On first start-up, the game will ask if you want to participate
in our automated survey. You have to opt-in, and can easily opt-out
(via the Options) at any time.
When opt-in, whenever you exit a game, a JSON blob will be send
to the survey server hosted by OpenTTD. This JSON blob contains
information that gives a global picture of the game just played:
- What settings were used
- How many humans vs AIs
- How long the game has been played
- Basic information about the OS / CPU
All this information is kept very generic, so there is no
chance we send private information to our survey server.
Nothing in the JSON blob could identify you as a person; it
mostly tells about the game played. At any time you can see
what the JSON blob includes, by pressing the "Preview Survey
Results" button in-game.

Previously the decimal_places member was mostly ignored except for
specific conversions. {DECIMAL} with 0 is the same as {COMMA} so there
is no downside to allowing any conversion to have decimals.

There are two fundamental issues with autosave:
- When fast-forwarding, it saves way too often
- When paused, it never saves
Both makes no sense. Autosaves are meant to prevent you from
accidentally losing your work. The emphasis on "your" work.
To solve both issues, the autosave now works on real time. You
can select every 10 / 30 / 60 / 120 minutes, which are similar to
what the setting was in game-months.
When you pause, autosaving will stop. Unless you make any change
to the game; then it will continue to make autosaves, even so
the game is paused. Unpausing / pausing resets this mechanism.
