Version of OpenTTD

9c5a7d3

Expected result

The function IConsoleError behaves exactly the same as using IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "ERROR: %s", string);, but is shorter and more concise.

OpenTTD/src/console.cpp

Lines 168 to 171 in 9c5a7d3

void IConsoleError(const char *string)
{
IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "ERROR: %s", string);
}

Therefore, IConsoleError(string) should in general be used instead of IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "ERROR: %s", string).

Actual result

The following 14 occurrences of IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "ERROR: %s", string) still exist:

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "%s: Not a savegame.", file);
}
} else {
IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "%s: No such file or directory.", file);

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "%s: Failed to delete file", file);
}
} else {
IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "%s: No such file or directory.", file);

default: IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "%s: Not a directory.", file);
}
} else {
IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "%s: No such file or directory.", file);

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "ERROR: Silly boy, you can not %s yourself!", ban ? "ban" : "kick");

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "ERROR: Maximum kick message length is 254 characters. You entered " PRINTF_SIZE " characters.", kick_message_length);

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "ERROR: Maximum kick message length is 254 characters. You entered " PRINTF_SIZE " characters.", kick_message_length);

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "Company does not exist. Company-id must be between 1 and %d.", MAX_COMPANIES);

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "Company %d requires a password to join.", company_id + 1);

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "Company does not exist. Company-id must be between 1 and %d.", MAX_COMPANIES);

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "Company does not exist. Company-id must be between 1 and %d.", MAX_COMPANIES);

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "ERROR: alias is of special type, please see its execution-line: '%s'", alias->cmdline);

Additionally, there are 3 additional occurrences of IConsolePrint(CC_ERROR, "ERROR: %s", string):

IConsolePrint(CC_ERROR, "Tile does not exist");

IConsolePrint(CC_ERROR, "Tile does not exist");

IConsolePrint(CC_ERROR, "Saving map failed");

Steps to reproduce

Look in the source of commands.cpp for the above occurrences.

Have you ever considered making Pull Requests yourself? These kind of things are easy things to start with in a codebase like OpenTTD, and it seems you have a good grasp on what should happen/change?

Possibly also easier for yourself, as making these changes in code would have been faster than writing this ticket :D

Not saying you have to btw, I am perfectly fine with these tickets; I was just wondering :)

PS : not all cases you highlight are "ERROR: " atm. But by the looks, most should be. So it is a two-for-oner :D

Example: IConsolePrint(CC_ERROR, "Saving map failed"); <- currently doesn't contain the word ERROR: :)

IConsolePrintF(CC_ERROR, "%s: Not a savegame.", file); currently cannot be replaced with IConsoleError, as it doesn't use a plain string. I guess we need a IConsoleErrorF instead. Would make sense to me, to have that.

Looking over the list, all instances except for the last 3 are this, and this is also most likely the reason they are not IConsoleError yet. The last three are just silly, so they can be fixed easily :)
