Because of this thread i decided to revive my old game
and heres a pic of it


And i just remember what I was doing on this 1024x1024 map

Making a grand line that spans from north to south railway track

Holeee crap. Thats one super long railway.

Wanted to make from one end to the other end of the map
Buts its 1024x1024 and its kinda big

In the end forgotten about it and was long lost in my steam list lol
Just remembered by looking at this thread

Too bad it's near impossible to do in the 512x512 temperate game im playing. Too many hills @@ and damn farms.

With money everything is possible

Which server are you guys in ? i cant seems to find the malaysia map that u r talking abt...

Building through farms aren't as bad as building through trees, which will anger the authority.

And mountains/hills are part of the game's challenge Go through, around, or under, but never(or at least try not to) mass-terraform.

@ James: There is no local server, one of us will have to host one.

Multiplayer Gaming Proposal

Cooperative-Competitive
2 players per company, with up to 4 companies competing
512x512 or 1024x1024 maps
Random Standard Scenario(setting)
Some NewGRFs

whos with me is very unlucky guy.. i just cant seem to understand yet..

^ Hehe, the OpenTTD wiki should help you out a lot.

I'd suggest upgrade to dual-tracks (aka highways) for your trains to use, so that many trains can run on it(you can see the above example from Bobo, but it's very small/can't zoom in).

Then I'd suggest to learn how to build station layouts. I highly suggest a terminus. One way in, and another way out. This is the most basic end of line station layout for dual tracks. Be sure to use signals to help point your train to the right track.

Other station layouts include RoRo's (Roll on, Roll off). Basically it's come IN from one way, and OUT from another.

An advanced RoRo station will have more tracks, and more signals to help redirect trains according. See this one for example. It's a 12 station RoRo

I assume you know how to get your trains/buses/planes/ships moving right?

Added on October 7, 2008, 4:16 pmOh yeah, one more important thing to go with your main lines(highways in TTD talk).

JUNCTIONS.

These are used to extend, or connect other station to your mainlines. Slowly browse through the junction list, and try building one Soon you'll be creating your own rail designs, and people may copy it

For those interested in the upcoming multiplayer game session, please update your OpenTTD games to the latest stable version 0.6.3. I know some of you are using old ones, I'm still using 0.6.2, so let's update to the latest.

I'm guessing we can have a game on this weekend, either Saturday or Sunday night.
