Dispatcher office invallid configuration

[Dude_Where_Is_My_Cat]

Hello,

when placing the dispatcher office (to get freight) says invallid configuration on the top right corder when i place it. Inside borders and outside borders and on all stations.

What am i doing wrong?

There is a message shown when you open its Configuration using V button.

It should say something like the station does not operate any of your unlocked red contracts. E. g. you unlocked Freights only but the stations where you built are not servicing Freights. Check the stations by opening their Configuration using V button.

Thank you for your reply.

After your message i did check with the V button. I am playing on Osaka and at the station Osaka it does say its supports the contracts. But when i go to the dispatchers office it says "No currently unlocked red traffic type is operated by this station".

To me its confusing, because:
1: The station does support the red traffic
2: I clearly unlocked it (otherwise i wouln't be able to place the office)

How do I solve this?

Osaka station don't service Freigths, I believe. So if you don't have regionals unlocked, you will get the message above.

1. It supports red traffic (regional and urban), but not freight.
2. You unlock the Dispatcher Office both on one-off Freigths and Regional trains.

To me it also took a while to discover that not all stations are able to generate freight, and that I have to check the station details what KIND of red missions it can generate, and that I simply cannot bind the office with ANY station. It wasn't obvious from the construction description and sadly this item doesn't have a tutorial mission, which would make it clear.

In the upcoming Update 18 we added

NEW: Contract icons placeable in the station and dispatcher office configuration views that will show which contracts will be generated
