Howdy,
Another noobtion
...I am trying to build my first bus station and the call needs a station id? How do I know the station id if it hasn't been built yet? If i just put in a number like 1 it does not error out, but that can't be right...right?
I tried to look at some of your code but am not seeing it...
Please advise,
Kev!

The station ID is for distant-join, i.e. if you want to join the station with an existing one.
Use AIStation::STATION_NEW for a completely new station.
NoAI API docs wrote:
station_id The station to join, AIStation::STATION_NEW or AIStation::STATION_JOIN_ADJACENT.

Frosch,
Thank you for a short to the point response that actually answers my question!
You have my eternal gratitude...
I will now try using AIStation::STATION_NEW in my BuildStation call.
I have a feeling I may need to get a loan before I can build anything?

Howdy,
Uh...just for the record...where exactly in the API documentation would I have found that?
AIStation::STATION_NEW
Annoying noobs want to know,
Kev!

You can find it
here, it is what frosch has quoted.
You don't need to take a loan first if the bus station is the only thing you build so far, check the error with
Code: Select all
AILog.Info(AIError.GetLastErrorString());
Do not forget to set the current road type first:
Code: Select all
AIRoad.SetCurrentRoadType(AIRoad.ROADTYPE_ROAD);

Ha Ha! I just needed to Scroll down in AIRoad? I was gonna brag about finding it in the AIBaseStation section...I feel like a noob!
It's working! Thanks...
