[UI] Multiplayer - reject money gifts

Post by luk3Z »

In multiplayer game you have no choice to accept nor reject money gifts.
That should be ingame window to ask you for accept or reject money gifts from other players.

Why would you want to reject a money gift?

Sometimes a player might want to get his own company bankrupted as soon as possible. Perhaps he was exploiting the initial loan by spending it on roads and canals, which would then be used by another company. Perhaps his own station occupies a critical tile, and he doesn't have the funds to demolish it. In such situations, a rival may stifle the bankruptcy indefinitely by giving small gifts that are just enough to keep the company afloat, but not sufficient to do any actions.

by all due respect, that doesn't sound like a healthy game environment to begin with. how would that be fixed by this feature?

I want to play on my own and I also want more challenges. I've always played without any help on the level as hard as possible, so that was not a boredom.
For me it is fun when you start with 1 or 2 locos and slowly later you buying more and more for your own money. You should try to play on "[PL] OpenTTD Polska Mapa Polski + CargoDist" server to find out what I mean. I enjoy that game without any gifts.
