https://www.openttd.org/news/2026/01/01/openttd-15-0
>>
>>2313409
is anything new?
>>
I simply can't play this childish simulation compared to the adult focused a-train games.

What is the best A Train game?

>>2313809

Going to attempt to highjack this thread to talk about Transport fever 2. I feel like the map sizes are underwhelming.
>>
>>2314223
i've played openttd but not tf2 so i have nothing to add whatsoever about your take on the map sizes

>Companies in multiplayer no longer have passwords, invite specific players using buttons in the Online Players list instead
>Island maps can be surrounded by infinite water instead of void
>Rivers can end in wetlands if unable to reach sea
>Bridges can be placed over stations and road stops
>Roads can now have waypoints
>Houses can be placed manually
>Industries and towns have graphs of their cargo history
>Improvements to menus, including a new main menu and a combined game options and settings window
>Many more features, changes, and fixes

Houses being placed manually sounds like it could be used to make a Soviet Republic mod.
There's so much foundation here to turn OpenTTD into a city builder.


>>2314223
They are, but that's what TT3 will fix.

sounds op

Why does the campaign suck so much compared to the first game?
>Objective 1: connect A and B
>Objective 2 (unknown at the beginning): connect A to C in a way that forces you to rip up the existing route to B
Also worse music. I really can't think of many advantages over TF1.
>>
>>2313895
Tourism if you are new to the series or 9 with the latest update if you want a challenge.
>>
>>2313943
good
>>
>>2314426
I can role-play as a SimCity player while playing OpenTTD now! Unfortunately, it is not possible to construct buildings outside the scenario editor tho.
>>
>>2315116
you can if you enable the advanced setting for it
Environment -> Towns -> Placing Individual Town Houses
>>
you know, I loved the old TTD music so much, I haven't played as much OpenTTD but has anyone really attempted to make some sort of downloadable mod with good music, last time I checked the music wasn't all that good anyway.
>>
>>2315116
it would be way op
>>
So ECS is dead, right? It's just FIRS and its offshoots now?
>>
>>2314324
>infinite water
usecase?
>wetlands
cool
>house painter
no worse than founding industries i guess
time to play some trains i guess
>>
>>2314324
i would love to see a city builder spin off from openttd
it already has a leg up as far as im concerned because it doesnt use the awful americanised "zoning" concept

Is it up to date? My train station ratings are very low. Just let a train there all the time and another on at high speed?
>>
>>2325620
>Is it up to date?
m8 the game rules are 30 years old
>>
>>2325627
Isn't there anything new? I stopped playing more than 10 years ago.
>>
>>2325646
Base oTTD is fairly conservative when it comes to game mechanics. You can get a lot of alternate rulesets as mods, but I don't know of anything that fiddles with station ratings. I think the fact that freight trains end up going as as as passenger ones because of game mechanics and should probably care more about throughput than speed in some cases, it's a relatively minor thing.
The thing station rating does is give you a bigger share of goods so it's sort of self regulating anyway. Add trains as needed to transport everything and you will get more of it, that's all.
>>
>>2325620
station rating is silly and one of the more important factors is train engine age
>>
>>2314223
I feel the simulation is utterly broken and the UX is lacking to say the least.
>>
>Master Hellish is still making videos
I admire his autism.
>>
>>2315116
Just play A-Train at that point.
>>
>>2313409
What are some good newgrf's to use when you want to have and earlier start date?
>>
>>2332296
as far as i can tell they're all bad
>>
>>2327431
His channel is only 12¿? Feels like hes been around longer than that...
