Currently we have 4 Server Operators:

Frank, ST2, Wacko1976, Inscius!

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!

They are far too good and there's no drawback AT ALL to building them (since you always have extra money and building them doesn't take you further away from goal). Also, add another server - the CityBuilder server is far more popular than the old servers, might as well shut some of the ones that are never used down and make a CityBuilder #2.

As you are aware it is impossible to remove lumbermills from the game since they are classed as a primary industry, hence having the same status as a factory. Would love to remove these gamebreaking mills but sadly will have to wait and see if the developers add an option to enable/ disable sawmills on desert.

While the addition of a second CityBuilder server may be a good idea for us. It does represent several issues on server resources and the playerbase. Long story short, a second hosting server or a new more powerful hosting server will be required for us to run a second CityBuilder (even if we axed 2-3 of our current servers).

N-ice use to sport two desert CityBuilder servers which cut their player base for CityBuilder in half and finally killed the playerbase for it as less people wanted to play when there were only 5 companies actively playing. Now they have 1 desert CityBuilder which is still proving to be unpopular. So reluctant due to experiences known aswell.

Glad you enjoyed playing though! Alot of hard work has gone into it's development

And you can remove them or alter with newgrf, which is also a reason, why openttd developers will not make a disable button Admin of Novapolis OpenTTD servers, www.novapolis.net	TheDude Offline Senior Member Novapolis admin Posts: 46 Thank you received: 11

cxc, alright, bummer. The_Dude wrote: What do you have against lumber mills. They're awesome.

There is no reason to use Oil / Copper / Rubber when Lumber Mills are this overpowered. I enjoy a balanced game.	Zalmar Topic Author Offline Senior Member Posts: 61 Thank you received: 0
