Any ideas?

Yes, OK, that worked. I copied the file across, generating two exemplar files. I copied and replaced the three lines you had highlighted, from the original into the park file, as well as the Item Icon line. I then deleted original exemplar, reindexed, rebuilt, and saved. Unfortunately it still seems as though the lot is transit enabled when I tried plopping it again. It is getting late enough that I will have to try it again (earlier) tomorrow evening. I'm too tired to post screenshots or a text file of the changes now. If I try the whole process again fresh tomorrow maybe I'll get it right. Thank you for all of you help though. You've put me on the right track- I just need to get the details sorted out right.

OK. I'm giving it a go. But I'm already running into trouble. I've got one of the commuter station files up in 'Loaded DAT', and a different eyecandy railway platform lot as well (I assume this should work for when you say 'park'). I'm a bit confused as to which I should copy- it reads that I should copy the eyecandy over to the functional lot, since I want to remove the functionality, but then you describe it the other way 'round. Either way, I can't seem to copy either one over to the other. I copy entry ID from one, paste entry ID to the other, but nothing changes in the display. Same exemplar name, type, etc. etc. different between the two files. What am I missing? This is the lot whose behavior I'd like to emulate:

^This sounds much easier than the first option. I had half-heartedly tried in the lot editor before, but could never even find the file. I'll wait a day or two for a reply to see whether this is something that someone else (that knows how) may be interested in fixing and redistributing, or if not I'll give it a go on my own. The problem I experience is that with multiple active stations lined up next to each other traffic seems to get very confused.

I really love these commuter stations, but I'd like if the platform lots were not functional- they seem to cause routing/path problems when they behave as functional stations. I'd like the main station to stay as it is, and the rest of the platfrom lots to be eye-candy. I have tried, but just can't figure out how to do this on my own in the lot-editor. Can someone help me out? I've searched for Armagin, but can't seem to find him active in any of the forums here or SC4D. Asking here instead of ressurecting threads from 2010. Link to STEX files here: Thanks in advance for any help you can give, including references on how to do this on my own.

Yes, finally. Thank you. Not to sound ungrateful, but it's about time. I know you guys did a lot more than just fix this one glitch, and I really do appreciate it. Thanks again and a million more times.
