What happened ot the food car in the UK rail set?

[denby21]

I am playing the UK rail set but for some reason there is no food car. None of the other cars have a food option. I am also using the temperate climate. Any one who might have insight into this or suggest a solution would be greatly appreciated since my cities are getting hungry! I have checked the GUI setting and everying is green or blue. I am playing with patch 2.9 beta 9.

Thanks Stefan.

What industry set are you using that's giving you food in temperate? It's possible that that set doesn't have its cargo classes set up properly; the UKRS should be able to transport the default TTD food.

Alternatively, you may be using an old version of the UKRS. The latest is 3.03.

Pikkabird - thanks for your response and thanks for all the great work and art you have made for all of us to enjoy. TTD is a great game and you have made it even better. I really appreicate it.

I htink you're giht about the cargo. The food processing plant accepts livestock, grain and fish. (I noticed from your release notes that the plan should only accept grain and livestock (UKRS industries v2.01)

Here's my list of grfs files from top to bottom:

I think you are right since I test the scenario with adding a road and truck stop to the station.The year is 1942 and there was no food truck available. I did read on one of the threads in the UK renewal set that the food car was not available until the 1960s - anyway hope you can help. Perhaps I should not be using a couple of the cargo sets. Finally the indisutry ius a food process plat and I am trying to convert fish to food.

Thanks so much - Denby

The NewCargo set introduces "food in temperate" together with fish. And it simply sets cargo bits for trucks from the CargoSet and box cars and reefers for the DBXL (specifications of temperate food should be that of ECS). At that time there were no cargo classes in the Patch´s specification.

Those files are not needed too, because they are included in TTDPatch required graphics:

Electricified railways
canal graphics
foundations for tracks and slopes
tram track 0.2

And petrol and tourists carg (maded by George) are probably not working correctly, because they don't support cargo classes. Use ECS instead.
