China Set: Trains is the train sector of the China set of OpenTTD. It is developed by China Set Team, which can be found in Part 6.
- OpenTTD 1.4.0-beta1 or nightly r26157, or higher
- Not compatible with TTDPatch
OpenTTD: see https://wiki.openttd.org/NewGRF
This NewGRF is available from the ingame Online Content.
Purchase and running costs can be defined using NewGRF parametres. Default parametres are:
Purchase cost setting: 25%
Running cost setting: 25%
Cargo age period, which affects the devaluing of cargo as time goes, can be extended using NewGRF parametres. Default is "Standard". "Long" is "Standard" doubled, while "Very Long" is "Long" Doubled. Even in "Standard" mode, cargo age period varies depending on wagon types.
Everything in this set is Mainland China rolling stock, in addition of several wagon types from international/interregional connections.
Locomotives and multiple units featuring refitting are for deciding the speed and traction effort suitable for freight or passenger operations and/or livery refitting.
When livery refitting is available, the default setting is year-dependent livery. That means when the livery is scheduled be changed between specific years, locomotive, multiple unit or coach will automatically update to the next livery.
The next option is build year livery, which means that locomotive, multiple unit or coach will remain on the livery scheme as built. It overrides the automatic update of livery, enabling former livery being usable on the time when it's not otherwise available anymore.
The third option is to manually choose a livery from liveries already introduced.
Speed and traction effort can be choosed at the same time (if locomotive or multiple unit has one) with year-dependent, build year or manual livery.
Wagon refitting behaves as in normal OpenTTD, there is cargo-specific graphics on major part of wagons.
Some wagons will appear too "tubeous" on consist. If you do notice too tubeous wagons on consist, please report them to the China Set Dev Team.
Information regarding rolling stock is provided from realiable sources. Errors may exist, do report them when encountered.
Q: Why can't I use this in older versions of OpenTTD or TTDPatch?
A: This NewGRF uses some features only available to OpenTTD r26157 and newer. Furthermore, the most recent version of NML used to build this NewGRF, produces GRF version 8. This is only supported by OpenTTD r23166 and newer anyways.
