So Improved M Cars has absolutely nothing to do with cars at all?

There is more than the sight sees.

And, as I previously said... Is full of surprises.

Some issues I noticed, using only FIRS 2.1.5, Extreme environment

1. Oil tankers only fitted for bauxite, cannot refit to any other cargo.
2. No ships to haul alcohol, building materials, chemicals, clay, engineering supplies, farm supplies, fish, lumber, manufacturing supplies, milk, oil, petroleum fuels, plant fibers, recyclables, sand, scrap metal, stone, sugar beet, or wool.
3. Coal trucks only fitted for alcohol, cannot refit to any other cargo.
4. Iron ore trucks only fitted for coal, cannot refit to any other cargo.
5. Oil trucks only fitted for bauxite, no vehicles available for oil.
6. No vehicles for fish, food, fruit... actually lets just say that most vehicles cannot carry what they should and there's a lot of cargo that can't be hauled at all.

Maybe you posted your post in another post.

In other words...
Your last post here is in a erroneous topic :-)

These are errors with Improved M Cars while using FIRS 2.1.5.

I don't understand then.

Points 3 to 5, you talk about trucks and Improved M Cars don't have any road vehicle.

Respect to rest of vehicles, my code is good and works fine; For example, in all my test, oil and more are transported by the MPS Oil Tanker and the Cs-Inc. Oil Tanker; And for food, you only need to see the photos of my first post, these airplanes are transporting food.

Maybe other set is changing things and killing your test, I don't know.

In the weekend, if have time, I will revised all, but with really high probability, if something gone wrong is by a 3rd newGRF.

There is obviously a translation error in this conversation.

@Kamnet "Improved M Cars" is an odd way of writing it which is likely part of the translation problem, but the basic idea is that the set is only technically part of the "X Cars" sets, and has no road vehicles or train cars of any sort.

@SilverSurferZzZ You should relabel "Improved M Cars" as "Improved Not Cars" so people understand. Also, he is saying there is a glitch in road vehicles, but beacause your NewGRF contains no trucks or train wagons, I can only assume he loaded another set which is the issue or tried to use this NewGRF to enable all cargoes with Trucks and Trains.

It would probably be very helpful if the name of these sets were clear, as well as what is actually included in the sets. A screen shot of the entire roster, perhaps, as well as non-ambiguous descriptions would go a long way. When you have "cars" in a title, people are going to expect automobiles, or maybe perhaps railroad carriages. And when one inquires about what the set includes, saying it's "full of surprises" definitely leads to misunderstanding.

And perhaps, in that mistranslation/misunderstanding, when one says "all cargoes", one might assume "all cargoes from all NewGRF economies", but only actually means "all cargoes from default OpenTTD industries". Which I believe is the case here as well. After testing with only "Improved M Cars" without FIRS loaded, I no longer have issues with refits.

So, not only are there no support for cars, there's no support for NewGRF economy sets, either.

Calm, this is only the fist public release of Improved M Cars.
Rome was not built in a day.

In future versions the set will grow, more and more.

SimYouLater is on the right way.
This set is part of the Cars Series as I previously said in my first post:

And the name is correct, Improved M Cars.
The M in the name if for Millennium, for Mystery and for More...

Respect to cargoes and FIRS...
Tons of other sets kill the original ships, airplanes and more, and, this set, can be affected by them.
The best choice is to put this set at the bottom of your list of active newGRFs; Or don't use a killer set except Halloween City Names

May I suggest an improved name then? AirSeaCraft2k Cars Addon, or AirSea1kY Cars Addon are the shortest names I could come up with that fit what the set truly is.

I appreciate your suggestion, but no, the current name is correct -> Improved M Cars.

And now, I only need to say one thing:
- I see all; This is my set and I'm the only one to know everything about it.
