+orwell: Seeing that there was not really any opposition to the proposal any more, made a request for someone to step forward and work on the timetable system
 because he has not got the time. Some sign of commitment from gpcf but nobody else.

 gpcf: Master is not expected to be unbroken. Only releases. Adding this branch would not help us but instead overcomplicate the existing workflow.
-ywang, 56independent: would prefer master to be unbroken, but can agree it is not necessary. 56independent said he was running master on his server but could move to stable release.
+ywang: realistically, a dev branch would only be useful for smaller patches. Feature branches are generally stable enough when they are merged, and minor issues in the master branch can be fixed later. The master branch should not be expected to be stable, but it should at least be usable (i.e. without severe bugs).
+independent: would prefer master to be unbroken, but can agree it is not necessary. 56independent said he was running master on his server but could move to stable release.
 Blockhead, gpcf: Server owners should not be running master unless they are prepared to beta test advtrains. Linuxforks is the main public test server.

+Maverick2797 sagt:relative times vs absolute times?
+Maverick2797 sagt:how about a scrollable list that opens up into a closeable tab?
+Maverick2797 sagt:
+https://luk3yx.gitlab.io/minetest-formspec-editor/
+Maverick2797 sagt:this one?
+:25
+Marnack
+Marnack sagt:Yes I've tried that formspec tool.  It's  pretty good.
+:26
+Maverick2797
+Maverick2797 sagt:it doesn't have the scroll_container etc, but it's still good for basic formspecs

+Fellow Jitster sagt:not now

+Maverick2797
+Maverick2797 sagt:I've tried to do a through-coach  system wholly in LuaATC, but it'd be very hard to schedule it imo
+:32
+Marnack
+Marnack sagt:Could the taimetable simply trigger that Lua once it arrives?
+:33
+Maverick2797
+Maverick2797 sagt:event = {type="timetable", timetable=true, timetable_id="id"}
+:34
+Blockhead
+Blockhead sagt:now there's two of them
+:38
+Maverick2797
+Maverick2797 sagt:the trouble is that it's easier to stop a train with the E-Brake when there's lag than it is to slow it normally
+:43
+W3RQ01 - dario23
+W3RQ01 - dario23 sagt:NEW TRACK:
+FUNCTIONS:
+- give infos to stations
+- give infos to train
+- more easy
+- more user-friendly interface
+- track takes infos from train and give them to stations about traffic, delay ecc…
+- make the train find a way to reduce the delay
+- track should be before station/stop rail
+- this track IS connected to the station stop rail like a tcb
+- train does not stop at this track
+- if train hasn’t delay can let pass through
+:44
+Maverick2797
+Maverick2797 sagt:having a way to edit the route after it's been saved would be good to avoid having to completely delete and redo a route if you miss something
+Maverick2797 sagt:setting waypoints for the route
+Maverick2797 sagt:Signal boxes: would that require a custom trackplan texture per signal box though?
+:54
+Y. Wang
+Y. Wang sagt:That could be dynamically generated. MT has a function to render PNG afaik.

+Blockhead sagt:Y. Wang is right I think

+:05
+Y. Wang
+Y. Wang sagt:putting the name in the email body makes it easier to impersonate people though

+Maverick2797 sagt:i generally send patches straight from the command line
+Maverick2797 sagt:account creation vs greater contributor reach and easier patch submission
+:14

+i sagt:Sorry i'm late. I should have set an alarm 0_0
+:16
+Maverick2797
+Maverick2797 sagt:a dev branch could be where branches are merged and beta-tested before being merged into master for release
+Maverick2797 sagt:but making sure that different features play well together should also be important

+i sagt:I personally use bleeding-edge and would like to see it continue being stable.

+i
+i sagt:Should i make a simple english translation which simplifies technical terms and phrases to make it easier for noobs and non-natives?

+Y. Wang
+Y. Wang sagt:No
+Y. Wang sagt:"Simple English" does not have its own language code in MT

+Blockhead
+Blockhead sagt:minetest doesn't support such a translation anyway

+Maverick2797 sagt:i didn't think there was much that wasn't already in "simple english"
+:43
+i
+i sagt:As in Wikipedia SE
+:44
+Marnack
+Marnack sagt:Is there any interest in eliminating AdvTrains' dependency on MT Game (default, dye, etc.)?
+:44
+Y. Wang
+Y. Wang sagt:56i: MT doesn't support that. Also we have a manual
+:44
+Maverick2797
+Maverick2797 sagt:👍
+:44
+i
+i sagt:is it good to have diversity in tutorials? My interlocking tutorial is more regimental then others. Does it inspire fracturing or makes Advtrains easier to learn?
+:46
+Y. Wang
+Y. Wang sagt:56i: I don't oppose that
+:47
+i
+i sagt:I'll make some on LuaATC, ATC, and other aspects
+i sagt:Maybe even development

+Y. Wang sagt:56i: patches are welcome
