Just to make sure we don't forget: the suggestion made on IRC: why don't we do this via a GameScript, which we ship with the titlegame? https://irclogs.thegrebs.com/openttd/2021/09/02#16:37 for more context |

Here's my own test for the features: This will probably need a little bit of cleanup before potential merge. (Even if the "GS titlegame animation" is implemented, it would still need a fix for the logo disappearing when panning the screen.) |

I have written a GS to help make these signs. RIght now only available here: https://github.com/nielsmh/IntroGameTool (This comment was edited, before it had an attachment of a very early version of the GS.) |

Motivation / Problem
The title screen is boring when it's just the same thing showing all the time!
Also, being able to show off more of a large built-up map can be a good teaching opportunity for new players.
Description
Add a sign command language to describe how to cycle different views while on the main menu.
Limitations
The "pan" and "follow vehicle" cause constant full screen updates, might be painful for slow machines.
Wishlist item: Split screen into two/four separate viewports that show different views.
