 Where can I find this blue terminal to 128?

Sorry, it's only in pak64.

My projects... Tools for messing with Simutrans graphics. Graphic archive - templates and some other stuff for painters. Development logs for most recent information on what is going on. And of course pak128!

We have a few things about ships to 128,a few days ago I've found the Emma Maersk to 128 and a super oil tanker,but only this.

Can Emma Maersk be the super oil tanker?

Yes I have this two ships,but I want to find new ships and terminals and is very hardous to find this.

Thanks very much Zeno =]

Edibola:
I agree with you
I think there should be a bigger dock for Emma :P

Yes,I like so much ships and always I look for new things about this,but is more easy to find trains and buses,ship is a very important kind of transportation,and we have a litle about this.

there used to be bigger docks in game (i remember them, just i can't recall either they were for pak 128 or 64). They were much longer (2, 3 or even 4 tiles). We should make new ones (they were from MHz, IIRC).

fabio, those longer docks are in Pak 64. (Can be longer to 4 tiles with a crane for containers...)
Would anyone get the Pak 128 version pak-ed and making them official for those Pak 64 standard docks did?

PS I also wonder with ships, but I prefer ships in a convoy...
(or if the Makeobj supported, ships with mixed cargo types-
Cooled goods can be also loaded on a container(boxed goods) ship...I suppose.)

(After beloved Vilvoh's post: Yes, sure, can do it that way-but it could be done by coding works-
making the ships linked in a convoy--like cars of a train--tested with successful outcomes.)

You can already do this using barges, can't you?

Sojo made some tests for pak96 in that sense, dividing a big ship into several parts and coding them as a gigant ship, so I guess you could make something similar in the graphic part. Indeed, you can paint several small ships and link them as a convoy through the dat file constraints.

On the other hand, I think it's already possible to create ships with mixed cargo types, coding the extra units of the convoy as hidden units, similar to what is done with the p****enger and mail ships. The problem is that they appear at the shipyard menu.

In really the full container vessels can transport dry goods into the container boxes and cooled goods into the reefer containers.So I think ,is necessary a ship that can transport this two kind of goods.

<-----Like this

I see in a video of the simutrans PAK 64 a wonderful blue docks with cranes to container,we do not have this one to 128?

I combine 100's of small docks to form one large dock. Compared to them Emma looks small or like in real life

How about adding the GTS Finnjet, it was the fastest, longest and largest car ferry in the world and only one powered by gas turbines.

Ships like the GTS Finnjet are interesting, sure. Did you paint it already?

At the moment there are 7 p****enger ships with a capacity of 1000+, mostly fuel driven. Starting from 1911 or so. Then there are another 4 p****enger ships: 2 Sailing ships (60 & 212 P****), 1 steamer (310) and 1 Hovermarine (200). Imo the coolest ships you could paint are smaller fuel driven ferries (50 - 1000 p****engers). These ferries would really help to connect sights on small Islands, or production sites, or smaller connections.

Nope, I don't paint I come with ideas  :D

Yeah smaller ships do come in handy, their might be some smaller ships as addons.
