Whilst being a longterm TTDP-player, I personally have to say that this huge effort by Cirdan, with assist from Supercheese, TrueSatan and Wallyweb, (in terms of distributing Cirdans work compiled in a win32 binary package), is simply wonderful.
It has to be said, a Transport Tycoon community fully dependable on the unilateral work of "official" OTTD devs would have died out ages ago. In fact, it's thanks to community members such as Cirdan that keeps this game well alive and further developed, and for which most of us are very very grateful...
Cirdan's work has resulted in me taking the step to move over from TTDP and try out OTTD, especially and in particular due to his work with Custom Bridgeheads, something which - for anyone of you who have seen my TTDLX-cities - is essential for me indeed. And as mentioned in Wallyweb's information the following features has been added to OTTD;
- Custom Bridgeheads, (CBH)
- Signals in Tunnels
- Signals on Bridgeheads
- Multiple Docks per station
So, what else could be asked for? Well, as a player that uses lots of road vehicles, both buses and trucks, I highly depend on WayPoints for everything to run smoothly and efficient. If anything I would like to see more than one possible WayPoint to use that doesn't appear as a busstop or a truckstop in the middle of nowhere...
What else... hmm...
