The Screenshot Of The Month 09/24: "Steamy Shenanigans" VOTING TIME

I've never seen these bridges before, which grf are they from?

My personal bridge set.
Will probably eventually release it here in the Forum, but it isnt really suited for "normal" gameplay, its more for Dutch eyecandy solo games.

I play a lot of eyecandy solo on other games (mostly city builders), and tbh the bridge speeds in this game are unrealistic. With the exception of some wooden bridges, all the bridges in the base game should have (theoretically) infinite speeds. I know this game isn't 100% realistic, but a bridge set with these graphics would be something I'd like to try, maybe fiddle with the code of but I'd of course not release it except with your permission and under license.

Grab Jake's Bridge Unlimiter NewGRF and it will set all the bridges (no matter what set you're using) to no speed limit. Make sure you list it AFTER your bridge sets in order for it to override the limits.

Hmm, at least the generally unlimited speeds are just as unrealistic as the default bridge speeds.

I personally play most of the time with the TBRS but this set also uses much too high speeds for the bridges. Even the slowest bridge allows 160kph, which means that the bridges are practically unlimited for road vehicles. I would like to have a GRF, that makes it possible to restrict the bridges more. Basically, this would be the opposite of Jake's solution.

You can use U&Bridges param speed limit for this. (it's available in the game as Bridges param speed limit). Theoretically it is intended for use with U&Bridges, but it works just as well for any other set. I have used this many times with both default bridges and TBRS.

Ships & Bridges: VOTING TIME

Rotterdam, The Netherlands

EDIT: Added some RV's

Similar to the Veluwemeer Acqueduct in Holland. Cars pass underneath, ships above.

The Great Toll Highway Bridge, in my fictional city 'Cordeon'.

Bridge-o-mania and a few ships ...

Oh, that sounds promising. Thank you for the advice.

Steamy Shenanigans

When the railway arrived in the district town at the beginning of the 20th century, a depot with a circular draw was built there for the maintenance and storage of steam locomotives. Thanks to the railway, there was a huge development of the city and the nearby industry. Hand in hand with the development of the city, the density of train connections increased and it became necessary to build a second draw. As you can see, the depot has survived to the present day and the steam trains are a big attraction.

My entry! (Also the title still says Ships & Bridges Voting TIme)

When initally constructed, Bliss Station was large for the traffic it had to handle, as it was built with the expectation of having to handle more traffic in the future. Now, the future has come, but the station hasn't grown accordingly; with the cities around it taking up most of the space, redeveloping Bliss Station to handle the growing traffic will be a costly and disruptive affair.
