Let "Mail" Cargo to be more active.

I sometimes use Mail cargo but there is no loading. -.- Can it be MORE ACTIVE?

No. It is well balanced and on purpose.

Have you built mailboxes next to your stops or stations? Those are needed to get any mail. And transporting mail isn't usually profitable if only a couple of towns are connected - you need to have larger networks.

Apparently, you didn't do everything, because mail works.

How about a screenshot or something so we can try and take a guess?

Isaac just locked it... now its the time he can see it. I have NO TIME to capture pictures...

Well, the first three pictures, the van is not loading mail.




but the fourth picture, it loads only two.


The mail route only have 4 stations and is expanding.

PS: To Isaac, LOOK and SEE!

EDIT: Oh darn! I forget to post it in the ohter topic... sigh. I always get problems.

You said in the other thread that you deleted it, which you've done before. So don't get an attitude with me.

One thing that would help greatly:

No emoticons like >:-(

No dramatic ***SIGH***

No bright unreadable colour text

Try posting in Help Requests unless you are VERY sure it should go someplace else, as we have to move most of your topics...

That would be helpful.

And when you ask for help, try giving more informatnio - like the screenshots are helpful.

Speaking of which, I'm ****uming your network is very small. Of course, I'm still guessing, but now that you gave us more information - we know that SOME mail is being loaded, just not very much. That is VERY DIFFERENT from your first post, where you said there was "NO" loading.

SOME loading is different than NO loading. Do you understand why that would make a difference?

So, I should expand the mail route?

Oh and BTW, I just came back from school.

Mail works like p****engers - it has origins and destinations.  Unless you can transport mail all the way from where it is generated to where it wants to go, then you don't get to carry it at all.  If you have a big mail network then, you will get to transport much more mail.

And can I tell that when a building has higher mail level, means more mail given?

That's right the larger the  mail level the more mail is generated from the individual building in question. The more buildings with high mail levels are within a stops catchment area the more mail will be available for collection at that stop.

The mail level is also the same value for the amount of mail the individual building demands.

The p****enger system also works in the same manner just with larger numbers so more p****engers are generated at the buildings.

Oh. And also, if a building has higher p****enger and mail levels, it can get more p****engers and mails. Cool.

THANKS!  ;D
