Got an idea for a new feature in TTDPatch? Post it here.

Number off locos and wagons etc.

Post by ISA »

is it possible to add such thing that we can see how much locomotives and wagon we have in game? If it isnt hard to code then it would be cool to see it?
sry my bad english, hope you understand me :)

An addition to the company window perhaps?
As well as the number of trains it could also say how many engines and wagons are in use. (how about types of wagons as well?)
Of course I know this means work for someone other than me!
I maybe old but at least I'm not dead (yet).
OK! I admit it I AM dead (from the neck up)

It already shows the number of trains (or consists if you prefer) so I was suggesting ADDING engins (locos) and wagons.

And what purpose would it serve? It sounds a bit useless to me, TBH.

Useless... hmm ok it is.... But it brings some reality. All good railroad company owners should know how much locomotives and wagons they have! :)

Yeah, but someone has to code this. Is it worth it? Wouldn't it be better if the coder spends his time and effort in something else, something more useful?

EDIT: Don't get me wrong, I'm not flaming you.

I'm not sure it's that much effort is it? It sounds to me like something Pikka or DaleStan could serve up in about 10 minutes... I don't know tho, obviously.

An in-game count of locomotives and wagons? That would require Patch work.
To get a good answer, ask a Smart Question. Similarly, if you want a bug fixed, write a Useful Bug Report. No TTDPatch crashlog? Then follow directions.
