race cars addon suggestion

Post by laserdog »

okay so there should be a race car that looks like a fourmla one racer
it goes 554 km/h and can hold 25 of any cargo that its refited for
it costs 500,000 but it has a low run rate and it has high relabilty and works for 100 years

also a bridge that is invisble that looks like 2 ramps so it flys over it likes doing some cool stunts

you can do all that.

there is already a NewGRF with a racecar. and you can turn bridges invisible using the transparency toolbar.

adjusting the price and capacity you can do by modifying said NewGRF.

You can already do this.

Go under Options (the wrench icon) ---> Transparency Options, you will see this: Image

Click these two options (in red): Image

Then either look at an existing bridge or build a new one. It will change: Image

Voila. Invisibridges, or ramps. Use the F1 cars from that link posted above and you're all set.

You do realize OpenTTD is a business simulation game and not a 'Formula One Stunt Jumper' game?

If you don't know how to create and edit NewGRFs, how do you know how easy it is?
