Thanks for the bonus episode, I'm absolutely thrilled that you've decided to start a Transport Fever Series! Looking forward to seeing Lone Butte Co. make connections throughout the land.

There is a Tool to Switch the catenary on and of, you don’t need to rebuild it always. And you don’t need to put signals directly behind the stations, they have invisible ones build in.

Watching you play this game is an interesting tug of war with the pros and cons of Skylines. I feel pretty spoiled by the incredible flexibility of things you can achieve in CSL with the mods available, now. But there's a few things that just take a ridiculous amount of work even with mods, and it looks like this game does a few of them right. Rail management in general looks so much less finicky, between the smooth junctions and nice narrow elevated sections. I guess that's not surprising since so much of the game is about rail, but it's quality of life stuff I've always wanted in CSL. The texture painting is straight up amazing. It's difficult to articulate how much easier it would be to make good looking maps in CSL if you could just paint stuff instead of trying to cheat with resources and decals. If a Move It doppleganger comes out of this game, that'd be a huge incentive for me. But I hope the workshop develops some variety for the town architecture as well. The current buildings look ... fine, but they're kind of bland and don't have much sense of location. Anyway, I'm glad you went with the arid American frontier look for this series. Spices it up a little :) And that river is going to look so much better by the time you're done working on it, haha.

Holy signal Batman. Unless you're one day imagining seeing a train between every signal segment, there is no need to have that many. Keeps the drivers on their toes I guess.

I already know that when this episode pops up in my subscription box I will first be very happy about the new episode, sadly realize that I already watched and then watch it anyways.

Thanks for the end of the video secret link. I guess I'm gonna stay up for 30 more minutes now.

you can also make your rail junctions shorter by building the track over to the last track and when you click on the part the in between tracks meet you can double cross them

If you using brush to paint stone there is an option to prevent collision so you can put the stone right in the pillar..

Glad to see you start a TPF2 series, looking forward to see more episodes in the future. I have a tip regarding rail and road placement, if you're going to have a railroad crossing lay the track first. If you try to drag a rail line through the road it will try to awkwardly cross the road and stay level. (Like what happened around 2:20 into the episode)

5:00 You can build the main part first with PgUp across the river, that way it will be horizontal and flat, and then connect the two ends each

I really did enjoy the first episode and what do you know, we got an amazing gift. Best hour of my life well spent ^_^

Oh no, just saw the "new" upload and then was disappointed that I had already seen it :c But again, great Episode!

11:08 to have a flat bridge you need a flat part after your ramp and use the arrow it will be more easy

There is a mod to build bridges without pillars. You can then build your own pillars with another asset mod for several different walls. I don't know the names for both of them but they're on steam. Also you can change the game config file with notepad so that generated roads won't be curved but that would need a restart of the map.

1) If you turn the contour lines on, you can "see" under water. From that you can level your ground and even trace rail/road a bit more easily. 2) Being a fan and player of CSL and TF2 and a HUGE fan of yours, I'm very interested to see how you deal with some of the big restrictions in the this game. Let the frustrations begin.

@Strictoaster. Are you aware that you can start building tracks at a particular height or depth with the "," and "." keys? They also can be used in combination with the "Shift" key for fine tuning. This way you can build perfect flat bridges or tunnels, and afterwards the slopes. A little warning... Take care that the spot where you start build your bridge be also perfect flat with the terrain tool else your bridge can have a little slope at the beginning...

You could have gone higher with your tunnel at the interchange. if you notice while doing the tunnel, at the end of your cursor there is an arrow pointing at a 45 degree angle. If you clicked on that, it would have raised the level of the track, allowing you to carry the tunnel further.

haha! Secret link made my day!! Thanks

Now I want to buy this game. Thank you Strictoaster for making me spend money.

this was great

Looks nice. I would love to be able to place rail side by side like that in CS. After the first episode I was thinking it ended too soon, but then the secret link gave me the extra bit I wanted. :)

Hey man. Dont die a little inside cuz the farms not align. Your in sandbox mode. Delet one and build a new so they do align ;)

Also when creating switches tend to more easy connect when zoomed in very close...

These videos are so great! Do you think you could make the same video but commentated in Spanish to put on your other channel! It would be so cool to learn Spanish through you and your quality videos.

I havent played Transport Fever 2 myself yet. But if they haven't changed the AI too much, you should probably make sure to not have non-oneway-signals one the same track face each other. Trains get stuck that way a ton. At least they used to in the older games.

I watched this video twice it's so satisfying to watch the trains, also i noticed you food train which delivering food to the city runs on left track i guess... that triggered my ocd at the end... please change it to right. Thank you

When you are doing switches put the parallel track in first then run the switch from the main track to the parallel instead of the way you are doing it. I get the full 75mph that way.

Secret link hype! :D

So sneaky 😂

Also can you add some music like in your other projects? Much appreciated!

Yay Secret Link Gang assemble!

If you have not field in any of many, download mod from workshop (i don`t remember where i find it, but i used it exactly)

I honestly think simi valley should be renamed to cedar valley

there is a way to get 4 times bigger maps, makes much more fun

Just one ask Why you don't use the level control when you build track ?

It has to be very refreshing to upload different game than CSL which does not need about 10+ more hours to put everything together (gameplay, recording, editing, commentary, uploading). :) Looking forward to other videos.

there should go back bottom in case we making mistakes

Whooohooo :D

Super secret

Made me look :)

Episodes are going a bit slow, for 34 min you just connected 2 farms

Yes finely a sevens episode when start the realistic build mabye a idea the Netherlands

Yay ^^

Want more episodes :33

have you ever thought about playing railroad tycoon 2?

Hidden link :D

Does anybody know the map and the theme Strictoaster is using?

You're using a bit too many train 'semafors' to be honest ;) Otherwise quite an inspirative video, looking forward to see you get the grip on the game

Hmmm i didn’t like the island thing... maybe just leave with the pillars

Hey stric! Cool stuff you play TF2 now. There are many things you dont know yet but you will get the hang of it. I think this game is perfect for you! Its the perfect simbiosis of CS and OpenTTD. Small tipp for building tracks/roads. When you drag them and you want to have them perfectly flat you can left click this little arrow (in the box right next to the accept button). it will toggle between flat and hill mode. I know this vid is in german but have a short watch and look at how crazy you can build in TF2: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7R-bNxhrZzSZX0.html Wish you the best

Turn off anti-aliasing, it's not worth it
