Introduce yourself to the community!

You can introduce yourself to the community here. I hope you have already read our Simutrans Forum Guidelines first. They can help you to better enjoy your stay in our community and facilitate our job here. Also, older members of community can say "hi" and give you a welcome.

Now, let me present the forum:

We are a friendly community. Here you can learn and participate in our projects and discussions too.

This community has the goal of gathering developers and fans to discuss, develop and publish Simutrans. We have English language as main language, but we have some "parts" of our forum that are reserved for other languages.

Our forum has 6 main sections (we admins call them "categories"). Each main section holds some few boards where discussions can take place. Each board is meant for a kind of discussion and activity, so that we can keep everything organized. If you are going to post a message or a new topic, or searching something, please use an appropriate board. Always use the Forum Search Tool before posting; chances are pretty good that what you are looking for has been posted before.

Now, briefly about our main sections:

:arrow: Information & Announcements
Here you can read important notes for community and know our guidelines, our sites and important services (like chat and blog). Also you can find Simutrans stable releases for download.

:arrow: Community
Here you can ask for help about how to play Simutrans and find manuals, tutorials, and online servers. Also, we have a Discussion space where we can discuss about Simutrans gameplay and a Social space where we share screenshots, stories and hold periodic contests.

:arrow: Development
Here you can post ideas to extend Simutrans engine, get involved with Simutrans development and coding, and help to translate Simutrans in your language.

:arrow: PakSets and Customization
Here you will find our works for development of graphic packs, also know as paksets. It's a very popular place because people are releasing new add-ons, downloading and discussing about paksets and new add-ons. Also, we have a space where you can find tools to help you to play and extend Simutrans.

:arrow: Simutrans Experimental
Here you can discuss and get involved with Simutrans Experimental Branch development and coding.

:arrow: Language boards
It's a part of forum dedicated to the languages other than English. We have subforums for the following languages: Czech, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, Swedish and Chinese.

Well, I hope you get involved with community and with our project and have a great experience.

Hi litlepetslinki !

I hope you enjoy this game and you will enjoy for ages

I don't know if you're the youngest member but you're surely the youngest I see, maybe one day you will make addons or develop the game

Simutrans' community is a miw between young and less young people but we don't care

Everyone is happy (... I think so ...) to be in Simutrans' community. (yes I'm very very happy to be here

).

Good luck for your progress in the game

off topic : how is the weather in Australia ? I think it's summer there because in France everyone feels cold

Hello litlepetslinki,
I myself was 11 when i joined the forum (the old one, now archive.forum.simutrans.com).
The people here vary from 10-70, i saw some old members here, but of course you will notice that a lot of the people here speak very adult and serious (and might overcome monotone).
Happy playing!

Hi, I'm Eagle from Adelaide, Australia. I've been playing Simutrans for quite a while and I am currently working on a supertanker (litlepetslinki came up with the idea) and Australian Railway pack for Simutrans.

Hi.
I came from Poznan, Poland. I'm age of 26 this year. My adventure with Simutrans started from version 0.78 or 0.79. (When it was?) Even then it was the best transport sim. IMHO we can full trashcan with all these commercial games.

I played:
TTD - many many hours, but now is no chance for return ;]
Locomotion - I think its quite good but later in the game you do nothing else but replacing old vehicles :/
Transport Giant - looks good only on screenshots

I'm programmer and maybe one day I will have enough time to help make Simutrans perfect

Regards
Sarrus

Hi people,

I am George but my screen name is hanged94, and I'm from SINGAPORE(:
Some might know me from few years back.
I started with Simutrans 0.8+ , forgot... Since 13, which was 2 years ago, I watched Simutrans grow from monorail to MIDI to now Rivers even.

I'm quite surprised that the old forum was out, and all the past discussion gone. I was lucky they kept my account going...
