Feature Request: Increase maximum vehicle limit beyond 5000

[laci8405]

I would like to kindly request an increase of the maximum vehicle limit in OpenTTD.
The current hard limit of 5000 vehicles can be restrictive on large maps, especially for road vehicles.

I fully understand that higher vehicle counts may increase CPU load, but modern gaming PCs can easily handle more. Therefore I would like to ask whether it would be possible to raise the limit to at least 7500, or ideally up to 10 000 vehicles.

This would not need to change the default setting — the default can remain whatever the developers consider safe.
The important part is that players with powerful hardware should have the option to increase the limit if they want to.

In short: let the player decide what is too heavy for their CPU.

Thank you very much for considering this request.

That's right, better many times than never.
