Hello All!
I have trouble playing (if it could be at all...) multiplayer in OpennTTD.
Often server (I connect to) stops responding on 4th stage while loading map.
After some tries when OpenTTD downloaded map game stops on 6th stage while registering. I see all but I cannot do anything!
But when I disconnect and watching server info it shows that I'm already registered!
I connect to that server again and what I see... World is dead! Nobody's moving! I'm trying to place some railways and stations and I really can't. I mean I don't see any changes. But when I reconnect I see the rails and stations i've built! And world is still dead...
While I watching game world modem shows no activity. It starts to do something only when I'm trying to build something.
Help me, please. What's wrong?
I have good dial-up connection and map downloads quickly -- 3-5 Kb per second.
I have such problems with any server.

I have seen this problem too, on versions from January's nightlies back to months and months previously. You can sometimes seem to connect but everything appears frozen - however, when you try to build stuff, while you cannot see it, everyone else in the game can still see your stuff being built.
Thisd is a very wierd phenomenon, but not one I've been able to track down to a specific cause. Used to get it a lot on LAN games, esp when I was hosting (Win2k) and the clients were WinXP. However, this may be entirely irrelevant, but it's the only difference in the clients that I can think of. All I could think of was probs with the WinXP firewall, but it seems unlikely.
Don't know enough about the network code to say more....

yeah... i have the same problem... is killing me TBFH!!
I really like the game since it first got out, and well like most of us know XP screwed the whole shabang.
Now i got a link from a friend telling me bout open ttd, looks sweet, but hey sp gets boring. lets try mp
For some reason it just rejects 2 get past stage 6/registering.
could some of you guys have a look @ this?
