You guys might want to note that stating OpenTTD is reverse-engineered is a statement only 1 person actually knows. to my knowledge not even the core developers of OpenTTD know where it came from, as it used to be a one-man project, and the original dev has long since gone.
Evidence of reverse engineering can be seen in OpenTTD 0.1. Functions behave the same way as their assembly equivalents and IDC scripts are present.
I'm the original one-man dev of OpenTTD. I'm not gone. And yes, it was reverse engineered.
glad to have that cleared up :)
