Oil Rigs

Post by captain2 »

:mrgreen: Why do I have three oil rigs without names and cannot be used although when you put the cursor over them they tell you their names

Probably becaue you do not have some sort of industry tag enabled. Look under options in game to enable them.
Very much a retired regular poster..... If you can say that :mrgreen:

Please post a savegame if the advice above doesn't work.
EDIT: no, don't. Since you play TT(D) there's not way you can have messed it up with some NewGRF of sorts, so the above should work :)

If you have exhausted the number of stations (either in the town, or in the map as a whole), the oil rig's inbuilt station will not be created. This is a TTD bug.

You can still access the resources of the oil rig by building a station with the oil rig in its catchment, like any other industry.

And why not? :)
