Nice work, Roujin!

About that bug with four one-way roads facing away from the junction: I wouldn't bother too much to fix that, because vehicles wouldn't ever use that junction; they simply can't reach it! As soon as one makes the junction 'usable', the traffic lights will appear.

Okay, okay, i get it: i'm NOT the genius i think i am! :roll: Where is the non-.diff? I read the thread on applying .diffs and i really would like to avoid SVN and recompiling and all that! But i REEEALLLY want traffic lights! :P

I read thru all the pages and somehow i missed it. But let's be fair, he made it sound like it was the first page of that THREAD. :roll: i'm not dum, you know...

IOW, thanx, dude. :))

Roujin, it seems that the patch use a lot of CPU when there are road vehicles and 3-4 traffic lights in a city.

Do you notice it ?

Alas, i could not use it. I'm using OTTD under Win98SE, and it doesn't get listed in the .grf list in-game. I also tried using the compiled version but it's not for Win98...

...and my daydreaming continues :( ...

this grf is not to be activated in the list.

and BuildOTTD is the easiest solution for win98.

Thanks for your bug report, I think I have found and removed the cause (at least the slowdown I noticed with the old version in a quick test game was gone).

Also, trunk has undergone a savegame bump since the last version of trafficlights, so now is the first chance to see if my savegame version concept works. Basically, it should be able to load both older versions of this patch (e.g. v2) AND current trunk (r12905). Normally, a trunk savegame bump kills savegame compatibility for patches. I also tested this and it worked for me, but it was only a quick test, so if you stumble over savegame incompatibility, please report it.

Yep, CPU usage back to normal, thank you. :)

trafficlights_r13265_33.diff

[Sync] r13265
[Remove] Savegame versioning system was too much of a hassle.

I hope it doesn't upset anyone that I've removed the savegame versioning system. In fact, there have been some drastic changes to the settings (previously patch options) in recent trunk, and maybe there are more ahead. I might reintroduce it as soon as I'm convinced the settings system will stay as it is again.

Until then, I can't guarantee for savegame compatibility. To be specific, as soon as savegame version is bumped in trunk, savegame compatibility here will break. That said, this version will not load from any older versions of trafficlights. It will load from any clean trunk though.

Could you make a new GRF file with all recent changes please?

UPD: Or say how I can merge all .diff files to make the GRF?

This is a patch, which is very different from a NewGRF file.

You can't.

To use a patch you have to compile the game yourself, or download some binaries compiled by someone else. More information on patching / compiling can be found in the sticky topic in this forum and on the OpenTTD wiki.
