Yes and the tunnels must have those wires too.

This could be easy I think, it would make it a lot better, now the wires end at bridges and tunnels

ummm actualy the wires continue over the bridge... I would like to rework the tunnel entrances though... they all look like pipes protruding out of the hill

Yes, sorry. When I looked closer I saw the wires on the bridges, but it still seems wrong because gravity doesn't allow wires to go up and down without pilars to carrie them.
I'm not complaining. Just an idea for making things even better then they already are.

Probably in stable patch version - at the moment its just alpha wires.

Maybe it would be a good idea to have helicopters serviced automaticaly when they land on a heliport. I'm playing a game without planes and have some helis go from heliports to oil rigs. Now I have one airport in the middle of the map, but the helis never come there and keep braking down. Of course I could play with breakdowns off but I consider that as cheating.

That's the main reason why I don't use helis

You know, I like choppers too, but I use small airports where I have many choppers (like in big towns, with three or more chopper lines from there).
Works great!!

Doens't the airport have to be on the orders for the heli to be serviced? Why not just use the "full load" go to depot order?

What? Isn't it the same s trains, plus you can change the interval...

I can force trains to service but plaes are going only when they want or they have depot on GO_TO list

I link 2 helipots and then use the "service at xyztown depot" option, so that it knows to go to that hanger when it needs a service, but it doesn't disrupt its service by going every ttime around the list

I was trying to get you to use raichase's way... It think

but maybe you could just play with breakdowns off

erm ... no ... I like breakdowns .. game is more difficult

And funny, to see a super fast bus break down and let all the slow trucks overtake it

, or to see a truck break down on a curve so no-one can pass, and you get major traffic snarls

. Or a bus breaks down going into a major city bus depot and all the people are stranded there till the bus moves then all the buses get bunched up waiting in the line

(thats to that patch about lining up, its not a major problem)

Everytime user use Cheat it is saving to gamesave ... but I was thinking .. is it possible to NOT TO save it if 'cheatscost' is on ?? (of course only for Tracks and Renew)

by Raichase
I justify using "tracks 1/2" with cheatscost being on

Since the new electrified rails, I never use that anymore, I like those so I let those trains running and start new networks with the monorail

but for example Renew ....I use it very often ... twice a year .. and every time it costs me about 6,000,000 pounds ....
