Transport Tycoon - PC
Good Ratings Made Easy:
-----------------------
When you rename a town rename it "Happy Town" it will give your town a good rating.
Hint:
-----
Build a tunnel from one end of the map to the other and the tunnel will be so
expensive that the price will get a negative amount that will be added to your
account.
Hint:
-----
To ruin a good road network for a competitor, simply place a rail piece at right
angles over a piece of road, then use the bulldozer to destroy it. The computer
will not rebuild it!
Fast population:
----------------
When creating a city, put down a large city, start expanding it, take out all the
small houses, and keep expanding. When it takes a lot of clicks before it increases
population (usually around 30,000), put a small city as close as possible, even if
it touches. Then, delete the small city and the large city's population will stay
the same even though a portion of the city itself was erased. This may be repeated
until about 70,000, at which point it will revert back to 0.
Faster trains:
--------------
If you have a long train that takes a long time at stops, make sure you have a
train orientation depot on your track. When it stops at a station, let it unload/
load at a station, then press the button with a train on it. Then the train that
is at the stop. Press the button to turn it around if needed, then finally press
the button that takes the train to the depot twice, It will leave the stop and
go to the next one.
Eliminate CPU buses:
--------------------
Build a snaking railroad line over the bus route. The train will destroy the CPU
buses, but will also eliminate your own trucks and buses.
Eliminate CPU airplanes:
------------------------
Build a tree covered tall hill at the end of the CPU's runway.

=======================
Make Millions of Dollars the dishonest way!
Step 1: When a company is about to go bankrupt and asks you if you would like
to purchase the company, say "No".
Step 2: Open up that company's window and purchase 75% of their stock.
DO NOT CLOSE THAT WINDOW!
Step 3: Move the window off to the side of the screen and forget about it for
3 months of game time. The computer player will be declared bankrupt,
but the displayed value of the company in the STILL OPEN company
window will be in the millions!
Step 4: Sell the 75% of the company you own and you'll make a bundle!
Note: This has crashed my system on several occasions! SAVE YOUR GAME BEFORE
THE THREE MONTH MARK IS UP!
