Researchers Required!

Anyone who is willing to provide information about railways in their particular country, could they please contact myself by private message, or replying to this thread.

Initially Ireland will act as a "test" version as I can access the information required to get the game running.

Thanks,
Stephen

Initally the main task required here is getting stations, tracks and milages. Unline airline sims where a plane goes from A to B as you all know trains are restricted by track. What I plan to do is in someways simply the proceedure of "path finding" and allow (regardless of layout) trains to use tracks that join in a station, even if its hard to do so in real life. When I get Airline Mogul running properly I will get back to this one. Please bare in mind that due to the complexity of this type of sim I plan to make it payware but with a free game or time limited demo.

Will contributers get a discount?

Also, will it be like Railroad Tycoon II or something?

Discount yes,

Graphics not sure!

I wasn't expecting the graphics....but the gameplay. If you wanted graphics I might be able to do some simple stuff with GMAX.

I am just a mere web programmer, computer programming is way outside my abilities! (I've done some gMAX work aswell but building a game engine etc is just nothing I can accomplish at this time)
