Re: Some thoughts and tests on cargo trains
The only time I've ever seen that was when I had two small resource stations served by one train. That will do better than having two Norris collect from each seperatly. But once both grow to medium you'll lose resources.

Some thoughts and tests on cargo trains
I've toyed around a bit today with how well the different cargo trains perform. I used the NW Scenario 1901-1930 so I have a solid 30 years and a fixed deadline I won't miss while playing guitar hero as the game clock ticks down. First I started out with a large coal mine right next to a power plant...

Re: Pirate Tactics Revisited.
"your" hasn't been to this forum since you replied, might want to wait a little with accusations like this: As you had no rebuttals to anything else that was said, you confirm it all with your silence. as a matter of fact, he hasn't read this forum since he posted this little gem almost a month ago.

Re: Pirate Tactics Revisited.
Sun Tzu is mostly about deception and gathering knowledge about your enemy. Oh, and fighting. In RR, most information is available in the statistics and you don't fight.

Re: I can't add certain stations to my train sometimes.
I've actually watched my trains during long curves and they're going max speed -1mph. I'm playing on the Mogul now. Train behaviour is not affected by that difficulty setting, right?

Re: I can't add certain stations to my train sometimes.
well money usually is not a problem. I assume the only difference on train table difficulty is infinite money to buy stuff? This one is my most recent game. I think I started at Salisbury, I threw up tracks up to Portsmouth and London right away and quadded the Terminal as to prevent the gordian tra...

Re: I can't add certain stations to my train sometimes.
I don't have that savegame anymore, was just an autosave but I stumbled into the same problem again. So assuming I want my train to go from A to B, I need to lay some short tracks like the red ones here for it to work http://i27.tinypic.com/10hu55e.png ? The fact that the train goes through a 3-trac...

Re: I can't add certain stations to my train sometimes.
I nuked everything and rebuilt it, I keep getting the same error with Nuremberg. What I don't get is if the Depot isnt connected to the main railway properly, why could I start a line Nuremberg -> Leipzig?

I can't add certain stations to my train sometimes.
I've had this problem with both 1.0 and 1.1 Sometimes I can play an entire game without it appearing but now it surfaced again and I just wasted so much money on a connection that now is useless. Here's a picture of the issue http://i26.tinypic.com/6gltex.png If the train starts from Rostock Depot, ...
