Simutrans Repository Debian based


Independent Simutrans Repository for Debian based Linuxlink


Since Simutrans is a third party software, it will not be updated after the release of a Linux distribution. This means that obsolete versions of Simutrans are often included in the distribution's proprietary software package sources. This mainly affects LTS versions of distributions and Linux distributions based on them. Another point is that in the package sources a maximum of 3 graphic sets are included. These are pak64, pak128 and pak128.Britain.

For this reason, an independent package source has been set up for Simutrans. Since this is intended for a variety of Linux derivatives, not all rules of all Linux derivatives are considered. Therefore, the installation path deviates from the usual requirements.

In addition to Simutrans, Simutrans-Extended is also included in the package source. Simutrans-Extended is an enhanced version of Simutrans.
There are currently no release versions of Simutrans-Extended. Therefore, the update is only sporati- cally at longer intervals.

Furthermore, the server variant (posix) of Simutrans / Simutrans-Extended is included. This has no user interface and therefore requires fewer resources.
