$ openttd -n ${host}:${port}#${player_name} -p ${password}

try on your machine

This command is used to run the OpenTTD game client with specific connection parameters.

Here is a breakdown of the command and its options:

openttd: This is the command to execute the OpenTTD game client.
-n: This option is used to specify a network connection.
${host}:${port}: These are placeholders for the hostname and port number to connect to. You will need to replace them with the actual values. The ${host} refers to the server's hostname or IP address, and ${port} refers to the port number the server is operating on.
#${player_name}: This is a placeholder for the player name. You will need to replace ${player_name} with your desired player name. It is preceded by # to indicate it as part of the connect string.
-p: This option is used to provide a password for the server, if required.
${password}: This is a placeholder for the password of the server. You need to replace ${password} with the actual password required to connect to the server.
