But then you would also need two mouses and two keyboards.
I think it's impossible.

You could set up two different companies and have a 'Player2' option in TTDPatch. The AI never controls the second player and you can feely swap using the manage.

Maybe it possible to create TTDPatch that do that. Arathorn I mean like game "Settlers 2". You must have 2 mouses (COM or USB or PS/2). Some keys could be on screen (like "Ctrl") and for entering text there could be a switcher for keyboard user (for the first or for the second player). Spaceman-spiff, "Settlers 2" is old game too, but it's possible there.

Perhaps, i don't know that game !
But it's very hard building something in an existing game then when you're doing it while the development

It's currently possible, if one doesn't mind the AI stuffing their company around ;). I think that the "player 2" idea is a good idea, but probably hard to implement. I think they should focus on the new graphics, seeing as that is a massive undertanking.

Maybe a good idea for the future, but not fo a while :)

It's impossible (and I doubt it would be fun... only seeing half of the screen... :?)

If it was turnbased, you could implement HOT SEAT by using the sign cheats to switch control over the companies :) But I have never seen a transportation game in Turn Based Mode hahaha
