Our networks are really complex and playing together with a lot of people needs a good communication. The coop-players created some special naming conventions, keeping the communication as simple as possible. It is a need to know these conventions to get an idea of the way coop-players play. Mostly they are used to find a special station or hub via the sign- or station list.

• SLH xx / creator name
  • Sideline Hub Number and its Creator
  • Used to mark the Slh's, all know who built the hub and via Signlist the Slh can be found very fast/easy
  • Do not forget to write 1 - 9 as 01 -09, otherwise they are not ordered correctly in the signlist.
  • Do not forget the space before the SLH or the sign is "lost" in the sign-list.
  • example: " SLH 01 / Brianetta"

• BBH xx / creator name
  • Backbone Hub Number and its Creator
  • Used to mark the Hub's, all know who built the hub and via Signlist the Slh can be found very fast/easy
  • Do not forget to write 1 - 9 as 01 -09, otherwise they are not ordered correctly in the signlist.
  • Do not forget the space before the BBH or the sign is "lost" in the sign-list.
  • example: " BBH 01 / Brianetta"

•  !INDUSTRYTYPE ACTION
  • The station names for the Main-Stations
  • The cargo type the station produces or deals with and what happens to the cargo
