(svn r2516) - Feature: [pbs] Implement path-based-signalling. This allows multiple trains within the same signal block, provided their paths dont intersect. For this the block must have all exit and entry signals be pbs signals. Place these by ctrl-clicking 4 times on a normal signal.
- Feature: [pbs] Implement autoplacement of pbs blocks, when a block has an entry and an exit pbs signal, covert the entire block to pbs. Can be turned off in the patch settings.
- Feature: [pbs] Allow showing of reserved status by making the tracks darker, when the pbs debug level is at least 1.

Scripting
---------

OpenTTD supports scripts.

local scripts:
 - 'autoexec.scr' is executed on gamestart [all - use this for custom aliases per ex.]

+network scripts:
   should be used to set client optimization settings:
 - 'on_client.scr' is executed when you join a server [all clients]

   should be used to set the servers port/ip and/or server optimization settings/patches:
 - 'pre_server.scr' is executed before the servers tcp stack is started [in-game only]
 - 'pre_dedicated.scr' is executed before the servers tcp stack is started [dedicated only]

   should be used to set the servers name, password and so on:
 - 'on_server.scr' is executed after starting a server [dedicated and in-game]
 - 'on_dedicated.scr' is additionally executed after starting a server [dedicated only]
