AROP ?

Hawk, have you heard anything from AROP in the last year? I hope he is doing well.

I have been playing AROP's Atlantic, Ohio & Missisippi and I found a few problems with it.

Re: Rainy Days in British North America

I just tried this one again, had a decent start -- 8 coals which quickly mushroomed to 12, decent lumber mill in Montreal, but the textile mill there was already priced at over $2 million at game start. If the Textile Mill was upgraded $2M is a good price ... IF not then look to where the wool/cott...

Re: Atlantic, Ohio & Missisippi

AROP, I looked at the GOLD/Silver/Bronze conditions. If you select to go for SUPER GOLD and don't make it before 1935 the game will trigger a SILVER WIN . You made a choice when winning GOLD but GV1 is not tested in Silver or Bronze like I think you meant to do. GOLD: EFFECTS: Choice 2 (Go for SUPER...

Re: RT3 V1.07 Patch ideas

Is RT3 still in copyright protection? If not then a decompiler should do the trick. ( wrote one, in BASIC, for the Atari 800/6502 many moons ago and Atari used it to win a suit against a copycat game developer ... their "NEW" game was a knock off of Centipedes called Millipedes. (BTW I was...

Re: Is there a CHART that tell when items become available?

I believe that you need to have the track-laying cursor actually over the water you are attempting to cross to get the "Invalid Position Over Water (Suspension Bridges Unavailable)" message in the first place. Either way, if you get that message, you should also get the notice I posted. Y...

Re: RT3 V1.07 Patch ideas

I see you mentioned a few things about the AI. Well, a minor thing I would like to see, and something that I am not sure why it wasn't done (it may have been too hard, but I don't know) in the 1.06 patch is to force the AI to always build large stations. Of course, the AI could do with a complete o...

You do realise that the stuff you want to code has been defeating skilled coders for years now? I'm a self taught programmer ... 8/16 bit processors mostly in assemble. I had to figure out a whole bunch of crap to get the jobs done. I've always used the thought: "Where there's a will there's a...

I think .... oh-oh watch out! That I played a game where you had to build industries to get the demand up to make a profit.

Re: Company Cash

The AI buy/sell on Start-of-Month and so do all of your OVERHEAD adjustments.

It's just coincidence that you SEEM to see them as being connected to AI moves.

What makes ELECTRIC PLANTS profitable?

I'm playing a game which requires the generation of 10,000 GWh of electricity. The game provides plenty of COAL but the POWER PLANTS are all running in the RED>

I'm nt using electric trains, not allowed by scenerio.

So what produces demand that I can buiild?

Sounding like a nooob ...
