Build coal mines?

[kustj]

Hello!

It's been a few months since i played OTTD and the version I played was 0.5.3 RC2 or RC3 and in that version i could build coal mines, they were expensive but I loved putting 8-12 besides each other and build a train station there and have a lot of trains dropping by.

Now in 0.6.2 I can't build coal mines anymore? Is that option removed or is it because i don't have enough money on this save yet? I my new save i have about 1 million, and on my old save which got deleted when i formatted my drive I had 20 billions.

Hope you understand my english as I am from Sweden. Thankful for answers.

It is in patch options, check economy settings: manual primary industry construction method -> as other industries

You can still build coal mines. Two conditions apply
- you need sufficient money. 1 million might just not be enough.
- you need to allow construction of primary industries in your economy settings dialogue. See the OpenTTD wiki for a screenshot and detailed description: http://wiki.openttd.org/index.php/Confi ... es/Economy

Your English is very fine.
