and if the player wants to maintain zone specific speed limits the player will have to monitor the towns as they grow?

if (openttd_version <= version_openttd(1, 9, 1)) {
	error(FATAL, REQUIRES_OPENTTD, string(STR_MIN_OPENTTD_VERSION));

For a specific example, let's say I want to abuse this for transport of liquid cargo in pipes. For some areas I want pipes to overlay with roadways in some areas, and overlay with tramways in other areas, so that I can provide a seamless transport from end to end.

Use the sprite aligner tool. Point it at a tram track and then point at each of the sprite numbers in the right panel, starting at the bottom. Repeat this for a non-road tram track, an on road tram track and a no-track road. Look for the first layer that is common to all three. That is where your pipe needs to be ... if it is possible.

I'm not suggesting alignments. Just using the alignment tool to reveal the structure of a road tile and a tram tile. But them, that is a graphical solution. Are you looking for a coding solution, a vehicle that runs on both road and tram, ROAD (Normal road) and RAIL (Tramway)? Scroll down on this page for an image.

this is because master is "1.10-alpha", "1.10.0" is a future stable version that is not released yet. to refer to the unstable version you need to give a 4th argument:

Code: Select all

version_openttd(1, 10, 0, 0)
