What do you prefer, the old style or the new one?

very nice! I want them

Old style.

Although MB's ones give them a good run for their money
(I still prefer your locks though)

They don't look bad

Is this package already compatible to Oskar's alpha 19?

Yes 19a

Before all start downloading alpha 19a, alpha 20 will be soon released...

George, you didn't work fast enough *g*

They look very nice, no doubt about that. But I think you mixed up two things. I've never seen a dike with a fence along it's length. Maybe because the dutch government would have more maintainance costst for fenced dikes, but I think it's not necessairy. The fences would very well suit a port area though.

Hm, right ... but the lowered edge is a good start. Add., would it be possible to make such little shields for "no anchoring" in different distances? Like the masts for electrified tracks. I'm sure it would look very cute

I like them much ... great job George

Sorry, I have other things to do too

Than the sign will be on every tile, that is too often, I think

Parameter 1 activates old graphics, parameter 0 - the new one.

Does it? This doesn't seem to work on the set you sent me, and the one you have on your webpage is the same I think.

The new dike graphics with the grass border don't look right in the other climates either. In the arctic, the grass has the wrong colour and is out of place in the snowy regions.

I think you should make the canal graphics without any grass border at all.

Or add a climate heck so you get the old graphics in other then the temperate climate.

The version on my site has both the graphics of old and new style.
About arctic and tropic... I've wrote about it to Oskar. He said it would not be possible to create the desert check, but maybe a snow line check. I shall change the grass color depending on landscape. I don't know what would be with snowline. In tropic I shall replace grass with stones.

Sorry but my current attitute to it that the canals graphical are good enough. Snowline check could be added, but It wouldn't that easy. In general I don't rewrite 50% of canals so A LOT stuff will break to support all stuff. I am very happy with the current state of canals, never thought it will work as good as today, so I don't touch canals and try to get higher Bridges working...

I concur. We can fiddle with the detailed appearance of the canals later if we care. Getting the high bridges (and bridge replacement graphics) working is more important at this point, I can't wait to see a Big Boy pulling a long drag freight across a 4-tall bridge in the high Sierras...

Agree. higher bridges are more important.
