Smr Simple!

Although I am not sure, the missing audio files could be tied to the random event crashes. check the Audio log to see what it says. We still have 3 files that we do not know what they are tied to.

While doing some XML repairs I discovered 4 files that where listed in the Audiodefines.XML but not on my system. Now since nobody to my knowledge has ever messed with the audio files, I suggest that people check to see if these files exist on their system. The file names are: smallclink buyoutgood ...

From the discussion on this topic before, my guess would be that you are going to have to go with something that looks like City Iron Work and City Steel Works. where the ratio would be one. on each. The coal on delivery gets divided between the two and four cars of coal become 2 cars of steel and 2...

Doc - Well the reactor could increase speed on all electric trains as well be able to pull freight. Excess power from the reactor would be added to the grid. This may get people to use it in western maps. Plus the advantage of higher speeds. On the subject of Rift, I will PM you some info that I hav...

its also one of the 'enabling' ideas for San Martino, I should note.

Well there you go Doc.

OK, If you can't get your head out of the train. Then you have the electric motors for electric trains along with the grid and you have diesel engines. then you have the Maglev and its derivatives. Redesigns on rail cars that allow them to transport cars standing on end instead of car carrier style ...

Yes and Elevators made skyscrapers possible which used more steel that increased more output. Telephones increase copper consumption as well as wood for poles like electric. All of these things made cities grow which required more manufactured goods and food. Which of course allowed for the purchase...

Well they did cover that topic in the Berkshaw malleable rails patent. Some other interesting patents where created during this period like the elevator which allowed for skyscrapers to exist, Telephone is another. Let me do a quick search to see what things can be added. Ill just edit this message ...

Yes it is an addiction and this the location of Railroaders Anonymous. Meeting are held on a continuous bases. We work hard to find new ways to distract ourselves, but we have become addicted to the game and the punishment that it provides. The more the merrier. Welcome.

I should have a response for that problem by tomorrow hopefully.

Depending on where the mapper put the data, RRT_Trains on the EXE side of the game or RRT_Trains(MapName).xml on the my games side of the game.

You can always attempt to add a cost line to the Patent.xml. Review the way that industries are base priced and go from their. I think something like <icost>xxxxxxx.xx</Icost> or something like that. What ever, if it crashed restore from the back up you made before the edit. What is the worst that c...

The only difference with SMR is the benefit of throwing the disk against the wall at least once. I believe that SMR can crash just by looking at it. But we are working on ways to correct the problem(s). Firaxis is also waiting so they can take credit for the fix. But as of right now they claim that ...

Overall it is not a bad idea. I would rather see if the SAM project works though. If nothing else we could call it SMR ANTS. It could produce some real challenges form just the original maps. After all everything looks different under a microscope.

Are we sure that the maps have to be square. I do recall that some one was working on a short but wide map, although you do have to force feed the dimensions, like 18x24 or something. Another search into the archives of HOR.
