The game started building railroads!!!

Sat Jul 02, 2011 6:00 pm

Funny this. Suddenly a couple of colony regions in Missouri gained railroads on their own. As I wasn't watching that are at the time I didn't notice to I rolled the game back and it still happened and it was when a build roads mission completed. Another odd thing I noticed was a region now shows a railroad without any line on the map and in Minnesota I have a double track railroad which I don't think I have the ability to build...

Is this something anyone else has noticed

The version is the h patch

the more I play this the more I become convinced that RUS is one of the best strategy games I have ever played... and I have played many since the mid 80's. The AI in this mod is at level with Sid Meier's best efforts.

Colonial mission to build a road upgrades whatever is there.
So 4x mission seems to take you from no road > track > road > railroad > double railroad.

In one sense it's a cheap way to get double railroads (heck, I can't even build them from the economic mode screen yet) However you only get so many missions, it's a big world and a few years in, railroads don't seem so expensive. Better to use the mission for actual colonization IMHO. Plus I wouldn't be surprised if the railroad/double railroad upgrades by this method get removed at some point. It's a little too easy.

I'd sussed that when I noticed that it was allowing road in places that has a road already. It is a bug I reckon since the tootip for the mission explicitly says that track is the highest for this. Otherwise a railroad for only a few 10's of cash and manufactures is a bit of a bargain
