Re: Latvia (beta)

Thank you, looks like you mean Estonia, not Finland... about ports: I exactly tried to correct their behaviour according to your previous comment. Almost, ok, but still they are not profitable (I mean Riga ports)... I will try to do this again. Juri. Burned though this map in 14 years on expert. I ...

Re: Cold War Colorado for v1.06

Finally finished it. Made all haulage requirements easily, some 2-3 x what was needed. Only got ~550 troops even though I had many dedicated trains for them; they just didn't show up in quantities that allowed me to make the goal. Hopefully your adjustments will help in this respect. I did run acro...

Re: Cold War Colorado for v1.06

As an express cargo, raising the price of Troops will work fine. However, raising the price of Coal long-term will almost certainly result in the price break-out bug: http://hawkdawg.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3981#p41136. Unfortunately those ruin the game a little. :-( You could try with a...

You could add a F era with the automax after the year 20##. Those would look very nice & long!

Re: Well, well, well...

Looking good. IIRC i recommended to u earlier insead of cargo Icons just use different color containers for each cargo. 40' blue on 40' blue for toys. 45' green on 40' yellow for furniture etc

Re: Madagascar Beta

Well things went much better this last time. Fell well short of the coffee hauling goal, just 190 loads. I even put some effort into keeping the plantations supplied with fertilizer and tried to haul the coffee directly to the ports, though a fair bit did get hauled around the map. 546 coffee gener...

Re: Madagascar Beta

Okay, I've tried this one 6 or 7 times now, a few times running all ... I build an upgraded concrete plant @ the start. Then ran a shortline between the quarry & Behola. Big $$$. Sometime later I build a new line from the coal mine to Antananarivo to Tosamina. Then add a steel mill somewhere on...

Re: Madagascar Beta

I built 2 nukes next to the uranium supply depot, and while they were cranking out over 1,000 GW/yr and using all 12 uraniums (6/yr each) during the Boom, when the economy went to Normal, they were eeking out barely 400 GW/yr each. I also built 3 regular electric stations there and shipped coal by ...

Re: Madagascar Beta

:oops:

Wonderful, it looks like my final patch did not successfully save. So I need to do a revision.

Free AEC cash needs to be looked at agian, tires will be less annoying. Plus I've soured on the use of fines. So the power plant fines will go away

Re: Cold War Colorado for v1.06

Only just started playing the map. There was little high-value cargo ready to haul so I went for a cautious industry start. Many farms were discounted at game start. Also, I can buy them anywhere, even in territories that I don't have access to. Main thing I wanted to report was that I selected two...

Re: Setting up routes and cargo

The other thing is selecting cargo which I am not too clear about. If I click on each station in the above example and manage the cargo, I am selecting what I am picking up from that station and is taking to the next. Is that correct? Clarification would be appreciated. Yes and for frieght it picks...
