Can't get things to intersect..

[paulmcgrath 0]

No matter what I do I can't get toll booths, elevated rail lines with stations etc to join up. Is there a patch for this?

I had no problems with this before, but I've only reinstalled the game again today after not playing it for a few months.

BTW, it's the Deluxe version.

After you did your install, did you reapply Update 1?  This is needed even for Deluxe.

I've got all the updates installed, here's a screen-grab of the problem I'm having. When I try dragging the rail through the station it says that it can't intersect reserved tiles or something like that. There's nothing in the tiles alreadys.

Am I the only one having this problem?

Another thing that's happening is the parks aren't showing up when I place them.

There is something wrong with your screen shot.  It cuts off somehow.  Please repost it.

Also, please note that the limit is 800 x 600.

Sorry, FTP went down when I uploaded it and only managed to reupload it now.

Can anyone give me a solution to the problem?

I have this same problem! I can't get rail road stations, elevated rails or anything to connect to each other.

I was having this same problem when I was using the vanilla version. They wouldn't connect when I tried to put them together and got the space like U have in your screenshot. I was able to connect them though by running a section about three tiles long starting just before the space and ending it just after the space. The alignment looked like it was off by a tile (to the side) when I tried to connect them, but this was some kind of illusion from the grid. When I installed rush hour, the problem went away.

That's better.  There is no reason you can't connect unless your terrain is not level at the point of connection.  Try dragging the tracks out of the station onto the line.  This will only fail if you are not in alignment.  The EL to subway looks out of line.  Try moving it back a little, then drag.

I've had this issue before when altering the terrain near the stations in your picture and other transit-enabled lots. I ended up having to bulldoze them and re-plop them. It appears something is wron with your installation, though. There should be textures under the stations on those lots in your picture. I would suggest re-installing the game as it seems something got damaged in the install process.

Good point. swamper77, thanks for that.

Reconcile Edges does that. I also see a transparent texture under the stations...?
