Station Catchment Area

We all know that a station catchment area can be viewed while you are placing a station, and most useful it is too.

Imagine if you could view the catchment area once the station was built.

Well! You can! This is (I hope) a useful feature to look forward to (although at present, it's only coded in the map branch).

(I should say that the GUI is temporary)

Would it maybe even more useful if (for example) the catchment area shows up when your cursor is at the station, or when the station window is open even without any button?

Just a quick thinking... maybe a bad suggestion...

I agree with Purno

Is that catchment area thing working properly? because unless i'm mistaken, the catchement area of the top station should look like my altered screenshot.

The bits that are white were shown as being the catchment area in your screenshot, but they arn't part of the catchment area.

this would be useful, i agree with purno's suggestion but that'd have to be a toggle option or people would get angry.......

I think the button on the station wrap sheet should be enough, you dont cheak the stations catchment all that much, would just be a nicety and anyways that way u could leave the catchment enabled while you did other stuff around the station rather than have to have your mouse over to see it.
