I'm waiting for this to be around $20 or maybe even $25 before I pick it up.

Not sure if it's because that's all it looks to be worth or indies and steam sales have taught me not to pay that much for a game.

Is it possible to make crossovers and such? I'm trying to double track a line but I can't figure out how to connect the two lines.

Also it would be nice that if I'm building under a bridge I've already built that it would be smart enough to move the bridge piers instead of making me go around them.

Does there have to be space between the tracks for that to work, or can they be directly next to each other? They're touching, and if I click on one and drag to the other, nothing happens.

Also, how does freight work? I've got an iron ore mine producing "26/50" whatever that means, and my train has been there for months and it only has 3 units.

E: No, nevermind about the connecting tracks, I just wasn't dragging enough length. Still no idea how freight works.

E2: And I think I solved my cargo problem as well, I need to move cargo where it wants to go, not where I want it to go. Time to start a new game I guess.

OK still don't get freight. I understand that freight naturally moves from point A to point B, and the best I can do is just replicate that with my vehicles. But it's really lame that trucks make way more sense economically than trains for freight until they get enormous.

Also if everything on the map is stuck at 0 production how am I supposed to get anywhere with that?
