  1. Honestly I loved it! It really sets the site apart from other boring forums and was the first thing I was impressed with when I first came to the site upon hearing about it. To each his own though.
  2. Sorry, will the new forums and site eventually look like the original .net site?
  3. Will it eventually have the same layout?
  4. I think it'd be neat to have an OpenRCT group on Facebook so that people can post on it and arrange multiplayer games, talk about stuff with the ease of Facebook, etc. Pages are more for companies that you won't interact with, OpenRCT is a community!
  5. :OI feel dumb. Thank you Broxier. Much appreciated!
  6. Ah, I didn't realize the "2" was in minutes. I'm surprised though, because after a crash once I loaded the autosave and lost 15 minutes of work.
  7. First off, wow. You guys have come a long way! Played multiplayer with a friend last night for a few solid hours, having only one crash from trying to place staff as a client (which is a known issue). I'm amazed =)Anyway, my two suggestions are:1) Ability to change auto-save interval for online games. I see "autosave" in the .ini, but it's just equal to 2 on mine, so I don't know if that's 2 minutes, 2 hours, or some other random variable. Had to open an autosave once, and it was at least 15 minutes old.2) Have stalls automatically open on placing them. There's not really a point to having a stall closed, unlike with rides. Maybe it's just a minor "who cares" thing, but it's an inconvenience =P
  8. That's how I complete hedge mazes in real life, +1 to OpenRCT for realism!
  9. Maybe you guys should start a thread for each park you guys create together and upload the finished product in the OP! Would love to see what you guys end up with =P
  10. "I want to get out of the line to Mr Bones' Wild Ride"
  11. You still speak better English than most natives online! Also under profile options for toggling ads on, it's "100% optional", not "optionaly"
  12. Sorry, I meant that I don't have time right now to work on it; count me out of the list. I don't want to hold anyone up since I won't really have the time until winter.@SnowMew, those 1's drive me crazy too. It'd be a cool feature for the devs to make it default to no number unless there's already an existing one (I think thats how RCT3 worked?).
  13. Hello! I just took a peek at each page on the site and found a few things to correct (I know you guys aren't native English speakers, but you guys did a great job with spelling overall). I wrote the correction next to the misspelling (it was mostly on the Developers page anyway, but important eyes will see it!). The one on the Terms page is a font issue I think, probably nothing to sweat about though.http://i1214.photobucket.com/albums/cc490/Derf321/corrections.jpgAnd holy crap, 50k downloads?! It's crazy it's like 200 downloads a day!
  14. I'm sorry!! I didn't realize we were starting now and doing it turn-by-turn! I haven't had much time between my studies and work to get on here (let alone play video games!). Maybe this December I'll ask to hop in the line-up, or if it's a dedicated server or something then I'd help out. Sorry to hold you guys up! I feel bad D:EDIT: Did a good deed to repent: https://openrct.net/forum/topic/598
  15. Yes! Leafy Lake was my favorite from RCT1
  16. I like the idea! Would be a lot cooler when multiplayer becomes stable. Is it still really fragile with disconnecting (haven't played multiplayer in a while)?
  17. I have a few of em saved and I'd like to tell my friends' servers apart. It's hard to memorize IPs! =)
  18. Never seen that before! I wonder how it's calculated if it's not by "lost" guests. Maybe amount of path vs how much path is actually used?
  19. Yeah, I'd say having multiple would be the best bet. Maybe when a user loads the page, it'll display a random one out of a pool of them?Might submit one if I find the time =)
  20. Haha, yeah it follows the last two letters of the word: firST, secoND, thiRD, fourTH. Most of em beyond that are TH so you're not far off. Didn't know you were from Belgium, that's pretty cool! By the way, is there a list of all current devs or big names? I only know Krutonium and yours =P

    @ImLegos, me too! @SnowMew, try adding just "openrct.net" to the whitelist, or add both the http and https versions.@runelaenen, thanks for the ads! (wow, never thought I'd say that)

    Ah, that sounds like a good system. Maybe consider allowing users to turn on ads for the forum and front page though, I'd opt into it =)

    EDIT: Hmm, can't edit the original post. But I just found the option to "Hide Ads" in profile settings. Are they a work in progress? I can't see ads on any browser (and I whitelisted the site on Chrome).

    This might seem like a strange idea, but here goes:I, as well as other people I'm sure, really want to support you guys. I don't have the funds to donate to donate. Seeing as how the website doesn't have ads (presumably to keep a nice interface and a good impression for new-comers), I'm guessing that 100% of the cost of server upkeep is out of pocket. So my proposed idea (or different options that I suggest) are:1. Turn on ads for all 2. Turn on ads for all, but have a toggle button to turn off ads for free3. Allow registered users to opt-in to advertisingI'm also wondering how hard it would be to allow advertising in-game (in a window). I know it might sound crazy, but I really want to support you guys, but I can't do it out of pocket.Whatcha think?
