How can I save my own scenario

Post by PaulWilco »

I just purchased locomotion! Is it me or is very similar to Transport Tycoon? In fact is it the same with different graphics? Anyway, i still love the game as i got very addicted to Transport Tycoon yers ago! (I think it caused me to get very bad GCSE results)

Anyway, i have made my own scenario with the editor but i cant seem to find it to play it when i start a new game.

Im sure there is a very easy explenation. Can someone tell me?

Thanks

you have to select a category when saving a scen: easy/medium, etc - then you will find it there when starting a new game.

I just had a go at saving a scenario. I dont get the option to save it into a folder. I just get a window with a list of all the already saved scenarios. Am i being really stupid?!

You mean you mean you saved a game while playing, or saved a scenario while in the editor? They're different file types.

You don't get an option to save it to a folder because the game saves it in the "\Locomotion\Scenarios\" folder.

Those categories aren't seperate folders; all the scenarios are in the same directory. The category of a scenario is set towards the end of the scenario creation process.

Can you load your scenario in the editor and just not in the game?
