Transport Tycoon Forums

I have a problem with large office buildings. They block my view of anything in game to such a degree that i get bored of playing because basically im looking at some building all the time with an elevator going up down up down and yoodledoodle.

Basically i wondered if it would be possible to de-select these buildings (i know thats possible, as i do it already) but be able to change them as industries accepting passengers to create passengers, thus stopping them from being built of the entire map, and limiting them to only a few places per map. Kind of like that ski resort. Do you know how i mean?

Give them an altered skiresort xml should do it?

I use the Robo railcarhouses of Loewe13.
Made them available from 1900 instead of 2010.
It are the smallest houses in the game (7 types) and they accept goods.
Switched all skyscrapers off.

I dont mind the sykscrapers, i think its good to have them - but you know, when there are 1200 of them and you cant see anything but them it spoils things a bit, so maybe if they were as an industry you could finance every now and then a new industry, that being a skycraper, and in certain larger cities you could have a smaller, more realistic looking cluster of them there, where you can transport people to and fro.

BTW, how does one do that? And if i did it, when time allowed of course, would it be legal to release it here?
