*shudder*

Also, with the buffers, were you planning on having buffer stops (because, TBH, I think that would be good, as GRF artists with landscape packs can add their countries own buffers if need be)?

I'm pretty much stealing Born Acorn's buffers for this, they're almost done.

Are the buffers still connected to a station? I know they are a station, but it would be nice to have buffers that can be used somewhere in the countryside without attaching them to a random station on an unconnected line (to prevent trains from mistaking them for a real station...).

Well, buffers will always have to be part of a station, as they will always be a station tile. There is simply no other way to place them on the map...

Graphics are done and coding will begin at some point this millennium (Can't make any concrete promises though).

For now, heres a mockup:

Not bad! Would be nice if there will also be a version without any hedges or fences.

can't you just add these to an updated version of your basic platforms grf? i use that one quite a lot, and an update with buffers and additional undergrounds would be very nice indeed.

Because I'm eventually going to be redoing the platforms that are already included in that .grf. Except for the red brick platforms and the concrete platforms, since they are being handled in the Canadian station set.

Nay. Sorry, the brick and concrete platforms in the Canadian Stations Set are my own creation, not the ones that Cornelius drew. Grid lines are sooo out of season.

Well, I'll include them in mine, then.

Hehe, it's funny 'cause you said you can't make concrete promises, yet you posted a gravel platform and a dirt platform.

Get it? Concrete?

I know, I'm going.

Very funny, smartarse :).

Anyways, looks like I may have some more stuff up my sleeve, I've been in contact with Cornelius lately ;).
