On BeOS, run ./configure and then use jam. There are a variaty of options you can pass to your build tool, these are reported by ./configure.

1.2 Installing OpenTTD.

On Windows, insert your "Transport Tycoon Deluxe for Windows 95" disk. You can use a DOS version, but your graphics will be purple. NB: Even if your version of Transport Tycoon Deluxe ran on Windows 95, it may still be the DOS version. Then run the OpenTTD installer.

2.3 Checkpoint Stations

Checkpoint stations (the small blue item in the rail construction window) are small 1x1 stations. They must be built on top of pre-existing track. They do not accept or produce carge of any kind. They exist solely for use as route points. They become useful when dealing with large networks  where trains may attempt to route themselves along undesirable or impossible routes. As an alternative to checkpoint stations, you can also direct trains to visit depots along the way. This has the advantage of also servicing the train and hence the train will rarely to never need to depart from its route to be serviced.

2.4 Freeform Rail Laying.

 - Type in a game name

 - Select the type of game ('LAN/Internet' or 'Internet (advertise)'. With the last one

    other people are able to see you online. Else they need your IP and port to join)

 - Start playing

 - Open the console and type in the following command:

4. Playing Internet-Games

 - Since OpenTTD 0.3.5 the network protocol has been rewritten and is very stable, even over slow connections.

 - It can happen that a connection is that slow, or you have that many clients connected to your server, that your clients start to loose their connection. Some things you can do about it:

 - From 0.3.5, desyncs should not happen anymore

 - From 0.3.5, patch-settings are also synced. You can now play without deleting openttd.cfg, and with, for example, extra large trains enabled.

Please include the following information in your bug report:

        - Bug details, including instructions how to reproduce it

        - Platform and compiler (Win32, Linux, FreeBSD, ...)

        - Attach a saved game or a screenshot if possible

be very difficult to port it to a new platform. The currently working platforms

are:

4.0) Running OpenTTD:

* Use Ctrl to place semaphore signals

* Ctrl-D toggles double mode in the Windows version

* Ingame console. More information at

6.0) Configuration File:

Unix:

  OpenTTD can be built with GNU "make". On non-GNU systems it's called "gmake".

  Note that you need SDL-devel 1.2.5 (or higher) to compile OpenTTD.

MacOS X:

  Use "make" or Xcode (which will then call make for you)

BeOS:

  Use "make".
