That's valid C? I was not aware of that. (Learn something every day.)

I don't see why that is funny, but yes, there are a lot of classes and support functions.
You don't need to understand everything before you can make changes, so just study the part that you are interested in.
I didn't mean it's funny how many classes there are, just suprised there are that many. Very interesting tho - how long do you think it took to actually design and program the first version of tt?

If you meant OpenTTD: about one year:

If you feel that OpenTTD has an excessively large number of classes, then you should consider getting into TTDPatch development instead.

Hee hee, unless you don't like 'an excessively amount of lines of x86 assembler'

Hi,
Can someone provide me with a step by step guide on how to add this mod? I'm guessing you have to download the source code for OTTD, change some code and then compile it?
Thanks in advance I will appreciate any information on how to add this mod

Sorry, it failed to update to trunk (something to do with rail.cpp)

Grate patch boekabart! Added it to
my server pack
I have an idea about improving it a bit... Maybe make small speed reduction when tracks are with grass? like 1-5% speed reduction for each phase of growth? I'm not sure if its possible in easy way...

So what do you think about adding small speed reduction caused by grass? And second thing.. If there is grass i think would be nice to have snow in arctic scenarios
could be hard to make it depend on actual line of snow but it should be doable. Of course snow should reduce speed same or even more then grass. If someone don't like speed reduction there can be option to turn it off in advanced settings.

If there is to be a speed reduction, I for one would want it toggle-able.
And snow for arctic is good, how about also sand for the desert parts of tropic though?
