also, holy gently caress the programmable signals are the most :spergin: thing ever.

I read the thread about it on the OpenTTD forums, and I can't even wrap my head around the why of it all, let alone the how.

The server seems pretty unstable at the moment, every time it saves there's a chance of getting booted.

Coincidentally, things were fine until somebody started loving around with hovercrafts.

I was working on converting Soylent Green to MagLev, but I now get booted after 30 seconds or so, so gently caress that. If anyone wants it, it's yours (it wasn't even mine anyway :v: ).

Are the signals smaller than they used to be? With regular signals, the actual light part of the signals if like half a pixel, they're very hard to see.

Dear OpenTTD thread, what the hell is this crap?



Both trains have been converted to Engineering Supplies, and both just sit there, ignoring all the loving Engineering Supplier they're supposed to load. :mad:

At risk of you shouting in return, are you 100% sure you refitted them to engineering supplies? Those wagons look more like the coal/ore type wagons and on the map before this one my engineering supply wagons were the flatbed type. Just double checking...

100.1% sure, I even cloned them from another train that did load those supplies without any problems.

I just logged in to see how things were going, and it looks like they are loading now (though I'm not sure if it fixed itself or if El Diabolico fixed it), but now I see trains sitting at 100% load on a full load for a long time before finally taking off.

Could it be that the trains are actually slightly larger than the station? The trains are of length 7.0, just like the station, but maybe their length is actually 7.05 or something. I seem to remember that loading trains longer than their station results in glacial loading speeds, which may explain a thing or two.
