I really like this GRF, it's fun to play a post-apocalyptic game :D

It also runs well before 2077 if you play with vehicles new grf :)

However, I've spotted that the weight of passengers / wastelanders is 1 ton per person, which makes life really hard for the usual coach... As I am playing pre-2077 I can't compare it yet to the vehicles of this set, but I'm wondering if this is intentional?

Oops! Definitely not intended, probably should be .1 ton per person. I even went through the cargo weights and fixed some of them for this release, didn't think to check the passengers though :oops:

Thanks for the heads up, I'll fix it in the next release :)

Maybe they drank just way too much Nuka Cola :lol:

On Topic again, I also noticed Vehicles which normally wouldn't be able to transport CC_PASSENGER were able to transport if I recall correctly at least Wastelanders. Is this expected behaviour?

I'd like to think that wastelanders dont have the money for proper transit so they have to make due with Boxcars, goods trucks, and what not

I'm assuming this is still with a separate vehicle set?

Passengers and Wastelanders fall in the same cargo classes, which include CC_PASSENGERS, but also CC_EXPRESS. I'm guessing that may be causing the weird behavior since typically CC_EXPRESS is meant for goods, not passengers.

It may also be due to the fact that Wastelanders use the "MAIL" cargo label, which might be hardcoded in some sets. Either way, I haven't been particularly careful to make this work with "normal" vehicle sets, since it is really meant to be played with vehicles designed for this set. If other vehicle grfs work then that is just a bonus :)

That said, I could probably remove the CC_EXPRESS cargo class from passengers since I'm 90% sure that is the cause, and I don't think there's any real reason to use it there (I think it's just a leftover from some early tests).

I guess this is probably what's causing this. Transporting Wastelanders as MAIL (basically wood class) totally makes sense to me :)

I think there's no reason why other vehicle sets wouldn't work well with your GRF. I think it works astonishingly awesome with my SUV set, as using this weak trucks (in 'rosty' CC livery) really makes the game challenging and created quite a desperate atmosphere. It has definitely been harder than I expected it to be, I really like it :D

Very nice set coming along.

After fifty years of play, there was no food lab, cement plant, chemical plant.
It does not seem to me normal and complicates playing.

I turned on "Enable static secondary industries" before starting play. Do you think this has caused this?

That is definitely not normal. Can you post the savegame where this occurs so I can look into it?

edit: just to clarify, when you say "before starting play", you do mean in the main menu prior to generating the map, correct?

Yes, I turned on this option before creating a map and then I played it for 50 years and the secondary industry did not build. Unfortunately, I do not have the original Sav file. I played it in multiplayer on my server. I started another game where I turned off this option and everything was normal again. I apologize for English, I use Google translators.

I started game again. Still no food lab, no cement plant, no chemical plant after 10 years.

I am sending you the scenario and the savegame.

Before I get to the answer, a word of caution: that scenario is definitely corrupted. I can tell because the Water Pump industry available at game start (in Necropolis) is stuck on the 2x2 layout from previous versions, whereas the latest update (0.4.0) changed it to 3x3, and is incompatible with previous versions. There is no way to have that old layout present without having forced the incompatible 0.4 update onto an old save. Add to that the presence of several other corrupted industries and the evidence is pretty clear that that scenario has been compromised. Maybe things might seem to work okay for now, but the fact that GRFs were changed after creation completely voids any warranty of that game working properly. Please keep that in mind in the future; and remember new versions are incompatible for a reason!

Now, the reason you have no secondary industries is easy: your scenario doesn't include them from game start. The "Enable Static Secondary Industries" parameter forbids any secondary industries from closing down or spawning during the course of the game. Meaning, if you want any secondary industries with that setting turned on, they need to exist on the map already. This shouldn't be a problem with random map creation since the game should always force at least one instance of every industry, but when making a hand-made scenario like this, those industries must be placed before game start. :wink:

OK thank you for answer. The game scenario was originally created on the lower version of NewGRF Wasteland. I created new version of scenario (on Bananas).

Hi Andrew350, loving the GRF and have played a few maps so far.
However, I am having issues with the building products are not accepted by towns.
What am I missing?

Check with terrain inspection tools (marked in the toolbar as this : ?) the acceptation of buildings. You need to have 8/8.

Hi Kenny, without any more details of what you're doing, I can only guess that there simply are no(t enough) shack buildings present in the town. There needs to be at least a few of them present within a station's catchment area for you to be able to deliver building materials to them. If shacks are not present, or are too spread out and not within range of the station, you won't be able to deliver building supplies.

Thanks Andrew350, in that case, what do the shack buildings look like in the towns? Can you supply a screenshot?
