See screen shot, there is one more cargo off the bottom. (ignore the the undefined strings, this is a bug with another GRF).

posting this here because the original patch thread seems to be dead.
i would love it if there was a setting in the timetable based separation that basically ignores the wait time if the load is 100%.

These are implemented now, they'll be in the next release.

Good work
I'm getting a lot of lag with 35.1. Haven't noticed it this bad with previous releases. Every few minutes the game freezes for a few seconds and seems to get worse the longer I play. I've tried to reduce the calculation times in cargo dist but it hasn't made any difference. Any other ideas?

If you can post a savegame I can take a look.

Here you go...

The problem is caused by the large number of refit orders, especially refit to any available cargo.
This interacts poorly with cargodist, in that it needs to estimate the link capacity for all 64 cargoes.
In particular this involves querying the GRF for the refitted capacity for each cargo for each vehicle at each refit order.
Refreshing the link capacities and checking for stale links generates a large number of such operations, and as GRF operations are very slow, this creates a noticeable pause.

I can probably optimise this a bit, but in general using both cargodist and refit to any available cargo is problematic.

I'm not sure if it is my computer or the latest nightly 804/821 that has the lag , I'm referring to the previous post , when I run a game on 1.10.3 it is ok , your latest and nightly has a lag .

I've reduced the size of the performance impact, it should no longer be problematic.
This will be in the next release.

If you've got a save which shows the issue I can take a look

Is there any other way to do it? If a train is picking up multiple cargos at each station of differing amounts, I can't see any other way of doing it

I don't see another way at the moment. I'll see if there are improvements which can be made.
In the meantime the next release shouldn't be too far away.

Sweet.
Quick question...
If I pick up a unit of cargo from it's station of origin, take it for a ride, then drop it back at it's station of origin, does the cargo payment decay timer reset?

no.

I am having a strange situation with the cargodist, All was well and running nicely and then I added 2 new lines and all the passengers are just for any destination, the link graph shows the routes in white and trains are running but it does not seem to change, I have tried changing various settings and even deleting the trains and starting again. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

This should be fixed in the next release.
For now I'd suggest turning on "Do not scale the linkgraph days by the day length factor" and reducing "Take N days for recalculation of distribution graph".

As a one-off you could open the console and run "merge_link_graph_jobs_asap", then run it again after waiting at least a day. This will update the graph immediately.

Thanks!

Maybe I'm blind but I can't find download link for the latest 0.36 version . Can you give it to me?

Hello JGR,
Here attached is a crash report regarding the most recent version of your patchpack :

Here attached is a crash report regarding the most recent version of your patchpack :Crash report.zip

Thanks for reporting this, I will investigate.
For now I would suggest increasing the size of the sprite_cache_size_px value in your openttd.cfg file.

What is the max value for the given config variable?
I have kept it at 256 for now. It seemed to crash when the value was 128.
