Re: Economy revisit

Although I know little about agent based methods and the game codebase for trading logic, I enjoyed the paper and thank you for sharing it.

image upscaling

Dear all, following impaktor's post on github, I tested a few free-ish image upscalers available online. The results are generally average quality. However one specifically gave reasonable (imho) results, https://bigjpg.com/ , probably because it is trained on non-photographic images. You can see tw...

Marble marcher

I don't know if this post should fall into the games subforum - feel free to move it in case.

Re: Terrain Texturing

Justin stumbled upon this website providing some textures (CC license) for the solar system. Apparently used in some oolite mods.

Re: System names generation - Italian variant

@GunChleoc I'm sorry, I've been a bit busy with work, but I don't get to see how this openttd mod works. Is there some source code to read? I don't have openttd, am I supposed to download it and then install the mod? Or can I download it somewhere/somehow? This looks interesting, so you're saying th...

Re: System names generation - Italian variant

I understand @impaktor 's stance. However, the naming system requires an overhaul. If the dev team feels that the little things we're working on move in the desired direction, it might be worth putting in a little effort to get this into master. I have little experience in the c++ side, but maybe th...

Re: System names generation - Italian variant

Honestly, I kept the French accents and "cedille" ç. If you work with utf8 files there should be no problem, so do as you seem fit (font rendering code aside). Maybe in 1200 years they will reform orthography... or not :)
