Hi there

every now and then i open my old box with old games and take some time to play with , so I did with Open TTD.
Last version I had installed was 0.7 ....

Now I start to play again , putted the fantastic YACD upon, activated FIRS ( which is definetely as hot to be put into the trunk as YACD ) but it seems I forgot some things. Next to my user name here *grmbl* I also have no clue how to make Open TTD putting signals automatically while dragging a straight.

With CTRL and dragging ( by mouse if this is important ) I activate the deletion of the track.
With Shift and ALT I have no effect at all.

In the advanced settings it is enabled.
MY actual version is YACD 2.3

Thanks for helping.

First build track. After that select the build signal tool, than hold ctrl and drag the signals a few tiles over the track. Signals will be build along the complete track automatically, even following turns. If you didn't hold ctrl signals will only be build over the part you dragged them over.

If you want another username, you're just in time for the Username change requests topic.

As far as I know, yes. Try it to be sure though.
