These are so, so, so, so good.

I tried loading ISR r203 in TTDPatch 2.6 alpha 0 r2366 and got told that it's designed for OpenTTD. What is the last version designed for TTDPatch? Should I change the title of this thread to indicate that the set is not universal?

Probably the old 0.8.1

The latest release version (v0.8.2) is compatible with TTDPatch, so currently ISR is universal. No need to change the thread title for now.

When v0.9.0 is released it will not be TTDPatch compatible. I had to take this decision in order to use the latest GRF developments that are only available in OpenTTD.

But even so, I don’t intend to forget TTDPatch completely. I will ensure v0.8.2 remains available for download. If any serious bugs are found in v0.8.2, I will release further versions in the v0.8.x series for TTDPatch players.

Actually it's r65, r66 is the first non-compatible version.

  All buildings are now snowline aware.
  All office types are now available for both high and low platforms.
  Support for cereals and oil seed cargos added.

Thank you very much for the new version of this set. I really liked the update .

[Dave]

Oh YES!

[Supercheese]

Very nice, ISR is always a must-have station GRF for my games, and it just got even better!

Supports ECS cargoes but does it support FIRS?

FIRS cargoes support was added in version 0.82, and it previously supported some ECS cargoes. This version specifically adds support for the ECS cereals and oil seeds cargoes.

[Eddi]

it's worded a bit ambiguously

[mart3p]

Thanks for your comments (and emoticons ) everyone.

it's worded a bit ambiguously

Sorry for any ambiguity. But that is only a list of changes for v0.9.0.

So to be clear: ISR has supported (most) ECS cargoes since v0.6.0. Support for FIRS cargoes was added at v0.8.2.


Edit: I've changed the wording of my previous post to make it less ambiguous.

I love the ISR stations, and the freight station is a great improvement over the old "Goods Stations" which, frankly, tended to be uninteresting.

I do have a suggestion for improvement. I would like to add eyecandy warehouses to the freight stations, non track tiles. The valuables stations (Which I feel should be called "High Security Stations") would mostly fit the bill, except that they don't line up with the high level platform buildings, as shown in the picture.

I used a variety of tiles to illustrate this. You see it mostly with the roofs not lining up, which looks bad to me.

ISR Freight Station, the roofs do not line up with Valuables buildings.

Something that happened... I don't know if that's a mistake I made...

I had a game with 0.8.2 (having developer mode on) and I've changed the GRF with the 0.9.0 and it crashed. I know all speeches about changing GRFs and crashes so don't start that, I just want you to know that there is some kind of compatibility problem.

Ops, haven't seen that line... Sorry guys.

[mart3p]

Thanks for answering that kamnet.

The valuables stations (Which I feel should be called "High Security Stations")...

I agree "High Security Stations" would be better, I will consider changing this.

You see it mostly with the roofs not lining up, which looks bad to me.

Yes I am aware of this problem. I did ensure that the roofs of the cross-track "unloaders" line up, so you can use the valuables non-tack tiles as shown below...

It might be possible to have an additional variation of the valuables shed, with roofs that align with the freight station roofs. These could be used automatically if a valuables shed is built next to a freight station.

There is yet another problem with AI interaction - instead of steel mill station default one is constructed. Would it be useful to make debugging AI that builds station for every cargo to catch problems like this?
