OpenTTD AIs and Game Scripts • Re: What's holding back development of new AI API's?

The API gets upgraded regularly.

OpenTTD v15 was released 2026-01-01, and API 15 is older than that based on my observation, therefore I assume API version is unrelated to openttd version. It is at version 15 since I started working on AI (Oct 2025), and API 16 has no additions since then.

Is there any particular functionality you're missing?

Yes there were few things I wished API existed for, however now I forgot what that was, but I'll stumble upon that again for sure.

I do recall one thing that is missing, there's no API to rename depots or set new name for them, we get default generated name and have to stick with that. Also depots are treated as normal tiles, there is no special functionality for depots whatsoever not just name change.

There is one recent thread about determining if company is human player: viewtopic.php?t=92744 An API for this would be good addition as well.

But where should API proposals be made? in this subforum I suppose? because github issues are closed for suggestions.
