Discord server? in General

Is there one for Citymania / The users of it?

Just wondering where people meet-up for playing (without having to wait inside a game server for ppl).

If you know some OTTD Discord servers dP. Could you give some invites here to em.

Clarification: The idea is to gather ppl on the same server to see activity and coordinate game on a server.. i.e 3h cb team game.

Just to show im still "active" :) in General

Can i ask whats the big difference of the current GS servers compared to the 3h ones?

Why couldnt the GS become like the 3h ones without a timer? Not possible?

You surely make it sound like GS is very bad for servers, but still not doable to implement the 3h server system on GS without having a time? Or a timer that is very long? Restart ability?

Asking for some knowledge/enlightenment xD

IRC? in General

Where did everybody go? :'(

Edit: Seems i got on the correct server when my isp decided to kick me out. All fine now xD

Bridge trick is a vague statement to keep GS, its also not allowed on btpro so not a good thing to learn to become good at CB. Its a cool trick but not that useful at all. You are allowed to spread here which more than make up for not needing houses further out.

Couldnt gamescript ones be replaced with easier timed ones?

Which would utilize the settings/limitations classic has except with lower RC, higher starting cash, gs grow rate (easy mode). This should even have an own highscore row named easy mode cb scores.

Reasoning being GS mode adds very little to improving skill, the 30k one is ok but still you are able to do stuff not possible on classic, making you somewhat bad on that cb once you know this one, also you arent able to beat your past record on GS which also limits your skill learning and further improvement towards higher scores.

Another idea i had was the possibility to restart easy mode maps with your own set of time, I.E 1h,2h,3h, depending on how much time you have to play, not having to quit mid game to miss out on scoring.

The restart ability is really unique imo, being able to choose the map you want to play whenever you have the time to play, even being able to choose the length of the game makes it worth money :D

About the Quest server i had the idea of spawning some new quests, more of each difficulty. Quest server is also unique to openttd, no one have a similiar great one and should by that be improved even further.

Some 50 cents thrown :) discuss! :D

Features/Modifications to CityMania Client in Suggestions

is it that much work to add shortcut to "drag&drop" button? Just asking.

Features/Modifications to CityMania Client in Suggestions

Ill explain what i would like to be added and a reason for it.

::Hotkeys::

  • "Depot" button for when a vehicle is outside the depot - Reason: Faster gameplay, less mouse clicking.
  • "Location" button, found in various windows.. especially the station/depot/vehicle one im looking for - Reason: Faster localization of target, less mouse clicking, Moving around the map faster.
  • "Drag&Drop" button for toggling, ive noticed u added the station size/drop thing but that requires 2 hotkeys rather than one. - Reason: One hotkey instead of Two. Keep the ones u added and just add this toggle one.

::Modifications::

  • Window popup locations, having the option of default "pin" em at specific places instead of having em randomly appear everywhere on screen. A good example is the Buy Vehicle Window, which id like to have on left side when it pops up, keeping the view clear at center of screen - Reason: Better customization/control over the screens visual.
  • Hotkey modification inside the game and the possibility to reload with those hotkeys without quitting game - Reason: Hassle to exit game and modify hotkeys each time, a nicer view of the hotkey setup instead of using notepad, very unobvious names of some hotkeys which could be renamed in the ingame hotkey modifier with even a explanation tooltip to each hotkey what it does if needed, a more obvious place to change hotkeys instead of going to my documents bla bla (for beginners).
