Re: [Rails-devel] Planned Release 1.7.0

[Stefan F. <ste...@we...>]

Frederick:
thanks a lot for your list:
You have added a lot of sweet sugar to the UI.

If time permits I will add a predefined configuration which has all your 
options enabled.

One thing that strikes me that it is now so easy to (by clicking on the
company logo) to initiate the revenue output which was mainly intended
to be a testing tool. I would prefer a behavior which only displays the 
current routes (and/or displays the current revenue value) and does not 
allow to add trains (especially not trains which are not available in
that specific game).

Stefan
