I don't know how doable it is, but what about changing it so that the game start with only a logo and we see the game playing, camera moving, etc. But when you click on the screen it pauses the game wherever it's at, brings up the main menu? That would be pretty slick IMO.

dunno, sounds annoying. additional click for no reason.

counter suggestion: a button in the main menu to hide the menu.

What is fourth part for?

I like it - will look like a movie trailer.

Maybe move the "OpenTTD" text a bit further down and that put a line at the bottom "Click here to play" or "Click here to start game" ...

For the experienced player - maybe a command line option to completely by-pass the intro?

But just saw that there is already the "-g [game]" option which allows to directly load a game

The four parts:

T
<index>
<flags>
<duration>

The T marks the sign as a (T)itle screen command.
The index determines the order the commands are considered in.
The flags control details of the command (anchoring, zoom, movement).
The duration is how many seconds the command lasts for.

Vehicle anchoring is not very useful. If centered, train is hidden below menu. Other alignments often lead to only small part of locomotive visible on the screen.
Would be useful to have some X,Y offsets for these commands.
