I think p****engers and goods could plan to take only one line : the fastest to the destination.
I thing this is good idea. But what about vehicles without line? If p****engers choosed a line earlier (even whit longer trip), the bus will depart empty. P****engers can get on bus, but how they know its a better choice?
What are You think about deliver power to city? I do not have complete project, but I thinking about this:
1) placing transformer station next to any city building will bring electricity to whole city 2) electrified city is more likely to grow 3) power consumption depends on city size
Hi. I came from Poznan, Poland. I'm age of 26 this year. My adventure with Simutrans started from version 0.78 or 0.79. (When it was?) Even then it was the best transport sim. IMHO we can full trashcan with all these commercial games.
I played: TTD - many many hours, but now is no chance for return ;] Locomotion - I think its quite good but later in the game you do nothing else but replacing old vehicles :/ Transport Giant - looks good only on screenshots
I'm programmer and maybe one day I will have enough time to help make Simutrans perfect
With new payment system making profitable city transportation (pak128) is a really nightmare. For big city it's only possible by creating many lines to cover most city titles. 6 lines per city? Pretty annoying. Making this optional is very good idea to me.
It would be easy to extend this for waypoint but it would lead to errand trains stuck somewhere just to get to some waypoint like in OPenTTD.
I didn't play OpenTTD (only TTD ), and I don't know this game trains behavior . I think that trains wouldn't stuck if look out placing waypoint after choose signals, just like placing choose signals now. Don't misunderstand me. It's not a critical problem of mine. Just consider possibility include waypoint in track reservations. Thanks for your attention.
Thanks again gerw for your reply. It will be much easier planning big traffic network for me now.
EDIT: OK so my express trains now do not try to reserve all way to next scheduled station. That's plus. But still waiting at choose signal for free platform on their way, even if there is four empty platforms which can be used. The solution with waypoint brings me another idea:
Choose signals works for waypoints too. I mean if train at choose signal has waypoint on its schedule, then try to reserve tracks, and try different ways to that waypoint. This may bring many new possibilities. P**** trough station choosing any free platform for example .
Hi. Few words about choose signals: I like to create large p****anger network with big hub stations, and smaller ones. Local trains stops on small stations, and wait some time for p****engers. Express trains only p****ing trough. In real life, local trains waits at stations letting p**** IC,Express etc. In Simutrans I must to build special track for trains only p****ing trough, or build station on side tracks. Choose signal makes another problem. I have to build separate track for trains which stop at station.
The reason I writing this post is to describe how work choose signal of my dreams : 3 Ideas: 1) Choose signal allow to reserve tracks only to next station, even if that station is not scheduled.
2) Another choose signal aborts track reservation
3) Special signal (something like end-of-choose) that don't allow to reserve track after it and finish reservation
1 and 3 solution allows express trains p**** by choosing free platform, and not stopping at it
I played many games, which has only the imperial metrics. For example, the speed was displayed as mph and I didn't know exactly how fast I drive. I'm used to this, and I still like these games.
After few days only Izzys(regards post were here. So I searched members list by email with my domestic domain (*.pl) and sent a PM (thanks for your response ;]). This was 10 and 11 Dec. There can be more polish player, who haven't an email in profile, and didn't notice this topic I am afraid.
Now I see that there are a few Polish speaking people here. But puzzling - and certainly not enough to justify an own Polish board - those are single word, one times posters posts. I will support your wish (even though I can't read Polish) when it is credible enough that there is a real use for it.
I agree in one hundred percent. But question is: how do we know who came from Poland or not? Everyone write in English :|. I didn't know any polish player on this board until I created this topic.
As you are a group of 5 or six persons, important to promote this proposal would visible activity, e.g. a Polish Translation or the creation of Polish pak objects.
I want to make some translations in future.

One-time posters can change to all-time posters when the polish subforum appear
This is possible I think

I think we will be working to promote Simutrans in Poland, am I true?
Good idea, but how? Maybe create a website? I founded one last days: http://www.simutrans.tnb.pl I suggest to register there, and help to improve that site. It's poor right now.
*Growth is only dependent on p****enger/mail service
I disagree. City needs supplies to grow. Building materials or food (supermarket) for example. Growing dependent of delivered goods is very sensible to me.
It's sounds little odd to me. If I use locomotive with max speed of 100 km/h and use track max 64 km/h with one title which has 110 km/h, I will get speed bonus of 100 km/h.
I don't know is this location is suitable for this topic. If not, sorry for doing mess
I created this topic to know, how many polish players is on forum and is any chance to create polish subforum. So polish players please post that you are here .
I would translate with high pleasure, but my problem is lack of time. I will start translating when I find some. I didn't know about how translations work until now. Thanks for You replies.
Forcing p****engers behavior seems little odd from my view of this simutrans. I believe as one company, they should treat customer evenly. Not prioritizing some of them to the interest of company. Company should work to follow the customer's behavior.
In real life we choose the train depends of hour departure or arrival, time to travel and costs. With no time schedule it is impossible to implements something simulating that. BTW: time schedule would be great ;]
Hi. I have a question. Who makes polish translation? It has many bugs. Most of industries have native names like "open_coal_mine". I tried to insert some names, and I succeeded. Its very easy, and a group of people can do that quickly. I don't have time to do whole translation, but I can do part of work. Few words to polish players:
Czy ktoś zauważył, że w oknie pojazdu mamy "pasażerów wczytane"? To jest coś co mnie od razu poraziło po oczach
Well the thing is, what if I want to use a truck? Should it not work if I plop down a loading bay at the supplier and then plop down a loading bay some distance away and then place a place a goods station building beside that?
I don't know what do you mean exactly. You want to pick up goods from station by trucks instead of trains? Yes it will be work.
Goods changes vehicles like p****engers. Simply station should be enough.
EDIT: In pak128 maybe it is nessesary to build warehouse, when you using simple platform (which not accept goods without additional buildings or platforms)
), and I don't know this game trains behavior . I think that trains wouldn't stuck if look out placing waypoint after choose signals, just like placing choose signals now.
