While I appreciate your work, we'd like to keep things in English in these forums. :) Very few people will be able to read it and right now, you're just creating a double post of the same thing in a different language which just confuses people. This topic will be removed soon. (Mein Deutsche sprach...

Hmm, the more I think about it, the more I feel that the way you can be bought out is actually a very weak part of the game. I have been bought out only once and I remember being pretty ticked-off but at the same time I thought to myself "but I should have moved faster". But in the average game, I n...

Correct, it's not easier as in that it changes the difficulty settings, but it does change how much time you have to 'process' your ideas/strategy. A couple of things to consider: > A first person shooter becomes more difficult when they throw 50 enemies at you at the same time. It can mask the low ...

It's already been explained elsewhere in the forum, but this is a good moment to put it in the Wiki:

Adding information to the Wiki is very easy. While viewing a page, all you need to do is click on 'e...

I have added the Wiki link to the top forum menu. That way we can all reach it easily. I noticed someone laid the foundations, good work. :) We're also running into a rather interesting question rather soon... RK, you asked about the Main Page being empty. Originally I had planned to open up the Wik...

New timescale makes all the difference

After having had a very busy December, I finally got around to play the game again. Barely managed to make the time to play it when it first came out, so you can imagine that it was almost like starting over. First thing I did was 'fix' the timescale. I slowed it down to a quarter of the original an...

There are some small font issues that still need to be corrected, but other than that, we're good to go. :) The location of the Wiki is: http://www.hookedgamers.com/wiki/Railroads This is a general wiki for (hopefully) tons of games in the future, starting with Railroads!

Everything is working. We even managed to make sure that everyone who is a member of the forums, is allowed to edit using their forum login/password. We're getting somewhere. All that is left now is to create the proper skin (while you guys skin trains, we at HG skin sites and software) :) We should...

I'm happy to report that the older version of the Wiki software -is- working now. :) I still need to do quite a bit of testing and customizing, so the battle is won but the war is not over yet. But it's looking good and (unless something really unexpected goes wrong) I expect to have something worki...

About to start a downgrade. Apparently the wiki software with version 1.8.* has some odd incompatibility with newer MySQL and/or PHP versions. 1.7.1 apparently does not have these issues. I'm about to find out. :)

(not much time left in the day, so probably know for sure this weekend)
