Re: new map: Moz&Mal - exports economy

The instructions say to haul a commodity 10 years in a row. However, if you hall at least 1 load a year for 10 years or more, then stop hauling that commodity the scenario sets loads hauled back to zero.

Re: Kingdom of Tara

Unless I'm doing something wrong; The event "cities unconnected" checks to see if the 4 required citied are connected at the end of 20 years. If any one is unconnected it sets "game lost" to true. However when checking Luz for connection it asks if the connection is "true&qu...

Re: Great Southern RR crash

I finally had time to mess around to see if I could get the scenario working for me. I followed Sugus's success and install a bunch of locos. It works! At least I can save the game without a crash. Haven't gone any further than that.
Thanks all - especially Sugus

Great Southern RR crash

Whenever I save Great Southern RR (either manually or automatically) it crashes back to the desktop. Even trying to save immediately after starting the game. I have not tried going past the first year (by turning off auto save). Anyone have any ideas of what I have wrong? RRTIII v 1.06 XP-Pro sp3 th...

Iron Czar Questions

Dug out an old scenario, "Iron Czar". Have a couple of very unimportant questions that I still haven't figured out. 1) You can buy rights to build in Korea - where IS Korea? I don't find it on the map (but I have been accused of keeping my eyes shut more than once). 2) If you merge with &q...

Problem in Tharesia

Don't know what is happening. I get to around $1,140,000K in lifetime industry profit and suddenly the Status page reports a negative number ($-1,781M) while the Income Statement page is showing a positive $2,227,928K. Evidently the win event gets its info from the status number because it will not ...

Re: Age Of Steam V-Pheonix Rising For Your Review

Finally - gold in expert with 5 AIs. Just pulled it out in the last year. William, your "Age of Steam" scenarios are by far the most enjoyable of any I have played (which, I think, is all of the ones in English). You said this is the last in this series. I hope it will not be your last ser...

Re: Hauling Freight

After several bad starts (4-5 years each) I managed a Gold in 21 years, but playing on "Medium". Will try later on "Expert". Ports supplying materials were important. Built corresponding industries & hauled finished products to markets. Only bought rights to a couple of the l...

The first time I played, after a point (probably where I started making a profit) the company cash was reduced (by a bunch) at the end of each year. The special dividend accounting in the status window would be increased by that amount. However, after the special dividend account reached $50M in the...

While you guys are fixing stuff...

I have trouble with the credit for the special dividend disappearing or not being applied.

I didn't have any luck figuring what was wrong, but then again I'm just a player - get lost making scenarios

Thanks
