Container Freight station and harbor

Oracle · Post by **Oracle** » 11 Jan 2006 14:41

Thanks for that list.

I've realised that I wasn't thinking properly when I said about the warehouses - they'll have to stay separate or they won't look right. The cranes are now random, though.
Also, second company colour doesn't work for stations (at least at the moment) - the wiki says "second company colour for vehicles and town houses". That means that the green bits will stay green for now.

I've moved everything into just one class ("Harbour/container freight") to reduce clutter - is that OK with you?

Finally, the (large) cranes do seem to have a slight graphical glitch if you run a train past them in certain directions. It should be acceptable, though.

I probably won't have enough time, unfortunately - I go back to university on Saturday and I really should get a bit more work done before then. If there aren't many sprites, though, I might be able to have a go at them.

What a pity about the 2nd CC... well, I hope someady it will become possible. After all, we have 2 main colors for the company, it would be nice to have them shown in stations too.

If the submenu options are not too many it shall be fine to have 1 class instead of 2.

The game itself seems to have glitches with too large sprites, so the problem with the cranes you mention shall be fine... however, if there is any way I could solve it, just let me know.

If you feel like you have time enough, download the ZIP here . It includes a txt coding guide too, I hope it is easy to understand. However, tell mea bout any inconvenient you might find.

OK, I've just spent well over an hour trying to work out why the loading states were broken and it turns out I put "60" instead of "06"

. Anyway, all is fixed now and I think I'm ready to release this to the world!

DOS and Windows GRFs are attached. There's no readme but I think everything is pretty self-explanatory.

If you have any comments (e.g. about the amount of cargo needed to trigger load states, which I think may be a little on the high side) then please post (preferably sooner rather than later) and I might change something.
Enjoy!

Great work! thanks a lot, Oracle! you got everything inside quite fine. I just detected one detail to be polished, but not important, so don't mind if you are busy: in warehouse E (the broad one) the roof was supposed to be CC, but it isn't. Same with the small offices.

However, the work is superb, thanks a lot!

He didn't code the station, so wouldn't know why it crashes. BE PATIENT, and someone will read your post and try to address your concern. We're not a help desk...

Sorry about that, I thought I'd checked all the CC sprites...
I've updated the files in the original post now with versions that fix those.

ISA: I don't know why you get the crash that you're reporting. As the crashlog doesn't say harbourw.grf, I'm inclined to say that it's not my problem...

Downloaded! thanks!
By the way, I added the correspondent entry to the GRFcrawler. Now everyone can easily find it.

oh man it's very cool. I always appreciate grf-s that make TTDX look more realistic Thank you!

Foshnizzle.

In all seriousness, this really is quite a nice station set. I haven't had any crashes or errors as of yet.

Yes, and that is being addressed in the thread that this was split off to form. Unless it specifies this GRF in the crashlog, it may not be this station set causing it.

Nice coding job on this, Oracle. Good stuff. And Sanchimaru, this looks great in-game. Nice work aswell
