Great! Though I'd prefer to keep the icon silver, that way it's a better visual separation between time and destination. All the orange makes the screen a bit too crowded and harder to interpret.hthhs wrote: That's a cool idea! I've added it to the patch on the first post of the thread with a few modifications:
- the icons are now orange, like most of the rest of the text
- the icons are shown between the time and destination, because this was easier to implement
- whether to show them or not can be set in advanced settings
Perhaps you could use something like {GREEN}{RIGHTARROW} for arrivals and {RED}{LEFTARROW} for departures in a mixed board. This might be handy for reducing the number of vehicles in a station (e.g. try to timetable trains to lower the odds that they "block" each other at the entrance/exit by leaving some time in between an arrival and a departure).Arrivals boards would indeed be useful. I'll look into adding them this weekend if I have time.
Let me know if I can help somewhere, although I'm not that familiar with the OpenTTD code yet.
