Re: Friday Facts #300 - Special edition

kovarex looks almost like the team is holding him hostage, forcing him to fix all the trains logic without sleeping.
Break the signals in the next update, if this is true. We will notify officials.

Re: Friday Facts #262 - Hello my name is: Compilatron

Another way the Compilatron helps us keep the immersion intact is as a plot agent. Currently campaign plot events just 'happen' when objectives are completed, or when characters internal monologue decides the next move. Now we can have Compilatron act as a driving force to the campaign, it gives th...

Re: Adding rivers to the map generation

It is pretty difficult to get something structured from the noise-based generation. This was nearly the best I could achieve so far. The main problem for me is the implementation of interference between different branches of logic. Rivers tends suddenly end just before the seas or cross each other a...

Re: allow rotating carriages while connected

In general, the ability to rebuild a train without changing its id will be extrimly useful.
Even better if it will be possible to save train, modify it and place it somewhere later with same id as before.

Re: I think I accidentally overwrote Freeplay scenario

Which version are you using? It looks like a bug fixed in 0.16.44.
If you have steam version, try to verify integrity of game files. Otherwise... Well, reinstall will be easiest solution probably, though in fact you only need original data/base/scenarios/freeplay.

Re: Make desync reports helpful

Though i think the crc is calculated at least once per tick, so the direct cause should always be in the last tick. But the lua context itself is not included in the crc(at least I think so). Thus, you can spoil some variables(e.g. missinitialize them on join), and it will go unnoticed for a while.

Re: Make desync reports helpful

As far as I understand "some crc doesnt match another crc" is exactly how desyncs look from the engine's point of view. It is not possible to point to some line of mod code and the actual source of trouble can be in a million ticks in the past. On the other hand, an easy way to get a brief...

llvmpipe is a software renderer. Perhaps you did not install the proper driver for your GPU.
