Welcome to the BTPro OpenTTD Community

This community was build around the game: OpenTTD
OpenTTD is an (Free) open source simulation game based upon Transport Tycoon Deluxe

 

!!! Please note that a few servers have been shut-down !!!
Most of the times these servers were doing nothing (no players),
that's why I've decided to slim down the number of OpenTTD servers running.

I have made a selection to keep the most popular servers online.
If you miss a OpenTTD server that you REALLY played a lot, please do post
in the forums. I will then check if I can get it back online!

I'm trying to work from now on with only 1 physical server to
run all OpenTTD instances!

The following servers have been shut down recently:

1, 2, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15 & 18

We are badly looking for moderators!

Want to be part of the team?! Want to help?! Read below...

 
NOTE:
Admins will act on the basis that ALL players know the game and it's mechanics.
We think that no one goes to an online game without first some practice and know how to play it.
Companies without registered nicknames (as shown in Client List) on it, can be reset without warning!
To learn OpenTTD mechanics, there is a forum/wiki and... a Single Player mode!!
Practice before playing on BTPro, and if you decide to start, READ THE RULES first.

 
If you wish to become part of the BTPro Server Operator family, ensuring that the rules are upheld with fairly and justly,
the willingness to teach new players on how to play the game and to make sure BTPro is one of the most relaxed,
entertaining servers out there for OpenTTD then apply in the Moderator Applications section below!

Also do not hesitate to ask us a question in the forums or when you see us online on one of the servers!

Happy Gaming!

Buying other company popup box

Buying other company popup box 5 years 3 months ago #6877

So today, when i was playing, company take-over popup appeared, with message "We are looking for a transport company to take-over our company" and price after that.
Now i saw that company had just one bried moment in minus side and really didn´t want to be an ass, so didn´t click yes to buy that company.
But it got me thinking about an interesting question.

What if, when company takeover popup appears, with price lets say 100k. Now at this point i just leave that popup there, not clicking either yes or no. But i´ll wait. Time passes and company grows, to a some number of company value.
Question time.
Now theoretically lets say, i decide to press yes to popup at this point and proceed with company take-over with price 100k.
Would game successfully let me take over that company with price of 100k, even if now company not in minus balance anymore or it just gives me some error, that time for take-over has passed or something?

Indeed a good and fun question :D
I have no idea how that exactly works, so my words can be of pure speculation ^^
When a bankrupt company is offered for sale, I think follows the same concept of offering testing vehicles - ordered by company ratings and after timeout gets offered to the next company (if any).

Anyway, best way is to test it... when it happens, just do what you said! After all can be a real good business :D
