Question about Lan server.

Post by Xtri »

Hello, thought I'd ask a quick question here.

Is it possible to run Luuklands City Builder on my own lan server?

Yes it is.

You just have to ask them to give you the source code to the abundance of unpublished hacks they have on their servers or the binaries themselves (which would pose an interesting licensing "question" ;-) ).

Dear Xtri,

Currently our sources remain unpublished due to licensing issues and the possibility of rework. Our system contains a mountain of hacks in order to keep running, when we publish those, just as in the past, the development team will close the exploits and therefore generate useless rework for us. You can however buy our whole server system, so I can go on holiday to Mexico and never return. Of course you can also invite your friends to join you on our servers :). If you like to chat with us, please use the contact us button on our website.

Derailment alert!

Incidentally, Luukland, your installation instructions at http://wiki.luukland.net/Getting_Started are rather... wrong.

Download the graphics from transporttycoon.net
Well, no, the original graphics are not freeware, and it's not legal to download them.

What on earth is "OpenTTD Patch for TTD"?

How about skipping all that rubbish and just suggest to download the installer, which installs everything as needed...?
He's like, some kind of OpenTTD developer.
