Transport Tycoon Forums

So I was just playing on a server that had some crazy high infrastructure costs, which caused me to quickly burn through my initial multi-million dollar loan. I needed to borrow some more money, and fast! But, alas, when I open the finance menu I can only click the button to borrow $20,000 at a time. This quickly turned into a VERY unfun game of Cookie Clicker, having to employ two fingers on the mouse button to try to build up as much borrowed cash as I could before the infrastructure costs wiped out what I just borrowed! After a furious four minutes of frenzied clicking, I finally got what I needed to borrow before I got wiped out again, but by then I was too discouraged to continue playing.

It would be WAY easier if there was a numerical entry box where I could just type in how much I needed to borrow.

Hold Ctrl while clicking the button to borrow as much as you're allowed.

what i usually do is ctrl+click on "loan" to get to the maximum, do whatever expensive thing i need to do, and then ctrl+click on "repay" to get rid of as much as possible

Hi,
in JGRpp it is actually possible to shift-click and choose how many money to borrow. Also there is possible to configure max loan. (is this also in vanilla?)

I think the JGR solution is good and rather sufficient (maybe RMB click instead or also with Shift+LMB would be better). This graphic is part of a larger presentation of ideas that I created over 2 years ago when JGR had yet to make an improvement (?).
Today as an alternative solution if someone would like to take care of it.

Another solution could be to use Alt + LMB to borrow / repay 10x the amount.
And then Ctrl + Alt + LMB to borrow / repay 100x more.

*slaps forehead* And I knew this, too... *sighs* Thank you.
