Public Server Game 262

Game Date:	27.06.2013 - 16.07.2013
Usual suspects:	Vinnie, Sylf, mfb, V453000, Maraxus, Anson, ZxBiohazardZx, scshunt, Steverov, fonsinchen (extend)
Gametype:	Cargo Cargodist
Trainlength:	TL 5
Mapsize:	512 x 512 Artic
Version used:	r25575 #openttdcoop-GRF-Pack 8.0
Remarks:	This game we experimented some more with cargodist. We made the trains refit to their secondary and then drop their cargo in each of the 8 SLH drops before returning to their primary. A nice idea but in practice we encountered problems with conditional orders that either break cargodist links or do not fully unload cargo. Many trains were driving around empty with minimal (e.g half of one car full) loads. Because of these problems the interest in this particular game became to low to continue. So we ended with a little over 666 trains.

One of the BBH's in the network

Public Server Game 261

Game Date:	11.06.2013 - 27.06.2013
Usual suspects:	Sylf, mfb, LoPo, Maraxus, Vinnie, Brumi, ZxBiohazardZx, scshunt, fonsinchen (extend)
Gametype:	Pax Cargodist
Trainlength:	TL 5
Mapsize:	512 x 512 Temperate
Version used:	r25385 #openttdcoop-GRF-Pack 8.0
Remarks:	We tried the brand new feature that was committed to OpenTTD trunk lately - cargo distribution. We started by coop's standard ICE/SBahn networks. Most players were puzzled by how passengers decided on their destinations and their routes. And many didn't bother to try to solve the cargo balance issue too seriously. Players quickly lost interest in this game, so we're abandoning this game incomplete.

The network of train connections, most of them are served well
