Pak64 Add-ons and Graphics / Re: More pak64 vehicles

As a first small addition, next to the awesome rail-rollingstock from the prosper present and near future, I humbly present the first of two mail trucks, to complement the existing ones.

<...>

Note, your pak file is bogus, there's nothing in it. Here's a working pak file.


Also, comparison with the SimCo mail truck, in terms of revenue per post per 100 tiles at 50 km/h when full:

In 1950 (reference speed 59):
  SimCo Postal Truck: 9.9333¢

In 1978 (reference speed 71):
  SimCo Postal Truck: 6.0833¢
  NYU Postal Truck: 6.3542¢

In 2000 (reference speed 81):
  SimCo Postal Truck: 3.6083¢
  NYU Postal Truck: 3.8792¢

thanks man! Im so glad to hear! I rly spent parts of my life on this, especially like 2 years ago! And was a bit worried that this would end up totally unused

Feel absolutely free to come with ideas what to smoothen out, where to put or get rid of industries or just some screenshots

Now, I think your addition is great. Your wording had confused me, sorry.

Well, in Simutrans, the post arrives when it arrives, not e.g. daily. So a large vehicle just means post less often and Simutransians just deal with it.

Yes. I'm aware of the semi-trailer and of the 'EAGLE HVP Mail Truck' of course.
But we, Nazalassa and me, consider them a bit unfit for local delivery (last mile), considering their running cost and the fact that they hardly are profitable in town-service (<50km/h).
So that's the gap the new mail cap is thought to fill.

Have you an different suggestion how to address this?
I gladly can modify the 'NYU Mail Cap' to make it better fit the overall pak 64 ecosystem.

New regional train: French "AGC" ("Autorail grande capacité", lit. High-capacity railcar), from 2004 onwards, designed as a potential successor for the Br614. comes with a postal car that, while not having a real-life counterpart, is quite useful to cary mail on small regional lines, without needing to add an over-sized mail train.

This is the electric version; there also exists IRL a diesel version.

It's here: https://t.me/+RdZcOF1p-P_hltJW and here: https://t.me/+Tnuj3Fnh5dqtDA1P

Although I think I've been posting in the Discussion group (first link) when I should be posting in the second one.... Telegram groups replies if you do it that way, and I forgot the channel existed, not just the group...
