Re: Changing Scenario Start Dates?

ah, sweet. I guess that's a nice alternative.

Could it literally be any number or just 128?

Re: Changing Scenario Start Dates?

I'll try that - didn;t work.

For more clarification I'm sure some of you are running this map. Its the LARGE UK MAP (UKLargeMP) downloaded off this site in the maps section.

Great map but years go by too fast, so I wanted to start in 21 since I really enjoy the 19th century time period of rails.

Changing Scenario Start Dates?

How do you mod a scenario to start earlier like in 1821?

I change the numbers in the RRT_scenario_User file with iStartEra EndEra line but it doesn't work. Only the starting up window shows it but in the actual game it still starts from the original date the scenario was designed for. Any ideas?

Sigh* I'm ready to give up. I tried eliminating the industries to less than 20 then to less than 15. Here is the thing: whenever I start up with no AIs I DON'T crash but whenever I do I crash, regardless of the number of industries. I even tried auto placing them with the editor. Does this mean anyt...

mmm, well so I loaded it up as a new map and placed everything manuelly finished it then loaded it up --> crash at building up steam. God this is proving to be impossible. I know all the goods and industries files are correct. Is there only certain number of industries and goods you can have in a map?

Hey, so I went back to the editor and after placing these industries and pressing save it said: could not save onto RRT.industries make sure it is not read only.

Why is that file read-only? and how do I make it possible to edit?

Yes of course, I had to do some research to place the locations. Did you know there was Oil in New Jersey? Rockefeller's Standard Oil Co. was apparently based in NJ mining it. Sheep would would be good representation of cotton in the south, than gold would really only be in Neveda, Arizona, and Cali...

Hey, Took your advice and now I got the cities placed. Northeast is pretty crowded now. Added: Provindence, Trenton-Princeton-Camden, Scraton and seperate Washington and Baltimore. I started it up and noticed that only the starting players in the cities/towns had a chance at all. The ones that start...

This is a GREAT MAP!! I love it. BUT I really hope to edit a little bit. So far it seems if you have 4 AIs they start out in Omaha, Santa Fe, New York, and Norfolk. I would like to change either Santa Fe or Norfolk to Philly the HEadquarters of Pennsylvania Railroad. Arguably Philly was as important...
