Re: American Empire

Are you using an 8 or 20 row abacus? Look at your resourses. How much total RAM? How much free RAM? How large is your virtual memory? Are you paging the game in and out of your virtual memory?

New rail car ... the expanded car

Using an EXPANDED rail car: 1. One car represents up to ten rail cars ... 50% to 1000% full. 2. Cars over 100% double the wieght for each 100% ... i.e., an additional car 3. A full RRT3 train with 8 cars could represent 80 cars of goods. 4. Engines would need to rebalanced. Just a crazy thought. Sha...

Games created with historic theams should have events randomized

Game designers creating new games using historic events should roll the dice at the begining of the game and use offsets for the events. For example: everyone knows qwhen the stock market crashed in 1929, Planning for it takes little effort and actually destroys the fabric of the game. Creating an o...

Re: What Should Be Included in Next Version of RRT. Should There Be One.

Simply put there is ZERO ROI for a new RRT game or version.

With the plethora of lousy railroad simulations driving the avid railroad gamers to buying their own short lines. That doesn't leave too much cash on the table to buy the next best lousy railroad simulation.

Re: Age Of Steam IV-Blue Streak For Your Comment and Review

Well I have not attempted a trial on the V3-1.7z yet, but have a question to that of V3-1. All the territories which require a monetary access, the figure is $1,000,000K. NOW, that is a lot of money. Actually, it is $1B, and I have no idea of how a player can accummulate that amount to gain access....

It does convey the sense that the rail lines had grown up haphazardly and were in need of someone to re-organize them for efficiency.
