TRAIN SET
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You are in control of a railway network. There are four trains
waiting in their sidings for their instructions. Each train is a
certain colour and it is required to pick up mail of the same colour.
The trains are controlled by the sliders on the softpanel. They each
have four speeds, stop and reverse positions. You have to guide each
train onto the network by use of the speed sliders.
The junctions can be cycled through their three positions by
clicking on them.
At the start of each level each train is given a set time to
complete it task. This is indicated by the white dot on the side of
each slider. As time passes the levels drop until a train will
automatically start itself looking for its mail without your orders !!
When a mail sack is picked up so the train is given a few more
minutes to add to its own schedule. If a train tries to pick up a
different colour mail sack then the train is exploded for security
reasons. This will lose you a driver and also destroy the railway
section making it unpassable. This could have a drastic effect on your
mission.
When a train has compleated its work a siren will sound and the
train can be sent back to it shed where it will be safe until the
next level.
If two trains should crash then its game over.
If you run out of drivers then its game over.
After every level you are awarded another driver.
There are seven track layouts to get through after which they wrap
around with new missions and less time.
