Hi everybody.
I bought this recently and although it's great to play, I'm hugely frustrated by the fact that nobody - ever - uses my good lines.
I set up a nice new oil to refinery, refinery to way station and waystation to two cities route and put twelve coaches on it. Got my frequency to about 5 mins on each leg.
Soon the oil and goods are pouring out, almost to max but not one ever uses my line.
What am I missing.
I have goods depots and oil/goods coaches. The link is obviously fine as the coaches are running around fine - empty.
The lack of a manual for this game makes it a steep learning curve. Am I putting my depots in the right place?
Should I put a town depot in a specific place?
How close to the industries do I need to build?
Is there a catchment area?
These are the only things I can think I'm doing wrong.
I would really like to love this game but I'm about to give up.
Tony
