Alias Commands

Aliases are handy shortcuts for one or more command. You can define aliases ingame or in one of the scripts files (located in <OpenTTD installation>/scripts directory). Simply add an alias by typing "alias <whateveryouwant>". If the alias needs spaces, remember to enclose it in double-quotes. If your alias needs double-quotes, use single quotes as subsitution. Like this: alias echo " 'hallo b' %A". Aliases can use the arguments typed in after them.

• "%A - %Z" substitute arguments 1 t/m 26
• "%+" lists all parameters keeping them seperated
• "%!" also lists all parameters but presenting them to the aliased command as one argument
• ";" allows for combining multiple commands (eg alias startgame "load 5; pause")
