May The Force Be With You Always!

Looking good. What exactly are your future plans for the map? Will you be introducing any express trains or anything like that? Just curious.



Lewis

Might be out, however theirs too many roads  :)


Carl

Nice screenshots! I'm intrigued to hear more about how the map relates to reality - you're using a mixture of real and fictional names for lines and places.

Lewis

Quotehave you fixed my trains that I linked you for on your GB map page


My trains, also you might be happy to know i am working on them right now

Lewis

Could you include my name for the other trains. Bit of credit to me thats all.  ;)

Ves

I'm sorry if I sounded like shouting, it was not my intention.
And of course it's ok to joke around to some extent :)
We are all here for the fun of playing simutrans, and I like reading updates about your map and look at the pictures to get inspiration! :) also I use it occasionally to test bugs and the GUI elements I'm working on.


NoMorePacers

Could you perhaps make the places in the French part of the map French?



Lewis

Could you at least say the addons your openly sharing are mine? not the first time I have asked ;)

I would like to see! ;)
It is also possible that the current railway can not cope with the increase of passengers...

What kind of trains are you planning to use? Class 373 or 395?
I'm looking for spec of trains written in the following thread.
If you know, please let me know.
What are the spec of these vehicles?


NoMorePacers

Apologies for derailing the topic but I've still got your old map from pak128.Britain on Extended and recently I've found it and have been playing it. I wonder if:

1. I could upload it so people who want to see it and modify it can (with your permission of course).

2. Why you stopped developing it, as it was coming along to be a nice map.


Just asking. :)

NoMorePacers

Well, I didn't ask if I could develop it, but I'll do it anyways. Could I upload it?

NoMorePacers

I built an airport:



I also built some train lines to go with it:






NoMorePacers

Do you need some Thameslink stock for your current map?



NoMorePacers

Yes. What exactly have you done apart from the airport?

Is the map going to be set in modern times only? Because I thought it would be nice if the map was set in the past - say for example it started in 1900 - and then we could build the map and showcase the changes throughout the times. Just an idea.

NoMorePacers

My ideas for the map would be:
- An electrified mainline like the WCML/ECML
- Suburban electric branches off of the mainline
- Three or more different termini for that mainline
- Urban commuter lines
- Transpennine-style diesel mainline
- Rural diesel branch lines
- Numerous freight lines
- Express trains (Utilizing the Class 87/91 sets for electrics, HST sets for diesels)
- Electric commuter and regional trains (319/321 for longer distance/faster, 313/317 for shorter distance/slower)
- Diesel commuter and regional trains (158 for long distance, 150/153/156 for medium distance, 142 for short distance)
- Freight trains (90/92 for electric, 37/47 (57) for diesel)
- Urban trains (323/142/15x)
- Tube trains

This will be super fun and interesting to follow! :)
How do you plan on working on the same map? Sending the savegame between each other or use some kind of server?

Lewis

How do you change the fare price? Also the lower the fare price the less profit you will make as running cost will be higher than the amount brought in from the fare.

Lewis

Change it around to see what makes you gain a profit but is as low as possible.

Thank you Issac. Hopefully more people can follow in doing the same thing as well.
