API

Transport Tycoon API

The api for TT follows a few standard principles:

• Certain routes will return different data based on server
• Every server requires a different url to fetch data from, instead of one standardized url
• Every route uses the /status endpoint

Available servers

Address	Server Name	Additional Information
server.tycoon.community:30120	Server 1	OneSync server, may not be as stable as the other servers
server.tycoon.community:30122	Server 2
server.tycoon.community:30123	Server 3
server.tycoon.community:30124	Server 4
server.tycoon.community:30125	Server 5	Beta server, data could end up being different compared to other servers
na.tycoon.community:30120	Server 6	Despite the na subdomain, these servers are not hosted in NA, and are also European
na.tycoon.community:30122	Server 7
na.tycoon.community:30123	Server 8
na.tycoon.community:30124	Server 9
na.tycoon.community:30125	Server 10

API Keys

TL;DR: Create a new key using /api key new

Add charges using /api key refill (adds 1000 charges for $1M)

The API requires an API Key to access most features.

Each key has a limited amount of API calls (also called charges), which is consumed every time an API call is made using the key. Additional charges can be purchased in-game using the /api key refill command at the cost of $1000 (in-game money) per charge. Any user can generate an API key, this key is said users private key. (make sure you keep it safe!) To generate a key, use the /api key new command in-game. If you already have a key generated, the old one will be deleted and a new one takes its place. When you generate a key for the first time, it will come with some free charges allowing you to test the API for free. The API Key can be copied using the /api key copy command, which will display the key for you to copy.

Privacy related options

As the API has been more and more commonly used, it is now possible to restrict this data, meaning that only your API key will have access to your personal data. In order to restrict access, do /api lock in-game, which will enable these features.

API Endpoints

General notes

• API keys should be sent as headers, like such: X-Tycoon-Key: [api-key]
• Each endpoint here will mention if such a key is required to be used.
• Typically, this data is returned as JSON, unless explicity mentioned.
• Most routes will have a response header called X-Tycoon-Charges, which will give you the amount of charges remaining after the request.

Standard status codes

• 401 Unauthorized - An API key is required for the route
• 402 Payment Required - No API charges remaining
• 403 Forbidden - Invalid API key
• 404 Not Found - Invalid API route
