| 12:53 | <Nite> | Hi |
| 12:53 | <Nite> | the old mammoth trains setting was an equivalent to the max trainlenght 64 setting ? |
| 12:54 | <Eddi|zuHause> | technically, the max train length is 50 |
| 12:54 | <Nite> | so why can i set it to 64 ? |
| 12:54 | <Nite> | you mean stationsize is 50 max? |
| 12:55 | <Eddi|zuHause> | don't know, but you can only have 100 vehicles |
| 12:55 | <Eddi|zuHause> | in one train |
| 12:55 | <Eddi|zuHause> | at least you used to... |
| 12:55 | <Nite> | i try that (stationsize is also 64 btw) |

| 13:02 | <Nite> | seems teh 50 limit has fallen i can do 64 trains even with very short wagons |
| 13:04 | <Eddi|zuHause> | interesting. never tried in a long time... |
| 13:05 | <Nite> | how do i get information on how many wagons a train has without counting - max load / singel waggon load might work |
| 13:05 | <Nite> | i like long trains though large station sizes make beaming toomcuh possible to not do it ;) |
| 13:06 | <V453000> | you use 50 tile long trains? |

| 13:07 | <V453000> | I am not asking about testing but casual use :) |
| 13:07 | <Nite> | is a fixed minimum spacing between industries possible |
| 13:07 | <@planetmaker> | yes |
| 13:08 | <Nite> | - off ocurse it is more experimental atm - buzt i plan to have a game with 32 at least |
| 13:08 | <Nite> | ok and how do i set that? |
| 13:09 | <@planetmaker> | (re-)code your industry newgrf |

| 13:09 | <Nite> | (if i set the min space between industries to doubel the station size i would not be able to beam) |
| 13:10 | <@planetmaker> | but there's somewhere in the adv. setting a min separation setting, too, IIRC |
| 13:10 | <Nite> | can i set it for ottd in general in some config file? |
| 13:10 | <Nite> | i will look for it |
| 13:11 | <@planetmaker> | settings->economy->industries->flat area around industries: n tile(s) |
| 13:11 | <@planetmaker> | but that does not generally stop industries being build adjacent. |

| 13:53 | <z5000man> | really? wow. Transport Tycoon was the foundation to so many games. |
| 13:53 | * | DanMacK prefers to play solo though... AI's are generally just annoying |
| 13:53 | <@planetmaker> | That's why I got stuck with this game... |
| 13:53 | <@planetmaker> | ...playing online got me somewhat addicted to this game :-) |
| 13:53 | <DanMacK> | It was the foundation, and that's why it's the most solid of all of them |
| 13:54 | * | DanMacK has been playing off and on since it came out |
| 13:54 | <DanMacK> | Now however, mostly on |
| 13:55 | <z5000man> | My favorite game was on a US map, I started it in 1950 with 3 AIs, and played it through. A lot of time, but a lot of fun. |
| 13:55 | <Nite> | also we often are asleep while playing ;P |
| 13:56 | <DanMacK> | Should try that on Open TTD, starting on a large US Map with 3 new AI's and the North American Renewal Set :P |

| 14:53 | <simon_> | is there a way to change company without cheating? |
| 14:54 | <Zuu> | Also for music you need a music pack. |
| 14:54 | <Zuu> | But if it skips the songs you probably got songs :-) |
| 14:55 | <@planetmaker> | simon_: what's wrong about cheating the correct company? |
| 14:55 | <@planetmaker> | would you use it if it was called "switch companies" as it is in on a server? |
| 14:57 | <simon_> | if you cheat, you won't get listed in the highscore table... |
| 14:59 | <Eddi|zuHause> | simon_: the other option would be joining a multiplayer game hosted locally, but you will need twice the processor power |
| 14:59 | <simon_> | I mean, there could be a paramter to load a game, that you play company #nr |
| 14:59 | <simon_> | or something like that |

| 15:00 | <dihedral> | then you can simply 'move' to the company |
| 15:01 | <simon_> | jah, I know... but thanks anyt |
| 15:01 | <simon_> | way |
| 15:01 | <dihedral> | it will not affect anything else, as nobody will be able to connect to your server at home unless you have setup forwarding |

| 15:08 | <simon_> | right from the beginning |
| 15:08 | <simon_> | you can also just watch a game without actually playing a company |

| 15:09 | <Rubidium> | like saying you might need to relogin before some changes take effect |
| 15:10 | <dihedral> | ah :-) |
| 15:10 | <dihedral> | i was just curious ;-) |
| 15:10 | <dihedral> | yes, you should be able to simply move between companies freely :-) |
| 15:10 | <Rubidium> | in 99% of the times it works just right, but it's just the 1% that goes wrong you don't want to write a second message for |
| 15:10 | <dihedral> | especially as server |
| 15:10 | <Rubidium> | I'm not talking about the "move" command though |
| 15:10 | <dihedral> | eh? |
| 15:11 | <Nite> | (a merge companies option comes to mind here ... btw ) |
| 15:12 | <z5000man> | okay. Timidity is installed |
| 15:12 | <dihedral> | which would be the same as buying it out |
| 15:14 | <Rubidium> | dihedral: you know... the company windows having the "join" button and the company dropdown (occasionally) having the "spectate" option? |
| 15:14 | <Nite> | true, teh same but without bancrupcy before |
| 15:15 | <Rubidium> | z5000man: are you trying to make the music play or the sound effects? |
| 15:15 | <Rubidium> | if it's the music, you might need to manually start the music in-game as when it fails to play the music it automatically stops trying |
| 15:16 | <Nite> | just merge two existing companies if two players agree ... (not a must have, but a often thought idea i guess) |
| 15:16 | <z5000man> | Rubidium: either would be nice |
| 15:17 | <z5000man> | quick question first. Is the game supposed to be installed in a certain directory? |
| 15:17 | <Rubidium> | known-bugs.txt lists some problems with PulseAudio; it may be related with your problem |

| 15:47 | <xiong> | It seems my vehicles don't service when their service interval is reached. I've checked; and it's not a marginal thing: I just watched a road vehicle scheduled to service every 105 days bypass a depot although it was over 150 days since serviced. What can cause this, aside from setting 'no service if no breakdowns'? Is timetabling involved? Do go-to-depot orders screw up automatic servicing? Do all pros just order servicing explicitl |
| 15:47 | <xiong> | y, or force it, so the issue is considered trivial? |
| 15:48 | <@planetmaker> | that'll be in 1.1 |

| 15:50 | <xiong> | Oh, and yes, I have another hypothesis: that non-stop orders appear to suppress servicing. Trouble is, none of these seem to hold consistently. I've googled, wiki'd, forumed, and experimented. What am I missing? |

| 16:35 | <Eddi|zuHause> | i haven't seen a good matrix reference in years :) |
| 16:36 | <Rubidium> | sorry to disappoint you |
| 16:38 | <Eddi|zuHause> | 16 heightlevels are definitely not enough |
| 16:39 | <xiong> | Does anyone know any of the reasons why interval servicing can be ignored, apart from 'no service if no breakdowns'? What other reasons can there be for a vehicle to follow its orders blindly when it is overdue for service? |
| 16:40 | <Rubidium> | are you saying the maps are too big? |
| 16:40 | * | dihedral loves reading the backlog and finding out nicknames that seem to be generally ignored :-D |
| 16:40 | <andythenorth> | xiong: vehicles have been doing that for ages |
| 16:41 | <andythenorth> | I never found the cause |
| 16:41 | * | Eddi|zuHause wonders whether xiong is actually still ignoring me |
| 16:41 | <Nite> | they do it when they dont have a path to the depot |
| 16:41 | <dihedral> | the list of 'generally' seems to exclude andythenorth and Eddi|zuHause :-D |
| 16:41 | <xiong> | andythenorth, Good to know, I guess. |
| 16:41 | <andythenorth> | they also do it when they do have a path |
| 16:42 | <andythenorth> | RVs do it a lot |
| 16:42 | <xiong> | Nite, Um, yes. Then there's the case that a road vehicle passes right by a depot, even though it's way overdue. |
| 16:42 | <Eddi|zuHause> | hm... i can't even find a spot where it generated 16 heightlevels. most hills are only like 12 |
| 16:42 | <andythenorth> | xiong: use explicit servicing orders |
| 16:42 | <andythenorth> | or turn off breakdowns |
| 16:42 | <andythenorth> | it's not a good fix, but it's a fix :P |
| 16:42 | <xiong> | andythenorth, That was my thought, to always include servicing, one way or another. |
| 16:43 | <andythenorth> | it ought to get fixed, but exploring the pathfinder is way beyond me right now |
| 16:43 | <xiong> | I wanted to know if others had the same issue. You say yes, so that's good, I guess. |
| 16:43 | <Rubidium> | automatic servicing doesn't work when the depots are too far from the main network, in amount of pathfinder penalty |
| 16:43 | <Nite> | i almost always service by force ore order |
| 16:43 | <andythenorth> | xiong: it will only be addressed if (a) it can be predictably reproduced (b) someone's interested in fixing it |
| 16:43 | <xiong> | Rubidium, How does that account for a road vehicle driving right past a depot? |
| 16:43 | <Rubidium> | when you use path signals, it will search from the end of the reserved track. Thus... if you reserved past the depot it won't be going there |
| 16:43 | <Nite> | autoservcing jamming systems too much or sending trains where they should not go |
| 16:44 | <Rubidium> | finally vehicles check for automatic servicing at an interval (something like a day or so; don't know the exact value), so it can be too far away at one point and then have reserved the path past the depot at the next evaluation |
| 16:44 | <andythenorth> | planetmaker: thanks for fixing cb28 |
| 16:44 | <xiong> | Well, what about timetables, non-stop orders, and explicit depot orders? Do these affect interval servicing in any way? |
| 16:45 | <Eddi|zuHause> | this can't be right... i have tested about every mountain i could find, and could terraform at least one level higher, often two |

| 16:45 | <Eddi|zuHause> | is there an obiwan in clamping in the terrain generator? |
| 16:46 | <xiong> | That is, is a vehicle more likely to skip servicing if it is proceeding non-stop; or if it is late on its timetable; or if it has an explicit depot order somewhere in its orders? |
| 16:46 | <Nite> | any idea when the next beta is upon us? |

| 16:46 | <Eddi|zuHause> | Nite: there just was one. how often do you think there are any?!? |
| 16:47 | <andythenorth> | DanMacK: you're right, no eGRVTS vehicles for alcohol :o |
| 16:47 | <Rubidium> | Eddi|zuHause: have you tried the lowest sea level? |
| 16:47 | <andythenorth> | maybe I screwed up the cargo classes |
| 16:47 | <Rubidium> | for what it's worth I have no idea about the implementation of TGP, so it's just guess work |
| 16:47 | <xiong> | Also, only vaguely related to the previous: Is there a reason that a timetabled vehicle will not waste any early time in a depot or at a waypoint? It will only ever waste (idle, dwell) at a station, which usually is the last (busy) place I want that. |
| 16:48 | <Eddi|zuHause> | Rubidium: seems to be the same |
| 16:48 | <supermop> | xiong: i build 'yards' as stations to give them somewhere to wait |

| 16:49 | <Eddi|zuHause> | with lowest sea level there's a funny agglomeration of fishing grounds in every tiny pond :p |
| 16:49 | <andythenorth> | Eddi|zuHause: hah |
| 16:50 | <andythenorth> | indeed |
| 16:50 | <xiong> | I can put a vehicle on a year-long loop around the map and if there's a goto-depot order anywhere in it, it will ignore all interval scheduling. |
| 16:50 | <andythenorth> | fishing grounds do try and cluster too, which makes it worse |
| 16:50 | <andythenorth> | Eddi|zuHause: if you provide code....they could scale by map size :P |
| 16:50 | <xiong> | I thought might have been my subjective impression. |
| 16:51 | <xiong> | Rubidium, What about non-stop orders and being late on timetable? Do these also interfere with interval servicing? |

| 16:53 | <xiong> | supermop, My rail stations are built to force depoting. I tend to put road freight on timetable, since it's dropping, say, engineering supplies and needs to be predictable. |
| 16:53 | <Nite> | you mean auto servicing will thenb not happen at all? or just because it is serviced before autoservice? rubidium |

| 16:53 | <Nite> | Nite: avoids to use timetabeling - its just confusing me |
| 16:54 | <xiong> | supermop, The point being that arrival intervals are critical for primary industry growth. So, I've been putting a secondary stop a few tiles before the actual drop-off truck stop and putting extra time in there, in the timetable, then hustling the truck out of the waiting-stop to the real stop. I'd rather have that waiting-stop be a depot, obviously. |
| 16:55 | <Rubidium> | xiong: http://docs.openttd.org/vehicle_8cpp_source.html#l00170 |
| 16:56 | <xiong> | Nite, I believe that what Rubidium said was that any goto-depot order at all will suppress interval servicing. |
| 16:56 | <xiong> | Rubidium, I'll look but I seriously doubt that I'll understand it. |
| 16:57 | <andythenorth> | DanMacK: we can now plan windmill for FIRS :) |
| 16:57 | <xiong> | I'm not a software guy; I'm an old hardware dog. |
| 16:57 | <Eddi|zuHause> | andythenorth: it's way better with the slightly hihger sea level |
| 16:58 | <xiong> | Nite, Timetabling is difficult for me, too; but I'm starting to figure it out. |
| 16:58 | <andythenorth> | Eddi|zuHause: yeah |
| 16:58 | <andythenorth> | I'm not sure fishing industries are really compatible with minimum water |
| 16:58 | <andythenorth> | I wouldn't mind implemeting special case code for it, but only if someone else devises it :) |
| 16:58 | <xiong> | Nite, Part of it is the question of order #1. Since most orders loop around, it doesn't seem to matter which is first. I usually start my orders with the loading station and create vehicles at a depot near there; which makes sense, right? |
| 16:59 | <xiong> | You could just as well make order #1 the unloading station but then, newly created vehicles would want to unload first, which seems unreasonable. |
| 17:00 | <xiong> | But -- big but -- if you're timetabling, then (at least in my case), arrival time is critical, not departure. |
| 17:00 | <Eddi|zuHause> | dihedral: i "generally" can't ignore people ;) |
| 17:01 | <Eddi|zuHause> | andythenorth: might just have a "disable water-based industries" parameter, along the lines of "economies" |
| 17:01 | <xiong> | So, create all your new timetabled vehicles at a depot very near the unloading station, and with the unloading station order being order #1. Create them all with shared orders, and send exactly one of them out of the depot on its way, with "Autofill". |
| 17:02 | <andythenorth> | Eddi|zuHause: that's one possibility |
| 17:02 | <Nite> | sry i do not get your train orders withoug seeing them xiong |
| 17:02 | <Eddi|zuHause> | i'm not sure if the newgrf can detect land generation settings |
| 17:02 | <xiong> | That's the hard part, the part that frankly goes against my grain. Leave all the other vehicles in the depot until the first one has come back around. The very last order in the schedule is the depot itself. |
| 17:02 | <xiong> | Nite, I don't timetable trains; I timetable trucks. Trains are best handled with full-load orders. |
| 17:03 | <Eddi|zuHause> | fishing grounds seem to often come in pairs |
| 17:03 | <Eddi|zuHause> | not sure if that's useful |
| 17:03 | <Nite> | its simply overly tedious having to release the vehicles one by one in the distances you watn between them |
| 17:03 | <xiong> | In any case, my orders wouldn't look much different from any others. It's not the list; it's the way its managed. |
| 17:03 | <Nite> | so i only use the "wait for X days" sheldomly |
| 17:03 | <Eddi|zuHause> | but it looks fine overall |
| 17:04 | <Nite> | where can i look at it? |
| 17:04 | <Eddi|zuHause> | almost every pond with a fishing ground also has a fishing harbour |
| 17:04 | <xiong> | Nite, That I agree. You need to keep a sharp eye on the 'clock' and figure out, mentally, how often the vehicles must go out. But you can use the 'start date' feature to speed this up. |
| 17:04 | <andythenorth> | Eddi|zuHause: they try to colocate |
| 17:04 | <xiong> | You still need to do quite a bit of simple arithmetic and deal, somehow, with the issue of the odd number of days per month. |
| 17:05 | <andythenorth> | fishing harbours try to build within 64 pixels of fishing grounds |
| 17:05 | <andythenorth> | and vice versa |
| 17:05 | <andythenorth> | with some randomness |
| 17:05 | <@planetmaker> | good night |
| 17:05 | <Eddi|zuHause> | andythenorth: it seems appropriate in general |
| 17:05 | <andythenorth> | it is good on a high water map |
| 17:05 | <andythenorth> | however it's not optimal on low water maps |
| 17:05 | <andythenorth> | I've opened a ticket |

| 17:08 | <Nite> | thats what i meant xiong |
| 17:08 | <xiong> | Also, the point is not what you see; it's how you get there. It's a process, not a state. |
| 17:08 | <Nite> | sure you can keep your ottd intimacy ;) |
| 17:08 | <CIA-11> | OpenTTD: rubidium * r22013 /trunk/src/ (company_func.h depot_cmd.cpp functions.h timetable_cmd.cpp): -Codechange: move some functions out of functions.h |
| 17:09 | <xiong> | The whole issue of timetabling is sufficiently complex that there are a number of patches floating around out there to set headway automatically for a group of vehicles. I'm all for it! |
| 17:09 | <supermop> | i like the depature boards patch |
| 17:09 | <supermop> | makes it much easier for me |
| 17:09 | <xiong> | I'm especially incensed that when you set timetables in ticks that times are still set and shown in days -- dated days, too. |
| 17:10 | <xiong> | I do not like numerical dates and I don't like dates of any sort, anywhere, that don't conform to ISO format. |
| 17:11 | <Nite> | well what we want from timetables is clear at least - "a vehicel at a station every X days" |
| 17:11 | * | andythenorth does wonder |
| 17:11 | <andythenorth> | is newstations stalled? |
| 17:11 | <supermop> | use departure boards, then you only have to worry about a 24 hour clock |
| 17:11 | <Nite> | BUT i found teh fulload or not tactics best - so no timetable for me so far |
| 17:11 | <xiong> | Sorry; that came out self-contradictory. Combine the two: I don't like numerical dates except as YYYY-MM-DD. |
| 17:11 | <supermop> | what is that, andy? |
| 17:12 | <Nite> | newstatins where very fine, they are still not on bananas are they? |
| 17:12 | <xiong> | Nite, Usually I agree. But what about engineering supplies or farm supplies? These need to be distributed on a scheduled basis. |
| 17:12 | <Rubidium> | andythenorth: isn't it oldstations by now? Isn't it like mid previous decade? |
| 17:12 | * | andythenorth looks in his checkout :o |
| 17:12 | <xiong> | It's irrelevant whether one crate or 20 are delivered but the industry has to get at least one delivery per month; for safety's sake, let's say once per 20 days or even 15. |
| 17:13 | <Nite> | they can also be handeled with condi orders |
| 17:13 | <xiong> | It does no good at all to deliver twice as much the next month if you skipped this one. So, full load doesn't cut it. |
| 17:13 | <Rubidium> | newstations v0.44: Dec 28 2005 |
| 17:13 | <Eddi|zuHause> | as far as i can see, the clamping in tgp.cpp:993 is never actually reached. so there must be another limit before |
| 17:14 | <andythenorth> | newfoo |
| 17:14 | <xiong> | I have two solutions: The first is timetabled road vehicles, which I do agree, Nite, are tricky and time-consuming to set up. |
| 17:14 | <Nite> | i think conditional orders are perfectly fine and logical to set up |
| 17:14 | <xiong> | The other is to run a small train into the accepting station and *transfer* the goods out. Oddly enough, transferred goods will *not* be consumed by industry! |
| 17:14 | * | andythenorth does update newairports branch |
| 17:15 | <andythenorth> | last synced to trunk Nov 2010 |
| 17:15 | <andythenorth> | so not very stalled, no |
| 17:15 | <Rubidium> | oh... that newstations |
| 17:15 | <Eddi|zuHause> | what does this magic 3 do? MakeClear(tile, CLEAR_GRASS, 3); |

| 17:16 | <xiong> | Then, I put a tiny loop of road with two truck stops on it and set a single truck to load and unload at the same station. This can be slowed down, if it's rationing out the EngSups or FarmSups too quickly; if a backlog accumulates, a second truck can be laid on. |

| 17:17 | <@Yexo> | Ground types. Valid densities in comments after the enum. |
| 17:18 | <Nite> | you could also use a small truck and asecond station to feed teh industry constantly ... but its really hard to describe it all in words |
| 17:18 | <Nite> | examples are best |
| 17:19 | <xiong> | Nite, I tried the second station. It's not needed. If you transfer to the accepting station, rather than unload, the supplies stay until the loop truck delivers them, by loading and unloading. You don't even really need more than one truck stop but then the pathfinder complains about 'too few orders'. |

| 17:22 | <xiong> | Now, this *is* something relatively simple and something that can be apprehended pretty clearly with a static screenshot, with or without a saved game. Would anyone like to see a page put up for 'Regular Deliveries with Transfer Orders'? |
| 17:22 | <xiong> | Nite, Dunno. Fiddle with it. Make one order load, one unload. Works for me. |

| 17:22 | <Nite> | why dont just start a server and load your savegame - so anyone intrested could be in it? |
| 17:22 | <andythenorth> | or do you enjoy the challenge? |
| 17:22 | <xiong> | andythenorth, For me? Impossible. |
| 17:23 | <andythenorth> | for me....less so :P |
| 17:23 | <xiong> | Nite, You don't want me to run an OTTD server. I have not got any knowledge of how to do so -- and my machine is a laptop, so availability would be rather unpredictable. |

| 17:24 | <xiong> | andythenorth, Anyway, what would you patch? I don't have any issues with the regular delivery requirement. I'm having some issues with interval servicing. I have two good solutions to regular delivery. |
| 17:24 | <andythenorth> | well as long as you're having fun ;) |
| 17:25 | <Nite> | 4 your purpose xiong, you klick "multiplayer - start server" and set it up ... |
| 17:25 | <xiong> | In fact, my actual approach tends to be hybrid. I run a train full of supplies out to a station and transfer them. Then, I run a loop truck to deliver to the industry. For nearby industries, I run a timetabled truck route out, which also works off some of the surplus. |
| 17:26 | <xiong> | Nite, You are telling the dunce to pretend to be the professor. |
| 17:26 | <Nite> | i am doing what? |
| 17:27 | <xiong> | There are a very few things about this game that I understand well enough to tell someone else about. Certainly, I'm not going to set up Xiong's Demonstration OTTD Server'. |
| 17:27 | <xiong> | ... especially not on a laptop. |
| 17:27 | <Nite> | its not harder than to setup a singelplayer game |
| 17:27 | <Nite> | if your connection is fine you will be fine |
| 17:28 | * | andythenorth ponders some way to auto-fence industry tiles |
| 17:28 | <Nite> | (dedicated server is littel harder because you should know console commands) |
| 17:28 | <xiong> | Nite, I'm not sure you understand the point; I'm sorry. I have a laptop. I suspend its operations during most of each day. I only have it up for a couple hours at a time. |
| 17:29 | <xiong> | And although I could, in theory, run a server, what would be on it? What would I provide to other people, that they could not get elsewhere and better? |

| 17:30 | <xiong> | Any idiot can run a web server -- as we've seen. The challenge is to invent or gather worthwhile content to put out with it. |
| 17:31 | <xiong> | supermop, Um, again, to what purpose? If such people exist, I can think of better things for us to do together. |
| 17:31 | <supermop> | well, if that is your argument, why play games at all, |
| 17:31 | <xiong> | I mean, sorry, but I find the suggestion bizarre. Do you all want to come over to my house to play? I don't get it. But then, when I was a kid, I always played alone. |

| 17:33 | <Nite> | we are not invading your hous by tracking you ip findung your identity xiong, some woudl just take a look what you have built |
| 17:33 | <xiong> | I run several servers, of one sort or another; and for each, I try to provide something that you just can't get anywhere else. I mean, if someone else is doing better, why should I provide a crappy alternative? |
| 17:34 | <andythenorth> | supermop: it would use a bit mask to specify where to draw fences for a tile |
| 17:34 | <xiong> | Nite, I don't have too much worth showing. |
| 17:34 | <supermop> | yeah |
| 17:34 | <supermop> | that is what i was trying to do |
| 17:34 | <Nite> | kk it was just an idea ... |
| 17:34 | <andythenorth> | it can be done with nfo, but would be a bit bonkers |
| 17:34 | <supermop> | i ran into trouble with the number of possible sprites |
| 17:35 | <Nite> | since you seem to have something worth about chatting ;) xiang |
| 17:35 | <supermop> | seemed too hard to set up action 2 chain to handle 16 different possible states |
| 17:35 | <xiong> | Nite, This is, perhaps largely, a matter of orientation. If you want to know how somebody does something, I suspect, you want to join his server and observe, maybe ask questions, maybe ask him to do something while you watch. |
| 17:36 | <andythenorth> | supermop: exactly |
| 17:36 | <xiong> | But if I want to know how somebody does something, I want him to tell me where he has written up the documentation explaining it. I want words and pictures that don't change over small periods of time. |
| 17:36 | <andythenorth> | meanwhile rail tiles have something to auto-fence them |
| 17:36 | <andythenorth> | possibly it could be adapted to fence industry tiles |
| 17:37 | <andythenorth> | I should read that code |

| 17:37 | <Eddi|zuHause> | andythenorth: on each tileloop, the fences are adjusted, if necessary |

| 17:38 | <andythenorth> | nvm, the docs will tell me :) |
| 17:38 | <Eddi|zuHause> | andythenorth: m4 bits 3..0 |
| 17:39 | <xiong> | I might attach a savegame but that's brittle: might break under the next patch; or you might not have the same NewGRFs loaded. |
| 17:39 | <andythenorth> | not enough industry bits free :( |
| 17:39 | <Eddi|zuHause> | andythenorth: for rail tiles |
| 17:39 | <xiong> | ... or may want to set any one of a hundred variables differently than I have. |
| 17:39 | <@Yexo> | xiong: a savegame made with trunk without any newgrfs is quite safe |

| 17:40 | <xiong> | Yexo, Yes. And I definitely don't want to do that. Especially when demonstrating how to serve a FIRS industry. |

| 17:40 | * | andythenorth wonders if industries will ever need sloped fences |
| 17:40 | <@Yexo> | still sitting in my inbox, sorry |
| 17:40 | <@Yexo> | shouldn't be much trouble to get it up, but I forgot about it |
| 17:41 | <andythenorth> | if using custom foundations for a tile prevented fences....then sloped fences would never be needed |
| 17:41 | <xiong> | Yexo, It's not an issue for me, really; I have a version running on my own machine and that's enough. But it irks me a bit not to see it -- only a small bit. Hope you see my point in mentioning it. |
| 17:41 | * | andythenorth does think |
| 17:42 | <@Yexo> | xiong: sure, I'll get it up on coop devzone / bananas as soon as possible |
| 17:42 | <Eddi|zuHause> | why does the name "Fred" suddenly appear in my head? :p |
| 17:42 | <xiong> | On another note -- and this has nothing to do with you, Yexo, don't take it that way -- I see nobody has done a thing with bigsig, even though I broke my own word and published the graphics to forum. So much for 'draw it and they will build'. |
| 17:43 | <andythenorth> | Yexo: did you get stuck with newairports? Or bored :) |
| 17:43 | <andythenorth> | or other stuff? |
| 17:43 | <@Yexo> | all of them ;) |
| 17:43 | <andythenorth> | is it pathologically stuck? |
| 17:43 | <@Yexo> | got stuck, I've got some ideas on how to circumvent that but that means rethinking part of the spec |

| 17:44 | <andythenorth> | my motive is not pure |
| 17:44 | <xiong> | Actually, Yexo, I think I could reasonably demo regular servicing with transfer orders, with a plain vanilla game. It just wouldn't have the same... juice. |
| 17:44 | <andythenorth> | stations for industries on water are a bit unsatisfactory currently |

| 17:45 | <andythenorth> | ships would be fine |
| 17:45 | <xiong> | I wish that someone, instead of asking me to explain game mechanics I don't understand well, would ask me to draw graphics, which I do understand. |

| 17:49 | <andythenorth> | there is no 'mafia' industry in FIRS |

| 17:52 | * | andythenorth just had a disgusting idea |
| 17:53 | <@Yexo> | yes |
| 17:53 | <andythenorth> | I could patch the magic 'water industry' station tile |
| 17:53 | * | TruePikachu just thought you were using the term 'beta' instead of 'rc' |
| 17:53 | <andythenorth> | so it doesn't have acceptance if the industry is not the default oil rig |
| 17:53 | <andythenorth> | it's ugly |
| 17:53 | <andythenorth> | but the industry code has a gazillion ugly special cases already |
| 17:54 | <+glx> | TruePikachu: beta are special nighties |
| 17:54 | <+glx> | RC are done after branching |
| 17:54 | <@Yexo> | andythenorth: but that breaks newgrfs that expect that behavior from the magic water tile |
