If you want a more efficient network, try placing the stations on curves of 90 degrees or more (including straight lines of course). Stations on curves below 90 degrees must be stopped at, even if they have no people waiting (this is to mimic the fact that in real life trains can't complete such a sharp turn at a station without braking). If you use only obtuse angles the trains can pass through without needing to stop Love the video!

Interchange also has a higher transfer rate than regular stations, so people go in and out of trains quicker.

I'm glad you've taken comment advice to heart :) Some more advice, you can always throw trains around. If they're on the yellow line, you can move them to a different station on the yellow line, or a different coloured line entirely. It's a cheap way to stop timers from running

You're now almost as good as me, despite you having played a lot less, so I only have two pieces of advice that you may follow if you choose: 1) Train lines crossing each other anywhere other than at a station will slow down any train at the crossing. It can sometimes be the right thing to do anyway, but it's something to be aware of. 2) It can be handy to keep one line and train in reserve to quickly fix an overcrowding station. Place the line, let the train load and depart, erase the line. The train will continue to its destination, and then return to your pool of placeable things. The downside is that you're using one fewer lines on an ongoing basis than you technically have available.

@jenschafer269

Жыл бұрын

With the second one, keeping an extra tunnel free as well makes this strategy more flexible.

One more tip: loop lines must travel in single direction because travelers only choose the shortest route. If a loop only travels in one direction, they have no choice but to board the train.

Maybe when you start to have bad congestion at certain stations, it's time to delete the lines and rework them again? Once you start getting a lot of stations on the board, you'll be able to make more efficient routes by removing the lines and making new ones :)

There’s not enough lines to re-create the tube map though, surely? And don’t new stations keep being generated?

for lines vs carriages you have to keep in mind, carriages increase your capacity, while lines only improve your shape organisation. you need a healthy mix of both. also circlular lines arent strictly better, you can control which stations get frequented more or less with non-circular lines, while on circular ones all get frequented equally.

Tip: in the late game you can just pause and redo everything.

Hey RCE, if you make all the angles on your line at stations 90⁰ or greater, your trains won't stop at a station with no passengers. Also, the big triangle increases transfer speed so it can load/unload faster

If I have an extra line, I always try to make a line that connects all the random shapes (so one of each shape on the line) but is the shortest line (so it's like the fast track of getting to every shape on the map). But try to make sure it connects into as many other lines as possible as well!

You actually can undo a train. If you delete the line, the train returns to your arsenal after unpause and let the train empty out

keep redoing the whole map trying to have one of every common shape on each line. then with the rare shapes make them the interchanges between lines and have them as apart of each line. also have the trains at opposite sides of the circut going tip to tail( Both in the same direction e.g.both going clockwise)

I play this game too and I feel like connecting all rare shapes with an additional line is very efficient
