Paved roads above snowline and in desert

[PaulC]

I'm getting paved roads above the snowline in artic and in deserts, and I'm pretty sure I shouldn't be (in fact, I didn't think it was possible above the snowline):

I'm not sure what the problem is. This doesn't occur if I run TTDP without any newgrfs, but AFAIK none of the grfs I use should be doing this either. By selectively removing grfs from my cfg I found that this happens when I have any of the following, regardless of whether or not they are active:

Tropic Refurbishment Set v0.3.1
Pikka's Basic Industries v1.5
Swedish Houses Set 1.0

which seems a bit random. I'm using Windows, but patch version doesn't seem to make a difference: 2.5 beta 9 is no different in this regard than the current nightlies (r2305 at the moment).

Well, yes, but none of those grfs are actually doing that AFAIK -- you told me yourself that PBI doesn't do anything to the roads. And action D variable 9E seems to be just for deserts, not snowline...

From what I have been reading in OpenTTD code. Snowline is desertline. I do not recall the details. But the same code is used IIRC.
Maybe it is related.

Yes, as far as certain areas of the code is concerned snow and desert are the same thing.
