(I don't even know the proper word for bulk truck's cargo space in hungarian)

"Body" would be the usual word in the UK

[Alberth]

Great improvement, so much good from a little red paint

[andythenorth]

Improving the dump trucks...

[colossal404]

Nice job! Back to the original TTD style?

All your livestock: transported.

Thank you very much for developing this set. I really like the whole vehicle list . In which version of the set you plan to add the display of different cargoes (coal, iron ore, etc.)

In which version of the set you plan to add the display of different cargoes (coal, iron ore, etc.)

Working on it at the moment I'm figuring out how to automate it. That takes a bit longer to setup, but makes it easier to support more variety of cargo sprites in future.

Dump trucks already have cargo sprites, flatbed trucks will be likely done next.

I wish you successes in work on Road Hog! Waiting for the next update .

Vassmo.png (727.89 KiB) Viewed 6693 times

A busy township in 1911. Vassmo town is penetrated by five cargo tram routes: The Rackwood flatbeds carry wood from two forests in the south to a paper mill in the north. The Poptops carry milk in transit from two farms to the dock at Holslett farm. The Catchcans carry oil from an Oil well south of the town to a refinery north of it. I'm looking forward to actually see racks of wood on the Rackwoods

Fishing by tram. Supposedly they put their rods out of the windows. There's a major fishing harbor on the other side of the continent, and this was the easiest way to get the fish there. The Sparkford Reefers haul a handsome profit.

Fishing by tram.

Nicely played.

Cargo graphics are getting closer, the compositing code is done, with support for logs, planks and paper. Now need sprites for more cargos.

Meanwhile, improved tram...

Beta 4 never made it to Bananas, but seems no-one noticed.

Beta 5 is now up on Bananas. Enjoy.

Thanks for updating Road Hog. Now I just try to play with this set in the game. I managed to wait until sprites cargo. Thanks again

Are you planning something else to add? .

Are you planning something else to add? .

Currently:
- more cargo graphics
- reworked / improved trams

Spotted a bug in the nomenclature: The "Runwell Open Truck" looks very much like a box truck.
