I've got OTTD r119b (2004-8-23) - that's how it is shown on the menu in OTTD - and have encountered a peculiar problem.

When you make a scenario, and save and then attempt to play it, I keep getting the following error message which causes OTTD to crash out:

!invalid string ID 0 in GetString

any ideas guys? I'm going to try the latest nightly build just in case someone else has found the same problem and has fixed it already....but I thought it worth mentioning to see if anyone else has had a similar problem.

Doesn't happen here.

Can you post your scenario so we can have a look at it?

haven't got my laptop here at the moment.

However when I get home, I'll try out the latest nightly build and see if that works....otherwise I'll post my test scenario here..

i got a similar error trying to load a scenario that was without cities, only plane terrain (i built a city in an angle so i resolved te error)

you cannot have scenarios without cities. The game will tell you that when you try to load it.

just a quick update:

I've downloaded the latest (25th Aug 2004) nightly build of OTTD and that works now....I can play my custom scenarios now
