Welcome to the Quickstart for the Stable competition server.

Rules

  • Keep it fair
    • Do not block other players
    • Do not intentionally sabotage
    • Respect general Multiplayer rules
  • Be friendly, Play friendly
    • This means not just behave in a kind way, but we are also used to sabotage others as low as possible.
    • As a result, you should attempt to build as far from anyone else as possible.
    • If you have to build close to others, try to approach near their smaller stations, not large junctions.
    • Golden rule: Communicate!
  • Stealing & competition
    • Servicing the same industry requires agreement of both players, although is not recommended.
    • Straight stealing is prohibited. (if the "owner" - the one who was there first - of the industry agrees, it is no stealing and it is legal)
    • Ask others before entering the town they are already servicing.
  • Towns
    • When you are growing large towns, make sure most of the passengers are taken to inter-city transports. Otherwise the city is "just local" and only wastes cpu, without any use for your network.
    • When growing a town, make sure majority of the buildings are covered. Otherwise you are growing it for no use. An indicator of satisfactory transport is around 50% transported passengers per month (or more).
  • Keep the terraform to a minimum
  • Please, oh please, use the chat system! You can start a chat by pressing "Enter" and entering text
  • Use decent nick, no vulgar/inappropriate nick names
    • You can change your nick via the console (press the key to the left of '1' to open it). Type: name <new-name>
    • You can also use the !name <newname> command
  • Ask for an admin to mediate, if you have issues with another player

Version

We use a stable or testing version, download it from openttd.org

Recommended

  • OpenTTD Manual
  • IRC on #openttdcoop.stable
    In addition to just connecting to the IRC channel, it would be wise to pay attention to the 'topic', as it is often updated with FAQ info about the current game on the Stable Server.
    The topic is usually shown in the main chat window upon channel joining, and at the top of the chat window in most GUI clients. (Webchat)
  • http://wiki.openttdcoop.org/GRF Sometimes we might happen to make a game with especially nice newGRF configuration without limiting ourselves to the online content. It is recommended to obtain the #openttdcoop newGRF pack so you don't miss those games!
