Hi rsdworker

The Merkur-Xelofino-Design Set isn't a pak set at all. It is an addon-set in which all of our addons are in there which we have made together with Merkur. You must just take the paks and put them into the normal 64.pak set. If you dont want them anymore just search them and delete them. First try the save without any addon but i think it wont go.

Xelofino

You know that you can minimize trees and buildings or make them transparent already, yes?

there isn't meant to be a trolleybus service - I decided to abandon it in favour of street trains

RSDWorker,

thank you for the feedback - I shall have to investigate that when I am in a position to look at the code again.

Steffen,

can you try also setting "quick_city_growth=0"?

Edit: I have just remembered: the "renovation_percentage" is in cityrules.tab, not simuconf.tab. Changing it there should have the desired effect.

Thank you everyone for your feedback, and apologies for the delay in responding: I have just returned from holiday.

I am still away from the computer on which I develop Simutrans, but will look into the crashes when I get back. Can I ask - are the crashes reproducible or idiosyncratic? Is there a particular saved game that will always crash on quitting?

As to the sprawl - this should be solved by setting the "rennovation_percentage" to 33 in the Pak128.Britain-Ex simuconf.tab. I shall in due course release an updated version of Pak128.Britain-Ex for Simutrans 8.x, which will include this change, but, for the time being, editing the simuconf.tab file should produce the same result.

Thank you again for your feedback :-)

I know, I meant that perhaps the 8.0 version config file is different from the previous releases, so it stores more information or the same information organized in a different way. In other words, it's not compatible. That's why I suggested you to remove it. Anyway, if it still displays the error message there must be something else..

Seems to be something from the xml config file. Perhaps you must update it or remove it.

No. It was designed to be in the boats menu because boats go slow anyways and you wouldn't really use boats in an underground station.

PS: It's for the walking people vehicle. If it was on roads then the speedbonus would make it unprofitable.

It's supposed to appear there. Because if you build the underp**** depot you can send out walking groups of p****engers.

The underp**** set appears in the boats menu.

when starting simutrans with options -log 1 -debug 3 it will write into a file the waytype and subtype of all way loaded. Look for the names of the underp****. If subtype is 255 it will be only shown in special menu.

I think that they're trains not trams.

1) They're longer
2) They hold more people
3) They go faster
4) They need full-scale platforms to load and unload p****engers
5) They usually run underground or on a higher level than roads

If a separate category were to be made for Metros then that would work well. I know that I've sometimes had Metros running into Train stations to get better connections, but I've never used them in Tram stations.

I downloaded it fine with IE8 at work this afternoon, but it was incredibly slow.

I've tried with Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. I am supposed just to click in the link to download the file, but I didn't get. Is there anything else that I have to do? If you can send me another link, I'll appreciate it a lot.

I can't download these files. This link http://experimental.[ simutrans [dot] us (site down, do not visit) ]/Simutrans-Experimental-Complete.zip doesn't work. Who can help me?
