If you turn on Auto-renew, also in the long settings list, it stops notifications about old vehicles for those that can be auto-renewed. When the game runs with obsolescence disabled (like here) that means all vehicles, i.e. no messages. It also means vehicles old enough to be renewed will be that if they enter a depot, but they won't automatically seek one out.

Server reset? If we can recommend one, it might be cool to play the Iceland heightmap.

I'm trying a quick solo with FIRS, and I'm having trouble staying solvent - even fully loaded my trains have ~Y1m running costs and Y1.1m profit per year (this is going from coal mine with surplus output into a Steel Furnace, and Iron ore into the same). - Japan Trains, etc. - FIRS - Realistic Accelleration, 4x weight multiplier for freight Is there simply nothing to be done but restart? Going to join the goon server later today anyway.

EDIT: wee, on the server and having fun. So an additional question, is there any way to use waypoints as such for my trucks? I've found a forest/papermill route with trucks that's great, but if my paper trucks arrive before my wood trucks it gets really jammed up.

I’m so bad at this game, but I got a three track setup going between farm/steel/factory and just watched it run for like an hour I was proud Edit— the only city I could find to receive goods was like on the other side of the map though

Cities also need to grow to accept goods, so you can feed them with passengers/mail/etc.

I've been away from this game for way too long, what's the key to having a city grow quickly? Just connect every resource to your city that they're demanding, as well as make connections for the other places that share the name (like Sherwood Mill, Sherwood Coal Mine, etc)?

Just connect every resource to your city that they're demanding, as well as make connections for the other places that share the name (like Sherwood Mill, Sherwood Coal Mine, etc)? If the town doesn't require some specific goods to grow (e.g. food/water in snow/desert climates) it's just about moving things and having frequent service. The most efficient is usually bus lines inside the town, since you can get very frequent service with those. Also take note about the title bar for a town window. If it says (City) after the name it will grow twice as fast as one that doesn't have City status. If the town does require some goods to grow, in unmodded rules you just need to deliver even a single unit of it every month for it to count. But you definitely need to make sure the deliveries are frequent enough that the "supplied" status isn't lost, since you can lose a whole month or more of potential growth then. nielsm fucked around with this message at 21:52 on Nov 12, 2017 |

I decided to build a tram system between a few towns (1,500 -> 250 -> 200) and literally none of them threw a profit. Are trams some kind of intra-city transport just used to feed large stations? EDIT: Why is vehicle replacement not working at all in the goon game? Southern Heel fucked around with this message at 08:45 on Nov 13, 2017 |

Are trams some kind of intra-city transport just used to feed large stations? I guess the cost of the tracks are more expensive than the income the tram is producing. Try starting with buses and roads instead Vehicle replacement works fine. When it comes to trains, sometimes you have to force them to the depot and they will replace automatically

Also the game is smart enough not to replace trains if the tracks are wrong. Have fun with that one. Gold gold gold!

OK so I've got a nice feeder operation going on in the north in this map - the problem is that my maglev trains just aren't loading fast enough. Even with all seven roads of the station full, the stock of wood never dips below >600. Is there something I'm missing?

# ? Nov 13, 2017 11:31 |

I looked at it and it appears that the game is only loading one transferred truck load at the time? Maybe. Sorry but I have no idea how to fix that or if it's a bug.

Can you update the server with the latest version? I can't find the old -RC1 code.

Dear CoolCorp, I'm playing the first round so I may not have a right to complain, but please stop flattening giant parts of the map because it doesn't look nice. (Don't look at my things, that's not the point!) Otherwise: How often does the server get reset? I'm wondering how much more effort i should put in my company.
