Title: Touhou Railroad Tycoon 3 Map
Post by: Pergold on October 08, 2017, 08:57:22 PM
Gensokyo RT3 Map

Over the weekend I have cobbled together a map of Gensokyo in Railroad Tycoon 3, the scenario involves the construction of a railway amongst the different locals of the Touhou Project series.

PLOT:
Gensokyo is a land severed off from the rest of the world by the Great Hakurei Barrier. However, goods and [human] people are having difficulty navigating Gensokyo safely and as such ~*~~*~~*~the economy~*~~*~~*~ suffers. This is where you come in. To win Bronze, you have to connect six cities (locations) within 30 years; to win Silver, you have to transport 1,500 loads of passengers; to win Gold, you'll have to connect all 21 cities and haul 900 loads of goods within 25 years.

LIBERTIES TAKEN:
In order to facilitate the Touhou world within a Railroad Tycoon 3 map, some creative liberties had to be taken. Single buildings have become cities (Alice's House, Marisa's House, Kourindou, and Hakurei Shrine to name a few), to not make the map as barren, new locations had to be made (Oni Village and Gappy Settlement), and Hakugyokurou and Senkai are now in Higan. Also Gensokyo now has industry (because its Railroad Tycoon 3, it'd be boring if it was all farms). Despite the minimum start date being 1885, locations that haven't existed before their respective games are anachronistically present.

EVENTS AND MAP INFO:
The minimum start date is 1885 (Gensokyo's creation) and the maximum start date is 2015, but the default is 1955. Events happen from time to time (and more will be added with each new update of this map), the currently available ones is when you connect the Human Village (which increases passengers), connect Kappa Valley (You can choose between getting the F3, decreased load\unload times, increased locomotive speed and pulling power or increased reliability),
 connecting the Moriya and Hakurei shrines (you have a choice of supporting either shrine: supporting the Moriya Shrine gives you cheaper locomotives and the Hakurei Shrine gives you cheaper stations), connecting Hakugyokurou increases the prices of all food cargo ('cause Yuyuko). From time to time, Eiki Shiki will come about in a randomized event (you can either bribe her with 250K of your own money or listen to her, which lowers productivity for a year). The locomotives that are available are a mix of Asian, European, and American locomotives (so you can get the A1 Pacific, a GG1, and the Shinkanshen to name a few). As of Version 2, Youkai Incidents can randomly happen with a negative effect (Reduced Passengers\Factory productivity, having to pay Reimu), Also newspaper pop-ups will appear around the times of certain events (The creation of the Great Hakurei Barrier, events of the Windows games).

Updates will be made and suggestions for improvements and content is appreciated. I also have plans to make more RT3 maps (such as one about Former Hell or a repurposed Gensokyo map)

Here is some gameplay footage of the map: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiHAXY-gAOA&t=79s (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiHAXY-gAOA&t=79s)

So here are a few things appearing in the next update:

I'm still open to suggestions, especially for location ideas as the map (relative to its size) is quite spare with cities.

So even though its odd to make a Touhou themed RT3 map  for the minority of people (as far as you guys are concerned) who have this game, I have made  a strategy guide for this map.



Here are also some tips:

I'm still working on the next update (which contains heavy rebalancing)

Version 3 of the map is now active. On top off the stuff previously mentioned on the last post. The goals have been reduced again and a fatal flaw in the event programming has been fixed! (You can ACTUALLY beat the map!) I know not many of you have RT3, but I figure this would be a cool fan-thing. Its unorthodox but cool.

I've also added support for more engines including some included in mod and the fanmade 1.06 update.

This is such a specific thing, and it's what I love about the touhou fandom. I actually love early 2000s tycoon games but I've never played railroad tycoon 3. This might inspire me to pick it up on the next steam or gog sale.

If you do pick it up, if you have Vista\8\10 then you have to put in a thing to keep it from crashing, but that can be done pretty quick and easy. Here's the link: http://hawkdawg.com/rrt/rrt3/Xtras/ (http://hawkdawg.com/rrt/rrt3/Xtras/)

My next Touhou Railroad Tycoon 3 will be "The Former Hell Electrification Project" and it will be about making shipments to power the nuclear furnace.
