I used to play this a lot with a friend. We made a map called “German Reunification” which simulates the separation until 1989 and subsequent reunification. The map is made from real elevation data and city geocoordinates. https://wiki.openttd.org/en/Community/Scenarios/Real%20World...

This is awesome, but I don't understand the mechanism for simulating partition. Water comes flowing in slowly... Flowing from where? To where?

There's a thin row of tiles on the edge where water will come flowing in, and roundabout 1989-1990 it will flood (=remove) the lighthouses that form the border.
