <_zephyris> Is a date limit fun?
20:47:59 <Rubidium> LordAro: upper limit would rather be in the order of 60 bytes per vehicle (vcache + acache + newgrf cache) times 1 million vehicles => ~60 MB
20:52:33 <peter1138> Yeah, I missed a cache.
20:57:47 *** Flygon has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
20:59:21 *** Wolf01 has quit IRC (Quit: Once again the world is quick to bury me.)
22:08:12 <andythenorth_> been generating maps for 2 hours :P
22:09:25 <andythenorth_> is there a combination of settings that will get a moderately hilly map?
22:41:33 <peter1138> 256 cargo types would fix it.
22:43:45 <andythenorth_> maybe I should finish my GS
22:45:54 <andythenorth_> what's that plain text thing :o
23:34:37 <will_marshall_> I'd design an economy but some smart alec posted a load of stuff about their vaporware newgrf so now I don't want to in case someone says I stole their ideas.
23:35:16 <will_marshall_> I know, I should do it anyway. I have enough projects.
23:39:10 <belajalilija> will_marshall_: Do it
23:39:25 <belajalilija> Maybe i can be mean to them if they’re annoying
23:39:45 <will_marshall_> Paying you a retainer to be annoying to people who aren't me 🧠
23:39:46 <belajalilija> I’m curious what a vapourwave grf would be
23:40:07 <will_marshall_> Vaporwave base set would go really hard but nobody has the time for that.
23:43:00 <belajalilija> Depends how you do it
23:43:44 <belajalilija> I mean, making everything look glassy and geometric would be hard
23:44:25 <will_marshall_> start with the aborted night-time baseset and just give everything neon glow
23:44:48 <belajalilija> I was gonna suggest recolouring everything
23:45:21 <belajalilija> To give it 90s Springfield at night vibes
23:45:25 <will_marshall_> There was a night-time base set right? I'm not imagining that.
23:47:09 <belajalilija> It’s such a vibe
23:47:43 <belajalilija> OpenTTD with a bisexual pride flag filter xd
23:47:50 <talltyler> NightGFX is what you're thinking of
23:48:01 <will_marshall_> Was it ever... finished?
23:48:18 <talltyler> Yes! It's not super playable, though, quite dark and hard to see 🙂
23:48:25 <talltyler> (and doesn't support NewGRFs)
23:48:37 <will_marshall_> More like NewGRFs don't support it?
23:49:05 <belajalilija> My grf could easily support it
23:49:24 <talltyler> I haven't tried the brightened version, maybe it's more playable now
23:49:59 <will_marshall_> I remember approximately 600 years ago shopping some of my screenshots to look like night-time.
23:50:09 <will_marshall_> Was a bit of a trend, fun to do.
23:50:41 <will_marshall_> moon trains, trains on the moon
23:51:39 <belajalilija> belajalilija: The base sprites all have only the 8 shades of cc1, 8 shades of window purple and a few greys
23:52:41 <will_marshall_> I could probably implement it, between gorender fun and recolour sprites.
23:54:05 <will_marshall_> Send me to bed before I embark on something.
continue to next day ⏵
