How to demolish stadiums on Multiplayer

[doxlulzem]

I was building this mainline, and now I want to expand it as there is another coal mine for my Power Plant nearby, but out of reach. I want as straight line as possible and I can achieve that by demolishing through the town but there's this ONE stadium that I can't demolish. I know I could save, go on singleplayer and demolish it with the magic bulldozer but I can't be bothered. What does the rating need to be to do such a thing?

Somewhere between Mediocre & Good, if I am reading the wiki correctly, see http://wiki.openttd.org/Game_mechanics# ... ity_rating and http://wiki.openttd.org/Local_authority
First link deals with specifics, the latter more broadly, and how to increase rating in a hurry, bribes or trees. Some consider the tree method cheating though.

300 for a stadium (it ties with the shopping centre as the most expensive default building to remove).

You could always tunnel underneath it and keep your straight line.

Placing the rail 1 tile aside does not look like a problem.

Quoted for an Einstein-Answer

i believe that several tiles away, the straight begins, and that he doesn't want to change the whole configuration best is still:

A) improve rating (by delivering sth to the city or placing trees etc.) -> demolish
B) wait until the city changes buildings ^^

I just do a small diversion around the stadium (or whatever obstruction I have) and then wait for the obstruction to disappear. At least that allows the route to operate. It helps to keep a window on the obstruction so you can better spot when it becomes clear.

Usually it's an industry blocking my nice straight run and I don't like using the magic bulldozer on such problems.

I never understood why only tree-planting improves your rating, but making roads or funding local road reconstruction does not. Asphalt roads are not exactly cheap, in real life terms.

But placing trees means goodwill for a company, while placing roads means angry citizens.

picking up or delivering cargo also improves your rating. if you have a large inner-city network, you don't need the tree "cheat" at all.
