ending_year is by default set to 2051, and can be changed only by console command 'patch ending_year xxx'

As far as I remember, ending_year should be set everytime new game is started to ending_year = starting_year + 100
Maybe there was some decision, so this is no longer valid

Reported version: 0.6.0-beta1
Operating system: All

As we had a talk at IRC-
it should be 101 years (1.1. 1950 - 31.12.2050)
and as this patch doesn't update starting year when starting from a scenario, it should be possible to set it in the scenario editor

(further changes, like setting the ending year in the Generator menu is possible - but not likely to come before 0.6)

Another attempt... (Concept)
This time I replaced ending_year with playtime. Hope the results will be nicer.
Ideas and comments would be nice.

Aside:
- A nice way of comparing the different playlengths in Singleplayer will be needed.
- There should be an option to lock the variable during game_mode.

The graphics (newspaper) kinda requires that the highscore is shown in the end of 2050 (rather 1-1-2051). So technically the only place to use it is in network games and then you must reset it each and every time you start a new game.

So I'd vote for just removing it completely and "hardcode" 2051.

Well graphics aren't problems for me ;)

Hardcoding is nice, but somehow it reduces the game a bit.

The highscore thing should be reworked, since its broken by design (no stable time dependance)...somehow.
Maybe the rework shall be included in the gamebalance rework.

andythenorth closed the ticket.

Reason for closing: Won't implement

Flyspray clean up: more than 5 years old, and not obvious what should be done with this next, so closing. Game 'ends' in 2051, and changing it is not a current goal for OpenTTD. :) If this offends, discuss with andythenorth in irc. Thanks.
