Simutrans is a free and open source transportation simulator game. You may be familiar with Transport Tycoon and its modern OTTD variant. Simutrans shares some early history but is its own game - very different in gameplay style, although similar in the sense of transporting passengers and goods.

By pakset, is it kinda Scenarios/ Addons for the game?

@TheDarkBanana87 A pakset defines all objects, their values and their graphics. Simutrans is like an engine to play different paksets. While they all work the same in theory, the gameplay can differ quite a bit.
For example, if a pakset sets vehicle costs per tile, you want to make them wait until full, costs per month you never want them idle.
