As I can guess, tramline cannot use autoroads bridges? Is that possible to make tramlines being able to build on road bridges?

it can

ӔO

first build a road bridge, then use the tram track build tool and click on each end of the bridge.

You can also click and drag to get the same results.
If you're building a tram line over a bridge in a long straight line, hold the 'ctrl' key down to force the game to lay a straight track down.

Uhm I meant bridge above rivers. Ill try when I will have access to play, thanks.

It doesn't matter where the bridge is - Simutrans doesn't know that a bridge is "over rivers" as opposed to not over a river. :)


Isaac Eiland-Hall

Ah... Good point. Indeed, tram track cannot cross a "river crossing". But tram track can cross rivers, so it just means you have to build beside a road - or construct a "real" bridge...

Ummm... does it? I don't know about tram/water crossing...

My projects... Tools for messing with Simutrans graphics. Graphic archive - templates and some other stuff for painters. Development logs for most recent information on what is going on. And of course pak128!

It does in pak128, at least - I tried it before posting. :)

Yes, I was talking about such bridge as in blue circle, can it be used as road+tram bridge?

VS

No... In the game this is considered as a crossing - two ways on one tile, at same height level. No third way possible, at the moment.

Sad. Thank you for your replies.
