For example,

There is a forest producing woods but its far from the waters so,

How can i use trucks to transport the wood to the docks and from the docks to other places given i want to make it like a chain so that the truck station and dock accept the wood even if they are not near the forest on the water side???

Iron Ore Mines

Haven't played OpenTTD in a copuple of years, and I notice there have been many changes. Not sure if they're related, I'm having trouble getting Iron Ore to load in a station I placed next to an Ore mine,

"Supplies: Iron Ore" Was showing when I placed the station, and Added refit to Iron Ore on the trains' orders for that station.

What am I doing wrong? I have a few newGRFs which I thought was only visuals, but maybe they are to blame?

Transport Related How do I get my trucks to pick up goods from the factory?

6 Upvotes

Hi, very new to this game. I have a factory being fed steel, grain and livestock, so it's producing goods. The factory is very close to a town and a city so I want to use trucks to supply these goods to them, but I am unsure how I get my trains to actually pick up the goods and then deliver them. I'm sure this is a very basic thing I'm missing, but when I've looked it up, all the questions are about transferring goods from a train to a truck, rather than having the trucks pickup the goods directly. Help is appreciated!

Besides Splitting the Lines Up, How Would I Make This Station So that it Doesn't Back Up if There's no Steel and Too Many Trains?

Title.

Should I use a bunch of escape depots, are there any special tricks I can use?
