Replacing vehicles...

Post by aaroncp »

How do you easily replace a broken down vehicle or when a newer, better version is available?

Do you really have to delete the old one, buy the new one and set all its routes up again? Or can I just click on a bus/train/whatever, sell it and replace it with the upgrade all at once, keeping the old route information?

you have to sell the vehical, but only drag it into the trash can, don't click it as that will destroy the whole thing. By dragging you only get rid of the engine and save the orders and wagons

Well, I've tried this

Busses: stop the bus, drag it to the bin (sell it), buy a new one while the bus window is still open
Now you have a new bus with the same orders !

Trains: the same, drag the locomotive (engine) to the bin ...
Well, back to work, lot's of it in the near future

the only time i contemplate destroying the whole train is if i need to upgrade the wagons too

but I will often just drag everything to the bin instead, saves the hassel of knowing where the train was when i sold it :P
