The Ground Light Railway Puzzle pieces work as if you were plopping a lot. You will have to use the 'Tab' button to search through it. I'd be happy if it had been the same like normal rail, only if some one would make it. 2.gif

Ground Light Rail (GLR) button can be found in the Miscellenious (can't spell) Transit Menu. If they're not there, you need to uninstall NAM, make sure you don't have any conflicting GLR files (NAM includes the GLR, so if you downloaded a GLR mod from somewhere else you need to delete that), and then redownload and reinstall NAM. make sure the GLR option is selected when you reinstall it.

    Do you have old version of the GLR-mod installed ?

    Here is a screenshot of the menu:

    ty every one i  fixed it, i deleted all mods that had anything to do with transport and deleted and reinstalled nam. it works now.

     
    the only problem now is ........... i dont know anything about how to get the trams. do they 'appear' on random streets when you have a tram station?
     
    do they replace busses/ use bus stations?
     
    do they require a special tram tile?
     
    EDIT:  I now get how trams work,

    The NAM does not include any lots. You need stations on the GLR before you can see the trains. The trains are the same as the elevated rail and subway trains.

    To complete your GLR, download a few GLR stations from the STEX if you have not done so already.

    Be sure you have read about the known problem with puzzle pieces in general. Save often. You will crash your game to the desk top simply by dragging your cursor loaded with a puzzle piece over any transit enabled lot. This is a bug in the invariant part of the exe, so we are not allowed to fool with it.

    Is that GLR-crash not fixed yet? That's why I am not using the GLR option in my gameplay... I hate it when I have to start over when I want to use the GLR... 27.gif

    Believe me, I like the GLR, but I may hope someday that the crash can be fixed somehow 42.gif

    It's a known bug, you can't hover puzzle pieces over transit enabled lots.  Lay the puzzle pieces first, then the stations.

    I am afraid you will never get to use the GLR section of the NAM, nor any of the puzzle pieces. This is a permanent, unfixable problem due to the reluctance of EA to allow the NAM developers to fix the main .exe file.
