13:11:52  <peter1138> Oh ffs. I just did it again.



13:12:06  <peter1138> Merged a commit with "Fix [Import} ..."



13:12:26  <peter1138> I'm not going to rewrite history so it'll have to bug me forever :(



13:18:59  <LordAro> :(



13:47:50  <will_marshall_> I have, on occasion, in the dead of night, hidden a series of embarrasing fuckups on the perforce server by strategically `obliterate`-ing select changelists.



13:48:20  <will_marshall_> I don't know if it's more evil to rewrite history on a centralized VCS or a distributed one.



13:50:26  <LordAro> it's certainly a lot more obvious on a distributed one



13:51:24  <will_marshall_> Especially one that handles history rewrites as elegantly as Git (don't like it? here's a commit hash, go fish)

20:00:04  <ic111> I came across OpenTTD again, and I wonder wether giving these two some life again might be a senseful long-term-goal for me: Sophisticated river generator https://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?t=71970 (manual https://www.tt-forums.net/download/file.php?id=182200), improved timetables https://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?t=63721 (contents https://www.tt-forums.net/download/file.php?id=180898).   Yes, both very old, I spent a lo



20:00:34  <ic111> Thus, question: Do you regard their idea (we don't need to talk about details) as senseful additions to the game?



20:01:22  <ic111> Reason why I ask this: Maintining such changes in the long term would be a lot of work, and thus it's interesting beforehand what people think about their direction / idea



20:02:35  <ic111> As for the rivers, I added a dropdown "river generator" to the map generation, and then my river generator as second choice.   It's idea is to simulate rainfall on the whole map, and then generate rivers, lakes in basins, and so on in a as real-world as possible fashion.



20:03:30  <ic111> As for the timetables, my main idea was that one needs some kind of absolute timetable orders in order to synchronize different vehicles in time.  E.g. "they always meet at station X at the first of the month"



20:04:20  <ic111> And I talk about long-term goal; I have a busy life myself, this is nothing which would happen fast...



20:08:00  *** brickblock19280 has joined #openttd



20:08:00  <brickblock19280> For timetabling you might want to look at jgrpp



20:09:22  <brickblock19280> It introduces scheduled dispatch which has trains departing from a station at set times making it relatively easy to set up timed transfers and such



20:09:52  <brickblock19280> https://github.com/JGRennison/OpenTTD-patches/releases



20:12:49  <ic111> Thank you.  Do you know wether there are somewhere screenshots of the jgrpp timetabling around?



20:14:29  <mmtunligit> i think most jgrpp timetable pictures are on the discord in the model railroading section



20:14:52  <mmtunligit> but you can also just download the patch and play around with it



20:19:43  <ic111> Discord means https://discord.com/invite/openttd ?



20:21:22  <mmtunligit> yes



20:21:26  *** yiffgirl has joined #openttd



20:21:26  <yiffgirl> that's the one



20:21:41  <yiffgirl> see you soon :)



20:22:08  <ic111> The captcha of that one just drives me mad --- I already solved about ten tasks, and always the next one appears instead of letting me in...

20:49:34  *** WormnestAndroid has joined #openttd



20:54:20  <ic111> As I'm seeing now the screenshots: At first glance, jgrpp looks powerful but much more complicate than everything I had in my patch back then.  I don't know yet what I should think about it...  



21:08:46  *** ic111 has quit IRC (Quit: Page closed)



21:21:17  <peter1138> Eh

21:28:32  *** WormnestAndroid has joined #openttd



21:57:14  <mmtunligit> im personally of the opinion of "leave the complex timetables to jgrpp"



21:57:43  <mmtunligit> he have casuals and power users and its probably fo the best that the power users have their own branch



21:58:06  <mmtunligit> better river gen would be cool though

22:49:47  <reldred> this meme but it's just jgrpp and openttd



22:50:04  <reldred> hardly gatekeeping if both gates are next to each other, open, and unlocked 😛



22:50:16  <reldred> and both lead to the same path of oblivion
