Era 3 Mission 18 (Mega City)

[Bjarkovski]

Bonust task: Station

Create a crowded stations value of 80%


Is the game pulling my leg here? I have now restarted the load 7 or 8 times but still it will not let me get to the next step!

under 80% not 80%. reduce platform lenghts. use less vehicles,...
the ratio goes from 0% overcrowded stations to 100% uncrowded stations. you need 20%+ overcrowded stations (with ! lose icon) to reach under 80%.

It does not say under 80% is says "value of 80%"

In Huperspace we trust, I guess.

Read the actual script, what does it say? Those little 2 word quest hints are not the best, but they assume you read the paragraph that also comes with it. The 2 word quest thing is fine as it is, because we don't want a full 5 sentences on our screen all the time.

Adding a simple "under" in between "of" and "80%" would make all the defference and would npt add a full 5 sentence. There is no point of having the 80% showing if that is not the target.

There are some real nonsense objectives in the campaign, but this one really takes the cake. It took me almost an hour of arbitrarily destroying and deleting stuff to make this trigger, to the point where I deleted everything down to just one remaining passenger line.

This game is really stupid with its campaign and tasks. In every campaign there is at least one BS and at least 2 things I had to google to find what to do.

Indeed the most stupid quest was saved to the last mission. 80% of what?

BTW you don't need to sell vehicles just stop trains and trams (maybe some busses) and wait the percentage to go lower.

I did this mission a few times. The 80 % side mission is simply to overcrowd your stations / stops, including the cargo stations. So simply use less vehicles per line. Reduce the stations platforms, and when it start to overcrowded, the number will change.

I am aware that the explanation is not very clear in the game.

BTW, I notice the Company score is check, .... well .... even you got the 80 % side mission, you will get the money part very quick and the mission will end, and not able to finish the tower in time. I recommend to reduce the Company Score .... check your company HQ data and try not to exceed the company score that will end the mission early, just increase the company score AFTER you finish the Tower. By over the company score in the HQ data with the mouse, you will see a list of points.

Opps ... sorry .... I did not notice it was an old tread.

TpF campagins leave a little to be desired, hoping that on TpF 3 they will focus on company growth rather than some random tasks, some trivial, and some a major pain in the back like this one, that have little to do with the game core features or even to real life.

Description of some missions are so vague or misleading.
