But anyway, it's a bit boring when all the special buildings look the same...

Do you agree that 3 farms in the same region should look differently

spiff that was my previous point on the buildings...if everythings the same it will be an eye sore..

I have no problem with the industries looking the same, but not that close to each other

About the town buildings, you can't have all unique buildings, it would take forever to make
I think that town looked fine already

It's the first time I've joined a forum where we can mold (help create) a new game

From what I've seen already, this will be the successor to TT

and with all our TT experience, we can try and whipe out restrictions

Transport Empire, anyone?

Again, Transport Empire has no limitations, other than the most basic of things.

No, I haven't, but that's in a very early stage

How do you know ? This TG is just another TT like game, so it gets its place here
I don't see why you try to put this game down, I will play both of them if they get finished

I ahve nothing against the game, I don't see how I'm putting it down. Anyway, as TE will be open-source, even if it had limitations, people would probably soon take them out

not bad...really...not bad

but there's one but: the flat terrain :/ just like in IG and IG2 - hard limitations of the engine, and there's no point to be under illusion of changing it

but those pre-rendered sprites look really great

so now we have a clear view of how TE ought to look like

huh? there's a clear note that game bases on IG2 engine which does NOT support any slopes nor bumps.

Bridges - i can understand it but tunnels? maybe tunnels through the cliffs, which are still flat parts.

anyway, there wont be any slides on the ground - e.g. because of vehicles sprites, which cannot contain all possible degrees to run smoothly up and down-hill. (or the game would use 2048ram and 10gb disk space

)

You'll send me ??? what do you mean know ?

Don't bother, I found a post :

It won't be a 3D terrain, but the bridges and tunnels will be on one level
I can imagine them putting sprite mountians that you have to dig through by using a tunnel, but that is not a real tunnel then

There won't be real bridges neither, everything will be on one level

Or as Rein said:
