Sign cheats are a number of new in-game cheats which are activated by placing a sign and naming it Cht: <name of the cheat> <parameters>.  If  the cheat was successful, the sign name will show a tick mark at the end, otherwise it will show an X mark.  Instead of the colon `:' you may also use a semi-colon `;' to accomodate players of the French DOS version which cannot generate a colon because of the keyboard mapping.

For a verbose description of the sign cheats, please see [[SignCheatsdetailed|Sign Cheats (detailed]]).

Normally, the sign cheats do not cost anything, and can be used at any time.  With the cheatscost option however, some of the cheats (at this time, only  "Tracks", "Renew" and "<nowiki><nowiki>PlantTrees</nowiki></nowiki>")  will cost the appropriate amount of money.  In that case, you can append a question mark to the cheat, in order to see how much it  will cost before actually using the sign cheat. For example Cht: Tracks 2 ? will tell you how much it would cost to convert your tracks to Maglev technology.

Once a sign has been placed and activated, i.e. if it has the tick mark or X, you can immediately remove or rename it again, the cheat will still remain active.

A note to international players: The English DOS versions of TTD use a QWERTY keyboard even if your local keyboard layout is different.  If you have trouble finding the `:' key, it's to the right of the L key.  Press shift and the key right to the L, and there you go!

It may also swap some keys, depending on your local layout.  If many cases, y and z will be swapped.  So please check if what you've typed is what appears in the sign name.
