![]() Evaluate situation of your routes using button Maps -> (choose) Cargo Flow Transparency - It is in the button bar of course, but CTRL+x is faster. However, initially use only path signals, These signals do everything you need for the trains. Once the direction of the train is assigned, use the blocking signal for a more logical and aesthetic aspect. Use only modern "path signal" and in settings, configure to swap those only. Place rail as usual, keep CTRL pressed to remove. ![]() After coal, try the other production chains to get more money. Ensure there are some coal mines, and bring to power plant(s). Playing sandbox ignore subsidies proposal, initially. High Res: in general, you can search all the NewGRF with high res., writing " 32b" in the filter. Note that the suggested (in the wiki) "Generic Tramset 0.4" is low res, may be you want try the high res "CZTR Tram Set" 32bpp. They are very nice and tracks can be built on grass. If you want to try trams in your cities, take care to enable a set before start the map. Generate map until cities are equally distributed on the map Start playing temperate maps that don't have special needs Practice with flat map 128x128, low/normal number of cities and normal number of industries Preset Groups, NewGRFs and parameters are saved in the file openttd.cfg, but moving from cache to active list they are added in "reset" status. Very useful: you can create preset (groups) of NewGRFsĪnyhow, before start a new map, double check parameters of the NewGRFs, to ensure they have not changed for some reasons. To remove the newGRFs that you don't need, disable them from the active list in the newGRF interface, exit the game, with your file manager navigate into the "content_download" folder and delete those you don't need anymore. Ensure to enable the list of newGRF you intend to use, and their settings, before start a new map. If you want add a newGRF in a running scenario (means: map already in progress), it is possible to force a newGRF to a current game enabling the "Developer mode", however there is very high risk of game corruption and crash, therefore, not recommended at all. General rule: the AddOns officially known as "newGRF", have to be added (and configured the settings if available) before start a new map. Make sure you have read the WIKI NewGRF as already suggested before. ![]() *but* begin playing sandbox, alone, to become familiar with gameplay. SuperSimple AI, Simple AI (+settings), AIAI, many others (CPU competitors) This NewGRF help you to avoid these nasty surprises. While this kind of "mechanic" is part of the game (considered annoying by many players, though), you will probably want to play a more stable map, only allowing for the creation of new industries. In regular game, they may change production type, or in some conditions they may announce closure and disappear, leaving your newly designed track in front of an empty brown rectangle. Industries ( complex topic for now) can give some problems: Other Settings that can be changed before start a new map: Duration of error messages: (increase if 2 seconds is too low) Cities build roads: NO (you manually have to add and fix broken roads firstly),Īnd this way you have better control on the city growth. Pause: do all (you probably will sometimes stop game and build in relax) (means: if you have already maps in progress you have to change these settings again). To ensure the below are always set "from now on", configure them before start a new map NOTE: some are global, some affect only new games, so check tip at bottom to know which. So change parameter of BigGUI and then APPLY CHANGESĬhange the graphic set in the main settingsĪfter Tutorial: Settings (enable view mode to see ALL settings) To be frank still not clear to me what this button is exactly for.Ĭhanging of NewGRFs work anyway, I guess that could have to do mostly with changing the parameters of the used NewGRFs. In the upper frame you should see only the one in the white rectangle: Move BigGUI from the bottom cache list to the top active list Let's include also BigGUI, a nice button bar set Select the scenario tutorial (double click) Select a graphic set like aBase (double click) - it's personal choice, there are others You can keep original values in the cfg file, just ensure the latest are above the others. I suggest this from command prompt that is very simple and fast: No matter if you use native OS file browser and its search or a powerful MultiCommander , search config file "openttd.cfg", usually in $user/documents/openttd If you see the fonts too small, let's make them more readable, so,
