I've posted a nice, lengthy new blog post at http://pikkarail.com/announcements/hello-again-world/
TLDR; Alpha 1 of UKRS3 is now available on my Patreon page.
I'm sure many people will be wondering why I've gone down the Patreon route. There are a couple of reasons: firstly, of course, even a modest income would help justify the time and effort I’d like to put into creating this content, allowing me to create more, and create faster. But secondly, it's an opportunity to bring more of the community into the development process: like most developers, most of what I've made for OpenTTD has never been released, because it never reached a stage that was suitable for mass consumption. Having a more controlled environment like Patreon will allow work to be shared much earlier in the development cycle, with more feedback, and more motivation.
As always, let me know what you think.
