I suspect that the tooltip that appears on the new "Continue game" button cannot be translated.

Last post by Oldie - April 04, 2024, 07:25:03 AM
What I'd like to see is that the show/hide state for the labels of each labelled object: stops; cities; attractions; factories, would be split out into a separate item with a popup to set them as visible, not visible, rollover. Sometimes I want to see these and sometimes not. For example when the world is zoomed out somewhat I dont want to see the miriad of stop names that confounds my need to see items.
Of course the stops "bars" need consideration.

For linux/max, you need to change the makefile/cmake to include libfontconfig. Maybe you missed an essential patch. The windows functions are since windows NT, so since 1995 included ...

The recently renaming of thze new game dialog's buttons and the good list have left a lot of untranslated text in simutranslator. We probably need the popular languages to translate them before the next release due soo. I uploaded them to Simutranslator. Pleae have a look.

Passengers will not walk from one stop to the other once they had reached one stop. Also, if there is a direct connection, they will take it and not wait for a train, if this means more transfers.

Connect the stations to your bus network and cut the bus connection between the towns and the passengers will take the train.

Difficult thing that. The settings show how the station names are displayed by changing how "show station names" is displayed. If hiding the station names showed nothing in the settings menu it might be more accurate, but also quite hard to find the option again at a later date. Hence it does not and should not hide itself.

I suppose a slightly  better behaviour would be changing the display to that of regular text, but only because a player who knows the available options could differentiate between that and default display. It does not actually help the core issue, since that could still be misunderstood as a bug.
Perhaps using brackets could help in conveying the station name isn't displayed at all without a need for additional translation (like "don't show station names" would) - at least if japanese brackets are just a different display of brackets in japanese fonts, rather then different glyphs, else that's no good either.

Alternatively, you'd need to have both a checkbox and the toggle in the same line, with the checkbox dealing with "whether" and the toggle dealing with "how" it's displayed. Not ideal, but much clearer.

Screenshot_2024-04-02-21-14-33-690_com.android.chrome-edit.jpg

This is 123.0.1, which is the latest official release.

According to the scenario.nut file, Steam is distributing tutorial version 1.6.20.

Since they are both older versions, they should work together, shouldn't they?

Work is underway to incorporate some nice font innovations.

Since it skips some standard commits, I'm not sure if it will work correctly in all environments.
I would really appreciate it if someone could confirm if it works properly on non-windows.
https://github.com/Ranran-the-JuicyPork/simutrans-ex-fix/tree/std-r11091-aliasing-fonts

note:
- In my environment I had to update freetype.dll to make the executable work.

- I was unable to import dr_get_system_font() from standard and compile it.
 Changes related to this have therefore been skipped. But at least in my environment the new font system works.

I thought this option was broken when I selected a colored background.
Select it again and you will now see the nameplate with a background.
That is, I think the original option that fooled me was "Hide stations names".
