I have only one request/challenge:

Develop the island towns (Okiwi, Tryphena, Oneroa, Onetangi) to the maximum level possible.

Can definitely do! Goodbye pristine native bush! :v:
BTW, by developing I meant stimulate the towns' growth through regular transport services and possibly invest in industrial complexes (I forgot if you can buy those in Locomotion?), not just "build a bunch of poo poo and call it a day" :v:

Also, no mass leveling (in that area at least). Huge engineering projects and land reclamation efforts are OK, but it's more fun if you work organically along with the landscape you're given and not just plonk a 100x100 building field of sea-level flatland.

gently caress you Jaguars, I reinstalled Loco and lost an hour just because I wanted to check something :colbert:

BTW, someone remind me how I can switch cargo on multi-cargo car orders (e.g. I have coal/ore hoppers and a full-load order says load coal, how do I switch that to load ore?).

Can I build isolated routes and link them up later, or does it all have to be one network from the start?

Yes, as long as they're full, town-based networks, and not "just link all the most profitable industries to start with".

Got a link to the map, or have I missed it?

What's wrong with "Chowick"? I lack context.

OK, maybe I'm just a moron but I still can't find it.

Let me clarify: when I asked for the map I meant the actual map/scenario file you can play, not images.

Thanks! Is it custom-made just for the LP?

Hm, doesn't work. May I ask for the list of mods?

P.S. Should I timg the full size screenshots?

Crop them or resize your screen to 1024px wide. They break tables as they are but timgs are a hassle.

I don't see any island development going on, not even a bus/tram route :colbert:

(do we even have trams yet?)

Long term suggestion: develop the smallest backwater on the map into a bustling metropolis.

That's exactly why I made the island challenge.

Is there no diagonals besides winding curves? Is it just N/S/E/W + Curve bits only?

The largest curve is laid in 45 degree bits and allows for diagonal tracks.

So creating a dual-track layout will fix some of that pathfinding, right?

Yes, and be a wonderful opportunity to gently caress up in many new places. :v:

I vote for something food-related (Brewery, Food Plant) on the Okiwi-Tryphena island. :getin:

So, is it some running joke, or do they actually call themselves foamers?

I hope the state of the game post includes a giant screenshot of the whole map.

Looks a lot like A-Train. Man, I'd love to see that LPed.
