I did put in my previous and actual games symetric distribution for passengers. Doesn't change anything, passengers still climb on my trains and get off at next station.

It takes a while before you notice a change. Existing passengers do not get new destinations, only new passengers do.
If you look at waiting passengers at a station, you will find a "+" behind the list. If you click on it, the line expands to the destinations and passenger counts.

Note that "symmetric" adds a requirement where the amount of passengers in both directions is mostly equal. This works for trains that visit towns that are all mostly equally large. If you change it to "asymmetric", this extra requirement is dropped, and a train in one way can have much more passengers than a train in the other direction.

No, i mean, since their beggining, my games are with this parameter set on symmetric.

Post a save game, so people can figure out why it fails to work then.
Right now, it's just random tossing ideas into the air.

Could this be added to the GS API? In order for the author of the script to make his own windows?

I would like to see AI added to the game. I know you can download some however a lot of them are outdated OTTD needs its own AI just like it was when OTTD started.

Add a parameter to openttd.cfg that would define the path to the .scn or .sav file of the game that is to run after the end of the previous game.

The problem is that after a .scn or .sav game has ended automatically, a random game is started, which is not always appropriate.
