The North American Renewal Set requires a number of patches to be active to function correctly. There are a number of additional settings which will add to the playing experience, but are not mandatory.
Required Settings
TTDP | OpenTTD | Reason |
---|---|---|
newtrains | n/a | |
newcargos | n/a | A special "cargo" is used to allow the regearable locomotives to be refitted. |
fullloadany | Leave station when any cargo is full, if 'full load' | The regearing cargo is, obviously, never loaded in stations, so the trains must be able to leave despite the locomotives being "empty". |
variablerunningcosts | n/a | These are used extensively in NARS. Why there's even a patch switch for this I don't understand. |
electrifiedrailway | Disable electric rails (Off) |
Additionally, the set will be deactivated if other sets are loaded with the Dynamic Engine Pool patch in OTTD, unless the appropriate NARS GRF Parameter is set.
Recommended Settings
TTDP | OpenTTD | Reason |
---|---|---|
freighttrains | Weight multiplier for freight | I would recommend setting this to at least 5. There are many very powerful locomotives in the set, and you won't get full use of them otherwise. |
curves and mountains | Realistic acceleration | Realistic physics will make the game more enjoyable. The first digit of both "curves" and "mountains" in TTDP should be set to 3. |
wagonspeedlimits | Wagon Speed Limits |
