Simutrans-Extended official information and announcements / Re: How to get Simutrans-Experimental
Quote from: jamespetts – on
Was that compiled manually, or is it an automatic build as with the Linux 32 and 64 bit x86/x64 versions?

Edit: Also - can you give me some brief installation instructions to include in the "How to get" thread? I am not familiar with the Amiga platform.
What's the difference with config/simuconf.tab standard and experimental? Since I used the latter but thought that "sim-ex" could be simply dropped where the standard install is, especially if the standard has already been run before (I noticed the experimental build seems to require display_width and height set, unless -res option is used). A "full" archive with Pak128.Britain is not out of the question, either, since I noticed there were similar releases for other platforms.

But the customary way to install is to let the user put one directory wherever, and have everything that is exclusive to the program, under this directory. If the user has HOME env variable but doesn't want to install it there, singleuser_install should be 1.

It's a manual build, ie. I ran make after editing (with proper defs) two additional files compared to standard. I have made notes about these as well. I compiled with a native compiler, but even a slightly dated cross-compiler would probably come up with a statically linked executable.
