Me and a friend use to play with FIRS industry set and renewed city growth or city growth, and i think we did a game some time ago with village growth aswell as that was the newest. But now there seems to be problems with them and none are working.

We have got a "renewed village growth" running but it feels like the cities are growing way too slow, for example in the beginning i started with the smallest town of 120 people and it has a hotel so the passenger metric is like 400/4, but the lowest growth it has had is 170 days. And this is after i doubled the growthrate in the script settings.

I tried alot of scripts together with latest version 5 of FIRS but no other than this script seems to be working correctly.

Is there just no "correct" working scripts for the latest 14.0 update? I'm thinking that this patch was a total rework of the whole time-system of the game and might screw up how stuff is calculated and that is why the towns are growing so slow, and they are constantly complaining that they don't have enough passengers and post transported, even if passenger and post is like 700/14, but i think it is the vanilla growth metric, but it seems to interfere with the growth script.

How are your setups? Recomendations? Perhaps revert back to an older version and let scripts and stuff catch up? Or has it been like this for a while? It was like 3 years ago we played last time.

I've been playing for a while on version 1.10.3 of OpenTTD and decided to update it to the latest one (14 something I believe). I noticed something seemed a bit off - all the vehicles seemed to move faster than usually, so I did some experimenting and turns out they were indeed about 10% faster. Not just the vehicles, but the game in general - days were also appropriately shorter and matched the new speed (as in, the train would arrive on the same date even though it moved faster). So I'm wondering: have you noticed anything like that yourself at some point? Which update could it be and why?

Hey, does anyone have the original PC version of Transport Tycoon Deluxe on CD? If so, could you check if there are any audio tracks included? I know the PS version has them, but all the PC rips available for download are in ISO format and don't seem to include the audio tracks.

Is it possible to play OpenTTD with different NewGRFs on different maps? For example, I could use NewGRF ABD on map 1, but play on map 2 without NewGRF ABD.

Sorry in advanced for the silly question. Is there a way to hike up the price of airplanes and the costs of operating an airline?

Bonus question: I think there used to be a feature where one could buy shares in other companies. How amd where can I get this feature please?

Do you play with 8bpp or 32bpp sets for your newgrfs? Just curious what people are mostly using nowadays. I see many YouTube shorts in 32, but discussions here regarding 8.

Hi All

Very new to the game, I want to be able to upgrade my airports but for the life of me I can't get it to work.

I have been googling this for ages now.

Google research says to:

1. Close airport
2. Delete the existing airport
3. Ctrl+Click the new airport
4. Link to old airport station name
5. Profit

But this doesnt work, when I CTRL+Click the new airport, I can't link it to the old airport name at all.

Heres a pic: https://imgur.com/a/1OBfOPB

I need to delete the part labelled 1 in RED

I also have linked bus stations labelled as 2 in BLACK

Can anyone help me, and pretend that I'm five so I understand haha.

Just like the title says: a train has a waypoint on its order list, it goes through the waypoint completely, but it doesn’t trigger on the order list as complete. So the poor train tries to do a giant loop-de-loop to try and hit the waypoint again so it triggers. This is obviously not ideal, and I’m wondering what triggers the bug, and how to fix it.

Hey, I'm not super deep into the game, but when playing in a temperate climate, the game keeps saying that various cargo stations now accept food.... Only, I don't have any industries producing food. I see that Food Processing Plants are available in other climates, and.. seeing as I just generally like building without limitations, I was wondering if there was a way to unlock all industries for any climate?

Let me know, it'd be much appreciated - esp. cause I also don't know how to accommodate the request for food when I can't produce it... - or is it just from the farms? (It doesn't specify 'food' from farms though..)

Thanks in advance!

Why can't we just set how many % to unload a train, when unloading.

I am using FIRS and want to be able to get a full trainload of engineering supplies (say 240 cargo) deliver to separate mines 80 cargo each so that i can Gung-ho the mines.

Conditional jumps cant help me out, the train will unload all when at the station.
Only way i can think of is by using a separate engineering supplies drop-off station (outside catchment) from where i can ship 80 in a small train or by trucks (last mile) and deliver it to the mines.
the remaining 160 i need to pick up again and carry on to the next mine.
This solution is ridiculous, so setting an unload or load percentage straight away in the orders would make life much easier, so that one long train can do the job.

Any ideas?

My rail network is roughly 5100x2300 tiles on an 8192x16384 map. I'm thinking about planning future airline services, but I've been debating where to put the airports not serving a city. I thought that 700 tiles would be a good measure for short-hop flights, with variation depending on the population. Would this be a good framework?

Title.Thank you.

I had Transport Tycoon for my first PC! I guess in the 90s? I can't believe it's been alive out there all this time with this massive community!

I have also learned very quickly that I have no clue how to truly play this game. I joined a multiplayer and almost lost my mind. I feel like I've got 30 years of skills to learn! 😭

See you online! I'm usually Jones Corp.

This is mainly for new players but some other people might not know it but if you get bored playing normally go to settings and search for "distribution mode for passengers" and change that setting. I prefer symmetric personally and try playing with that.

Title says it all. I want to enable two-way signals, but these are disabled when using JGRPP's Realistic braking model feature. Is there any way to go around it an enable two-way signals anyway?

I must say I haven't played OpenTTD for about 7 years by now. Started to play TTD on PC long, long time ago. Then I played OpenTTD on WINMobile, and it was still many years ago. Last time I played OpenTTD, it was early Android phone, and again... many years ago :) Now I stumbled into this community and strong nostalgy.

In my past I liked to play long, very long games on extra large maps with as many add-ons extending the timeframe of the game as I could find. If I remember correctly, there was option to start with sailships and horse carriages in about 17th century and finish (cease tech evolution) by maybe 23-24th century, with super-expensive nextgen maglev roads (don't remember how it called... hyperloop?) that was faster than hypersound jets.

The question is, what are the current version reasonable points to start and finish the _long_ game? I mean, if I'd like to experience as many historical periods as possible, without century-long 'when they finally invent something' timelapses at the beginning, and wish to see more or less verisimilar progress (not StarWars or UFO style) at the end... What are the years the current version may offer to keep the gameplay fun? (I don't mind to use add-ons as well).

Bonjour,

je cherche un serveur pour jouer en ligne avec certains d'entre vous ? il y a des gens connectés ?

Do you build bridges over railroad crossings or are you mentally ill?

Hi there! I'm planning to create an OpenTTD server. It will feature a giant map (4k x 4k) and start in the 1700s. The server will reset every month. I need recommendations for NewGRFs that bring more life to the server, such as those that add infrastructures, industries, vehicles, etc.

Hi there!

Is there a way to prevent the city council from removing buildings, or perhaps a way to make them "historic" or turn them into Generic Objects?

I’ve learned how to manually place buildings (thanks to EmperorJake—I’ve attached the link). However, over time, the city replaces the buildings I’ve placed manually. I’m planning to create a sort of "eye-candy" city, but the skyscrapers keep getting replaced.

As you can see on the red-mark, these are the original buildings I placed. (the buildings on right side are Generic Objects)

OpenTTD screenshot

Over time, as the city grows, they’re replaced—just like in the yellow-mark below. (The picture may show small changes now, but as time goes on, the buildings will look completely different.)

I hope there’s a NewGRF that can help me with this. Thanks!
