[Patch] timeline for powerlines May 13, 2010, 08:23:08 pm Intro/retire dates are defined for powerlines already. However, only one powerline object is used all the time. This patch enables the use of more powerline objects (for different times, different types etc). Quote Selected

Re: [Patch] timeline for powerlines Reply #3 – May 13, 2010, 09:50:03 pm This was on my todo list for four year (since I had the japanese power lines.) With the new power line patch, different capacities might be possible too. Quote Selected

Re: [Patch] timeline for powerlines Reply #5 – May 14, 2010, 06:20:54 am incorporated with revision 3276.You (as pak authors) can differentiate between different levels of powerlines with the help of the topspeed: by default powerlines are built on top of other powerlines with lower topspeed (as it is for ways).

Re: [Patch] timeline for powerlines Reply #6 – May 14, 2010, 07:45:59 am Does this timeline also include substations as well as the powerlines themselves? Quote Selected
Re: [Patch] timeline for powerlines Reply #7 – May 14, 2010, 08:25:14 am It doesn't look that way... Quote Selected

Do you mean these transformer stations? Then the answer is no. Quote Selected
Re: [Patch] timeline for powerlines Reply #9 – May 14, 2010, 10:46:00 am Yes, that is what I meant. Is there a plan to allow a timeline for these too, or am I just being greedy now? Quote Selected
Re: [Patch] timeline for powerlines Reply #10 – May 14, 2010, 10:56:19 am That would be a rather difficult undertaking. Right now, dat/pak-system-wise PowerSource/Dest are misc-objects, which means they can carry only information about names and authors, and have a continuous list of images. Any attempt to create intro/retire dates etc would mean reworking the system. The changes I committed lately were rather small changes (no heavy changes in makeobj). Quote Selected
Re: [Patch] timeline for powerlines Reply #11 – May 14, 2010, 11:33:03 am OK. I'll cope I don't think it's a major priority. Quote Selected
Re: [Patch] timeline for powerlines Reply #12 – May 14, 2010, 09:17:06 pm The biggest problem are currently crossings between different powerlines. They are really not matching. Quote Selected
