Unsinkable Sam

[Alberth]

As usual with projects of andythenorth, everything is stored in a Python project at the devzone ( http://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/unsinkable-sam ).

Also as usual, the project also generates documentation of the build: http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/unsinkable-sam/
pick a nightly or a release (latter may not exist yet), and a version, then "docs".

Finally, Andy may change his mind about the ships and the values, so they may change to improve game play.

So Unsinkable Sam is another ship set ?!
Who's next ?!

[kamnet]

Calling this "another ship set" is like calling Mona Lisa "another painting".

[acs121]

It is another painting, among so many other paintings !

So Unsinkable Sam is another ship set ?!

I only know of two finished ship sets, NewShips by Michael, and WSFF set by Andrew350.

I don't understand why it's a problem that I'm drawing one.

Not a problem at all. In fact your work is greatly appreciated. I know of at least one other, something about a fish ...

It's author may not consider it finished

It's author may not consider it finished

A defining property of great authors and artists is that they never consider their works to be finished.

One thing I learnt from drawing .. we improve with age .. hence why we keep adding and changing what we did before and make them better.

Keep up the good work.

[Gwyd]

I never finish because I don't have the time...

[acs121]

Well, UK CAF EMUs and UK AC PEP EMUs are finished
No, seriously, i'm conscious BRTrains isn't finished. There's still lots of work to do : freight cars, locomotives (Class 88 II), all that stuff...

Great, does "stuff" also includes ships for Unsinkable Sam?

I was talking about Gwyd's post.

- Mini Fast-loading Passenger Ship

kinda, sorta looks like a Mini Fast-loading Passenger Ferry.

[kamnet]

Unfortunately I haven't had a chance to play with this yet, I've been too sick. But that fast ferry looks fabulous!

[Pyoro]

They all look awesome.

Not much else to say about them. Simply that good ^^;

That one is lifted from Andrew350's WSFF set, I just shortened it
