Simutrans for Ubuntu

Tim Wintle - June 16th, 2008

There are some arguments that will never end:

Cats Vs Dogs
Linux vs OSX
Emacs vs Vim vs [...]

And of course (in this office at least) OpenTTD vs Simutrans.

I come down on the side of Simutrans, so I was shocked to realise recently that while there was an OpenTTD package in the Ubuntu universe, there wasn’t a really simple way to Simutrans (Looking at Launchpad, this serious issue may be rectified soon)

To help the growing pool of Ubuntu users who don’t want to have to compile from source, or play around in a terminal, I have created a basic .deb package for simutrans – hope others find it useful.
