Prior to this change, road vehicles would always slowdown in curves. This forces the player to build grid like roads. With new height levels and more mountainous maps and in the absense of diagonal roads this causes unnecessary pain. It should be an option to turn this off, so mountainous maps and curvy roads are not punishing the player unnecessarily. Nobody wants to build grid like roads outside of towns.
Unfinished translations are not auto-picked from the locale.
In release builds, unfinished translations are not offered in the GUI.
Unfinished translations are available in non-release builds, or by editing openttd.cfg.
"Hardware acceleration" was not aligned with its checkbox. So instead
of drawing the labels left and the options right, now draw settings
one by one with a spacer between label and option to get the right
spacing.
Also, use SetPIP instead of repeating a SetPadding for all but
last element.
Vsync should be off by default, as for most players it will be
better to play without vsync. Exception exist, mainly people who
play in fullscreen mode.
This better reflects what it is, and hopefully removes a bit of
the confusion people are having what this setting actually does.
Additionally, update the text on the setting to better inform
users what it is doing exactly, so they can make an educated
decision on how to change it.
Next commit will introduce an "auto" value, which should be the
new default. The rename has as added benefit that everyone will
start out on the "auto" value.
This is an indication value; the game tries to get as close as it
can, but due to the complex tropic rules, that is unlikely to be
exact.
In the end, it picks a height-level to base the desert/tropic
line on. This is strictly seen not needed, as we can convert any
tile to either. But it is the simplest way to get started with
this without redoing all related functions.
Setting the snow coverage (in % of the map) makes a lot more sense
to the human, while still allowing the niche player to set (by
finding the correct %) a snow line height they like. This makes for
easier defaults, as it decoupled terrain height from amount of snow.
Maps can never be 100% snow, as we do not have sprites for coastal
tiles.
Internally, this calculates the best snow line height to approach
this coverage as close as possible.
Also the number display is screwed in the settings gui. Same problem as my other patch. Need to compare it to what I did for the other var I did recently (tiles width around rivers to make desert go away) and fix this. This will do to start with.
The video drivers using the OpenGL backend are currently our only
accelerated drivers. The options defaults to off for macOS builds and
to on everywhere else.

By default this setting is set to 2500% normal game speed.
