Territory triggers are tricky. IIRC, you check a per-territory box and (for just one) fill in the ID number of the destination. Then you find the function for hauling cargo to territory from territory and feed it the amount, cargo ID, and source territory ID. It has been so long that I forget the exact format, but I know that US History has one for hauling passengers from Washington DC to Galt's Gulch. EDIT: Galt's Gulch (event 662 in my spread sheet) is too complex, but Seattle (716) looks like one worth emulating. It uses a function called CompanyTerritoryLoadsHauledFromLifetimeToTerritory(#) where you pass in the "from" terr-ID and it returns the number of loads. Combined with other conditions (player company, destination territory ID), you should get what you want.

Does anyone here have experience with Kalypso's Railroad Empire (or Railroad Empire 2)? If so, how does it compare to the venerable RR Tycoon II? Does it have a scenario builder / map editor to support user-created content? (I haven't found any yet).

That's over 2 billion, which when expressing thousands would accommodate 2 trillion dollars, both plus and minus. Since RR Tycoon doesn't suffer inflation like the real world does, 2 trillion should be adequate for all cash amounts in the game.

Isn't the smallest increment of money something like $1000? The overflow bugs could have been pushed out by a factor of 1000 if only the internal storage was number of thousands (just add ',000' to every display).

Excellent research -- Yes, that answers my question perfectly.

It never recovered?

Aha... It's that month delay that I never put together. When you delivered pax and the demand went down, did it decline at both stations (eventually), or just the one receiving the delivery?

I can't recall seeing that before. I've made a note to check on it (might be weeks before I play though). Let us know if the effect is repeatable, especially on other maps.

I can't recall if anyone ever discovered how to extract loco graphics. If you do succeed, then please upload (and tell us what you learned about extracting, editing and recompiling).

Sorry, I can't help you. My RT-2 (and SimCity-4 etc) runs on a dedicated old-game desktop machine that still boots Win-98 pro (where I suppressed a couple of troublesome updates too). It's well beyond its approved life, but it will never upgrade if I can help it.

I don't recall Blue Baron, but I do have my own tips scattered among the many comments on this site. The biggest: 1) Cross lines on diagonals that meet at a point -- Trains can pass through each other at full speed because they never share the same square. 2) When electrifying, first build non-electric track. Then add wires starting from the southeast and upgrading just one tile at a time. You end up paying for just the first link -- all 1-tile extensions to the north and west are free (you'll learn the exact compass points through experience).

I have never heard the name "Supernova" (wrt Thunderbird) before now.

Ubuntu has been upgrading TB without asking permission for years now (since about the same time the sync broke between WIn-10 and Linux), and there's no way to even ask it to wait until I'm ready. Likewise Firefox -- It'll sometimes become unusable in the middle of the day because it has upgraded without my knowledge or consent, and then I'm forced to restart it, even losing work / losing my browsing place(s).

How democratic! Once upon a time, it was possible for Firefox and Thunderbird to each have one profile on one shared partition used by both Win-10 and Ubuntu on my dual-boot machine. I could then achieve "synchronization" internally because each version literally read the same files as the other. Then some genius broke one of the cardinal design laws of all Mozilla applications by making OS-dependent versions of one or more files in their profiles, forcing me (I hate being forced) to assign my profiles to one OS and abandon the other. Now when I ask about synchronization, I am told to upload all of my (personal and private) email and browsing data to Mozilla's cloud. Like Hell I will.

There's life... I'll download your maps.
