It's also on GOG for slightly cheaper if you're a euro person.

Do we want a computer opponent? No. Since this is a long map, and the game will likely go on for a long time, the ai will eventually do some pretty jarring stuff. Say there's a train route between two cities, the ai wont hesitate to build the very same route, but elevated with a bridge someplace to cross the other line. A third ai might then want to get in on the action and build another route on top of the others, again elevated. Which leads to stuff like this:


The entire map will fill with this poo poo.
Unless you plan on doing only 1 ai, in which case it's probably ok.

You're able to make a profit with the early trucks? How? Anytime I've used them no matter the distance or product I've been losing money. Seems weird now that I think about it, but maybe there's something I'm missing.

Boats are cool, though they sometimes require terraforming to make a proper harbor and lots of waypoints since the pathfinding is :downs:
