In the picture coming from the most respected server for OpenTTD, “Brianetta’s Standard”, a risky business is going on. Flooding always a possibility, a reinforced dam holds back a huge reservoir. Several water pumps draw water off for transport all across the desert, promising mountains of gold for those daring enough to supply the large number of plantations and farms out there.

Changes to OpenTTD distribution on Steam

Posted by orudge

OpenTTD has been available on the Steam Store for the past five years. During that time, we’ve built up an incredible player base, attracting lots of new players to the game. Starting today however, OpenTTD will no longer be directly available as a standalone game on Steam. It can instead be obtained as part of a bundle alongside the original Transport Tycoon Deluxe, which has been re-released by Atari and is now available to purchase via Steam for Windows, Mac, and Linux. You can purchase the bundle here for $9.99.

Please read on for more details on this change.

Third, er, Fourth try’s the charm? You found some bugs that needed fixing before the full release of OpenTTD 15. Let’s do one last (we hope) Release Candidate.

We’ve fixed two crashes related to station windows and signs, a hang related to implicit orders, and have stopped cacti from dying off completely with some tree spread settings.

As always, if you spot any more bugs, please report them here.
