Bugs

[ludde]

Could you please list all bugs here. Screenshots are nice. Please write a very detailed description how to reproduce the bug. Too vague bug reports are not useful at all.

On Linux, I cannot exit the game normally.
It gives me the screen:

Are you sure you want to abandon this game and return to windows?

I cannot click 'Yes' in this screen. It doesn't react in any way. The 'No' button works though.


Also, although I'm not sure if it's a bug or something incomplete, but the music does not work in Linux, most likely because it says that no music driver is available.

The rails in monorail and maglev are not right.

When ai builds a train line for two trains when maglev is availible it builds normal railway stations,depots and those thingys with signals used for trains to pass trough each other and It builds all other track in maglev rails .

Flooding of industries doesn't work well

I opened editor, build a city at sea level (surrounded by hills) and a factory. Then I lowered hills and water flooded a city. But industry is still on the water...

[Zooz]

Try that in TTD, it won't flood either

[Killer 11]

The same is with TTD so it's not developers foult he only revrited TTD in C
but the error was in TTD so it exists in OTTD too

[TrueSatan]

Okay i'm starting.
any elcrtic loco is producing smoke instead of electric lightning above the roof (maybe not nessacary right now without overhead tracks )

you can't save custom trainname (not really a bug i know )

custom news configuration isn't remebered (no custom preference is stored so far)

screenshot function isn't working so no screenshot for you

company value is not displayed correctly (line is under the window you see this if you move the window)

more to come ?
greets

[MadEgg]

So what? It's still a bug and needs to be fixed, aye?

[krtaylor]

Try that in TTD, it won't flood either

So, is that a bug or a feature?

I'd say we let it be as it is for the moment and first concentrate on the real OpenTTD bugs, such as wrong tile graphics on snow level if the there are trees on it.

[Dan]

Another bug: My keyboard does not work while in the game. this causes it to be very hard to play the game.

[TrueSatan]

Vehicles sound is strange or even not played (ex. train rolls through tunnel).

there are other sound that sounds not like ttdlx.

only sounds playing like ttdlx are incoming sound and all industry sounds.
it seems that the sounds have an echo.

I would say its better to fix these things right away. Otherwise you really are doing nothing else than cloning Transport Tycoon

I think this bug is in strgen, but I am not so sure.

I added new string definition to english.txt,
then added it to strings.h and used it somewhere in programme.
I compiled openttd, then compiled english.txt to new english.lng and move it to compiled ttd.exe's folder.

I ran it and a message appeared "Could not open english.lng".

Okay, I brought up Total Commander, found differences between old and new file and repaired one byte (I think that was 25th byte from start of file).

I ran the program and here is the result (on the pic below)... - some strings moved a place - is that a mistake of
a) me (if so, where?)
b) strgen.exe
c) ttd.exe
???

And if I clicked to open window (Game Settings) where I added string, another error appeared "String 0x5808 is invalid"

I have found a bug with the "build tracks on slopes" feature... see screenshot

What's stange about this is that it only apends on a savegame !
I've try to reproduce the bug by starting a new game but didn't suceeded...
BTW In the savegame in question it does the asme everywhere on the map (wenn you try to build a tracks on slopes this lowered land)

Note thah the savegame what only use with openTT v1.02 and I am running Win 2k


I also thought about minor change...

1) it would found it nice if the game would allow to open more that 7 windows at one time... playing in High resolution changes a lot

2)Whenn using the shortcut F2;F3... why not make the windows closes itselft you use the shortcut while the windows is open (well that realy isn't that important... I just find it better)


Thx for working on openTT !!

Greetings!!

OpenTTD 0.1.2 BUGS:
-trains/all vehicles slow down tremendeously (go with
the slowest speed) on hills
-settings for terrain properties -> e.g. driving on right
doesn't work, town names too - they are not mixed up
anymore, just English...
-passengers = obstacles on land
-funny: rough land appears in the desert, but gets
replaced by the desert tile very quickly.
-competitors can't build loconotives, just vaggons, e.g.
their "water train" for 2-tile station looks like this: 2
water tankers + 1 rubber vaggon - end - no engine to
pull it...
-although really nice feature, shift - speed up the game -
there is a bug - shift + open train's orders window -
instantly copies all the orders from your other
vehicles/trains.
-build on slopes - sometimes works, othertimes it
says "Allready built."

Features to implement/suggestions (among others):
-vehicles' self renewing
-station ratings equal to competitors'
-english.lng to be implemented like assortment of
comments, so the length of words is not important - no
hex editing, just plain... e.g. tons -> tonnes and the
game doesn't crash

Observations:
-interestingly - a competitor used "build on slopes"
feature - doesn't happen in TTDPatch-ed TTD

-Pressing shift and building things create strance effect ! Graphic bug and other problem (just try it...)

Maybe you should just make that it is impossible to build while holding s***

[Dakkus]

On my machine pressing Alt produces a weirdish graphics error.
The map shows industries with wrong colours.

You can see both of these bugs in the attached picture.

Another little problem is that you're distributing the game only as windows executables. Not too playable on my linux machine..

Latest sourcecode from SVN doesn't work due to some language errors...

only sounds playing like ttdlx are incoming sound and all industry sounds.
it seems that the sounds have an echo.

mike

I thought so too. Various sounds are played (it sounds like) 44Khz in staid of 22 Khz, thus the sound is play at double speed of normal. The strange thing is, it seems to be random.

Also in the subsidy window, the current subsidies are not correctly listed.
Each line starts half a line after the other

Eventually the third subsidy is outside the window.
