Never heard of tunnels then DeadFish? At least, that's my guess.

Ah,. that explains - Duh, I must be stupid - mind you I just started playing OpenTTD. Thanks Puggy.

feedback please!

The station looks nice and effective. The two airplanes in the sky are more smoking guns. Just one thing I can't see where it stands for. The way-point "Dutlet Brundhattan" is at the and of a track, or?

Theres a corner piece of track there, its just covered by a section of road thanks to the diagonal crossing patch in the MiniIN.

Here the beatiful city and most expanded at this moment.

My first post of game images: lets see what you think!

Ninnington Docks' railway station looks so strangely real.

I think they look nice. The tunnels are a good way of saving space. You're using German instead of British signals though, and the functionality of Ninninghattan Docks can't match its looks. See, if two trains from opposite ends both choose the same platform, one of them will arrive at the station first, and the late train will be stopped at a red two-way exit signal, thus causing a deadlock.

Since Ninninghattan Docks is a three-platform station, you could take a look at http://tt-forums.net/download.php?id=59716 and see how trains from both ends can choose the middle platform without any possibility of a deadlock, and little interference between arriving and departing trains. I think it's the best (but not necessarily good) layout for such a station, until there's a better way for trains to reserve platforms.

EDIT: I've got some screenshots myself now. We'll start off with the map which, unfortunately, can't fit into a 800x600 screenshot.

Here's some pics from my current game. a couple of these stations were deadlock nighmares up to recently when I started remodelling them. "north" is top-right.

Continued from my last post.

Continued from above.

All of the screenshots will be from 1937 now. Construction on the mountain line started in 1934/35, but I only had something to show 3 years later.
Also, remember that the pictures are in wrong order.

Continued from above. Last two.

These three station is the busies station in my network.

Servicing mainly for main line P01, there are two station that also servicing for other line (P02 & P04) making it the busies area. I have split these three stations to passenger and cargo using stepping station.

According to my plan, line P01's passenger service can have up to 12 local service, 4 semi-rapid service and 3 rapid service. For now it have 10 local service and 4 semi-rapid service. Because these three station location is so near, there are possibility Guston Woods station will be take out from P01's service list and act as a brach line.

Clue where P01 is, click to my previous post

I asume that you have written a handbook for using this huge network?

He, 2 more screenshots of my new odisea with my new used OpenTTD source code and more grf's than my others screenshots ^^

Sure I do...
Here the latest service map. P stands for main line, PX is for the branch line. P09. and P10 are in contruction and have been delayed for almost 1 year. Local authorities sure give a headache.

My UKRS game has just become even more British.

This screenshot of Lartfingburg in the early 40s shows the new UK Roadset with the UKRS, HOVS, Av8, UK waypoints, and other generic western architecture that could be British or not.

It also shows a pathetic amount in the bank, especially given that inflation is off..less than £8 million. But I spend tens of millions every year bribing the local authority.

EDIT: Added two more screenshots.

That UK road set has the post-1980s "give way" road markings. Looks a bit wrong for the early 40s.

If I can have a helicopter on my HQ in 1937 I can have modern roads. Besides, I probably own 1/3 of all the road tiles on the map.

A few screen shots from a game of me with a friend. I just love busy spaghetti networks
