I think the largest difference between Simutrans and TTD is how cargo destinations work as well as how easy money is to get.
My experience last time I played OpenTTD was pretty much: Slap down a train between two or three small towns and make bank. Because people will happily go wherever.
Simutrans is very stingy with money in comparison. Your first rail line is likely eating up almost all your starting capital and you might well go bankrupt if it's a poor one.
In Simutrans you don't get a high ridership until you connect to places people actually want to go. You'll often see something like "900 passengers not generated, destination not available" on stations. With Simutrans Extended you'd also see that the trip time was too long to be worth taking.
A bus or tram network is largely about letting people have more destinations to generate more passengers from across the map. Rather than something which makes money on its own.
Passengers will use multiple modes to get to their destinations. Take the bus to the train station, over to the ferry, onto another bus etc. Taking up space at the larger hubs as they do so. Waiting for their specific next ride.
So you don't necessarily get a lot more passengers because you have a lot of stations. You get more passengers because you have more good destinations. Small towns are entirely unprofitable until you link up a lot of them.
Cargo also only travels between partnered factories. You can't send goods anywhere, it must be to one of their actual partners. You also have to finish the entire chain. Full factories won't accept more materials.
As far as I can remember. It's a better system than Cargodist. Highly recommended either way. Good graphs for everything you might want too despite the rest of the UI being kind of meh.
Looking myself for all month the prices seem to range from 60-120€ between Paris and Munich by train. Besides, wouldn't one expect the prices to eventually drop as the service is improved and sped up?
Bookmarks are still great as shortcuts via keywords & %s searches in pages that are otherwise clunky or don't support the kind of search you'd want to do.
I've poked around a bit with both interfaces. But I'm not enough of a producer to really understand what you mean. Piano roll patterns and tracker patterns seem pretty equivalent to me. Ie "place note on line."
Do you mind explaining it a bit for me?
Ok I see what you mean. I haven't really frequented any DAW communities though. The hostility to people not already good sounds like a shame. I certainly don't know scales by heart like that either. So even highlighting helps.
By scale limiting you mean showing you the scales?
It's a setting in the piano roll which highlights the notes in the scale you select. Alternatively showing you which scale you've placed notes in if you've made something yourself.
From Unwind's Teknikens Värld link it seems to be mostly a technicality.
>Peter Ternström betonar att det egentligen är lagligt i Sverige också, eller snarare att det inte är olagligt, eftersom farkosten inte ingår i en klassificering.
Peter Ternström points out that it's actually legal in Sweden as well, or rather that it's not illegal, because the craft isn't part of any class rating.
Where the preceeding talks why they chose to sell to the US market first.
>My Thai teachers were asking me about how sweet it was
While I haven't had really sweet thai food. I have bought a large variety of snacks at thai grocers. Something that always strikes me is how sweet they are.
Whether it's prawn crackers, crisps, seaweed, dried fish or corn snacks. It's all so very very sweet.
It's rarely to my western tastes as you say. Though that won't keep me from tasting every variety I can get my hands on.
Even when cooked into jam or jelly with copious amounts of sugar. I still find rowanberries unpalatable and incredibly bitter.
I've never seen commercial rowan anything. Likely because of just that.
