Listings include version history, dependency tracking, and community comments, and the homepage links to a 5mods Discord server. Some parts of the site may require an account. Users can submit text, comments, images, videos, and other content; submissions may be publicly accessible, and the terms grant the site a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, modify, and distribute them. The site may moderate or remove content. Its privacy policy allows anonymous visits and says personal identification information is collected when voluntarily submitted. Cookies and third-party interest-based advertising are used, and the service is provided as is.

BaNaNaS is a free content service for OpenTTD, offering downloadable game content through its website and the OpenTTD client. Its catalog covers base graphics, sounds and music, NewGRFs, AIs and AI libraries, game scripts and their libraries, scenarios, and heightmaps. Listings can show item names, latest versions, upload dates, licenses, and project sites when provided. The service gives access to the latest content files and retains older versions so save games that use them can be loaded. Users are directed to download content through OpenTTD’s built-in content downloader. Dependency tracking is available. BaNaNaS is described as a volunteer project. Uploading requires users to read the terms and sign in via GitHub; contributors must be authors of the material and use a license compatible with its source material. Uploaders grant the OpenTTD team rights to distribute the latest content centrally and through the website, and to retain older versions. OpenTTD says session cookies are used for authenticated areas such as BaNaNaS, and that it does not use functional or third-party cookies.
