Snapshot or sync folder?

Which is the best way to backup your data? I assumed the sync with onedrive was the best but on further reading it looks like this might actually be for using the app across multiple devices? And the snapshot function is how you download data back to your device if you lose it somehow?

API error when uploading a save?

What causes the water pollution texture to overlap like this?

I've not seen it before, and today it has appeared. I did reinstall the Voodoo patch after that pesky Windows update stopped the game from working. But I can't see any settings that could affect this.

A days worth of unfogging vanished?

I loaded the app, and I could see a long drive I went on today. There was a slight gap, I tried to edit the track to fix it. Before I had even changed anything the app crashed. When I loaded it, all of today's paths had vanished!

What is the best way to cover a new region with trees?

I've used the new DLL mod to render all the tiles. But do I have to load each one still to plan trees or is there a way to generate them across a region too?

What line thickness do you use?

I was tempted to be hard-core and use extra thin, however I don't think the location accuracy is accurate enough to have it so thin, so I kept it on medium so it's accurate but not within such a small margin.

Do you record your flights?

I've just joined Fog of World and I can see a lot of people do, but I didn't know if that would be 'cheating'. I have seen that you can apparently also download the paths online and then upload them to your map on a separate layer. I wasnt sure if I wanted to record visits to countries I've not actually visited hmmmm.

Does anyone else NOT enjoy building HSR?

After adding a few high speedines to my map I've come to the realisation that I don't actually enjoy building them! It takes ages to find the right route to avoid budings and tight curves and it also massively imbalances the path finding pulling half the population into a single line which is impossible to fix after! Does anyone else avoid HSR?

Cold call from Sky that gave me Sky Cinema for free and a cheaper bill!?

I took what I assumed was a scam call, after given a fake name and address to test them, I realised it was real and said "oops sorry my name and address is...." anyway - this call resulted in me getting £5 per month off my bill and Sky Cinema included! I thought it was a joke, but apparently not! It's a new 2 year contract. Anyone else had something similar?

Can you save the basemap settings?

Whenever I load Google Earth (the web version not the desktop pro app) it is always on the same setting showing highways and a few other things. I set up a custom view, but if I close the tab and open it again, its back to the default view again!

I know my BF is sexting on Grindr, but he doesn't know that I know.

I've had two friends show me his profile and photos he has sent unknowingly to my friends blank profiles! My friends were horrified and told me with the expectation that I'd end the relationship immediately. I was upset, I felt sick when I found out. However, it was also clear that he wasn't actually meeting these guys. He seemed to be using Grindr just like watching porn when having a wank. A few dirty messages and photos back and forth and that's it.

Am I mad for accepting this? We are NOT in an open relationship, and if he met /slept with someone else then I'd end it. He does have a higher sex drive than me and I know I don't satisfy him in that context, so I do feel like it's 'unfair' that I deny him sex and then monitor what he does when he had a wank.

What do you do for station names in countries with a different alphabet like China?

My huge map finally reached Russia and Asia, but I've encountered a problem with station names! With European countries, at least those that use the Latin alphabet I can workout what to call a station fairly easily even if I don't understand the language. But now I'm about to build a metro in Beijing - all I can think of is Google maps on one screen and NimbyRails in the other? At least it's uses the English translation and I can copy and paste the road names hmmmm.... What do other people do?
