Do you have problems with ECS vectors? Look here!

[Gremnon]

I believe on the TTDPatch Wiki pages for ECS, there's parameter for one of the Vectors (Basic, I think) that defines the behavior. I don't recall the exact settings, but I do know it's fairly self-explanatory.

Funny, I tried setting parameter 0 to 2 before and all it did was change the name from "gold" to "valuables" but it seems to be working now.

Per this topic: http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=46392 I am wondering if it's possible to have the bank (using both ECS town and basic vectors) accept and produce valuables as well as accepting gold. Is this possible, or is it intended to only accept gold?

If you use only ECS, then gold and valuables use the same CargoID, so you would have only one of them. Parameter 0 of ECS Basic vector provides the following behaviour:
0 (Default) - Replace VALUables with GOLD and make Gold mine available
1 - Do not provide Gold nor Gold mine valuables is unchanged (if defined).
2 - Do not provide Gold. Gold mine is available and produces as much valuables as gold.
Valuables itself are defined by town vector, Basic vector overwrites it.
But if you would provide valuables on the other slot and set Basic vector to use gold, you would have both gold and valuavles in game and banks would accept both gold and valuables

It should force Gold mines to produce valuables.

Hi George

started - created the track - no revenue - saved - loaded - no revenue.
yes it is 0.7.4

Attached a savegame.

Wood to sawmill works
Wood products from sawmill to factory does not work

Coal from mine to glasmill works
Sand from mine to glasmill does not work

mix loaded glas + wood products to furniture factory does not work

Thanks for checking.
Regards

As I expected, everything works fine with R18545. So see this http://bugs.openttd.org/task/3344 for details

Hi George

thanks . I ll consider about installing nightlies R18545 or even go further using the 07.5 test environment.

Ok, I'll set the parameter to "0" to have the basic vector use gold, but what do you mean by providing valuables on "the other slot?"

You can make your own GRF, that would define cargo Valuables on the other slot, than 0Ah (used for Valuables/Gold in ECS).

[popewiz]

Ok, I understand. Time to learn how to write grf's then.

Why doesn't the station accept Goods and Food? I use the vectors from 25/nov/2009

[Gremnon]

IIRC, the Tourists industries only accept Goods and/or Food at certain times, such as when they're expanding.
I also seem to remember that this ignores even the parameter that normally forces industries to accept, even with a full stockpile.

It should start accepting food and goods on the next callback (up to 3 days after tourists arrives). If it does not start to accept them 3 days later, please send a savegame

No. They should accept food and goods as soon there are tourists waiting.

It really doesn't. Savegame is attached, it's a savegame in Petert's mini-Patchpack build. http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=46399

Sorry, I check only the trunk. Please, try to reproduce the problem in trunk and provide a savegame for the trunk.

[Hamilton2007]

Ok, will look at it, version 0.7.4 ??

[Hamilton2007]

Here is a new save..

[George]

Here is a new save..

It is a problem of the watching tower only. Would be fixed in the next version.

[Hamilton2007]

Ok, thanks for looking in to it

Hello,

I found this GRF for a ship which can transport fish.
Unfortunately when I try to load it in arctic climate it deactivates.
Is there a ship which works in arctic climate?

[Rick D]

Wonder if someone can help, I set the ECS parameters to 13 (no stockpile limit, unserviced mines do not close, unserviced serviced industries do not close) for all different ECS vectors but the industries were still closing. Am I dong something wrong?
