Road Hog

[Digitalfox]

I really like the selection of vehicles on this set

I know it's not the most important thing right now, there's a lot of things you probably want to do before considering this, but more modern/future vehicles please

For example in the year 200* and 201*

[Voyager One]

I don't know if this is a glitch...
Both steam logging trucks (pic 1) seem to be slightly misaligned in some diagonal directions. Same problem for all three livestock trucks (pic 2).

Otherwise - marvelous work Andy!

Legit bug, thanks.

Futuristic vehicles - not ruling them out, but I never play past about 2020 in my games, so low incentive to add them

that trailer on the left looks like it's angled

Alpha 5 is on bananas. It's no longer restricted to nightly version of OpenTTD only.

I'm on OTTD 1.4.2, and am unable to find it in the ingame download menu. Is it still restricted to newer versions?

Needs 1.4.4 release or newer.

Thanks for the heads up. As OpenTTD is seriously undermaintained in Gentoo (guess that none of the current devs are playing it), I ripped off another user's makeshift version bump to 1.4.4. (For tips on how to maintain your own OpenTTD in Gentoo Linux, see this thread.)

Alpha-8 now on bananas.

-- Alpha 8 --

- translation updates: Catalan, Spanish, Latin, Russian, US English, Afrikaans, French, Dutch
- correct names, stats and intro dates for the coaches and buses that were added in Alpha-7
- improved basic graphics for Wookey, Powerstock, Meriden and Cloud Hill trucks
- 6/8 trucks had wrong y offsets for \ / views (the fix reintroduces a similar issue for 6/8 trams that needs handling separately in future)
- Pigstick livestock truck capacity was wrong
- balanced loading speeds for all vehicles
- loading speed bonus for: mining haulers, livestock haulers, bulk farm haulers, bulk powder haulers, tankers, log haulers, edibles tankers, foundry haulers, intermodal haulers
- loading speed bonus for passenger buses and trams (but not passenger coaches)
- cargo aging rate (payment) bonus for: livestock haulers, edibles tankers, refrigerated haulers and passenger coaches

[PikkaBird]

- balanced loading speeds for all vehicles

The Brightling tram won't load - presumably it's been balanced to 0?

Yup, borked, fixed and being tested. I'll do a release soon.

Alpha-9 now on bananas.

This fixes the serious bug Pikka found. Some vehicles had loading speed set to zero, which caused them to sit in stations failing to load cargo. Now fixed. No other changes.

Teaser innit

[V453000 :)]

Your love for those vehicles shines from them like a beacon.

Amazing job.

He he. Dan drew about 70% of them, one of the trucks was originally Pikka's I think, and the tram is adapted from British Tram Set (BATS)

I just chop them and tweak a pixel here and there

Excellent work Andy (and whoever draw those sprites )! Just a fix on the positions and this set will be the best road vehicle set so far!

Keep going, I like to see process on this set

...I also recognise one of my drawings from the eGRVTS, good to see it's qualitative enough to match your expectations
