OpenTTD 1.2.0-beta1 + Daylength

[mtwist]

Hello TT friends,

it's been a while since I have been around in these forums. Years ago I played TT plus patch a lot but forgot about this great game. No I discovered the pleasure once more. In the meanwhile I switched to Mac and hence also to OpenTTD which has evolved a lot.

I am using the 1.2.0-beta1 for my games and actually just miss one thing: Daylength modification. Is there a chance to get this release patched with the latest daylength mod for OSX?

What about a "request" topic to place compilation requests for just players?

1.2.0-beta1 + daylength is no longer 1.2.0-beta1. In other words: your request doesn't make sense. What you actually want is a build of the daylength patch against the current trunk revision, which is a fine request to put in one of the daylength patch topics.

Thanks for the hint, I placed my request!

Probably my wording was not the best. What I am looking for is 1.2.0-beta1 extended by a daylength patch only. This is then of course not longer the beta1 but some custom compilation.

Then again:
- Why 1.2.0-beta1? Why that specific version and not some other trunk revision?
- IIRC, there are more than one attempts to create a daylenght patch, so: which one?
- Since we are at it, why not look in that specific thread for the most recent build?

Hi,

I've seen that at the Requested Features page in the wiki the daylength feature is at 50% implementation.

Question.. anyone knows when to expect it built into a coming (beta) version?

[Alberth]

When it is finished and merged into trunk.
(And 50% at the page says nothing w.r.t. speed of reaching that point, iirc 50% it is defined as "there is a patch", nothing more.)
