-Paris B is missing in Benelux Expres bonus

-Rome L: border with Rome K is missing


Those xml errors fixed now. I have also checked the file in Jota's xml tool and KevinC's tool.

Please have another look over the xml when you get a chance with fresh eyes.

No mistakes found any more now.


Thanks Forza AZ

Sucks doesn't it!!

I've not looked at the XML tbh.. it's fairly straight forward I imagine - so no crazy logic in this one!!

Cairns I checked your XML (in Lanyards absence)

One thing I haven't checked is the co-ordinates...

But otherwise - there is 1 error...

IRN Irun F <-> MRS Marseille F

These 2 territories border each other in the XML - but not on the images.

(Note IRN Irun E <-> MRS Marseille E - do and should border themselves)

If you can fix that - then I say this XML is good.

on the small map only, the font in the instructions is much better than before. in the bonus legend, i still can't distinguish athe letter i from the letter l in most cases: the main reason i know which is which is that there is no such word as "Rall". is there a different font u can use? on the large map, this is not an issue.

for line E, can u use an à in train à grande vit'e?

http://www.tgv.co.uk/tgv.asp

for line J, it is now called orient express, having dropped the 1919 from early on. i have virtually no knowledge of the orient express lines, so just wanted to ensure that u're happy with the names and there is no confusion.

otherwise, it's all good!

ian, i would prefer it to go as is now, if there are too many complaints i will change it, as with the TGV request below.

please read back through this thread to see where all the orient express lines were discussed. i am perfectly happy with these, having constructed them from an original timetable.

EDIT\\\ Ian, i have added the à to TGV name. but after investigation using the arial font that is in the legend on the Rail line names in small map does not work well for the i & l adjacent, so i will leave it as the verdana font.

Perhaps Rail USA was a good testing ground, although it does not seem to be a popular map...very low play rate. :(
I'd be interested to see if this one fairs any better.
