Chunnel V23 r27765

[HackaLittleBit]

Hello

Update patch (See first post)
Changes:
1. Earlier version entrance was limited from 2 to 4 tiles from shore line.
This was altered to 2 to unlimited. (a limit could speed up tunnel searches somewhat)
2. Spaghetti was eliminated in CmdBuildTunnel proc.
3. Tile will high-lite on top of crossing tunnel if encountered.
4. Speedup of tunnel finding code. (IsTunnelInWayDir)
Search stops now on any non valid slope.

Bugs not known so please report

Regards

Is there not an easier way to get this working! ive tried the links but i still dont know what the hell to do.

I dont do programming and im looking at the web pages and programmes to get this working and im stumped

And this is such a good idea and always wanted it will this not be added in open ttd in the future?

Hello this patch going be trunked? or need fixing

[HackaLittleBit]

Update Patch.
See first post for patches and explanation.
Happy Chunneling.
I don't see three attachments in the first post so, here one more time the patch for Cirdan's branche.

Happy weekend!

Seeing your first post means that nmf's signals in tunnels is working with chunnels?
That would be awesome.

Thanks I will try the patch if I have time to compile another version from Cridan with
your patch.

Cheers

This is a very cool project. I've so far used some NewGRFs to immitate underwater tunnels.

I used Fake bridges NewGRF only to mimic waters. And yes, the tunnel I'm doing only allows Class 373 Eurostar trains to pass through, as you can see in the picture. The Eurostar i'm using is the BROS one. It's very simple, but very costy, and the length adds to its costs. You know raising the terrain out of the water costs more than raising it not out of the water, and i need to make a causeway across the straits to achieve that. Even by doing so, ships can't pass so i have to add canals and locks to it. I also added signals in the middle to achieve smooth traffic flow instead of waiting for one train to pass the tunnel at one time which will waste a lot of times. I've yet to try this out and i might not try though but I would love to have tiles like the canal but instead textured with the sea textures, together with sloping ones and the coasts and that the ships could traverse on sloping sea tiles just like how it would on a lock. Cool project by the way.

Update to trunk.
The patch is now working as it was intended.(jgr )
11 patches.
The first seven are related to chunnel.
The last four include bridge pool and some debugging info and are for experimenting.
It will change your savegame compatability.

Oil rigs can not be passed or constructed above the under water tunnel.
The portals need a minimum length of 4 tiles.
Once constructed those portals will stay the same and can not be removed while the tunnel is there.
terraforming between the portals is allowed, and can be removed if so wished.
For the rest all tunnel behaviour stays the same as it was.
There are no limitations about construction anymore.(exept oil rigs).
That means that building is allowed above the chunnel and between the portals if water is removed.(Polder)

Enjoy.

Update to trunk.
and more.
Thanks to a huge help of JGR(posts) the patch starts to look complete.
The chunnels can cross each other.
The vehicles inside cross each other on a different height level.
To cross another chunnel a distance of three tiles has to be respected.
Finding the tunnel is not (yet) done with a hash.
The last patch is to see vehicles inside the tunnel.(Smatz)

OMG this tunnels are great thing. I desperately need them in my game but unfotrunately I have a big problem in installing these into the game. I've spent two last hours reading manuals how to implement patches in the game, I've downloaded latest version of TortoiseSVN and SetupBuild OTTD but I have problems with some errors. Please if this is still possible, tell me (guy that isn't a programmist at all) how to install these patches into the game. I have got 18 trunk*.*.patch files and don't know at all what to do with them. Any help will be very grateful. Thanks

No need to mess with patches, use this: https://github.com/JGRennison/OpenTTD-p ... rpp-0.38.1

JGR's Patch Pack includes tons of working patches, including this Chunnel patch!

EDIT: Whoops, ninja'd!
