And you reported this, following the instructions found on the nightly download page, correct?

That rubber plantation is in the middle of the desert?

Nope - it is a bit more... esoteric

DaleStan - no I didn't. Will I die?

Yeha but if you look at the bottom of the screenie, you can see part-desert part-grass tile... The fruit can be in the desert if it's partly in the rainforest, I think.

All signs point to "yes".

Oh NOW look what's happened - I'll NEVER find out the different thing about the screenie now, Patchman.

Thanks a bunch!

But if you report the bug, it has a notably better chance of getting fixed before you die.

Now I found out what esoteric means, I think we should get stevenh in to have a look at that road-train...

Truck front (blue cabbin?) is smaller, and so are all the little 'hoppers', also there are 6 in this one and 5 in the last one.

Do I get a cookie?

[edit] Also the total consist length is longer than the previous one...
[edit 2] As for the poll, I'd say keep this set for the Tropical climate only, nice to play a different set in another climate.

The spacing is further between the hoppers, like the real thing.

EDIT: Sorta what Lakie said... apologies.

Looks to me like the tractor is separate from the trailers as opposed to the lead truck beign rigid frame

This is too easy ... Why did the driver decide to cross over into the other lane? Perhaps he sees some oncoming traffic that is outside the frame? Or did you simply forget to select "drive on left" which some nations seem to prefer?

Competition - the beautiful thing that makes all the difference.

Here we see a DDM45 lead ore train pacing a Kenworth W900A road train also carrying ore.

(hint: the truck is drawn smaller then vanilla TTD trucks to keep the scale with the trains somewhat realistic)

Wow... Nice pic.
