How does this compare to a previous port? <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;olydis.medium.com&#x2F;roller-coaster-tycoon-in-the-browser-ef6a340bced8" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;olydis.medium.com&#x2F;roller-coaster-tycoon-in-the-brows...</a> I&#x27;m curious if the author ran into the same challenges.

It doesn&#x27;t list any scenarios when I go to create a new game.<p>Note: when it is loading and asks &quot;Select your RCT2 data path Pick your RCT2 Data Directory&quot; it actually wants you to pick the parent directory containing Data&#x2F;

So what&#x27;s the use case for running it in your browser other than just for the sake of it? Would it be possible to host the game files on a server and then load the game in a browser on another system?

Emscripten&#x27;s user agent (browser) Javascript is quite cryptic and was rather difficult to adapt Emscripten-compiled WASM to custom web apps. (Had to look at Emscripten example web app.) Congrats.

Hmm, since it runs in the browser, I wonder why they didn&#x27;t put it on github pages (github.io)?<p>Or to put it differently, if I need to compile it first, what is the advantage over the desktop version?
