Hi guys,

I am trying to build a station on sloped land, but it doesnt seem possible. But i think i remember that it used to be possible to build in this way... Do i need to enable something extra in my ttdpatch.cfg or is it just not possible?

No you can't build it with the end hanging over the cliff like that.
If you trun it 90 degrees with one track on the slope it will work.
Same as for the bus and truck bays, you can't build them with the entry/exit facing the cliff either.

Ah allright, they should put it on the todo-list then :wink:

Nope, there's a reason this can't be done. If you connected rails there, the train would fall off the cliff and explode. (Well, without the exploding part, anyway.)

well it wouldn't if your station was an end station. In fact with the "non track tiles" in for the new stations you could even make it un accanble at al. but I think it would look silly in the end :).

Terminus station is end station. Train reverses there.
Ro-ro station isn't end station, trains can proceed further
