Well I completed Mixing Muscle (my rating shot up 10% randomly!). The 6 aircraft I had were bringing in half the money. I think the AI have limited money, but everything costs less for them, including free landscaping, as if it wasn't for landscaping, i could build the airports a lot earlier, even earlier than they did. I think that the least they should pay is ³/₄ for the landscaping, as it makes it deadly unfair otherwise, as aeroplanes are such great money haulers.

Thats why you have to be better than the computer. Even thouygh they have an unfair mone advantage, they can still be beaten! And its probably to stop them going bust really quick!

I just think it was really unfair. They got them approximately 3 years earlier than me. I reckon it should be slightly re-balanced, to stop te huge advantages AI have.

No thats the point! If you can beat the AI with them havinf agvantages, you are infinitly better!

i agree with SB, beating ai with advantages clearly shows that you are better!

Yes, I know that, I just think them getting aircraft ages before you is seriusly unfair, as it basically means they have a secure money foothold, as planes are flippin awesome. If they had to pay SOMETHING for landscaping, it would be much better.

Oh, and I'm complaining as it means some missions you have to spend ages just trying to get that extra few percent they got from early aircraft.

Yeah, but the you have one thing th computer doesnt have. IMAGINATION! you can change how you play the game to suit the environment and beat the very best AI payers becasue they are programmed!

Yes, I know tht. Just it becomes boring when you have to wait ages to get the extra few % to win a level just because they don't have landscaping costs.

Thats why its a business strategy game! sometimes yu have t wait to complete a scenario. Like Roller Coaster Tycoon, you can complete a lvel a year early, but still have to wait for the end of the scenario.

There are lots of people who have had to get 100% just to complete the scenario as the AI got too far ahead with their advantage. That takes some doing.

I haven't touched this in days. I haven't had the time, to be honest. I've been spending time doing more important things like hanging out with my girlfriend.. all that computing needs to be balanced out at some point!

He he. At least one of us is thnking about that sort of stuff. We are currently swamped in HMWK and coursework to be playing games. But we still find that little bit of time!

Yeah too true. It's ebbing away now, but then the revision begins...

And the nightmare starts, bwahaha!
(Not an attempt for cheap VD gain)

LOL, too right. Isn't it strange how the topic has gone from a class game to stuff about exams?

Back on topic..

How bad does a train get hampered if it is longer than the station because when i make a train longer than the station it never moves!

It does move, just when the carriages stick of the back, they take ages to load (the further away, the longer it takes). Even if you don't have it on full load, it will wait till the station is empty.

It could also be signalling problem.

Hmm, it would be nice to see a feature like "fill half of carriages" like there was in Railroad Tycoon 2. I really want to play Locomotion again! I have been very busy on the website recently.

There is, it's called removing the rest!

Very simple way to answer a complex question! Hmm. The double heders are the best. Can u have more than 2 trains?

Try using a ro-ro station, with smaller trains, that should work better.

They are to hard to make! I cant be bothered with ro-ro's. They take to long aswelll if you have lots of trains. and they get stuck.

Well, apparantly, they work much better than terminuses.

Yeah, but trminuseseses are easy to build! Roro s arent. can u come up witha smpler design for a roro that isnt hard to make?

Simple;

RORO station!
