Multiple rail types at one station - pls. help

Lars · Post by **Lars** » 02 Jun 2003 22:24

I once used to have multiple rail types in one station, but now that I've changed to the windows version (using newest patch), I can't get it to work. I try for instance to make a station with 4 railroad tracks, and then I try to add some monorail tracks with ctrl+mouse click, and then I place the station....having only monorail tracks. Dooooh! Pls. advise.

Best regards
Lars VJ

Hi Lars, can you post your ttdpatch.cfg file ?

Lilman424 · Post by **Lilman424** » 03 Jun 2003 03:53

Maybe it has to do with the manualconversion switch?

spaceman-spiff · Post by **spaceman-spiff** » 03 Jun 2003 03:54

I've just tried it and it works in the windows version, I can add a new station part in another railtype, perhaps a switch that isn't right

Don't use the ctrl-button.
Just place a new part of the station, with the same length as the already build ones, next to it.

Rob: Ctrl does nothing in building multiple-type stations

spaceman-spiff · Post by **spaceman-spiff** » 03 Jun 2003 06:05

Yes, holding down the ctrl button or not doesn't change anything
I wonder what it could be, dos problem perhaps
The latest windows alpha 47 works fine

ctrl click was used to select a bigger station size in the station build window. If you have enhancegui you don't need it anymore.

You need to select the same lenght as the station already build.
And the maximum Station size is 7x7 all over all.

Don't you people read posts?
It was Lars who said that he couldn't build another station next to his existing ones with ctrl+mouse button.
So I explaind to him not to use the ctrl-button.

I have only stated for what the ctrl key is / was used in combination with bigger station, I read your post.

OK, Topic can be closed, right? spaceman-spiff where are you?

Rob · Post by **Rob** » 03 Jun 2003 15:12

I wasn't referring to you eis_os, but to Lilman and Spiff.

spaceman-spiff · Post by **spaceman-spiff** » 03 Jun 2003 15:19

Why close it ? We haven't heard yet from Lars

And sorry Rob, but I must have misread your post and just noticed the ctrl key somewhere

But whether or not he was using the ctrl-button, it doesn't matter, because I tested it and nothing changes using ctrl-click to place the stations
