Welcome, Guest

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!

Autoclean 7 years 2 months ago #5890

Today I was on btpro citybuilder #12 8k temperate server

i've made a company and claimed a town under 500
i played as usual about 45 min to about 7k peoples
company was opened and i had money.

suddenly all my stations, trucks and trains are away.
in chat windows there was written: sunistary (my nickname) was autocleaned (empty) or something
and that i go to spectators.

i have only a screenshot from the last cv stats and there is my name, after about 10 min it happened.

somebody knows what maybe went wrong?

Greetings sunistary

found what happened:

Company creation:

[18:55:41]  *** ttd-srv12 * # sunistary (#1597/IP/DE) has started company 2 ()

Joined Spectators:

[19:51:55]  *** ttd-srv12 * >> sunistary (#1597/IP/DE) has joined spectators

16 seconds later, a Player create a new company, yours is reset, to free a slot (explained further how it works)

[19:52:11]  *** ttd-srv12 * ---> Player #2 (#1648/IP/NL) has joined the game
 [19:52:11]  *** ttd-srv12 * # Player #2 (#1648/IP/NL) has started company 15 ()
 [19:52:11]  *** ttd-srv12 * X sunistary Transport (2/Dark Blue) has been closed (Auto-cleaned, empty and no save flag)

Later you called an admin about it:

[19:54:37] <ttd-srv12>  sunistary (Spectator): !admin autoclean
 [19:54:37]  *** ttd-srv12 * !! sunistary (#1597/255 (Spectator)/DE) has requested an admin (Reason: autoclean).

The autoclean plugin works this way:
By default companies aren't reset... unless a slot is needed, checking this question: is there any empty company (no player on it) and without !saveme activated?
(this was what happened in your case)
When there's empty companies and not saved, the autoclean plugins starts searching for a company to reset, freeing a slot, following this parameters, by order of importance: Empty, not saved and without vehicles: Empty, not saved and with lower Company Value;
The common factor is "Empty company - no player on it". Obviously, no companies are reset with players on it. Main idea is to make possible new players make company... since above conditions meet!

I always suggest never leave the company when server is populated or, even better, use the !saveme trigger ( reserved to VIP's )

I know it's a pitty what happened. Anyway, thank you for the understanding

Empty, not saved and without vehicles: Empty, not saved and with lower Company Value empty - but my company was not empty not saved - so i have to become a vip member to avoid it so the player maximum is 15 and every time a player creates the 15th company, a player without saveme being kicked - i think this is a little bit crazy...	sunistary Topic Author Offline New Member Posts: 6 Thank you received: 1

well, lets clear things: - You joined spectators, leaving the company empty - this wasn't a plugin action, it was yours; - No players are kicked from companies to perform company resets to free slots; Rest is already explained.	ST2 Offline Administrator Posts: 1222 Thank you received: 628
