Sorry, nevermind. I figured it out.

I received a similar error message: "Pack element <DineE_Profile.imb> not found" I used a fresh install, patched to 1.05 via CtC, with the vista fix, on Windows 7. I installed the Trainmaster files, then the campaign files in order, and the standard express & troop types. I noticed whe...

I've been absent from Railroad Tycoon 3 for quite some time. Just before Molse closed his site, I began getting back into the game, though, and have even started designing a few new maps. I am also wrapping up several older ones that I never finished before retiring from the community in early 2007....

someone leaked the first beta to Molse's board. Guilty as charged. :oops: I was just so proud of your work, Milo! and they're not pleased with it. That is an overstatement. My impression was that they were as happy as several bugs in a big rug to have a new toy, with some minor whining by people wh...

Milo, I am sorry, but I cannot do the German translation. I just started a new lecture class, and it takes up all my time trying to get the lectures done on time.
If that wasn't enough, I also committted to contributing to a mod for "Europa Universalis III", for which there is a deadline.

It's not percentages, but "levels."
Production -50% = 50% production level
then
Production +50% = 100% production level
if you do instead
Production +100%, you arrive at 150% total.

Woo-hoo! I am heading there, right now. I'll give it a test run as soon as I quit being hooked on the freshly-released "Europa Universalis III". :roll: Oh My God! Just looked at your readme file - this is fantastic! Especially this part - an item on my long-given-up-on wish list: "26....

This has been a learning experience for sure - like throwing out the 'connected track' condition because you cannot then put track in the boxes for grants and bonds. Here's a suggestion: If you have any pre-built track for your company, at all, add some pre-built track (one cell will do) in a one-c...

I checked, and it turns out it only works if you got Gold. The event that would give you 10k track after the game time has elapsed evaluates a year to late. Fix: Find the event "Track: pre=End" in the track section of the event list, and change the trigger to "Years Elapsed = 24"...

Why Firaxis? What have they done for us, lately?
Agreed on the other two.

I like the no-ramp approach to the bridges! The gradient of the ramps in RT3 just doesn't look realistic.

Glad you liked it, EPH! And congratulations on getting (near) gold the peaceful way - I have yet to do that. Usually, the economy does me in, too. I hadn't thought about the "have $12M at some point " criterion! One request: please add a gift of track to the victory conditions for those of...

I don't think this needs to be patched, since most map-makers seem to have caught on to that problem.

I've never done any tests this systematic on this, but I have observed weirdness there. I usually work by trial and error, I have to say.

Milo covered some important factors. I have a few more suggestions. The AI does best in maps with lots of cities. Make sure not to place cities to close to rivers, or the AI won't connect to them. For optimal financial performance, you could give all AI a break (25%) on track maintenance and/or over...

My suggestion does not require you to start the game - "when track is placed" can safely be triggered while in editor. The only way that would ruin your map is if it triggered a loss or medal, b/c then, no further events would trigger.

Maybe you could let the Co. have industry w/o having to buy it? Create a territory. Place an industry in it (while not in chairman mode). Make an event "if track built, Co. 1, Terr. N., confiscate buildings." Assume role of chairman. Build one segment of track. Voila, Co. owns industry w/o...

Immigration port would be a really nice thing to have! Likewise, a demand-only building.

Great job on figuring that out, milo! It had been a mystery to me. I had always guessed its was a function of the no. of cities connected, but I suppose that this comes in only in as far as the traveler will only board a train if there is a connection available. One building that is in an excellent ...

This sounds like a great scenario - I had overlooked it, so far. Is the version posted by Hawk the most recent one?
