DB set problems

[Miketrak]

Hi there, I've been playing my first serious game using the DB set, and come across a few problems later in the game. Wagons for livestock have now gone due to time, and no new ones are avaliable, this is seriously impacting my income! How do I get the wagons??
Also, I've noticed a few train depots have suddenly lost the ability to buy new trains, the train list is simply empty! Some train depots still have the facility though!

Hope someone can help overcome these problems, as I would like to finish the game I am playing, but I will have 2 abandon it much sooner due to these faults.

Thanks,
Mike.

Use the cheat: "Cht: Allvehicles". That should cope with your first problem. The second however is beyond my knowledge.

Which year are you in? And which patch version are you using?

(In older patch versions, waggons did not age, which they seem to do in the latest betas/nightlies.)

I have just the same problem. I am in Year 1979. I am using ttdpatch 2.5 Beta 8 and DB Set 0.82.

Well, that 2nd box car (capable of transporting cattle) from 1950 has "eternal" life (i.e. prop03 =FF, prop04=FF) so I don´t see how it should be vanish even with correctly "aging wagons" now.

Could you both please point out which wagons exactly are affected (and when)?

Apparently that had never been the case with older patch versions so I think it must have something to do with that recent patch change.

First problem has already been noticed by others. second one:

Do you have non-electric and electric depots? I mean, I don't know with DB set, but maybe in that year all non-electric engines are gone, so the depot remains empty

Well, the DBSet does have some never-expiring diesel engines and DMUs (Blue Tiger, BR612...)
