I once found a weird bug in this game. I made a LOT of money, and suddenly my account got negated. So my amount of money went from a very high sum, to a very high debt. :blink:

I solved it by loading my last saved game, and build a lot of tunnels and other expensive stuff, so my money never got to the turn arround amount.

Yes, that is a quite famous error in the way the game handles numbers. If a number gets too high it turns negative, this can be used to your advantage by building a tunnel from one side of the map to another and getting rich quick

Transport Tycoon Deluxe can be installed under XP with this Patch: www.ttdpatch.net. It also has features the Game missed before. No Emulator is needed with the Patch. I also recommend the DB Set and all the other Stuff you can use with the Patch.

Would this be a good game for me (a Railroad Tycoon ORIGINAL nut)

What does it add and/or expand on?

Or should I get Rails 2 or 3?

Transport tycoon is not only about trains. In transport tycoon you can also use busses, planes and ships. One of the games I have used most time on in my life, is Railroad Tycoon 1, and I liked this game very much. There are some flaws in the game, there is no doubt about that, but overall it's a cool game.

BTW I played railroad tycoon II also, which I also think is pretty good. k:

Transport Tycoon best way to make cash fast at the beginning is undoubly going railroad.

The first few games I played I used mainly road trucks and transport, but it was extremely slow to improve the cash balance. Was very interesting for me tough.
