Hi all NewGRF gurus!

I would like to make a newGRF for TTDP/OTTD to make productions more like TTOriginal's - two ways:
1.) How can I change only default production rates (e.g. for Coal Mine it's 15 (x8 or x9 = 120 or 135))?
2.) Or - how could I change how many times per month industry gives out cargo (instead of 8x or 9x to 12x or 13x or 14x). Now - one method for this I did long time ago was for OTTD to change ottd.c's DAY_TICS from 78 to 112, but would it be possible to achieve through a NewGRF?

Thank you for your assistance.

P.S.: This newGRF could then also be a part of the great NewGRF called Full_TTO_Conversion...

You didn't look too hard, did you?

Oh my - is it that simple - I mean I knew of that part of the TTDPatch Wiki, but I dismissed it just because it says 6 or 7 times. No TTD industry puts out cargo at such multipliers - the usual numbers are 8x or 9x or some more odd ones for low(est) productions and forests with less than 400t production...

Well - now that I found the time to try this so-called multiplier out - I see it's only production_rate like I suspected in my starting post.
Better than nothing I guess...

NewGRF cannot change that.
NewGRFs can say that production happens:
- Every $WHATEVER_NUM ticks, 8 or 9 times per month
- Whenever cargo arrives
- Both of the above
- Never

Thank you for your reply, I appreciate it.

Question though: how would I express that an industry should give out cargo let's say every 170 ticks? I just don't see it in the specs - under action 0 it says only 256 ticks.

You cannot change $WHATEVER_NUM.

I thought so... pity.
