#openttdcoop

Hello everybody,
we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Enjoy your holidays and of course we hope all the wishes you have will be fulfilled.


I am really looking forward to the new year. A lot of interesting events and games are waiting for us.

• The first #osqc will start at 1st January of 2008.
• In the middle/end of January 2008 another World Wide OpenTTD Game Day is planned
• More Public-Server Games
• An empty ToDo-List

Update:
Due to request our servers will be closed down on 24th and 25th December! You should spend the time with your families. This’ll force you a bit.

Update 2:
The servers are online again. Enjoy gaming.

Cheers Coopers

Due to requests I created this tutorial showing you how to do it and what you should care of. In my opinion the canals are more decent than a bunch of bridges. They also remind me of Sylt.

Today the Public Server was updated to the latest Nightly r11601. As well we had to fix several problems with the current game.

• Cities didn’t accept food
• Factories didn’t accept Steel, Plastic & Paper
• You couldn’t build industries -> desync

Those problems where fixed. The only town which accepts food is Lenthwaite (there is also the Food Drop). I don’t want to go in details too much. Enjoy the game again. 🙂

Hello Community,
after some talks and thoughts I want to present you a little teaser for a new upcoming event: The #openttdcoop Scenario Quest & Competition (osqc). I know we all like to play multiplayer games and the Public-Server is a nice place to meet, talk, play and learn. The osqc is a little bit different, it is all about your creativity and playing skills. I created a scenario with a lot of difficulties and quests to solve. The mode of this brand new idea must be developed first. I have several things in mind:
