Deluxe is the enhanced version of the original TT back in 95. Now abandon ware, an open source copy remake called OpenTTD offers new AI, graphics, mapping and vehicle algorithms. This was the first Tycoon game, back in the day.
- The game's default port is 3979, you would need to forward to host a net game.
- in game you can browse/download/install and use graphics that are submitted to the Openttd server.
- game can be played in any screen resolution, at full screen or window, manual stretch window size.
- there can be 250 people in a single game, however there can only be 15 companies(teams) so more then 15 people would share building, or just join servers as spectators
- map editor is included
- can easily create dedicated servers, with all the console command control needed. a very lightweight game, a massive 32 player map that's all built up with a thousand vehicles, only runs near 50m on my computer. Ive ran a dozen dedicated servers once, while downloading things all day, and there wasn't lag.

Trains are the most fun to use. can create massive complex junctions and stations, with many in and outgoing trains dodging each other. using properly setup signals in a maze network of track.

The towns on game eventually grow into huge cities on their own, depending how you deliver and transport to and from them.
larger cities have differing needs for goods and higher populations demand faster trans later in game.

road vehicles are fun to watch crowd up a city. cheap and great for starting out.
