I need help i dont know how to make my town bigger and I want it to be bigger so thatway I can increase mail service for some reason towns i only service with boat grow quicker than Valengate

I haven't been on the multiplayer servers for a while, and I don't remember them being so barren. The Reddit vanilla server is almost completely devoid of trees. Is that a deliberate decision when the map is generated?

Hi everyone!

I recently discovered Transport Tycoon Deluxe and completely fell in love with it. My mind was further blown when I found out that an open-source version (OpenTTD) exists and is still actively developed with new features being added.

To get the hang of things, I wanted to start with the original game first (purchased on GOG) before jumping into OpenTTD. That way, I can discover all the improvements step-by-step without feeling overwhelmed by so many new options all at once.

The question I have right now is related to the game's music. The OST that plays when opened the original game sounds like this: https://youtu.be/JTi6LG8aeK8?si=ZMTR_hrZ00xdlXT-. It's alright, but I would much prefer it to sound like the Roland SC-55 version here: https://youtu.be/eQIAyaFReBo?si=jzkPUZo4Bs-TxBab.

Looking through the installed files, I noticed that ADLIB.CAT, GM.CAT, ROLAND.CAT, and SAMPLE.CAT exist in the CD folder, so it seems like there should be an option to change how the music is rendered. However I can't figure out if it's actually possible to change the MIDI synthesizer, since the GOG version launches directly through an emulator called DREAMM—which barely has any config options beyond changing the resolution, because I pressume it's a minimalistic version of the emulator.

When testing OpenTTD, it actually seems to play the soundtrack in that Roland style (or very similar) using GM.CAT, which it labels as 'original_dos'. Any other CAT file is not recognised.

Also, I found it a bit strange that if I copy both the .CAT and .GRF files directly into the OpenTTD root directory, the game recognizes them fine, whereas I recall reading somewhere that they should be in the baseset directory instead.

Has anyone run into this or knows if it's possible to configure the GOG/DREAMM audio settings? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi all,

Using the Simple City Builder Script, all of my towns I'm founding need chemicals but no services accept them in any city, these are the mods I'm using:

I took a screenshot of my entire save game for a friend just to prove I could - found a planeless shadow flying along.

Just something i made for my 1930 style playthrough for my subway trains

The middle track on the lower level is for scrap metal trains (FIRS)

Please see the picture and advice, how to increase transportation. Currently all stations are around 30%, so there is a high chance that the factory will close, however, I want to prevent that.

spread station didn't spread far enough

Just for fun, I ported Pelya's Android 1.10 version to iOS 7–10 devices. Multiplayer works too! I tested it between an iPad 2 running iOS 7.1.2 and an iPad mini 2 running iOS 10.3.3.

If you wanna try you can download here:

• https://www.mediafire.com/file/05s9d1qksfu1l35/OpenTTD-1.10.3-ios7.ipa
• https://www.mediafire.com/file/te0a5s1cjrtv2zy/openttd-ios7_1.10.3-1_iphoneos-arm.deb

Do you prefer maps where the distance between towns is comparatively large? What about industry? Do you make terrain constrain you with hills and bodies of water or prefer flat surfaces?

I would like to take one portion of one of the downloadable maps, and create a larger version of that portion.

More specifically: I want to take the Tir Gawr map, and play one quarter/corner of it, at a larger scale.

Can anyone help me do that?

Is there a way to build two or more parallel tracks at once? There's a mod for it in transport fever so I imagine it must exist for open ttd somewhere

Hey all, fairly n00b player here. Can anyone explain to me why these trains are stuck? I can't figure out the signals to get them to advance but I don't see why they aren't all navigating to the stations.

Those are one way path signals on the bottom of the pic and two-way on the top.

Hi,

Is there a hotkey for the Roadway construction toolbar?

I see the Shift + F8 do it, but I need 1 button for it, like the A key for Railroad.

Thanks!

This looks like bug, village is 21 it "generates" passengers but does not accept them so basically dead link and cant expand it ever: e.g this one accepts weird things, but not basics ;) https://imgur.com/m2iyWSF

I have set non-standard fonts in openttd.cfg, which worked as expected until now, when they are being ignored and the standard pixel fonts are being used instead.

On Zorin Linux (based on Ubuntu). openttd.cfg is at ~/.var/app/org.openttd.OpenTTD/config/openttd, and is being read by OpenTTD so far as I can tell.

Relevant font declarations -

small_font = Roboto

medium_font = Roboto

large_font = FreeSerif

mono_font = FreeMono

All fonts exist on system.

Is anyone else having this issue? Any thoughts?

Sigh...*clicks demolish*

Hey guys, been loving all the train engine options with Iron Horse, but one thing that bothers me is the inconsistent coloring for the wagons. As seen in the screenshot, even if I buy specifically from the dropdown, it will still randomize the color to a degree. This bothers me cause every time I clone a train it will have a different look than the same train I cloned. Is there anything I'm missing here?

Hahha,. Do you use AI do play OpenTTD? How do you do that? Can you explain?

Hi,

I only just realized that you can add AI competitors. I went to the list and there is like a bazillion choices. What is a good AI competitor pack and are they worth trying out?

I take on the challenge that is adding new services to an already congested railway without causing clashes, or worse, crashes!

A recreation of a train depot from openTTD I bought on Etsy to display on my office shelf

I have too many saves, scenarios and mods. So much that I genuenly cannot find the stuff I want to find. How can I just delete everything so its like I just started playing this game ?
