This depends on how RL-based is Road Hog.andythenorth wrote:This stuff is in Road Hog mind, so depends how overlapping you want to be
We're aiming to have trams as real as possible, based on RL history. Yes, there will be tweaking here and there but some historic basis will have to exist.And speaking of that, you've reminded me, I must check because I think I've added a brewery tram but I can't remember which one right now.doxlulzem wrote:Say a brewery had a tram route through a city to a big shop
"Inspired by" for Road Hog. I do look for pictures of real stuff to get an idea of what to draw, but I pay no mind to the stats, dates etc.Voyager One wrote:This depends on how RL-based is Road Hog.
+1 do that... I do that all the things what I draw, but the judgement is left for the users/lookers how real they look!andythenorth wrote:I do look for pictures of real stuff to get an idea of what to draw
Then the overlap will be marginal. I try to be as historically accurate as possible although it's not absolutely possible due to severe lack of information on many many freight trams. Finding pictures is rather easy, stats are often not present, apart from some years.andythenorth wrote:"Inspired by" for Road Hog.

Let's restart this...
They'll do just fine in our set! ) 
Count me in on a future trolley bus set. I've also previously talked with Foobar about a possible kerb-guided bus set as well. Of course, that set is probably going to be way smaller.Voyager One wrote:Trolley buses no, this is a tram set. Maybe we will consider making a separate trolleybus set but here no.
Completely useless? Strange, as that's actually the bulk of my last game, where I profited handsomely. Properly implemented and managed I've quadruped the size of my main cities by providing good service with horses in eGRVTS. The trams, though, aren't as profitable even though in real life they completely eliminated much of the omnibus carriage and cartage service in urban areas. Again, this is going to be a way smaller set since there's really only so many styles and capacities of wagons you can make, and horses didn't get significantly faster or stronger in the roughly two centuries that they reached their height of utility.Voyager One wrote:As for horse-drawn tram, I'm afraid that's another no, at least for now. There are several reasons why not but the main one is that hey would be completely useless refarding gameplay because of their extremely low speed and capacity. Still, that's a no at this moment.
Yep, there's already a trolleybus set that replaces trams and implements its own overhead wires.doxlulzem wrote:Great to see some single-cargo trams and some longer trains. Is it even possible to code trollybus catenaries into OpenTTD? I know next to nothing about code, less about NML and such but can you have tram rails, and pantographs separate, like in Locomotion?

Good to see someone else likes that Top Gear gag.

Ah no!ISA wrote:All will be covered coppers?Voyager One wrote:Good news! We will now have all cargoes covered!
I've meant that all cargoes and cargo classes will be available trough refits, I've managed to find appropriate or approximate trams for all. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Users browsing this forum: GarryG and 10 guests
