Possible bug with stations

Post by mardrof »

Hi everyone,
I play TTRE on BGA so often and it is another time when the game didn't count my ticket as done. As you can see on the screenshot, I placed station in Bucuresti (blue player) and road from Smyrna to Sofia has been marked as not done. Only ticket from Edinburgh to Athina has been counted. Could someone explained what's wrong here? In my opinion both tickets should be counted as done

No, you are wrong. The station that you placed in Bucuresti can either be used for Bucarest-Kiev or for Bucarest-Sofia - not both.

Since your ticket Edinburgh-Athens is more valuable than the ticket Smyrna-Sofia the station was correctly used in your favor (automatically). If you want the points for the small ticket you would lose the pounts for the large ticket.

Per the rules of TtR: Europe:
A train station allows its owner to use one, and only one, of the routes belonging to another player, into (or out of) that city to help him connect the cities on his destination tickets.
Your Station was "used up" to connect Bucuresti to Kyiv, because that completed a larger ticket. A station can complete multiple tickets if they're using the same route of someone else's line. In your case, you needed another station, either in Kyiv or Sofia.
