Description

This switch allows the creation of more Town buildings than Transport Tycoon originally allowed. Before this switch was implemented, if a Graphics author wanted to change the appearance of Town buildings, they would have to overwrite the graphics already in use with their custom graphics. Since this switch was implemented, however, graphics authors can now add more buildings, instead of replacing the ones already exsisting. This means that there can be a much greater variety of buildings in Towns and Cities, and the game does not seem so repetitive.
