Okay, now that I've had a chance to view some other topics...
I've had a blank map that I've been working on. It's based off of the area around Baffin Island. Although the land is real, the place is fictional. I've already got cities and paint jobs set up, and I just have to work on events.
So, it got me wondering...Anyone remember the David Masters scenarios?
I really enjoyed those, as they were funny, and kept the player entertained while they tried to accomplish their goals. Since RT3 came out, I felt that it was somewhat lacking in that aspect (at least in the sceanarios I've played so far).
The whole point I'm trying to get across here, is what if this could be one of those crazy scenarios where the player has no clue what is about to happen? Would the community enjoy it?
Hope I get some feedback on his :D

Okay, looks like I've got positive support so far! :D
Hawk, I'm referring to maps such as Blimper (Probably the funniest scenario I've played), and Roundabout, and Monrovia. There are several ones listed at his old roundhouse site(which appears to have been removed from the web), including one called "Cowabunga" and another that has something to do with coffee. I never got a chance to play these sceanrios, the site had lost all its download links by the time I had discovered the site.
Anyway, As soon as I get Northern Ontario to be harder, I'll get to work on Baffania. I'll try to make it as crazy as possible.
P.S. Hawk, I haven't played Paphalopagus yet, but I think I downloaded too many logos and the game won't work so I'll have to delete some before I can play it anyway

Have you tried emailing David? You can find a link to email him at this link.

I don't know if the link still works but I guess it's worth a try.

Sorry about the delay on this one folks, :( Whatever free time I hvae for RT3 is usually used playing scenarios I've recently downloaded (Though that's the main part of the game.) I'm currently working on city sizes and industrial setup, which is a slow and tedious task. :? I'll try to get this one done as soon as possible. :)
P. S. Kudos to EPH and JSS, especially for Transcontinental, and SCBC 1898, which, IMHO are the best North American Scenarios created yet. :D

proudcanadian. I do hope to get the SCBC map still done before RT4. I have promised someone to “clean†the latest version of the map up a bit and forward it to them. Did a bit of work on it but came across some strange behavior that I have not experienced before. To get that fixed requires some real time consuming work again and so far I have not been in the proper frame of mind to get into it deeply again because I simply do not have that much free time at the moment.
In any case, thanks for having tried the map.

Well, the good news is that I've finally finished seeding the industries for each city and I'm starting to write the scenario :D .
The bad news is that I dont know how to work a certain type of events I need to make.
I'm trying to have it that in order to access each country, you need to complete a certain task. The problem is that I dont know how to script it so that access will be granted to the company. If anyone can help, it would be appreciated
Thanks as always

Well, the scenario is moving along slowly, and unfortunately, I've hit another snag. :(
I want to have the territory access event work so that if you haul x amount of a cargo to a different territorythan the one you're accessing, you will gain access.
This is probably really obvious, either that or impossible, but I hope I can work this out.

So, say I use Territory Variable 1
Then I use an event to set territory Variable 1 to 0?
then set the counter for LTD Company loads hauled to territory and when territory variable 1=20 then access will be granted?
This might not work because I want to have two specific cargoes hauled to the other territory (20 lumber and 20 clothing)
Thanks for the advice though 8)

I figured it out!! :D
The map and scenario is now set up, so I'll get to work adding events. I might get it released even before the end of the year!
Thanks for the help, and when the time comes, enjoy! 8)
