Station catching area corrupted #7198
Comments
Total catchment area is not quite as you'd imagine from the visualisation of a single station part's catchment area. The "base" station area is the orthogonal bounding box for all station parts (i.e. min and max X/Y bounds), and the catchment radius around that is the largest radius for any one station part. Meaning if you place an international airport outside a city, and then link a single bus stop to it, up to 16 tiles away (or however settings are set), that bus stop will not just have the same catchment radius as the airport, but all the empty tiles between the two parts will also be considered. |
Short version: if you add a dock to a station, all station tiles get a radius of 5, not just the dock tiles. |
Can drawing of the catchment area be improved in such a way, that allows to see the real area of the station? May be some button "show catchment area"? |
i believe someone tried that on the forum once, but gave up when he noticed this discrepancy |
Is it documented on the wiki (with pictures like nielsmh's)? |
Extensively and for years and under a clear title: https://wiki.openttd.org/Catchment_area |
There are several patches and patchpacks that have a "Show catchment are" feature. |

Station should not get food from industry
Looks like station catching area is calculated not as shown, but a ship station (the ship station is connected, but on the other side)
