Is there a version of the daylenght patch where the production can be adjusted?

regards!

I'm currently working on it. Just reading values from config file is failed. Anyone has any idea?

That looks horrible to be honest. If you don't cross the "Divide monthly cargo production by day length factor", then you have ordinary day length patch. Just look for different author (or my first concept) and you will have it, just more stable! And furthermore, you changed the DAY_TICKS, which will cause all kinds of problems no matter the settings. If I would use yours patch, day length factor 10 and I would like to divide cargo production, I can see that the game will run 100x slower.

EDIT: I am wrong with the last statement.

is there a zipped/compiled version of the "first" daylenght patch with adjusted production?
Unfortunately i can´t compile

Make a try with my very fresh patchpack :YAPP . Be the first beta tester and please report any bugs! (You can disable all extra features if you want the stock game.)

Okie, I got it. Then take a look at my second try with cargo production concept heavily based on your patches.

I just quickly looked at it. From my perspective, it's just updated patch from the first post (my first approach). No need to comment more.

Yes, but i can't fully update your patch. I have a question: The day_length_balance_factor has no effect on buying vehicles, but it multiplies the cost of cloning the same vehicle. Which was the correct concept? Then i'll know what's my fault.

Honestly I don't know anymore such details about it anymore. But from your description, there's just some bug now, because of some feature in trunk now, I would guess. I abandoned that patch and I don't plan ever on returning to it so I am not going to help you with developing it.

I've updated the patch file to the latest trunk version (1.4.0-beta3/r26274). I haven't edited it beyond making it patch against the newer version of the code but it compiles OK and a quick test shows that it seems to work.

I'm unable to get this to work. I get an error whenever I attempt to connect to a server.

'Could not load savegame' if I compile it myself.

A straight ctd if I receive a compiled Windows version from someone else. Have you managed to get it working, ropier?

Nope, I'm having the same issue. I'm going to take some time to figure out how this actually works and how to fix it.

Thanks for the efforts!

In the first post, OP metioned a bug in Autorail pricing. Well, this screws up my game in the YAPP-patchpack by DC-1 a lot...
Is there any chance this bug has been fixed?

Hi, Im kind of new into openTTD and absolutely a noob on patching and compiling.

I followed this guide:

http://wiki.openttd.org/Compiling_on_%2 ... x_and_*BSD

I managed to patch the source with an automated timetable patch and i played for a while, but then tried the same with this daylength patch and had no luck.

This is what i did:
But im getting:
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

check the first few lines of the patch (with "head"), if the paths start with "a/" and "b/", use "-p1" instead of "-p0"

merging daylength probably needs further touchups in places where DAY_TICKS is used in the timetable patch.

Given that -p0 results in trying to find "command.cpp", my guess is you need to run the patch -p0 command from the "src" directory.

Yeah, tried both p0 and p1, neither one worked.

And indeed, patching both, automated timetables and daylength patch gave errors and "make" did not work.
