Problem.

[NickPrince]

Hello TTs!

I've started playing again and now there occured a problem.

Each time when my trains come into their fabrique-station from a coal- or ore-mine, there appears no "$" and my credits don't increase. But when I click on the details of the train there is written that it does sales.

Can someone please help me?

Greetings,
Nick, M_Transport.

Seems you've done something wrong. Could you upload a savegame please?

I have the same problem, it says in the train info that i earn money, but it doesnt come anymore cash into my fund when the train unloads on the station. And then it's just stacks of rawmaterial on the recevieng station...

The station likely doesn't accept the cargo you'd like to unload. But as usual, provide a savegame so we can check if it's the case.

Hello! Sorry for getting out an old topic.

I've got similar problem. My trains get iron ore from mines and transport them to the steel mill. The station near steel mill accepts it, the trains gain money, but I gain nothing. Furthermore, the steel mill does't produce antyhing. So I don't know, what I'm doing wrong.

The savegame is attached here.

I haven't checked out the savegame, but it sounds like you're using transfer orders wrong. A transfer order means "unload the goods here so they can be transported to another station". That means that if you use a transfer order at the station near the steel mill the industry won't get any of the iron ore (and therefor not produce any steel either). Since you only get paid for the final delivery you don't get any money. See http://wiki.openttd.org/Orders for more information on orders.

Your post should actually be in the OpenTTD subforums.

That's it, thanks!
