(CHIPS is now released. This is the development thread. Release thread here)

A little something me and Yexo are frying up:

Looks good but what on earth is the name of the thread about?

Frying, chips, maybe add some fish to it
A new Industry? new farm crop, potato, and deliver it to city's with the big M in it?

Ahhh a station set to match FIRS? Sweeeeeet

Drool

Well they all go nicely on FISH (and chips)

i guess

Stations that automatically adapt to the nearest industry?

Now that would be very nice...

Sadly we can't do that with current spec

Ideally there would just be two station tile types: 'magic station with track' and 'magic station without track'

I think its the candy coloured buffers. Could this be the start of a buffer set? I particularly like the doubled buffered tracks where access is blocked both in and out. The attending buildings and tiles are nice too.

I think the buildings are industries, not stations

Well, they are still nice.
Strange how the building ground tiles match the platforms. Is this an error?

Both grfs might originate from the same pixel artist

Or the platforms and industries have a mutual sensitivity to one another? (Is this even possible?)

We discussed that. That seems unfortunately not possible. One can detect that there is _a_ industry. But not which nor which industry tile.

Just out of curiousity: why can't it detect which type of industry?

There's now a release, details in the release thread

http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php ... y_tiles_67_ references http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php ... y_tiles_60_ and jointly explain the available info about nearby tiles.

If I understand correctly then there is no reliable way to tell what type of industry is located on (x,y) because that information isn't stored?
