It has been a while and ill not post here regulary, you can find me at Discord OpenLoco.
How ever i see there are still some fans of me a life :mrgreen:

The Escalator, It is a sort of Extended Serpent, The Serpent was made to create a "bigger" map on the same surface, now it has been exteded with more of everything, it has 12 Towns 50 Industries (some in clusters) a prebuild track path but no boundary markers so you can go the way you want but the real challenge is to follow the path. I have test play this map 3 times, it takes me 6 days to build all tracks and i have plenty of time, I had to test play 3 times because i didnt make money and went bankruptcy but now you can barely stay in bussines 🙂 I have deployed 270 trains varying from 41 to 8 blocks (tiles) long and finaly it starts to get bussy. I have attached: The Escalator.SC5 the scenario, The Escalator Towns.SC5 is a landscape with only towns and no silly town names (I like silly names in games) to make your own version. On the Scenario only vanilla vehicles are selected and the scenario is for the Auto MOD, so before you start select your own choice of vehicles and miscellaneous items. (non OpenLoco players can do this with LocoMOD)

Best to be played with OpenLoco

Best regards
Zimmlock

Wow ! Thank you so Zimmlock, the Escalator. It is a wonderful scenario. I think it was most thoughtfull to have only basic equipment. Is nice to be able to easily pick your own favorit locos and rolling stock. Thank you very much for uploading Escalator. It is not easy in any way, but worlds of fun. By the way how did you get so many industries ? :-)

Let me say again i think it is a wonderful scenario. When i open it with scenario editor, it tells me that 21 industries have been selected out of 16. While i think this is great, i just do not understand. If i can figure out how to post a screen shot i will.


I have made a poor (very poor) screen shot.

it shows 21 industries selected. But in game play there are only the 16 there should be. Am simply puzzled.

Look good at your screemshot, you have variouse industries double and the game selected them for you (papermill, Sawmill, Scrapyard) but in game appears only single versions en you end up with the limit of 16 :-)

all i can say is "OH" i see, i had some how thought there might have been some odd work around that might have been found. Still is a very fun scenario.
