Modified my scenario. Added new towns to make my passenger network bigger. Enjoy.

[Lighthouse]

funny to see that all the houses are around your streets, even the ones that connect city´s

[dedmicz]

Well, edited roads so cities can't create junctions. I wanted to connect all towns to provide bus transport in future and didn't want towns to grow too much. So they build around roads. Also removed all four tile buldings to make it look better. Imo it looks pretty good. Much better than map thats like Coruscant.

Wow, I've never able to build such a long train. How long it took to load those 2000 tons+ lumber?

[Zakos]

Depends, sometimes I can tap an oil well that gives 1000+ tons of oil every month.

I'm starting to wonder if output increases once you have a station next to the industry.

It's 'only' 1500 tons. It's not really much time, like a month in game. I have station that captures 4 managed forests.

It increases with demand, with more than one train constantly loading at a station the output will slowly increase, sometimes it just explodes!

[Zakos]

I don't usually look at the output, but this is the most I've seen in a while.

The max I ever managed to have is on a Chemicals industry, with something around 3.000 per month. But it just exploded. Didn't done much to have it like that...

Anyone knows good tips to make it grow fast?

Well you need two station to have 100% or a little less transported. Once I built one train station and truck cargo station and production increased very quickly. Not sure if having truck cargo station was the reason for it or just coincidence. I guess the more your stations demand, the more is produced.

I like it. Might I recommend the earth bridge?

Part 2 of network video thing.

Love these videos! You must have spent a long time working on this network. Some very long expresses there too. How did you make them? I've been trying with Hypercam but all I get is black screen, possibly because I'm running on vista and not XP.

[Zakos]

I love the shots. Absolutely love them.

I am running Win7. What you need to do with Hypercam is start Loco, then press the hotkey to start recording. But there's a 8/10 chance you'll get all rainbow colours due to the pallet getting confused.

As for the long expresses, I have a large passenger demand at the Brownhattan end of the map, and I am using the long station glitch to able me to use 12 or 13 car trains with ease.

Well, I had them, but it doesn't work. I suck at modding and last time I added something few things disappeared (like earth slopes, buffers). However it's not looking bad without it.



And some new screenies.

You added some thing included a new trackst file. That is the reason why it has disappeared .
If you use search here on the forum, you can find several topics about editting the trackst file and how to add things like the earthslopes and the buffers.

For your convenience

Part 3 of ridiculously large network.

[Zainy521]

Great videos, Kingmush! How many trains do you have running on that network?
