If you still need it, here's a complete 18AL game. Mike Bourke Campaign Mastery http://www.campaignmastery.com Co-author, Assassins Amulet http://www.legaciescampaignsetting.com -----Original Message----- From: Stefan Frey [mailto:ste...@we...] Sent: Tuesday, 10 April 2012 2:33 AM To: Development list for Rails: an 18xx game Subject: Re: [Rails-devel] Bug in 1830 Coalfields. Follow-up: I have pushed my current implementation to sourceforge, branch rails1.7.x I have added new messages to indicate both rusting of trains and trains get obsolete, the message for obsolescence depends on the method chosen. Those changes make all test cases temporarily fail, as soon as I have go the ok for the new messages from Erik, I will update the reference files for the test cases. Implementation details: I have added the feature as an attribute "obsoleteTrainFor"to TrainManager tag in Game.xml, which appears to me the better location than GameParameter as I considered before. Possible values are documented on the wiki page for Game.xml. Current settings are ALL for 1830 coalfield and readings variants EXCEPT_TRIGGERING for 18TN and 18AL I have tested that it works for 18TN, however there is no test case that lets the 4 train get obsolete for 18AL. If someone could send me a game save file that gets beyond that phase, please send it to me directly. Stefan Erik: sure as I already found out where it occurs, most likely it is easier for me to achieve that. And it is still some of the places where I am currently getting adjusted to Rails 2.0 setup due to my changes to Portfolio :-) However I still have a question open: There is currently reporting to the ReportWindow about trains rusting and trains getting obsolete (only about trains rusting after being obsolete before). There are messages "TrainsObsolete" and "TrainsRusted" in LocalisedText which do not occur in the java code, only "TrainsObsoleteRusted". I suspect this is not a required feature, however I still want to make sure that I do not break something.
