1 About
-------
This NewGRF adds tracks to OpenTTD, based on the systems used in The Netherlands.
It contains all major tracktypes, including a futuristic one.
It is designed to work with the Dutch Train Set (v2), but will also work for
other train sets that follow the used labeling scheme.

2.3 Parameter settings
----------------------
Set the parameters before starting a new game.
Once started they cannot be changed any longer.
Currently the following parameters are available:
-Speed limits: Can be set on or off. Default value is on.
This parameter allows you to disable track speed limits
On: Speedlimits
Off: No speedlimits
-Track types: Has 3 possible values.
This parameter sets the different main track types
0: Non-electrified, DC, AC and Metro (Default)
1: Non-electrified, electrified and Metro (No AC/DC distinction)
2: Non-electrified and electrified (No AC/DC/Metro distinction)
-Level crossings for X: Can be set on or off.
Default value for Metro is on, for HSL/Betuwe/Futuristic is off.
These parameters allows you to enable/disable
level crossings for these two track groups.
On: Level crossings can be build
Off: Level crossings cannot be build

3 Known issues
--------------
Grey tracks when playing with reserved tracks displayed:
When playing with the setting to displaying reserved tracks on, some tracks might
look weird when reserved. This has to do with the way sprites are defined.
OpenTTD uses the overlay sprites for junctions, but uses a greyed/darkened
version of the same sprites for reserved tracks. This will cause some partial
grey third rail and grey tracks.
Metro graphics 3rd rail doesn't connect properly:
In some cases (the 3rd rails don't connect properly to each other. This is because
of the order OpenTTD draws the sprites. OpenTTD draws a part of the rail/tile
over the 3rd rail, creating a gap.
Incorrect trains available in OpenTTD <r24272
In OpenTTD r24272 the loading of labels for tracks and engines was changed.
These labels identify the tracks and the engines use those labels to identify on
which tracks they can run. In OpenTD <r24272 the order of NewGRF's was important,
giving small errors like trains available for the wrong tracktype. Either update
OpenTTD or load the Track Set before any Train set.
Strange introduction dates of the tracks
Due to the way track introductions are done in NewGRFs, it is not possible to have
an advanced scheme that would work perfectly. Therefore, it was choosen to make sure
all tracks that should become available become available during the game, although
it might happen that this is several years before/after their real introduction.

------------------------
4 Background information
------------------------
The aim of this set is to provide Dutch based tracks to OpenTTD.
While many tracks have slight variations in properties only the
best properties have been choosen to limit the amount of tracks.

5 Frequently Asked Questions
----------------------------
Q: Why is it not possible to place different tracks on one tile?
A: This is an OpenTTD limitation.

Always included a detailed description of the bug, preferrably with
screenshot, savegame and steps to reproduce. Also state the exact
game version you're using, as well as the version of this NewGRF.
Please try to reproduce in a minimal configuration, with only this
NewGRF loaded in a recent version of OpenTTD.
If you have a savegame that includes NewGRFs not available on OpenTTD's
Online Content, then please try to reproduce the bug in a new game
which has all NewGRFs easily accessible.
If you're using a patched version of the game, please try to reproduce
the bug on an official game build. If you can't reproduce the bug, then
don't report it here but in the forum topic of the patch(pack) instead.
