I was so addicted to this game that I used to reach similar or more complex layouts in a just a few weeks... I even left the game running some nights to advance and earn more money for new infrastructure the following morning. (was that cheating?) :P

Seems good, but you can try compacting it as much as possible (which would create spaghetti) or making it esthetic.

Walkaway play is not cheating.After all,if you leave a situation that you haven't managed properly,you can come back to a hopelessly bankrupt company.

Yeah, like industry closure. That never happens with pax or mail, and it may even get better if towns create their own roads :wink:

well, the network could simply deadlock, and you go bankrupt from running costs while nothing earns any money anymore

Frankly, if you're willing to do that sort of thing, I don't see why you wouldn't just cheat yourself the money. It's faster, more environmentally friendly ^^ and it's not like anyone will care either way in SP.

When I see that screenshot my mind screams "SERVE ALL THE INDUSTRIES !!!!" :lol:

I personally don't utilize RoRo and flying junctions too often - in the old days I almost always do, but these days I aim for a "realistic" look, and it's very difficult to do without freeform in a limited space, so... yeah.

I always have breakdowns on.And inflation.And never cheat.
Getting a network to where you can leave the game running overnight is a challenge.What really keeps me from doing it is I need to keep a save from every game year in order to maintain archives of the full financial history of every vehicle.
