Hi

Anyone tried it? trackbuildung is horrible...no drag and drop. I think
its more uncomfortable than in the old TTD.

Gets a while to get used to, but I think I like it. It's certainly better
then building the diagonal tracks in TTD...

I couldn't find a way to change the XXX in "wait for full load of XXX"
option - even if the station has been near the ore mine it still wanted to
wait for coal (coal/ore wagons), the same thing happened with
lumber/paper/steel wagons - the only option for XXX has been lumber.

And the time limit for single game is *much* too short.

It is very much like Rollercoaster Tycoon in that regard.

Hold down on the button that adds the entry to the list. It took me a bit
to find it as well.

Yes, much, much too short.

Once you get used to the trackbuilding it has got possibilities, but demo is
far too short. Now if we could get curves in to TTDL......
