How did I miss your last post


Congratulations

[Voyager One]

Sorry for bumping this but I think I've discovered a bug of a kind:

ChipsMaglevproblem.PNG (120.79 KiB) Viewed 5761 times

I noticed this while playing a Transrapid maglev from the DBXL set. I reproduced it with default engines and no other GRFs loaded too (CHIPS only as added NewGRFs).

Otherwise, this is a great thing to play with.

Ok, thanks. Reproduced. Newly added bug in 1.0.2

[JacobD88]

Although i recognise this project is classed as "finished" i've just found a small conflict with the ISR Style Dock GRFs; namely, the CHIPS GRF Contains a new dock sprite, that cannot be overridden by the ISR one; can a parameter be added to disable the CHIPS dock? Or can it be made to recognise the ISR Style Dock GRF and disable automatically?...

At present, the only way to get the ISR Style Dock is to remove CHIPS from my NewGRF list (which i'd rather not do as i use FIRS, ISR and CHIPS in many games)

Many thanks

I have the opposite issue. ISR dock over-rides CHIPS dock. Try changing the grf order?

Strange; there must be another GRF messing things up as i've tried moving the ISR Style GRF Above and Below the CHIPS one... Here's my current GRF List (ISR well above in this one; switching with CHIPS doesn't change it)...

EDIT: Found the problem; the ISR Dock has to be DIRECTLY below the CHIPS NewGRF, simply switching them over with other NewGRFs in between doesn't have an effect for some bizarre reason

I know this is done and all, but...

The concrete trackless station block appears as asphalt instead.

Can you post a screenshot & CHIPS version, cheers . Are you using opengfx base set? CHIPS might use the baseset tile for concrete (can't remember and can't check right now).

[Emperor Jake]

It could be a NewGRF that replaces the baseset concrete tile, I know one of the Japan sets does this and makes the building tiles look weird.

I'll post a screenshot tonight. I meant to last night but got distracted by a screaming 2 year old

[oftcrash]

Looking at it closer, its not the exact same sprite as the asphalt, but its also not the same as the concrete slab for the tracked station tile.

Here's a screenshot from a new game only running CHIPS.

CHIPS 1.6.1
OpenGFX 0.5.2
OpenTTD 1.6.1

This indeed does look like CHIPS using OpenGFX concrete tile.

Tried compiling the 1.9.0 version from source (because I want to add tiles with defined cargo instead of automatic), but it bugs out with the followiing:

/bin/sh: 1: hg: not found
...
/bin/sh: 1: hg: not found

The sprite following sprite 0 could not be processed.

Found a post mentioning hg is a git tool for mercurial so I don't think it's required, and when I commented out the mentioned nforenum line in the script it went on and stopped at a new error.
Running Debian stable and the grfcodec and nml packages are from the current repository. So, what went wrong?

Which repo are you using? https://github.com/andythenorth/chips ?

CHIPS doesn't compile for me either, looks like it might be a similar error. Probably broken because I moved the repo from hg to git.

I copied the source tar from http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/chips/releases/LATEST/ because I saw it there before.

In that case, I don't know I'll probably fix it some time.

Thanks. I'll probably begin creating the seperate station tile files with specific cargo in the meantime. It'll look so much better if for instance a raw material station actually shows each type in store instead of just one.
