Simutrans Help Center / Re: increase traffic
O i did use the latest... apparetly the nightly I was using, from just a few days ago, didnt work, but with the one i have now it does...

Extension Requests / Re: Top-down view
Well i agree, it doesnt need functions... But what I lack in de current game is a simple overview of roads/tracks/etc... So if the small navigation map could zoom more, to get a top-view as in the image above, that'd be amazing...

Extension Requests / Top-down view
i think it'd be great to have a top view/map view option, kindof like the small map/navigation window, but then in the main game window, with all the roads/buildings in it... It'd help getting an overview for large cities. Extra helpful if you coudl then also filter out the different ground transportation types: road, rail, etc...

Simutrans Help Center / Re: increase traffic
Thanks, the menu buttons are back now.

But pressing n still only brings up the keyboard help...
so i guess it has to do with what i mentioned earlier, that there s no dialog_tool [27] defined?
Is there a way to do so? It's the latest pak128 nightly...

Simutrans Help Center / Re: increase traffic
o and I noticed something else: in the first lines of the tools section of the menuconf.tab file, section 3 dialogue tools, the list only goes as far as 25, so I guess that is why adding dialog_tool [27]=,n doesn't do anything... I did install the latest pak128 though from the nightly builds...

Simutrans Help Center / Re: increase traffic
I saved it in the original place: /pak128/conf

but actually, I didn't realise: when i add that line to the menuconf.tab file, not only the n doesn't bring up the settings dialog; also my menu/tool buttons are gone...

That settings button works only for a new game.
If playing Standard try key-press n. If the result is a Help-Window, your .exe file is to old so you have to start a new game to correct your problem.
I know, very frustrating.
I think the next release will make it possible to change a value like that in a running game. Nightly builds already do.

Hi, well i got the latest nightly, so how do i do this? Just press the n-key? It actually does bring up the help window...

Simutrans Help Center / increase traffic
Hello,

is there a way to increase traffic in an existing savegame?
I must have forgotten to set the option when starting the game, and now that I am quite far in the game I noticed I have hardly any traffic...
I found an option in settings > display > traffic level, but when I change the number and close the settings window nothing changes.

Thanks,

Pak64 / tramways?
Hello,

I've been wondering: is there any decent tram vehicle for pak64? All I get from the native 64pakset is a horse tramway; something extremely weird...

Also (maybe this should be a new topic though): when I electrify my railways I still only get diesel trains... where can I find electric trains...?


Thanks...

Simutrans Help Center / trains stuck
Hello;
I thought I had figured it out quite well with train signals etc;
and it worked very well until today;
for some reasons all trains get stuck in one station.
I uploaded the sve file (http://simutrans-germany.com/files/upload/newer%205.sve)
as you can see in underground mode,
all trains get stuck in brendten oil pump station.
Does anyone have an idea why?

Thanks!!

Simutrans Help Center / industry chain question
Hello,

I have a little problem with an industry chain;
a pharmacy is connected to a chemiocal plant,
and the goods should be shipped first by train, then plane, then truck...
All transport etc... are set up and connected,
but for some reason the train doesn't take any of the goods (boxed goods),
although everything is connected correctly...
Is there any reason this can happen???

thanks,

Simutrans Help Center / organise map
Hello,

I might have a silly question: is there a way to move a factory to another place?
Or is it possible to prevent simutrans from building stuff in certain areas?
I haven t got a logic reason,
except that i wanted to keep some land free...


thanks,

Simutrans Help Center / Re: paper mill
thanks. I didn't know... I thought it does that automatically.
Well I connected the factories, and the tree plantation also lists the paper mill as consumer,
but for some reason the cargo train stop next to it only lists goods for other factories,
but not for the paper mill. So the train remains empty...

Simutrans Help Center / Re: paper mill
Thanks. But what does that mean?
I am sending all necessary goods to the plant.
But for some reason the connections between the paper mill and the suppliers and customers aren't shown in the plant specs and those of the suppliers...

Simutrans Help Center / Re: paper mill
Hello, thanks.
well that worked;
now the only thing is that for some reason the chain isn't working;
I deliver wood, but it just stays on the train;
and the paper mill isn't producing anything...

does anyone know what the problem might be?
thanks.

Thanks,
