I'm a bit tangled with testing out some experimental builds still, but the server is mostly running. Tell me when you guys want a reset. I'm considering switching from ECS to FIRS industry pack.

Whats the difference between the two?
(Also, Fish Bowl is making a megaproject-sized rail system, I'd rather wait until after we have pics of that to reset)

[BigD145]

Don't reset yet.

The Flying Boat Project! Depending on your preferred transportation, either a glorious victory by watercraft over the inability to sail across land, or a tremendously massive waste of money.

[EuchreJack]

I'll go with glorious victory.

[Elephant Parade]

I applaud this.

There seems to be no maglev freight on the current map, which is a bit sad.

[BigD145]

Express fright only. Fish, Food, Gold, Goods. That's it. My freight is moving too slow and I can't make a network that does coal with passengers.
------
I'm done with the map. To expand more and ship freight across the map in a reasonable time requires maglev at least.

Yup. Red lines. Still making 50 or so million a year. Dual one ways clogged more than the junction. Having freight at half speed of commuters doesn't help things. The orange/yellow set is a pass/mail/tour almost from map edge to map edge.

I love how Tel Mora has a ridiculously huge railway junction right net door, but no station...
They must be pretty upset!

Do you guys want a reboot?

Changelog:

Gonna try making things a bit harder again
Shuffling around some GRFs for graphical content
Bringing back freight monolevs
Possibly a 2048² map?
Game is gonna pause if no one is logged in.

256x256 map and more sci-fi vehicles. nothing can go wrong

[Aklyon]

You mean maglev, not monolev. Unless this is some arcane merging of monorail and maglev?

Also, do we really need an even huger map? The current one can cause lag later on just by being zoomed out on. But I'd certainly like more sci-fi vehicles, and possibly some ships that can outspeed sailboats

[Djohaal]

Gotta adjust the "sprite_cache_size_px" (on openTTD.cfg) to 512 to reduce zoomed out lag. I'd also appreciate more sci-fi stuff but I'm having difficulty finding it

We'll be using a custom-patched OTTD build, hopefully this one won't desync.

So, does it work or not?

[Djohaal]

Yup we are up, been playing it for one hour without desyncs.

[bluejello]

however, I am incapable of connecting now.  is it just me or do other people get this issue?
