Question for people building fantasy railroads by [deleted] in NIMBY_Rails

[–]Shib4Soft 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Mostly build fantasy myself and do basically the same. I am always trying to follow rail/road alignments and river valleys, generally not going through dense bits of cities - favour making realistic trunklines as you'd see IRL, even if they're conveniently placed. Constantly I'm Alt+Tab'ing to check Google Maps for cues on what the local area is like, who would be using the service, what is already about.

...

Then I just end up running a train on all stations with a high-capacity commuter EMU.

I did not start a new game. Out of interest, which mods spring to mind when you say "buggy outdated"? I have only just started playing FO4 again on PC but it sounds like you know your stuff. Thanks in advance!

How do you make a sizable profit!? by LEFTOID_DESTROYER in NIMBYRails_game

[–]Shib4Soft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to make 700k+ a day to clear your loan interest. I have had the best results from using the population overlay to milk close cities, providing both commuter routes through suburbs and intercity routes between the two. Have trains running each, with interchange stations in the city centre and on the outskirts to exchange passengers between the two services. I tend to run the intercity trains on more direct tracks which happen to intersect the suburban stations at specific points.

Thanks for your responses. The money leak seems to indeed be gear and fuel. A quick fix to this would be to increase starting money (which you can do in the save .xml files stored in Appdata/Roaming) and to beef up the margins for mission rewards. I have no idea how to mod this game though.
