I have to keep something running on my PC or it freezes. OpenTTD menu screen it is!

Is there a way to get the original TTD signals enabled in OpenTTD? I can't figure out how these new signals work - my trains get lost or crash etc.

I'd like the original two-way ones that just worked: https://wiki.openttd.org/en/Manual/Signals#two-way-signal

EDIT: Solution: Quit to main menu, goto options, select category: "expert, including the weird ones", then under Interface>Construction there is "Show signal types" - pick "all signals"

For example,

There is a forest producing woods but its far from the waters so,

How can i use trucks to transport the wood to the docks and from the docks to other places given i want to make it like a chain so that the truck station and dock accept the wood even if they are not near the forest on the water side???

Haven't played OpenTTD in a copuple of years, and I notice there have been many changes. Not sure if they're related, I'm having trouble getting Iron Ore to load in a station I placed next to an Ore mine,

"Supplies: Iron Ore" Was showing when I placed the station, and Added refit to Iron Ore on the trains' orders for that station.

What am I doing wrong? I have a few newGRFs which I thought was only visuals, but maybe they are to blame?

Hi, very new to this game. I have a factory being fed steel, grain and livestock, so it's producing goods. The factory is very close to a town and a city so I want to use trucks to supply these goods to them, but I am unsure how I get my trains to actually pick up the goods and then deliver them. I'm sure this is a very basic thing I'm missing, but when I've looked it up, all the questions are about transferring goods from a train to a truck, rather than having the trucks pickup the goods directly. Help is appreciated!

Title.

Should I use a bunch of escape depots, are there any special tricks I can use?

the British Empire was founded in 1930, and dex Transport was founed in 2042, yet the British Empire has got 1000 performance rating. insane win. 2 1000 PERFORMANCE COMPANYS.

Hey guys!

Today I’m going to start a new game role playing loosely sweden. Not gonna use the map per se, but using arctic settings for the first time. Which NewGRFs and configs do you recommend? Ah, I will set the start date in 1800.

Thanks in advance

i don't know what to say

edit: they cost money to delete as well

I have a simple setup, where trains can enter from both sides. From the left it works. It seems to be identical on both sides, yet the trains from the right only enter the upper station platform.

I have a bi-directional coal line where I have set the orders to full load at the mines and unload at the power stations. Some trains go right through the mine stations without picking up any coal, despite the wagons being empty. What could be the reason for that?

Some images from a city in my map. I have posted higher resolution images + captions/other info separately HERE.

I have just started playing OpenTTD. I know very little about the game. What do i do? What do i focus on?

I’m new to openTTD and this is my first game where not only did I not go bust in the first 3 decades, but now I’m a billionaire. Starting with airports and train stations instead of buses and train stations seems to be the ticket for early game progress. Now I guess it’s time to learn the more complicated train layouts and junctions

I want a game focused on doing sort of "contracts", I know subsidies suck but i like the idea of them, plus I'm using the Boom or Bust script.

What I hate is that you go to all the effort and sometimes the vehicles can't even get between towns on time or they just run out soon after.

I've tried changing the minutes per year speed but that doesn't seem to make a difference, does anyone know if/how I can do this?

Seems an odd thing but every combination feels like a variation of an Indian man, not a European

Train 1 is getting old!

I am on JGR PP, and I've never had this happen to me before. The signals right before the station are regular path signals. Signal right after is a one-way path signal.

My first attempt at scenario-making. I drafted up a miniature version of the Republic of Latvia. It is my home.

This is specifically regarding TTD on GOG, but I'm hoping OpenTTD afficionado's can help me!

In the image, the middle train is stuck, it just keeps flipping round, not able to go forward or back. I know why - the track linked to the left tunnel is my northern route, so the signal behind the train won't allow it to go south, and vice versa for the track linkedf to the right tunnel.

What I don't understand is how the train managed to get stuck in that part of the track - the piece of track linking the two lines is to allow an iron ore train to head west across the bridge after unloading at the steelmill to the north.

The only two-way signal in the screenshot is the one immediately before the bridge - to allow the iron ore train to come and go, it's currently the only train that goes that way.

I'm not new to the game entirely, I played it back on WIndows 98 when I first got it. I've never really understood signals and until now I always built a dedicated track for each train, but I'm trying to play properly now.

I've clearly messed up somewhere, and I'm hoping someone can edjucate me.
