maximum haulage distance ?

[smithr99]

Hi,
is there a maximum haulage distance for coal/iron ore trucks (or any other kind for that matter) ? Im trying to get coal hauled to a power station but for some reason the "go to" command doesn't want to accept the final destination

thanks
ross

Either you destination station is a bus stop or it's a non-drive through stop and you're using articulated vehicles.

Can you post screen shoot of error message?

[smithr99]

there was no error message. the previous poster pointed me in the right direction - i was trying to use lorry stations, rather than drive-thru ones.

on that note, why would you ever use a station instead of a drive-thru ?

Personally, i think there should be an error message when you try to order vehicles into 'non-accepted' stations, to make it easier for newbies

Current is quite cryptic (there is no explanation why). And for bus/truck problem there is nothing. (I will create ticket soon)
