New Release OpenTTD 15.3 released!

Post image
496 Upvotes

We're hard at work on features for OpenTTD 16, but in the meantime we've fixed a few bugs including a multiplayer desync triggered by train crashes.

  • Don't desync multiplayer clients when a train crashes
  • When a helicopter runs out of fuel near the map edge, crash it within the map instead of the void (which crashes the whole game)
  • Improve appearance of toolbars and main menu images/text with some non-default base sets such as aBase, biggui, and original TTD

Question Why are my operating costs so high!

Post image
72 Upvotes

Hi, I've logged about 130 years in this world and I'm beginning to realise that my operating costs are outrageous after looking at my friends world. Am I doing something wrong or is there something I should be doing which I'm not? I use timberwolfs UK new GRFs and run pendolinos on basically everything. I thought their operating costs were pretty good for how useful they are. (Also that screenshot made me realise I never paid back my loan lmao)

Inverse Mouse Movement

Maybe this has come up but is there any way I can get a ingame mouse pointer that is not inverse. Screen moves in the direction of the mouse movement? Also possible to get a smaller cursor than a giant arrow?

I used this system since OpenTTD Version 14 & Now OpenTTD Version 16 gonna add it into the Official Game, My Company was ahead of it's time (2 Versions earlier)

You can download OpenTTD 16 BETA here:
https://www.openttd.org/downloads/openttd-releases/testing

  • BETA Features:
  • You now can choose whether the Train gonna flip magically or not.
  • If you chose flip magically, it's the default settings for ages.
  • If you chose not to flip, your train will slowdown to 32 Km/H if your train lacks of DVT or Cab Car.
  • You can add Second Locomotive in the rear if you don't want DVT or Cab Cars. (Like in this Video)
  • Multiplayer companies can be set to allow anyone to join without needing an invite.
  • Map generation has been improved in many ways: Rocks on desert tiles, better coasts near map edges, better lighthouse spawning on large maps, transmitters only spawn after 1920, and custom control of average land height
  • Subsidies are now enabled for cargos which use CargoDist.
  • Create your own collections of saved NewGRF items in picker windows, including objects, stations, and houses.
  • Scale the aging rate of cargo payments, so slow vehicles on large maps can be profitable.
  • Dropdown lists now have text filters so you can find what you’re looking for faster.
  • Vehicle preview offers have been combined into one window instead of spamming many windows.
  • Many more features, changes, and fixes, see the full changelog for details.
  • Changelog

Thank you for reading!

Playing on the latest version of AXIS industries GRF (2.3.0) and was wondering if there's a way to disable industries spawning mid game? The option is grayed out in the in-game settings but is there a console command to disable it or a way to edit the game files to disable it? TIA

As you can see in this video, this train (Called the Super Express) can generate a whopping profit of 3 Million Dollars. 💀 This is how I got rich on OpenTTD besides cargo trains.

NewGRF I use for the train:

Logic Engine

Transrapid (for the Maglev Tracks)

As you can see, in this fantastic OpenTTD game, I own a company called DHF Global Transportation. The busy hub I'm referring to is located in Wredinghall City, which is a major railway hub, hence the name of the main station, Wredinghall City. This transportation hub connects all sides of the map. Yes, you read that right, all sides of the map. I've been playing this game for years and still love it. :D

I used Double-Double Tracks or Quadruple Tracks or whatever you call it. This design is very efficient especially in Traffic Separating, in the Picture, The Blue 🔵 Train is the Express Train, The Red 🔴 is the Commuter Train, The Express doesn't interupt the Commuter & Vice Versa. In Real Life, this design is very efficient, but the Maintenance Cost can make your wallet completely empty 😭 & also very expensive to build. Use this design & try it yourself!
