OpenTTD is my happy space. It's relaxing to just hop in and start building some railroads.
I've got OpenTTD downloaded, but always end up going down the rabbit hole of looking at mods, and then sort of giving up on the idea :p
Is it worth it vanilla or do you have any other tips at all for trying to get into it?
Vanilla is pretty good. I think the only mod I really used was the one to add trams to the game.
Cool:) I'll definitely give it a try when I next get the chance^^
Oh, I remember checking this out! It's a very cool project, although I'm not very good with these types of games
Oh wow, I love openTTD, I never thought I'd see another person who played it in the wild.
I love the look and stuff but just could never get into it, any tips for a newcomer?
The wiki is pretty good at introducing the concepts and basic gameplay strategy. Overall I'd say just learn by doing. Half the fun is building crazy train networks and seeing if they actually work.
My usual strategy is to just build out bus routes at first to generate a steady income stream, and then from there start to go wild with the trains.
Thanks for the tip
