Title: Tram and autobridges
Post by: Foxglove on July 16, 2010, 04:39:13 PM
As I can guess, tramline cannot use autoroads bridges? Is that possible to make tramlines being able to build on road bridges?

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.

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. :)

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...

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

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.
