NewGRF Aircraft Cargo Capacities Patch (GRF callback 15)
Posted: 29 Apr 2006 15:22
This patch implements newGRF callback 15 for aircraft. It is intended to be used with my Planeset patch (link in sig.). It enables the correct cargo capacities for Planeset freight aircraft. The Ruslan in particular is now much more usable . It also ensures that the Ruslan is built carrying coal instead of passengers.
There is one known problem, the Ruslan shows the incorrect cargo capacity in the purchase window (37 tonnes of coal should be 150 tonnes). The problem is due to a workaround in Planeset of a TTDPatch bug,. For more info see here. DaleStan has said he will correct this in the next release of Planeset.
Thanks to peter1138 for his improvements to GRF support over to last few days, making this patch possible.
If you want to try this patch you will also need to add the Planeset patch - it won't do much otherwise! I have posted a win32 exe compiled with both patches, but I think we need to persuade Richk67 to add this to the next miniIN.
Edit: Patch removed as it's now in the trunk 09/06/06
Edit: win32 exe removed as it was well out-of-date 23/06/06. An exe with the latest Planeset 1.5 patch (and others) is here
