Bit overpassed train Station

Jorge_carrillo

This time I am posting to update my jurnal because I need help, I am having problems with te transport system, Particularly in the Train station and the commuting to the Subway System, my stations are just overpassed. If you can help me to find larger capacity stations which do not require larger area I am going to thank you.

Usually I crack open iLive's reader and mess with the lot stats, but it looks like your rail is busy too. Perhaps a subway could alleviate some congestion, or a parallel bridge?

The default Maxis stations that come with the NAM should more than service your needs (I think they have a capacity of around 24000, which while it doesn't sound adequate, should more than service your needs because the station is not a pass-through. What this means is that normal rail traffic that passes through the station adds to it's usage, which is the case with the current station you're using.

 

With the new values for capacity, the MAXIS default station has a functional capacity of around 100 000, which I can almost guarantee is more than the number of people using your existing station to board (and is the only number worth worrying about for non-pass-thru stations).

 

There are other stations available in the new NAM that have higher capacities and similar or smaller footprints to serve your needs.

 

Also, stations typically stop operating at around 4 times the stated capacity. It might be worth it posting to the NAM boards just to show them a rather rare oddity of a station operating beyond this normal limit.

 

Finally, to agree with ROFLyoshi, I would suggest finding a station you like, and simply changing the capacity values in iLive's Reader before you place them in game. A value of around 75 000 seems like it would be a reasonable amount for your usage. I'd avoid going too high simply because it may break the game at extremely high values, though it's always worth a test in a trial region first. Remember that due to a bug, station service does not degrade with usage; it will instead simply stop working beyond a certain point.
