Service announcment:

If you have been playing older versions of YAPP or any of the patchpacks with integrated YAPP, you should delete your openttd.cfg because there might be stale patch settings that have changed since then.

This especially concerns the setting pf.yapf.rail_pbs_station_penalty, which now has a default of 800, a value that was once uppon a time different.

Wow, what a great addition to OpenTTD! Congratulations, MichiCC, and thanks to Rubidium!

How about making an announcement in the General OpenTTD? Many players will probably not look in the Development Forum, but might want to play with YAPP urgently

And i guess we have a point for the 0.7 roadmap

Is it true?

Is it in nightly's today?

If so woohoo!

I still have the gonzal patch version, which is full of bugs, but it been a while so im guessing it must be pefect if its in trunk!


You guys make every TTD gamer's dreams come true!

congratz michi

hope you'll keep inproving and fixing it if necessary

Nice job Michi_cc! Thanks a lot for another great addition to this game.

<3 ^^, finnly this patch is in trunk, im been w8ing some time for it

anyway im away to play now xD,

good job Michi_cc,

A real masterpiece has just entered into the trunk? This PBS must be very stable to get in:), also this YAPP better than the previsious PBS implemention by hackykid Ill try it soon with the recent nightly... Keep up very good work:)

The latest nightly build which now includes YAPP can be downloaded here:

http://www.openttd.org/nightly.php

This is probably the most a single nightly has ever been downloaded

Good work guys, 'tis a great patch kudos to you all.

Thank you so much for this patch. PBS was the only thing I missed in OTTD, and now it's finally there!

Congratz michi_cc and thank you for your work.

Something strange in trunked YAPP:
I have 'Cycle through signal types' set to 'Advanced only' yet I start always with a two way normal signal.
It wasn't so in the previous YAPP version I have.

Is this intentional?

yapp is in trunk? wow, great news!
congratulations michi_cc!

Check 'Signal type to build by default' directly above.

Lol.
Totaly forgot about that one...
Perils of using common config file for too long

I go away for a few days and when I come back YAPP is in trunk!? Woooo!!!

I found a bug in YAPP.

Effect:
Stale reservation; track is never used.

To replicate:

1. * Allow a train to reserve a length of track.
   * Build a one-way advanced signal on the reserved track, facing away from the train.
   * The train will stop at the signal, and turn around. A new path is reserved in the opposite direction. The remainder of the existing reservation is not cleared.

If this happens in the game, the only remedy is to manually shepherd a train across the reservation, or to remove and replace all the reserved track.

Congrats mate ^^

I nearly soiled myself when I saw the changelog lol

Trunk! WOW! Congrats michi_cc.

This is a huge milestone for OpenTTD.

Ive had a very similar problem with the gonzal patch months ago!

But this is mainly due to upgrading a network to pbs. When i build with pbs straight away there are far less problems. No trains crashing like mad, which they still do!

But the crashing is mainly due to puting new pbs signals on old routes built for pre-signals. That and the faster they are the less likely they are to pick up a path and not enter a junction or station. I spent more than an hour cleaning up a massive old map of mine, i lost about 18 trains and my profit dipped slightly...

But its all gravy now
