i know im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an instagram account? I somehow forgot my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me.
As far as I can make out (from my limited gameplay knowledge), you need to increase frequency of the trains; they don't like waiting as much as they don't like expensive trains. EDIT: You answer your own question with the end credits/rambling; but it's nice to know we've come to the same conclusion
Boy, you're uploading at a furious rate this week. Keep'em coming! There's really a little something about this game. I get the feeling that by the end of the week-end I'll break my 'no early-access' rule and buy it just to lay some tracks and get some pixels on the go in sandbox mode.
I've really enjoyed this series so far, hope you stick with it for a little while longer. That refund business needs a serious look at by the developers though. I agree with you, if the fair is too high then they don't get on, not wait till they're at their destination then just demand their money back.
Sorry if its already said, or you've worked it out, but the reason your trains domt rock at full tempo, is down to your ideal speed. It only goes as fast as required to achieve an average of your ideal speed over the leg. I think you need to set your ideal speed so its going just under its max on the fast section of rail.
Consider for a moment that you CAN create the trans-continental railroad or the trans-Siberian railway, or as the Colonel wants, the Pan-American bullet! And leaving money aside, just laying the little pieces of track to get that done makes you realize the scope of those things! (Of course, they didn't really have the worries about roads back in the day.) To use Railway Empire as a comparison, the full USA map just doesn't give you a sense for the distance, really.
I guess that too. It needs an exceptable interval of trains, Carlos the dev said. I would assume every 10 -20 minutes for trains and something about 3-10 minutes for trams would be appropriate.
It depends upon the logic which refunds are granted. In some regions/systems, if the train is delayed or arrives late for incidents within the railway's control, the full fare is refunded. But if the passenger just don't like the fare at the onset they should walk instead. I see the game is on the steam workshop, on reduced price until 2nd February so that gives me some time to still decide. I'm still building my taj-mahal of a casino.
To make it easier for you to pronounce names, let me explain: lot of the names are in Nahuatl or another native language. Spanish has no "w" but Nahuatl does: when you see the combinations of "HUx" (where x is a vowel), it's trying to assimilate the sound of "W". So Tehuacan is actually pronounced "Tewacan".
@@colonelfailure Another pronunciation tip: Once you get to having to read native american names (probably not until you exit both Mexico and the American Southwest, so probably not before the series ends at the current rate of progress) things are pretty much spelled phonetically so scary looking names like "Oconomowoc" (located in Waukesha county Wisconsin to continue the example) you literally pronounce it as its written, and this tends to work across the country for native american town names
Acceleration curves are aggressive... soooooooo the Colonel is also the driver I guess. I've seen your passenger train videos! By the way, this series needs at least one passenger announcement. :)

This game must become a full transport game. Trucks, ships and planes.
So I have a hypothesis about your refund issue! I am going to assume that a passenger on your tram down in your first town pays the 1 dollar flat price + 400 to go to the next town + 400 to go to the next town + 5 Dollar flat to reach that station. Which is 806 dollars and they think your price gouging them.... What if you Set Everything the big trains and trams to your original 1 Dollar per KM price as that would then cost them closer to 250ish instead if those Rail lines are indeed approximately 100KM each. (Basically I think your confusing your passengers on the cost because you keep switching up how the ticket prices are set)
I really don`t understand how this game works. I played it, thousands passangers want to go to a random place; prices are impossible to set right... But still, it`s early access, maybe they will make it better in time. Also, I left my computer going for a night to earn some money for expansion, I had a set of profitable lines, but I earned like for one tram line :D
Seems the refund system is broken by the "combined price". Is the only way to make the tram ride utterly separate from the train ride to separate the stations?
I think the pricing problem is because when they get off one inter city train which cost them $400 they have to buy another ticket that costs $400 again to ride another train.
This is the first series ive seen from him. The game looks good and honestly his voice is so smooth im subbing keep the nimby rail goin . Im making 9 mill a day from nyc alone
How's this for a theory. Most of the passengers will be going city centre to city centre. No problem at Puebla, as all transfer to and from the centra are roughly equidistant, A different matter at Mexico City. You have terminated the line at the station furthest away from the centre, so they need transfers. Transfering to the yellow cisrcle, they go only one stop, and transfer again to the central red line to the actual City Centre, 3-4 stops max. If they use the purple line, they travel right round the city (6 stops) before changing onto the red line, givig a total of 9-10 stops. Instead they get off at the first purple stop and demand their money back to pay the taxi fare. You didn't check the red line in the video, so I can't say whether this is actually the case or not. The best solution I can suggest, is to somehow run the Intercity line into the red/yellow/purple interchange, or reroute the red line to meet at the Intercity terminal and see if that makes a material difference. On a diffeent poimt, can I assume there is no freight movement in this game?
Yellow line passenger are probably tranfering to the red line, so they may be asking for refund on the red line and thats why the yellow one doesnt have that many people unhappy with the price
A constant problem nowadays with all that early access games, because everything could be changed in the next update anyway. Better waiting for the final release, but even then, there is often no manual available anymore. Sometimes there is a "wiki", which is relied on fans to write their experiences in it... or not.
Colonel... if you wanna really boost your income.. get a second train on each of the inter city trains... you'll have less people waiting, and you'll rack in more fares
I am struggling to assign a new train to a new route..not associated with a pre-existing route. Tried just about everything. Hoping to see you do this...
More trains on the loopers. Looks like you have a gap because there aren't enough trains to saturate the whole line at the headway you're running. EDIT: Cripes, you figured it out. That'll teach me to comment as I watch.
Your pink line lacks a few trams; so people have to wait longer than for the yellow line. Watch the line; there is a hole between the trams that have the right interval. Forget it; yellow has the same hole. And sounds like you figured it out. Note: this one didn't show up in my notifications. Snowtopia did.
My guess is that the Mexico city tram is just ineffective. Putting up with a long and slow circular route after getting off a high speed line with passengers that are already slightly irked is just too much for them. I think having short back and forth tram lines, with maybe a single fast line to get to the other side of the city, may work better. If you can keep tram routes as just feeder infrastructure for your main lines, without trying to turn them into an urban commute system, then it may work better for you.
I think the line is bugged. You set the orange one to 300km/h, at one point you checked the speed of the purple one and it said 300 so you changed it to 30km/h.. At the end of the video the orange line is now changed to 30km/h. So I think they are bugged causing the passengers expectations to not be met thus causing a refund maybe
I think what would help this game is if you had an option to where you could actually go in and just watch the trains I'm kind of like machiki yes they could be generic train trains but if you could just sit there and train spot or just watch all your vehicles go around I think it would make the game a lot better
I assume the game is smart enough that a simple overpass wouldn't quite cut it for say a rail from Los Angeles to Hawai'i, so how much would that cost as a viaduct?
The h is silent homeboy, pronounced Te-wa-can , Almost all “H’s” are silent in Spanish. The letter (Jota/”J”)is our H sound in Spanish. However, this particular word (Tehuacán) is not of Spanish origin. It’s actually Spanish spelling/pronunciation of an indigenous language word, coming from the language known as: Nahuatl. You did pretty good tho, that emphasis on the last a is correct pronunciation
I will give you the fact that this game definitely has major flaws in logistics. The dominant ones you showcase in this episode and a couple of other smaller ones I noticed myself while playing it today myself.
I suggest that you pause or nuke the heck yeah and let the trams stabilise and then try to fix the heck yeah, if it still doesn’t work blame the expensive train and whack a cheap one on the heck yeah
Brother - Tehuacan is Tay-who-a--CAN. The city names on the Mexico map you are having a problem with are not Spanish; they are Nahuatl words (from the language of the Nahua - Mayan - people of Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador) . Try this one: Parangaricutirimícuaro (Pah-rang-a-REE, coo-teer-ee-ME, kwah-row) - once you say it correctly it actually rolls off the tongue. :) It is a city in Michoacan (Meech-oh-ah-CAN), Mexico where there are many Mayan pyramids. You're going to do a forehead slap on this one. You are having a problem with pronouncing Mazatlan. That is Maz-at-LAN. Of course you've heard of that very famous go-to vacation resort city. LOL!
On Chimalhuacan, isn't that where that mental guy was going around decapitating people after he watched a British series (later to be found out as Silent Witness)? It might not be Chimalhuacan...or mexico...

This my favorite series, keep making NIMBY Rail videos!
I feel like I'm in a board meeting and I love it.
I can only agree

loving this utter grind of a series

I mean this is pretty obvious ig but "Menisem Roleva" stands for "Siemens Velaro" (AVE Class 103, ICE 3, etc.)

My guess is too many people waiting at the station too long, the ride is fine, the not riding is bad

You should make the California High Speed Rail route as pitched to the voters.

Helpful! Now I shall try to remember it.

wait... Spanish doesn't have a "W"? I have lived my entire life not knowing this fact. Thanks!
@@Trainguyrom This also appears to work for Maori names. I wonder how long it'll take the Colonel to get to New Zealand.

Love the game soo much. Currently building Texas HSR

Just one tram line
He could do a great “im batman”
I have been know to...
By the end you were actually pronouncing Tehuacan correctly. Good episode!

I would recomend building a large comuterbelt on the surfline(san diego- san francisco)
:P
Also,Love the series so far :D
AAAAAAlso
If its around mid-night its late evening where you buid and operate
:D
Yellow line passenger are probably tranfering to the red line, so they may be asking for refund on the red line and thats why the yellow one doesnt have that many people unhappy with the price
How good is the documentation of the game? The refund parameters should be explained...
A constant problem nowadays with all that early access games, because everything could be changed in the next update anyway. Better waiting for the final release, but even then, there is often no manual available anymore. Sometimes there is a "wiki", which is relied on fans to write their experiences in it... or not.
I love watching these sort of videos, I find rather interesting I must say
Colonel... if you wanna really boost your income.. get a second train on each of the inter city trains... you'll have less people waiting, and you'll rack in more fares
Hi, love your videos. I lived in Mexico for a while and can tell you it is pronounced te-wa-CAN.
I am struggling to assign a new train to a new route..not associated with a pre-existing route. Tried just about everything. Hoping to see you do this...
That's a bug. I think it has been fixed in beta already
Your ideal speed on the heck yeah is only 30kmh, is this the issue?
More trains on the loopers. Looks like you have a gap because there aren't enough trains to saturate the whole line at the headway you're running. EDIT: Cripes, you figured it out. That'll teach me to comment as I watch.
Yes my favorite series!
My new favorite series!
Maybe push the heck yeah stations a bit further out of town and make a very short transfer line to the trams and make it for free. Just an Idea.
Where can you get your hands on this masterpiece?
Steam
Your pink line lacks a few trams; so people have to wait longer than for the yellow line. Watch the line; there is a hole between the trams that have the right interval.
Forget it; yellow has the same hole. And sounds like you figured it out.

18:40 it wasnt updating, because another day dawned. LEL
I think you need to check the red line in Mexico City for refunds because those passengers on the yellow line are transferring to the red line.
What should i do when a station of a regional line is overcrowded ? Im losing tons of money in compensations :(
Regional trains dont have that much of pax capacity
My guess is that the Mexico city tram is just ineffective. Putting up with a long and slow circular route after getting off a high speed line with passengers that are already slightly irked is just too much for them.

Woah. Double upload, or is it a mistake?
Watch, before he realises if so.
Purple line have a avg. branch wait in 30s.... can be that the problem?
Close, yes.
I love the tipping Point
Deeeeelightful! enjoying the series!
Its it because the purple tram is all waiting and people dont like it?
I should have wait till the end to write that ;)
Let's include a not in my backyard joke shall we?
I assume the game is smart enough that a simple overpass wouldn't quite cut it for say a rail from Los Angeles to Hawai'i, so how much would that cost as a viaduct?
Multiply the distance in kms per 10million
So for example a 600km viaduct would be 6.000.000.000.000€ i think
don't even try that would be way too expensive. on the other hand, maybe it's not such a bad idea if you can manage it.
Your purple line bulldozed my house =(
Get nae naes

I see you have gone to Mexico to make money lol. Last time I watched this you were in the UK.
That was for demonstration purposes, but people seem to dig it so I took on a far-too-big project.
