  1. OpenRCT2.com and OpenRCT.net currently have three different menus between them:
    - These forum's
    - Those from the other parts of OpenRCT2.com
    - Those on OpenRCT.net

    Considering the integration process is still underway, this might be solved with it.

  2. I have attempted to implement this quite a lot of times, but it seems there is still some original code interfering with it. I had some success, but only with a handful of rides, so my guess is I can override track limits but not vehicle limits. It will probably take some more implementation until I can properly implement it. (8 cars per trainer did it by editing memory, which isn't very easy to do properly.)

  3. I disagree with "You'll have to keep using Wine". Sure, it contains slightly more bugs, but almost all of them are language-related, so running it in UK English will save you most of them. It's certainyl daily usable, which coincidentally is exactly what I do.

  4. - It is certainly possible to introduce one, and I can imagine a few use cases for it- The average user would normally use the object selection window (open object_selection in the console or using the debug tools) to change the selection, though that one still has some issues with some parks.

  5. Personally I prefer JensJ's idea of Shift+ or Ctrl+ (or Alt+) clicking, since prices have a conversion factor (£1.50 is encoded as 15 and ¥1500 as well, if I'm not mistaken).

  6. Since January 2007 Vista has been preinstalled on most Windows computers. Even if you take the bad reputation of Vista and thus the custom-built XP computers in the Vista era into account, it still means that the cutoff line is 2009. In other words: computers running XP are at least six years old. It means many are going to fail within the following year, forcing the owners to buy a new one anyway. Also, most Linux distributions run well on computers of that age (my mother's laptop is an eight-year-old 1.87 GHz Celeron, running Ubuntu 14.04 without problems).Also, it still leaves all the drawbacks of XP I mentioned. If OpenRCT2 was a paid program, we might have supported XP. But since it isn't, and we have more than enough work on our hands as it is, the extra work involved is not worth it. Even today, we have had only a handful of questions about it, and XP usage is shrinking.

  7. Yep, it is playable on all windowses newer than Win XP. It should (and will) be playable on XP though in the future.
    None of the main devs have actually said it should be playable on XP. What they have said is that non-intrusive patches to add support for it are welcome. But that depends on someone capable and willing of doing that. Considering XP is 14 years old, no longer maintained, lacks a lot of API calls that are present in Vista and higher, and its usage is shrinking, there is by no means a guarantee that XP will ever be supported.
  8. I just said that I want to keep the option to just block guests, exactly for the purpose of directing guest traffic, or in my case, preventing them for trying to use exit paths the wrong.As for the checkboxes, I said I preferred a dropdown, but that's a bit beside the point.
