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!

More Ships on Short Goal 12 years 7 months ago #632

I'm not a fan of waterwalking at all, but with only 10 ships allowed there's no way to build a good oil network without waterwalking. So my suggestion is to increase the ship number to some reasonable value, say 100, or 500 as on long goal servers.

Maybe increase it to 15 but not 20.

On quick goal servers I would like to see boats allowed too like a limit of 5 or something.

nothing in this game kills the servers more than boats, therefor you will never see the limit of boats increase to anything above 25.

For example on server 2 long goal temperate. someone decided to go full out boat empire. suddenly server 2 took all the cpu power itself. leaving nothing for the others and resulting in each server being unresponsive and time eventualy go down.

even the strongest of todays servers will struggle with big maps loaded with boats :)
(you may wonder why boats cause this much harm, i honestly have no answer to give :)

Re: More Ships on Short Goal 12 years 6 months ago #772

Boat path finding on openttd is just very poor, and it still eats cpu. I think its due to a boat being able to take any water-path he wants unlike a train, which is bound to a certain track.
Personally I'd encourage to have no ships at all, but that would make the oil rigs a bit useless indeed (unless waterwalking)
