Modern UK Trainset

A UK Train Set for OpenTTD including all the latest British Rail classes to be introduced between 2015 and 2025. This set is designed to be played with BRTrains, filling the gap in trains between 2015 and 2020, rather than on its own. Graphics are designed to work best with the Finescale UK Track Set, but will work with any track combination which provides 3rd rail tracks. (Note that BRTracks doesn't work perfectly and 3rd rail trains won't be useable)

Installation

Grab the latest release from the in-game content downloader.

Alternatively get it from the releases page and copy it into your OpenTTD/newGRF folder.

Building from Source

Building from the source should be mostly automated using the build.py script, but it has a few requirements:

• Python3.8 (may work on earlier versions but untested)
• nml Python package (available through pip)

To build the grf completely, just run the following command in your terminal:

python build.py --compile mukts

This should first compile the .nml file, then compile that through to a .grf file using nml. Install in the same manner as previously described, copying the generated .grf file into OpenTTD/newGRF.

To copy the grf and start the game, closing all existing instances, run the following command in your terminal of choice:

python build.py --run mukts

This will also perform the --compile function, and will not start the game if an error is thrown during the compilation process.

Building with Powershell

Alternatively, you can build the project through Powershell. To find out how to use the Powershell build script, simply run:

Get-Help .\build.ps1 -Full

The most commonly used command invocation is:

.\build.ps1 -StartGame -Verbose

Note, this method still requires the nml python package to be installed.

Contributing

If you want to add to the pack, just pull request it and it might make it in.
Alternatively, if you just want to steal the build script(s) then go wild.
