Suspended rail depot

[MaxKalina]

Hy!
The suspended rail depot appears only in the 60-s, in spite of the fact that trains appear much earlier. Is it possible to solve this problem somehow?
Thanks for replies!

I am playing Windows native version with 128 pak.

As far as I know, It's not possible unless you play without timeline enabled or the author modifies the intro dates of those objects...but let's wait for the pak128 experts.

Wich Version of the PAK128?

[VS]

31.8.2008 the intro date was changed by whoami from 1985 to 1901. Since then we had a few hundreds of nightlies and a major release.

So what is your version of pak128?

Obj=building
Name=MonorailDepot
type=depot
waytype=monorail_track
copyright=684k
# intro_year=1985
# intro_month=2
intro_year=1901
intro_month=3

The pak is 99.16, downloaded from here: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/simutrans/pak128-1422-99-16.zip

And where can I find this:
Obj=building
Name=MonorailDepot
type=depot
waytype=monorail_track
copyright=684k
# intro_year=1985
# intro_month=2
intro_year=1901
intro_month=3

How the date could be changed?

Thank's

Well, 99.16 is simply outdated. A lot of things have been changed and/or corrected since then. And detected errors are only corrected for actual and future versions - never backwards.

Obj=building
Name=MonorailDepot
type=depot
waytype=monorail_track
copyright=684k
# intro_year=1985
# intro_month=2
intro_year=1901
intro_month=3

This is part of the source-files for the object in question. You can't change anything there yourself, I'm afraid. It was just used to show (or "prove" to) you that the intro_year has been corrected from 1985 to 1901 in more recent versions.

You want to download the latest Pak:

You can't change the intro_year stuff unless you have access to the source files, and Pak128 isn't open source (yet).

Or you can open the file with depot in hex editor and look for numbers like these years...

The data are at the beginning of the file: most of the file is taken up by the images.

IIRC that one is merged. But you can search for something like MonorailDepot and continue from there.

But I would advise to upgrade pakset and Simutrans.

Thank's everyone! Pakset upgrade helped!
