Hi People,

Yesterday I was playing the game and suddenly I thought mabey it is handy when it is possible to vieuw te waiting list above the Station Name. In the same color bar. So you don't need to click every station to see if everything is going still OK.

Probebly somebody els also posted it as an idea. But I just wanted to say it.

Sorry for my bad englisch.

Are there anymore people who thinks this is a good feature ???

Greetings from me

eeerm, I think that bar will become very long and I don't mind clicking the station, so.... not me.

It could be like this

valubles 1580
goods 600
poeple 0
mail 20
BIGGEST CITY CENTRAL

or maby just a pickture of the goods/materials.

Just that you can see in one eye if everything is ok.

I think that it would obscure too much of the map to be any use - imagine the height of the bar if you had lots of different goods waiting.

It would probably be quite difficult (if it is possible at all) so not worth the effort.

Stationlist serves this purpose extremely well. You can check how much of each type of cargo is waiting, as well as the rating of the station. What more do you need, and with such a convenient, compact list?

Stylesjl · Post by **Stylesjl** » 28 May 2003 07:30

what about changing the colour of the bar for how well the ratings are doing?

Green= outstanding,excellent,very good
Yellow= good, medicre,
red= poor, very poor, appaling

How to see the difference between company yellow and status yellow?

I think it's not a good idea, sorry...

spaceman-spiff · Post by **spaceman-spiff** » 28 May 2003 08:58

Could it be possible to add the rating as a percentage behind the last color ?

Stylesjl · Post by **Stylesjl** » 28 May 2003 09:13

maybe a display of the company name?

I know!

keep the company colours the same but have a little point of different colour to show status of stations

WD 1000, CL 40 ... etc ....

There is a lot of free space, this would even be better

Last Color? *confused*
The Symbols after the Station Names shows the cargo and if the station is full with it or not.

I though I could add the symbols to the station name signs,
but this is mostly impossible to recycle the function for the the station name display.

SHADOW-XIII · Post by **SHADOW-XIII** » 28 May 2003 16:14

and wh are thinking about replacing those cargo signs in station list with numbers instead of showing it graphically

(or better, make this graphicall cargo a bit longer in width and put there also amount of waiting cargo)

IMO don't place cargo signs at station signs

i think that if you have 20 people 140t wood, and 80t coal at Trinnley Heights it should go

20 passengers

then

140t wood (not tons of wood)

then

80t coal

then

Trinnley Heights (followed by symbols)

and then repeat, taking 1sec for each.

and if you mouseover it, it stops and puts a list, i.e.

20 passengers
140t wood
80t coal
Trinnley Heights (followed by symbols)

You are confusing things here
I still don't know what Stylesjl wants, but I want a proper indicating in the station list of how I am doing
It's just, isn't that boring going through all those stations and looking at the rating
What if we could see that rating percentage in the station list
