That's not an articulated road vehicle, it's just a train running on a road.

I seem to have accidentally stumbled upon a bug in trams. Here is how to reproduce it:

Start a new game, and try building two road tunnels so that both their ends touch each other (see attachment). When you try to build the second tunnel, the game locks up, so I can't give you a crashlog. It doesn't happen with train tunnels or when trams are off, so I guess it's a tram bug.

Same here, both if I place first the lower bridge that if I build first the upper one, here ttdpatch.cfg and newgrf.cfg (I don't think that have relation with newgrf, but before chaos I place it )

That'll be an infinite loop for my code trying to find the end of the tunnel.... damn... i never thought of that situation.!..!......

Will get on to it in my next spare moment.

i don't know if this is a bug or a feature... but with George's Long Vehicles, when i build a road depot, the Skodas and Tatras and Pragas require tram tracks. I kind of like it, because when I build a tram depot, the busse usually run as trams, and I alwayss thought the Routemaster would make a lovely tram. Seriously though, it gets kinda annoying. Is this a LV problem or a Tram problem? Also, when I build a trambridge, or tunnel, I see a bunch of random sprites from the Serbian trams and RV set.

LV4 beta 3 works fine here. Could you give me more info?

Do not have this problem

Shoul it?

First of all, I can't reproduce it. I need more info

Waht is RV set? Do you mean LV set? Could you provide a screenshot?

Actually, I'm still on LV 3 3/4. I was talking about the Serbian bus and tram set taster released by Wile. E. Coyote. I probably need to upgrade to LV4, though. I'll post more later.

Will you please post screenshot etc?

Here you are. Do you need ttdpatch.cfg and newgrfw.cfg? I am still using LVSetv3 3/4 and TTDPatch 2 a73.

Are you sure you have the latest tram track grf file?

Actually, I probably don't. Let me check.

Fixed.

Tram tracks appear in the tunnel when I have a rail/road-crossing on one side.

And so?? See how much you can save on building tram tracks!

this also happens with bridges

s***. will be sorted tonight, quite obvious what's wrong...

also with the bridge/tunnel bug i remembered that the bridge will show tram tracks even if its a road bridge and allow rv over them havent noticed it with tram bridges.

I've seen that too, and it seems as if the railroad crossing in front of that particular bridge construction causes this to appear. By removing the railroad crossing it's possible to rebuild the bridge head and then put down the railroad crossing again.

MJS, You're gonna hate me, but I cannot reproduce this, please tell me what sets you have loaded and the exact way you built the tracks/roads around it to cause the issue. Please also tell me if you're running Beta 1.

Roboboy... this is a MEGARAIL issue... I never want to hear of such bugs from megarail again....
