Gotcha- I do the same- but it just dont sound right as "Deisel"

A small suggestion concerning cargos: Rename "Deisel" to "Fuel" this makes more sense as it would cover everything from home heating oil to gasoline and kerosene, and of course Deisel fuel.

Looks akin to Rhubarb pie.

Thanks Wolverine. I found that making industry purchase@ +70% all rail cost -90% AND rail maintenance - 90% the AIs' will finally expand at a simialr rate as a human player.

Thanks Hawk! I have about a dozen scenarios that are all 80% complete. Getting the last bugs worked out takes a while. I am focusing on my Southern Pacific 1.06 redux , which involves inheriting a Hotel in New Orleans and some money, and some "worthless" real estate in a small unknown town...

Shall we ponder the difficulties of raising Boneless Skinless Chickens now?

There are some maps with ports placed inland-on rivers-not "water"-do the makers paint "water"- place the port- then paint it back to land?

Here's an interesting observation. Working on my current scenario using script to set production levels of some resources to zero until a trigger event , I had set Logs production -%100. I observed that the logging camps which were gong to have robust production (above the stated 2 per year) still p...

LOL- Nope, no "Hemp" cargos stopping at my station these days.

I am making this thread to discuss, ask questions , take comments concerning, and make announcements about things relating to my personal projects in an effort to keep all this information in one place.

I noticed, reading through the posts here, a question concerning maximum building #. According to the 1.06 read me it is 88.

A current scenario I am working on involves using "Troops" as "Workers" and scripting areas(territories) to have increased production based on the number of "Workers" delivered to them. Also am using "Weapons" as "Equipment" (Mining. Logging, and Agr...

Thanks for the info WP, I appreciate it! I am concentrating on getting out a "new" (redux of the SP poptop map with complete new script) 1.06 version right now, but I am slowly learning the guts of the game andd will certainly try my hand at modding some stuff soon.

I like the textile mill idea. I have a scenario written where i programmed a 1.06warehouse to act in a similar fashion, but in the warehouse model you cannot have say "X+Y=Z" only "X=Z" and "Y=Z" so I have as one of its outputs rubber=clothes to simulate using elastic i...

Not all that choose to "serve the public" are intrinsically bad. However, those that are honest that somehow manage to attain high office generally get riddled with bullets or have mysterious "accidents". Once in a while they keep an "honest" one around (Ron Paul), just...

Maybe this is Nitpicking but the Senate has 100 seats(2 per state), not 200, so we already have enough here, but i suspect the morality level of the members here would preclude them from serving, as it requires smiling and telling lies while reaching into the taxpayers pockets and robbing them blind...

U.S. currency is actually better- for toilet paper that is. If you rumple it up it does quite well and soon it will be printed on rolls and be a bargain.

Another question I have concerning buildings is where are the "standard" ones contained in the program files? Are they "packaged" in a compressed file (apparently) and if so how do I unpackage them to get at the base files so I can monkey with them?

keeping the freight speed up is slightly easier IMO than keeping a high express speed. The easiest way is simply to keep trains small- 4 cars- and use the fastest trains for the route. Fastest depends on the route length and topography- if it is a short run, a loco with a fast accleration and medium...

Hello everyone! This is a great site, I am glad to be a part of it. I am a long time strategy gamer (A Gold Star to anyone who remembers Empire) and have been active in scenario building and modding in several games through the years, having recently finally gotten tired of beating the dead horse Bl...
