Like the subject line, here's what I saw as per png image, it had about 40+ attempts above it to re-connect too.

He hasn't asked me to write this, I just thought; I've been in this situation before too, so I wondered if n-ice would be nice

if it helps the s8 game finished: 2019-04-30 19:36:27

Complaints / server 6 problematic players

« Last post by jayjayek on April 17, 2019, 02:34:09 pm »

Hi there,

I noticed that for last few weeks there was an increase of players on S6 whose main aim is to disturb other players rather than expanding their own towns. (usually they don't even build HQs)

As their methods are usually similar I was wondering if it's the same person, or somebody just created a bot or something?

Can something be done about it?

Testserver x2 - Temperate 50k Random Cargo Goal / Re: regarding the goal

« Last post by Chucky on March 28, 2019, 05:20:55 pm »

Hi Stu,

currently the server is running by game script with an equal amount of items because this comes by the main setting for program of server called xShunter. Means: A game script controls the current game (with randomize cargos) and the program of server is watching the progress of goal. I´ll check for a solution soon.

Testserver x2 - Temperate 50k Random Cargo Goal / Re: regarding the goal

« Last post by Stu on March 26, 2019, 08:30:32 pm »

Was playing this recently and agree with Lorne's comments (I know they are quite old but they still stand).

I think the main issue is not so much the cargo type but perhaps the amount.
50K goods is far easier to achieve than 50K steel as you can generate goods from far more sources.

Is there a way of changing the target amount depending on what the cargo is?

So 50K goods or 25K steel would be a good start. Not played with other cargo so can't estimate these.
They could be dialled in over time but you'd want a game to be around the same length.

Complaints / Paxuhakich: Abusive player

« Last post by Kyrre on March 25, 2019, 02:02:25 pm »

Hi, I was just spectating the ongoing fued between two players (red and yellow)who seemed to believe that occupation of their town was for their exclusive use, therefore when a 3rd player placed an airport in a town they were using they, simply declared that was not allowed and systematically starved the airports that purple had made (using both bulldozer and then multiple bus stops very close to airport).  I'd made several attempts to diffuse the situation, but red took it upon himself to exculate the abuse, so therefore as a member i'd like to limit red's ability to harass others.

n-ice Client / Issues with patching

« Last post by BenTrein on March 23, 2019, 10:12:14 am »

On a Linux Mint machine, I'm trying to patch using the official wiki guide (https://wiki.openttd.org/Compiling_on_(GNU/)Linux_and_*BSD).

When I download the source code from GitHub, I run into the following problem:

Code: [Select]

$ patch -p0 < nice.diff
(Stripping trailing CRs from patch; use --binary to disable.)
can't find file to patch at input line 5
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|Index: projects/generate_vs100.vcxproj
|===================================================================
|--- projects/generate_vs100.vcxproj (revision 28002)
|+++ projects/generate_vs100.vcxproj (working copy)
--------------------------
File to patch:
When I download the source code from the website, patching is succesful as are configure and make. However, when I try to connect to the n-ice servers I get the attached image as error message. If you don't speak Dutch, it says 'this revision does not match the server's revision'.
