My Documents\OpenTTD\ from 2010 is already >180MB. There are cloud storage size limit considerations here too. Since GRFs and such large stuff is in that folder, it doesn't seem appropriate to sync it all. For those who wish to help us with this endeavor, feel free to contribute patches and work with the development team to implement features you would like to see in a future release of the game.Ĭloud Save indeed is just a backend checkbox without needing any code adjustment. The one thing we do not want to happen is for a Steam version to be developed which is too fragmented to become sustainable, or for us to end up with a version we cannot continue to support if a contributor leaves.Īs such, we release OpenTTD on steam currently without integration, and will slowly work on a better tomorrow. But, this is not an easy task, and will take some time.
#OPENTTD SAVED GAME HOW TO#
With that said, this also means our journey to integrate better with Steam has just begun, and there already has been talk about how to integrate more. In the last few years, changes to the tools and processes needed to be implemented, and adding Steam to our supported platforms became a realistic goal. The main obstacle to this had been the tools and processes that OpenTTD had previously set up, and lack of time and capability by contributors to make the necessary changes. Distribution via Steam has been one of the more sought-after requests from our players. The primary motivation for adding OpenTTD to Steam was to make the game more widely available through popular platforms.


All contributors develop for OpenTTD in their free time, and OpenTTD fully depends on those contributors to make the game grow. Nobody is paying contributors anything to do the things they love. OpenTTD is an Open Source game, available free of charge (and without DRM etc), build and run by volunteers (contributors).
#OPENTTD SAVED GAME UPDATE#
As this appears to be one of the most-asked questions currently, since OpenTTD announced its arrival on Steam, we are creating a pinned post to update users on the status of adding Steam tools and workshop features to OpenTTD.ĪS OF LAUCH DATE 1 APRIL 2021, OpenTTD does not yet offer any integration with Steam tools or workshop, and currently has no firm plans to do so.
