Patch: Cities

TheJosh · Post by **TheJosh** » 17 Apr 2007 13:03

This patch is now in Trunk

Hey,

I have created a patch that makes a user-definable number of 'cities', towns with large populations. You can also customize how much larger the cities is (by a multiplier)

I have tested this patch and it appears to work quite well.

This patch has been compiled against the latest nightly I could find. (rev 9666)

Could this patch please be considered for integration with OpenTTD?

Josh

Edit:
v2
Just put up the latest version of the patch, fixes an issue with towns that are 64x64.
Now, if the number of towns is less than or equal to 2, no cites will be created.
If the number of towns is less than or equal to 4, only one city will be created.

v3
Merged with some other city work

I think you have to submit it for review somewhere... maybe through the flyspray bug-reporting system but Im not entirely sure.

Welcome to the forum.

The best way is to get on #OpenTTD and poke the developers! I've seen it done before!

Hmm, but isn't the availability of larger towns already specified by that 1 in x patch option?

This patch creates a number of large towns at level generation time.

Also, i have discovered a bug, I recommend you don't try this on a 64x64 town, with a 'number of cities' set to something above 1...

I will release a version in a few hours that fixes that problem.

Here is a screenshot, notice the three towns with larger populations, yet it is only 1950

That's what the SVN REVERT command was invented for

Josh, well done! And only a handful of posts! Keep up this record and you'll be everyones new best friend!

Great work.

I assume Josh got this in through good coding and also, the fact that he has done so many changes in the few days. It shows enthusiasm and I personally think that is a vital attribute!
