Hi Folks!

I think that I´ve found in two Scenarios wrong (Port-) Tiles, look at the Screens (without any MODS installed):

DLC 1939, Poznan Scenario, at 16,15



DLC 1941, Streets of Moscow Scenario, at 24,20; 24,22; 21,13; 19,13; 22,12 AND more...!



And now for comparison real port Tiles from Crete Scenario:



When I´ve been not completely blind, there are in Screen #1 and #2 Port Tiles at wrong places...

Maybe the Devs can check this please and fix this in the next patch...?!

Thx in advance,
Magic

I already told you, those are not ports, they're rail stations. That's a different type of tile, just looks similar.

No, sorry, I don´t believe that and therefore I must disagree!

Because look at ...\Graphics\Tiles Folder. There you´ll find a file "LayerPorts.png" and open this with IrfanView or a similar program. Then you´ll see, that is exactly the tile, that I´ve posted in my first two screenshots, therefore a port!

A rail station is the file "LayerStations", and that looks completely other than in my screenshots!

If this is a port tile, then I've never seen the corret railstation tile. In every single scenario where a railstation was it always looked like this. E.g. in the first scenario of 1942 where you have to protect the evacuees and send those 4 trains south each to one rail station? each station looked exactly like this. So if this is wrong, then it's wrong everywhere.

Yes, maybe that´s correct!

I´ve an example for you, what an rail station is (from Kampinoska Forest Scenario):



Only the little buildings that I´ve marked is a rail station!

Why not both?

Hm.., my Scenario Editor tells me, that that's a railway station

...but not in Streets of Moscow Scenario when I load this in Scenario Editor, nevertheless there are port tiles (in my opinion) as seen in screenshot above!

Since no new opinions were written, you all have probably right and I my peace...!
Yes, of course, they were Rail Stations-Tiles, sure...! LOL!

They looks like as ports but they are used as train stations.

Okay, thx uhu!

I think the designer of the tiles was drunk at a port-tavern when he had designed the tiles, but he thought he is at a Trainstation-Tavern, otherwise I can not explain it! LOL!

well I guess the design decision was done based on the fact that in some scenarios you have to put trains in there, and the circular shape makes it kind of look like an open space waiting to receive something and the train fits nicely in there... I guess hehe

That could explain it!
