Help required with Creating Custom Maps

Post by Khedhre » Mon Apr 28, 2008 4:00 pm

Hi everyone,

I've been playing the game for a while and have recently turned my hand to modding maps. I used the editor that came with patch 1.10 it all goes well until I play, then my cities don't upgrade to accept food or goods etc, so many of the maps industries become useless.

I've seen people talking about guides on wiki and here, but I can't find any.

Could someone please point me in the direction of a decent guide or take the time to answer a few xml questions for me?

I'd be eternally greatful, and could finally get my maps good enough to upload...

Thanks

Khedhre

In Talk I have a thread caled 'Map Making 101'. Construction Set has some material in it. Railroads! Wiki should be read top to bottom.

The growth of a town depends upon what is delivered to it. Basicly they take and give Mail and Passengers. You can set them to accept other final Goods depending on thier size.

Post on this thread what you have and I or another can look it over and give you some advice. People here are always drueling for a new map.
I'm correct 97% of the time..... who cares about the other 4%....

in the RRT_Cities_scenarioName.xml you can tell the game scenario which products will be sold and accepted at which cities, towns, etc.
