BTW, could the author of new water and shores fix default TTD sprites too? As you can see I used them as resort ground tile. It looks good with default shores, but needs fixing for new one.wallyweb wrote:

There are more than this one. I´ve just taken a look on the german texts and there are dozens of them. George, what would be the best way to fix them?athanasios wrote:George: Please fix that typo "Torists" -> "Tourists".
I don´t think it´s a good idea the way it is now. Either make it configurable (if you really want a "debug mode") or get rid of it.What do you think, is it a good idea to report the exact values of registers and put a formula to documentation, or it should be hidden (the player will not know exactly what happens in the industry and will see only output change next month)?

That is good, however the way it currently is I am only seeing your original tourist office building in 1921.George wrote:Any year.
Be nice to see. Just a thought though. The building is more appropriate for Tropics. Perhaps Oz might be up to putting different skins on it for the other climates ... something Catskillish for Temperate and something ski lodgeish for Arctic?George wrote:Trees would be fixed later (test Goodrich Ariel for example).
One of each is all that would be needed, as long as I could have each appear in the same game at the same time. I have a fun scenario use in mind for these.George wrote:You can have any tourist industry, but only one instance of each.
Well, yes, o/c. However, I was thinking about a better, direct method. Otherwise it´ll end up like the "fabric" (factory) issue.George wrote:> what would be the best way to fix them?
Report them to me
I think that´s a major decision flaw. Why not allow any ground tiles for these buildings (and supply appropriate foundations), in the same way the fruit orchard (or the forest) may be placed?Roujin wrote: [...] how to construct them, as they're so tricky?

I did it first, but them removed due to animation coding difficulty (it is possible, but rather boring). I decided to document layout instead.michael blunck wrote:[tourist buildings]I think that´s a major decision flaw.

Would you write a wiki page about them for me? I can send you a savegame that demonstrates all the possibilities. I shall also answer you to your questions about any of them if you get some. I shall check the description later too. Deal?Roujin wrote:Is there a list of all the tourist buildings available somewhere? Possibly with info how to construct them, as they're so tricky?
using the latest version, i always only get the "boring" 2x3 tiles tourist center, not the castle or the resort, even if i prepare the ground like displayed in some screenshots of you...

George, Is the appearance of a particular structure (tourist center, resort, castle) random?George wrote:Any year.

UhOh! I've been found out.michael blunck wrote:From what I´ve read so far, it seems that Wallyweb had tested some (or all?) of your ECS vectors for quite some time.

Strangely enough I had animal care in mind as well ... sending you to clean the pig pens in George's animal farms.michael blunck wrote:I´m sorry, I have to feed my cats now.Wallyweb wrote:Now, if you will excuse me, I must go and find something for Michael to do.

However I don't speak "native". I do speak English though.
George, I might be able to help with this.
First, could you PM to me a basic information framework that I can use for all of the industries?
When I have the framework, we can copy it for each industry and just fill in that industry's information. I will make sure that we have proper grammar and splelnig.

Everything else looks goodaddition wrote:Due to the intricate nature of the tourist center graphics, some ground preparation must be done before building each tourist center. Please refer to the graphics provided with each layout description.
