+title: OpenTTD 1.11.0-beta1
+author: LordAro
+---
+
+So it's a bit later than usual, but I have the the pleasure of announcing the first beta of our 1.11 release series!
+It's turned into a bit of a beast of a release.
+Special thanks to TrueBrain, who's basically turned OpenTTD into his full-time job over the last few months and has helped squash lots of bugs.
+
+In this release, among many other things, are:
+* Lots of improvements to MacOS support, including support for the shiny new Apple M1 (and also Windows ARM, but that's rather less exciting).
+* Towns are better at building, now being able to build tunnels, and also knowing not to build bridges & tunnels that immediately dead-end.
+* An option to automatically remove signals when placing rail.
+* Inflation is now applied consistently from 1920 to 2090, regardless of start year. So your starting value of money might look a bit different.
+* Tweaks to several default settings to improve playability for new players.
+* Improvements to several GUI windows, and making renaming & goto-location buttons have a consistent location and name where used.
+* Usual array of tweaks and changes and bug fixes.
+
+As ever, see the changelog for further details.
+The usual titlegame competition will be announced on the forum shortly.
+
+Any rumours about hovercraft are categorically false.
