Episode 13 - Transport Fever 2
Replacement Video, as I have to cancel the scheduled Live Stream - Internet instability
We're setting out into the Free Game mode, starting in 1900 on medium difficulty, with the US vehicle set and a small randomly generated 1:3 map. The cities are from Minnesota, there's a giant river running north to south and we're going to connect everything (via a mainline!).

Man, those video transitions really give my eyes whiplash.

@Jules_Diplopia 4 года назад

Simply loving this series...

@GrandT 4 года назад

Thanks Julie :)

@MrDobilina 4 года назад

I've played a few games on the largest size map possible and they've been great fun, but this looks amazing too. Will have to give a 1x3 a go soon, much easier to link things together without getting spaghetti trains and roads all over the place haha :)

@GrandT 4 года назад

I've always gone for the largest maps in the past too. Playing on something this size was surprisingly enjoyable. :)

@Tinhare 4 года назад

Oh, no livestream tonight, such a shame. Oh well, at least we get a video to tide us over. Thanks Grandt for all your excellent content this year and Merry Christmas.

@GrandT 4 года назад

Merry Christmas! And thanks for your support as ever. It's safe to say my internet refuses to let me stream regularly, perhaps it's the singing. :)

@gswedish5669 4 года назад

Enjoyed his last live stream really nice person and very transport pro ;)

Woot, good Holiday episode! I'm seeing more and more to like about TpF2. Still haven't decided when I'll take the plunge. TpF1 will likely remain my go-to railway network building game until sufficient TpF2 British steam-era mods are available, but I might start learning the ropes sooner than originally anticipated.

@GrandT 4 года назад

Cheers! I'd certainly recommend starting this one, if only to get used to the UI and various nuances. :)

@alisonrawlings6679 4 года назад

I was going to watch this vid tomorrow (In UK it's still Xmas eve) but I couldn't resist. Love your content and can't wait for a new year of Tf2 and more

@GrandT 4 года назад

Cheers Alison, Merry Christmas. :)

I think the passengers teleport back home or wherever they’re supposed to go. I don’t actually know, but then again, I’ve never ridden on a disappearing bus before. Also, happy Boxing Day! (at least, it _will_ be by the time you read this)

@GrandT 4 года назад

Happy Boxing Day, and you're correct on the passengers. Vaporising just seemed more elegant.

@mrcjstudio 4 года назад

I am one that loves aesthetics. When it comes to your tracks, one thing you could consider is: - Raising them up off the ground a few feet, paint out the grass especially between the center tracks with a dirt filter, then painting the sides a grayish stone filter, so it looks man made. I think it would make it look even better. You could always create another crude oil well

@andrewreynolds4949 4 года назад

I'm surprised they put in a 4-10-2 and not a 4-8-4 Northern type locomotive. The northern types were as plentiful in the US as 4-6-2 Pacifics were in Britain.

@ethanwhisman1277 4 года назад

We have Pacific in the us But I don't disagree with you I would like to have that train we do have the big boy I personally would like to have the the Challenger in the 484 I'd like to have the big boys entire family of trains But saying that I would also like to have like the B2 it's the b-class of steam engines from Britain some of the Great Western steam cuz I like British steam engines to It's saying I am very happy with what I've seen in the game cuz I thought you went back game it was my Christmas

@ethanwhisman1277 4 года назад

First off Merry Christmas grand T I do agree that the big boy should be reserved for them big long lines but I also agree that you should probably make a free cup right right in the center of the map Now you know why they call him the big boy he weighs a lot any strong he he he he he

@GrandT 4 года назад

Merry Christmas Ethan!

@Shaunus82 4 года назад

I definitely would have put a 9000 on that oil line. In fact, I did on my map, and even with a full load, it never "batted an eyelid" going up the steep inclines. I even had my station lower down than your's is, so it was even more of a climb, but I did put a tunnel through the hill between the well, and the refinery. It is great though to see how people do things differently. It is a bit of a shame there is only one oil well on the map, but you could always use sandbox mode and place another one in, if you wanted to.

@GrandT 4 года назад

The oil train is currently just using the shunter/local line which has only one medium gradient out of the Refinery, when return to the wells empty. Once the last phase is complete, we'll have a larger loco to handle the Hibbing climb. And it is a shame about only one oil field, but as long as everything is serviced (even partially), the map is technically a win, without the need for sandbox. Before we even started laying rail, the map had its limits, and we play within those.

@OkenWS 4 года назад

@@GrandT Is there any decent way of measuring gradients? Eyeballing it is so difficult because of the weird camera and it seems too important a game mechanic to just be an educated guess.

@GrandT 4 года назад

The gradient/contour layer is the only way I know of, combined with forced gradients at the cost of cuttings, tunnels and bridges.

@derrickjones8149 4 года назад

Happy Christmas Day (Wednesday), GrandT! ;o)

@GrandT 4 года назад

Merry Christmas Derrick!

@slumpdogyt 4 года назад

You should of put a big boy onto that oil line instead of 2 loco's. That big boy could do it solo without a hitch

@emb11p0 4 года назад

really enjoy the series, could you post a save file for episode 13 I really screwed up somewhere while trying to follow you pls and thanks

@spatrompete2601 4 года назад

At 8.20 the junction why did you not pulled across all 2 tracks with one track and than click on the first track to get swap that as a double junction looks much nice :-)

@GrandT 4 года назад

Speed mainly, a double slip switch is super slow, so I don't ever want trains crawling over it at ~25mph. The other option would be to have the southbound crossover after the gates (more realistic in that situation, yet that would hold up northbound trains longer).

@JrC-Creations 4 года назад

Hi Grand, love your videos as usual, but I feel like the road bridge you made around 26:00 is not straight and looks it’s going up on the wrong side. Also I’m feeling you’re playing this like TpF1 and not really using the new features apart from the modular station. Use one way roads and roundabouts for your trucks, plan the flow better. Also the rail junctions being at grade will eventually clog up if the traffic increases like the one you made near Hibbing. To me that should be a flyover with a diagonal connection to the main line below as the trains seems to just cross each other’s paths. The connection is just a single track so trains from the depot can access the branch. Sorry if I’m not clear.

@GrandT 4 года назад

Thanks for the feedback. As for the road bridge that's an optical illusion, it's perfectly straight (just double checked in game) but the ground is higher one side. As for trucks, you may have me confused with someone else? I only have 3 truck hubs. Hibbing Food which is drip fed and sits waiting with no interference. Grand Rapids Construction, which sits and waits for a train connection, and sits and waits with no interference. The last one (which uses a one way system and linked truck stations), is Minneapolis Hub for drip fed Construction and delivery of tools via rail. And finally, the Hibbing Northeast mainline freight junction is not used very often, a flyover would be a waste of money in game and real life. The maximum throughput that junction will ever see is: 2 Grain trains (once per year each), and shared crude oil shunt with mainline fuel production. The shunter is the only one which is bidirectional over the junction.

@JrC-Creations 4 года назад

GrandT oh I see, I’ve might have misunderstood something. The junction ideia was just cause it triggered me a little as it was, also since the trains are quite long it might block for a little. But I’m ok now after noticing is basically one train up and down. And the road bridge perhaps could go down maybe, instead of being flat? It would smooth the gradient going down to meet the city. Thanks for the reply 👋🏼

@JrC-Creations 4 года назад

GrandT something I forgot, the crossing near Minneapolis could become a problem with the trucks being held at the crossing as the rail traffic increases

@GrandT 4 года назад

It might be, I've got my eye on it. We're running at maximum throughput on those trucks, so they're always waiting on production and delivery. I think there's only one more train to head that way, and that's the Ore train, if I don't decide to combine it with the coal mine.

@spatrompete2601 4 года назад

Yeah i hope someone is converting the fly over I’m missing it on my map :-p I really could need it for the Dresden Main Station
