These hard working vehicles have come a long way, especially if you download(and check for viruses) the new grf files of player made vehicles they're very nice I don’t even use the original in game vehicles anymore the player made ones are faster/bigger and there are only a few cuz they made them like Locomotion RV's where you can refit them to whatever you need. =================================================================== -----------------------[7]Airplanes-------------------------------- =================================================================== Usually the second highest paid vehicles unless you got like max boats or something(which is a lot). Info I read somewhere don’t remember right now said the best thing to do with Planes is to find four big cities and, this is the dumb part, bulldoze the middle and put a big airport there. If you can bulldoze that much may God help your city sentiment rating. It would crash faster than a fast jet at a little airport. =================================================================== ----------------------[8]Boats(The forgotten Transports)----------- =================================================================== Boats, though slow are a very good system, when they breakdown(if you have breakdowns on) they don't block others. They can also only be screwed around with by putting up land around them or the docks( at least one of the docks they go to), and the depot. But since the AI never use them you don't have to..:D But seriously boats are a very good system. Before the patch allowed for humongus trains boats carried the most cargo of any system, even when the trains could carry more when the monorail and maglevs come out. =================================================================== -----------------------[9]Subsidies------------------------------- =================================================================== A brief definition of a subsidy is... A service offered by a(city or industry owned by a city in this game) If you were to get the subsidy offered the city would grant you the subsidy and between double to three times as much payment than normal runs.(An evil thing I do is buy out competitors doing those runs, if I can afford to, right before or right after they get it so I get the money/subsidy with little effort.
Subsidies The backbone to this service providing game. As previously stated in section 5 wood/coal/Iron are the best subsides to go for, even better then that is going for non subsidised of these industries that are across the map. This = Money, money and more money. =================================================================== ----------------------[10]Terrains--------------------------------- =================================================================== The Terrains are quite nice, and very different from the Original which don’t get me wrong it was good for 1995 or whenever it came out but only two "terrains" isn’t enough.
Terrain One: The one we all know and love is of course "Temperate"
Terrain Two: This one is "Arctic" kinda interesting with the snow an all
Terrain Three: "Tropical".. Don’t play it much have maybe two save games...
Terrain Four: "Toy Land"... Possibly the weirdest terrain ever and with new patches might disappear as well(thank God, Too bright of a background and it made my teeth hurt...) =================================================================== -------------------------[11]FAQ's---------------------------------- =================================================================== Q: Which type of Vehicle service should I use? A: Depends upon the situation. If the two points are within probably I'd say 10 to 20 squares I'd use RV's, and at least probably 3 to 5 of them. If its between 30 to 50 squares and its an industry, definitely go with trains, If it’s the same distance but with towns I would go with trains or Planes depending on the size of the town. If the route has a lot of water I'd go with what’s that yes I use boats a lot more cuz there friggin huge they're the slowest but they usually pick up more than a entire train can in one trip an make a lot more money than a train would.
Q: What’s with the beeping noises? A: That is the message system. If you have all messages turned off(which technically You can't) That’s the beeping... Its to let u know something happenin' and sometimes u should probably look, most disasters I think actually do go to full screen so you can see what happened but most of the Company and economic Info is beeped.
Q: Are the Trains as good as You say they are?? A: Uh Yea... If your in the lets say 2020ish year I think you have MagLev's then, Hmm, A coal or possibly Iron Load bout 12 cars worth from one End to the other of the map... Should get I think I had received 650'000 possibly more in one run, but I didn’t only have 1 I had 4 making that much so Hmm lets see That’s how much.... O yea +/-1'300'000 dollars in one round trip. Since it probably takes a month both ways you'd make bout 12'800'000 a year from four trains plus all the others you probably have. That's 3'200'000 Per year for A train.
Q: Why are my vehicles constantly breaking down? A: Unlike TTO TTDX has a mean thing that most new players don't know about, In TTO the Service Interval was changeable and usually set at 150 days, about five months, In unpatched TTD(AFAIK) that button is on the screen but unavailable!!, D'oh. Also it is set to 16'000 months! which is 43 years or so!!. If you are coming straight from TTO to TTD you will have to patch it, and check for a switch that has to do with this. also to make it XP compatible, if you have it... most should or probably do have XP by now. TTO FYI that I've seen is not playable, DOS is not the same animal as it was with 95.. if you try to run TTO, it will run for about two seconds then terminate. I tried 20+ times I could get into a random game but thats bout it. Then it would crash... The only way I play it now is by DOSbox, I think I have the Address I will add it in the credits area later. I think I may be able to help in that area as well I can get TTO and at least one other to run(the other being Theme Park!! yes I have Theme Park...)Oops way off question..:D But really... before asking at tt-forums about how to change this and get a flame post or somebody telling you to read the manual, that comes in every patch download file read it before asking, and if you need to find out where a switch is, in the .cfg file that it comes as(it says config, you change it with what this is typed in which is notepad!.)it's in alphabetical order so it isn't that hard to find. If you find the Configurator download site which most new people use to ease the tension of trying to use a notepad config file... it is in the vehicles tab... it will have a underline in the switch. for showing how many days you set it for. =================================================================== --------------------[12] Industry section-------------------------- =================================================================== The Most Important area. You cannot survive on cities and subsidies alone. You have to AND I MEAN HAVE TO supply industries with correct supplies, and ship the consequential products they produce to the next industry in line. By now you should know the big three Coal/Iron/Wood, and yes in that order coal is the highest paying, its starts out high and ends up high. The graph in game proves this because coal is like second or third from the top in payment and it is the one that drops the least.
