New Year, New You, New OpenTTD!
OpenTTD 15 is now out and ready for you to play!
Our announcement post is too long for this Mastodon server, so for full news see https://www.openttd.org/news/2026/01/01/openttd-15-0
For a full breakdown of new features, check out this video by Master Hellish, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3iDSxrqAPE
We're hard at work on features for OpenTTD 16, but in the meantime we've fixed a few bugs:
* Don't desync multiplayer clients when a train crashes
* When a helicopter runs out of fuel near the map edge, crash it within the map instead of the void (which crashes the whole game)
* Improve appearance of toolbars and main menu images/text with some non-default base sets such as aBase, biggui, and original TTD

Brr, it's cold out, especially in the subarctic climate where we've been testing some snowy bugfixes.
Yes, it's time for a bug fixing release, OpenTTD 15.1. The list of fixes include:
* Trees grow on partially-snowy tiles again
* Town cargo graphs show correct dates
* The online content list no longer loses name and version at some font sizes
* A variety of other bugfixes, including a critical security fix; see the full changelog for more details

Third, er, Fourth try's the charm? You found some bugs that needed fixing before the full release of OpenTTD 15. Let's do one last (we hope) Release Candidate.
We've fixed two crashes related to station windows and signs, a hang related to implicit orders, and have stopped cacti from dying off completely with some tree spread settings.
Help us test our work!
