We have very short games, too

This game was logged for posterity by the ever-vigilant autopilot.  Gives an insight into the way that collaboration begins on the sandbox even before the first route begins to be planned.

UK Renewal Set for TTDP

UK Renewal Set for TTDP

Standard 5, I think

Pikkabird has released version 3 of the UKRS, which works fine with OpenTTD. It’s very, very good. That is all.

Tropic Refurbishment Set

I wanted to play tropic again today, and what is better than playing tropic again after a long time? Playing tropic with a train set ofcourse! I choose the Tropic Refurbishment Set for this :). After some minutes of convincing Mucht and Osai (thanks thumb-screws) we decided to load it into the servers. You can download the set from here. And ofcourse you need a new [newgrf] section in your configure file:
[newgrf]
planesetw_459.grf
dbsetxlw.grf
troprs_w.grf
alpinew.grf
pb_hovs_bus.grf
pb_viaduct.grf
basic_platformsw.grf
harbourw_456.grf
jcindstaw.grf
newstatsw.grf
pgs-counw.grf
pgs-freiw.grf
pgs-silvw.grf
pgs-subuw.grf
ukwaypointsw.grf

Have fun playing!

The first month of happy bloggings

I know how you feel about it – we all fell in love with this blog. One month passed by since we relaunched it. Now it’s time to make a quick review.

As you may have noticed, we switched from 2-columns to 3-columns today. This should ease up the overview and navigation. The whole style should be perfectly integrated with the wiki by now. Great work has been done by Osai.

Some statistics:
By now, we almost reached some 20.000 hits with more than 6500 users. During the past days it has shown that over 300 users visit our blog day by day – we never expected this blog to become that successful! Most referrences come from – make a guess – the tt-forums, of course. The browser statistics show some 8.200 hits with Firefox, followed by some 1900 Internet Explorer 6-hits and some 1850 hits by Apple’s Safari Browser.

One month of existence is a great point to thank all of those people involved: first of all, Brianetta, our host. Second, Osai, for his php-skills and administration abilities. Third, all of the bloggers, like Jinx, XeryusTC and JohnK. Last but not least we want to thank our visitors for their interest in #openttdcoop, Coopetition and OTTD!

Ammler got knighted

Today we had the a very special event, I got the chance to knight Ammler. After the knighting there was a great celebration with a lot of pork and beer ;). Ammler now has the right to kick your ass in the channel, or for all you nerds out there: to use the kick command ;), so beware!

Congratulations Ammler and we hope you will have alot of fun on the mainserver.
