Thankyou for that eloquent and well-researched argument.

For eloquentness and well-research-nessnessness read my upper post, if you choose to.

I did. There is absolutely no connection between your post and mine. What exactly were you saying "No" to?

With the current code, oil wells never increase.

They do if you're using my industry grf. Which is what we were talking about.

Oh - well that's great.

But seriously - the code as such is really lacking - the steady option should enable oil wells' increases...

I don't see why this would need another patch - you can already have increasing production for oil wells by using some hundred-byte GRF and the newindustries switch. (I can write that GRF for you if you like; it's only an action 8 and an action 0.)

That is nice, but the aforementioned bug has to be fixed in any event, at least in OTTD.

1) Decreasing production of oil wells isn't a bug, it's the intended behavior, preserved from unpatched TTD. If you want to change it, that's a feature request and not a bug report.

2) Do you realize this is the General TTDPatch forum? OpenTTD devs probably won't find your bug reports/feature requests here

Yes, yes, I realise it's the TTDPatch Forum. =)

Now - TTD behaviour was that if economy "Steady", Oil Wells too would increase, no?

No, temperate oil wells can't increase production no matter what your difficulty settings are. I believe Patchman has already said this in the second post...

I see - well - pitty anyway...

my oil rigs never produce more than 1200 litres!

yet dad who has the same config and everything, has 567,000 litres of oil from 5 oil rigs next to each other!?!?!!?

OpenTTD or TTDPatch?
(Which terrain?)

Oil rigs are regular industries, unlike oil wells. They randomly increase or decrease production as any other primary industry. If you transport 70% or more of their monthly production, it's marginally more likely to increase than decrease.

SirkoZ · Post by **SirkoZ** » 01 Aug 2006 20:42

Isn't it if you transport over 60%, the chance for increase doubles?

Patchman · Post by **Patchman** » 01 Aug 2006 20:54

I'd have to look at the code again, you may be right. Of course, an industry grf can change that too...
