Patches & Projects / Re: Options in depots to only ...

Good idea but the droplist is updated after the first character is typed but not after any others, and it would be nice if the search functionality ignored case. Patch 1 implements this.

It seems weird to me to be able to search in comboboxes that only display a few fixed items (such as the line management window's "Name"/"Vehicle earnings"/"Operational profit"/... sort mode one) so patch 2 makes searchability optional. This also avoids the combobox's contents disappearing when the drop-down is open (unless the combobox is searchable).

Quote from: Andarix on Yesterday at 03:09:48 PMI just noticed that the key bindings for routes ignore the timeline.

In pak64.german, the 't' key is assigned to the sand track. However, this track is no longer available at the time of the tutorial.
It might be a bug in the code that determines whether the track is available (timeline) or not; I was reviewing that very code when creating the patch, I'll try to investigate it.

In r11879 any combobox can be searched for match text. The downside is that editing cannto reposition the cursor with the mouse. Please comment on this change. I will revert it if it is not good.

Wouldn't that prevent the player's own vehicles traversing the gate in both directions, though? That is often highly desirable.

E.g. imagine you have an industry in a town centre which requires several stops (because the input/output is high). You don't want private cars going into your stops, which are effectively a small bus station/road freight yard. But it's also highly undesirable to demolish half the town centre in order to put a fence around it (and some paksets don't even have fences). Allowing private cars to exit, but not enter, stops the build-up of traffic.

Doesn't a one-way signal block **all** traffic?  I don't want to block **my** busses and trucks, only the game-generated cars.

I made a small patch to get the last used or default way tool, however for some reason it is failing with waytype = 6, (I'm not sure if I caused it).

Usage:
way_desc_x.get_last_used_way(wt_nr)
0001-ADD-get_last_used_way.patch

One cannot pass the desc name here. No never, impossible. It will not happen, so one has to change the API documentation that the waytype there is a special desciptor name withich is the number of the waytype. (Alternatively, any illegal name will catch that too.)

Extension Requests / One-Way Private Road signs
Last post by hymie - February 08, 2026, 07:13:07 PM
I honestly don't know if this is an Engine request or a PakSet request,

Rail signals can be set up as directional, allowing passage one direction and blocking passage in the other direction.  I'm not sure if road signals allow this or not.

The "Private Road" signal blocks public traffic in both directions.  But sometimes, a car will be spontaneously created on a private road and it cannot get out.

So I would like to request that the "Private Road" be a one-way signal, blocking public traffic from entering the private area, but allowing traffic to exit the private area.

Thanks.
