Another noobish question ;D
How do you get more population and thus make your cities grow? In the 'Rogaland' challenge topic I saw some huge villages, but at the beginning they we're really small.

You have to transport p****angers, post and goods. If you transport a lot of them, then the cities grow faster.
Look at the city-dialog, there is a number for city-growing between the ().
Some quick tips:
- Cities will only grow if almost all of them are connected, but you should start with serving denser areas (city centers) and tourist attractions.

thanks :) This'll help me out :p
Some industries add p****engers (noticeable amounts) as well. The steel mill with 105 is really good to connect - if its workers come from more cities, it's a m****ive helper. Apart from that, brewery and supermarket have high levels too.
Thanks VS, but when I connect the supermarket in Sandnes and that Steel Mill no p****enger travel to them :x

Hi
Ive looked at your save. The supermarket in not connected. Bus stops reach out two tiles in each direction..just one short of connecting to the supermarket. To prove this..demolish a house next to the bus stop (coordinates 225,184) then build a post office. As you do this you will see the supermarket description change to include the connection to your station.
Those trains are profitable! Might try one of those. Does it matter that its not on good tracks..that it doesnt reach its full speed? I believe the speed bonuses in standard simutrans dont check that sort of thing .
