Yes, not even a week after releasing 2.0, development has begun on the next 
version of TTDPatch, and I've released 2.0.1 alpha 1, as usual in the 
source code directory: http://www.ttdpatch.net/src/

In addition to making many experimental features "real" features (see 
below), there are several new ones.  Oskar has added a new "enhancegui" 
feature: transparent station signs.  Instead of a solid colour sign with 
black texts, the game will show station signs as simply the text without a 
sign.  You can turn this on with bit 4 (value 16) for "enhancegui".

Csaba has introduced a new way of calculating the performance score of 
vehicles based on their profit, which can be enabled with "newperformance 
on" (-Xp).  More details can be found in his message to the general mailing 
list at http://lists.ttdpatch.net/ttdpatch/200309/msg00010.html .

Another great feature by Csaba allows you to have the vehicle lists sorted 
by various properties, such as age, profit, consist number and so 
on.  Enable it with "sortvehlist on" (-Xv), and change the sort order by 
clicking on the new bottom right button in the vehicle list window.

Enjoy!
