Thank you for the heads up.
Certainly a contender to OpenTTD I think.

Looks interesting. Hope it is good - all city builder games released since Sim City 4 have come nowhere close.
no problems here
just trying to figure out how to complete a bus route
looks very clean and swish

that's the easy bit I couldn't link my metro track up though got frustrated and quit

place 2 stations first, then connect 1 end to the other lol
I must say this is very well presented and the menus are easy to navigate and use. It runs perfectly as well.
Thanks for the link. I had heard of the game before but never really put in the effort to google it properly. Just played the tutorial and seems rather well made and what's very important after Cities XL, this one runs at solid 60fps at full graphics. Just a very smooth and solid gaming experience.

Enjoying it for the moment. But I see it getting quickly boring.
Is there any way I can add vehicles/trams etc. to an existing route but have it start at a different station? As it is when I add more capacity I have to manually wait until my first vehicle is half way round it's route then quickly add a new one.
Also when you add it it doesn't start at that station, it doesn't pickup any passengers until it gets to the next stop.
There needs to be a priority mode for tracks/vehicles
There needs to be a separate building option for tram tracks, a turn table etc. granted you can manually make a loop but it tends to eat up space.
I wish we had yards for buses/trams/metro etc.
And there needs to be a way to schedule buses etc. at the moment I start off with a fairly efficient layout, and short wait times due to spread out vehicles, leave it a while and eventually all your vehicles get buynched up due to traffic jams and the like.

Can you make bus lanes?
Soldato
Not in the Beta at least. Seems like a good basis, but hopefully we'll get many more options. Open TTD is much better in terms of customisation, Sim City is more in depth and Railroad Tycoon is better for laying out large scale rail networks
Soldato
Well at least they have the foundation now and it is only Beta. They'll be able to add more, have they released mod tools? Or keeping it Developer only?
Soldato
I can't see any mod tools but I believe there will be a map editor, as for user mods someones managed to extract the assets from the files the game uses so I imagine there will be support official or unofficial on release.
Will be interesting to see how it develops.
