TOPIC: Spreading - Moved from Everything CityBuilder

- Edit by Hawky: This discussion was moved here from topic: openttd.btpro.nl/forum/31-everything-cit...fastest-games-desert -

The rules about spreading is also for the claimed town right? If so those stations with bus/mail are illegal as you are only allowed to have 3 in a row, iirc.

And if im wrong this is an allowed spreading

Ive seen that discussion before. Having that amount of busses/trucks on a 3tile stop would stop it from working. Personally, i don't consider this spreading, if other admins disagree, i'll change my setups in future games.

I reckon a rule of max 3 in a row long time ago. Might have been removed.

Its a funny discussion though when this is considered spreading. Because u dont need even more than 2 stations for mail for it to run fluently. Where u might need more for passengers.


However truckbus station catches 3 range so you can have a gap of 6 per stations

Saber, you can always check the rules here . In case of doubts, because it's impossible the rules specify and cover all possibilities, there's the way of asking an admin (or two, just in case ^^)

Its a good question imo as the rules dont clarify anything about spreading and how it should be done. As i said i remember the rules to be 3 in a row. Or ive been told so. However it seems to be from admin to admin what spreading means. As always

Make some clarified rules with pictures and nail em into stone? its not many at all to cover.

In this case its spreading with 4 tiles to gather more pax. Is this allowed or not and if its allowed it should be allowed on all servers i guess as there is no server specific rules on btpro.

Make some clarified rules with pictures and nail em into stone? its not many at all to cover.

There's situations when 3 stations in a row can be considered illegal spread and others where 5 (only an example) are not. And when most of the players didn't even look our Wiki (maybe you too), it's not very practical create rules/images for every possible case. But since you say that are "not many at all to cover", I challenge you to create images to ALL possible cases, with towns and industries. My thanks in advance
