Aircraft cargo transportation

Post by Jymmy097 »

Hi everybody,

Not sure if this is the right section to post this question. In case, I apologize for the mistake.

I started playing OpenTTD a few days ago and when I tried to transport cargo (iron ore, steel, grain and so forth) with an airplane, I had none that could serve that purpose.
Is this a normal behaviour of OpenTTD or am I missing something important? If this is a normal behaviour, are there some addons that would permit it?

Thanks a lot for your time and your replies.

Some plane sets do allow you to carry all cargoes on planes (I'm sure someone else can tell you who), but I think base planes only take passangers

Maybe you can try:
  • - av8 Aviators Aircraft Set
    - Improved M Cars
Both sets lets you transport more cargoes than the airplanes included in the base game; But av8 is a full set with a great planes collection while Improved M Cars is a really recent set, with has great things, but it's still a baby :oops:

In any case, you can download these sets from BaNaNaS (online content available directly from the game).

Other option is to transport these cargos in a train, and leave the planes for a urgent cargo; Maybe the best option.

Thank you for all information you provided: they are very useful.

I first try to use a train, then I'll switch to airplanes.

Thanks!
