01:07:39  <talltyler> What if some lighthouse spawned on small islands? 👀



01:08:39  <talltyler> peter1138: Every time I see your new lighthouse rocks a small sailor voice in my head shouts _"YE SHALL BE DASHED UPON THE ROCKS"_



01:14:26  <talltyler> Hmm, 1/10 seems maybe too rare



01:14:44  <talltyler> Programmer number, 1/8 😛

10:16:40  <_zephyris> talltyler: Thinking about better randomly placed object support, any chance of hooking the lighthouse/island code into newgrf support?



10:16:48  <_zephyris> May well be a different PR though

11:50:31  <peter1138> _zephyris, that would belong in my PR that already handles the existing bits.

12:51:29  <talltyler> I am aware that I'm probably making a mess of the NewGRF-support PR 🙁



12:51:45  <talltyler> Goes it release beta3 today?



12:52:43  <talltyler> Just need a couple of reviews on my PRs to update the changelog and add the website post, I can handle the rest.

15:44:30  <peter1138[d]> Hmm

15:52:32  <peter1138[d]> Hmm, somehow the layout ended up different as well, but that seems fine anyway?



15:53:31  <_zephyris> Yes please.



15:54:22  <_zephyris> Scale black border with bevels (and line width with UI scale, obvs).



15:54:35  <peter1138[d]> It is :-)



15:56:05  <peter1138[d]> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1008473233844097104/1550898283977642087/image.png?ex=6ab00215&is=6aaeb095&hm=1a14fb12758cd9271701b93a3a1168f195704bc30c4724fad1301077175d222e&

15:57:57  <peter1138[d]> Old vs new connection lines again



15:59:54  <peter1138[d]> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1008473233844097104/1550899243097653308/image.png?ex=6ab002f9&is=6aaeb179&hm=1aa8286a52696d7fea7373630d0b2e2a8907c9321a88fa6d7d1b5452d1c36903&



15:59:54  <peter1138[d]> And cargo view too



16:00:08  <peter1138[d]> Still need to put the blobs back mind.



16:01:10  <brickblock19280> At first I couldn't tell what you'd changed but this is amazing



16:01:26  <brickblock19280> What are the industry colours tho?



16:02:28  <peter1138[d]> light blue: supply-only, green: accept-only, brown (was yellow last time): supply & accept, and grey: houses.



16:02:56  <peter1138[d]> Basically tells you where a chain starts or ends.



16:04:45  <peter1138[d]> Also wondering if I can make rows shrink if possible.



16:05:45  <tabytac> Is there space for a key to understand the 4 different colours on the window or like how the graphs have a key?



16:12:09  <brickblock19280> Would it make sense to do it based on industry production type instead? A lot of industry sets have primary industries that accept cargo



16:19:30  <talltyler> Probably, yeah



16:19:47  <talltyler> Extractive / Organic / Processing / Black Hole



16:20:24  <talltyler> Plus Houses



16:21:08  <talltyler> I really like the new connection lines, what a huge improvement



16:25:55  <peter1138[d]> I will also improve the tooltips.



16:28:13  <peter1138[d]> Slight problem with the Extractive/Organic/Processing/Black Hole stuff is they are flags and can come in various combinations. (Except Black Hole, which is an absence of flags)



16:29:37  <peter1138[d]> Shame there's no black/dark grey widget colour for black hole :-)



16:32:34  <peter1138[d]> Hmm, cargo stubs are a bit inconsistent.



16:34:08  <DorpsGek> [OpenTTD/OpenTTD] Rito13 opened pull request #16017: Codefix: Comments in GS code stating that they are about AI https://github.com/OpenTTD/OpenTTD/pull/16017



16:35:16  <peter1138[d]> Also, the vanilla Bank is flagged as a black hole, even though both produces and accepted valuables.



16:35:34  <andythenorth[d]> badges override flags? 👀



16:35:44  <peter1138[d]> Badges aren't colours.



16:36:00  <peter1138[d]> Badges *could* be visible here.



16:36:19  <andythenorth[d]> badges everywhere



16:36:50  <peter1138[d]> I'm not sure if anyone has put flags on industries yet.



16:39:49  <andythenorth[d]> I have not



16:39:53  <andythenorth[d]> * badges



16:41:13  <peter1138[d]> Oops



16:42:05  <squirejames> Aren't banks functionally black holes in that, yes, they accept valuables and produce them, BUT the acceptance does not alter the production (unlike say a factory where you need to supply it to get goods out)

17:20:25  <peter1138[d]> Was it a bug that cargo stubs didn't appear for houses?



17:21:45  <peter1138[d]> They currently only appear if the cargo type is already included by an industry, or something like that.
