Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe Options

[That Commander]

Hello, I am posting this in case you did not know: as of December 2009, the OpenTTD developer community have completely replaced the graphics and sound, meaning the game is now completely free to use without requiring a TTD license.

I remember this game used to be run as a comp, but I never joined in since it required the game files from the original TTD.

I would be interested in a multiplayer match (does not have to be a comp).

Cheers

I wonder if multiplayer would handle 2000 trucks?

Also last i heard Connex was an actual company too

Connex is an actual company, but no longer the operator in Melbourne.

...although my signalling systems with trains were well... at a Melbourne trains authority level...

Jeffy, have a look here for information on signals. Get to know Path Signalling in particular.

One of the most common mistakes I see is placing two-way signals on single line track, or on bi-directional double track where there are not crossovers. You can only place signals at crossing loops, crossovers, or at station entrances, otherwise you will end up two trains entering the same section of track and getting stuck.

Having said that, it is usually always better to build double track, with each track restricted to a particular direction - much easier to signal. Build single line only if you need to get a service up quick and expect to only run 1 or 2 trains until output increases, or are strapped for cash, or you are the Victorian Government
